MONTREAL - Who to tip and how much?
That's the burning question in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
The hairdresser, the barber, the manicurist, the doorman, the parking lot attendant and the dog walker are all expecting a little something before the holidays.
So is your personal trainer, the workers at your children's daycare and your favourite bartender.
Etiquette experts say a token of appreciation to service providers is a nice gesture and good business. It is at once a thank you for past services and an incentive for future favours.
But Nancy Kosik, a certified etiquette and protocol expert in Montreal, said people stress needlessly over the Christmas tip. It's not meant to be a financial transaction, nor a performance review. What a holiday tip is supposed to be, she suggests, is a gift to someone who has provided you with great service all year. A thank you to somebody who has gone the extra mile, or has been kind or helpful, or unfailingly professional. Like the doorman who agrees to water your plants when you are on vacation. Or a barista who gets your coffee started when he sees you coming down the block in the morning. Or a hairdresser who squeezes you in at the last minute when you let your hair go too long.
"Just because it is the holidays doesn't mean you have to be tipping everyone you come in contact with," Kozik said. "It is meant for people with whom you have built up a business relationship.
"It says thank you for being reliable. And it says I appreciate you and everything you do for me."
Whether it's destined for a teacher, a cleaning person or your condo building's concierge, Kosik suggests giving the tip in person with a card and a handwritten note attached. In such institutions as banks or daycare centres or nursing homes, where gifts to individuals are disallowed, or where a team of people has provided the service rather than an individual, Kosik suggests sending a gift that can be shared, like chocolates or sweets.
Giving year-end tips is especially important for people who are prone to tardiness or who have a habit of changing appointments at the last minute. In these cases, the tip says thank you, but also "sorry for the trouble."
How much to give? That depends how much you can afford, how often the service is provided and how many "extras" the person has extended, Kosik says. Her rule of thumb when tipping people you tip throughout the year is to double the usual tip at Christmas time. Kosik says she'd give $25 to a hairdresser she normally gave $7 to $14, for example.

Software-analysis tools company GrammaTech has announced a static-analysis tool for analyzing binary libraries and executables.

- Defense Against the Dark Arts
- Big Data and Customer Interaction Analytics: How To Create An Innovative Customer Experience
CodeSonar for Binaries works by examining software for security vulnerabilities and malicious code, without the need for source code. It pulls off this trick because the technology does not rely on debug or symbol-table information, so it can examine the stripped executables normally shipped by software vendors.
As a result, CodeSonar for Binaries can perform a security analysis on software without any cooperation from the vendor.
The analysis engine is the result of a 10-year collaboration between GrammaTech and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, involving 21 experts in program analysis and $15 million in research and development (R&D).
"While many software-analysis tools exist, nearly all require source code. Yet end users seldom have access to the source code. CodeSonar for Binaries empowers end users by enabling them to perform a security audit on executables," said Mark Zarins, VP of sales and marketing at GrammaTech. "It analyzes the software that users actually run — the specific machine code to be run on the processor. As a result, CodeSonar for Binaries can detect problems introduced not only by programmers, but also by the compiler and other tools in the development chain."
Market research firm Gartner predicts that "By 2017, IT supply chain integrity will be identified as a top three security-related concern by Global 2000 IT leaders." Gartner's October 2012 report entitled, "Living in a World Without Trust: When IT's Supply Chain Integrity and Online Infrastructure Get Pwned," outlines the impact of, and extent to which, IT supply chains will be under attack and impaired in the future. According to Gartner, "The use of contaminated software in the creation of a finished software offering, whether inadvertent or intentional, is conceptually no different than the use of contaminated meat to create hamburgers. Both result in a final product that is compromised from creation."
"Disassembly tools have been available for analyzing binaries, but analyzing low-level machine code manually, or even with scripts, is extremely time consuming and not really a scalable approach to identifying vulnerabilities," said Paul Anderson, VP of engineering at GrammaTech. "CodeSonar for Binaries makes it easy to examine large executables rapidly. Furthermore, the tool is fully integrated with GrammaTech's source-code analysis technology, allowing customers to analyze projects that are a combination of source and binary code."

