Producers and stagehands are 'very close' to signing a contract to end the 18-day Broadway strike Wednesday, sources told the Daily News.

If a deal is reached, the curtains could rise on more than two dozen shuttered shows by Thursday night.

'We're very close,' said a source involved in the talks.

The contract would last for five years, instead of the usual three.

Local 1, which represents the stagehands, has agreed to change some work rules but is still holding out for some kind of 'salary compensation' in exchange for those concessions, according to a union source

Hall recalled volunteering at the Empty Stocking Fund as a child. 'For someone to rob the Empty Stocking Fund, it's just a travesty,' he said.

Rick Harris, the fund's program manager, said he discovered the burglary Saturday afternoon when he stopped by the warehouse to pick up some paperwork. Flapping curtains and strewn, open boxes gave the crime scene way.

'It's like stealing from church for me,' said Harris. 'It's just the thought of some kids having to do without because some people are being greedy.'

Crawford said vendors have promised to replace the stolen items or at least provide comparable substitutes, perhaps at a lower cost than the $22,000 already spent. The gifts, purchased at discount, have a retail value approaching $50,000

Is there no end to Kylie's talents? The pop princess, who stars in the Christmas episode of Doctor Who, is moving into home decor next year.

'I have some homeware coming out,' she told 'Doctor' David Tennant, who interviewed her for Radio 2's X-amining Kylie.

'Not curtains - bed linens, throws and cushions. I haven't made it to pots yet. You can have leopard-print ones. I mean, let's inject a bit of fun.'

She added that she had a ball in Doctor Who: 'I loved it. In the trailer on the first day I felt in my spiritual home.'

The Indiana Legislature earlier approved $1.6 million for the new play and to upgrade the 22-year-old, 1,500-seat covered Lincoln Amphitheatre at Lincoln State in Spencer County.

Our board has a lot of work to do between now and June 2009, said Will Koch, who heads the drama association.

Lincoln's character was forged right here in Southern Indiana, he said. We want the new play to leave the audience with the understanding that the boy who lived here from ages 7 to 21 became such a remarkable president in large part due to what he experienced and learned here.

The group's Web site (www.LincolnAmphitheatre.com) provides a vision of what it hopes to see incorporated into an inspirational production. That includes using modern electronic media, such as projection screens, projection on water curtains and fog curtains, and even pyrotechnics to more powerfully tell the story.

The play would center on Lincoln and his presidential years, with flashbacks to his Indiana youth and how it forged his character.

We expect historical accuracy, but understand appropriate use of artistic license, says the Web site

Brooklyn cook found dead

Neighbors feared the worst when a man who sold home-cooked meals out of his apartment stopped answering the door.

The 58-year-old was found dead Tuesday in his Bedford-Stuyvesant flat, cops said.

'No one had seen or heard from him for days. You just had a bad feeling, like something bad had happened,' said David Lewis, 42, a neighbor on Decatur St. 'His curtains were closed and he was nowhere to be seen.'

Cops responding to a 911 call found the cook dead with a head wound in his second-floor apartment about 4:15 p.m., cops said. His name was not immediately released.

No weapons were recovered and there were no signs of forced entry, police sources said

Local 1, which represents the stagehands, has agreed to change some work rules but is still holding out for some kind of 'salary compensation' in exchange for those concessions, according to a union source.

'There's a fear that the unions will lose any form of power if they concede to everything without getting something in return,' another union source said.

Local 1 spokesman Bruce Cohen said the issues still left on the bargaining table are 'small in number and important to both sides.'

Most of the sticking points have been over staffing requirements

� Have a professional inspect your roof for any damage that may cause water infiltration to occur when snow piles on.

Interior
Ensure your home interior is warm, dry and ready to remain so for the next few months.

� Apply an extra layer of caulking/sealant around windows and doors to prevent drafts.

� Remove screens from windows and doors (if necessary) and put storm windows in place. Similarly, remove black-out shades or curtains to allow sunlight to enter the home and keep it warmer naturally.

� Inspect your attic and consider adding extra insulation. Not only will this keep your home warmer in the winter, it�ll prevent heat from penetrating in the summer, thus keeping the home cooler.

