LOUISVILLE -- There will be one less grocery store option in Louisville next month.
The Safeway at 707 South Boulder Road is closing in mid-May, corporate officials confirmed Monday. Safeway spokeswoman Kris Staaf said the aging store was underperforming.
She said the company evaluated the store for a couple of years, ultimately deciding it made the most sense to close it. The store anchors the Village Square shopping center, which also includes a Walgreens, Beef "O" Brady's restaurant and a U.S. Post Office location.
"This store wasn't performing to our expectations," Staaf said. "There was a lot of competition."
In 2004, King Soopers opened a 66,000-square-foot store on the northeast corner of U.S. 287 and Baseline Road in Lafayette. Louisville also has a King Soopers at 1375 South Boulder Road, along with an Albertsons at 910 W. Cherry Ave.
Safeway has locations in nearby Erie, Superior and Boulder.
Staaf said the company, which operates about 120 Safeway stores in Colorado, is considering other potential locations in the Louisville area. She said the Louisville store's 45 employees will be offered positions at other area Safeway locations.
City Manager Malcolm Fleming said the 26,588-square-foot Safeway shopping center is under contract by someone looking to redevelop the site, but he didn't have definitive information on those plans.
Safeway is the second major retailer to pull up stakes in Louisville this year. Sam's Club, at 550 S. McCaslin Blvd., closed in January.
The Sam's Club closure prompted the city to make about $300,000 in budget cuts in March. Louisville officials expect a new retailer to fill the Sam's Club spot by 2011, but they prepared the budget as if another major retailer would close.
Because the budget anticipated a retailer like Safeway closing, Fleming said the city shouldn't need to make more budget cuts. He said the city also expects most of the Safeway customers to shop at other Louisville grocery stores, reducing the hit to the city's sales tax revenues.
On Monday, a small stream of Safeway shoppers said the impending closure is disappointing but not unexpected.
Dale Eberharter, a regular at the store who lives nearby, said selection at the store had become more limited in the last couple of years.
"It had been slipping," he said. "It's too bad. This was the first big-time grocery store in Louisville."
Diane Smith, who lives in Lafayette, said she only stops at the Louisville Safeway on her commute, doing the bulk of her grocery shopping at King Soopers.
"I'm surprised the store lasted this long," she said.

Slum Love at the Globes
She had to bring him. She had to. She could not face the Afflecks alone.
I don't understand why.
If I'm JLO, I'd face the Afflecks alone every.single.time. Especially in this dress. No, I don't like this dress. In fact, I think it's a gross dress -- much more typical of Zuhair Murad than Marion Cotillard's last week. But she's pretty much naked in this dress. That's the idea, isn't it? The idea is to show off the body and to tease everyone else with strategically placed lace snowflakes to camouflage the mystery areas...only, well, Ben has seen all those mystery areas.
This was like a reminder. As IF he could ever forget. Those mystery areas.
So you see, if she had come alone, it would just be her, Ben, her mystery areas, oh yeah, and his wife. Please. She's ahead already.
The minute that Slum Bear shows up though, well, it's like holding up a sign over her head that reads "my mystery areas are spending time in the dumpster these days". Yes, he used to work part time at the car wash but now I'm the f-cking idiot who made him Creative Director of my goddamn tour. At least Madonna keeps her toy at the dancer level, you know? Madonna understands that sharing her bed is enough of a bonus, she doesn't go and PROMOTE the backup dancer, Jesus.
Mrs Affleck is laughing at that. I promise you she is laughing. Not that she doesn't have her own problems but chill, we will get to that in minute. Right now though, she is laughing when JLO and her waiter-bear are joining in on the standing ovation too. Look at this fool with his fool face clapping like he knows about film. Look at her giggling into his eyes on the carpet. And then...
Look at her looking miserable arriving at the after-party (she changed into a black dress). Is it too much to hope that what we're seeing here, at the end of the night, is self-disgust on top of disgust? I am very familiar with this feeling because over 80% of the people I dated were vile. So I know the moment -- the moment you realise, the smoke clears, or you put your glasses on, or you are sane again, that that person you're going home with is vile...
I would love to Photo Assume that that's what this expression is but she usually isn't so lucid until she's married them.

I am getting the itch to customize my X-Mag for a while now, but am undecided on a theme for it.
First idea is... I have is because I have been a real big fan of the Shatner X-Mag since I first saw it. I have been on the fence about replicating it, but I feel even though it would look and operate the same it would be considered a cheap knock off.
Second idea is... Since I am a Star Trek fan (hence the Shatner mag) how about making a Stewart Mag for the great Captain Jean-Luc Picard.
Third idea is... On the same Star Trek theme... A Bakula mag for Captain Archer
Third is just get away from the Star Trek theme.. and go with something crazy... I am always open to options so if you got any let me know

Two of the three windows in the bedroom were obstructed by furniture, so curtain panels (my default window treatment) weren't really an option. I thought about transforming the mini-blinds into fabric shades, but I was really hoping to find a way to make a structured valence or pelmet box.
In the early planning stages, I was going to buy some plywood at Home Depot and use an electrical saw to cut out a fun design. That was intimidating for me though, and the price of the wood and a new saw (or a carpenter) was going to add up. Then I realized that I didn't need anything fancy in this room – just something flat that could be cut easily and that was sturdy enough to hold up some batting and fabric.
Enter: foam core board.
I picked up three sheets at Michael's for $1.99 each. I carefully drew one half of my pelmet shape on to the foam core, cut it out with a box cutter and used that piece as my template. I also cut some short pieces that would be my sides.
I had bought some L-brackets, screws, nuts and washers to assemble the corner pieces, but I ended up just duct taping the whole thing!! This project was SO easy!!
I don't have a photo of this step, but to hang the pelmets, I simply epoxied some wall hangers to the back of the foam core, and hung the boxes on the walls with nails.
And that's it! It took me about two hours to do this project - from design conception to hanging the three pelmets. So fast and so easy!
--P.S. Our internet has been down all weekend (I'm posting this from my husband's office), so if I owe you an email I promise to have something to you as soon as possible. We're hoping to have the situation fixed in the next couple days. Thanks!!

