Ron Dennis has denied allegations that he was responsible for setting up the Max Mosley sex video scandal. It has been suggested that McLaren may have facilitated the News of the World investigation in response to the $100 million fine they received from FIA last year.
The accusation was made by Radovan Novak, head of the Czech Automobile Association and one of Mosley's close friends. Speaking during a radio interview he's quoted as saying, "When the FIA, from the proposal of Mosley, fined someone significantly, then it gives you the feeling that it could be like that."
Dennis was quick to issue a response:
"I categorically deny that I have anything to do with the News of the World investigation into Mr. Mosley. Neither does anyone connected with the McLaren Group or the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team, and neither does any agent or any other party acting on my behalf or anyone connected with the McLaren Group or the team. We are writing to Mr. Novak and are currently considering the appropriate route via which the remarks that have been attributed to him may be withdrawn or corrected."
FIA's general assembly will meet on June 3rd for a vote of confidence that will decide Mosley's future with the organization. We're betting the Nazi-orgy aficionados do not make up a voting majority. [via Autocar]

The LaVanila Laboratories collection consists only of natural ingredients. The products found in the range are free of petrochemicals, phthalates, silicones, sulfates, parabens and synthetic colorants and fragrances. From sensual scents to effective sun protection, the collection offers a wide variety of natural alternatives to everyday, chemical-laden skin care and fragrance products. Start shopping the LaVanila Laboratories range now to treat your skin to the benefits of vanillin and a host of other natural extracts.
No Sulfates, Parabens, Petrochemicals, Phthalates, Silicone, Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oils, Silicone, Synthetic Fragrance or Dyes.
The ancient Mayans and Aztecs revered the vanilla plant, praising it for its benefits at treating illness. Modern science has verified that these early peoples were correct in their assumptions; the vanilla plant contains the phenol vanillin that is rich in antioxidants, nutrients that limit the oxidizing effects of free radicals. Not only does vanillin help fight disease, but when applied topically, it also has the ability to nurture and nourish the skin, leaving it soft and healthy. The LaVanila Laboratories fragrance and skin care collection makes it easy to pamper the skin while enjoying scents inspired by nature.
Even if you're making the admirable effort to seek out the full range of skincare products necessary to both adequately nourish your skin and achieve the healthy and vibrant-looking complexion you deserve, you still may be encountering too many formulas that aggravate and irritate when they should soothe. Often this is due to formulations including numerous synthetic chemicals such as petrochemicals and preservatives.
LaVanila Laboratories makes an unwavering effort to formulate its beauty products without the use of such potentially harsh artificial agents, relying instead on naturally sourced and organic ingredients such as botanicals and essential oils.
The brand's name stems from the word for "vanilla" in Madagascar, which produces some world-class examples of that lauded bean. Founder Danielle Raynor began incorporating vanilla into many of her skincare and cosmetic formulas, treasuring the ingredient not just for its intoxicating aroma and flavor but also as a rich source of antioxidants (which can ward against the free radicals that can promote premature aging). Raynor created LaVanila to formulate body-care and beauty products concocted from such natural--and naturally beneficial--components as vanilla, as opposed to synthetic chemicals that can be detrimental both to skin health and the environment.
The LaVanila line includes an impressively varied collection of products, from sunscreens and baby lotions to body washes, deodorants, and a plethora of fragrances. They all share the brand's dedication to ecologically responsible and non-aggravating ingredients. The company pledges that its creations are appropriate even for those suffering from sensitive skin.
Choosing natural beauty products over ones that contain potentially harmful chemicals, synthetic colors, and artificial fragrances is a step in the right direction when it comes to caring for your skin. Avoiding all of these harsh ingredients as much as possible, the formulas of LaVanilla Laboratories Products offer refreshing, skin-friendly solutions for a variety of skincare needs including cleansing, moisturizing, and protecting capabilities. Even their line of fragrances relies on natural botanicals and other ingredients to deliver refreshing scents without any of the danger of chemical additives.
Each of the LaVanilla Laboratories Products is healthy, natural, and delightful. Their refreshing formulas infuse both the mind and the body with a rewarding sense of renewed vitality that lingers long after using them. Feel free to browse through the current listings of LaVanilla Laboratories Products and find something new to feel good about as you begin to use an all-natural formula that treats your skin the way that it deserves.
Offering uniquely fragrant formulas that are blended with only natural ingredients, the full line of LaVanilla Laboratories Products provide gentle solutions for many of your skincare needs.
For a experience based in exotic, skin-softening luxury, try the hydrating formula of LaVanilla The Healthy Body Butter Vanilla Coconut. Infused with the powerful antioxidant capabilities of Kakadu Plum and Goji Berry, this moisturizing body butter also contains Cocoa and Shea Butters, creating a silky smooth feeling to your skin. An all-natural product, it does not contain any of the following potentially harmful ingredients: Synthetic Dyes, Propylene Glycol, Sulfates, Aluminum, Petrochemicals, Silicone, Phthalates, Parabens, Mineral Oils, or Sulfates. This moisturizer delivers the benefits of 30 Essential Vitamins and Minerals to your skin.
An all-natural deodorant, LaVanilla The Healthy Deodorant Vanilla Lavender offers a gentle, freshly scented formula that does not contain Silicone, Phthalates, Parabens, Aluminum, Petrochemicals, Synthetic Dyes, Propylene Glycol, Sulfates, or Mineral Oils. Its calming blend of essential oils provides the power of strong antioxidants as well as beta glucan technology in order to protect and nourish your skin. This deodorant includes the delightful scents of rose, lavender, Madagascar vanilla, and violet leaf.

