CTV announced today that the highly anticipated new comedy is now receiving an exclusive advance digital preview of the series premiere, before it joins CTV's incredible new Tuesday night lineup later this month. A loving but somewhat outlandish family, The Goldbergs are direct from the '80s - a time before parenting blogs, trophies for showing up, and peanut allergies."The digital preview is a great way to generate even more buzz for one of the most talked-about new comedies this fall," said Mike Cosentino, Senior Vice-President, Programming, CTV Networks.

Adam is the youngest, a camera-wielding future director who's crushing on an older woman, 15-year-old Zoe. Rounding out the family is beloved grandfather Al "Pops" Solomon (George Segal), the wild man of the clan and a shameless Don Juan who's schooling Adam in the ways of love.New episodes of THE GOLDBERGS will also be available the day following its television broadcast across CTV's digital platforms, including CTV.ca, the CTV App, the CTV Mobile channel on Bell Mobile TV, and through video on demand partners such as Bell Fibe TV.THE GOLDBERGS was written and executive-produced by Adam F.

Source: Tulsa World, Okla.迷你倉Sept. 06--Crying is normal for babies, and they should never be shaken, no matter how frustrated a person gets.Oklahoma State Department of Health officials hope people will remember that when they see a purple cap on a baby.The Health Department is looking for volunteers to knit or crochet the purple caps, which will be distributed to newborns at 34 hospitals in November and December as part of the CLICK for Babies project.Ann Benson, administrative program manager for child and adolescent health at the state Health Department, said babies can cry for hours, and that that is normal."It doesn't always mean something is wrong," she said.The cap distribution campaign is part of a program called the Period of PURPLE Crying, with each letter in purple standing for a word or phrase."P" is for peak of crying, which usually occurs at about two months."U" is for unexpected, as crying can come and go, and parents may not know why."R" is for resists soothing, a reminder that babies can keep crying no matter what you do.The second "P" is for painlike face. Babies might look like they are in pain when they are not."L" is for long-lasting, because crying can last for five or more hours a day."E" is for evening, when babies are most likely to cry.If the baby has fever or is showing other symptoms of illness, the crying can indicate a problem that needs to be addressed.Benson said volunteers can choose any pattern and any shade of purple for the caps, as long as they use baby-soft yarn.Anything attached to the cap should be secured tightly so it doesn't become a choking hazard, she said.Shaking a baby can文件倉cause bleeding that can create pressure and cut off oxygen to the brain. Shaking is particularly dangerous for babies because their brains are smaller and have more room to move around in their skulls and, because their brain matter is softer, can break apart easily.Also, their neck muscles are less developed, said Keri Lyons, director of the Never Shake a Baby program at the Parent Child Center of Tulsa, which is helping with the cap distribution."They're just more susceptible to injury because of the way their anatomy is," she said, adding that shaking a baby for two to three seconds can cause severe injury.The Parent Child Center goes to five participating Tulsa hospitals year-round to educate parents about babies' crying habits and pass out a DVD that can be shared with other caregivers, Lyons said."It's basically to help them understand what's going on and deal with it," she said.Last year, the center's employees visited with 13,000 people and during November and December distributed about 1,200 purple caps, she said.Their goal is to collect at least 1,500 caps this year, Lyons said.Between 2001 and 2010 in Oklahoma, 93 babies -- including 11 in Tulsa -- died from shaking. They ranged in age from 1 month to 3 years.How you can helpMail purple caps for babies to:Parent Child Center of Tulsa1421 S. Boston Ave.Tulsa, OK 74119Oklahoma Child Death Review Board111 N.

BT Weekend susses out three new shops selling bread and pastry that will surely raise the bar for all existing bakeries hereLive by bread aloneArtisan Boulangerie Compagnie118 Killiney Road #01-01Tel: 6444 8130Hours: 8am-10pm dailyIF Eran Mayer had his way, Singaporeans would visit their neighbourhood bakeries three times a day, just to pick up fresh loaves of bread and pastries for breakfast, lunch or dinner.迷你倉Acknowledging that it may take a few months or maybe a few years, "it is my aim to see each household in Singapore with a loaf of fresh, preservative-free bread in the middle of their table all the time," says the 41-year-old, adding cheekily: "We're going to throw the rice cooker out."Mr Mayer is the head baker at week-old Artisan Boulangerie Compagnie (ABC), a smartly done up French bakery along Killiney Road owned by The Zest Group, an F&B company that also invests in brands such as Twelve Cupcakes here.But Mr Mayer isn't just pushing for the brazen consumption of carbohydrates, rather, a finer appreciation of the craftsmanship that goes into bread making.Which is why at ABC, a long chef's table of sorts is the first thing you see when you step into the 1,800 sq ft dine-in space. It is possibly the best seat in the house - as from there you can take in unhindered views of the sprawling 2,500 sq ft kitchen that cost them $700,000 to fit out, and Mr Mayer within it, sniffing at baguettes coming fresh out of the oven or waxing lyrical about letting the breads sing their song (his poetic way of referring to the subtle cracking sounds made by the baguette crust as it cools)."Bakers usually do their work at night, so that when people come into the bakery in the morning, all they see is a wall of beautiful pastry," he says. "Our idea is to expose the magic, to let people see the ovens, the handwork, and the creative process that goes into our breads."And Mr Mayer is a bread and butter geek if we ever met one: he eagerly launches into a discussion on the finers points of butter from Normandy versus butter from Charentes-Poitou (the former is where the butter he currently uses is from; the latter, where he would like to import his favourite butter from); and only flour imported from Minoterie Viron, a small family-run flour mill in Chartres, west of Paris, is used in the kitchens of ABC. Everything is mixed in-house, pre-mixes are strictly forbidden.So ABC's baguettes may not all turn out uniformly shaped, but that's the whole point. From the uneven folds in each flaky layer of his rich, buttery croissants, to the scarification atop each baguette - or what Mr Mayer calls the "baker's signature" - he says: "I like when you see the hand of the artisan in our breads, it reminds you that it is made by a human, not a machine."It's no mean feat, considering that Mr Mayer's kitchen team of 18 has to churn out more than 50 different items (including more than 15 types of breads) that are sold at the 75-seater each day - but that's the only way Mr Mayer