Update on Pollinator Sanctuary
The Stewardship of Creation Committee (formerly the Green Team) has been working behind the scenes to arrive at a suitable design and location for the Pollinator Sanctuary Garden.
As part of this effort, St. Paul's engaged a professional landscape architect to asses all the landscape features on our grounds, with a special eye to how the garden project could fit in and enhance existing plantings.
Please contact us if you would like to join in or be notified of any of these activities.
For information about the Diocese of Virginia's Committee on the Stewardship ofCreation, please click here.
The two planting plateaus as viewed from University Avenue. The pollinator sanctuary is designed to blend with the more traditional landscape across from Jefferson's university.
Two garden plots approx. 10 ft by 20 ft will be accessible from the lawn in front of the church (drawing by Anne Russell)
Ecological modeling is used to select native plants suited to soils and site conditions (Ix Gardens in Charlottesville by Center for Urban Habitats).
Imagine a sanctuary of similar plantings providing food and shelter for moths, butterflies, and bees in all life cycle stages in all seasons.
See how the Center for Urban Habitats has transformed traditional sidewalk plantings into a variety of plantings representing our local "piedmont prairie" ecosystem at a main intersection in the Belmont neighborhood. Our pollinator sanctuary will transform the grassy monoculture to an ecologically diverse habitat.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
The DMV will suspend your license unless you take affirmative action, and contest the suspension as well as the DUI charge.
YOU MUST CONTACT THE DMV WITHIN 10 DAYS OF YOUR ARREST AND REQUEST A HEARING TO CONTEST THE SUSPENSION OF YOUR DRIVERS LICENSE. If you make a timely request, the suspension of your license will be stayed until the final determination of your case by the DMV. Failure to request a hearing within ten days will result in an automatic suspension of your license. Hire an attorney prior to contacting the DMV. Your attorney will be able to push your hearing date back to insure that you are prepared for your DMV case. Furthermore, your attorney will need to coordinate your hearing date with your defense in court. A lawyer familiar with the local DMV hearing office procedures and the local Hearing Officers can absolutely better your chances of winning the hearing and not losing your driving privileges.
Your lawyer MUST be familiar with the Court, Judges and the prosecutors. You may never have to appear in court if you have a good lawyer. Do not try to represent yourself! A good DUI Defense lawyer will always get better results. The Court and legal system are complicated. A good DUI lawyer can save you the hassle, time and expense as well as the worry about the outcome.
California DUI laws are some of the toughest in the nation. However, there are many alternatives to jail. If the lawyer is familiar with the court, the lawyer can craft a disposition that may avoid jail or incarceration. Creative and innovative defense will lessen the likelihood of harsh jail sentences, incarceration, or endless hours of picking up paper along the freeways.
The amount you pay for a lawyer depends on the lawyer's experience and reputation. The fee should be reasonable and not excessive. Each case is unique. Each court is different. Fees will vary depending on the case. Only a lawyer familiar with the courts, the prosecutors and the possible defenses can insure that you don't get ripped off! Your consultation should always be free, your questions answered and your fees affordable. My promise is that you will receive an honest evaluation, personal representation and be quoted a reasonable fee for the efforts to obtain the desired result.