Draghi Prepares Ground for ECB Bond Purchases If NeededCorina Ruhe, Alessandro Speciale and Stefan Riecher
Mario Draghi said the European Central Bank might start broad-based asset purchases if the inflation outlook worsens as he prepares the ground for one of the most radical policies in the ECB's history.
"The objective here would not be to defend the current stance, but rather to increase meaningfully the degree of monetary accommodation," the ECB president said in a speech in Amsterdam today. "The Governing Council is committed –- unanimously –- to using both unconventional and conventional instruments to deal effectively with the risks of a too-prolonged period of low inflation."
Draghi's comments are his most explicit so far on what would prompt action similar to the quantitative easing programs at the U.S. Federal Reserve and Bank of England. Inflation data next week will give further clues as to whether consumer-price gains are accelerating as the economy recovers or if the euro area is teetering close to deflation.
"Draghi was very precise in explaining when and how the ECB will choose to act," said Johannes Gareis, an economist at Natixis in Frankfurt. "The ECB is unlikely to embark on broad-based asset purchases unless the ECB feels real deflationary risks."
The euro fell after Draghi's comments. It was little changed at $1.3811 at 4:38 p.m. Frankfurt time. Germany's benchmark 10-year bond yield slid five basis points to 1.517 percent.
Price Weakness
Inflation in the 18-nation currency bloc slowed to 0.5 percent last month, the weakest pace in more than four years and well below the ECB's goal of just under 2 percent. While that prompted Draghi to say on April 3 that policy makers are willing to use unconventional measures including asset purchases if needed, he also said the figure was depressed by temporary factors such as lower energy and food prices and the timing of Easter. This month's data is due on April 30.
"While inflation will remain low for a prolonged period, we see it gradually rising back to 2 percent," Draghi said today. "The delay is largely explained by the impairments in the transmission mechanism that lengthen the lag between our accommodative policy stance and price developments."
Draghi said that any asset-purchase program "should certainly take into account the heterogeneity, the fragmentation let's call it, of our euro-area system, if that is relevant for the effectiveness of the purchase program."
Euro Strength
His words echo comments made by Executive Board member Benoit Coeure on April 13 in Washington. Coeure warned that "segmentation would have to be taken into consideration" to ensure a purchase program in the euro area achieved a "homogeneous reduction" of longer-term interest rates.
Draghi said that the ECB doesn't see broad-based deflation risks, while adding that a stronger euro exchange rate does threaten the outlook for prices.
"A rise in the exchange rate, all else being equal, implies a tightening of monetary conditions, a downward impact on inflation and potentially a threat to the ongoing recovery," he said. "If so, this would call for policy action to maintain the current accommodative stance."
An unwarranted monetary tightening because of euro strength could be addressed by conventional measures including cuts in official interest rates, he said. The ECB has kept its benchmark main refinancing rate at a record-low 0.25 percent since November, and the deposit rate has been at zero since July 2012.
'Cut Both'
ECB Governing Council member Luc Coene said later in Amsterdam that a strong euro "certainly is a problem" in that it puts downward pressure on prices that are already low, and reiterated Draghi's comments on the possible policy response.
"If you only cut the main refinancing rate that is going to be a very small adjustment, that will not have sufficient impact on the markets," he said. "You should cut both and bring the whole corridor down."
Conventional policy action could also be warranted by tensions in short-term money markets "in an environment of receding excess liquidity in the euro area," Draghi said.
Excess liquidity in the euro-area financial system has dropped to 92.9 billion euros ($128 billion), the lowest level since December 2011, the ECB said today. The decline is adding to pressure on the ECB to curb money-market tensions, according to strategists at Rabobank.
ECB Minutes
Draghi also said publishing minutes is the "logical next step" in the ECB's efforts to improve transparency and accountability, and this might in turn trigger a reflection on how often the bank decides on monetary policy.
"It's very clear that the frequency of our meeting leads the public and the market to expect action," he said, adding this was his view and not necessarily the Governing Council's.
The ECB holds a rate-setting meeting once every month, more often than other central banks such as the Fed. The Bank of Japan is scheduled to hold 14 monetary policy meetings in 2014. The ECB's next rate meeting is on May 8 in Brussels.
"It's obvious that the frequency we have now is leading to some pressures to act more frequently than basically is needed in a medium-term framework," said Coene. "So you could argue that maybe it would be more optimal to have policy meetings not at every month, but at a greater interval."

