A 16-year-old Delray Beach boy was sentenced to life in prison on Friday for the 1998 slaying of Eric Schunk in a robbery gone bad.
Ramon Franco had been charged with first-degree murder for shooting Schunk twice after he and three other teens conspired to rob the construction worker at a Delray Beach park.
But a jury last month convicted him of a lesser charge of second-degree murder.
Also last month, Brian Glatzmayer, 18, was sentenced to life in prison on a first-degree murder conviction for his role in concocting the robbery scheme. Glatzmayer's attorney had worried that even though Franco was the one who fired the fatal shot, he would get a more favorable sentence because he was convicted of a lesser charge.
Palm Beach County Circuit Judge John Phillips agreed with prosecutors that Franco deserved life in prison, without the possibility of parole.
According to trial testimony, Glatzmayer called Schunk, 21, to arrange to buy cocaine from him at a park at the Rainberry Woods subdivision.
But with only robbery in mind, Franco pulled a .45-caliber handgun. During a struggle, two rounds were fired. One hit Schunk in the chest.
Carlos Umana, 17, and Charles Israel, 18, are scheduled to go to trial on first-degree murder and attempted armed robbery charges in March, prosecutor Chuck Burton said.

My lovely girlfriend, Dani, has had a blog for quite some time now and I figured I'd give it a try.
Why give it a try, you might ask? Well, to be honest, for no real reason in particular. I guess I could use it as a way to siphon off some creative energy that I have. Or I may be able to generate awe inspiring ideas from writing about them every now and then. Or I could just use it to randomly write about whatever comes to mind or what interests me. I suppose that would be how I came up with the 'Distracted' bit in the blog title.
And why 'The Distracted Jedi'? Well, if there is anything I'm known for it is my love for Star Wars and superheroes and other dorkish interests. And really, when you boil it down Star Wars is what remains. And as much as I would love to say that Han Solo is the Star Wars character that I most resemble personality wise, in all actuality Obi Wan Kenobi would be my Star Wars alter-ego. And so the 'Distracted Jedi' was born.
But Star Wars won't be all that's found here. Oh no, sir/ma'am. This will be a haven for all things dork related that strikes my fancy. Again, hence the 'Distracted' bit.
But enough about me! Feel free to leave a comment below about yourself. I'm curious about the people reading and what interests you have!
Until then,
May the Force be with you!!

The first-ever golf car parade kicked off at this year's Tolono Fun Day Festival on Friday night.
At least 30 uniquely decorated golf carts were driven in the parade.
The Tolono Public Library.hosted Mr. Steve's Back to School Special last Thursday.
The village of Sidney hosted its annual Fun Daze celebration on July 28 and 29.
This year's Sidney Summer Fun Daze will feature more seating, more parking and a new bike giveaway.
The demolition of the town hall building has eliminated the main indoor venue for the event. The area where the building used to stand will now have more picnic tables available for people to sit and rest.
Read the full story in the July 20 issue of The County Star.
A karaoke contest, a petting zoo and a cake walk will be among the new attractions at the 13th annual Sidney Fun Daze festival, scheduled for Friday, July 29, and Saturday, July 30.
"We tried to add more things for the kids," Sidney Improvement Group President Mike Roy said.
From 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. this Friday, Oct. 23, author/Realtor Pamela Franks will be featured with her new children's book, "The Magic Gingerbread House" (Bright Sky Press) at RE/MAX Realty Associates, 2009 Fox Drive in Champaign. For every book sold during that time, Franks will donate a copy to the Crisis Nursery Holiday Shop, which is a fundraiser for the Nursery.
The Homer Opera House will officially reopen with a celebration on Saturday, Oct. 17.
The event features a concert at 6 p.m. with a range of musical performers, from bluegrass to rock and roll, to folk rock, to even some rap and show tunes performing.
The Rotary Club of Savoy held its annual pancake breakfast on March 14 at the First Baptist Church at Savoy.

Albert Adomah has not started a league game this season and that does not look like changing after Robert Snodgrass arrived at Aston Villa
The Ghanaian has never been the most universally popular player at Aston Villa but the frustration that has accompanied many of his performances in claret and blue rather unfairly mask his influence.
The 29-year-old, who moved to Villa from Middlesbrough last summer as part of the deal that took Adama Traore to The Riverside, set up ten goals in the Championship last season while scoring three himself.
Only Conor Hourihane, who became Adomah's team-mate at Villa Park after arriving from Barnsley in January, had more assists to his name in 2016/17. Much vaunted trio Tom Cairney, Sone Aluko and Wes Hoolahan joined the 18-time Ghanaian international in second place.
However, those impressive statistics have counted for little so far this season. Adomah has only made two appearances off the bench in Villa's first six Championship games of 2017/18 – tallying a grand total of 72 minutes.
And you wonder where his game time is going to come from this season. After all, manager Steve Bruce has brought in two of his favourite former players this summer and that appears to have left Adomah out in the cold.
Unfairly omitted?
Ahmed Elmohamady, who Bruce worked with at Sunderland and Hull City, started on the right hand side of attack in Saturday's goalless draw against Brentford but it's fair to say he hasn't exactly set the world alight in Villa colours.
A right-back by trade, Elmohamady struggled to make an impact in a dire performance against the Bees and, in truth, lacks the unpredictability of Adomah.
Furthermore, one of last season's top performers has not been helped by the marquee arrival of Robert Snodgrass on loan from West Ham. The Scotland winger, who helped Bruce's Hull win promotion two seasons ago, loves to cut inside onto his trusty left peg and will surely be the first-choice option on Villa's right wing.
Therefore, Bruce simply has no room for Adomah; although, with Villa struggling for creativity, he may regret leaving his assist king out of the side.