Bonnie Durrett had 12 points and 13 rebounds to lead the Lady Tornado effort against the top team in the conference.
GAFFNEY, S.C. – Trailing by 11 against conference-leading Limestone with 2:38 left, King went on an 8-0 run to cut the Limestone lead to 65-62 with 31 seconds to go. However, the Saints made their final six free throws, and the Lady Tornado rally came up just short, losing 71-62.
King never led and trailed by as many as 19 in the second half, but gave a valiant effort to get back into the game. Sophomore Bonnie Durrett (West Paducah, Ky.) led the Lady Tornado with 12 points and 13 rebounds and was one of seven players to score at least six points for King.
King now sits at 12-11 (8-11 Conference Carolinas), but still holds a one game lead over Lees-McRae for the all-important eighth spot in the conference. Only the top eight teams make it to the Conference Carolinas Tournament next month.
Maria Young scored 25 points to help Limestone improve to 21-2 (18-1) on the season.
The Lady Tornado have a crucial three-game home stand to conclude the regular season. The first of these matchups will be at the Student Center Complex against Coker on Saturday, February 23 with tip-off scheduled for 2:00 p.m. The men's game will follow to conclude the doubleheader.

The energy markets and the currency markets provide the biggest stories for today, even with major financial markets (stock & bond futures) somewhat subdued before the big Non-farm payrolls number tomorrow morning at 7:30CST. In the ECB meeting this morning, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said weak activity is expected to continue in Eurozone economies. With that said, the DEC12 E-mini S&P 500 is still up slightly on the day thus far, trading at 1411, or up .23%.
The U.S. bond futures are up alongside the E-mini S&P 500, trading up .27%. Anyone trying to pick a long term top in the U.S. bond market has likely been met with frustration over the past several years. We hear chatter of a bond market bubble. And no one rings a bell at the top. But, we need to get through the budget/tax discussions successfully before the stock market can really get some legs to a rally, thus potentially causing a slide in bond prices. If anything, we have heard a lot of discussion about how to plan for a potential massive sell off in JGBs, or Japanese Government Bonds.
The big stories today though are in energy and currency markets. In the energy markets, crude oil is really feeling the effects of increased supply. Front month crude (JAN13) is trading down $1.76 today, and is approaching our first key target of $82. We think it could head lower from there as well. RBOB Gasoline also has had a fairly strong selloff over the past few sessions, and we look for this down move to continue. JAN13 RBOB gasoline is trading down 3.3 cents at $2.605. Our next key downside levels are $2.54 and then $2.44.
In currency news, the two biggest stories today are the Euro and the Aussie dollar. The Euro is having a lot of selling today after the ECB meeting. Even though rates were held steady, Draghi seemed to open the door for future rate cuts, thus the Euro sold off a lot, now trading at 129.69, or down 109 ticks. The Aussie dollar is doing the opposite, trading up 42 ticks today, and breaching 1.05 to the upside. Our technical first upside target for the Aussie dollar futures is 1.0575.

DANVILLE, Va. —
Virginia State Police say a pilot was killed in a fiery plane crash at an airport in Danville.

Geller says the pilot, a man from Danville, was the only person on the plane. His remains have been sent to the medical examiner's office in Roanoke for positive identification and an autopsy.

I'm looking for some new options for party shoes. Do you have any suggestions?
It's party season, which means it's time to put on your dancing shoes! As seasonal celebrators ourselves, we have identified the fashion fundamentals of the perfect party shoe and are happy to share our insights. 1. Comfort is key. The longer you can stand at a party with a smile on your face, the happier you (and your date!) will be. To help ease aching feet, look for a shoe with a platform; it gives you the illusion of a higher heel without the pain of one. A contrasting colour platform in red or gold feels fresh and fun. 2. Go for texture and shine. Reach outside your comfort zone and try a shoe with visually interesting details like glitter, spikes, or lace. They feel special and miraculously go with everything (think: a floral skirt and a spike-covered stiletto or a glitter pump paired with a striped dress). If you're married to your LBD for the holidays, these little beauties will add instant allure to your holiday look. 3. Consider a festive ankle boot. We are fans of untraditional pairings for party outfits, like a delicate lace dress and a strong, black ankle boot or a swingy vintage dress paired with a modern bootie. Booties work well with tights and dresses as well, the combination of which will keep your tootsie warm and happy late into the night. And while you can definitely pick a pair in neutrals like black or nude, we are personally tickled by bolder choices like leopard, velvet, or anything embellished.

