YOU THINK WE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT THIS NOW? Two men, who were recently arrested for burglary in Boynton Beach, decided to tell the cops that the stolen items found in their car belonged to another man who they had dropped off at a gas station. But the officers knew they were lying because they were discussing their alibi while they were handcuffed in the back seat of a police cruiser, despite the fact that a surveillance camera was pointed right at them. I TOLD YOU THAT’S NOT THE REMOTE! … A woman called police in Dubuque, Iowa, to report that a lady who lived with her was hitting her television set with a can of beans.
THIS OUGHT TO FOOL THEM … A fugitive from justice looked out his window and saw police staking out his home in Hayden, Idaho, so he called in a bomb threat to a nearby local elementary school to lure them away so he could escape out the back. Unfortunately for him, his phone number showed up on the school’s caller ID so the cops just went into the house and arrested him.
THE GREEN SHEET SO, IN MY MIND, IT WAS A GOOD IDEA … When a couple went on vacation, a man in a neighboring apartment building broke in, took their furniture into his unit, and replaced it with his. Alas, he left behind a traffic citation with his name on it. He told arresting officers that he felt it would be all right to make the switch, because he thought his neighbors had moved and left their furniture behind. Plus, he was drunk. WHADDAYA THINK YOU’RE DOING, PUNK!? … A young man, who broke into a home in Teesside, England, and tried to steal a television set, awakened the homeowner who happened to be a very large, former professional rugby player. The man said that, when he pinned the intruder on the floor, he got kicked in the face, so “I thought ‘right son, you’re getting a whacking.’ ”
SORRY SIR, WE WERE LOOKING FOR L-M-N-O-P, ETC. … A drunken driver, who crashed into a pole in La Crosse, Wisconsin, was ordered to recite the alphabet to test his sobriety. He said, “AB-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-G-K — I’m JUST TRYING TO GET BY gonna kill all y’all.” He was … A woman, who is divorcing arrested. her oil magnate husband, was awarded $1 billion plus a $15 million home located in Carmel - a $750,000 home in Branson, two homes in Oklahoma - one worth $800,000 and the other $4.6 million as well as a $300,000 log cabin. She is appealing, saying the settlement is “not fair,” and she should get more.

WEEK OF DECEMBER 29, 2014
Report to the People S 2014 DRAWS TO A CLOSE, we wish our Policy Brief readers a healthy and prosperous 2015. This year saw developments in several critical issues the Allegheny Institute has followed and researched for several years. City Finances: At the start of 2014 the state had in its hands a recommendation from its fiscal recovery coordinators in Pittsburgh, who have been in that role since 2004, that their work was finished and that a second overseer (the Intergovernmental Cooperation Authority, or the oversight board) could handle the coming years for the City of Pittsburgh and its finances. The newly elected Mayor disagreed and asked the state to keep the Act 47 team in place. The state agreed and a third recovery plan was crafted which recommended a property tax hike, higher parking rates, and fee revisions. Separate from Pittsburgh, the state enacted major changes to the Act 47 statute to try to prevent fiscal distress and limit the amount of time a community can be in distress. Residency Requirements: Where Pittsburgh police are permitted to live is still up in the air following the City’s appeal of a Common Pleas Court decision upholding an arbitration ruling. The arbitration ruling would permit police officers to reside within 25 air miles of Downtown Pittsburgh. Natural Gas Drilling: Pennsylvania’s Governor-elect plans to seek a five percent tax on the market value of natural gas removed from the Marcellus Shale formation per his campaign promise. The plan is to raise at least $1 billion and use the money to fund education. But as our analysis shows, at the trending price of natural gas and the current production levels from these unconventional wells, this ambitious goal will not be reached anytime soon. Furthermore, the legislation authorizing the impact fee (Act 13 of 2012) will become void and those depending on that revenue stream, state agencies, municipalities, and counties to the tune of over $200 million, will fight to be compensated, putting further strain on any severance tax revenues. Metro Area Job Performance: Employment growth in the Pittsburgh metropolitan statistical area was somewhat weaker, although still fairly good, in 2014. During the first three months, the number of jobs fell slightly, when compared to the same month in the prior year, before returning to growth through October. Construction had a solid showing for most of the year owing to Act 89 that provided a big increase in road work dollars. That strength started to wane by the fall. Manufacturing suffered yearover-year losses each month during 2014. Surprisingly, the leisure and hospitality sector had 12 month growth of at least five percent from April through September (October was just shy of five percent). In fact, the gains from this sector comprised a large portion of the overall gains to private sector employment each month. There is not enough information within the subsectors to know where these jobs are being created and these are typically not high paying jobs. Education Funding: The perennial complaints about inequitable school funding in Pennsylvania turns out to be another canard propounded by those who will benefit most from more spending. Our research shows that the state’s funding formula takes into account the revenue generating capacity of the various districts across the Commonwealth. The actual problem in the so called lack of equitable funding stems from the fact that wealthy districts can fund almost all of their far above average spending per student from a large local tax base. These richer districts get very little money from the state. For example, in 2012-2013 the Upper Merion District spent about $25,000 per student while receiving only $2,120 per student from the state and raised most of the rest from local sources. Meanwhile, the Duquesne District got $14,264 from state taxpayers and another $1,563 from the Federal government. There is little chance the Legislature can or will ever place a limit on how much districts can raise locally for schools. School Attendance: One of the disturbing discoveries of 2014 was the Institute’s reporting on the egregious attendance problem in some schools that have inexcusably poor academic achievement. Several high schools in the Pittsburgh District report attendance at 80 percent. That means students are missing an average of 36 days per school year. Chronic absenteeism is rampant in Pittsburgh’s non-magnet schools. And Pittsburgh is not alone. Can there be any surprise to learn that fewer than 30 percent of 11th graders can score proficient on Algebra 1? In some schools fewer than 10 percent are able. And what’s worse? Pittsburgh spends over $21,000 per pupil. Are those who wring their hands over equitable funding worried about the attendance problem? Why do we not hear more about this preposterous situation? Teacher Strikes: The start of the school year was delayed in the East Allegheny School District as a result of a strike that lasted well into September and reached the maximum number of days permitted by law in order for students to receive 180 days of instruction by June 15th. Our Policy Brief in support of the school board’s refusal to yield to striking teachers was widely disseminated in the district. Mass Transit Funding: The state’s enactment of an omnibus transportation bill means a substantial revenue boost for the Port Authority with an estimated net increase in operating and capital dollars of close to $600 million through the 2019 fiscal year. Taxicab Competition: Residents finally got a taste of having an alternative option to the heavily regulated and oft-complained about taxicab providers when two new ridesharing businesses entered western Pennsylvania in the winter of 2014. Though there was strong support locally, the regulation of taxicabs in Pennsylvania (not including Philadelphia) falls to the Public Utility Commission, which in November decided to use its experimental license capabilities to allow ridesharing in Allegheny County. Airport Performance: Two new carriers, one small and dedicated to regional service while the other focuses on leisure travel to Florida, have agreed to begin service at Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT). This is a positive development for the airport, but origination and destination traffic for 2014, while an improvement over the previous year, remains low. Owing to two external sources of funds, gaming money and lease money from gas drilling - over and above airport operations - PIT has been able to reduce fees it charges to airlines such as landing and ramp rates. While still higher than comparable airports, reducing fees even further should help make the airport more attractive to airlines and could help boost flight offerings and lower ticket prices—a good way to increase the number of air travelers.