Jens Pulver
Training: A typical day would be my conditioning in the AM, followed by wrestling or striking drills, depending on the day. At night, we go live two hours - some days striking, some days grappling. All in all, it's about six to seven hours a day.
When and why did you start training for fighting? Jens started wrestling at six years old. He was a state champion wrestler in high school and also wrestled for Boise State before injuries forced him off the team. He started training in boxing as a junior in high school. At twenty years old he started training Jiu-Jitsu and began competing in matches at local gyms. In the late 90's, Pulver started fighting in mixed martial arts and made his pro debut in April of 1999. He entered the UFC five months later.
How has your training changed since coming into the WEC? It hasn't. I still work as hard as ever.
Most memorable professional fight (who, where, why)? Caol Uno, Atlantic City, for the UFC world title, because it launched everything. The weight class, we were launching as the new UFC, so it was pretty incredible to be a part of all that.

In individual cases, Garmin Würzburg will notify the licensee of the network license fee he is required to pay as soon as the licensee has given a written notification of his intent of network integration and the number of connected users. The operation in such a network or multiple workstation computer system is permitted only after full payment of the network license fee.

A right to modify or convert is not included.
7.2 Garmin Würzburg receives any geographical data (e.g. maps), provided as a component of the software, from third parties. In some cases, geographical data can be inaccurate or incomplete.

The data is usually not older than six (6) months, but depending on the geographic area may also be up to 12 months old. Exceptions are specifically mentioned in the product description.

D. Special Provisions for the Use of NAVIGON select
1 General
In cooperation with mobile operators and manufacturers of mobile phones, Garmin Würzburg offers the possibility of licensing a special version of the free software "mobile navigator" for selected mobile phones (hereinafter designated as "NAVIGON select"). As far as the customer makes use of NAVIGON select via their mobile network provider or mobile phone manufacturer, the following additional licensing provisions for software apply:
2 Duration of the Software License
The general license period is limited to 12 months. It is linked to the mobile phone. It will automatically be extended indefinitely, if the customer, in addition to the free license, has purchased and activated further functions that are subject to charges. If the customer terminates the contract with the mobile phone provider prior to the end of the license period, the license ends automatically even if he has previously purchased further functions, subject to charge. Individual mobile phone providers and manufacturers may offer extended licensing provisions for the benefit of the customer. This is indicated in the respective Special Provisions. The service "Traffic Live" is provided during the general service life of a navigation system (PND) or mobile phone. Usually, this amounts to two years. A longer running time than the general service life is not guaranteed for the customer but in case of further usability, Garmin Würzburg will not charge for the service again.
3 Costs
NAVIGON select is usually offered without the imposition of a license fee. However, mobile phone operators cooperating with Garmin Würzburg will verify the customer's eligibility to use NAVIGON select through regular authorisation checks. During these authorisation checks, small amounts of data are transmitted from the customer's mobile phone to a verification server.