knows how to do it.Born to a German family in Israel, Mr Mayer spent most of his 20-year baking career working in artisan bakeries across France, and has even taken home top honours in annual baguette competitions in the country.Unlike other bakery chains that bank on flying in consulting French chefs to perform quality checks only from time to time, Mr Mayer is here to stay, and so is the bakery's consistency, he says. He uprooted his homemaker wife and two daughters, aged three and nine, to Singapore in June, and now lives just a few paces from the bakery.In homage to his new neighbourhood - chosen largely for its promixity to residents, whom he hopes to convert to regulars - he christened his signature bake the Killiney loaf ($18 for a 1kg loaf, also available in 500g). Made from on a personal recipe he's been perfecting for the last 25 years, the loaf is a hefty, rustic chunk that resembles a leg of parma ham, but slices open to reveal a bouyant and slightly moist centre.Other creations from the expansive range include pastries such as zesty orange brioches and lemon tarts to start your mornings with, to hearty rye grain and cereal-studded dark bread, and raisin-filled muesli loaves. Prices generally range from $2 to $10.Savoury food items such as salads, toasted sandwiches, quiches and pies, and cheese and charcuterie platters showcasing the home-made breads are available for lunch too, while a weekend brunch menu will be rolled out in a fortnight. Plans for a second outlet in Great World City by year-end are also underway."The whole idea is to create a happy place, where our bakery becomes an extension of people's homes," adds Mr Mayer.By Debbie Yongdebyong@sph.com.sgIn full bloomAnthesis86 Robertson Quay #01-01Tel: 6737 9873Hours: 8.30am-5.30pm dailyAFTER two attempts at holding down what her father deemed "a proper job" in the banking industry, Melanie Ng, 29, found herself trading it all in again to return to her first love - food.The latest project for the former Goldman Sachs banker: Anthesis, a month-old 1,7000 sq ft cafe tucked within a gorgeously restored warehouse along Robertson Quay.There is a sense of deja vu for Ms Ng, who similarly gave up a banking role in Morgan Stanley in 2009 to co-found dessert chain 1-Caramel in Handy Road with the One Rochester Group (she has since sold her shares back to the group)."I thought it'd be easier the second time, but it isn't," laughs Ms Ng, whose older sister Severine, 36, is also a business partner.Instead of just focusing on pastries (the lemon tart儲存is a must) and desserts, Anthesis - which refers to the period when a flower is in full bloom - offers freshly baked breads, hot food and a range of gourmet teas, coffee and craft beers.Though Ms Ng herself has been a hobbyist baker since her undergraduate days in Sydney, she roped in veteran baker Gan Eng Ling, 50, to run things on a more commercial scale. He churns out innovative creations such as oatmeal carrot loaves and spinach and parmesan brioches, on top of usual bakes such as mini baguettes and walnut breads, on a daily basis. Pastry prices start from $2.50 for a macaron, while breads cost upwards of $2.80 for a short baguette.The food menu is designed to showcase the cafe's homemade breads, so you get bread platters, eggs on toast, soups and salads and brunch staples such as eggs benedict, pancakes, and a banana split French toast stack ($16) made with slices of brioche and drizzled with maple syrup, caramelised banana and fresh strawberry slices. For something a little more unconventional, go for the tuna tataki sandwich ($18), lightly seared pepper-crusted slabs of tuna perched on a sourdough toast and coiffed with alfalfa sprouts and avocado. All the sandwiches on offer can be made from your choice of bread ranging from wholemeal, sourdough, ciabatta, baguette or a more premium selection of multigrain, olive focaccia, herb, dark rye, pumpkin seed or walnut bread.The house coffee, meanwhile, is a blend of Brazilian, Sumatran and Guatemalan beans specially customised by a local coffee roaster, while teas are from American organic tea specialist, The Art of Tea.Ms Ng and her team are currently working on a dinner menu to be launched early next month to cater to the area's laidback and largely residential evening crowd."We chose this spot in Robertson Quay because it's very relaxed, you don't feel like you're in Singapore - even though you're right in the heart of the city," says Ms Ng, of the 70-seater loft-like space, with 25 alfresco seats by the edge of the Singapore River.When operations stabilise, Ms Ng also plans to wholesale her breads to other independent cafes."People are more health conscious these days, and the best way to ensure your breads are organic and preservative-free is to do it yourself," explains Ms Ng.By Debbie YongA first for Lady MLady M ConfectionsMarina Square Shopping Mall,6 Raffles Boulevard, #02-103Opens Sep 8Hours: 10am - 10pm daily. Last orders at 9.30pmTHEY say that sometimes it's not what you know but who you know. That was, indeed, how ViJay Pillai came to open acclaimed New York cake brand, Lady M's first offshore outpost in Singapore.Scheduled to open to the public tomorrow, the 56-seater Lady M Singapore is only the chain's fifth store; it has three other outlets in New York, and one in Los Angeles. The brand originated in New York's Upper East Side in 2001, and quickly grew to become a cult hit in Manhattan with long queues for its signature layered crepe cakes.Lady M was founded by Kumi Romaniszyn and her son Ken - both family friends of Mr Pillai, 27, who will serve as their Singapore director. He also runs Caerus Holdings, an F&B group that manages restaurants in Malaysia and Singapore and a wine distribution business in India and the Maldives.According to Mr Pillai, the two parties only decided to embark on this joint-venture together some time last year, even though Lady M Confections has been around for over a decade. One reason he took his time was that he wanted to be able to maintain the quality of the brand, which depends a lot on getting the right ingredients. "Getting the cream and the flour was the hardest part. Making the cakes is purely about ingredients and technique," he states.Their signature mille crepe cakes, for instance, are made up of 20 layers of thin crepes, with a cream filling between each layer. Each cake has to be handmade over a period of 10 hours, from the time the batter is mixed to the time it is placed on a cake stand. Since it is such a long process, their team of six bakers in the central kitchen can only make about 30 cakes a day, and a total of about 200 cakes if you include other flavours and pastries, says Mr Pillai. "Our biggest worry now is to be able to meet the demand," he adds.The upside of the joint venture, however, is that he has some help from the New York branch. One of Lady M's founding chefs is relocating to Singapore, and will stay on to develop new flavours incorporating local accents.Meanwhile, customers can expect an initial selection of eight of the brand's core cakes, such as the signature mille crepe, the green tea mille, strawberry shortcake and berry tart, along with individual pastries such as the Mont Blanc and chocolate eclairs. More items will be gradually added to match the full selection currently available in the US. Tarts will average $9 per slice, while the signaure mille crepe cakes will go for $7 per slice and $40 to $65 for 6-inch and 9-inch cakes respectively.A second, more intimate 900 sq ft outlet in One Fullerton will open in October, and will be positioned as a slightly more intimate, late-night dessert bar.Despite the Marina Square Singapore flagship being twice the size of Lady M's original New York outlet at 2,000 sq ft, Pillai says he hopes to adhere to the same concept of keeping the focus on the cakes.As such, the decor of the Singapore store will be kept to barren white walls on purpose. "The idea is to let the cakes stand out the most, and become the focus of the whole store," he says.By Rachel Loirachloi@sph.com.sg新蒲崗迷你倉