Viacom said Wednesday that it is slashing 850 jobs — or 7% of its total workforce — in an ominous sign that massive cost cuts are in the works around the entertainment industry as it braces for a long and brutal recession.
MTV Networks will shoulder the brunt of the layoffs, with the staff trimmed by as many as 500. Insiders say the layoffs will be concentrated in the Music/Logo/Films Group headed by Van Toffler.
Paramount Pictures will endure another series of pinkslips — an event that has become a regular occurrence on the Melrose lot as the studio continues to become a leaner operation. In addition to a series of layoffs, Paramount has introduced a number of cost-cutting measures over the past year including reducing the target for its number of annual releases from 25 to 20 and folding Par Vantage marketing, distribution and physical production departments into the parent studio.
"Like all other divisions of the company, Paramount too is adapting to the changing conditions and, as a result, we will reduce our global workforce," Par chairman-CEO Brad Grey wrote Thursday in a memo circulated to staff. "These reductions are across the studio: accounting, business/legal affairs, corporate and government affairs, home entertainment, human resources, information technology, production, studio lot operations and Vantage."
Indeed, although the studio would offer no further details on the layoffs – believed to number 100 of the 3,000-employee worldwide staff – the Vantage label appeared most in jeopardy, with Nick Meyer ankling his post as president.
Meyer, who has three years remaining on his contract, took the label's reins in January after John Lesher segued to the No. 2 creative post at the studio. Sources said Vantage – a label that produced a number of expensive Oscar contenders in recent years including "Babel," "No Country for Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood" – is being almost entirely shuttered. Vantage exec VP Guy Stodel, who joined the studio in July, will take over day-to-day responsibilities for the label and will focus on acquisitions and international productions. The label's foreign sales unit will continue, headed by Alex Walton. Vantage has 18 months remaining on its foreign output deal with Overture Films, which includes the upcoming Michael Moore documentary.
Viacom layoffs come on the heels of a number of corporate reductions within the entertainment industry. In October, NBC Universal disclosed plans — solidified Thursday — to cut $500 million from its budget in 2009; staff cuts of 500, about 3% of its workforce, are part of the package. Time Warner gutted its Time Inc. division earlier this fall. Industry players and investors alike are waiting for the shoes to drop at other media congloms. News Corp. hasn't announced large-scale layoffs yet.
News of Viacom's belt-tightening came on the same day AT&T laid off 12,000 workers, while CEOs of the bankrupt Big Three automakers groveled in Congress for a financial bailout. This week a handful of major book publishers chopped jobs. Even the Masters of the Universe at white glove Carlyle Group axed 100 positions, as Carlyle became the first big private equity firm to cut staff thus far. And digital media company RealNetworks, which runs the Rhapsody online music service with MTV and is also a major player in Web gaming, announced Thursday that it is laying off about 130 people, 7.5% of its staff.
"Unfortunately, our advantages and best efforts can't completely protect Viacom from the very serious and broad-based challenges of this economic recession," wrote CEO Philippe Dauman and senior exec VP Tom Dooley in a memo to staffers. "Viacom's long-term health will depend on our shared commitment to adapt, to innovate and to make difficult choices. To compete and thrive, we need to create an organization and a cost structure that are in step with the evolving economic environment," they added.
Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone declined to comment Wednesday. But he's been battling on several fronts, trying to keep bankers at bay while he looks for ways to pay down some $1.6 billion in debt from his family holding company, National Amusements. He has already sold some $233 million worth of shares in Viacom and CBS, plus his entire 87% stake in Midway Games, to raise cash.
Most recently, he proposed to the banks a sale of some of National Amusements' movie theaters. Redstone is hoping he won't have to whittle down his media empire any further, but the prospect of a sale of more shares of Viacom or CBS continues to hover over the stocks like a dark cloud, as have jitters over the continued deterioration of ratings and revenue at MTV — something Wednesday's hefty programming writedown did little to assuage.
As part of the cost cutting, Viacom will also freeze salary increases for senior management. The company predicted the cuts would save $200 million-$250 million in 2009.
It said it will record a hefty pre-tax charge of $400 million-$500 million in the current fourth quarter. That comes only in part from the layoffs: The bulk of the charge is from writedowns on programming costs — from acquired programming that's run its course or no longer fits in with the network's demographic.
The charge also included costs of canceling leases as the company downsized this year from six New York locations to three.
The cuts cross all divisions, and some international staffers will also be let go. Company wouldn't break out the numbers but said they will be roughly proportional to the size of each business. Because MTV Networks has the largest staff within the Viacom universe, it took the hardest hit. However, the entertainment group — headed by Doug Herzog — has been largely unaffected.
"They've got 30 years of fat accumulated in that division," said one MTV Networks insider.
Paramount has instituted a series of cost-cutting measures — big and small — in recent months, with travel budgets and overtime being reduced significantly. A source said studio employees have been told there will be only one printer per floor of each building. In October, the studio moved two fall films, "The Soloist" and "Defiance," to 2009 in an effort to shift marketing costs to the new fiscal year.
Notification on the Viacom layoffs began Wednesday and is expected to be completed within three business days. For the majority, their last day will be today, although some will stay on for a transition period. Those affected will be paid through year's end with severance after that and some outplacement help. All contractual employees will be paid out through the end of their contracts.
Viacom shares, which have plunged more than 60% over the past year, were trading lower Wednesday, a down day for the broader market.