"Helloooo, ladies!"
That's the come-on intoned by the buff actor in Procter & Gamble Co.'s Old Spice commercials, imploring women to stock up on the men's grooming products for their significant others. It turns out, though, that some are stocking up for themselves.
Young women are embracing Old Spice — long known as the brand dad kept in the medicine cabinet — even as P&G's marketing continues to focus on their male peers. Sarah Olivieri, who started an "Old Spice for Women" Facebook page, said she came to the product for health reasons after searching for a deodorant that wasn't an antiperspirant. Its relatively low price and newer scents also appeal to Old Spice's fans.
"There's a lot of women out there, who, for different reasons, like to use Old Spice," said Olivieri, 33, who runs a media company in Rifton, N.Y.
The brand's female inroads represent a small positive for P&G's struggling beauty division, which accounts for about 23 percent of the Cincinnati-based company's revenue. The unit's sales declined 2 percent in the six months that ended Dec. 31 from the year-earlier period.
The whole industry is contending with sluggish growth over the next four years, underscoring the need to find new buyers for its wares. Sales of home-care products are forecast to rise just 2.4 percent a year from 2014 to 2018, according to Euromonitor International.
Cultivating unintended audiences is a delicate process. While pushing a brand's boundaries can fuel growth, the risk is alienating the existing market. The newfound customers also might not want to be courted directly, said Delia Passi, founder of Medelia, a firm in Hollywood, Fla., that advises corporations on selling to women.
"Once you go out with a marketing campaign around it, then it's not cool anymore," she said.
While P&G declined to comment, the company isn't discouraging its new audience. At one point, P&G posted a link to Olivieri's site on its brand page.
Other products have successfully built audiences outside the confines of their brand's target gender. Take Febreze, the odor-neutralizing line of products that's also made by P&G. While the company marketed it toward women for housecleaning, some men spray it on their clothing to delay doing laundry. In Vietnam, where the product is known as Ambi Pur, it's caught on as a deodorizing spray for the helmets worn by riders of the country's ubiquitous motor scooters.
Bag Balm, developed to soothe sore cows' udders, became a popular skin softener for humans and their dogs. Kimberly-Clark's Kleenex was initially seen as a disposable cleaning tissue.
Old Spice's trip to the female market began after an image makeover. Long associated with middle-aged men, Old Spice began a new campaign in 2010 starring actor Isaiah Mustafa as "The Man Your Man Could Smell Like." The first spot, where Mustafa advises that "anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady," has drawn 48 million YouTube views. The campaign also has ad pitches like "Smellcome to Manhood" and "Old Spice Made a Man of My Son," a commercial featuring moms spying on their kids during dates.
Emmi Casulli, 16, of Havertown, Penn., shrugs off the male-oriented marketing. She and her travel soccer team have adopted the brand's Fiji deodorant, which has a softer scent than the classic version.
"It works better than females' deodorant and it smells like a woman's deodorant," Casulli said. "So no one can really tell the difference."
Her teammate, Anna Girod, got the squad hooked on the product after trying her father's stick. She liked it so much, she bought more. Girod, 15, then looped in her friends.
"People make fun of my dad now because the whole soccer team uses it," she said.
For men, using a product that's embraced by women can carry a stigma, said Jill Avery, a senior lecturer at Harvard Business School who has studied the concept of what she calls "gender contamination."
When Porsche's Cayenne SUV became popular with women in 2003, the company "experienced a lot of outcry from its existing users," said Avery, who co-wrote a case study on the backlash. "People were unhappy that a different kind of driver would be coming into the family and the brand wouldn't mean what it did in the past."
She also points to traditional men's names such as Ashley. Once parents begin using them for girls, they tend to stop being boys' names, she said.
"A lot of the things we use are gendered," whether that's a brand or a category, Avery said. "If you think about what men are being told from a very young age, it's being masculine is the antithesis of being feminine."
If large numbers of women started using Old Spice, or if the company introduced an Old Spice for women or shifted to more unisex marketing, "you might see men leaving the brand because it doesn't convey the masculinity that it did in the past," she said. Bryan Mccleary, a P&G spokesman, declined to comment on whether P&G is developing an Old Spice women's line.
Bifurcation can work when the gender distinctions are clear, Avery said. Gillette, acquired by P&G in 2005, unveiled its Gillette for Women Venus razor in 2000, a successful move, Avery said. The brand had previously introduced an even more feminine sounding product in 1915 called Milady Decollete.
Two years ago, Unilever introduced a women's version of Axe body spray, a grooming staple for teenage boys. If the women's version catches on, "Axe is risking some of its male users, because Axe is kind of the pinnacle of masculinity in that category."
Old Spice's first product, introduced in 1937, was actually a fragrance for women. In the 24 years since P&G bought the brand from Shulton Co., Old Spice grew from a regional label with $100 million in annual sales to a global product with $500 million, according to Chief Financial Officer Jon Moeller. P&G is now extending the brand, which includes after shave, body spray and soap, into hair care.
A beauty expert touted Old Spice on the "Today" show as a product women should try. Female customers on Makeupalley.com, a product-review site, also have lauded the brand's deodorant scents and its Fiji body wash.
"Thankfully, their newer deodorants are insanely feminine, so I can smell delicious and be dry," one poster wrote. "Old Spice is a lot cheaper than women's deodorant, is clear, works better, and smells better. What's not to love?"
Old Spice's converts also may be more loyal than the brand's intended audience. That includes Olivieri's spouse, who runs the firm Big Guy Media with her.
"My husband," she said, "doesn't care what brand I buy him."