Source: Dayton Daily News, OhioSept.迷你倉 06--While crime trends are mixed this year in the area's largest suburbs, crime rates in the city of Dayton have declined in seven of the eight major categories compared to last year.Through the first eight months of 2013, violent crime in Dayton -- homicide, rape, robbery and aggravated assault -- is down 7 percent from last year, according to police statistics. Property crime -- residential burglary, arson and two types of theft -- is down 12 percent.Dayton's three largest suburbs -- Kettering, Beavercreek and Huber Heights -- have much lower overall rates of crime than Dayton. Kettering's violent crime rate is up slightly this year, to 29 incidents through July, but that is dwarfed by Dayton's 821 incidents through August.Property crime trends are up this year in Kettering and Beavercreek, with burglary, larceny and car theft numbers up according to police in both cities. Huber Heights' comparatively low homicide and rape numbers numbers also have risen this year.An apples-to-apples comparison of crime statistics between cities is difficult, because of different incident reporting systems and ways the cities categorize crimes.Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl said his city's success in lowering crime rates is not limited to this year. Tracking a three-year trend, Dayton's 821 violent crimes through August this year marks a 20 percent decline from the 1,026 that happened in the first eight months of 2010. Property crime is down 15.5 percent in that span.The Dayton trend follows national statistics reported. Violent crime fell for the fifth year in a row, dropping 4.5 percent (for every 100,000 people), according to FBI's statistics released for 2011, the most recent available. Property crime fell for the ninth year in a row by 1.3 percent, according to the FBI.If you ask Biehl, Dayton Mayor Gary Leitzell, community leaders and Dayton's police union, you'll get a variety of reasons for the drop in crime here."The biggest change for us ... was the restructuring we went through early in 2011," Biehl said, referring to a move to decentralize property crime detectives. "It created a true synergy between patrol officers who are out in the community 24/7, the detectives who have to do follow-up investigation on unsolved crimes, and crime prevention officers who respond to emerging crime patterns and implement prevention strategies. It got them all talking and working together."Dayton Fraternal Order of Police President Mike Galbraith disagreed on the value of the restructuring, but he raised two other issues that echoed Biehl's reasoning.The first was Dayton's ability to hire police officers again after a multi-year, lawsuit-induced hiring freeze. Dayton's first two classes totaling 43 new officers have hit the streets -- one last year and one this year -- and a third class is in the police academy. Galbraith's other idea dealt with collaboration with other agencies."I think a lot of it has to do with local agencies teaming up with federal agencies, and working together and taking major criminals in Dayton off the street," Galbraith said. "We've removed several individuals who were responsible for homicides and drug trafficking儲存倉 and a lot of them are doing federal prison time."Property crime is the biggest concern in Kettering, and Police Chief James O'Dell said the city's numbers rose this year due in part to the work of some"career criminals" who have since been arrested. O'Dell said Kettering's arrest numbers are also up this year, and case clearance rates are well above national averages."The best measure is our residents' perception of safety," O'Dell said. "Our 2012 Citizen Satisfaction Survey tells us that people feel safe in their neighborhoods."Kevin Jones, president of the Fair River Oaks Priority Board, said the declining crime numbers in Dayton sound fairly accurate based on what he's seen in northwest Dayton, but he wonders how much crime isn't reported at all, as people worry about their own safety and choose not to get involved.That worry dovetails with one of Biehl's main concerns."To this day, despite improvements in technology, interviewing techniques and forensics, the most important factor in whether police solve a crime or not is whether citizens will tell them who did it," he said. "And that's all based on relationships. How do they feel about the police officers that serve in their community? Do they know them? Do they like them? Do they trust them?"Jones said that's a mixed bag citywide, but is a success in the Phoenix Project area near Good Samaritan hospital, where hospital funding helps pay for focused policing by Dayton officers."They have assigned officers, and their whole responsibility is this community," Jones said. "They take ownership. It's not their job that they go to everyday, it's their neighborhood. They sound like the gang players, because they become territorial. And I see that starting to improve in some other neighborhoods, too, as officers take ownership."Leitzell said Dayton still has an unfair perception problem, arguing that law-abiding citizens are very unlikely to become crime victims in the city."When you're city-specific (about crime), people are afraid to come to all of Dayton," Leitzell said. "If you're neighborhood-specific ... what that does for the citizens, is they can identify that certain neighborhoods need help."Leitzell also focused on the need for a better relationship between police and city residents."I think we're getting there," Leitzell said. "There's still a big divide, which is why we have the community-police relations group that Commissioner Williams put together. That was long overdue, and they're realizing there's a dialogue that has to be held. Certain cultures don't trust the police, and they may be justified in doing so, so it's up to our police department to reach out and be willing to help solve some of the problems."Biehl said those who point to a population decline as the reason for Dayton's crime decline have their numbers wrong. Dayton's violent crime rate has dropped 20 percent in three years, while Dayton's population declined less than 15 percent all of last decade, and actually increased in 2011 according to Census estimates.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Dayton Daily News (Dayton, Ohio) Visit the Dayton Daily News (Dayton, Ohio) at .daytondailynews.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉價錢

