Casino developer chooses Delphi

Monday, January 18, 2010 4:59 PM

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

The developer of a Columbus casino apparently has settled on the former Delphi auto-parts plant on W. Broad Street as its choice for the development.

An announcement is planned Tuesday morning.

Penn National Gaming Inc. officials could not be reached today, but sources said they have settled on the Delphi site as the best alternative to the Arena District location listed in the constitutional amendment approved by Ohio voters in November.

Penn National purchased the Arena District site last week, but company officials said they were still considering alternatives in light of local opposition to that location. Changing the Columbus location - the Cleveland, Cincinnati and Toledo casino sites in the constitution have caused no controversy - will require another change to Ohio's constitution.

Three-fifths of state lawmakers must approve an amendment by the end of business Feb. 3 in order to place a proposal on the May primary ballot. A majority of Ohio voters then must approve the amendment on May 4.

Penn National officially considered seven alternate sites - including Delphi and the nearby Westland Mall - that were suggested by Mayor Michael B. Coleman, neighborhood groups and property owners. But company officials had said they were inundated with potential casino locations offered up across a city and county that rejected Ohio's pro-gambling ballot measure last fall.

Groups in the W. Broad Street area have voted to support locating a casino development there, but several votes have been split narrowly in favor.

The Delphi and Westland sites are in Franklin Township, but company and city officials have said they want the casino inside Columbus boundaries. That means Columbus likely would annex one of those properties if selected by Penn National.

Franklin Township trustees, in voting 2-1 to endorse a casino last week, said their support was contingent on a revenue-sharing deal.

Coleman aides have said the mayor wouldn't support moving the casino to any Columbus neighborhood that didn't want it. He and City Council President Michael C. Mentel opposed the Arena District site.

Mike Curtin, associate publisher emeritus of The Dispatch, is a co-chairman of the community group Stand Up Columbus, which was created to push Penn National to relocate the casino. Capitol Square, the real-estate arm of The Dispatch Printing Company, owns 20 percent of the Arena District development.

CarMax to hire 600 nationally

It's getting ready for spring-summer car-buying season

Friday, January 22, 2010 12:21 PM

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Car dealership chain CarMax says it plans to hire about 600 people for its stores across the country.

CEO Tom Folliard says the positions are part of the company's usual hiring each year to prepare for the spring and summer car buying season.

The company, based in Richmond, says a majority of the full- and part-time positions are in sales, with other openings in service operations, business offices and purchasing.

CarMax Inc. operates 100 stores that predominantly sell used vehicles. It has about 13,000 employees, so the hiring plans would boost that total by 4.6 percent.

Pharmacies are so eager for your business, they're giving away the drugs!

A free-prescription program in Michigan expects to go nationwide by this summer, according to the Detroit News.

The concept is so simple that it falls under the "Why didn't we think of that?" category. It also helps two parties in need: consumers who cannot afford medicine and the recession-battered drug chains.

Consumers sign up by clicking on the "FREE" box at medtipster.com for a chance to be randomly drawn for free generic prescriptions at the 14 pharmacies involved in the program. (Among those participating in Michigan are Kroger, Target, Spartan and Wal-Mart.)

Everybody wins. Consumers feel better at no cost. And when they visit the pharmacy to pick up the drugs, the stores get more traffic (Epsom salts and aftershave, anyone?), plus more opportunities to cultivate repeat shoppers.

"We're all bargain hunters in today's economy," Chris Haack, a senior analyst at Mintel told the newspaper. "People want to feel like they're getting a deal, and they've basically come to expect sales. It's up to merchandisers to create marketing specials that meet bottom lines, while making shoppers think they're stealing away with a great find."

The Michigan pilot program began Dec. 1 and will end Jan. 31, the Detroit News said. Jason A. Klein, president of Troy, Mich.-based Medtipster LLC, told the paper he plans to expand around the country by summer.

Klein began Medtipster's service by accident. The site's original function was to serve as a health care search engine that hunts for drug bargains, not marketing drives that offer drugs gratis. When Klein wrote a blog item about the trend toward free prescriptions from stores such as Meijer Inc., he exclaimed, "We're all in!" Mistaken consumers thought he meant all pharmacies were in on the deal, so people inundated his in-box with 14,480 emails, the story said, asking how they could get free prescriptions. Instead of apologizing for the misunderstanding, Klein began to call the prominent chains to see if they would like new business in exchange for giving away prescriptions. They replied with a resounding yes.