� Have your fireplace and chimney serviced by a professional prior to seasonal use. Buildup of creosote can cause a flammable situation

Giving evidence by video link from Adelaide, where she now lives, M said Southall had repeatedly asked her how the older boy died and she demonstrated using a pencil and a shoelace. She told the panel that Southall looked at her and said 'very clever' in a sarcastic voice.

The boy was found hanging from a curtain rail. Southall said to her, she continued, sobbing: 'I put it to you that you killed your son by injecting him, hanging him up, leaving him there and then ringing an ambulance.'

During his six days of evidence, Southall said he was trying to protect the younger son and was concerned because the family had burned the curtain rail.

Southall said he was trying to investigate the death in a 'forensic manner' and insisted: 'I wanted to be correct.' He said he was also concerned about what he considered to be gaps in the police investigation and the following inquest - which returned an open verdict.

The GMC also found that Southall had wrongly removed documents relating to this case and that of another family, taking them from London's Royal Brompton hospital to the North Staffordshire Hospital NHS Trust when he changed jobs and adding them to a 'special file' of child abuse cases that he kept.

The GMC panel said that he 'damaged the integrity' of hospital medical records by his actions.

Western and eastern exposures get about 60 percent of the intensity of southern exposures. Northern exposures get only 20 percent of the light of southern exposures. Most of the light coming in north windows is indirect light. Other factors influencing light intensity besides season include the presence and type of curtains, cloud cover, shade from buildings or vegetation, the cleanliness of the window and the reflectiveness of the surroundings. Houseplant owners can compensate for low light intensity by increasing the time a plant is exposed to light. Increased hours of lighting allow the plant to make sufficient food to survive and grow

On Sunday night, Fire Commissioner Barry Fisher said the fire had been intentionally set and its cause was being considered arson.
City police said this morning no arrests have been made and the investigation into the fire is ongoing.
Miller said firefighters found PVC pipe, vinyl shower curtains and a throw rug burning in a bathtub. The fire heavily damaged the bathroom, he said.
Some of the smoke detectors were taken off the wall, the batteries were turned around to appear they were operating, and then put back in place, Miller said.
A first-floor tenant tried to put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. When city fire crews arrived,

Then on December 6th, enjoy a day full of special promotions, open houses, caroling, ice carving and extended shopping hours at many retailers.



This is all part of the 45 Days of December holiday promotion presented by the Greater Downtown Council. Twenty-one storefront windows were draped in red curtains earlier this month to mask the construction efforts of their holiday displays. Those curtains were pulled back on the night of the Christmas City of the North Parade to unveil the magical displays. Anyone who votes at participating businesses is automatically entered into daily downtown gift give-aways.



�Businesses are really getting into the holiday spirit, as well as the competitive spirit,� said GDC President Kristi Stokes. �Plus, by adding a day-long celebration on December 6th throughout the downtown, there�s more excitement and energy.�



From carolers in the skywalk system and ice sculptors at Lake Superior Plaza to extended shopping hours, in-store promotions, sidewalk sales and live music at Holiday Center and open houses at Fitger�s and beyond, there�s plenty of holiday cheer.



Plus, join us at 5:00PM near the Community Christmas Tree at Lake Superior Plaza

He said everything went smoothly this past weekend and the dealers and customers seem to be enjoying the new games and schedule.
'We're doing some construction work, setting tables and working with cameras and lighting and trying to get that all right, and we'll start training in that area in the next week, so we're getting close, yes. Charity nights are coming up Monday the 17th and 18th, and so that will be our practice, if you will. Then shortly thereafter, we'll get opened up here,' said Marshall.
The new tables are behind curtains in the middle of the main gaming floor, and won't be unveiled until the morning of Dec. 17.
Marshall said more than 40 new tables will be available, and he hopes to have all of them up and running by the holiday.