THE GREEN SHEET
ASTRO forecast Aquarius Needs Reliable Sources
ARIES (MAR. 21-APR. 19): March to your own beat. Your pursuits and objectives are more than enough to keep you satisfied and content. Don’t get too involved in other people’s crises and disputes, or their problems may soon become your own. It may be time for you to take some time of and relax a little. TAURUS (APR. 20-MAY 20): Get to the real point. Skirting around an issue or trying too hard to impress may compound a problem. For the best results, be honest and forthright and let others know exactly what your intentions are. Watch your spending in the week ahead. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20): It’s all in the details. Knowing the specifics of an issue will let others know you’re on the ball and set minds at ease that the right person is handling things. You can rely on your instincts and are able to make quick decisions when necessary.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22): Sleep on it. There’s no need to rush an important decision, as waiting a little bit could produce valuable information that will allow you to make insightful choices. What may seem exciting now will be boring tomorrow so adjust yourself accordingly. LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22): You may be your own worst critic. Don’t allow doubts and inhibitions to keep you from making any progress when there’s much to be done. Past mistakes should not instill fear. Instead, there are valuable insights to be gained from the experience so pay attention. VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22): A penny saved is a penny earned. Don’t shell out your hard-earned cash on an item you’ll be bored with by next week. Focus your energies on exercising your mind, either through puzzles, deep conversations, or solving real problems.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22.): If you’re not catching any fish, you may be using the wrong type of bait. Your perceptions of what others are attracted to are slightly off. Avoid making impulsive decisions . SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21): Putting your faith in someone who’s little more than a friendly acquaintance is only asking for trouble. Steer clear of making big changes to your finances.
PAGE 3
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22DEC. 21): Enchantments wear off quickly. A physical attraction may knock you off your feet, but after a little probing you may find there isn’t much below the surface. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22JAN. 19): Stick to the subject. Others may be all be all business when it comes to a new endeavor and not be interested in small talk or pleasantries. Stay focused on key objectives .
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18): All is not as it seems. Be skeptical about what you are told, as the information you receive may be skewed to suit someone else’s agenda. Only act on what you learn from those sources which prove to be trusted and reliable.

HOLLYWOOD by; Liz Smith
CECIL B. DEMILLE - THE GREATEST FILMMAKING REDISCOVSHOWMAN ERED! “Egypt! Egypt! Always Egypt. But my Caesar is gone, my lover is dead!” That was the delicious Claudette Colbert in Cecil B. DeMille’s 1934 opulent, witty “Cleopatra.” Claudette/Cleo was reacting to the death of Julius Caesar. Her faithful handmaidens, Iras and Charimon, prevented the queen from “going to him” by intoning, helpfully, “He never loved you. It was always just the crown!” She whips them, but gets over it. Cecil B. is having a renaissance. His name has been mentioned often - and favorably - in the reviews of Ridley Scott’s “Exodus: Gods and Kings.” There is a giant coffee table book out - “Cecil B. DeMille: The Art of the Holly-
wood Epic.” This book, by Cecilia de Mille Presley and Mark Vieira, is everything DeMille’s movies were - stupendous, lavish, colorful, too much and not enough. It is packed with fabulous photos - of the great DeMille stars, mammoth sets and costume sketches - and chock full of anecdotes about the man himself. He was called “the greatest showman on earth” by the end of his incredible career. Now comes word that the UCLA Film and Television Archive will present some of C.B.’s biggest films. This series runs January 9 through February 28 at the Billy Wilder Theater in L.A. How appropriate! DeMille appeared as himself in director Wilder’s Hollywood fable “Sunset Boulevard.” Among the movies to be screened -