It's not always fun watching sausage get made, but the end result can be appetizing enough. That's our takeaway after reviewing fresh quarterly results for aircraft leasing and logistical services firm, Air Transport Services (ATSG).
The company's Q1 results include a wide range of streamlining efforts that should enhance margins in the quarters to come. Financial results appear solid enough right now, and should look even better down the road—all of which keeps ATSG a Buy on the Recommended List of our InsiderInsights Newsletter, amongst 33 other long positions.
Air Transport leases planes and crews to firms that need to transport goods. Global delivery firm DHL is Air Transport's largest customer, generating just over a third of revenues for ATSG. The U.S. military generates roughly another 15% of sales. Besides North America and Europe, Air Transport's planes service higher-growth markets, such as internal transport within Brazil, India and China. The company's regional aircraft fleet isn't deployed in the more cutthroat long-haul segment of air transport, and Air Transport has many of its assets under long-term leases.
Results continue the affected by the loss of a key contract in 2011 with logistics firm D.B. Schenker. So ATSG's results appear to have fallen from a year ago in the first quarter, but were actually slightly firmer on an organic basis. Results are surely being impacted by Air Transport's efforts to restructure its business, however, so it can provide its own logistics services. So margins are a bit depressed right now. Results in the June quarter should be similarly impacted.
Also of concern is the small note of caution from management during its last conference call, not only in the timing of new planes entering the fleet, but when and at what rates those planes are contracted for. So while ATSG still appears on track for almost $200 million in EBITDA this year, we wouldn't be surprised if that figure comes in closer to $175 million.
Cheap flight
Importantly, even with that potential disappointment later this year, ATSG remains a fairly cheap stock. The company has a market value of $360 million and an enterprise value (EV) of around $675 million, implying an EBITDA multiple below four times EV even if 2012 EBITDA is just $175 million. That's half the valuation of competitor Atlas Air Worldwide (AAWW). ATSG is half as dear on a price/sales basis as well compared to Atlas.
Granted, Air Transport is being understandably penalized for some sloppy execution in 2011 and exposure to potentially shrinking demand form the U.S. military, but the main concern for ATSG is arguably the same as for AAWW: a slowing global economy. So the extent of ATSG's discount to AAWW doesn't seem correct.
And what if economic Armageddon is avoided? If and when the global economy firms, lease pricing for planes is likely to materially strengthen, and Air Transport's EBITDA would spike past the $250 million mark. The full bullish scenario would be for ATSG's EBITDA to hit $250 million by 2014, spurred on by economic firmness. Such an environment should also allow investors to reward the stock with a higher EBITDA multiple closer to five. That would result in a target enterprise value of around $1.25 billion, implying a market value roughly 2.5 times higher than current levels.
Granted, the above contains many non-catastrophic assumptions, and thinking at all optimistically is tough to do in the present market environment. Heck, ATSG is off 25% from the highs it hit just last February due to the continuing macroeconomic pall hanging over financial markets. We fortunately bought ATSG well after investigating its prospects in the wake of a large cluster of buying by insiders late last summer. So we're still sitting on a 27% gain, and would have no problems taking our remaining profits now if we thought this stock couldn't fly again.
But we do, and note that ATSG's recent price weakness has the look of merely consolidating this stock's gains at logical technical supports. While ATSG's chart will no-doubt turn ugly in a hurry if Europe's debt problems turn contagious, so will those of most every stock. If that's you're major concern, you probably aren't and shouldn't be looking for any new long ideas.
Until Euro-geddon strikes, Air Transport's low valuation and sustainable looking fundamental growth appear confirmed by ATSG's still bullish-leaning insider profile. For investors willing to commit funds during this tense macroeconomic period for equities, ATSG remains a Buy.

Tougher Import Rules for FDA Imports in 2017
Link to Website
FDA and the Customs and Border Patrol Service (CBP) have become increasingly sophisticated and equally demanding in the submission of import information and adherence to government procedures. Firms that fail to understand and properly execute an import and export program find their shipments delayed, detained or refused. As of December 2016, FDA and CBP officially implemented the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) entry filing system. You either meet ACE requirements or face entry refusals and monetary penalties of up to $10,000 per offense. Other factors can derail the expectation of a seamless import entry process. The course covers detailed information about the roles and responsibilities of the various parties involved with an import operation and how to correct the weakest link(s) in the commercial chain. The course will include tips on how to understand FDA's thinking, negotiate with the FDA and offer anecdotal examples of FDA's import program curiosities.
Why you should attend:
What happens when your product is detained? FDA will begin a legal process that can become an expensive business debacle. You must respond fully within short timeframes. This is not the time for you to be on a learning curve. You need to have a plan in place and know what you are doing.
The FDA is steadily increasing the legal and prior notice information requirements. If you do not know what those requirements are and you initiate a shipment, your product is figuratively dead in the water. You must be accurate with the import coding information and understand the automated and human review process. If not, you can expect detained shipments. CBP is implemented a new "Automated Commercial Environment" computer program that changes import logistics and information reporting for FDA regulated products. Your shipment may be stopped before it is even loaded at the foreign port.
When products are refused, you have different options. Some options may cost more than others. For example, your product can be seized and destroyed by the government. You may be fined if you do not act in a timely manner. These are common problems that become prohibitively expensive. You should know how to avoid common problems or at least how to mitigate the cost by using established and effective business planning.
Learn how to deal with common problems, such as returns for repair, importing QC samples, and investigational products
On a positive note, the FDA is implementing the Voluntary Qualification Importer Program under the FDA Food Safety and Modernization Act. One other perk is that FDA offers export certificates, for a modest fee, which may give you a competitive advantage in foreign markets. In some cases, a FDA export certificate is required by foreign governments.