"The success of our business is being driven by what started as a crippling error," Klein told the newspaper.

TRW will close Mount Vernon plant by June

100 of facility's 180 workers already have been laid off

Tuesday, January 19, 2010 3:14 PM

By Dan Gearino

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

TRW Automotive, a maker of auto parts, plans to close its plant in Mount Vernon by June, leading to the loss of about 180 jobs. About 100 of those workers already have been laid off.

The company, based in Livonia, Mich., confirmed the decision today, which had already been announced to employees.

"Basically, the plant is well under capacity," said spokesman John Wilkerson.

The plant's main product is braking components for cars and trucks. Its main customers have been Ford, General Motors and Chrysler, all of which suffered through a deep sales slump last year.

About 80 workers are currently at the plant. The employees are represented by the United Auto Workers union.

The Mount Vernon plant is operated by the Kelsey-Hayes Co., which is a subsidiary of TRW. TRW has about 64,000 workers at plants worldwide, including several other locations in Ohio. The largest remaining plant in Ohio is in Fayette, near Toledo, with about 140 employees.

Today's political news

Ohio drivers have been stung by more than 300,000 fines for missing deadlines to renew their driver's licenses and vehicle registrations since the $20 penalties went into effect in October.

About one in six drivers renewing licenses and one in 10 renewing registrations were hit with the fine in October, November and December, according to statistics released yesterday by the state Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

The fines, which were slipped into the state transportation budget last spring, have yielded more than $6.4 million in new revenue for the State Highway Patrol while further aggravating tax-weary drivers.

"Keeping the patrol funded is very important," state Sen. J. Kirk Schuring, R-Canton, said yesterday. "How we do it is also very important. Playing a game of 'gotcha' with motorists is not the right way to go."

Since Oct. 1, drivers more than seven days late on a renewal have been assessed a $20 fee. The penalty was part of a series of new and higher fees that lawmakers stuffed into the two-year, $9.6 billion transportation budget, largely to replace gas-tax revenue that previously had been a major funding source for the patrol.

Lawmakers also increased the fees for vanity license plates, temporary tags and vision screenings.

But the late fees appear to be causing the most consternation.

"It's a clever government scam -- a disguised tax," said Mark Jeffers, a computer-security specialist from Dayton who paid the fine and complained about it on an online message board.

"It's easy for them to defend 'Well, you wouldn't have to pay it if you registered your car on time.' Disgusting."

The Ohio Insurance Institute issued an advisory this week after hearing from aggrieved drivers.

"This means that if you have two cars that require plate renewals and a driver's license that also needs to be renewed, you'll be charged an additional $60 if your plates and license aren't renewed within seven days following your birthday," institute President Dan Kelso said in the advisory.

While noting that they didn't come up with the new fees, officials at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles say they've done everything in their power to make sure motorists know about them.

"In response to additional concerns that Ohioans were still not aware and since renewals are done on an annual basis, we anticipate we will continue to receive questions for at least the first year," bureau spokeswoman Lindsey Bohrer said.

"We have placed a late-fee reminder notification on the BMV's main Web site, we have created reminder posters which will be displayed in all BMV deputy registrar's (offices), we have sent reminder e-mails to all Ohioans who have given us their e-mail address through the online renewal system and are also exploring options of putting reminders on mailing envelopes."

Schuring said he's hearing complaints that motorists are getting penalized with little warning. He wrote a note to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles yesterday asking officials to make sure drivers receive adequate notification.

One agency that isn't complaining is the State Highway Patrol. The highway safety fund, which pays the patrol, gets $19.50 of the new $20 late fee; the deputy registrar gets the rest. The highway safety fund received more than $6.4 million from the late fees in the last three months of 2009, according to the Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

Cookie Dough Shortage in our Future?

Posted Jan 15th 2010 11:40AM by Beth Gaston Moon
Filed under: Bad news, Consumer experience

Remember the Eggo waffle storage in November that had everyone up in arms? Well, we could all be facing a similar crisis soon with a treat that's even more sinful: cookie dough.