THE GREEN SHEET the abovementioned “Cleopatra,” “The Sign of the Cross,” “Reap the Wild Wind,” “The King of Kings,” “The Crusades,” “Madam Satan,” “The Greatest Show on Earth” Betty Hutton on the trapeze and giving her most appealing performance - and, but of course, “The Ten Commandments.” It is odd that DeMille’s “Samson and Delilah” is not being screened. It contains a great moment after Delilah gorgeous Hedy Lamarr - has shorn Samson - a voluptuous Victor Mature - of his magical locks. Strutting up to the chained Mature, surrounded by the Philistines, Lamarr explains her terrible betrayal: “Nobody leaves Delilah.” Then she sashays out. They just don’t make ‘em like that anymore - movies or movie stars like Miss Lamarr. DOLLY PARTON has racked up - pun intended -another triumph in a career that has spanned fortysomething years. Her overseas tour was a smash and she now has another platinum album to her credit. Her CD, “Blue Smoke,” mixes some of her great hits with new compositions. Dolly, whose voice retains the clarity of country spring water, has sold, worldwide, over 100 million records. “DID CHARLES Chaplin cancel “The Great Dictator” to appease Hitler? I’ve received a number of notes from folks asking this question, and I’ve heard Chaplin’s 1940 satire mentioned endlessly, as an example of why Sony Pictures got it all wrong in stopping the release of “The Interview.” Chaplin plays a thinly disguised version of Hitler, two years before the U.S. entered World War II.
Good grief, people! I detest censorship and I am greatly appalled by the deadening political correctness that abounds - let’s destroy the career of somebody who used a bad word 20 years ago ... let’s sue the bakery that won’t make our gay wedding cake ... let’s force false apologies from people whose attitudes are only hardened in the face of public shaming. There’s a lot in the popular culture I find in poor taste, but I support the right of everybody to wallow wherever they want. There’s a cover for every garbage can. But I cannot say that they could have gone any other way, given the threats to life and limb in U.S. theaters, all over an absurd comedy. This is a watershed moment. Isn’t it only a matter of time before America is cyber-attacked and hacked for REAL? Let’s spend billions on improving our system and protecting our country, rather than concentrating on a lot of empty hand-wringing over “free speech,” about a movie whose concept was just asking for trouble. I suppose if somebody had set off a bomb or run amok with a gun, many of you so offended by Sony’s action - and my comments in this column - would feel the deaths of those strangers were worth it, just so long as both Seth Rogen and James Franco didn’t have their “art” compromised? P.S. Some of the notes I have received recently, asking if I am “aware” of “The Great Dictator” also contain adjectives concerning my patriotism and intelligence. “Jerk” is the only one I can really print in a family column. But I love these readers, too. We all have and are entitled to our opinions.

ARK WAS WALKING DOWN the street when he was accosted by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless man who asked him for a couple of dollars for
dinner. Mark took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some beer with it instead of dinner?" "No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless man replied. "Will you use it to go fishing instead of buying food?" Mark asked. "No, I don't waste time fishing. I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive." "Will you spend this on deer corn to hunt deer instead of food?" Mark asked. "Are you NUTS? I haven't hunted in 20 years!" "Well," said Mark, "I'm not going to give you money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a shower and a terrific dinner cooked by my wife." The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be furious with you for doing that?" Mark replied, "That's okay. It's important for her to see what a man looks like after he’s given up drinking, fishing, and hunting!" and as they say in Looney Tune Land, tha's all folks!