It was Sunday a couple weeks ago and, as always, I found myself at 8 a.m. in front of the TV watching one of those weekly news shows. The discussion, as always, involved the presidential race, and as I took a swallow of coffee, it occurred to me that I was completely wasting my time given that I will not be around to vote next November.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – The Blue Devils competed against 25 teams Saturday morning at the inaugural running of the Furman Cross Country Classic. Duke narrowly missed finishing second among the nine Division I opponents, recording 64 points to High Point's 63. Host Furman took first place in Division I competition with a score of 35 points. Duke opened conference competition 2-0, defeating both ACC opponents, Georgia Tech and Clemson, who scored 70 points and 153 points, respectively. The Blue Devils improved their record to 7-2 on the season against Division I opponents.
Furman University's golf course proved to be fast, with nearly every Duke runner covering the 8,000-meter distance in a personal record time. Duke finished the competition with two runners in the top 10 and seven runners in the top 21. Duke's men's cross country coach Norm Ogilvie had mixed feelings regarding the day's results.
"I thought our guys ran a little tentative today," Ogilvie said. "The times were very fast, which probably means the course was slightly short, so we can't get really excited about that. I hoped our guys would compete a little better. We didn't have our number one or three man, today. Still, it was a solid race from Brian Atkinson. Phil Fairleigh running as our number two for the first time ever was also a good race."
Senior Brian Atkinson opened his 2013 season with a sixth-place overall finish. Atkinson was the top runner for the Blue Devils, covering the 8,000-meter course in a time of 24:08.58. Junior Phil Fairleigh, the second runner to cross the line for Duke, finished ninth overall in a time of 24:14.55. Farleigh bettered his personal best time of 24:53 from last season.
Ogilvie was also pleased with the effort put forth by a pair of his young runners, sophomore William Rooney and freshman Stephen Shine. The two worked together throughout the race to finish 15th and 16th, respectively. Rooney posted a time of 24:30.50 and Shine completed his first collegiate 8,000-meter race and followed his win at the Bull City Classic with a time of 24:31.37. Rooney's time bested his personal record from last year by over two minutes.
Seniors Lucas Talavan-Becker and Christian Britto and sophomore Blake Udland also saw personal records fall Saturday morning, with Talavan-Becker racing to a time of 24:33.64, Britto running a time of 24:36.57, and Udland rounding out the top seven in a time of 24:44.73. Britto's finishing time bested his previous personal record of 24:49 and Udland significantly improved his personal record of 26:24 from a year ago. Talavan-Becker also bettered his personal record of 24:54 from two seasons ago.
Spencer Pecha (29th), Nate McClafferty (33rd), Brian Schoepfer (34th), Weston Carvalho (54th) and Aaron Liberatore (55th) rounded out the Duke contingent Saturday.
Ogilvie is looking forward to the men's cross country team's opportunity to compete in two weeks in Charlottesville, Va.
"We plan to come back with a vengeance in Virginia in two weeks."
The Blue Devils will return to action Saturday, Sept. 28, competing in the Virginia/Panorama Farms Invitational in Charlottesville, Va. The meet will provide a preview of the NCAA Southeast Regional Championship meet, held Friday, Nov. 15.