I seldom get this ambitious, but this story that wants to grow into a novel has been kicking around in my head for about a year now. I sat down and began sketching out the downtown area of the town of Rookdale. It was too big of an area for an approximately 6x9 page in the journal I am using to document names, places, noes, etc. (another thing I seldom do, but I started the novel and needed to refresh my memory, so took notes this time as there are a lot of characters in this one, and a lot of connections, enemies and allies among the people of this town where witchcraft still has a thrumming undercurrent.
I began drawing the map on a 9x12 Bristol board this morning between ten and noon. I had to go to work, so pulled the emerging map back out after dinner this evening and added a few more streets and locations, like two ponds, several farms and woodland. Also added a shingle where the locals hang out near the water and a boat launch area. There are old wharves at a stone and brick warehouse on the waterfront that is now a brew pub and restaurant. There's even a cliff walk park with a stone tower where a father threw his daughter off the cliff, and then her boyfriend mysteriously fell to his death (or was he pushed?)
I have farms, a dairy farm, a horse farm, and a supernatural area Rock Ring, sort of Stonehenge-esque and important as a place where rituals can be performed. The ponds are Crescent Pond and Smoke Pond, an Old Burying Ground reminiscent of the street my best friend grew up on that had arches at the entrance and led to a cemetery at the far end of the road. I always thought that was so creepy, to apparently live in a house inside the cemetery, but I think the cemetery was erected on property at the end of the street sometime after the houses were built, and then they added the arch way for Cedar Grove Cemetery at the entrance to the street...still creepy but we roller skated there just the same.
When the map was drawn I broke out the coloring pencils and began coloring it in. It came out very nicely (can be seen on my facebook page, the regular one, not the author page.
I showed it to Kelly and she was impressed. I showed it t John and he nodded, but I don't think he really understands the passion writer's have for creating a realistic setting for their novels- a place that the reader can travel to in their imagination and know their way around. It can be rather classic in form and content, so that maybe when a reader is passing through a real town or village one day something he sees- a monument, a white church beside a old graveyard, a stone wall with a dairy farm beyond, a corral, or a row of shops on a seaside street will evoke that town the writer created and populated with characters who seemed as real as living people. I want my readers to walk into an historical society building and think they will find Miss Argyle there ready to regale them with local history tidbits.
Sometimes it takes a village, sometimes it takes a town- sometimes it takes a writer with a burning passion willing to put in the time and effort to sit down and map out an entire town where her characters will live, interact, laugh, cry, fight a battle, lick their wounds, fall in love, raise their children, and pursue their dreams and destinies.
I'm willing to lay the groundwork upon which a novel will be based to make it as real as possible so that the reader feels as if they are staying at the Bed & Breakfast on the corner, or the Davies' purple and blue Guest House on Witch Lane.
Most of the time I draw a pen sketch to give me some landmarks...this time I went the whole nine yards. When I'm done, I'll fold the map and tuck it into the journal where the notes are written. I'll put the journal on the shelf beside the others I've done after the fact (for novels with sequels), and a red journal that is my Character Inspiration scrapbook, where I put all the pictures of people with interesting faces, striking color hair, hairstyles, and appearances. Some of them are by novel- like this is who I modeled Evangeline and Ardis on, this is Rex Royce and here is Lucie Palmer, this is Benjamin "Beans" Carter and Amanda Pennington,,,others remain unidentified, to be included in future novels.
I have only one other full color hand drawn map on a sheet of poster paper- the Italian island of Monte Fiore- a totally made up place with a ferry to the mainland somewhere near the boot heel (where my ancestors originated from).

Legal Strategy 101, *Again*
Dope-ing: Floyd, let us review, shall we? In yet another egregious departure from my crack (at least, free), legal advice, you have apparently decided to outline your offense/defense for the upcoming public arbitration well ahead of time on your website this week. Floyd, I quite possibly believe you are innocent--I certainly believe that the Dr. Do-nothings at the lab botched the job as usual--but for everyone's sake and particularly your own, shut the hell up already! I know you want to say that the samples were mislabeled and the wrong number improperly corrected with white-out instead of a cross-out and all this other procedural crap, and you want to post 300 pages of documents too. But the only one of these things that makes you look actually innocent, as opposed to just goddamned lucky that the lab's incompetent and clearly has an axe to grind against any poor bastard it can find to soothe its bruised ego is the allegation about only one of four testosterone/epitestosterone benchmarks showing a problem, when all 4 have to show a problem for a positive test. 1 out of 4 sounds like a mistake, plain and simple. Leave it there. Trust me, a surfeit of scientifically illiterate boneheads like myself rifling through 300 pages of incomprehensibly sophisticated scientific jargon looking for paranoid conspiracy theories, Floyd, is the last freakin' thing you need. The rest of the stuff you're saying, frankly, sounds like Typical Lawyerly Weaselling. So put the benchmark failures issue out there in the most moron-friendly terms possible if you must--and again, really, you mustn't--but otherwise, please, for your own good, Floyd, SHUT UP.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
While you wait for the NFL season to kick off and for another column from the Greenbleeder crew, definitely check out this great list. Darren Daulton is my personal highlight here, but I guess that team just has a lot of sentimental value. Funny, because they never were the sentimental types. This is like when a gorilla sees its reflection in a mirror and just smashes it to pieces. I would have loved a freak hot-dog eating accident by the Kruker though.

I was going to make this for lunch today.
I was going to take pictures.
It was going to be a really pretty photo shoot because you know what is prettier than a hard boiled egg's bright yellow and a perfectly ripe avocado's green fleshy goodness?
Maybe this:
*Gratuitous photo of my future nieces. Gorge!
Back to my egg salad.
So last time I tried to make egg salad at Jeff's house (sometimes I go there for lunch cuz it's .2 seconds away from work and my parents' house is wayyy too far away for an hour lunch break [not really, but his house is much closer]) I did EVERYTHING my mom/The Pioneer Woman/Google told me to do and my eggs were not cooked. It was heartbreaking. Do you have any idea how it feels to crave egg salad like crack and get everything all set up and put together and spend 20 minutes boiling two damn eggs and neither of them cook all the way through!? It's enough to make you sick.
Literally. That's how you get salmonella.
I didn't have the salmonella problem this time, thank GOODNESS. I was getting ready to mix everything together and I took the mayo out of the fridge. Back story: unless it's on a BLT or LIGHT in a salad (pasta, potato, egg) I do not go near mayo. Ewyuckno.
It jiggles.
It freaks me out.
So of course I had not realized that the mayo in the fridge had expired IN DECEMBER and was CURDLING and I bet you anything Jeff had been eating it up until we went on vacation last week. Climb aboard the vomit train…
I was able to find some Miracle Whip that only just expired last week (!!!!) so I squeezed in the teeniest amount just to make the egg stick together, basically, because if I hate anything more than mayo it's Miracle Whip.
I threw in some mustard and worcestershire sauce (<- KEY!) and tasted my creation and it was surprisingly delicious despite the condiment catastrophe.
But then I ate a spoonful with avocado (my one true love) and I decided that on their own each are glorious, but together notsomuch. I think it was a consistency problem. Too much mush in one place. That being said, maybe when I actually have mayo and not that other crap I will try Ree's recipe. Who knows.
After all this, my camera died anyway so it didn't even matter. It's like I never ate at all. Because after all, if there is no Instagram photo of it, did it really happen??? I ask you.
So now I've got a sliced up avocado in the fridge marinating in lime so it won't go all nast and brown on me, and I'm trying to figure out a way to use it ASAP. (Guacamole is the obvious standby.)
I've also got a husband-to-be with a totally clean fridge because the mayo situation freaked me out so I started purging, which really wasn't a bad idea anyway cuz yesterday Jeff ate a 13-day-old enchilada.