Source: The Columbian, Vancouver, Wash.迷你倉Sept. 06--The apparently random East Minnehaha home invasion that led to the death of an inebriated intruder last summer was "the strangest case I've ever worked," said Clark County Sheriff's Office Detective Lindsay Schultz.The makers of "Panic 911" found it strange, too. Last month, a crew from the A&E Network thriller show, which analyzes and dramatizes actual 911 calls, turned a sheriff's office conference room into a television studio while interviewing Schultz and K-9 deputy Brian Ellithorpe about the case."It was a unique experience. I'm not used to doing stuff like this," said Schultz, who worked as a patrol officer for five years before moving up to detective with the Major Crimes Unit. Her own crime investigation interviews have been known to grow "long and stressful and tiresome," she said -- but nothing like her own interrogation by a TV crew. That lasted for four long hours and was minutely detailed, she said. "It was a little bit fun and incredibly stressful," she said.It was also quarterbacked from afar. The interviewer who sat opposite Schultz was in constant electronic contact with a producer back at the home studio; that producer monitored the interview and prompted the interviewer, in real time, about what details to pursue."They really knew the case. I was impressed with their accuracy and research. They were very, very well prepared," Schultz said. Also, she added, the A&E crew was "very sensitive to the family."That family, Robert and Janice Blakemore, decided not to participate, and a different name is being substituted for theirs in the show. But儲存the couple didn't have a problem with the sheriff's office participating, Schultz said.What happened, according to news reports and Schultz's recollection, was this: Early on the morning of Aug. 25, 2012, a 42-year-old man named Chris Billings, of Kansas City, Mo., was visiting Vancouver friends. The friends found Billings to be "out of control," Schultz said, and sent him packing in the direction of a state trooper they noticed making a traffic stop. The trooper was busy and called for backup, but in the meantime, Billings stumbled farther down the street, smashed through a fence and let himself in the open back door of the Blakemore home on Northeast 54th Avenue.When Billings broke through their locked bedroom door, Robert Blakemore shot and killed him. Police showed up moments later. Blakemore was not charged with a crime."They are some of the nicest people I have ever met. This thing was so random," said Schultz.Schultz said she was not a fan of "Panic 911." "I never even heard of it. But I watched an episode the other day. It's not a bad show," she said."It was interesting. I think they are looking to show how situations begin" -- and the sketchy nature of the information that dispatchers and police must go on, she said. "I guess I'm used to that stuff."The episode of "Panic 911" is scheduled to air at 10 p.m. Thursday on A&E.------Bits 'n' Pieces appears Fridays and Saturdays.

Source: Detroit Free PressSept.存倉 06--By now, you've long known that Ariel Castro, the monster from Cleveland who held three young women captive for the better part of 10 years, committed suicide in an Ohio jail cell.Castro used the bedsheets in his prison cell to hang himself just one month into his life-plus-1,000-years' sentence, ending his own suffering.The news has been tugging at me for days -- the same way the initial stories about Castro's house of horrors did back in May.My mind keeps going back to a picture of Amanda Berry, who managed to escape from her prison through sheer determination, screaming through the door for help for herself, the two other women he held captive, and for the little girl she bore to Castro in that awful house on Seymour Street.I keep thinking about that 6-year-old child, and what Berry must be telling her now about her father, now that he's dead, now that he took the easy way out.What does that little girl remember of Castro, and how will the narrative play out for her as she grows up? This little girl shared a room with her mom with a Pocahontas poster on the wall, and knew only of life in a place where there were boards over the windows, chains, and locks on every door. Will Berry tell her that her father was a beast of a man with no compassion?Footage of an FBI interview with Castro in the hours after his arrest emerged this morning. In it, Castro speaks about how he used Berry's cell phone in 2003 to call her mother and tell her she was still alive."I think I said something, that I have her daughter, and that she's OK and that she's my wife now -- something like that, probably not the exact words," he says on the video. He 迷你倉old investigators he hung up before Berry's mother, Louwana Miller, could engage him in conversation.Miller never stopped looking for her daughter, who was taken on the eve of her 17th birthday while walking home from her job at Burger King. Miller died in 2006, still heartbroken. Perhaps she kept on looking and never gave up hope because of that single phone call. We'll never know.Castro also told investigators in the video footage that it was the little girl he had with Berry who persuaded him to leave a bedroom door unlocked that day in May when Berry was able to get to the front of the house; it was just enough to have her cries heard for the first time in a decade.Courage is all I can think about. In the face of a violent man who tortured and beat her mother, this little girl talked Castro into making what would become his biggest mistake.Yet in the end, cowardice is all that Castro had in him.-- Related story: Cleveland kidnapping victim Michelle Knight: 'I spent 11 years in hell'Though he stole years of their lives, none of the women he tortured advocated that Castro should be put to death. No, that would be too kind for a man who starved them, who beat them, who raped them. After all he did to them, Castro could manage only 30 days in prison, life in far better conditions than he offered them.Now that he's gone, we can only pray that his daughter draws from the incredible legacy of strength and love of her mother and late grandmother, and that she won't remember the cruelty or the cowardice of the man who fathered her.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Detroit Free Press Visit the Detroit Free Press at .freep.com Distributed by MCT Information Services自存倉