Fisher Makes His Decision: Its Med School
Randy York's N-Sider Blog
The Official Blog of the Huskers
Forget our invitation to weigh in on what you would do if you were Sean Fisher. The two-time Nebraska Academic All-America linebacker decided Monday that he will not return to the gridiron for a possible sixth season and instead will concentrate all of his efforts on enrolling in medical school this fall.
"The opportunity to be part of this football program the past five years has been a great experience and one that is difficult to walk away from, but I made the determination it was time to move on," Fisher said. "I am putting all my energy toward preparing for med school."
Fisher said he appreciated Nebraska Coach Bo Pelini's decision to leave the door open for him to consider returning to football, plus the staff giving him the time to research the opportunities. "My decision is final," Fisher said Monday afternoon on his way to an anatomy class. "I'm getting married this summer, and I'm going through the process of finalizing my medical school decision."
Engaged to Former UNO Soccer Player
Fisher will marry Hayley Renshaw, a fellow Millard North (Neb.) High School graduate who lettered four years in soccer as a midfielder at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. A UNO grad, she became an account rep last year for Union Pacific Railroad in Omaha. Fisher's parents, Todd (a letter-winning cornerback on Nebraska's 1983 team), and Cathy Fisher, live in Omaha, where his dad develops and manages real estate. Cole Fisher, one of Sean's two younger brothers, plays football for the University of Iowa.
Fisher's time at Nebraska began with a 2008 redshirt season necessitated by a shoulder injury. He also suffered a broken leg in fall camp in 2010 and probably could have petitioned successfully for an extra season of eligibility. Through all his on-field setbacks, Fisher has maintained a 4.0 GPA in business administration and pre-medicine. Teammate Rex Burkhead and senior volleyball star Gina Mancuso joined Fisher as 2012 Academic All-Americans last month, enabling Nebraska to become the first NCAA institution in history to have 300 Academic All-Americans.
Fisher Earned Three Sullivan Awards
Fisher also has been the recipient of three consecutive Sullivan Scholarship Awards, named in honor of George Sullivan, who served in Nebraska's Athletic Department for more than 40 years, including the last 18 as head athletic trainer until his retirement in 1995.
"Todd was a great young man when he played here, and I think Sean's just like him in a lot of ways," Sullivan said. "I've seen a lot of leaders come through here. Sean and his dad aren't the kind of people who jump out at you as leaders, but they're the kind of people who everyone wants to follow. Our scholarship goes to someone who's pursuing a career in the medical field, and I know this. I'm 85 years old, and I hope I'm still around when Sean becomes a doctor. He's so even-tempered, I'd like to have him be my doctor."

Raiders can't keep up with Heritage Christian; Saint Mary men pull out comeback victory
With new parts, it can take time for a machine to run at full strength.
For the Immaculata boys' basketball team, Thursday was one of those nights where the kinks in its cogs caused too many blown chances for an Imac victory.
To open the new season, the Raiders introduced three new starters and a handful of fresh varsity players. The experience resulted in a 55-41 loss to visiting Heritage Christian.
"We had a lot of young guys get their first taste of varsity action tonight," Imac coach Mike Connelly said. "And even though it ended up in a loss, they never stop hustling. They never quit. They represented Immaculata well."
The game actually began in the Raiders favor when after one quarter of play the squad was up 9-8. But from there the Chargers cranked up its defensive pressure and started to squeeze the inexperience out of Imac.
"They were very aggressive against us and we struggled with that," Connelly said. "It's something these guys will learn to deal with as they get more games underneath them."
By half, Heritage had built a 25-19 advantage and then extended that to 38-29 entering the fourth quarter.
In the last period, Imac tried to stick with the Chargers, yet couldn't keep up with its visitors' offensively.
Sean Murray was the team's leading point man with 20 while Danny Boisson added seven and Josh Boeppler kicked in six. Jarret McCall had five points, Drew Sachen two and Connor Goetz one.
The Raiders, 0-1, will play at Horton Friday starting at 7 p.m.
Huge comeback sparks USM win
Down 10 midway through the second half, the University of Saint Mary men's basketball team began a rousing rally Thursday.
After trailing by double digits, the Spires scratched all the way back to take a 68-67 lead with 3:47 left.
The squad then nailed its free throws down the stretch to claim the 82-76 comeback win.
Kevin Harvey led the team in scoring with 26 points and splashed home six 3-pointers.
USM, now 1-0 in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference and 5-5 overall, will go to Friends University next for a 7 p.m. game Saturday.