I recently realized that I can quilt straight lines on the quilting setup that I have. (I am currently using this frame and this machine.) It's not perfect, but it sure beats using a regular machine! To start with, I was using the frame as a guide and running the machine along the take up (back) rail to keep my lines straight. I could quilt 2 lines before I had to turn the quilt-the first one involved butting the needle/presser foot up to the rail. The second line was done by pulling the machine as far towards me as I could, so that the take up rail was butted up to the body of the machine.
As I quilted more and more, I started to move away from the safety net of using the rails to keep my lines straight. By the end of the quilt, I was rolling the quilt far less and free handing far more. The lines aren't perfect, but I think it's good enough for my first attempt!
There were a few hiccups when I was learning all of this. First, the presser foot tried to eat my quilt! When I was running the presser foot edge against the rail to quilt, I had a few stops where the fabric already rolled up on the rail was being eaten up by the presser foot as it hopped along. To fix this, I taped a piece of template plastic to the machine. That way, the presser foot was only touching the plastic and my quilt stayed safely on the other side. 🙂 Here's a picture to better explain this:

BUCKTOWN — It was supposed to be the happiest time for Chicago Firehouse chef Dean Zanella and his wife, Mary Reidy Zanella.
She had given birth to twin girls on Feb. 13. The couple's second wedding anniversary was coming up. And just a few days before his daughters were born, Dean Zanella had talked with his boss about the possibility of heading up two other restaurants.
But eight days after delivery, with one baby already home and the second about to be released from the hospital, the unimaginable happened: Mary died.
She had a blood clot in her legs, likely due to childbirth, her husband said. She was 40.
On March 31, Chicago's chef community will come together at Hot Chocolate, 1747 N. Damen Ave., for a dinner — they're calling it "An (I AM) FUNdraiser," a nod to one of Mary's trademark sayings — for Zanella, 48, and his daughters that will be bittersweet, to say the least.
Eleven chefs (and counting) will cook dinner that evening alongside Hot Chocolate's Mindy Segal. They include John Hogan, formerly of Keefer's; Roger Herring of Grand Tour; Bill Kim of bellyQ, Urbanbelly and Belly Shack; Rob Levitt of the Butcher and Larder; La Sirena Clandestina's John Manion; Elissa Narow of Perennial Virant and Vie; Piccolo Sogno's Tony Priolo; Giuseppe Tentori of GT Fish and Oyster; Heather Terhune of Sable Kitchen and Bar, and Takashi Yagihashi of Takashi and Slurping Turtle.
Chefs and others have donated silent auction items that include a VIP package at the Metro, a two-night hotel stay in Boston, with tickets to a Cubs-Red Sox game, and gift certificates to three Brooklyn restaurants.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Zanella Children Trust Fund. In addition, taco-and-whiskey bar Big Star, 1531 N. Damen Ave., will donate a portion of its sales between 9:30 p.m. and midnight on March 31 to the Zanella fund.
The cost of the dinner is $200. Only 100 tickets will be sold. Call 773-489-1747 to reserve.
By Wednesday afternoon, a few hours after emailing a news release for the event, Hot Chocolate already had gotten 40 reservations, said Jenn Galdes, Zanella's former publicist who is helping to organize the event.
At least two more fundraising dinners are in the works for later this year. The family also has an online donation page on the Give Forward website.
Dean Zanella returned to work for a few hours Tuesday — a day after what would have been his second wedding anniversary — and said he planned to go into the South Loop restaurant this weekend as well.
"Gotta get my mind off it," he said Wednesday.
His daughters are healthy and well, he said. They turned 4 weeks old Thursday.

I have an ICT suite of HP DC7700's, and all but one of them is forgetting the BIOS password. You set it, but then when the computer reboots it does not prompt for the setup password when you enter setup.
It is remembering all other settings (time, date, boot order etc.)
All the computers have the same BIOS version. I have googled this and one other person had this issue, but no solution was given. Has anyone seen this issue? Anyone any ideas on a fix?

I have the exact same problem on my DC7700, I spent a long time trying to sort it and I had several phone calls with HP over it. I did everything the guy could think of, flashing the rom etc, in the end he thought it was an issue with rom chip and that the motherboards would need to be replaced.
Aug 31, 2012 at 06:26 UTC
Ah- that's not great : /
Did you try and get the motherboard replaced under warranty or was the computer out of warranty?
Aug 31, 2012 at 07:50 UTC
I got 20 reconditioned units for the sixth form center, so there was no warranty with HP and I couldnt be arsed sending them all back to the company I got them from as the sixth formers were only going to trash them anyway.
If memory serves HP did say that they would take them under warranty.
Aug 31, 2012 at 07:57 UTC
Snap, ours are reconditioned, well out of the 3 month RTB warranty. So it's a known hardware issue.
Thanks for the replies
Aug 31, 2012 at 10:57 UTC
It's possible that the CMOS battery is dead. I don't know how readily accessible the CMOS battery is on that model, but that could definitely be causing things such as "forgotten" BIOS passwords or incorrect time/date.
On some laptops, it's as simple as opening the memory bay and the "button" battery can be popped out from underneath the RAM (after removing the RAM, of course). On other models, however, removing/replacing the CMOS battery requires full disassembly to access the battery on the bottom side of the motherboard that is not visible by removing external bays.
Oct 3, 2013 at 13:48 UTC
So I feel a little bit silly...
Whichever company re-furbished these PC's has cleared the passwords and not put the jumper back on, so the computers are stuck in clear password mode!
Jumpers added and now it remembers the passwords. Doh!
Oct 3, 2013 at 18:10 UTC
Brand Representative for HP
Baxio, now don't feel silly. We are thankful for your posting the root cause of your DC7700's not remembering the BIOS password. I searched HP's intranet and, as yiou did, the internet for alerts and other reports of this issue and didn't find any. Thanks for being persistent! I have to applaud those IT pros working for educational institutions and nonprofits. You are very budget consicious and try hard to extend the life of your existing equipment. Now your students can work on those DC7700's a bit longer. Thanks again for your post which may lead to an added step in the troubleshooting process of this and similar issues.

