Wild Card/Vacation Day 11 of 12
Only two more shopping days until I return to the final days of the City Council campaigns. Then, we'll have fun taking apart the campaigns. Any dirt yet? Any mudslinging. You know, the good stuff. Or is everyone behaving? My wife is now looking over my shoulder -- literally -- so I have to pretend that I'm just checking ball scores. See ya in two days. Here's Wild Card ... .
Bride Dies In Husband's Arms During Dance
Fellow teachers provided the wedding gown, the flowers and decorations. One of them, an ordained minister, performed the ceremony. As the minister friend put it, the wedding "was perfect for her." As for her husband, he consoles himself by reading a list of "101 Reasons Why I Love You" she gave him their first Christmas together. No. 98 is especially difficult: "You're the one I want to grow old with." .
Roberts' role as working mother
In fact she has just turned 40 and her new movie, Charlie Wilson's War, opens in the UK on 11 January. "There weren't 1004 media outlets and now it just seems like sport. The coverage of celebrities and celebrity lifestyle, it just seems like a load of crap to me. "It doesn't look fun. It just looks scary, crazy and chaotic. It's all about superficial, hollow things. You don't hear anybody talking about acting." Nonetheless if you are Julia Roberts, how you look matters. 'Nice face' When we meet on a cold, wet day in Los Angeles, she is wearing a casual, long-sleeved patterned dress, thick black tights and chunky boots. Like most movie stars she is much thinner in the flesh. Her auburn hair is loose and those famous lips highlighted with just a hint of pink gloss.

MRSA case confirmed; doctors say risk being overblown
Remain calm.That is the message from doctors and school officials following confirmed reports of a local case of drug-resistant staph infection."I think this is being blown all out of proportion," said Dr. Louis Schenfeld, a Johnstown-based infectious disease specialist.MRSA, or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, has been around since 1963, Schenfeld said. It usually is confined to a boil that should be lanced by a doctor and then usually goes away on its own."Staph is the most common form of skin infection," he said. "MRSA is the most common type of staph infection."For years, MRSA was confined to hospitals. But it began appearing in the general population during the late 1990s and is being seen more outside hospitals and nursing homes.News of a confirmed infection in a Conemaugh Township High School student brought a deluge of phone calls to the district, Superintendent Joseph DiBartola said."We kind of fielded those (calls) to let parents know what had occurred and what we were doing," DiBartola said.