GREEN
AST WEEK, FORMER FLORIDA GOVERNOR Jeb Bush announced his intention to "actively explore" a run for president. That announcement spurred spasms of joy in some segments of the Republican Party who have been itching for an effective counter to the enthusiasm of the grassroots right. Those Republicans -- largely coastal donors who scorn social conservatives as rubes, and shun the supposed fiscal extremism of the tea party -- have been searching for a candidate who will buck the base on immigration, who doesn't mind hand-in-glove corporatism, and who, most of all, feels the same way they do about the grassroots. And Jeb Bush promises to fulfill all these criteria. He says he feels "a little out of step with my party" on immigration and recently said that illegal immigration wasn't a "felony" but an "act of love"; his support for Common Core has more than a whiff of cronyism to it; just weeks ago, he told The Wall Street Journal that he would be willing to "lose the primary to win the general without violating [his] principles." This is the dirty secret of the modern Republican Party: For all the talk about grassroots exasperation with the Republican elites, it is the Republican elites who despise the grassroots. Republican elites do not believe in the dismantling of the welfare state; they believe in its maintenance. They do not believe in the unsophisticated free marketeering of the tea party; they believe in a strong government hand on the economic tiller, so long as that hand is benevolent toward their friends. They do not believe in small government; they believe in large government that serves their ends. If given the choice, a few would even select Hillary Clinton as president over Texas Senator Ted Cruz. They stake their claim to leadership of the Republican Party on the nonsensical notion that they have a record of victory. Pointing to the dramatic implosions of candidates like Delaware's Christine O'Donnell, who primaried Mike Castle only to be blown out by Chris Coons in her Senatorial race, and Sharron Angle, who lost to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, establishment Republicans state that they -- and only they -- know how to win elections. They abide by "The Price Is Right" strategy for electoral victory: campaign just to the right of the Democratic candidate in the hopes that you will win everyone to that candidate's right. The magical middle, in this view, is where victory lies. And so, in 2008, in an election in which Americans resonated to the theme of war weariness, Republicans establishment geniuses touted a Senator most famous for his foreign policy interventionism. In 2012, coming off an election in which Republicans won a stunning victory thanks to popular hatred of Obamacare, Republicans ran the only man in America outside of Barack Obama to implement Obamacare. Grassroots conservatives reluctantly went along with these nominees after failing to unify around an alternative. Now, in 2016, when Americans have reacted with outrage to President Obama's executive amnesty, and when Hillary Clinton is likely to be the Democratic nominee, establishment Republicans want to run a man whose most famous position is warmth for illegal immigration and is famously chummy with the Clintons (he gave Hillary an award in 2013 for public service). Why nominate this man? The most common explanation: His widely perceived alternative, grassroots favorite, Ted Cruz, cannot win. Cruz, establishment Republicans say, polarizes instead of unifying; he alienates rather than attracting. But that notion springs, once again, from "The Price Is Right" strategy: If the middle voter is your target, Cruz isn't your man. But the middle voter was Mitt Romney's target in 2012, and he got him -- Romney won independents 50-45, but lost the election by five million votes. The middle voter was John McCain's target, too -- so much so that McCain considered naming Democratic Senator Joe Lieberman as his running mate. He lost decisively, too. Will Ted Cruz lose more decisively than either of his predecessors? That's a possibility. But margin of loss is significantly less important than the direction of the political narrative. Party insiders see the 1964 nomination of right-wing Barry Goldwater as a massive defeat. Those outside the party infrastructure see it for what it was: a ground shift in Republican politics that led to the rise of Ronald Reagan. Better to nominate someone who will change the conversation and lose than someone who will reinforce that the parties stand for the same tired politics of failure. Or, perhaps, Cruz doesn't lose at all. Perhaps it turns out that voters are driven by vision and passion rather than bromides from the Yorks and Lancasters of American politics. Perhaps Ted Cruz, or someone like him, actually animates people rather than treating them like widgets to be manipulated by those born to the purple. Perhaps politics isn't "The Price Is Right."

Reader Expresses The True
MEANING OF CHRISTMAS THE GREEN SHEET 404 NORTH AVENUE, MILLVALE PA, 15209 DEAR EDITOR: Alas! Christmas is finally over. Shoved down our throats since Halloween, the season is a buy, buy, gift, buy season. Non-stop on TV, radio, web ad nausaum. Then comes the many who deplore anything to do with the real reason for the season, being the birth of Christ. There are the agnostics, there is the Detroit chapter of the Satanic Temple that put up a Snaketivity Scene. The group's argument is that the holiday season is celebrated in many different ways. Au contraire, the season is Christmas. Christmas, the birth of Christ. Any other similarity is truly
false. Why pick the very day Christians celebrate the birth of Christ? If you need a holiday of your own, make it at another time. Then maybe we Christians can step on your toes just as you feel you can step on ours! The erection of the manger is a welcome scene right here in Millvale. I am noticing more and more people - yes, even on TV saying,"Merry Christmas." I am glad Christmas is finally over -- not because of the true meaning of it, but rather all the bad publicity that follows, the unending commercials, and the stress those commercials cause. I think we should all just slow down and celebrate the Birth of Christ. Nothing else. MARIAN M. Shaler