I'm having the same issue with quite a few HP Compaq 8000 elite. Bios will not save administrator password. noticed that some with the same firmware are doing it and others aren't. so i don't think it's a firmware issue

The State Department announced Wednesday that it was cutting hundreds of millions in military and other aid to Egypt, and make no mistake: this was not a government shutdown move. This was the President of the United States blackmailing a sovereign state to force it to restore the Muslim Brotherhood government he favors. With the Egyptian economy in crisis and Egypt strongly dependent on this aid, Obama has just effectively cast his vote for the Muslim Brotherhood's return to power – and his vote outweighs that of millions of Egyptians….
…Obama's unstinting and uncritical support for the Muslim Brotherhood is nothing new. The Obama administration's support for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has for years been so glaringly obvious that in July 2012, when then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton visited Egypt and had a cordial meeting with now-ousted Muslim Brotherhood President Mohamed Morsi, foes of the Brotherhood regime pelted her motorcade with tomatoes and shoes for delivering that country up to the rule of the Brotherhood. Protestors held signs reading "Message to Hillary: Egypt will never be Pakistan"; "To Hillary: Hamas will never rule Egypt" and "If you like the Ikhwan [Brotherhood], take them with you!"
And last summer, when the Brotherhood regime was suddenly and unexpectedly toppled from power, numerous anti-Brotherhood protesters held signs accusing Obama of supporting terrorists. One foe of the Brotherhood made a music video including the lyrics: "Hey Obama, support the terrorism/Traitor like the Brotherhood members/Obama say it's a coup/That's not your business dirty man."
Obama's support for the Muslim Brotherhood goes back to the beginning of his presidency. Early in 2009, when the group was still outlawed in Egypt, he met with its leaders. He made sure to invite Brotherhood leaders to attend his notorious speech to the Islamic world in Cairo in June 4, 2009.
He even invited Ingrid Mattson, then-president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), to offer a prayer at the National Cathedral on his first Inauguration Day – despite the fact that ISNA has admitted its ties to the Brotherhood. The previous summer, federal prosecutors rejected a request from ISNA to remove its unindicted co-conspirator status.
With Brotherhood operatives so warmly favored in the Obama Administration, it's no surprise that he would want them in power in Egypt as well. And by cutting off aid, he's strong-arming the Egyptians until they have no choice but to agree.

New Books for New Homes October 30, 2011Posted by lizyanoff in Uncategorized.
New Books for New Homes: Capital District Habitat for Humanity partners with the Albany City Area Reading Council to provide new books to our new homeowners.
Albany, NY – Capital District Habitat for Humanity (CDHfH) and the Albany City Area Reading Council (ACARC) announce a groundbreaking partnership to provide hard-working future homeowners of the "Morton's Walk" on Alexander Street project with new books and a springboard for a lifetime of reading and learning. ACARC is working with The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza, the Albany Public Library, and the Albany Walmart Supercenter Store #2152 to provide library services information, new books and bookshelves for each of the ten families moving into "Morton's Walk" on Alexander. The books and reading materials will go to hardworking, lower-income families who will live in ten new two-story attached row houses currently under construction in Albany's South End. The project will create broad transformational change in a neighborhood in need of revitalization and for families in need of safe, decent, and affordable housing. The donation of new, age-appropriate books and library information to Habitat homeowners further reinforces the positive impact that a safe, stable home has on educational attainment and success.
"Hammers and books, most people probably don't see the relationship between these two items," said Michael Jacobson, Executive Director of CDHfH. "In our world these tools are the foundation that leads our families to a better life. When asked, most children of our Habitat homeowners to be will tell you the most important thing about having a home of their own is the hope of getting a good night's sleep and a quiet place to read and do their homework. This exciting partnership will ensure that our children will not only have that home and that room to call their own, but also the gift of knowledge to absorb in peace, comfort and safety."
Liz Yanoff, President of the Albany City Area Reading Council notes, "Our members are teachers, librarians, and authors who love reading and want to share that passion with others. This project is a natural extension of our mission".
The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza is collecting books at their store (1475 Western Avenue, Albany NY) from Wednesday, November 23 through Wednesday, December 7. Book House employees will provide book suggestions for each family and are offering a 20% discount on all books purchased for this project. Gift cards will also be collected. "Book House is thrilled to be a part of this important community project," noted Rachel King of The Book House of Stuyvesant Plaza.
To learn more about becoming a sponsor of the New Books for New Homes project, please contact Liz Yanoff at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Capital District Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit housing partnership dedicated to building simple, decent and affordable homes with lower-income families in need. Habitat for Humanity uses volunteer labor and donations of money and materials to provide affordable homeownership to those people who would not otherwise have that opportunity. Habitat creates systemic social change by giving the economically disenfranchised the tools necessary to break the cycle of poverty. Established in 1988, CDHfH is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International serving Albany and Saratoga Counties, NY. To date, CDHfH has built 50 homes.