Now, we all know we are supposed to cut and bake that tube of raw cookie dough, but how many of us haven't opted, instead, to grab a spoon and dig in? It's not the healthiest practice to begin with, for sure, but it becomes a bit more dodgy if harmful bacteria is involved.

Nestle (NSRGY) said routine testing in early January uncovered two samples of cookie dough that tested positive for E. coli O157:H7. All dough that was produced around the time of these tainted samples was destroyed and none of it had shipped to retail outlets. Meanwhile, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is monitoring Nestle's manufacturing practices.

So there will be a halt in cookie-dough delivery to our neighborhood grocery stores. Does this mean a rush on the sweet confections, or will people be foreced to -- gasp! -- stir up their own, old-fashioned batch. Perhaps this couldn't have come at a better time for Nestle, as people are still trying to hold on to their New Year's resolutions (of which "eating healthier" ranks near the top of the list).

This decision comes eight months after 72 people in 30 states were infected with E. coli after reportedly consuming raw Nestle cookie dough, spurring a recall. Nestle has yet to trace the origin of this virus.

Today's political news

Companies shouldn't be able to fire women for taking pregnancy leave even when they haven't worked long enough to qualify, the state's solicitor general told the Ohio Supreme Court yesterday.

The state contends that a Pataskala nursing home illegally fired a nurse in January 2004 after she presented a doctor's note stating that she was unable to work because of pregnancy-related swelling. The nurse went on leave even though her employer had denied her request.

The nurse, Tiffany McFee, had been employed at Pataskala Oaks Care Center for about eight months. The nursing home allowed employees with at least a year's tenure to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for pregnancy or other needs.

The state argues that such policies -- which are common among Ohio employers -- discriminate against women.

"To become pregnant is tantamount to dismissal under a no-leave policy," Solicitor General Benjamin C. Mizer told justices yesterday.

Pataskala Oaks Care Center, joined by organizations representing hundreds of companies across Ohio, argued that employers may require tenure before granting leave for maternity or any other reason.

Organizations representing human-resources professionals couldn't say yesterday how many employers in Ohio have such policies.

As long as the policy doesn't single out pregnant women, it doesn't violate the state's anti-discrimination law, said Jan E. Hensel, attorney for Pataskala Oaks.

"The language of the statute is clear," she said. "It prohibits discrimination. It is entirely silent as to the issue of maternity leave."

The Ohio Civil Rights Commission interpreted the state's anti-discrimination law as requiring "reasonable" leave for pregnant women because only women become pregnant.

After the nursing home fired her, McFee filed a gender-discrimination complaint with the commission, which concluded that Pataskala Oaks had discriminated against her.

The Licking County Common Pleas Court threw out the discrimination claim, but the Civil Rights Commission won a reversal in the 5th District Court of Appeals. The nursing home then took the case to the Supreme Court.

During arguments yesterday, most Supreme Court justices appeared sympathetic to the nursing home's side.

"(The policy) seems to be very evenhanded," Justice Judith Ann Lanzinger said. "It says to all employees, male and female, that no employee may get leave in the first year."

G. Michael Payton, Civil Rights Commission executive director, said after the hearing that the most evenhanded approach would acknowledge that only women can become pregnant and therefore deserve special protections in the workplace.

But the nursing-home industry's top lobbyist, Peter Van Runkle, said granting such leaves to new employees would hinder the ability of nursing homes to care for patients. About 90 percent of nursing-home employees are women, many of childbearing age, said Van Runkle, executive director of the Ohio Health Care Association.

"We view it as being very disruptive to our workplaces and our ability to provide continuity of care," he said.

The Supreme Court is expected to rule within a few months.

Scaling back on salt doesn't sentence you to a life of bland.

By Nanette Maxim

A pinch here, a pinch there -- salt is such a regular part of the way we flavor our foods. But is the salt shaker to blame for the fact that Americans often consume way more than the limit of 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day (the equivalent of a teaspoon of salt) recommended by the American Heart Association? Not necessarily. Read our tips to find out the real sources of sodium in our diet and how to make simple changes that will have you enjoying flavorful food and staying healthy.