Source: Tulsa World, Okla.迷你倉Sept. 06--Federal officials have given Oklahoma a one-year extension of the popular Insure Oklahoma program, extending coverage to a group of the poorest residents in jeopardy of losing health care on Dec. 31.The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has approved a one-year extension of Insure Oklahoma, officials told the Tulsa World on Friday.Gov. Mary Fallin discussed the extension during a 10:30 a.m. press conference, saying the agreement "is a big win for Oklahoma and the tens of thousands of adults and children who currently buy health insurance through Insure Oklahoma.""These Oklahomans and their families can now rest easy knowing that they won't lose their insurance on Jan. 1," she said.Insure Oklahoma subsidizes private health insurance for nearly 30,000 low-income workers. It was created in 2005 after state voters approved an increase in tobacco taxes to fund health-care improvements.The program uses $50 million a year in state tobacco tax revenue, federal Medicaid money and employer contributions to subsidize private health insurance. It covers low-income individuals and employees whose employers take part in the program.The Obama administration told Oklahoma this spring it would not renew the Medicaid waiver authorizing federal funds in the program because Insure Oklahoma did not meet requirements of the Affordable Care Act.The Department of Health and Human Services objected to the cap on the number of Insure Oklahoma participants. Without a waiver extension, Insure Oklahoma was to expire at the end of the year.Because Fallin rejected an expansion of Medicaid that accompanied the Affordable Care Act, thousands of the poorest Oklahomans -- those making about $12,000 a year or less -- would have been ineligible for subsidies to purchase insurance under the new law.Insure Oklahoma currently covers individuals and employees at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level, just under $24,000 per year. Income requirements for those covered by Insure Oklahoma through their employers will not change under the extended program.The extension allows people with incomes between 100 and 200 percent of the poverty level to be covered through the Affordable Care Act. The law allows individuals to shop for coverage through insurance "exchanges," websites where consumers can compare costs and details of vari儲存倉us plans.Under this agreement, however, the state will not be able to recoup as much money in federal reimbursement as states that accepted the Medicaid expansion. A Supreme Court decision that upheld the Affordable Care Act made acceptance of the Medicaid expansion voluntary.A report by the nonprofit Urban Institute found in the 25 states that rejected the Medicaid expansion, nearly 7 million adults under age 65 will be ineligible for coverage.Medicaid is a program in which states and the federal government provide health care for children, people with disabilities and pregnant women. Most adults who do not fall into those categories do not qualify for the program and the expansion was intended to cover them in all 50 states.Federal officials are not giving up hope that Fallin will change her mind and accept the expanded Medicaid funds.Emma Sandoe, a spokeswoman for Health and Human Services, said in an email to the Tulsa World: "We look forward to working with Oklahoma and all other states in bringing a flexible, state-based approach to Medicaid coverage expansion and encourage the state to explore these options."We encourage all states to adopt the Medicaid funding made possible by the Affordable Care Act, which provides 100 percent federal funding for three years and never falls below 90 percent federal funding for people newly eligible for Medicaid," Sandoe said.Fallin has said accepting the expansion would cost the state too much and that federal officials could change terms of the expansion in the future.Democratic lawmakers had urged Fallin to consider legislation dealing with Insure Oklahoma during a special session that began this week. Fallin said she would not expand the session to deal with subjects other than tort reform.Oklahoma has nearly 700,000 uninsured residents, ranking behind only four other states in number of uninsured. Enrollment under the Affordable Care Act is scheduled to begin Oct. 1 and continue for six months. Coverage is to start Jan. 1.Under the law's "individual mandate," Americans are required to have insurance or pay a fine, unless they fall into several narrow exempt categories. The fine for individuals is $95 the first year and escalates to $695 in 2016.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 Tulsa World (Tulsa, Okla.)

Source: American News, Aberdeen, S.迷你倉出租D.Sept. 06--Not that any Aberdeen Roncalli vs. Groton football game needs more hype, but tonight's annual contest comes with additional fanfare.The Northeast Conference football game at 5 p.m. at Swisher Field is part of the annual Hub City Bowl. The American News Game of the Week also mark's Roncalli's Homecoming, and it is the Cavaliers' first chance this fall to take the field as the top-rated Class 11B team in the state."I'm pretty sure there's a lot of teams at this particular point that think that they could probably be in there," said Roncalli coach Terry Dosch of the newly claimed top spot. "To my knowledge, that ranking and a buck will get a can of Coke."Facing a solid squad is nothing knew for Groton. Last week, the Tigers played Parkston, the third-rated team in 11B this week."We knew playing Parkston and Aberdeen this week, those are two of the better teams in 11B," said Groton coach Shaun Wanner. "You can't push the panic button. That's just going to make us a little bit better for the next six games."Roncalli struck quickly in its win over Redfield-Doland last week. The Cavaliers used a variety of big plays to offset less yardage and time of possession."We want to be able to run the ball better and control it a little bit more," Dosch noted. "We played a lot of defense. We just need to execute a little bit better and I think that will come."While Dosch said there was room for improvement on defense, he was pleased that his squad forced five turnovers last week."We just have to be aggressive and get to the ball and make things happen," he said.Groton features an experienced team, and while the Tigers failed to score to last week, Wanner saw plenty of reason for optimism."I thought for 2 1/2 quarters last week we played pretty good," Wanner pointed out. "They just kind of wore us down a little bit."Groton quarterback Parker Rossow threw for nearly 1,000 yards last season, but Wanner is looking for a balanced attack."We need to run the ball a little bit better," Wanner said. "That's one of my main concerns right now, because I know we can throw it."Wanner's biggest concern at the moment is Roncalli's big-play ability."They have some of the best skill kids in 11B," Wanner said. "That's what scares me a little bit, because I know they have a lot of different weapons at their skill positions. Every time they snap it, they can go the distance, whether throwing it or running it."Dosch knows that with the new number-one ranking, homecoming and Groton coming to town there will be plenty of commotion surrounding the game."You can't get too caught up in the all of the hurrah around who you're playing," Dosch cautioned. "Our jobs as coaches are to stay focused on the task at hand."Game notes: Roncalli defeated Groton last year in Groton during a thrilling season opener for both squads. Roncalli scored on the final play of the contest and added the PAT to pull out a 14-13 victory . . . Ronc迷你倉lli plays host to Flandreau at 7 p.m. next Friday . . .