All novels in this series were released...
...during the 1990's in the Finnish language. I have already reviewed novels 3 - 6 of the Maria Kallio series. This is novel 2. The series genre is modern detective and the novels I have reviewed so far are solid 4 or 5 star detective suspense thrillers. Amy Rubinate's narration of the series is consistently outstanding. Those who have Kindle Unlimited memberships can borrow and listen to the Audible versions of the novels for no additional cost (the cost is included in the membership). The Audio books are inexpensive to purchase using Whispersync for Voice.

the names and places were pronounced so badly.

I actually were confused at times about the the characters and location. Story was great, but I wish the narrator would take interest in pronouncing at least the names correctly.

Okay read
It is actually quite refreshing to meet " ordinary peopele " in this detective series. There has been much published about the rampant alcholism of the Fins and that characteristic is clearly obvious inthe leading character - the bad decisions that drunkenness produces is however not evident - it is ignored totally - so for me the series is not worth the effort or money to pursue as truth and reality are squde.

You can mark down March 19, 2012, as the day the Republican Presidential Primary ended. It's over. The slog will continue through June, but Mitt Romney will be the Republican nominee.
My number one reason for declaring the race over is not that Rick Santorum is down by double-digits in the Illinois polls, has again failed to field a full slate of delegates, has failed to persuade Newt Gingrich to depart the race, and has continued to fall further behind Romney in the delegate count -- though those are all persuasive pieces of evidence.
Instead it's that I heard a snippet of one of his Illinois speeches from yesterday in which he drew the a direct comparison between this campaign and Ronald Reagan's 1976 campaign. So, let the record show that Santorum 2012 shut down operations on March 19, 2012, and Santorum 2016 begins today.
This might make tonight's results and speeches interesting for a couple of reasons. Santorum will need to provide a rationale for continuing to campaign to the convention while reaching out to those Republicans who will want him to pack it in. The Republican Party has a long track record of nominating the second-place finisher from the previous cycle, so Santorum has good reason to think that if he can finish a strong second, he will have a clear shot at the 2016 nomination. But he may want to be cautious about how much further damage he does to Mitt Romney along the way. Campaigning through to the convention isn't a bad strategy if he has truly set his sights on 2016 because it will allow him to build the contacts and structures in states that may bear fruit in four years.
If Santorum mentions Reagan 1976 or spends most of his speech tonight focusing on Obama instead of Romney, you can take that as a 2012 concession.
Romney's speech could also be interesting, though we're more likely to see his standard stump than anything else. Romney has been trying to pivot to the general election for some time now, but Santorum has continually dragged him out onto the far-right wing of the Republican Party on social issues. Romney will soon want to convince one and all that he didn't mean all the things he had to say to win the Republican nomination. But that backpeddle may be especially tricky for a candidate who already has credibility problems with his stands on the issues. If nothing else, this primary campaign has certainly provided the Democratic National Committee and the Obama campaign with hours of Romney videotape to cherry pick for advertisements this fall.
So, I see little potential for a surprising outcome in Illinois, but we could have a couple of potentially significant speeches tonight.

As always, you have the most original views and perspectives! Wonderful post. Makes me mildly want to endure the Santorum's concession speech...ReplyDelete
Yes, very nice catch, John. Ronald Reagan in 1976... most interesting. I look forward to your assessment of tonight's speeches, since I've missed then now.ReplyDelete

Leave it to Californians to give a loon a cigar! Too funny. A side note . . . the adhesive they used to adhere the label to the bottle was like none other . . . it took me 30 minutes with an X-acto blade to get the stupid thing off . . . NASA should use that on the space shuttle, then the panels would stop falling off!
Now I just have to find a knife set for him to complete the experience. We're going to several kitchen supply stores soon to try and find a good set, with the sharpening steel and all.
In other news, lookey what I got:
It's a Bind-It-All machine! For making small books and mini albums and whatever else may need to be bound with O-wires. Like a spiral binding only not . . . much cleaner looking. I got it on eBay . . . well, two of them actually but that's another story . . . and I can't wait for them to get here. Would you believe it will cut thru license plates!!! Well, all except Oklahoma because they use a different type of metal. I'll show you what I plan to use the license plate for when I get it done!
I read Ali Edwards' blog all the time and she is forever taking mini albums apart and adding stuff then rebinding them with her machine so I decided I just had to get one. I'm also going to use it to bind my senior proof books for all my senior clients . . . a lot cheaper than having my lab do it.
Now I just have to get the kids to let me use it . . . . :)

VINELAND, NJ - Male commercial vehicle drivers are less likely to wear seatbelts than female commercial drivers, according to the results of a recent survey conducted by South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization and South Jersey Traffic Safety Alliance, which found only 72 percent of commercial vehicle drivers wear seat belts.
Male commercial drivers' rate of use was only 71 percent compared to female commercial drivers at 89 percent. The regional rate of seat-belt usage for passenger-vehicle motorists is 90 percent.
The lowest rate among commercial drivers was found in concrete trucks (32 percent), followed by tow trucks (54 percent), trash trucks (57 percent), and tanker trucks (59 percent).
To be counted in the survey, vehicles had to be at least a single-unit truck and have a business logo on it.
The survey also found that commercial vehicle drivers used cell phones while driving at a higher rate than passenger-vehicle drivers, 6 percent to 4 percent.

British Polling Projections: Hung ParliamentApril 1, 2008
Back into hung parliament territory
Adding the latest You Gov poll to my collection and filtering it produces the following projections:
Conservatives 38.63 (309)
Labour 30.77 (269)
Liberal Democrats 17.01 (41)
As a point of reference, popular alternatives produce the following; (Poll of polls) Con 39.8 Lab 32 LDm 18 (5 Poll Rolling Average) Con 41.2 Lab 29.4 LDm 18.2. Although we are back to hung parliament territory, the fact remains that Samplemiser has not projected a Labour majority since November 4th. Brosi Johnson's lead in London shows that Labour need to do something to combat the third term inertia, and that Gordon Brown might not be the leader who can find the solution. At the very least they need to go on the attack against Cameron.