PSG's electrically driven four-diaphragm pumps are designed to convey extremely delicate biologically active molecules, similar to the human heart. Who knew a couple of million years of evolution developed the perfect device (the heart) to pump blood that contains albumin, gamma globulins, clotting factors and cells. Using similar technology, we've closely duplicated the principals of operation for the heart, to create a pump that features variable flow, accurate dosing, sanitary properties, and energy efficient, with long life.
Inside our four-diaphragm pumps, a variable motor turns an eccentric shaft that drives pistons to operate each of the individual diaphragms, while check valves ensure accurate volumetric efficiency. These four piston-diaphragm, positive displacement pumps, are suitable for use in multiple and single-use applications within the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. When pharmaceutical companies need low shear, low slip and low pulsation to pump biological organisms in aqueous suspension through specialized filtration equipment, they turn to PSG.

Game Experience (Frametime) Analysis
Game Experience (Frametime stutter) Analysis
Lately there has been a new measurement introduced, latency measurements. When you record a certain number of seconds of a recording whilst tracking the number of frames per second, then output that in a graph and then zoom in, you can see the turnaround time for the GPU. Basically the time it takes to render one frame can be monitored and tagged with a number in Milliseconds, this is latency. One frame can take, say 17ms. A colleague website discovered a while ago that there were some latency discrepancies in-between NVIDIA and AMD graphics cards with results being worse for AMD, especially in multi-GPU solutions. There is another problem with latency measurements, the vast majority of people don't like it, or don't understand it. Our forum reader base seems to really love this measurement, however when I asked some generic end users they just simply do not have a clue on how to interpret the charts based on latency measurements. We'll start off our reference reviews with some games analyzed.
But basically what these measurements show are anomalies like small stutters that you can sometimes (and please do read that well, sometimes) see on screen. Below, I'd like to run through some titles with you. Mind you, average FPS matters more than frametime measurements.
It's just an additional page or two of information that from now on we'll be serving you and these charts are intended for a more enthusiast reader base only.
So what are we looking at? Above, we recorded 60 seconds of the AVP benchmark. Each frame is recorded and output as latency, i.e. the time it takes to render one frame. Now if the GPU has an issue or if there is something going on in the PC, the stuff that you see on screen could result in a stutter or glitch. Now, in these charts if you see a spike, then the latency to draw a frame or multiple frames will go up dramatically. That effect translates to what you see on your monitor. This spike could mean a glitch or stutter that you see on your monitor for a fraction of a second (or repeatedly).
Above, Alien versus Predator measured over one minute. Absolutely flawless and smooth. The one spike in the middle of the chart is where the benchmark changes to another sequence.
Above, Hitman Absolution. The title is known for stuttering in the benchmark sequence with AMD cards. Realistically this looks bad, the reality however is that spikes from say 30ms up to 40ms you probably will not even notice, 50ms and above start becoming troublesome.
In the latest 13.3 Beta drivers AMD has addressed micro stuttering though the codebase for this was not included in the R7790 press driver. We'll retest one the new driver is final.
Above, Tomb Raider - butter smooth, the frametime latency is so low that it it almost can't be charted. We measured the standard benchmark for the first 30 seconds. Not one spike... really not one.
Above, Unigine Heaven - I wanted to include a synthetic test as well. Unigine Heaven is very well suited for that. over the 30 seconds measured there are two significant spikes. The reality is that this one translates into a small visible glitch on screen that you'll hardly even notice. In fact only with the trained eye can you notice these things.
This is my message to you guys, frametime measurements have been taken WAY out of proportion. What you see in these charts sometimes looks alarming with massive spikes, whilst your average end-user will never ever even see it on screen.
This is our first introduction with frame-time, or what I like to call Game Frame Experience measurements. Expect an extended dedicated article on this topic from us real soon.
We test and review the PowerColor Radeon HD 7850 SCS3 today. This stock clocked Radeon HD 7850 is cooled passively, meaning it has no fans tool it down. That also means it's rather silent as it does not make any noise. But what about temperatures then you must be wondering ?