Hospital opens new birthing unit for blizzard babies
Babies born at peak of storm
Hospital opens new birthing unit for blizzard babies
Babies born at peak of storm
MERRIAM, Kan. —
Heavy snow won't shut down hospitals and it won't keep babies from coming.
Shawnee Mission Medical Center moved patients into its brand-new birthing unit as the storm approached Monday evening.
Four babies were born there overnight and a fifth arrived while KMBC 9's Haley Harrison was visiting the hospital Tuesday.
Tracey and Chris Enser said they showed up at the hospital at 7 a.m. in time for a scheduled induced labor.
"I wasn't really surprised about having a baby in the middle of a blizzard or a big snowstorm," Tracey Enser said. "It will be a good story to tell when she's a little bit older."
The couple lives across the street from the hospital, so they didn't have to deal with a long drive to get there.

Desai '93 on AIDS in India for Acclaimed New Book
Booker Prize-winning author Kiran Desai '93 was one of sixteen Indian writers who traveled across the country to document the HIV/AIDS crisis for the new book AIDS Sutra: Untold Stories from India.
Along with authors Salmon Rushdie, Siddhartha Deb, Nikita Lawani and others, Desai provides "a uniquely intimate glimpse into a disease that is either sterilized by statistics or ignored altogether," said a recent review in Time Magazine.
Desai writes about her journey to the coast of Andhra Pradesh, where many of the local girls are forced into the deep-rooted and widely accepted sex trade:
On the streets of a village we drove through, I noticed an overabundance of beds. Beds being delivered, new old beds, makeshift stage set beds, cheap beds being varnished in the sun, mattresses in the dust. Around this strangeness of beds proliferating, village life seemed as benign as Narayan's Malgudi stories that had created my idea of what it meant to be Indian in this world, in the sweetest incarnation possible. Little shops for cigarettes and sweets; cows wandering; men riding cycles on their way to the banana market by the river's edge, bananas tied to the handlebars, their colour macaw shocking-green and yellow, green and yellow, the greenest green and the yellowiest yellow. Sound of water pouring into pails, out of pails. A jeep going by with some policemen poking their heads out. This world was normal.
Except it was really entirely something else.
For her 2006 novel The Inheritance of Loss, Desai became the youngest woman ever to win Britain's prestigious Man Booker Prize for Fiction. More recently, the international best-seller earned her the National Book Critics Circle Award.

The 34-year-old actress was scheduled to join Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at an event for World Refugee Day but Hillary has canceled her day's events (she needs surgery after falling and breaking her elbow on Wednesday while en route to the White House).
Hillary's chief of staff Cheryl Mills said in a statement, "On the way to the White House late this afternoon, Secretary Clinton fell and suffered a right elbow fracture. She was treated at The George Washington University Hospital before heading home."
Today, Angie will appear also on CNN's Anderson Cooper 360.

Also I realized something when I did some looking Lucy said she had 2 kinds of keys not that there were only 2 kinds so I'm figuring there is probably a god set and maybe a dragon set. I'm thinking lost art that requires a large enough amount of magic that most mages can't even survive making the contract.
I wonder if they'll ever let Lucy get into caster magic like Heavenly body spells.

I found something interesting there is a reference to Celestial Dragons in chapter 75 after Natsu and company find out Loki is a spirit Natsu starts talking about he wants one a dragon so he can fight. Now Lucy yells at him for wanting a spirit just to fight but says nothing to indicate Celestial Dragons don't exist. I'm thinking between 3-4 depending on whether or not Serpens is one the term serpent has been used interchangably with dragon in mythology.
Also I was wondering cursed in a side story or something cause I keep reading comments that she's like Sakura which would take a severe negative transformation in terms of apperance and personality and also require her powers to be greatly weakened. Which is why I was thinking she might have been cursed at some point.
note: I know 2 posts in row is frowned upon but it's been over a month between the 2 so I'm figuring it's not a big issue in this case.

Yes, there are definitely hints and signs pointing to Lucy, but the big thing is... we still don't know exactly what. Currently, the theory is that Layla had some connection to the dragons, and thus why she died the same year they disappeared (something I'm surprised the characters didn't connect with). And we don't know how Layla died, or even if Lucy knows how. With her father now dead, he might have taken a secret or two to his grave (although maybe left some clues with other people).
As for the current arc, all we know is that they want Lucy as a Celestial Mage. We're not sure why that is; whether it has to be Lucy herself because she's special somehow, or whether she's probably the strongest Celestial Mage right now and they need the strongest they can find and Lucy is right there.

Currently Listening to: 4Minute Volume Up
Well according to the title for the next chapter-
Oh yeah possible manga spoiler here
It seems like they may want her powers for some sort of Eclipse thingy. It makes sense they would want a celestial mage. But like you said, we don't know why they need Lucy specifically. Like what about her makes her that much more special than other celestial mages? She has the most golden keys, and she can cast urano Metria, but i think it has more to do with her mother.