Super Bowl advertisers spent $3.8 million per 30-second spot to pitch their brands to more than 100 million viewers. They employed celebrities — Kate Upton, Amy Poehler, Tracy Morgan, Psy — along with familiar talking babies, partying geriatrics and Clydesdales. Which ads were most effective?
GoDaddy "Sexy Meets Smart"
Description: Supermodel Bar Rafaeli kisses a nerd.
From the panel: Robinson: "An ad that plays out the male-nerd fantasy of kissing a supermodel. The 'Today Show' blurred the all-tongues-on-deck kiss. In an ironic twist, the censored ad works better than the raw footage, making it funny. Too bad GoDaddy didn't act on the 'Today Show's' unintentional move that plays up the tongue-and-cheek aspect of this far-fetched spectacle." Marranzino: "GoDaddy is always pushing the envelope to garner attention, but there was something a little stomach-turning about the kiss!" Stern: "Disgusting. Sleazy. Forgettable. Classic GoDaddy." Sukle: " 'Sexy Meets Smart' gets all the press, but it's not their best spot. The 'big idea' is much better. It's a stronger reason to try GoDaddy and a much more intriguing spot. Do you really want to watch the nerdy kid make out a second time? Bet not." Duber-Smith: "Gross. The sound effects made people sick. But they have a direct response vehicle, so they'll get some hits." Wagner: "GoDaddy's makeout's sexy-and-smart message came through. But, wouldn't want the kids seeing this one."
Audi "Prom (worth it)"
Description: A young man is off to the prom, solo. His dad throws him the keys to the Audi S6, empowering him enough to kiss the prom queen. His resulting black eye is "worth it."
From the panel:Robinson: "Message received: being a man in our capitalistic world means breaking the rules to get what you want. What works in the commercial is the sound and visual editing. The ad keeps the violence out of the picture and allows the spectator to root for the underdog. A happy ending for Audi." Stern: "Beautifully executed and a nice piece of storytelling. But the message is slightly disturbing — manhood (and self-worth) is only measured by the car you drive and your willingness to semi-assault women? I'm all for the underdog, but I'd expect more from Audi and their agency." Wagner: "Laughed out loud at the teen's primal scream as he drives home victorious. YouTube viewers got to vote, selecting one of three endings prior to the final cut. They picked the right one."
VW "Get in. Get Happy"
Description: A Jamaican-accented Midwestern white guy encourages co-workers to cheer up. In a red VW.
From the panel: Wagner: "Complaints? Hey critics: 'Don't worry, be happy.' " Marranzino: "VW got the most pregame hype. It does a good job of making the familiar strange and the strange familiar." Sukle: "Yo, mon. The Germans do have a sense of humor. The VW spot captured the feeling and spirit of driving in a Bug in a clever way. Nice idea, executed perfectly." Robinson: "Anyone who has ever worked in an office where your days blend together, you go home, and then wake up and do it all over again, can appreciate a little happiness in the workplace cubicle." Duber-Smith: "The ad was not effective with showing multiple product or logo impressions, which is very important. But, there was a hashtag call to action at the end. The social media/direct response tie-in is now an imperative."
Mercedes-Benz "Kate Upton Washes the Mercedes-Benz"
Description: A supermodel oversees the washing of a Benz. In cutoffs. In slo-mo.
From the panel:Duber-Smith: "All sex, but not too overboard. The good kind of controversy. Good music and, of course, the necessary 'to see more go to ...' Facebook call to action." Robinson: "I'd rather watch Kate Upton eat a huge burger half-naked than be the prop to some loser's fantasy about selling his soul to the devil ... a.k.a. Willem Dafoe." Sukle: "Mercedes is aggressively going after a younger audience, which is incredibly important for them. The brand was getting old and dusty, and that's never a good place to be." Wagner: "Dude tempted to sell his soul to the devil over the Mercedes. Kate appears midway, not nearly as sexy as in the teaser. At the end, our hero sees the low price on a billboard and refuses to sell his soul to the devil. Not nearly as provocative as the 'Teaser' car wash spot. A letdown."
Dodge Ram "God Made a Farmer"
Description: Radio legend Paul Harvey's speech about farmers frames a salute to the Dodge Ram truck.
From the panel: Sukle: "What a great spot. Wish I'd done that one. It felt honest and authentic. The execution was beautiful and simple. Using still photos stood out, and the sound design made everyone stop and listen. Of course they had Paul Harvey, and you can't get any more honest and authentic than that." Robinson: " 'God Made a Farmer' looks more like God made a Republican. A token woman, girl and black man do not do enough to obfuscate the Republican message of this commercial. The conservative 'we actually did build it' message clearly has a specific audience in mind. Hey Dodge — you don't need to RAM it down our throats ... we get it."
Our panel
Pasquale "Pocky" Marranzino, chairman/chief executive, Karsh Hagen; Glenn Morey, president, Morey Evans Advertising; Janet Robinson, film studies instructor, University of Colorado at Boulder; Darrin Duber-Smith, professor of sports marketing, Metropolitan State University of Denver; Aaron Stern, executive creative director, gyro; Mike Sukle, creative director/owner, Sukle Advertising; Greg Wagner, University of Denver and former creative director, Leo Burnett USA.

- Ex-Boulder cop gets 10 days home monitoring, probation for Thornton DUI
- Apr 8:
- Ex-Boulder cop Elizabeth Ward working on plea deal in Thornton DUI case
- Mar 22:
- Ex-Boulder detective gets deferred sentence, probation under deal in DUI case
- Feb 22:
- 2 Boulder cops charged with DUIs resign rather than face termination
- Dec 6:
- Boulder cop suspected of driving drunk was department's DUI officer
CORRECTION: This story originally reported incorrectly which agency the off-duty police officer who reported Elizabeth Ward worked for. That officer was from the Arvada Police Department. Also, based on incorrect information from the Adams County Sheriff's Office, this story incorrectly reported that Ward was not booked into jail. She was booked.
An off-duty Boulder police officer was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Thornton early Tuesday morning after police say she had trouble keeping her vehicle in her lane and told an officer, "I'm drunk."
Officer Elizabeth Ward, 36, was driving northbound on Interstate 25 around 2:15 a.m. Tuesday when an off-duty Arvada police officer reported she was weaving between lanes and was driving 40 mph in a 65 mph zone, according to a police report. The off-duty officer called in to report Ward and then followed her.
By the time an on-duty Thornton officer reached Ward, she had pulled off the side of the road on her own, according to police. The off-duty officer -- who was still in uniform -- told the arriving officer that Ward was an off-duty officer with the Boulder Police Department. She was not armed, but did have ammunition and police gear in the trunk of her sedan.
When asked why she had pulled over, Ward said, "I'm drunk," and the officer noted an odor of alcohol and that Ward's speech was slurred and her eyes were bloodshot and watery, according to the report. When she exited the car to perform roadside a sobriety test, officers noted she had a hard time standing up and eventually declined to perform the maneuvers.
Thornton police took a sample of Ward's blood and issued her a county summons for weaving and DUI. She was then released into the custody of a Boulder police sergeant after being booked into jail, according to the report.
Boulder police spokeswoman Kim Kobel said Ward has been placed on paid administrative leave.
"We're aware of the investigation in Thornton," Kobel said Wednesday. "Any time an officer in Boulder faces a criminal charge, that initiates an internal investigation here at the police department and we have begun that investigation."
Kobel could not say when the internal investigation will be completed, but said the findings likely will be looked at by a review board that will then have the option to recommend discipline. The discipline, which must be approved by Chief Mark Beckner, could range from a verbal reprimand to termination, Kobel said.
Ward has been a patrol officer with the department since 2007, Kobel said.
Ward declined to comment on the case when reached by phone Wednesday at her home in Longmont.
It is unclear how the sergeant who picked Ward up was notified. Thornton police did not return calls for comment regarding their policy on releasing DUI suspects.
Boulder police do have a policy that says DUI suspects may be released into the custody of friend or family members after booking, Kobel said, but that decision is left up to the discretion of arresting officers.