Also see our detailed guide to cutting back on sodium, "Take it With a Grain of Salt"

1. Begin with Breakfast
Processed foods, not added table salt, are the culprits for about 77% of our sodium intake, according to the Mayo Clinic. Switch to a shredded whole-grain wheat cereal or oatmeal, and add fresh fruit to your morning meal.
Try it: Rosy Warm Cereal

2. Can the Canned Goods
Opt for fresh vegetables over canned or frozen, when possible, and rinse canned veggies to cut back on sodium content.
Try it: Carribean Rice and Beans

3. Go Garlic Crazy
Herbs like garlic add flavor without amping up the sodium. Also try lemon juice, salt-free herb blends, cumin, nutmeg, cinnamon, fresh ground pepper, tarragon, marjoram, thyme, oregano, and parsley. If you?re using dried herbs, use about a third of what you would use in fresh form.
Try it: Lemon-Garlic Marinated Shrimp

4. Peel An Onion
An instant flavor enhancer, the onion comes in more colors than plain old yellow. Experiment with the bold tastes of leeks, scallions, and shallots, as well as red and white onions.

5. Roast the Veggies
Bring out the flavor of your squash, fennel, carrots, onions, and many more vegetables, by roasting them.
Try it: Roasted Snap Peas with Shallots

6. Stir the Pot (Of Homemade Soup)
You can't beat the convenience of canned soup, but a steaming bowl of the homemade kind will most likely contain dramatically less sodium.
Try it: Velvety Chicken Rice Soup with Ginger

7. Mind the Meats
A low-sodium marinade tenderizes meat and enhances flavor. Eat brined and smoked meats as a treat, not on a regular basis.
Try it: Spicy Chili Rub

8. Condiments Count
Soy sauce, mustard, ketchup, pickles, and even mayonnaise are sodium rich. Try low-sodium versions, and, in general, use a light hand with them.

9. A Splash of Wine
Sauces have greater depth with a bit of added red (for meats and stews) or white (for chicken and fish).
Try it: Baked Cod Casserole

10. Take Stock of the Take-Out Menu
Chinese stir-fries and Mexican burritos are soul-satisfying, but they can pack almost a day?s worth of sodium (not to mention calories) in one entrée, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest. Try to avoid the salty sauces and aim for vegetable dishes. See "How You Can Avoid Sodium When Eating Out."
Try it: Vegetable Fried Rice
Try it: Turkey and Pinto Bean Burritos

Thanks to Trudi for this neat info!!

COFFEE FILTERS

Coffee filters ..... Who knew! And you can buy 1,000 at the Dollar Tree for almost nothing even the large ones.

1. Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave. Coffee filters make excellent covers.

2. Clean windows, mirrors, and chrome... Coffee filters are lint-free so they'll leave windows sparkling.

3. Protect China by separating your good dishes with a coffee filter between each dish.

4. Filter broken cork from wine. If you break the cork when opening a wine bottle, filter the wine through a coffee filter.

5. Protect a cast-iron skillet. Place a coffee filter in the skillet to absorb moisture and prevent rust..

6. Apply shoe polish. Ball up a lint-free coffee filter.

7. Recycle frying oil. After frying, strain oil through a sieve lined with a coffee filter.

8. Weigh chopped foods. Place chopped ingredients in a coffee filter on a kitchen scale.

9. Hold tacos. Coffee filters make convenient wrappers for messy foods.

10. Stop the soil from leaking out of a plant pot. Line a plant pot with a coffee filter to prevent the soil from going through the drainage holes.

11. Prevent a Popsicle from dripping. Poke one or two holes as needed in a coffee filter..

12. Do you think we used expensive strips to wax eyebrows? Use strips of coffee filters..

13. Put a few in a plate and put your fried bacon, French fries, chicken fingers, etc on them. It soaks out all the grease.

14. Keep in the bathroom. They make great "razor nick fixers."

15. As a sewing backing. Use a filter as an easy-to-tear backing for embroidering or appliquéing soft fabrics.

16. Put baking soda into a coffee filter and insert into shoes or a closet to absorb or prevent odors.

17. Use them to strain soup stock and to tie fresh herbs in to put in soups and stews.

18. Use a coffee filter to prevent spilling when you add fluids to your car.

19. Use them as a spoon rest while cooking and clean up small counter spills.

20. Can use to hold dry ingredients when baking or when cutting a piece of fruit or veggies.. Saves on having extra bowls to wash.