She has 10 already so yeah, I'm guessing so too. I guess to unlock that gate thingy they need the 12 keys. Kind of answers why they need her specifically, but wondering what consequences that might entail.
BTW, wondering but who does everyone ship Lucy with? By everyone i mean you personally? For me, i always found her cute with either Natsu or Gray tbh.

Well, technically 10 keyholes are visible, but given the design, the other two keyholes are hidden by the text bubble. They could be other keys, though, but I have a feeling the last two gold keys will make an appearance. So they need a strong Celestial Mage with all twelve keys, and Lucy is the closest.
I can't help but wonder, though, if this is how Lucy's mother died. Since apparently it takes the life of a Celestial Mage to open the gate, Lalya might have opened it before for some reason.
And shipping discussions are always dangerous, and currently I'm happy with the level of shipping in the show (most relegated to the background). But I'd lean towards Natsu, even though I don't quite see them as couple material yet. Gray's developed a few too many connections with Juvia which makes me want to see him with her at this point.

lol i never got why shipping characters together got people upset. It's not like any of them are real people, at the end of the day, they are still fictional characters. So as long as no one bashes it seems fine. But, maybe i just come with a different perspective.
Though i do remember always reading about the sipping wars of Twilight. Some of those fangirls turned it into an art form rofl.
Anywho, i always liked her with Natsu. I would sip her with Loke if it didn't seem so taboo. I don't really with Gray, i just think they're cute together lol.
Apparently Juvia ships them though XD

lol seem here. I imagine we won't know who ends up with who until like the last 10 minutes of the very last episode or last couple [ages of the final chapter and we flash-forward into the future.
Hm i wanna see Lucy do a Unison Raid between 3 people. She seems to be the one able to do them most. I don't really let the difference between a UR and just combining attacks, since sometimes, like when Lucy and Wendy did one, it just seemed like they were merging their attacks together.

Officials say heavy snow can lead to roofs collapsing
Winter storms taking a toll on NH snow budgets
CONCORD - State officials are warning residents of the danger of roof collapse, with the third major snowstorm this month with up to a foot expected particularly in central New Hampshire.
The storm may dump a 12 inches of heavy, wet snow, which may be followed by rain in parts of the state, according to the Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management (DHSEM).
The greatest snow accumulations are expected in interior portions of the state except for the North Country.
"Snow accumulations on flat roof commercial or institutional buildings pose the greatest threat," said Perry E. Plummer, DHSEM acting director. "We urge building owners or managers to monitor their buildings, ensure that roof drains are clear and to remove snow as soon as that can be safely accomplished."
He said homeowners also should remove snow from buildings using snow rakes from the ground. If roofs need to be shoveled, that should be done by contractors with the proper experience and insurance.
Plummer said building owners and managers should be sure to clear snow from building exits, gas connections and vents.
The winter storm warning posted by the National Weather Service remains in effect through Thursday afternoon. Plummer urged residents and visitors to monitor weather conditions via broadcast, Internet sources, or NOAA weather radio.