Come see our top quality window treatments for yourself!
If you're looking for
commercial window treatments near Milpitas, you should consider installing plantation shutters. Plantation shutters
are a sophisticated alternative to mini blinds, vertical blinds, drapes,
and roller shades, and still are just as effective at controlling light
and saving energy. Here are just some of the reasons that you should opt
for plantation shutters for your commercial window covering needs.
One of the primary reasons that owners of commercial properties choose
plantation shutters over other commercial shutters is that they are incredibly
aesthetically pleasing. Plantation shutters are available in a wide variety
of sizes, colors, and materials, so it is very easy to choose the perfect
commercial window treatment for your apartment's existing décor.
Most commercial window covering companies offer plantation shutters in
natural wood, faux wood, vinyl, or plastic. You also have your choice
of the width of the plantation shutter's louvers, so you can create
a custom designed window treatment that allows as much light in as you want.
Durability and Cost
Of all of the commercial window covering options available, plantation
shutters are among the most durable and cost effective option. They are
far less expensive than custom window drapes, and because they last much
longer, they are often a more cost effective option than mini blinds or
vertical blinds. Plantation shutters often sustain far less wear and tear
than mini blinds, vertical blinds, and drapes because they are easier
to operate. This means that they won't need to be replaced or repaired
as often as other commercial window coverings for apartments. They are
also very low maintenance and easy to clean.

I couldn't wrap my mind about the stat – there are seven tons of plastic floating around Charleston Harbor. I'd a ton of crazy number since being assigned a story by my editor to investigate the possibility our community could go plastic-bag free, but this one truly hit home – after all, it was local.
Local or not, the statistic presented me as a journalist with a big problem – is this number real? How do I know? How can I present information to my readers they can trust… i.e. how can I present information like this without letting my personal biases get in the way?
It's a problem I face every time I publish anything for a newspaper of course, but it applies to everyone really. When it comes to politics, science, or anything else that riles people up, writing or talking authoritatively usings facts is a real issue. It's hard, it really is but critical if only you want to be able to look yourself in the mirror each day without calling yourself a bullshit artist.
In the case of my story and the consideration of the seven tons of plastic in Charleston Harbor stat, it came down to one document I tracked down, it's veracity, it's acceptability in the public realm, it's origin.
The question we ask in the news business – is it newsworthy?
Newsworthiness is a phrase that brings with it connotations of both truth and interest to the public – i.e. it's gotta be both true and useful. The funny thing about this stat is, I didn't even end up using it. All the same, I had to know.
Where did I get the number?
My research into the potential the community I cover going plastic bag free necessarily had to begin with the question of was plastic bag pollution of legitimate concern here where I live in Charleston? It was a question that needed answering before any other, as I didn't want to waste neither my nor my readers' time.
The only way to logically do this, in my mind, is to find out what proponents of the idea the Charleston Harbor or as a whole the Atlantic Ocean allege, what do they assert they have as evidence this is happening? For me in this case that meant researching what leaders of the conservation movement are saying about the issue and on top of that, because we're a community newspaper, we had to make it local. I needed to find someone connected with conservation on the ground level.
I found as as local, community souce on the story a gal who has served as the leader of the local beach clean-up for the past four years. In her eyes, at least for one, that Charleston Harbor was polluted with plastic was beyond question. I pressed her for her evidence, and she gave me some info.
In her info, the most compelling piece to hit me right off was the local evidence of plastic bags showing up during clean-ups of the area. She pushed me to investigate what the City had begun to do in recognition of the issue.
So I started digging into where the City of Charleston stood on the issue and came across the City of Charleston Plastic Bag Minimization Committee. As it would turn out on the suggestion of members of the community, Charleston Mayor John Tecklenburg had spearheaded the formation of the committee, which had formed following a pair of cities – Folly Beach and the Isle of Palms – became the first two cities in the state to initiate plastic bag bans.
The coalition/committee:
- Charleston County Environmental Management
- Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce
- Charleston Waterkeeper
- City of Charleston
- Citizens
- Medical University of South Carolina
- Keep Charleston Beautiful
- Lowcountry Local First
- South Carolina Aquarium
- South Carolina Coastal Conservation League
- Surfrider Foundation Charleston Chapter
And all of this is against the backdrop that the S.C. state legislature, specifically the state house of representatives, had recently voted – and by a 50-49 margin mind you – down a bill that would have banned cities from banning plastic bags, with the two cities that had already done so being grandfathered in.
I'm beginning at this point to believe the issue is real. But what about other states?
Oh yeah, it didn't take long to learn that other municipalities– even the states themselves, as in the case with California – had enacted plastic bag bans. The issue was certainly national.
The California state-wide ban made news across the country in 2014, particularly for the pushback sponsored by the plastic bag lobby – yes, that's a real thing – which is backed by, for one S.C.-headquartered plastic bags manufacturer Novexco.
But I digress….
The City of Charleston research didn't take long, as in their list of facts about plastic bags, I found what I was looking for, my diamond. Cited by the City themselves was a study on the presence of microplastics in Charleston Harbor – it was a Master's Thesis submitted by a grad. student at the College of Charleston in 2015.
Wertz, Hope. 2015. Marine debris in Charleston Harbor: Characterizing plastic particles in the field and assessing their effects on juvenile clams (Mercenaria mercenaria) Master's Thesis. College of Charleston.
But could I use this?
The bottom line when considering what is fact and what is opinion in material published on the web is there's no bottom line. You've got to take each case as an individual case, research, in this case, the university the facts were published from.
The answer is yes… for me. Ultimately, as a journalist, commentator or just a person wanting to get the facts right, there is NO system to make sure you're on the factual up and up.
You have to use your best judgement. Sorry for the bad news readers!