Source: Bangor Daily News, MaineSept.self storage 06--PORTLAND, Maine -- Blueberries. Potatoes. Marijuana.These are three of Maine's top agricultural stalwarts."I would imagine it's one of the state's largest cash crops," said Becky DeKeuster, executive clinical director of the Wellness Connection of Maine, far and away the state's largest distributor of medical marijuana.That may be where the similarities drop off.Despite the fact that medical marijuana dispensaries were legalized in Maine in 2009, Wellness Connection officials say their business continues to be nagged by the federal prohibition of pot. And that's without the spectre of federal prosecution, as U.S. Justice Department officials have followed a hands-off approach to enforcement in states that have decriminalized the drug locally.Most insurance plans, using federal guidelines, won't cover medical marijuana use. Distributors cannot apply for federal nonprofit status. Science laboratories are reluctant to do research on the drug because most are funded by federal grants. Patients can be legally denied jobs. The list of underreported byproducts of the clash between state and U.S. marijuana laws goes on and on, said Wellness Connection Chief Operating Officer Patricia Rosi.That's on top of the lingering stigma that Rosi said continues to follow and embarrass medical marijuana users.It's a very different business landscape than exists for blueberry and potato growers.But unlike Maine's iconic blueberries, cannabis is being credited with -- as one patient said -- "giving people their lives back."Ruthann Carkhuff, 44, said she was diagnosed in 1996 with fibromyalgia and degenerative disc disease, conditions that sapped her of the ability to lift her limbs. Before starting to use medical marijuana about 21 months ago, Carkhuff couldn't hold her infant grandson."I couldn't even brush my hair, which we so often take for granted," she recalled. "Putting socks on or getting dressed was extremely difficult."She'd tried "pretty much every single painkiller" available -- including OxyContin -- and finally found relief at Wellness Connection. Carkhuff said she takes "between two and four puffs in the afternoon" and the effects last through the evening."That's it. I don't do it to a point where, excuse my phrasing, I'm high or stoned, which is what most people think," she said."There's still a lot of misconceptions that need to be debunked about medical marijuana and what a medical marijuana patient looks like," Rosi said.The value of the cropDeKeuster said there are no official or widely accepted numbers on the value of Maine's medical marijuana crop. Wellness Connection is the largest distributor, operating four of the state's eight total dispensaries -- in Thomaston, Brewer, Portland and Hallowell -- and has about 3,000 of the state's 4,500-plus dispensary patients.Distributors are allowed under state law to have six marijuana plants per patient. A commonly referenced law enforcement estimate is that each marijuana plant is worth approximately $3,000. So, based on simplistic math, if all of the state's distributors grow their maximum number of plants, Maine's medical marijuana crop is worth about $81 million.DeKeuster said Wellness Connection is growing "well below" its six-plant-per-patient maximum. But adding the patients who grow their own medical marijuana outside the dispensary system, which has been quietly allowed in Maine since 1999, brings the number of users up to a reported estimate of 13,000 Mainers.If each patient, combining dispensary members with those who grow their own, is represented by even just two plants, that would put the value of the statewide crop at $78 million.For comparison, Maine's wild blueberry harvest has been worth between $70 million and $80 million annually in recent years.An annual state Department of Health and Human Services report released late last month found that the Maine Medical Use of Marijuana Program took in $612,370 in fees in 2012, $146,342 more than it spent to regulate the nascent industry.A report by the Colorado-based publication Medical Marijuana Business Daily estimates that the medical marijuana industry will gross about $1.5 billion in sales nationwide this year, growing to about $6 billion per year by 2018.Efforts to legalize the recreational use of marijuana statewide in Maine, as has been done in Washington and Colorado, fell flat in the Legislature this year. Portland residents, however, will get a chance on Nov. 5 to vote on an ordinance change that would decriminalize possession of small amounts of the drug in Maine's largest city.Getting establishedAs the biggest and most recognizable entity in the field, Wellness Connection of Maine has become in some ways the face of the state's medical marijuana industry.And along the way, that face has gotten some black eyes.Wellness Connection is still in the process of fighting a National Labor Relations Board complaint filed by the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, which alleges the company "unlawfully