In-Law Relationship Might Never Be Friendship By Amy Dickinson
DEAR AMY: My husband is the youngest of three brothers, and we were married last of the bunch. My older sisters-in-law have become close friends over the years. They have a lot in common -- both are teachers (I work in finance), both are of Swedish decent (I'm Greek), and both have two sons (I have three daughters). We all live in different parts of the country, but spend Christmas in our husbands' hometown. I have tried very hard over the years not to feel like the third wheel, but it's hard when they have so much in common and I can't relate to many of their conversations. I have tried to connect with them individually between Christmases, but I'm always the initiator -- they never reach out to me. I know they maintain close contact with one another, but I rarely hear from them. I hesitate to bring up that I'm feeling left out because I want them to be in a relationship with me by choice, not make the effort out of obligation. Also, once when I indicated that I felt a bit left out, one of them got very offended and I felt I had to apologize for feeling that way. How can I be fair to them (not force them to read my mind), not come off as whiny or needy, and still form a genuine connection with them when there doesn't seem to be room for me? -- Third Wheel Sister DEAR THIRD WHEEL: Your narrative gives every justification for these women to be closer to one another than to you -- primarily, aside from all they have in common, they have known one another longer. I think you are putting a lot of pressure on this relationship by insisting it be a friendship. The fact is that you are all in-laws. The main thing you have in common with these two women is the fact that you are married to brothers. If they aren't deliberately excluding you, and if your three in-laws are amiable enough when you are together, that might be the best you can do -- and that's a lot! Almost any group of three is going to form a triangle, with two points closer to one another. Can you enjoy their company, knowing that at least some of the time, you are going to be an audience to their friendship? Can you be secure enough to accept this (or -- can you fake it)? Don't contact them unless you want to, not because you are hoping for a particular response from them. If you relax into this, you will enjoy the relationship (and perhaps their relationship) more. DEAR AMY: My best friend and I are like brothers. We tell each other everything and are always honest. A couple of days ago, I found out that he was in a relationship with another man for six months. I was suspicious that he was gay and I asked him about it. He said no and I believed him. I told him I didn't care if he was gay, straight, or bi. He is my best friend no matter what. I've had many friendships end because people weren't trustworthy. I don't know if I should confront him with my disappointment. I don't know if I should tell him that I have also been involved with both men and women. I don't want to jeopardize a great friendship, but what should I do? -- Blood Brother DEAR BROTHER: Evidently you two don't actually tell one another everything -- and withholding information is actually more brotherly than you might think. You have both been concealing the truth about your sexual preferences and behavior. You should confess rather than confront. Your honesty should inspire him to also be honest.
THE GREEN SHEET STARTING THIS WEEK: THE EQUALIZER: The name is the same, but Denzel Washington gives a major update to Robert McCall - the ex-CIA man in a 1980s CBS series in this effective action tale that reunites Washington with Antoine Fuqua. McCall puts the tricks of his old trade back in play as he avenges the mistreatment of a young friend - Chloe Grace Moretz by Russian mobsters who forced her into prostitution. The fact that McCall now works in a hardware store increases the weapons he has on hand. STEPHEN KING’S A GOOD MARRIAGE: King adapts his own short story as Joan Allen and Anthony LaPaglia play the partners in a long, presumably strong union but the relationship soon goes south, quickly and dangerously, when the wife discovers the secret her mate has long kept. Stephen Lang and Kristen Connolly also star.

BANSHEE: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON: Matters are unsettled in the title Pennsylvania town in this round of the drama series. The thief Carrie Hopewell has to decide where to place her loyalty - with her now-estranged family or with her former colleague and ex-beau, as the battle for power in Banshee continues. GRAVITY: Alfonso Cuaron’s nail-biter strands astronauts, Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, in space after debris from a satellite strikes their shuttle. Technically excellent, Bullock’s emotional and affecting performance is equally key to the picture’s success.

ENCOUNTERS Stories From Down Under By: cam.sha@bigpond.com
BEING A GHOST TOURS operator and investigator for many years now, I have had many scary experiences but the strangest so far happened,
not
in
some
dark
abandoned gaol, but in my own home. It happened about 5 years ago now. I was sitting reading a magazine in the family room by myself. Everything was as normal, TV giving me some background company, kids in their rooms and hubby doing whatever hubbys do. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw movement. I looked up and saw it was my husband going into my stepson’s room. Nothing weird about that, so I looked down again and continued reading my magazine. Just as I started to read again, my stepson came out of his room. I looked up and said to him, "What’s dad doing in your room?" "Dad’s not in my room," was his reply! As he saw my look of puzzlement I explained to him what I had seen. Just then my husband came in the front door!! He had been outside the entire time having a cigarette!! I have no explanation for this. I clearly saw my husband as he reached to open my stepson’s room door. He had the same clothing on, same hair, same everything! About 2 months after this I was in my son’s room folding clothes. My son was 8 years old at the time of the experience I am about to tell you. He and his sister, 10 at the time, were out in the backyard
BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL: Rick’s announcement sent shockwaves through the Forrester staff. Still feeling love for Rick despite having been conned by him for weeks, Caroline persisted in wanting to rebuild their marriage, but Rick’s cutting reply showed his dedication to Maya. Caroline then called Rick out on what she believes is his real reason for being in a relationship with Maya. Having thrown his support behind Rick, much to Ridge’s dismay, Eric left town, giving Rick a clear field to run the company. Rick upped the ante with his opponents by giving Maya an extravagant gift at the Forrester mansion. DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Nicole put extra effort into avoiding Serena and concentrated on building a relationship with Daniel, but was distracted by a phone call. After Hope learned from Kayla that Aiden threatened Bree, he came up with an explanation for his actions - but was it true? As Sonny approached Paul’s hotel room, it looked like Paul and Will were about to kiss, and Sonny got a surprise when he walked in. Theresa had an upsetting reaction when she picked up a baby rattle, and was offered emotional support by Melanie, of all people. Rafe accused Chad of sending the letter that got him fired. EMPIRE: On the series premiere, Lucious Lyon, who has run a powerful music empire for decades without question, found out he has a serious illness and will now need to choose a successor. Lucious

looked at the strengths and weaknesses of his sons Andre, Jamal and Hakeem to judge who would be the best suited to take over his company. What Lyon didn’t anticipate was the arrival of Cookie, his ex-wife and the mother of his sons, who had just gotten out of prison after many years and was determined to claim her own fair share. GENERAL HOSPITAL: Following a tense encounter with Bobbie about someone from their past, “Fluke” gave Carlos a new assignment to remove a real problem, but Carlos wouldn’t go through with it. An angry “Fluke” then updated Helena about their latest concerns. Sonny was distressed to learn about Johnny’s plan for the mob. Bobbie took Michael to her old home, which he will be turning into a clinic, and accidentally revealed a family secret. Jake opened up to Carly about his memory flashes. Tracy accused Ned of having feelings for both Olivia and Alexis. Preparing herself to be sent to Pentonville, Ava named her baby girl. JANE THE VIRGIN: On a rebroadcast, Jane was overwhelmed by all the wedding plans, but was even more distracted by the realization that she has feelings for Rafael. Making an extremely bad de-