Mario Polèse has a piece about Why Big Cities matter More than Ever in, appropriately enough, City Journal.
He makes many worthwhile points. My favourite one (i.e. I already strongly agree) is that the rise of electronic communication at a distance intensifies (rather than reduces) the demand for face-to-face contact, and hence for transport. Not all information can be transmitted over wires or through the ether. That much can increases the value of face-to-face meetings (like this one for instance), because quality face-to-face teams can now influence and trade with the entire world.
Sample quote:
What about the argument that falling communications costs actually undermine urban concentration? For example, didn't the existence of e-mail encourage Silicon Valley companies to outsource computer programming to Bangalore, India? The truth is that this shift did foster urban concentration - in Bangalore.
Nice one.
As for falling physical transport costs causing physical dispersion, well, yes and no. Consider the live theatre business. Theatrical endeavour clusters in one spot (like Broadway or the West End of London), for all the usual reasons that businesses cluster (economies of scale - big pools of core professional talent - variety of ancillary professional talent - inside info - face-to-face contact (see above)), but good transport enables more punters to come to town, to witness these performances. Transport enables a dispersed population all to benefit from the same services, which it thus makes more sense to be concentrated in the big city.
Transport, in other words, isn't going anywhere.

A passenger on an MBTA bus was arraigned this week on charges he attacked the driver, even after she allowed him to ride for free.
Prosecutors said Donnell Flattes, 23, on Sunday allegedly threw an alcoholic drink on the driver, temporarily blinding her, and grabbed her breast after she asked him to step behind the yellow line as the bus traveled on Talbot Avenue.
He had attempted to pay his fare with paper bills, prosecutors said, but the fare machine was out of order, so the bus driver allowed Flattes to ride the bus for free.
The driver temporarily lost her vision and was forced to abruptly stop the bus when Flattes allegedly tossed an alcoholic beverage on her, prosecutors said.
As the driver waited at the location for a MBTA bus inspector, Flattes allegedly made a forceful attempt to place his unpaid fare into the driver's shirt pocket, indecently assaulting her in the process, prosecutors said.
Ignoring pleas from the bus driver and a fellow passenger to leave the victim alone, Flattes reached across the driver's body in an attempt to shut the open bus doors, prosecutors allege.
Flattes pleaded not guilty to multiple charges, including interfering with a bus driver, indecent assault and battery, possession of a Class D substance with intent to distribute, resisting arrest, and two counts each of assault and battery on a public employee and making threats to commit a crime.
He will return to court June 19.