The trial of a man accused of killing three people in Dec. 2010 will resume Monday "as if it had never stopped."
The trial of a man accused of killing three people in Dec. 2010 will resume Monday "as if it had never stopped."
Camden County Circuit Court Judge Ken Hayden declared a four-and-a-half month long recess in the trial of Morris McCabe after questions of the integrity of blood evidence surfaced in the opening days of the trial. McCabe's trial began Monday, Feb. 4 and abruptly halted Feb. 5.
Prosecuting Attorney Brian Keedy said the trial will resume exactly where it left off with Dr. Keith Norton taking the stand Monday morning.
Norton handled the autopsies of Sally Amos, Donald Meyers and Donald Young, who were found shot to death on the morning of Dec. 3, 2010 at Meyers' home outside Stoutland in southeastern Camden County.
On Feb. 5, Keedy presented state exhibit 75, the DNA standard for Amos. Keedy showed Norton the card, which contains a sample of dried blood, and pointed out the initials on the card.
Norton testified that he had not in fact taken that sample of blood. He said it was probably taken at Saint Louis University, at the same time fluids were removed to complete a toxicology report.
Public defenders Beth Davis-Kerry and Dave Kenyon asked Hayden to reconsider the exhibit because of speculation of where and when the standard was made.
Keedy said Wednesday that the validity of the DNA standard had been resolved.
The DNA sample is a key piece of evidence for the prosecution. In his opening statement, Keedy alleged that blood stains on the stitching of a left glove found with Morris McCabe at the scene of his arrest contained a DNA match to Sally Amos. Without a credible DNA standard, Keedy's prime piece of evidence held no bearing in court until verification.
Keedy also said that during the course of the recess, a Verizon expert consented to testify in regards to cell phone activity allegedly proving the whereabouts of McCabe at the time of the crime.
Keedy said he felt "confident" that Hayden would reach a guilty verdict in the case.
McCabe waived his right to a jury trial in exchange for the revocation of a possible death sentence if found guilty — meaning Hayden alone will decide the verdict.
The trial of Morris McCabe will resume Monday, June 17, 2013 at 9 a.m. at the Camden County Courthouse.

A Cincinnati traffic reporter became a national sensation over the weekend after his on-air parody of the Oscar-nominated song "Let it Go" from Disney's "Frozen" became an online hit.
WKRC's Bob Herzog put his plea for drivers to stay off the city's icy streets to music for the station's Friday morning broadcast. His version of the song called "Just Don't Go," features Herzog dramatically crooning lines like: "I must share what dispatchers say, all the traction's gone. School's closed or at least they're on a delay" while images show cars skidding on icy roads.
Video of his performance has been widely shared on social media sites and media outlets nationwide since it aired. The video on Herzog's own YouTube account was just shy of 600,000 views as of Sunday evening.
Herzog said he got the idea from watching the movie with his daughter twice as well as countless YouTube viewings of the songs with her at home. He saw the perfect opportunity to change the words sung by Princess Elsa in the animated movie to a warning for viewers to stay indoors during dangerous winter weather.
The parody is part of the station's "Dance Party Fridays" in which Herzog regularly parodies popular songs to reference local traffic news. Past covers include changing Elton John's "Rocket Man" to "Traffic Man" and Tom Petty's "Free Falling" to "Tree Falling," as well as contemporary songs by Miley Cyrus and Lorde.