window so he showed off a few more tricks even getting a couple of waves from Dad for his efforts. They both then decided to come in, Dad was still at the window as they turned the corner to come in the backdoor. My son went straight to the kitchen for a drink and chat to Dad wanting to hear what he thought of his tricks. Dad wasn’t there. He then called for him and came to his bedroom where I was still doing his clothes. He asked me where Dad was. I then informed him Dad was in bed as he had a late shift. He was so disbelieving that I had to take him to our room, at the other end of the house, and show him Dad was very much sound asleep, snoring and all! Neither my husband nor I can explain these incidents and I would very much love to hear from anyone who can. We even thought maybe it was my husband's Dad making a ghostly appearance but that doesn’t explain the same clothes etc. when I saw him. We never told any of the children about my experience so as not to scare them. We have also experienced a few other strange occurrences in this house but these two are the weirdest. ©theshadowlands.net

cision, Jane blurted out her attraction to Rafael during premarital counseling in front of Michael and her priest. The appearance of someone from their past created complications for Rafael and Petra. Rogelio soon learned about the nuptials and pressed Xiomara to let him be a part of his daughter’s wedding. THE ORIGINALS: When Klaus demanded that Esther release Elijah, she revealed several dark secrets from Klaus’ past to keep him at bay.

Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer were more convinced than ever that Alison had something to do with Mona’s death, and put all their energy into searching for evidence that would confirm Ali’s guilt. However, Alison claimed that she’s innocent and produced a seemingly airtight alibi that pushed the

Liars into entering more dangerous realms. Emily and Paige reached a crossroads in their relationship. Aria began to worry about her future. REVENGE: With Victoria still sunk in grief over the loss of Daniel, David realized it was time to settle his debt to her, and took off in search of his mortal enemy. Malcolm Black was equally bent on avenging the loss of his child and blamed David, guaranteeing that at least one man wouldn’t survive their last encounter. Emily showed that she’s still Nolan’s best buddy by helping him make his own takedown. Coming: Life in the Hamptons is permanently changed. SWITCHED AT BIRTH: On the season four premiere, Bay faced the judge and took the punishment for Daphne’s misdeeds. With Emmett and Daphne heading to college, Bay soon found that taking the blame for another was harder than she anticipated. At the same time, Daphne struggled to adapt to being a pre-med student while feeling guilt-ridden over letting Bay pay for her actions. The Kennishes were very unhappy about Bay’s decision but powerless to stop it, while Regina was distressed over living in an empty nest. YOUNG AND RESTLESS: Phyllis pressed Billy for information about Kelly. Summer and Mariah traded words, leading Summer to tell Mariah about Kevin’s past. Meanwhile, Kevin had a mysterious box in hand when he arrived for work late at the police station. Avery questioned Nick’s reason for fighting for full custody of Faith. When Nick ran into Mariah at Cassie’s grave, he learned that she never celebrated her birthday as a child. Dylan convinced Avery to call Joe and find out who owns the property in the warehouse district. Lauren and Michael sought a second opinion from oncologist Dr. Jain.

Factors To Consider Before
SELLING YOUR HOME offer can be stressful, especially for those homeowners who have already found their next homes. Because so much tends to be riding on the decision of whether or not to sell a home, homeowners would be wise to consider the following factors before putting that "For Sale" sign in their front yards. · Motivation: Many homeowners sell their homes because their families are growing and they have outgrown their current residences. Others may recognize a seller's real estate market and want to strike while the iron is hot, while still others might be moving for a new job. The factors that motivate
homeowners to sell their homes vary with each individual case, but prospective sellers should keep in mind that moving can be expensive, and finding a new home may not be so easy, nor is the grass necessarily greener on the other side. When deciding if now is the best time to sell your home, make sure you will be selling for the right reason. That can make the often trying process of selling a home a lot easier to handle. · Market: The local real estate market is another factor to consider when deciding whether or not to sell your home. A home is a significant investment, and you want to earn as substantial a return

on that investment as possible. Selling when the market is struggling will make your investment less valuable. Research recently sold homes in your neighborhood to get an idea of how much you can expect to get if you sold your home in the current market. It might be worth it to sell now, or it might pay off to be patient and wait until the market rebounds. · Kids: Selling your home will impact your family just like it will impact your bottom line. Unless you plan to move down the street or to another home in your community, selling may mean you and your family no longer see your friends and neighbors. That can be a difficult adjustment, especially for schoolaged kids who will have to adjust to a new school. The potentially negative impact that selling can have on your children may not be worth the financial benefits of selling, so the decision of whether or not to sell should not be taken lightly by homeowners who also happen to be parents. · Quality of life: It can be difficult to turn down an opportunity to make a lot of money on your real estate investment. But if you plan to sell and move further away from your office and your friends and family, the financial windfall you earn when selling your home may not be worth the sacrifices you have to make in order to earn that money. Studies have shown that longer commutes can elevate stress levels, and even the most affordable property may not be worth moving to if you won't be able to enjoy the home with your friends and family.