What is it for a company to survive over a thousand years? This currently tells you more about Japan and the relatively stable cultural institutions and non-Western approach to corporate life than it does about what it means to be a company. But in a thousand years time, there'll also probably be Western companies which are that old.
But consider how varied the political and cultural landscape will be when you compare 1500 with 2500. A company (rather than just a bunch of people performing the same work in the same place for that time - like the family farm, for example) has a legal framework which can change over time. Think how many job types, and by implication, though to a lesser extent, companies there have been and will ever be in the history of economics. It is not a surprise that the average life of a company is much shorter than this. It isn't so bad a fate for companies that they die. Though there's much more to a company's end than it dying.
If a company is an animal, then there's the equivalent to animal ethology - the set of behaviours it currently engages in. There's its own life history, birth, death, marriages, offspring, family. There's the science of examining the company as a species - how that species interacts, competes. But before all of that, there's the basic question of why? In biology, you get something like the selfish gene/Hamiltonian kind of answer to the why of an organism's existence. What's the answer to the primordial 'why' with the company?

2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class SUV for Sale
Formerly known as the GL-Class, the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class gets a new name to reflect the brand's belief that it's the S-Class of SUVs. Thanks to a bevy of upgrades from last year's GL-Class, the GLS-Class appears to have properly earned this designation, as it is one of the most desirable models Mercedes-Benz has to offer.
Some subtle yet striking styling changes at the front and the rear of the vehicle set the GLS-Class apart from last year's model, but there's much more going on behind the scenes. The all-new nine-speed automatic transmission that's available across the line (with the exception of the AMG version) is simply superb. There's also an upgraded infotainment system that features a larger central display, a touchpad and an optional upgrade to Apple CarPlay.
The interior is typical GL-style, with its premium vinyl upholstery and genuine wood trim, and features a new three-spoke steering wheel (a racy flat-bottomed version is available with the AMG model). The third row of the GLS-Class can even comfortably accommodate adult passengers. And despite its engine upgrades, the 2017 GLS is thankfully as quiet as GLs of the past.
Performance-wise, the GLS-Class drives with a considerable amount of agility, belying its massive size. Acceleration has plenty of pep across the trim levels, save for the diesel variant GLS 350d. What the diesel lacks in acceleration, it more than makes up for by offering the best fuel economy of any GLS-Class. With the exception of the GLS 450's turbocharged V6, all engines across the line have a bit more horsepower than last year's GL-Class. Adding the V8 and sport-tuned suspension from the AMG version only heightens the driving experience of this ultra-premium luxury SUV.
The 2017 GLS-Class is available in four different trim levels, from the standard GLS 450 to the high-performance AMG GLS 63. In between lies the GLS 550, which adds the many premium options from the 450, then adds even more — including wood steering-wheel inserts. There's even an Off-Road package available that, among other things, adds a dual-range transfer case and front underbody protection so you can choose the road less traveled.
The new GLS-Class is well deserving of the S-Class designation because there really is no other SUV like it when it comes to its unparalleled luxury, driving experience and technology. Edmunds will help you find the right trim and packages — and the right price — to make the 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class yours.

|AMX-107 Bawoo (Mobile Armour mode)
Welcome to the Neoscream's Life post. This is a weekly post of some of the things I have done during last week and news on the great Geek Goddess, AJ Lee.
Most of this week I have been painting. Dam I have a major back log of done figures. If there is no AJ Lee news next week I might be able to clear a little of the back log.
On Saturday as Richard is not around the next two weekends, a small group of us (which ended up being just me, Richard and Darren H) got together for some pizza for my birthday (which is TODAY). There was thoughts of a film, but none of us were really up for it. However we do plan on seeing X-Men Days of Future Past when it comes out. Pizza was great and we ended up with more than we paid for due to mistakes.
OK let us talk about the results from the pay-per-view.
First there was the pre-show match between El Torito of Los Matadores and Hornswoggle of 3MB. I did not see this as Sky Box Office does not show it. In fact only the WWE Network has it which to my knowledge is not available to the UK at the moment. Well anyway El Torito won the match.
Next is another match that was not listed two weeks ago. RVD verses Jack Swagger verses Cesaro in a triple threat elimination. RVD eliminated Jack Swagger first and then Cesaro eliminated RVD. Can anyone shut up Paul Heyman.
After that was R-Truth and Xavier Woods verses Alexander Rusev in a handicap match. The Bulgarian Brute destroyed Xavier and injured Truth before the match began. It turned into a one on one match between Truth and the Bulgarian Brute, which Alexander won.
Next was the match between the Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston and #BadNewsBarrett. Sadly Barrett won the match and the re-match on Raw the next day.
After that was The Shield verses the Corporate Evolution (it is NOT THE Evolution without the two time Hall of Famer Ric Flair). It was a brutal match however the Shield won, however only Roman Reigns.
Next is John Cena verses Bray Wyatt in a Steel Cage match. The cage did not prevent the other Wyatt members from interfering, however Cena manage to kick all three of their butts. But when Cena tried to leave the cage and a child singing "He has the Whole World in his Hands" with a demonic sound effect appeared out of nowhere at the entrance. Cena was shocked and creped out by it and Bray used the opportunity to win the match.
After that was the match between the current Diva's Champion Paige and AJ's former bodyguard Tamina Snuka. Tamina dominated the match, however Paige sadly managed to pull off the Scorpion Crosslock for the victory.
Lasty is the match between WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan and his former tag team partner Kane in an Extreme Rules match. This was an epic match which led out to backstage and the car park. Daniel had to carry Kane's unconscious body back to the ring with a forklift truck. LOL. Daniel won the match, however Kane is still gunning for him.
If there is no AJ Lee news this week I will be doing an extra "Painting and Converting" section to replace it.