The EPA is holding its second Campus Rainworks Challenge this term. Campus Rainworks Challenge is a competition to design an innovative green infrastructure project for their campus showing how managing stormwater at its source can benefit the campus community and the environment. This year PSU Students have decided to enter the competition. Winning teams in each category will be awarded cash prizes. Competition requirements are two design boards, one three minute video and one 20 page report on your design.
Green infrastructure uses vegetation, soils, and natural processes to manage stormwater and create healthier urban environments. While single-purpose "gray" stormwater infrastructure (e.g. catch basins, pipes, and ponds) is largely designed to move urban stormwater away from the built environment, green infrastructure uses vegetation and soil to manage rainwater where it falls.
This year's team of students from PSU will be meeting on Tuesday mornings at 8:00am in the Engineering Building, Room 202L. They will continue to meet until the end of the quarter since submissions are due on Dec 13th. Evan Kristof will be the faculty advisor for the team. Students wanting to participate should be encouraged to do so even if they have no experience in green design.
The team is particularly interested in getting help from:
1) Video Editor - We need a student or a class to help create a 3 minute video about our plan.
2) Business or economics students
3) Environmental Science students

CENTENNIAL — Courtrooms are full for a third day as the preliminary hearing for suspected Aurora theater shooter James Holmes continues Wednesday.
Arapahoe County prosecutors are presenting evidence and the judge will decide whether there is enough evidence to proceed to trial. Holmes is accused of killing 12 people and injuring at least 58 at the Century 16 theater on July 20.
The Holmes defense team has opted not to call any witnesses; it is expected the hearing will wrap up Wednesday morning.
Wednesday it was revealed that Holmes took photos of himself using his cell phone the night of the shootings.
In one, marked at 6:22 p.m., he was wearing black contact lenses. His hair was dyed red under a black cap, and he stuck out his tongue at the camera.
In another image, he is seen smiling with the muzzle of a Glock hangun in the frame.
Prosecutors told the court they introduced the self photos because they help show Holmes' "identity, deliberation and extreme indifference."
An image Holmes took of himself on July 5 shows him posing with an asault rifle and "a majority of the tactical, ballistic gear" he had with him when he was apprehended.
Another photo shows all of the gear — the guns, the body armor, helmet and gas mask — arrayed neatly on Holmes' bed.
Proscutors also revealed that on June 29, July 5 and July 11 Holmes took photos of the Century 16 theater that included its interiors, door hinges and back doors.
Testimony was emotional on Monday, with police officers testifying about first apprehending Holmes and rushing to help victims amid the chaos at the theater. Those present saw surveillance video from that night.
On Tuesday 911 calls from Theater 9 were played, and law enforcement testified about how Holmes had booby-trapped his own and acquired guns and ammunition.

But numbers have continued up in the rest of the state
Foreclosure filings throughout Southwest Florida eased in the first quarter of this year, a sign lenders are being less aggressive in their rate of repossessions.
The lull in the first three months of 2013 comes after foreclosures regionwide rose last year, the result of mortgage delinquency cases that were refiled in the wake of a $25 billion settlement deal between banks and state governments.
Although an estimated number of potential foreclosures remains dangerously high, most analysts believe lenders now are intentionally holding back to ensure they do not flood the market with distressed properties -- a move that would cause prices to fall marketwide.
"We're seven years deep into this now, and the reality is this is all we can handle," said Marcus Vanzant, broker and owner of Marcus & Co. Realty, in Bradenton.
"This is all the banks can allocate and all the courts can process," he added. "It's still tough for a normal buyer to get one of these foreclosures."
There were 1,234 total foreclosure filings between Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte counties in March. That was down 4 percent from February and 10.5 percent compared with the same time last year, according to data released Wednesday by RealtyTrac Inc.
Particularly volatile
The dip marks another undulation in what has become a volatile foreclosure rate, with monthly filings in each of the area's three counties seesawing back-and-forth since last fall.
"I don't know what it is about Sarasota, but the numbers there are definitely more volatile month-to-month than any other Florida market," said Daren Blomquist, a RealtyTrac vice president. "For most of the state, and in general, the trend has been foreclosures are going up."
Manatee is the only county in Southwest Florida in which new default filings have risen consistently. Some 550 total foreclosures were reported last month, up marginally from February and up 19 percent from March 2012.
In Sarasota, meanwhile, the 404 foreclosures in March represented a 22 percent drop from February and a 36 percent decrease from March 2012, records show.
Charlotte, with 280 total foreclosures in March, saw its filings hold relatively flat from a year ago.
Year started higher
Banks appeared to be ramping up their foreclosures filings again at the start of 2013 -- especially on older cases that had been stuck in local court backlogs. In all, roughly 15,000 cases have yet to be resolved. Some have lingered for as long as four years.
But the pause in March also indicates lenders are not getting too overzealous, Blomquist said.
An increased willingness by lenders to fast-track foreclosure alternatives, like short sales and deeds-in-lieu, also have helped reduce the numbers, he said.
Throughout the first-quarter, lenders in the three-county region processed 3,751 foreclosures, a 10 percent dip from the fourth-quarter of 2012 and a modest 1 percent decline from the same three months last year. Those totals include default notices, scheduled auctions and bank repossessions recorded by RealtyTrac.
Lis pendens, or early stage foreclosure filings, continue to make up the bulk of the overall totals. Those filings across Southwest Florida jumped 24 percent.
No slowing for state
Unlike the local data, foreclosure activity shows no signs of slowing across Florida, which continues to hold the title as the nation's foreclosure capital.
There were a total of 85,671 Sunshine State properties subject to foreclosure filings in the first quarter, the most of any state and nearly three times the national average.
Florida's foreclosure activity in the first quarter increased 7 percent from the final three months of 2012 and was up 17 percent from the initial quarter of last year, according to RealtyTrac.
Miami led the nation with the highest rate of defaults among metropolitan statistical areas with populations of 200,000 or more.
Six other Florida metro areas posted foreclosure rates that ranked among the nation's top 10, including Orlando at No. 2; Ocala at No. 3; Tampa at No. 5; Jacksonville at No. 7; Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville at No. 8; and Lakeland at No. 10.
Across the country, foreclosures were filed against 152,500 U.S. properties in March, a decrease of 1 percent from the previous month and a drop of 23 percent from a year ago.
Spikes in rate
From new legislation to docket backlogs and tighter laws regulating home mortgages, analysts say foreclosure trends are no longer a solid indicator of the health of the market.
"We have really seen them come in spurts," said Drew Peterson, a foreclosure specialist with Re/Max Alliance Group in Sarasota.
"The courts are so far behind, and I think that's a huge part of it. They work on a bunch at a time, move them out, and that's when you see them show up in the numbers. So, you will get a slow period, followed by a huge uptick."