The Hannibal parks system is growing fast, thanks to flood buyout property that is being added. With the new acreage will come new opportunities for recreation.
The Hannibal parks system is growing fast, thanks to flood buyout property that is being added. With the new acreage will come new opportunities for recreation, according to Mary Lynne Richards, assistant supervisor for promotion and planning with the Parks Department.
"We're so excited. Because of those new properties we are going to be able to open up just some more recreational opportunities we're not able to offer now," she said. "At the Display Center we'll have a regulation-sized baseball field. That's what we're planning right now. There's not another public, regulation-sized baseball field in Hannibal."
Consideration is being given to adding an archery range on a portion of the South Main Street land, according to Richards, who stresses that is just one possibility on the land south of Bear Creek.
"It will be a big, open athletic field where we'll be able to possibly have the archery range, places for kite flying, remote controlled airplanes and just a lot of open green space. There will also be space for softball fields and soccer fields," she said, noting that because of the area being so flood prone that no permanent structures will be built.
The Parks Department's goal in coming up with uses for the new space is to be unique.
"When we talk about new things we want to offer, we don't want to duplicate what the school does or Y does. We want to provide things that aren't here. That's what the Parks Department is for, to provide recreational opportunities for everyone," said Richards.
How the new park property is used will be determined with public input in mind.
"We had a master plan done a few years ago and the No. 1 thing people wanted was more trails, so we're just kind of answering the call," said Richards.
New walking areas will be introduced in at least two areas.
"I love the idea that the Gordon Street buyout land is going to have crushed stone walkways and some trails there with possibly a wild flower garden," said Richards, who envisions markers being installed that will "provide some educational opportunities about native plants and trees along the trail." "The Gordon Street trail will have a little bit of a hill. It won't be as flat which will make it a little more interesting for people."
A walking area is also planned on the new South Main parks property.
"There will be a walking path around the whole South Main complex, so you'll be able to walk around that and get to the Bear Creek trail," said Richards. "South Main couldn't be any flatter. It will be a great place to walk. The Bear Creek trail is such a nice, little trail, but it's only a third of a mile so we'll be able to add some space with the South Main trail."
While a great deal of attention is being placed on the large parcels of land the Parks Department is inheriting, some smaller areas will be used as community gardens.
"We already have a plot of land the guys have been working on close to South Main," said Richards.
The development of the new parks properties will happen over time.
"I think it's fun to look at it now and think what it will be in a few years," said Richards.

University of Alabama astronomy professor William Keel says he's bringing out the heavy hardware for tonight's public sky viewing of the Pan-STARRS comet.
University of Alabama astronomy professor William Keel says he's bringing out the heavy hardware for tonight's public sky viewing of the Pan-STARRS comet.
"We should have a whole range of 5- to 20-inch aperture telescopes," for the viewing from 7:30-8:15 tonight at Moundville Archaeological Park, he said Thursday.
He said the telescopes, at least four of the largest in UA's astronomy department, will give viewers a good look at Pan-STARRS, which is passing within 100 million miles of Earth on the newly discovered comet's first voyage through the solar system.
The viewing at Moundville Archaeological Park is free, but Keel advises people to arrive on time.
"The window for viewing is fairly short, because the comet is so low in the sky," he said, adding that the cool weather and clear skies are ideal conditions for sky viewings.
He said that people who attend will also be able to see the planet Jupiter, various star clusters and nebulae through the lenses of the powerful telescopes.
Even if you can't make it to the Moundville park, Keel said Pan-STARRS will be visible in the western skies around Tuscaloosa at dusk.
He advises finding an area with a clean view of the western horizon, a spot free of interference from streetlights.
"The top of the parking lot at the (UA) Student Rec Center is a good spot," he said.
Keel said the comet should be visible to the naked eye, but that a pair of binoculars should provide a sharper view.
The comet's name is an acronym for the telescope in Hawaii that first spotted it two years ago: the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System.
Astronomers believe that the comet is billions of years old and originated in the Oort cloud, a cloud of icy bodies beyond the orbits of the planets Neptune and Pluto.
Keel called the Pan-STARRS' appearance a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Don't plan on ever seeing it again," he said.
But Keel said this might be a just dress rehearsal for an even brighter comet, ISON, that will be visible at the end of the year.
Russian astronomers discovered ISON in September 2012 and its name is an acronym for the International Scientific Optical Network.
Neither Pan-STARRS nor ISON pose a threat to Earth, according to scientists.
"It's been kind of a wild year for comets," Keel said.