retaliated" against employees for trying to organize a labor union.Wellness Connection, which expects to employ 50 people by the end of the year, has countered that it offers its workers good pay and benefits, and that employees hoping to unionize represent a minority.Rosi said the organization's average employee is paid 43 percent more than the minimum wage, receives 100 percent health care coverage and is offered a 401K plan with a company match."They've filed a complaint with the NLRB that we're working on and going through that process," Rosi said. "If the majority of workers want to unionize, then they can unionize. But I haven't seen a majority interest in unionizing."Before the emergence of the labor dispute, the organization was the subject of a high-profile investigation by the state Department of Health and Human Services in late March after word leaked it had been using pesticides at迷你倉its Auburn indoor growing facility.Rosi said Wellness Connection admitted to using several safe, organic pesticides such as sesame oil and canola oil, and were cited by state investigators because rules on the books at the time did not allow for any topical pesticides.Since then, she said, the organization has begun using tiny parasitic wasps to battle back crop-eating aphids, and an emergency bill was passed by the Legislature to allow the use of "minimum risk" pesticide applications like many of those Wellness Connection was previously scolded for."Initially, the regulations said you couldn't use anything on cannabis and if you're growing tomatoes or anything else, you need some way to control pests," DeKeuster said. As a result of the dispute over Wellness Connection's practices, "Maine was one of the first -- if not the first -- in the country to clarify what it is we can use on cannabis."In a statement provided to the Bangor Daily News on Thursday by DHHS spokesman John Martins, the department's Division of Licensing and Regulatory Services reported that "Wellness Connection has addressed all of our concerns to our satisfaction and has been cooperative with the division.""Their program is compliant with the Maine Medical Marijuana Program rules and as such, they are fully licensed," the department statement said.The struggle over pesticides reveals a number of ways in which the federal prohibition on medical marijuana continues to plague Maine distributors even though the practice is legalized at the state level.State regulations allow a farmer growing corn to use any number of topical pesticides on the market that list corn crops as one of their federally approved applications, for example. But because marijuana isn't recognized as legal by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency or U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the entities that primarily regulate pesticides, cannabis is never listed as an approved crop.So while Mainers may commonly be eating fruits and vegetables that were grown using pesticides, medical marijuana has fallen outside the purview of the makers and regulators of pesticides, leaving almost all of them off-limits.The federal prohibition is impactful in another way on the pesticides front as well: It scares away many scientists who could otherwise prove that certain organic applications are safe."We couldn't even spray lemon juice on the leaves of a 6-inch-tall plant," DeKeuster recalled."There have been no clinical trials on what happens when lemon juice is inhaled," Rosi added. "A lot of laboratories are funded by federal grants, and they refuse to work on our crops because they're worried about losing federal grant funding."Medical marijuana patientsFrom the patient side, the federal prohibition of medical marijuana presents different challenges, but the U.S. government isn't the only one giving disapproving looks."When people think of marijuana dispensaries, they think of small, dark, gloomy places where people are all wearing tie-dye," Rosi said. "We're exactly the opposite."In one of the first media interviews allowed by Wellness Connection inside its Portland dispensary, located off Congress Street behind Local 188 restaurant, Rosi and DeKeuster sat in an open, brightly lit space with lime green walls decorated with images of birch trees.A few couches, tables and brochure racks represented the only furnishings in an environment more clean and illuminated than many of the city's popular coffee shops.DeKeuster said the organization's average patient is a male in his mid-50s."We see a lot of folks dealing with cancer, we see a lot of folks dealing with chronic pain," she said."Contractors, fishermen, lobstermen," Rosi added.But one patient, Colleen Jones-Turner, 52, said she expects that one of her doctors may drop her when her name appears in print for a story about medical marijuana."It isn't easy to be a medical marijuana patient," said Jones-Turner, who was diagnosed with epilepsy as a child. "For years, I had doctors who would say, 'We want you on medical marijuana,' but none of them would prescribe it because they were scared