"The 39 Steps – Part VII – Tech Talk
So in the middle of one of the day's tech rehearsals, Sean also had to factor in a "thing for the donors." One of the benefits of supporting Geva at a certain level is a periodic invitation to peek behind the scenes, and this is potentially distracting from business as usual. About 20 people gathered in the Nextstage for a presentation by Matthew Reinert (director of production), Michael Raiford (scenic designer), and Apollo Mark Weaver (charge artist).
Michael's concept for the set, "a sophisticated playground with the sense of richness of an old movie theatre that everything else moves in," incorporates various Hitchcockian elements. Light and shadows play an important role in this production, and the set should give the audience a sense of vertigo, between the upside-down candles and the pattern on the marble floor (Apollo described the effort it took to translate the design into practicality – to get the marble effect, as well as the reflectivity of some of the wall tiles, which will aid in the play of light). Michael and Matthew likened the building of a set to the building of a house – you start with an idealized design, then adapt it for the realities of time, budget, and technology. While the team starts planning months in advance, the set is actually build in just 4 weeks (offsite, about 2 miles away, so it has to be transportable, but the pieces also have to fit together seamlessly), and installed in the theatre in 3 days. Matthew explained that, especially in a fast-paced show like The 39 Steps, there are lots of cross-departmental conversations about costumes and sets to ensure they work together when they finally meet up.
Then we were invited into the Mainstage to watch the final 15 minutes of tech rehearsal before their dinner break, and Sean answered questions from the group. I asked why, in a theatre this small, microphones were necessary for the actors. He explained that because of the cinematic quality of the show, they are experimenting with the mikes, determining how much amplification is needed in order to hear the actors' dialog over the underscoring or in scenes where they are out in the house. They can always make changes in preview if necessary, and he compared tech rehearsal to going camping – it's better to throw lots of stuff in because after that you can always take something out, but it's too late to add anything!
In this roughly 100-minute show, there are over 1000 different light/sound cues, set moves, and costume changes. You can do the math, so no wonder Sean said at the beginning of this journey that the show is "built to break." But given all of the talent and effort that has gone into this production, it's also build to withstand.
The Thirty Nine Steps – Part VI – Tech Rehearsal
Lights, music, action! Then stop. Then the actors stand around while the crew adjusts light cues or the angle of a doorway or the location of various props. Finally – rehearsal is in the main stage, with costumes (I hardly recognized the actors!), sets, props, mikes (mikes? More about that later…). The actors have their lines down and it's time for the unsung heroes of theatre to get busy making sure the spots are in the right place, the sets don't interfere with closing the curtain, the doorbell rings (wait – we need a doorbell!), and so on.
This is where it all comes together, and adjustments are made (like installing a doorbell, or discarding a bit of a costume that interferes with the action). Watching it take 20 minutes to get through a 1-minute scene, I tried to calculate the staggering amount of effort that goes into producing a mere 2 hours of ephemeral entertainment. Thousands of man-hours, counting the time of not just the actors and director, but also stage managers, set designers and builders, costume and prop shop, lighting and sound crew, and many others who work literally behind the scenes. And for many of them (as with, perhaps, many of us in other careers?), if they do their job right, you won't even notice. Only if a spot ends up on empty space next to an actor, or music plays too early and drowns out an actor's lines, will the audience be aware of the people behind the curtain pulling the strings.
In addition to attending to details like making sure a rotating doorway clears the hanging lights, Sean and the stage managers were also diligently wandering around the orchestra and balcony to make sure that even 'the cheap seats' had good visibility for certain scenes where sets might impede a view of the action. Sitting in this particular rehearsal reminded me that theatre is truly a labor of love.
There's an incredible amount of technical expertise required to stage a show, in addition to the obvious talents required by the actors and director, and what there is to show for it is fleeting. " – Maggie Symington

ACTION: Notice of suspension of compliance date. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document gives notice that Customs is suspending the compliance date for T.D. 94-5, which was published in the Federal Register (58 FR 68743) on December 29, 1993. T.D. 94-5 was a final interpretive rule concerning the country of origin marking requirements for retail packages containing imported frozen produce. As numerous companies and trade organizations have objected that the compliance date set forth in that document is impracticable, Customs is suspending the compliance date, pending a determination based on comments received in response to another document published in today's Federal Register. EFFECTIVE DATE: This suspension of the May 8, 1994 compliance date for T.D. 94-5 is effective March 29, 1994. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Robert Cascardo, Value and Marking Branch, Office of Regulations and Rulings, U.S. Customs Service, (202) 482-7010. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On December 29, 1993, pursuant to section 516 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, Customs issued T.D. 94-5, a Decision and Final Interpretive Rule concerning the country of origin marking requirements for retail packages containing imported frozen produce. 58 FR 68743 (December 29, 1993). In T.D. 94-5, Customs reversed a previous determination and ruled that country of origin marking must appear on the front panel of such packages in specified type face and size. The legally effective date of the determination was February 11, 1994. However, parties adversely affected by the final interpretive rule were allowed until May 8, 1994, to bring their imported frozen packaging into compliance. Numerous individual companies and several trade organizations objected that even this extended date for compliance is impracticable, and have requested suspension of the May 8, 1994, compliance date. In accordance with these requests, Customs is suspending the May 8, 1994, effective date for parties adversely affected by compliance obligations under T.D. 94-5. In a companion document to be published today in the Federal Register, Customs is giving public notice of its intention to adopt a new compliance date of January 1, 1995. Public comment is being requested on both the date for compliance with the requirement to place country of origin marking on the front panels of produce packaging, and on the specifications regarding type size and style set forth in T.D. 94-5. Authority This notice is published in accordance with 19 U.S.C. 1516 and parts 134 and 175, Customs Regulations (19 CFR part 134; 19 CFR part 175). Drafting Information The principal drafter of this document was Robert Cascardo, Value and Marking Branch, U.S. Customs Service. Personnel from other Customs offices participated in its development. Samuel H. Banks, Acting Commissioner of Customs. Approved: March 21, 1994. John P. Simpson. Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury.

Firstly, thank you Random House and Netgalley for giving me an advanced reading copy of this book. It was an honour to read it.
Chanel is a name that needs no introduction and this memoir is no exception. Written by Rhonda Garelick it is a beautiful recollection of the life of the one and only Gabrielle Chanel. Anybody that is in anyway fashion obsessed will inevitably know the name and the world famous logo of entwined C's.
This book explores her life and loves. From her lonely and tragic upbringing in a French orphanage to a step by step account of the fascinating life she led and how she undoubtedly become one of the richest and most famous woman of her time and beyond.
Steeped in history and takes you on an emotional journey and has some interesting photographs throughout the book. It's researched impeccably and is bursting with facts about Gabrielle Chanel's life, her siblings and her many lovers. It was utterly fascinating to read about the affairs and scandal that went on in a time that it was almost unheard of.
As a massive fan of Chanel and her work I'm delighted to have read this book. Not only was it packed with unknown information I got the feeling that I was being let in on a secret with every page I turned.
This is a lot more than a rags to riches story. It describes in great detail about how Chanel's mind worked when it came to her business. It describes her love for all things luxurious and goes into great detail about the wars and the effect and sometimes inspiration these awful hard times had on Coco's designs. Simply beautiful.