text: Student Profiles Nicole Melas '07 Nicole Melas '07 Hometown: Los Angeles, California Major: Urban Studies and the Built Environment Why did you choose to come to Bowdoin? I was looking for a change of pace from Los Angeles and city life in general. And I figured that if I were to be out of the city, I would like to be some place that takes advantage of its setting. I thought that the Outing Club and Coastal Studies Center were signs that Bowdoin makes use of its location in Maine and on the coast and offers its students opportunities to get off campus. Then, on the more instinctive side: I really enjoyed my visit during the spring of my senior year of high school. It was my first time in Maine. It must have been one of the first days of spring weather because everyone on campus was running around and dancing outside in tank tops while I was clutching to a fleece. But the excitement and energy of those students rubbed off on me. I bought a sweatshirt and—driving out of town—said, "Mom, I think I'll be coming back here in the fall." And that was it. Why did you choose your major? I had heard of other students designing a similar major and my advisor-to-be, Professor Jill Pearlman, encouraged me to do the same. In other words, indecision and an interest in many things led me to create my major, Urban Studies and the Built Environment, which includes a smattering of courses from various departments including Environmental Studies, Sociology, Visual Arts, History, and Art History. What courses and professors have you especially enjoyed at Bowdoin? A few courses stand out for me, and the smaller classes, such as the seminars, have been the best overall. Most recently, I took The City as American History, a 200-level historiography seminar taught by History and Environmental Studies professor Matt Klingle. The professor carried the class and led discussions so well that it felt like one of those great academic exchanges of which I typically just dream. It was also refreshing and humbling to take such an engaging and challenging seminar my senior year. Sophomore year, I took a seminar with Environmental Studies professor Jill Pearlman on Home: History, Culture and Design of Housing in North America. Her enthusiasm for the subject—the houses, their styles/designs and the architects—was contagious and made me glad to have chosen my major. Earlier on at Bowdoin, Professor Genie Wheelwright taught my Spanish 102 class so enthusiastically and with so much interaction and involvement from the students that it was one of my first favorites. Also, I've taken an art class each semester for the past couple years. They have been so well taught, formative and a great change of pace from my other classes. Painting I with Professor Jim Mullen was an especially memorable experience thanks to his great jokes and tips, and to the class, who bonded over a semester together in our studio spaces. Have you engaged in any independent research while at Bowdoin? I'm doing my first independent study right now. I definitely wish I had started to do these before now! I'm interested in how people respond to their architectural environments and to each other within them. I'm building off of William H. Whyte's research on the use of public plazas in New York City in the 1970s. This research sought to determine why some places were popular while others weren't. As it is winter, rather than observe outdoor spaces, I hope to examine the coffee shops in Brunswick. Currently, I'm reading up on the notion of "the third place," a phrase coined by Ramon Oldenburg and meaning someplace other than work and home, where people go regularly and are known—and will eventually start passing hours, sipping tea, watching and talking to people in the coffee shops. It's exciting to create and reformulate my focus—with much help from my advisor! What extracurricular or work experiences have you had at Bowdoin? I work as a Writing Assistant for the Writing Project, which has been a great learning experience for me. The position has given me confidence working with other writers; and a fringe benefit of the job has been reading papers from courses I wish I could have taken. I have also played for the Women's Rugby Team and was especially involved with the team during my first few years at Bowdoin. Now, although I'm increasingly involved with the Bowdoin Outing Club (BOC), I still hold the rugby team close to my heart as those teammates were my first Bowdoin family. My most memorable extracurricular time has become that spent with the BOC—leading Pre-Orientation trips, doing Leadership Training, sea kayaking in the rain, learning to whitewater canoe, repair a bike and telemark ski, and just going off campus somewhere on the weekend to see a little more of Maine. This year, I'm one of the elected officers and have an excuse to spend much time at the Schwartz Outdoor Leadership Center; it has been educational and fun to see more behind-the-scenes, but going on trips is still the best! The BOC—with its fabulous directors and leaders—has made my college experience. Did you study abroad during your time at Bowdoin? During the Spring 2006 semester, I went on a program called International Honors Program (IHP) on Cities in the 21st Century. Twenty-nine students and four faculty traveled to many cities, using them as case studies for global urban issues. We began in New York City with a 10-day introduction, then were off to Brazil (three weeks in Rio de Janeiro; two weeks in Curitiba), South Africa (four weeks in Cape Town) and France (five weeks in Paris). I hoped the program would quench my travel bug, but instead it made me want to explore more. We lived with host families and had city coordinators, locals who put us in touch with local professors, professionals and programs of interest. I saw and experienced so much! I'm still processing that semester and am so glad to have done it. What have you done during your summers? Each summer has been different. My first, I lived at home and did clerical work at a nearby private beach club. My second, I worked for Overland (a company that leads community service, language, hiking and biking trips), based in Williamstown, Massachusetts, supporting and occasionally leading trips. Last summer, after finishing my abroad program, I traveled in Europe on a Faculty Scholars Grant I received from Bowdoin. I'm thinking of spending this summer in Maine to round off a great year back at Bowdoin. What is your best Bowdoin memory? One of my favorite memories is a sendoff party two senior members of the rugby team threw for a group of us juniors last year before we parted ways to study abroad. We got together for food and games. We played Mad Libs and ended up creating a story that described a battle, which we decided to act out. As it was December, we bundled up and rushed out onto the quad at Brunswick Apartments and began to tackle each other randomly in the snow. Because I grew up in Southern California, playing in the snow with friends is still quite novel and I have fond memories of that "battle." What are your plans for after graduation? I really don't know. Time will tell! What advice would you give to a prospective student or first-year about the Bowdoin experience? I have two things. Talk to as many people as you can, whenever you can, to get additional perspectives and ideas. And: Do what you like to do. The resources are here, but it is up to you to find and use them. What quirky or fun thing did you wish you knew before you came to Bowdoin? I wish I knew how much people at Bowdoin are into theme parties. Had I known, I could have brought costumes from home. But, then again, I have really enjoyed exploring the secondhand shops in Brunswick with friends. There is nothing like walking into town with a couple friends and trying on ridiculous combinations of clothes the day before Halloween! And you really can't plan for that.

The standard halogen replacement bulb is dimmer and yellowish compared to newer car headlights. The Vision X bulbs are a nice improvement for the price point. They are definitely whiter and a bit brighter. Well worth the marginal cost increase over a standard halogen bulb. If you want a moderate improve at minimal added cost then you will be very pleased.