As a keen gardener, I grow a lot of my own produce. I've written extensively on the subject of gardening and nature for My Weekly magazine.
Gardening is a constant battle against flooding, claggy soil, blackfly, slugs and snails. (It is for me, anyway!)
The sweet potato is native to the tropical regions of the Americas and is only distantly related to the potato family. Therefore, it's not the easiest plant to grow in our climate!
Sweet potatoes will not survive in cold temperatures. If you attempt to grow them outdoors in the UK, you'll need moisture-retentive, free-draining soil and a sheltered, sunny spot.How to grow sweet potatoes
I've recently been experimenting with salt and pepper squid. I've practised a few times now, and I'm starting to get the hang of it. I used prepared squid from the fishmonger as it's much easier than having to get rid of all the membrane yourself. If you do want to use whole unprepared squid, here's a link to a useful short video on its preparation:How to clean, prepare and cook squid
After preparing an oriental feast last night to celebrate Chinese New Year, here's a rough guide to making hot and sour soup – and cheating by using a soup paste sachet. I make this soup differently every time, depending on what ingredients are available.Ingredients
1 litre chicken stock
1 sachet of hot and sour soup paste
Shitake mushrooms
Cubes of tofu
Sliced bamboo shoots
Garden peas
Prawns (optional)
A few chopped finger chillies if you like it hot
Couple of cloves of finely chopped fresh garlic
A book I'd recommend is Eggs or Anarchy by William Sitwell. It tells the story of how Lord Woolton, Minister for Food, kept Britain fed during the Second World War.
With the public having to manage on limited rations, it was Lord Woolton's job to use his wits to stop black market profiteering and bring food to shelves of the country's larders. One of Lord Woolton's initiatives was to create recipes to help people maintain a nutritious diet, despite the shortages of many foods, particularly meat.Woolton Pie
The third Fleet Food Festival was another success with over 7000 visitors. The sun shone, the live music was great and the food fabulous.
Last year, you may remember, I came away from the Festival with a joint of wild boar to roast. This year we purchased a saddle of goat.
Apparently 19th April is National Garlic Day, so let's celebrate by roasting a whole garlic.
Allium sativum, commonly known as garlic, is a species in the onion genus, Allium. It's native to central Asia and has been used for both culinary and medicinal purposes for over 7000 years.
These are just a few of the claims made about the supposed health benefits of consuming garlic:
Back in September last year, I rashly proposed to attempt more Fanny Cradock recipes following my success with Fanny's Shrimp Cocktail.
I was planning to recreate Menu One from Ten Classic Dishes (with a menu for each) by Fanny Cradock. Menu One consists of Shrimp Cocktail, followed by Beefsteak and Kidney Pudding and Pie, with Mum's Trifle to finish.
My parsnips definitely wouldn't pass muster in a supermarket beauty parade. In Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's series, War on Waste, he highlights the huge amount of produce our supermarkets reject, particularly when it comes to imperfect veg.
This article in The Guardian: Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall rejects Morrisons' 'pathetic' wonky veg trial reveals the plight of ugly vegetables.
Thanks to my friend, Mandy, for this festive recipe. These are very moreish and make a nice change from all the sweet snacks around at Christmas.Ingredients for cheese pastry
113g (4oz) plain flour
85g (3oz) butter
85g (3oz) cheddar or parmesan cheese
Pinch of dry mustard
Pinch of salt
Sprinkle of cayenne pepper

A sport utility vehicle that crashed into a North Side garage while fleeing gunfire Saturday evening prompted Chicago police today to investigate the possibility of the car being linked to a methamphetamine operation.
About 6:30 p.m. Saturday, officers responded to a call of the gunfire in the 5800 block of North Broadway. Once they arrived in the area, they found the SUV had crashed into a brick garage in an alley behind the 5800 block of North Magnolia Avenue, said Chicago Police News Affairs Officer John Mirabelli.
Contents of the vehicle appeared hazardous, leading officers to call for firefighters to respond, Mirabelli said. Firefighters determined the contents weren't hazardous, but what they actually are is part of an investigation, he said.

For all that, Clinton argued, Obama has persevered, "committed to constructive cooperation" that could pay off in a second term backed by the voters in November. Never mind that Obama's dogged attempts to do business with the Republican leadership has been, and continues to be, grounds for relentless griping from liberal Democrats.
The former president's willingness to field the "are you better off" question, and to run unabashedly with it with a positive response, was a refreshing hint to Obama himself to make more of his efforts to avoid the fiscal precipice than he has done to date. Always with an eye on the electoral map, Clinton took note of 250,000 added auto manufacturing jobs resulting from the bailout that