Things to Look For When
BUYING YOUR DREAM HOME A DREAM HOME means different things to different people. While preferences may vary, there are a few things buyers prefer when shopping for the home of their dreams. * Agreeable weather. Vacation home shoppers prefer year-round warm weather so they know their respite from the cold is never too far away. For example, a locale such as Port St. Lucie, Florida boasts an average temperature of 73.7 F, providing the ideal getaway to snowbound men and women.
* Affordability. A dream home stays a dream for many people because of the misconception that it is beyond their financial reach. "While a seaside villa in Italy might never be a reality, there are places where it is still affordable to own and maintain a vacation home," says Andrew Nadalin, President of Pace 2000 Inc. Compared to neighboring counties, St. Lucie County and Martin County represent the piece of South Florida that is still considered affordable. Both St. Lucie and Martin counties
also offer and affordable costof-living vacationers will appreciate. * Accessibility of activities. While an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life is great, no one wants to escape to a place with nothing to do. When shopping for a place to buy or build your dream getaway, be sure there's plenty of accessibility to popular activities. * Proximity to other hotspots. Even if you're looking for a place to simply unwind, a home's proximity to hotspots or other exotic locales never hurts. Port St. Lucie, for example, offers all a vacationer needs to relax and unwind, and it's only 90 miles from the Bahamas by boat.

CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, adopting a healthy lifestyle is not a difficult undertaking. In certain instances, convenience may need to be sacrificed in favor of nutrition, but many people find that living healthy is not nearly as difficult as they assumed it would be when they initially decided to make a change. When men and women decide they want to start living healthier, many mistakenly assume they must abandon their existing habits entirely and start from scratch. But the following are some easy ways to start living healthier every day. · Eat more fruits and vegetables. One of the best and easiest ways to live healthier is to begin eating more fruits and vegetables. Instead of unhealthy snacks like potato chips and cookies, snack on a piece of fruit, and never sit down to a meal unless you include some vegetables to go along with the main course. Studies have shown that men
and women whose diets are high in fruits and vegetables are less likely to develop certain types of cancers, including cancers of the digestive tract. In addition, the U.S. Department of Agriculture notes that people whose diets are rich in fruits and vegetables have a lower risk for heart disease, including heart attack and stroke. · Slow down your eating routine. Some people may already be eating the right foods, but they may just be eating too much of them. It takes time for your body to let you know it's had too much to eat, so eating too fast can increase your risk of overeating. While eating, try to limit distractions that can take your attention away from how much you're eating. If you're always watching television or checking emails on your phone while eating, try a few days of distractionfree, careful eating, and you may find yourself eating less and feeling more energized.

HEALTH FAIR
PREVENTION Easy Ways to Start Living Healthier
· Skip the second glass of wine. The much publicized medical benefits of wine are misleading. According to the Mayo Clinic, when consumed in moderation, red wine can help prevent heart disease. That's because alcohol and antioxidants found in red wine have been shown to increase levels of high-density lipoprotein, often referred to as good cholesterol, and protect against artery damage. But wine also contains sugars that can fatten the liver, and a fatty liver can contribute to a host of serious health problems. If you already drink wine, limit yourself to one glass per day. If you are not a wine drinker, then it's important to note that many doctors believe the potential
benefits of drinking wine do not outweigh the potentially negative consequences associated with alcohol consumption. · Get more sleep. Inadequate sleep affects the body in a variety of ways. Many people are aware that one poor night's sleep is certain to af-
fect their energy levels the following day, but fewer may know of the link between sleep duration and chronic disease. For example, the Harvard Medical School notes that studies have linked insufficient sleep to type 2 diabetes, as the body's ability to process glucose can be compromised by poor sleeping habits. Other medical conditions that have been linked to insufficient sleep include obe-

sity, heart disease and mood disorders. While you might be proud of your ability to function on minimal sleep, the long-term effects of insufficient sleep can be dire, so be sure to get at least seven hours of sleep each night. Choosing to live healthier doesn’t mean you need to change everything about your lifestyle. You can make several easy everyday changes to improve your overall health.

being considered before application. You also can mix and match insulations depending on the application. The U.S. Department of Energy offers these additional tips with regard to insulation. * Consider factors such as your climate, home design and budget when selecting insulation for your home. * Use higher R-Value insulation, such as spray foam, on exterior walls and in cathedral ceilings to get more insulation with less thickness. * Install attic air barriers, such as wind baffles, along the entire attic eave to help ensure proper airflow from the soffit to the attic. Ventilation helps with moisture control and reduces summer cooling bills, but don't ventilate your attic if you have insulation on the underside of the roof. Ask a qualified contractor for recommendations. * Be careful how close you place insulation next to a recessed light fixture -- unless it is insulation contact (IC) rated -- to avoid a fire hazard. * Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions, and wear the proper protective gear when installing insulation. If you’re unsure, hire a professional. In addition to making a home more comfortable, insulation also can buffer noise, making the home much more peaceful. Insulation can reduce noises from outside the home as well as absorb sounds from inside.

attic. If you cannot see any of the floor joists because the insulation is well above them, you probably have enough and adding more may not be cost-effective. In addition, check to see if the insulation is an even thickness across the entire attic. Sometimes it can be thicker in the middle and then peter out toward the eaves. Attic insulation is measured according to its R-Value, which measures the insulation's ability to resist heat flow. The higher the R-Value, the better the thermal performance of the insulation. In many climates, the recommended level for homes is R38. If you prefer more insulation, increase the RValue. Insulation is made from different materials, including fiberglass, cellulose and rock wool. It comes in different forms. Rolls and batts are some of the more commonly used types of insulation. Loose-fill insulation is a loose insulation with no backing that is usually blown into a space. Rigid foam and foamin-place insulation are additional types of insulation. The type of insulation used depends on where the insulation is needed and your budget. Certain materials are not applicable for particular uses, and typically insulation that provides a higher R-Value tends to be more expensive. Examine the cost-effectiveness of the type of insulation

That's especially important come late fall and winter, when homeowners typically shut their windows and keep them shut until spring, making it difficult for fresh air to enter a home.