Welcome to Stock Yards®, The World's Finest Steaks & Chops! For over 100 years, Stock Yards has been providing the very best USDA Prime and Choice steaks, pork, lamb and veal to America's finest restaurants including: Chicago Chop House, Gibson's, Morton's, Tavern on Rush and Wildfire. While steaks of this quality are usually sold only to restaurants and steakhouses, Stockyards is one of the very few who can deliver them direct.

Prime or Choice Cut? What's the difference?
USDA Prime. Only the top few percent of all beef produced in the U.S. qualifies for the USDA Prime grade. This distinctively superior beef contains the greatest degree of marbling, creating a tender and juicy steak with a buttery flavor.
USDA Choice. This is the most popular grade of beef for its well-marbled texture and butter-rich flavor, giving it an exquisite tenderness and taste. Just over half of all beef graded each year earns a grade of Choice, and we only choose the highest quality Choice available.

According to Longmont police, the limo driver called paramedics on Friday at about 10 p.m. after discovering the girl abandoned by the other party guests in the back of the car on the 1000 block of Yeager Drive.
Longmont Police Cmdr. Jeff Satur said she was taken by ambulance to Longmont United Hospital. Her blood alcohol content was so high that she could have died, he said.
She was conscious and speaking incoherently with medics. Police helped to identify her and contacted her grandmother, her guardian.
The 14-year-old girl's mother told police that she rented the limousine for the birthday celebration, but denied providing the alcohol. The limo took party guests to Frederick, Fort Collins and Longmont throughout the evening.
At about 10 p.m., the driver discovered the girl during a stop and noted that others who had been with her had abandoned her.
Longmont Master Police Officer Jason Malterud was able to interview some of the other party guests and has been investigating throughout the week, but has not been able to determine who provided the alcohol.
Anyone with information is asked to call Malterud at 303-651-8510. Anonymous tips may be left with Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or online at nococrimestoppers.com.

First Malaysian Family Life Survey, 1976-1977 (ICPSR 6170)
Principal Investigator(s): Butz, William; DaVanzo, Julie
The First Malaysian Family Life Survey, 1976-1977 (MFLS-1), was conducted in Peninsular Malaysia as a retrospective life history survey of 1,262 households containing an ever-married woman aged 50 or younger. Full life histories were collected through personal interviews with these women and their husbands regarding fertility-related events, marriage, employment, migration, income and wealth, attitudes and expectations with respect to family size and composition, community characteristics, time allocation, and transfers of goods, help, and money between the respondents and others. The survey collected data in three separate rounds held at four-month intervals. The majority of the survey was administered in Round 1, while the second and third rounds collected data on new questions not asked in Round 1 and also updated some of the Round 1 data, most notably the work and pregnancy histories. In October 1981, the individual-level dataset (Part 142) was created, consisting of one fixed-length record per individual per household. Variables included at both the individual and household levels provide information on demographics, time allocation, and income and wealth. Due to processing constraints, most of the retrospective data have been omitted from the individual-level dataset.

BELVIDERE — A 20-year-old Belvidere man faces a minimum of 45 years in prison after a Boone County jury found him guilty Monday of first-degree murder in a gang-related shooting.
Marco Hernandez was found guilty of shooting and killing Richard Herman, 33, on April 21, 2013, at the Belvidere Shell Station, 1024 N. State St.
According to witnesses, four people got into a disagreement in the gas station's parking lot and one of the men pulled out a gun and shot Herman in the chest. Hernandez, then 19, and Deontae Murray, then 21, ran away from the scene.
Murray was arrested May 10, 2013, by Rockford police officers.
On May 14, 2013, the U.S. Marshals Apprehension Unit arrested Hernandez after he attempted to flee by crawling out a rear window of a residence in the 600 block of West Madison Street.
Hernandez is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 17.

A movie about John and Myrlene McLean would have the restaurant business as a backdrop. And their latest venture does indeed have a place in the movies — or at least next to the movies.
The South Jeffco couple opened Johnny Mac's on Sept. 24 in a space just off the lobby of Elvis Cinemas at West Bowles Avenue and South Kipling Street. The diner-style eatery, which can hold about 30 people, is adorned with movie posters, the biggest from Robert Redford's 1992 hit "A River Runs Through It."