For more information, contact Bob Brendel, I-70 SEIS Project Manager, (573) 751-8717.
JEFFERSON CITY - MoDOT is hosting an online public meeting about the possibility of truck-only lanes on Interstate 70 in Missouri. Along with information and video clips explaining the concept, the online meeting allows participants to ask questions, make comments and see other common questions and comments. Additionally, MoDOT has provided links to more detailed information on a range of technical and planning information.
The online meeting is posted to http://www.improvei70.org/ and will be available through Sept. 26.
"Our goal is to have as many people as possible participate in our process. We know that people across the state are interested in the idea of truck-only lanes. We also know that it isn't always easy or possible to go to a standard public meeting," said MoDOT Project Manager Bob Brendel. "In the spring we posted a video about truck-only lanes on YouTube, and more than 7,600 people watched it. Building on that experience we thought it was appropriate to conduct our next round of meetings electronically.
"We need and want public input. We want to make sure that our final plan is not only smart from an engineering standpoint, but also that it truly reflects the values and priorities of the taxpayers who support our transportation system."
The truck-only lane concept is being evaluated in comparison to widening I-70 to a minimum of six lanes across Missouri. The idea of separating long-haul trucks from everyday traffic has come out of public input on I-70, along with a national emphasis on creating greater efficiencies for the farms, stores and businesses that depend on trucks to ship their goods.
Those who prefer to talk with MoDOT representatives in person rather than electronically will have that opportunity via three listening stations scheduled across the state next month. The listening stations will take place at the following locations and times:
Sept. 9
4-6 p.m.
Wentville-Middendorf-Kredell Library
2750 Hwy. K
Sept. 10
11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Columbia Public Library

This Week In Real Estate Video #79 – What Settings Do You Use For Video?
October 11th, 2013
Matt Van Emmerik suggested that I ask readers what settings they use for video production. But when I was looking at his site, got distracted and fell in love with Matt's video of 451 Foster St, Victoria, BC, so I want to show it to you first. Victoria is such a fantastic place, and Matt's video does a wonderful job of showing off Victoria and this outstanding property! I've taken the trip from Seattle to Victoria on the SS Princess Marguerite II countless times and had tea at the Empress Hotel and biked around Victoria. Great fun!
Anyway, on the subject of settings Matt says:
I'm starting to get into the world of settings and what is the best to shoot at on the 5D Mark III camera which I shoot with as well as the 5D Mark II.
I have found some very interesting settings and factors to consider when shooting video on this camera (III) and I would love to see the string of info that is brought up with this topic from your followers and what settings they shoot at.
I have followed the settings from kriskoster.com with great results giving more flexibility in post. I know a lot of people are shouting Magic Lantern Magic Lantern, but full Raw shooting is not released yet for the 5D Mark III from what I understand.
So Matt's question is: "What settings do you use for real estate video production, what third party software and video editor do you use?"

Everything you need to understand or teach By the Sword by Mercedes Lackey.
The book's major theme is the necessity of honoring one's own calling and talents. This is shown primarily through Kerowyn's life and decisions.
When, at the very end of the story, she is "chosen" for new tasks in the realm of Valdemar, the theme takes on another aspect. Only through her faithfulness to earlier commitments does this chance become possible. While it promises an end to the hardscrabble life of a mercenary and the loneliness of command, these responsibilities were necessary to fit her for the next step in her life.
Honor is important in this entire series; not the honor of the hothead or braggart who is quick to take insult, but the honor which means one keeps one's commitments and defends those under one's protection. For years Kerowyn and her faraway lover Eldan fail to understand each other's codes of honor. Herald Eldan's loyalty to a...

Sensitivity of neutrinos to the supernova turbulence power spectrum: Point source statistics
The neutrinos emitted from the proto-neutron star created in a core-collapse supernova must run through a significant amount of turbulence before exiting the star. Turbulence can modify the flavor evolution of the neutrinos imprinting itself upon the signal detected here at Earth. The turbulence effect upon individual neutrinos, and the correlation between pairs of neutrinos, might exhibit sensitivity to the power spectrum of the turbulence, and recent analysis of the turbulence in a two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulation of a core-collapse supernova indicates the power spectrum may not be the Kolmogorov 5 /3 inverse power law as has been previously assumed. In this paper we study the effect of non-Kolmogorov turbulence power spectra upon neutrinos from a point source as a function of neutrino energy and turbulence amplitude at a fixed postbounce epoch. We find the two effects of turbulence upon the neutrinos—the distorted phase effect and the stimulated transitions—both possess strong and weak limits in which dependence upon the power spectrum is absent or evident, respectively. Furthermore, since neutrinos of a given energy will exhibit these two effects at different epochs of the supernova each with evolving strength, we find there is sensitivity to the power spectrum present in the neutrinomore »