TAUNTON — Police hope to work with city landlords to help prevent rental properties from turning into drug houses, as part of a local law enforcement strategy to combat heroin and opiate use.
"The stakes are high," said Taunton police Chief Edward Walsh. "If the properties are being used for drug sales, they are subject to forfeiture at both the state and federal level. If this type of activity is happening, they are likely going to see property damage to their property, as well as good tenants vacating or not being able to fill a vacancy."
Taunton police presented a report during a community forum held at Friedman Middle School on Monday night, detailing the department's overall strategy to combat the city's heroin and opiate problem. Police representatives explained the department's approach to strategic policing, supply reduction and the implementation of a new drug intervention program.
In the report, Taunton police expressed their willingness to assist landlords with the eviction of drug dealers who may live in their properties.
"Street Crime Detectives will make contact with landlords to inform them of the drug-related issues at the properties they own," the report said. "In all cases, property owners will be notified in writing when the police department makes an arrest for drug distribution at a rental property."
The report said that while most drug transactions occur at non-residential locations, many "street" and "mid-level" drug dealers live in rented apartments and use these apartments for the preparation and storage of drugs for sale.
"If sales are happening at the location, these activities impact the quality of life in the neighborhood," the report said. "If drug sales or related activity is occurring at a residential property, the Taunton Police Department is willing to assist landlords with the eviction of the dealers."
One property, in particular, has caught the attention of city law enforcement, after frequent calls related to drug use. Five overdoses were reported over a span of three days last week at the rear apartment at 40 Tremont St. , according to police.
Owners of a nearby business, who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, said that they see apparent drug activity at the location constantly.
"It's going on every day there," one of the owners said. "Something needs to be done about it. It's causing problems."
The business owner said he believes that the suspected drug activity at the location has led to several late-night break-ins at his property in recent years, including once last summer when intruders smashed the windows at his business. He said there were at least two others businesses in the vicinity that were targets in recent break-ins, which he attributed to the area's drug users.
"I wish they would just go away," said the other owner, who added that a larger police presence was needed in the area. "It's scary. Sometimes we see them out front, doing their business right in the parking lot."
The two-level house at 40 Tremont St. is located opposite a large plaza, with several stores, including a Trucchi's supermarket. On Tuesday afternoon, a car in the parking lot came to a stop before a passenger hopped out, ran across the street into the driveway and went into the 40 Tremont St. rear location.
Several messages left Tuesday at the property owner's publicly listed phone number were not returned as of press time. While the property appears to be have been foreclosed upon, Walsh said, the Middleboro resident who is the stated owner of the building has been sent letters from police regarding problems at the location.
"I have sent letters to both the listed owner and the attorney representing the mortgage company about the issues at the location," Walsh said. "I have also been in contact with the Board of Health and fire department concerning the code violations that I observed and asked them to address the matter."
Walsh said situations involving absentee landlords make the work of dealing with drug activity at their properties more problematic.
"I met recently with the landlord association to discuss issues of problem properties and working together to address them," he said. "I have offered the assistance of the department where appropriate. The issue is usually not the responsible landlords, it is the absentee or bank-owned properties where there is no oversight of what is happening on the property."
Walsh said he couldn't recall any recent drug-related arrests made at 40 Tremont St.
Walsh said that the Taunton Police Department website, www.tauntonpd.com, is establishing a link specifically to assist landlords with the eviction process and that hopefully it will be functional by the end of the week. Walsh said the department will provide police reports as required and make officers available to testify in housing court.
During Monday's public forum, law enforcement officials said there have been five fatal overdoses in Taunton since the beginning of 2014. There have been 66 heroin overdoses in the city so far in 2014, Taunton police said.
Walsh said he believes Monday's public forum on combating heroin and opiate use went well and resulted in healthy communication among citizens.
"At this point we need to review what was discussed and develop a plan to keep the dialogue going," he said.