Editorial: Lack of candidates after busy year shows community believes in Kirksville Board of Education.
There are typically two reasons for low numbers of citizens filing for county offices.
First, a general sense of apathy or belief they do not have time for public service.
Second, a complete sense of satisfaction with the current elected members and a desire to keep them
in place.
Filing closed for April's Kirksville R-III School Board election Tuesday, and only incumbents Jeff Brawner and Larry Logston filed to retain their two open seats. Given all that's happened in last year, we conclude the reason they will not face a challenge is not a sense of apathy, but instead an overwhelming stamp of approval.
Last year, the board cause a bit of a ripple after approving about $1.2 million in improvements at
Spainhower Field, including the much talked about conversion to artificial turf.
The board approved a drug testing program, requiring students participating in activities to be
subjected to random urine analysis.
And of course, there was the tragedy at Sandy Hook, which makes people everywhere wonder if
their home school district is doing enough to keep children safe.
If there was ever a year with issues to bring new candidates, this was it. Instead, the silence tells us
those who care and pay attention believe all is well.
We'd tend to agree. The R-III board and district leadership have piloted the schools through difficult
budget times and emerged stronger. Where many districts were and are cutting, R-III built.
Thank you, and keep up the good work.

Those who have already earned a starting nod for the Chicago Bears will most likely ride this one out on the sidelines, leaving Thursday's preseason finale in Cleveland to those battling for roster spots.
And there are plenty of those left, especially on the defensive side of things, where Chicago made most of its changes in the offseason.
"If you look at us defensively, the competitions we wanted to create were D-line, linebacker, safety and at the nickel," Bears head coach Marc Trestman said. "I think for the most part, we still have competition going on for those positions, even in the last game."
While the two starting safety slots are still unsettled, it will be difficult for the Bears' coaches to evaluate them with Chris Conte out with a concussion and Ryan Mundy likely to sit, too, with a laceration on his forehead. Veteran Adrian Wilson was cut last week, leaving rookie Brock Vereen and free-agent acquisitions Danny McCray and M.D. Jennings to battle it out Thursday.
The Bears may stick with Conte even as he sits, unless someone steps up Thursday and shows them that they don't have to.
Last year's starting nickel back Isaiah Frey was cut on Tuesday, and rookie Kyle Fuller will try and solidify that spot Thursday as well. Linebackers Jon Bostic, Khaseem Greene, Christian Jones and Shea McClellin still have to prove they belong in the lineup on a weekly basis, and the two new rookies on the line — Will Sutton and Ego Ferguson — will certainly get plenty of playing time.
"All of those guys have continued to progress," defensive coordinator Mel Tucker said. "But none of us are where we need to be. We've got a couple of weeks to change that before that regular season game."
On offense, the Bears are still searching for their third wide receiver to replace Marquess Wilson until he returns from a broken collarbone, as well as Matt Forte's primary backup at halfback.
New Bear veterans Josh Morgan and Santonio Holmes are in the hunt for the third wideout spot, and Shaun Draughn and Ka'Deem Carey appear to have the best chances to take over the No. 2 running-back position.
That is, unless someone else — even someone like former Northern Illinois star QB Jordan Lynch, who is expected to get plenty of carries out of the backfield — uses Thursday's stage in a big way.
Chicago also has questions looming on special teams. Chris Williams' hamstring is healed, and he's expected to get some shots at returning this week, but that isn't the only hole to be plugged.
Special teams coordinator Joe DeCamillas hopes a little over a week will be enough time to shore it all up.
"I'm glad it's happening now instead of during the season, to be honest with you," DeCamillas said. "I think our guys will rally to it, and we're going to get better."
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m., and the team must get the roster from its current 75 to the regular-season mandate of 53 by 3 p.m. Saturday.

WASHINGTON -- Secret Defense Department studies cast doubt on whether a multibillion-dollar missile-defense system planned for Europe can ever protect the U.S. from Iranian missiles as intended, congressional investigators say.
Military officials say they believe they can overcome the problems and are moving forward with plans. But proposed fixes could prove difficult. One possibility has been ruled out as technically unfeasible. A second, relocating missile interceptors planned for Poland and possibly Romania to ships on the North Sea, could be diplomatically troublesome.
The studies are the latest to highlight serious problems for a plan that has been criticized on several fronts.
Republicans claim it was developed hastily in an attempt to appease Russia, which had opposed an earlier system. But Russia is also critical of the plan, which it believes is really intended to counter its missiles. A series of governmental and scientific reports has raised questions about whether it would ever work as planned.
At a time that the military faces giant budget cuts, the studies could lead Congress to reconsider whether it is worthwhile to spend billions for a system that may not fulfill its original goals.
The classified studies were summarized in a briefing for lawmakers by the Government Accountability Office, Congress' nonpartisan investigative and auditing arm, which is preparing a report.
Military officials declined repeated requests to discuss the studies on the record, noting they were classified. Even speaking on condition of anonymity, officials declined to say whether the GAO accurately had reported its conclusions. But the briefing had been reviewed by several Defense Department officials and the revisions they requested were incorporated. There was no indication they had objected to how the studies had been described.
The officials who spoke to the AP emphasized that the interceptor intended to protect the United States is in the early stages of development and its capabilities are not known. They said that the U.S. is already protected by other missile- defense systems. Even if European-based interceptors are unable to directly defend the United States, they say they would protect not only European alli es and U.S. troops stationed on the continent, but also U.S. radars there that are necessary for all U.S. missile-defense plans.
Missile defense has been a contentious issue since President George W. Bush sought to base long-range interceptors in Central Europe to stop missiles from Iran. Some Democrats criticized the plans, saying they were rushed and based on unproven technology. Russia believed the program was aimed at countering its missiles and undermining its nuclear deterrent.
It might seem logical for the U.S. to want to have a defense against Russian missiles, but it's not that simple.
A new missile-defense system aimed at Russia could undermine the balance between the nuclear powers, leading Moscow to add to its arsenal and build up its own defenses. It would undermine prospects for further cuts in nuclear weapons, which are a priority for President Barack Obama, and could hurt U.S.-Russian cooperation on other issues of international importance.
Obama reworked the plans soon after taking office in 2009, saying the threat from long-range Iranian missiles was years off. His plans called for slower interceptors that could address Iran's medium-range missiles. The interceptors would be upgraded gradually over four phases, culminating early next decade with those intended to protect both Europe and the United States.
The plans have gained momentum in Europe with the signing of basing agreements in Poland, Romania and Turkey, as well as backing by NATO.
Russia initially welcomed the plan, but now strongly opposes it, especially the interceptors in the final stage. Russia fears those interceptors could catch its intercontinental missiles launched at the U.S.
It is that fourth stage that is now at issue.
The GAO investigators said that the classified reports by the Missile Defense Agency concluded that Romania was a poor location for an interceptor to protect the U.S. It said the Polish site would work only if the U.S. developed capabilities to launch interceptors while an Iranian missile was in its short initial phase of powered flight.