Manchester considers new trash policiesBy TED SIEFER
New Hampshire Union Leader
June 16. 2014 10:54PM
MANCHESTER — The city is considering placing limits on the amount of bulky items residents can leave at its drop-off facility and ending trash pickup at multi-unit and commercial buildings.
The proposals, discussed Monday at a meeting of the aldermen's Special Committee on Solid Waste Activities, were among a slate of ideas put forward by public works officials earlier this year to generate revenue and savings.
Mark Gomez, the city's Environmental Programs Manager, told the committee that restoring the fee for dropping off bulky items —such as appliances, furniture and scrap metal — would generate revenue, while discouraging landlords and contractors, including those from outside the city, from abusing the system.
"It's difficult for our employees to distinguish between residents and commercial users who might be masquerading as residents," he said.
Businesses are supposed to pay a 7-cent-per-pound fee to dispose bulky items.
Gomez told the committee that the drop-off facility currently operates at a $200,000 loss to the city, a deficit that can be traced in large part to ending the universal bulky fee.
But Ward 1 Alderman Joyce Craig, the chairman of the committee, said reimplementing the fee would create other problems. "We did this because it kept people from leaving large items in the alley and the street," she said.
The committee instead opted to limit free drop-offs to two trips and 10 bulky items a year, which, the aldermen reasoned, would serve to crack down on businesses abusing the system.
Gomez also recommended ending municipal trash pickup for commercial and multi-unit residential buildings. He noted that Manchester was unique in offering free trash pickup for such buildings; neither Nashua or Lowell, Mass., do so.
The committee wanted to know how many buildings would be affected by such a change and where they were located, so it tabled the matter while directing the public works department to report back with the information.
Other changes discussed by the committee included the installation of 12 outdoor public recycling receptacles, which were funded by a grant from a national nonprofit, over the next few weeks.
The committee also briefly discussed pay-as-you-throw, the per-bag charge officials said could have saved the city $3.5 million a year. The aldermen did not advance the idea after an overwhelmingly negative reaction from residents.
Still, the aldermen have yet to officially discard the proposal.
"We still think pay-as-you-throw would be a good thing for Manchester and hope to be able to continue to discuss it in the future," Gomez said.

Her biggest fear was going out first on Koror. And then she was crying on insider video's twice because she thought she might be voted off.If she leaves, it is because they vote her out, not because she quits
TrixiegoMESS Moderator(4/8/05 2:04 pm)ezSupporter Re: S10 Ep 9 - Challenge(s)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ILJT - FWIW, I heard from someone the same information about Janu; whether or not it happens, we'll see but so far everything I have been told has been accurate and this is purported to happen at TC.As far as Stephenie not getting voted out....I'll come up with some reasons for the hell of it
TrixiegoMESS Moderator(4/9/05 8:04 am)ezSupporter Re: Educational Guess of next eps based on vid caps + spoile-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Trix are you saying you heard Janu effectively quit?--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Yeah, that is what I heard and that it happens at TC but not this week. And I think it is completely and entirely possible Caryn wins this IC. Gregg wrote her off completely; she is supposed to go next (how the Stephenie situation doesn't enable her to get booted; I made various examples, ANYTHING is possible)If Caryn doesn't go cuz she is immune and Coby is noted to be a threat and Stephenie somehow manages to escape either by a freebie ala Lil/Burton or someone else's influences, Coby could go
MersaydeezRegistered User(4/4/05 10:10 pm)Reply ezSupporter Re: Just some spoilers...-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------But then later, that seems to change to Jenn and Stephenie being in the final 6. Does Caryn make it or not?--------------------------------------------------------------------------------I called Caryn as 5th a few weeks ago, so yes. Caryn is in the final 6. I originally had Stephenie in my final 6, because I misinterpeted something my source had said, but after going over it with my source again, I corrected it a few days later. It can definitley be confusing if you have only read the first couple pages. I changed my first post so there wouldn't be any confusion, but I had left all the others in between.And Thumpus is correct, from a reward that happens around the final 6, I put Jen in there as the other person.To everyone who wrote haiku's... those were all so funny! Loved them. Thanks. darsharrah Ian wins an immunity challenge that involves coconuts that happens the same episode as Stephenie's boot. If I get anymore, I will post it here.Quote:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------I've also been wondering, if it is indeed a Tom/Katie Final Two, do you know who wins out of those two? And do you know anything about Ian "exiting gracefully" or if TheGame is just full of crap?--------------------------------------------------------------------------------My source would never know for sure who wins between the two if they are still doing that live vote... but my source has said that Katie backstabs a few people and my source always talked about Tom in a very positive light, I know that isn't the answer you were looking for but I hope that helps.
The issue I have with Exile....is how can they send one perosn off to be alone. They would get there late in the evening depending on when the challenge ends...they will have to collect fire wood, start a fire from scratch, row to an island alone, find drinking water and more. Would they have a machete? Pot to boil water? Shelter well to bad so sad just tlike the frist day. Seems risky
That was Jonny Fairplay and his friend. They got the camp while the rest had to go elsewhere. I would have killed that lying rat. lol

Yuvraj's innings was the saving grace
Ajantha Mendis took six wickets for 67 runs as the famed Indian batting line-up struggled despite Yuvraj Singh's brisk century and Gautam Gambhir's 89 on Day 2 in the three-day warm-up match against Sri Lanka Board President's XI, at the Colts Cricket Club Ground, in Colombo, on Wednesday.
Yuvraj counter-attacked with a smashing innings of 118 from 146 balls, inclusive of 11 boundaries and six sixes, before he was bowled by Sachithra Senanayake.
Replying to the home team's mammoth first innings total of 514 for nine declared, the Indians were bundled out for 291 at the fag end of the day.
Image: Yuvraj Singh
Gambhir too looked in good touch
Gambhir was the other Indian batsman to make a sizeable contribution, scoring 89 from 134 balls. He added 143 runs for the fifth wicket with Yuvraj before he was dismissed by Mendis.
It was a poor show by the Indian batsmen against Sri Lanka's second string bowlers. Virender Sehwag (18) and Rahul Dravid (11), Sachin Tendulkar (4) and VVS Laxman (6) also fell cheaply.