But sunlight is increasingly scarce as fall turns into winter, and rooms that do not boast too many colorful accents can quickly grow drab as summertime sunlight dwindles.

form a room from somewhere to spend time into a sight to behold. * Paper the walls. While many of today's homeowners prefer paint to wallpaper, those who want a less permanent solution to brighten up their homes may want to consider removable wallpaper. Such paper is less expensive than traditional wallpaper, and many do-it-yourselfers find removable wallpaper is easy to both install and remove. Choose a colorful pattern that can turn an otherwise plain wall into a potent palette that adds some life to your home's interior. Because removable wallpaper does not require a significant financial investment, you can experiment with various colors or change things up each month if you so desire. * Add some artwork. Another way to add color to the walls inside your home without dusting off your paintbrush is to hang some colorful artwork. Paintings that feature bold colors tend to draw your immediate attention when you enter a
room, and that quality can make you forget the room is not benefitting from natural light. If you want to go the extra mile, find a painting that features colors which match throw pillows or other accessories in the room. This way your walls and your accessories are working in concert to make a room more colorful. * Rug it out. A patterned throw rug is another accessory that can brighten a room without much effort or financial investment. When choosing a throw rug, find one that's colorful but does not clash considerably with existing furnishings, as you don't want the rug to draw attention for all the wrong reasons. You have more freedom with regard to rugs if you're furnishing an empty room, as you can choose whichever rug you like and then choose furnishings. Homes tend to darken as late fall turns into winter. But homeowners can brighten their homes in various ways, even if they prefer not to paint.

"Concrete is a major solution for weather extremes, and for more than a decade now, the building system using ICFs (insulated concrete forms) has proven to deliver the most durable building frame." The ICF principle is simple, Blyth says. The walls are constructed with pre-assembled, interlocking units, so they're easily transported to any building site. Each form consists of two panels of thick foam connected with a patented web system. Guided by the architectural design and beauty aspects you request, the ICFs are stacked, steel reinforced, and filled with concrete until the entire building envelope is complete. Here's a snapshot of additional building benefits: Disaster-resilient: ICF walls withstand winds of up to 402 kilometers per hour and give you a fire protection rating as long as four hours. Energy efficiency: Premium insulation delivers an energyefficiency rating as high as R-
50 due to the thermal mass of the concrete that equates to reducing household energy bills by as much as 70 percent. And if optional inserts are added to the ICF forms, this efficiency is improved even more. Occupant comfort: Outside cold can easily travel through the typical wood-framed wall, causing uneven temperatures inside your home. However, the monolithic ICF wall eliminates drafts and cold spots and it is an effective sound barrier, filtering out unwanted noise. Green living: Concrete is a sustainable material; the system uses only recycled polymers and steel; the building process creates much less waste than traditional methods. Short- and long-term value: A concrete home is built to last and retain its value longer. In the short-term, the superior durability of concrete walls require less maintenance, repair and money to maintain than wood structures.

Preventing and Treating
FROZEN WATER PIPES FROZEN WATER PIPES and leaks can quickly lead to disaster. Water damage can result in costly repairs, some of which may not be covered by home insurance policies. Preventing frozen pipes and leaks is essential once the mercury starts to dip. Water expands when it freezes, and if it expands enough, it can cause pipes to burst. Yet, burst pipes do not usually occur directly where the ice is forming. Rather, the ice increases water pressure buildup elsewhere in the pipe, typically between the faucet or spigot and the ice blockage. Therefore, adequately protecting the entire length of pipe during cold spells can be necessary.
Any home built in colder climates should have its pipes located on the inside of building insulation. However, pipes in crawl spaces, attics and basements, as well as those located on outside walls, are vulnerable to freezing. To prevent frozen pipes and bursting, follow these tips. · Drain water from outdoor hoses and close inside valves supplying water to outdoor faucets. Keep the external hose bib open to let water drain and to allow for expansion should any water become trapped. · Inspect pipes in areas that are unheated. Insulate any pipes located in these areas. · Heat tape, pipe sleeves, heat cables, and similar ma-
terials can be used to protect exposed water pipes from freezing. · Keep garage doors closed when water supply lines are located in the garage. · Open cabinets indoors to allow heat to reach pipes underneath sinks. · Seal leaks that allow cold air inside. Also, look for air leaks around electrical wiring and vents. · If you will be away from home, keep the thermostat set to no lower than 55 F (12 C). · Keep water trickling out of a faucet when temperatures are very cold. This will relieve pressure inside of the pipe. · If you suspect a pipe has frozen, warm air from a hair dryer can help thaw it out. Never try to thaw a pipe with an open flame. · If a pipe bursts, turn off the water from the main shutoff valve.