|When many people think of cloud computing they immediately think of virtualization and virtual machines in particular. This is completely natural and not at all surprising. After all, one of the core underlying technologies necessary for cloud computing is virtualization. However, it is important not to confuse one element of cloud computing with the entire thing - and this can sometimes happen. Many people have begun to leverage virtual machines in their on premise environment and sometimes begin to call this their private cloud. While virtualization is a substantial step forward and help gets you started down the necessary path of standardization and automation that is essential in a cloud - it is not in and of itself "a cloud".
The National Institute of Standards and Technology has published its definition of cloud computing. This is a very complete and yet concise definition that includes not only the essential characteristics of a cloud solution but also the service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and deployment models (public, private, hybrid, community). It is a great way to get a perspective on cloud and can be useful when considering the solutions of various vendors.
Let me summarize the essential elements of cloud from this definition here:
So, this is interesting. Not only is this much more than just virtualization - but virtualization isn't even mentioned in the list explicitly. Not to worry - virtualization is of course important and is included under the resource pooling topic. I would assert that virtualization is also necessary to facilitate the type of on-demand, self-service, elastically scaling resources that are leveraged in a cloud. What is crystal clear from this definition is that there is a lot more to a cloud solution than just virtual images and some hypervisor infrastructure upon which to run them. Somebody must provide the necessary on-demand/self-service capabilities, the network access to these services, the management of the resource pools, enabling true elasticity for running systems, measuring services and so forth. IBM Workload Deployer provides just such capabilities for the on-premise cloud allowing you to efficiently deploy patterns built for virtual systems and virtual applications with deep knowledge of the middleware that is being provisioned to optimize these solutions. Furthermore, Workload Deployer provides the complete lifecycle management from pattern creation, to deployment and provisioning, applying maintenance, resource and license management in the on-premise cloud, elastic scalability, and eventually returning resources to the on-premise cloud to be reused. Workload Deployer is a complete solution for not only server virtualization but of course for cloud computing.
|However, virtualization doesn't have to stop with just virtual machines. It is a general principle that can be applied to more than just servers. At its core, virtualization is really about providing a level of abstraction between some real resources and the consumers of those resources. This is a natural fit when we think of server virtualization and virtual machines. However, there are also substantial benefits to be gained by adopting a similar abstraction between the middleware and the applications themselves - sometimes referred to as application virtualization.
|By application virtualization I mean providing the capabilities to abstract the application from the underlying infrastructure such that it can be elastic, participate in health management policies, and provide agility across the pool of application infrastructure resources. This type of application virtualization is built into our Virtual Application pattern (hence the name) in Workload Deployer and surfaced in solutions via policies (such as scaling and routing), and high availability functions built into the Web Application pattern type. For Virtual Applications these features are fully integrated and optimized functions as are all elements of Virtual Applications. However, similar features have also been available for WebSphere Application Deployments in Virtual System patterns with a special extension.
|WebSphere Virtual Enterprise provides application virtualization for traditional WebSphere ND solutions and this same feature is delivered for Virtual System pattern deployments of WebSphere Application Server by use of the Intelligent Management Pack. Leveraging the capabilities of Workload Deployer with Virtual Systems lets you gain the benefits of server virtualization and to reduce hardware, provide rapid and consistent deployment of entire systems, dynamically adjust resource consumption, and much more. Leveraging the capabilities of the Intelligent Management Pack provides the ability to manage service level agreements with elastic scaling and health management, lower operational costs, and provide for improved application management. These two solutions together provide a powerful combination to improve the management and resiliency of your enterprise applications.
|If you would like to learn more about application virtualization using the Intelligent Management Pack in conjunction with Virtual System Patterns in IWD then please join Keith Smith and myself tomorrow for a webcast on this very topic. Keith is the lead architect on our WebSphere Virtual Enterprise and Intelligent Management Pack products and brings a wealth of experience in this space.

A Smyrna man has been charged with criminal impersonation and on drug charges after giving Smyrna Police a false name during a traffic stop.
Smyrna Police stopped a vehicle on Feb. 19 at approximately 10 p.m. on Route 13 at Mill Street for a traffic violation. Police said the officer issued a citation to the driver and cleared the stop.
On Thursday, a man contacted the officer and advised that he was given a false name on the Feb. 19 stop. The officer located the actual driver in the Deljis computer and obtained a warrant for the suspect's arrest, police said.
As the officer entered the Bombay Woods development to make contact with the suspect, the suspect drove past the officer and was subsequently stopped again. Police said a search of the vehicle revealed suspected marijuana.
Darren C. Holden, 21, of the unit block of Gooseneck Lane in Smyrna, was charged with possession of marijuana, criminal impersonation, possession of drug paraphernalia, and two counts of driving with a revoked license.
Holden was processed at the Smyrna Police Department and presented at Justice of the Peace Court 2 via videophone and released on a $3,000 unsecured bond.