CAMDEN/ROCKPORT (Nov 27): Even if you don't typically follow economic news all that closely, the fact that oil prices are now hovering near the $100-per-barrel mark has probably caught your attention. If not, it should, because stratospheric oil prices will almost certainly affect you as a consumer - and it may also cause you to review your investment strategies.
Of course, if you drive, you're aware of oil economics every time you fill up at the pump. But even if you don't own a car, you'll find that oil - or at least petrochemical products made from crude oil - is leaving a big footprint in your life. From computers to clothing, pens to paint brushes and shampoo to shower curtains, you use petrochemical products made from petroleum all the time, and every day. So, given the stratospheric prices of crude oil, don't be surprised to see the prices of many of these products start to climb.
You might be less concerned about the potential inflationary pressures caused by rising oil prices if your income were rising significantly. But that may not be the case; over the past several years, wage growth has been relatively low. Factoring in inflation, weekly wages were just 2.2 percent higher in September 2007 than in March 2001, according to research compiled by the Center for American Progress.
So, here's the situation in a nutshell: While prices may be going up, your wages may be stagnating

FIRE DRAMA

13:44 - 27 November 2007

A house in Bath was almost destroyed after an student tried to stop a blaze by throwing lit curtains on to a conservatory.The small fire had originally started in a waste paper bin in an first floor bedroom in the Lyndhurst Road property. It was caused by a cigarette which had not been put out properly.The home in Oldfield Park was occupied by four students.One of them tried to dampen the small blaze out with an extinguisher and realised a minor fire had spread to the curtains in the bedroom.
The curtains were then thrown from the bedroom window and landed on the conservatory below.The heat melted the roof of the conservatory, which dripped down and set fire to the conversatory and spread to the kitchen and downstairs bathroom causing considerable damage.The upstairs bedroom was also damaged in the blaze.Fire officers were called to the scene by which time all four occupants were outside.They used three pumps and a turntable ladder to tackle the blaze.An Avon and Somerset Police spokesman said the incident highlighted two major safety issues.'Firstly if you are going to smoke in your home make sure you extinguish the cigarette properly.'And if you do come across a fire, close the door and get everyone out and call 999.'

'Get her away!' Icarus bellowed at Fesano over the ripping of what could only be curtains - it seemed as though Badenne was completely irate now.



Fesano nodded with a rookie's obedience. Picking up Aurora as though she were a suitcase, he ran out of the house. With a flicker of morbid amusement, Icarus could hear the ever-stubborn Aurora chastising Fesano for not knowing how to carry a lady properly.

Sister Needs Help To Deal With Hubby's Depression
Nov 27 2007 Joan Burnie

Q I'M not an interfering neighbour but I am worried about a family beside me.

They have four kids, two are at school, one at nursery and the wee one is home with her mum all day.

This is a friendly neighbourhood but these kids are never out playing.

The curtains are left closed all day and we never see them.

The parents don't talk to anyone either. Am I being a busybody or should I tell someone I don't think things are right in that house?

A MAYBE, given some of the horror stories we've had, there should be more busybodies.

But if there was anything wrong, hopefully the nursery or health visitor would have noticed

To the right of the Q-A team is the management offices with nice views of the downtown core and Boulevard de Maisonneuve.

Just beyond the management offices is the nitty gritty of the operations, the development area.

No development office is complete with a punching bag in the middle of the room, wait a punching bag? 1) It s a great stress reliever 2) It s better than an office dog that is much more distracting and doesn t chew on network cables.

Next to the breakroom is a full shower facility for those downtown core dwellers who bike to the office during the summer months. The lunch room is quite large with a great view of the downtown core for the next year; that is until a condo project next door comes up and they ll end up looking into someone s bedroom (buy curtains folks).

That pretty much sums up the press event, there was a great amount of delicious food and drink to satisfy the fairly large crowd attending the event.

Slipcovers for couches can be sewn in a one piece design. Another option is a form fitting stretch slip cover that clings to furniture contours for a close, tight fit. Some designs come with decorative ties to hold the cover from moving. A semi-fitted, loosely constructed slip cover with a straight or elasticized skirt is yet another choice.




Slipcovers may be paired with throws, matching pillows and even window treatments for a room that is fully coordinated. Sometimes the curtains or pillows come ready made, sometimes you can purchase extra fabric to sew them yourself.




Order prewashed, preshrunk material that is easy to care for and machine washable. Stain repellent technology will keep couch slipcovers looking fabulous after many washings

The accident led to closure of the north and southbound carriageways between Hackforth and Leeming for six hours and caused major delays.

I ve got some help here. He had a crank up camera where he could shoot on top of the film that he was shooting, rewind, and that s when we were making those superimpositions.