Mendis spins his magic
Left-arm pacer Chanaka Welegedara shocked the Indians early with the wickets of Sehwag (18) and Dravid (11), who were both bowled.
Mendis then began weaving his spin magic and his first victim was Sachin Tendulkar (4), who fell leg before.
The stylish VVS Laxman arrived at the crease but his stay was cut short as Mendis, who had him caught by Prassana Jayawardene behind the wicket, leaving India tottering at 80 for four.
Gambhir, who was holding one end brilliantly, found an able ally in Yuvraj and the two left-handers rescued India with their terrific partnership.
Mendis was at it again as he separated the pair by scalping Gambhir.
Mendis then quickly wrapped up the innings by sending back Ishant Sharma and Pragyan Ojha.
Image: Ajantha Mendis
Ojha was the Indians' most successful bowler
Earlier, Pragyan Ojha took five for 153 to emerge the most successful Indian bowler, while Amit Mishra claimed two for 125.
Dinesh Chandimal finished unbeaten on 47 from 71 balls, as the hosts lost their last four wickets for 46 runs before declaring their first innings.
Upul Tharanga (110), Thilan Samaraweera (102), Thilan Kandamby (101) hit centuries on the opening day to punish a second-string Indian bowling line-up, missing all their frontline bowlers.

2012 World Series of Poker Rookie Roundup: Viktor "Isildur1" Blom
We were first introduced to our final Rookie Roundup selection in November of 2009, and initially Team PokerStars Pro Viktor" Isildur1" Blom was just a mysterious ninja avatar from Sweden that had more violent swings than Gary Sheffield on HGH. During his first 24-hour session on Full Tilt Poker, Isildur1 played nearly 3,500 hands and won $347,000 — the vast majority of which came from the now retired Haseeb Qureshi. Two weeks later, the Swede battled Tom "durrrr" Dwan for over four days, starting at $300/$600 NLHE, and eventually moving as high as $500/$1,000 NLHE. When the dust finally settled, Isildur1 had taken $3 million from Dwan, and had become the most fascinating online poker player in the world.
Astonishingly, only three weeks after crushing Dwan, Isildur1 was $1.2 million in the red. Patrik Antonius won $2.9 million from Isildur1 during a two-day, marathon session, and then Antonius beat the Swede out of $2.1 million a few days later. Phil Ivey swooped in and won $2 million from Isildur1, and Ilari "Zigmund" Sahamies profited as well. During this stretch of 10 days or so at the end of November 2009, Isildur1 played all five of the largest online poker pots in history, including a monstrous, $1.3 million-chip pot, which he lost to Antonius.
Isildur1 tried to battle back, and even recouped most of his losses against Ivey, Antonius, and Sahamies, but Brian Hastings delivered a knockout blow in mid-December, winning $4.2 million off of Blom in less than 3,000 hands. There was a bit of controversy with this win however, because Hastings admitted that he had shared hand histories with fellow high-stakes pro Brian Townsend, which was against FTP's terms of service. Isildur1 told our own Matthew Parvis in an exclusive interview that he deserved some of his money back. Tony G came to Isildur1's defense, saying he was wronged, and later offered to stake the Swede in the PartyPoker Big Game IV. Isildur1 initially accepted, but didn't appear on the televised cash game, keeping his identity a secret.
Isildur1 returned to the virtual felt in February of 2010, but he continued to get pummeled, so he took another hiatus. We didn't hear much from the Swede until October rolled around, when a rumor started about an anonymous online poker site that was going to offer Isildur1 a deal. Sure enough, in December, Isildur1 became a PokerStars Team Pro, and they announced that his identity would be revealed at the 2011 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
By that point, it was almost common knowledge that Isildur1 was Viktor Blom. Both Tony G and Luke "full_flush" Schwartz had confirmed his identity as early as 2009, and ESPN even covered Blom at the 2010 World Series of Poker Europe Main Event. Still, when Blom walked into the ballroom with a PokerStars patch on at the 2011 PCA, it was relieving to finally know, with absolute certainty, who the Swedish wizard actually was. Before the PCA, Blom began the PokerStars Superstar Showdown; a series of heads-up matches where challengers would battle the Team Pro on four separate tables. To date, Blom has defeated every challenger at least once, and his record is 11-3. The only player to defeat him multiple times is Isaac Haxton, but finally, in April of 2012, Blom was able to oust Haxton, winning $500,000 off of him in a $1 million challenge. Blom also profited outside of the Superstar Showdown, winning $1.5 million in ring games during 2011.
Blom hasn't seen much success in online ring games in 2012 — he's down over $1.2 million to date — but, his multi-table tournament winnings more than cover his losses. It all began at the 2012 PCA, where Blom found himself at the final table of the $100,000 Super High Roller with fellow Team Pros Daniel Negreanu, Humberto Brenes, and Jonathan Duhamel, along with Scott Seiver, Dan Shak, Galen Hall, and Mike McDonald. Blom ran over the table, and eventually defeated Shak heads up, earning $1,254,400, the title, the Shamballa bracelet, and his first live tournament victory ever. He then finished second in a €5,000 heads-up event at EPT Deuville ($17,623), seventh in a €10,000 re-entry event at EPT Berlin ($38,828), and seventh in a €10,000 turbo at the PokerStars and Monte-Carlo© EPT Grand Final ($37,891).
To top it all off, Blom won two events on consecutive days during the 2012 Spring Championship of Online Poker. His first win came in SCOOP 2-M $200 NLHE, where he bested a field of 8,240 runners. Blom entered the final table with the chip lead, relinquished said lead within the fist half hour, but then battled back to win, taking home $247,200. The following day, 46 players remained in SCOOP 3-H $500 NLHE six-max with rebuys, and Blom reached another final table with the chip lead. The Swede eventually found himself heads up with Iulian-Georgian "Ruxandescu" Ruxandescu, and battled for more than a half an hour before Blom finally closed the door. Blom earned $160,000 for the victory, and another shiny SCOOP watch. Blom almost made another final table in SCOOP 20-H $2,000 NLHE, but he fell short, busting in 20th place when his aces were cracked by "selinantis."
Blom has competed in WSOP events overseas, but in the coming days he will set sail on his maiden voyage at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino. Unlike most first-timers however, we doubt that the Swede will be phased by the big crowds, large rails, or the giant mothership plopped in the middle of the Amazon Room. Blom probably won't have butterflies the first time he sits down in a room surrounded by banners depicting legends like Stu Unger, Puggy Pearson, Johnny Moss, and Amarillo Slim either, but we fans will be mesmerized the first time Isildur1 puts a chip in a pot.
Can Blom continue to crush tournaments in 2012, or will we see the swingy ninja that first captivated us in the final months of 2009? We shall see over the next two months.