Do you find it hard to communicate to a partner or friend who doesnt have BP?
I feel like me and mine are having seperate conversations sometimes
I feel like me and mine are having seperate conversations sometimes
I used to alot and do sometimes now, but it is so much better. It takes alot of practice on our part to open up to them but not to have too high expectations that they can relate. They cant relate if they have not been here. I just work at it until he gets where I am coming from and other times it might not be worth it. The timing has to be right. xo
I find it hard to communicate with anyone at times.Damn psychosis. Although I do find it harder with non-beepers cos they don't understand what we go through.
The biggest problems I have is that when I'm really REALLY depressed my senses start shutting down. My pdoc says there's so much going on inside of me that my body overloads and starts shutting down wherever it can. This often results in me not hearing people when they talk to me or even when they say my name. My husband gets very frustrated b/c it appears as if I'm just ignoring him. He's learning to touchh my arm and say my name a couple of times to get me back.
My husband tries his best to understand but just doesn't get it sometimes. I find it much easier talking to others with similar problems.

Horoscopes are fun. They are funny/ Until you realize that people believe in them. Then they are not so fun. They are sad–pathetically sad. I use to write the horoscope for a small newspaper. The rules were to be more positive and say things that matched the predetermined script for the month. I wrote some doozies. But they never made it to print. I hear one is framed on a wall at a large newspaper.
The arrogance of a person, who cannot explain the influence, the actual attraction of the moon, let alone the other planets, to tell me that these influences which if they do exist are not known to this person, to tell me that my personality can be predicted by them. That is beyond arrogance. Actually that is saying, "I know more than you because you are stupid and believe my mumbo jumbo."
Every, and I mean every, true research study, using scientific principles, has placed the horoscope below alchemy, phrenology and liberalism. (you might need to reread that).
I studied for 12 years in college and graduate school to understand the human personality. I earned two post docs, one in neuropsychology and one in forensics. I tested, evaluated and interviewed people often charged with serious crimes. I had the test results of years of scientific research backing up my findings. I swear the defense attorney read the criminal's horoscope to the jury (a jury is defined as12 people of average ignorance). The criminal walked and a poll of the jury said they couldn't get past the horoscope. I realized that education was wasted on the masses.
I did sharpen my sense of humor with the aforementioned. Truth, research, honesty and research findings mean nothing to people who believe in horoscopes. I had a patient who controlled his wife's depression, actually got her off medication and functioning, by reading her horoscope that he made up on the internet. So maybe it does have a purpose. People with thinking problems take medication and gullible people read horoscopes. I can work with that.
I will stop here but I should add that there is something worse than the horoscope that people who have or had belief in the horoscope have now succumbed to. If I were to write here and now it would be a rant. I have another avenue for that piece.
I was baptized a month and 6 days after birth. Back in those days you baptized the baby the same week as the birth. The church records had my birth date very close to my baptism date. In reality, I was born a full month later than my state records show. When I showed this to a horoscope person she asked my family questions and said I fit the sign under which I was born to a near perfect match. Only problem was that was not the sign I was born under. My sisters and parents laughed but I was confused because the horoscope lady said nice things about me. My sister said they laughed because none of the stuff was true, I was born under the sign of the DEVIL. They had me convinced.
Today "Pay close attention to financial matters as your moon is affected by the movement of Saturn. The rings of Saturn bring on financial concerns to people under your sign. A relationship of note awaits you this month. Be wary as this relationship has long term affects. Your health will need to rest as you work too hard and have weakened your system"
I made that up. But I will abide by it nonetheless.

The kids end up in our bed A LOT! Zack has nightmares most nights and Skyler has reverted to babyhood. She just wants to snuggle in the middle, every night. She's also fond of having her head on your pillow and sleeping face to face, noses touching. Zack on the other hand would prefer if you would keep to YOUR side of YOUR bed. Most nights we play musical beds and I barely notice who's sleeping where anymore.
So last night Zack has a nightmare and comes flying in to my bed. I let him in but insist that he gets in the middle because I'm tired of being squished between Matt and whomever is visiting. He grumbles but climbs in. A little while later he informs me that he's going back to his own bed, clearing the way for visitor number two one hour later.
The next morning I ask Zack about his nightmare, he tells me and then says that he tried to sleep with us but he had to go back to his own room because it was too loud. He said "Daddy was snoring!" I asked "Was Mommy snoring too?" he replied "No, you were just... BREATHING!" Yeah Buddy, I do that sometimes.

Big Brother Africa HotShots star, Kacey Moore, has fulfilled his promise. He has released the official music video for his latest Rap and poetry work "Kill The New Guy" – a rework of Sarkodie's "New Guy" which features American Gangster rap artiste, Ace Hood.
Directed by young talented Nii Sackey of Sacre Films, "Kill The New Guy" depicts and unveils Kacey Moore's versatility.
The provocative black and white motion pictures also captures Kacey Moore in African prints throughout.
What influenced his decision to go for black and white motion pictures was the fact that he "Wanted to represent the (new guys) upcoming artistes who have no money to shoot world class videos but have good songs."
"The black and white represent the times when film making began and they didn't have good lights and cameras to produce good quality pictures," he added.

Would you believe 12 pounds?
As I am a strange individual, I decided to actually weigh the gargantuan Corporate Strategy project. It weighs in at 4 pounds alone, in its final form of 305 pages, without the 50 pages of financials. Then, just to entertain myself further and distract myself from the number on the scale (I was holding the notebook to weigh it), I weighed the final paper with the reams of paper holding "research". 12 pounds! 12 pounds! Now I'm working on the presentation. To all my friends, remember me tonight. I'm thinking it's going to be brutal, but I can do anything for 20 minutes. Then I never have to do it again! And there will be excitement and jubilation around 8:45 tonight, unless I'm too devestated by the whole thing. Then I will jubilate tomorrow.