of getting a reputation."Fellow patient Carkhuff, battling fibromyalgia and degenerative disc disease, said her mother still struggles to accept her choice of medical treatment. The worst of it, Carkhuff said, has been explaining her condition and medicine to employers."I was denied two positions and they did explain to me it was because of the medical cannabis," she said. "I was glad they were honest, but they said, 'We'd rather have someone with a clean urine test and someone we know.'"DeKeuster said based on the latest legal precedents, employers can fire or refuse to hire someone for testing positive for marijuana even when that person is legally using the drug medicinally."Somebody out in their car rolling a joint reflects on all of us, but that's not representative of who we are [in the medical marijuana field]," DeKeuster said.Additionally, insurance plans don't cover medical marijuana because of its status as a federally outlawed substance, she said."We do have a low-income program for folks on MaineCare or other programs, because we do realize that some patients are having to decide between medicine and food or rent," DeKeuster said.But the lack of insurance help remains another federal hurdle in the fledgling state industry, Rosi said."This is really an emerging industry. When was the last time an underground industry went above-ground? There was alcohol prohibition [in 1933] and then this," Rosi said. "So much of what we're up against is fear. Doctors fear something. The patients fear other things, neighbors and community members fear something. Employers have fear and employees have fear. How do you remove fear?"Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Bangor Daily News (Bangor, Maine) Visit the Bangor Daily News (Bangor, Maine) at .bangordailynews.com Distributed by MCT Information Services文件倉

三亞灣紅樹林推出的股權式酒店分紅模式正受到業界關注。資料圖片8月29日，self storage三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店經營有限公司發佈公告，三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店首個經營年度實現贏利，將向業主預分紅，每個標準客房預分紅11700元。而金融街惠州巽寮灣公寓項目近日也宣佈，將向業主分紅111萬元。近期旅遊地產中出現的這種新型金融模式，引發業內廣泛關注。投資度假一舉多得三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店在去年9月開業之時，便推出“股權式”旅遊度假地產新模式。即每個紅樹林度假世界都有部分客房具備可用于出售、轉讓或抵押的獨立產權，業主購買紅樹林度假世界產權酒店客房的同時，需與紅樹林國際酒店管理公司簽署委托管理協議，每年有30天的免費居住權，且可選擇全國任意紅樹林交換入住，其餘時間都由紅樹林國際酒店管理公司統一對外作為五星級酒店客房經營，年底根據酒店贏利情況享受利潤分紅。實現“一房在手，全國度假，年年分紅”。根據三亞灣紅樹林度假世界的運營簡報，該酒店去年9月開業，去年12月營業額達1700萬元，三個月即實現贏利，每個標準客房每月預分紅達300元；今年1月-12月，每個標準客房每月預分紅900元。首個經營年度標準預分紅額為11700元。而從房價來看，去年9月三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店一期售價約為2.2萬元/平米，目前房價已漲至3萬元/平米左右。今典集團董事長張寶全表示，紅樹林度假世界股權式酒店模式，有效規避了在旅遊度假區投資傳統住宅物業長期閑置的尷迷你倉，以經營性物業為本職，為投資者創造持續性的投資回報，也令土地價值增值。分紅考驗開發商的經營能力實際上，三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店年初預計有3萬元的分紅預期，然而受海南旅遊市場上半年萎縮18%-20%的影響，預期分紅降為11700元。不過，張寶全表示，一般來說，中國酒店業50%是虧損的，贏利的只有10%-20%，其他的僅持平。而三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店沒有近海的優勢，卻能在開業3個月就實現贏利，主要是依托強大的商業配套和開發商的運營能力。據瞭解，三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店配套豐富，且均為今典集團自持，如藝術匯、今日美術館、娛樂吧、陶藝吧、畫廊，打破了傳統酒店以會議會展等商務用途為主的模式，而是針對中國人的度假習慣，打造集度假、藝術、時尚、娛樂、商業、會議會展為一體的綜合體。張寶全表示，與不少旅遊地產在賣房時承諾固定回報模式不同的是，三亞灣紅樹林度假酒店是建立在經營的基礎之上，通過運營來體現項目的價值，並實現項目的保值增值。■ 延伸分紅模式或引領旅遊地產新潮流無獨有偶，金融街惠州巽寮灣公寓項目近日也宣佈，由於2012年經營狀況良好，將向業主分紅111萬元，每套房業主分紅最高每位達5000元，最低可獲1400元。中經聯盟秘書長陳雲峰表示，股權式酒店分紅模式正受到業界關注，這也預示著旅遊地產從粗放地賣房向更重視經營轉變。投資者在選擇項目時，要看開發商的品牌、運營能力，同時也要關注項目的投資回報率。新京報記者 袁曉瀾文件倉

見習記者蔡蔚雅北京時間9月5日凌晨2︰00，迷你倉新蒲崗美聯儲如期公佈了全國經濟形勢調查報告(俗稱“褐皮書”)。該報告總結了7月初至8月底美國12個地區的經濟調查狀況。報告顯示，在汽車和住房消費支出的帶領下，美國多數地區的經濟在過去兩個月中保持“溫和至適度”增長。其中8個地區呈現溫和增長，3個地區為適度增長，芝加哥地區經濟活動有所改善。從整體來看，調查結果非常正面，表明美國各地區聯儲對經濟形勢看法普遍樂觀，極大地增強了市場對美聯儲將于9月份開始縮減QE的預期。“褐皮書”指出，在接受調查的大部分地區中，消費支出普遍增長；波士頓、堪薩斯和達拉斯等部分地區的消費者開支受返校季購物大幅提振，其餘地區則呈現溫和增長態勢。消費支出的增加主要反映了與汽車和住房相關的商品需求強勁；旅遊及相關產業的活動在大部分地區呈擴大趨勢；非金融業務，包括運輸和技能服務的需求略有增加。此外，市場對農產品和自然資源產品需求強勁，預期需求還將進 一步增長。報告顯示，汽車銷量及與住房相關商品消費均呈現顯著增長。其中，美國住宅市場活動狀況在多數地區聯儲轄區以適當速度增長，非住宅地產需求在總體上也有所上升。對此，美聯儲解釋稱，由於近期市場房價和抵押貸款利率同時走高，使得此前猶豫不決的購房者也果斷出手，極大地推動了住宅房地產市場。“褐皮書”還稱，美國7月和8月製造業活動呈溫和擴張。汽車、住房和基礎建設的相關材料需求表現強勁。的確，盡管前段時間公佈的經濟數據喜憂參半，也曾有分析師一度擔心美國經濟遭遇冷空氣，有可能延緩複蘇步伐。但作為經濟先行指標的製造業採購經理人指數(PMI)近期再創高點，則表明美國經濟複蘇尚未停止，其部分數據的短暫疲軟不會阻礙整體經濟複蘇的趨勢。本周二公佈的美國8月份ISM 製造業PMI指數超預期增長升至55.7，為2011年6月份以來最高水平，再一次強化了美國經濟將在下半年加速增長的觀點。盡管前段時間美國經濟複蘇緩慢，但鑒於市場預計美國經濟增長和失業率回落的趨勢不會改變，美迷你倉出租縮將在9月份開始縮減QE的預期再度升溫。此次“褐皮書”也指出，最近兩個月多數行業和職業的招聘持穩或小幅增長。美國物價上行壓力依然疲弱，但在報告期間內價格略有上升。工資壓力仍不大，總體而言是適度的。有分析師指出，美國消費支出持續增長，房地產、汽車行業的好轉在一定程度上為就業提供了機會。從上月勞工部公佈的數據來看，美國7月份就業人數增加了16.2萬人，失業率也從6月份的7.6%下滑至7.4%。雖然8月份的失業率還未公佈，但“褐皮書”顯示的就業持穩增長或將暗示8月份失業率很可能會維持或繼續下滑。市場人士認為，如果晚些時候公佈的8月份非農就業數據符合預期，美聯儲很可能會開始縮減QE計劃。德意志銀行也曾在其分析報告中指出，如果美國8月份非農新增就業崗位超過19萬個，且失業率降至7.3%，則他們預期美聯儲將會開始削減量化寬鬆規模。有專家指出，由於“褐皮書”是美聯儲根據所屬12家地區聯儲對經濟形勢摸底後彙編而成的，是對美國近期整體經濟狀況的最好闡釋。該報告的各項內容均顯示美國經濟、就業都將持續向好，“褐皮書”作為美聯儲9月份貨幣政策決策例會的重要參考資料，不得不令市場猜測，美聯儲很可能以此份報告為標準採取放緩QE的行動。而此次“褐皮書”的發佈時間距美聯儲9月17日的貨幣政策會議僅十幾天，報告中的利好數據很可能會促使美聯儲作出縮減購債規模的決定。此外，近期公佈的歐、英、日、中等幾大經濟體的製造業PMI數據整體改善也預示著全球經濟複蘇的大潮即將到來。盡管諸如印尼、印度等部分新興經濟體數據仍顯悲觀，但最新統計數據顯示，今年8月份全球製造業PMI大力反彈0.9個百分點至51.7，已達到2011年6月份以來最大的漲幅。全球製造業的好轉將拉動整體經濟加速回暖，也有助于美國提振本國經濟複蘇的步伐。這就意味著在全球經濟複蘇的大趨勢下，美聯儲此前擔憂的“國內經濟明顯惡化”狀況不太可能出現，那麼美聯儲按照伯南克6月份發出的政策指引從本月開始縮減QE的可能性就極大地增加了。迷你倉