HAMPTON — Even with the support of friends and family, Joe Warf struggled to finish the lullaby he offered in memory of his baby sister at her funeral Wednesday.
Warf, the brother of murder victim Amanda "Amy" Warf, led a group of mourners in reciting the words to "You Are My Sunshine" during a service in Hampton. The song was a favorite of Warf's grandfather.
"You'll never know dear, how much I love you," he said, his voice growing soft a few moments later as he reached the final words. "I love you Amy, and I will miss you."
Warf, his mother and his grandmother said a final goodbye Wednesday morning to Amanda Warf, a 36-year-old mother and Seacoast native who was found dead last week. Warf's body was found inside a burning building in Exeter on March 7.
An autopsy determined she died of fatal cuts to her neck. Warf's ex-husband was then arrested on Tuesday and charged with first-degree murder in connection with her death.
Friends and former co-workers filled the Remick & Gendron Funeral Home to pay their respects to Warf's family during an 11 a.m. service Wednesday. The Rev. Maurice D. Lavigne, pastor at St. Theresa Church in Rye Beach, participated in the event. The family was scheduled to travel to a cemetery in North Hampton later in the day to bury Warf's ashes.
Joe Warf, who was three years older than his sister, offered personal memories of their childhood together. He recalled Amanda's smile, and her love of Halloween and costumes.
Amanda had a light that was "undeniable" from the time she was in high school, Warf said. As an underclassman, Amanda was known by some students as "Joe Warf's sister," but she soon bucked the title and made a name for herself, he said.
"Sometimes in life we're lucky enough to meet someone who is truly exceptional — a person who makes you feel good just by being around them; someone whose smile is so genuine that when you see it, it makes you happy no matter how you feel," he said. "I was lucky enough to meet one of these rare people on (the day Amanda was born)."
He remembered being thrilled when he learned that Amanda was carrying her child. He recalled that when the boy was born last April, he was en route to the airport, giving him time to stop into the hospital to visit his sister and her newborn baby.
He then spoke directly to his young nephew, vowing to help the 11-month-old boy learn about the life of his deceased mother.
"I know that you didn't get to know Amy for very long," he said, "but I promise, little buddy, you are going to get to know her very well."
The ceremony took place about two hours before Aaron Desjardins, Warf's ex-husband, was formally charged in court. He was arraigned on a first-degree murder charge at 1 p.m. He entered no plea, and was ordered held without bail.
Desjardins was arrested near his home in Epping this week. He has steadfastly denied that he had a hand in Warf's death.
Warf was pregnant with the couple's young son when their divorce was finalized in 2012. Warf and Desjardins were married for about seven years, from 2004 until February of last year. They were finalizing a parenting agreement for their son at the time of Warf's death, according to court records.