21. Use them to wrap Christmas ornaments for storage.

22. Use them to remove fingernail polish when out of cotton balls.

23. Use them to sprout seeds.. Simply dampen the coffee filter, place seeds inside, fold it and place it into a plastic baggie until they sprout.

24. Use coffee filters as blotting paper for pressed flowers. Place the flowers between two coffee filters and put the coffee filters in phone book..

25. Use as a disposable "snack bowl" for popcorn, chips, etc.

OH YEAH THEY ARE GREAT TO USE IN YOUR COFFEE MAKERS TOO.

This may save your life...

Subject: Written by a cop (Please don't delete) it could save your life

(PLEASE DON'T DELETE, THIS MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE)

Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or a loved one's life.

In daylight hours, refresh yourself

of these things to do

in an emergency situation...

This is for you,

and for you to share

with your wife,

your children,

everyone you know.

After reading these 9 crucial tips,

forward them to someone you care about.

It never hurts to be careful

in this crazy world we live in.

1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :

The elbow is the strongest point

on your body.

If you are close enough to use it, do!
2.. Learned this from a tourist guide.

If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse,

DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.

Toss it away from you....

Chances are that he is more interested

in your wallet and/or purse than you,

and he will go for the wallet/purse.

RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car,

kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole

and start waving like crazy..

The driver won't see you, but everybody else will.

This has saved lives.

4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars

after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit

(doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.

DON'T DO THIS!

The predator will be watching you, and this

is the perfect opportunity for him to get in

on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,

and tell you where to go.

AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR ,

LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE..

If someone

is in the car

with a gun

to your head

DO NOT DRIVE OFF,

Repeat:

DO NOT DRIVE OFF!

Instead gun the engine

and speed into anything, wrecking the car.

Your Air Bag will save you.

If the person is in the back seat

they will get the worst of it .

As soon as the car crashes

bail out and run.

It is better than having them find your body

in a remote location.

5. A few notes about getting

into your car in a parking lot,

or parking garage:

A.) Be aware:

look around you,

look into your car,

at the passenger side floor ,

and in the back seat.

B.) If you are parked next to a big van,

enter your car from the passenger door.

Most serial killers attack their victims

by pulling them into their vans while the women

are attempting to get into their cars.

C.) Look at the car

parked on the driver's side of your vehicle,

and the passenger side... If a male is sitting alone

in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back

into the mall, or work, and get a

guard/policeman to walk you back out.

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

6. ALWAYS take the elevator

instead of the stairs.

Stairwells are horrible places to be alone

and the perfect crime spot.

This is especially true at NIGHT!)

7. If the predator has a gun

and you are not under his control,

ALWAYS RUN!

The predator will only hit you (a running target)

4 in 100 times; and even then,

it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ.

RUN, Preferably in a zig -zag pattern!

8. Many women are always trying

to be sympathetic:

STOP

It may get you raped, or killed.

Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking,

well educated man, who ALWAYS played

on the sympathies of unsuspecting women.

He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often

asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle,

which is when he abducted
his next victim.

9. Another Safety Point:

Someone just told me that her friend heard

a crying baby on her porch the night before last,

and she called the police because it was late

and she thought it was weird... The police told her

'Whatever you do, DO NOT

open the door..'

The lady then said that it sounded like the baby

had crawled near a window, and she was worried

that it would crawl to the street and get run over.

The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way,

whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.'

He told her that they think a serial killer

has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax

women out of their homes thinking that someone

dropped off a baby.. He said they have not verified it,

but have had several calls by women saying that

they hear baby's cries outside their doors

when they're home alone at night..

10. Water scam!

If you wake up in the middle
of the night to hear all your taps outside running or what you think is a
burst pipe, DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE! These people turn on all your
outside taps full ball so that you will go out to investigate and
then attack.

Stay alert, keep safe, and look out for your neighbours!

Please pass this on

This e-mail should probably be taken seriously because

the Crying Baby Theory was mentioned on

America 's Most Wanted when they profiled

the serial killer in Louisiana

I'd like you to forward this to all the women you know.

It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle..

I was going to send this to the ladies only,

but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc.,

you may want to pass it onto them, as well.

Send this to any woman you know that may need

to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it

and it's better to be safe than sorry..

Everyone should take 5 minutes to read this. It may save your life or

a loved one's life
