Long-time Darien, Conn., resident Helen Frankenthaler spent her life as a painter of contradictions. The daughter of New York State Supreme Court Justice Alfred Frankenthaler and his wife Martha Lowenstein, she was born on December 12, 1928 in New York City. Her parents encouraged her talent from a young age and she was educated in progressive, experimental schools. However, Frankenthaler did not immerse herself in the growing avant-garde culture until early adulthood. After losing her father to cancer at age eleven, she entered a difficult period which ended when she was fifteen. It was then that she enrolled in the Dalton School where she studied under the great Mexican muralist Rufino Tamayo. She completed her undergraduate work at Bennington College in Vermont where she studied with Paul Freeley.
After graduating with her B.A. in 1949, she returned to New York City set on expanding her influence in the art world. A year later she organized an exhibition for Bennington alumnae artists in New York. It was at this exhibition that Frankenthaler met Clement Greenberg who introduced her to prominent artists like Willem de Kooning, Jackson Pollock, Lee Krasner, and Adolph Gottlieb. It was Gottlieb who selected her work for inclusion in his Fifteen Unknowns exhibit and, in 1951, Frankenthaler was given her first solo exhibition at the Tibor de Nagy Gallery. Her experimentation in the realm of avant-garde Abstract Expressionism began after seeing an exhibition of Jackson Pollock's work. Frankenthaler pioneered the technique of staining unprimed canvas with oil paints and her unique style differed from the layered look of Pollock's pieces.
In 1952, after a trip to Nova Scotia, Frankenthaler painted what is considered her first major work in which she pioneered her soak-stain technique. Painted on canvas laid out on the floor, Mountains and Sea was created by using thinned oil paint applied with window wipers, sponges, and charcoal outlines. The following year, she exhibited Mountains and Sea at her second solo exhibition and it was over the course of this exhibition that she met Morris Lewis and Kenneth Noland. Together, Frankenthaler, Lewis, and Noland would reinvigorate the Color Field Movement.
Critics expounded on Frankenthaler's attention to color in her paintings, while she insisted that her main focus is the drawing. Many credit her with expanding the boundaries of cubism and she often referred to herself as a Cubist painter. The paradoxes of her life as a painter continued as she gained notoriety internationally. Against advice from marketers, Frankenthaler refrained from the movement from large to small canvas work, despite the lack of purchasers for larger pieces. Bias against women artists made her art more difficult to sell, particularly in European markets. In the genre of Abstract Expressionism, women's art was often viewed as overly feminine and concerned with visual continuity as opposed to subject and context. Often mistaken for non-representational, Frankenthaler's work was based on real or imagined landscapes. Because so much of her work was rooted in nature, she complicated the stigma that she was a "feminine" artist. Frankenthaler long insisted that it was her wrist that gave her work its signature style, thus emphasizing the Abstract Expressionist notion that the artist's hand must be visible in the work. As she explained, "Being the person I was and am, exposed to the things I have been exposed to, I could only make my painting with the methods—and with the wrist—I have."
Throughout her extensive career she exhibited at such prestigious museums as the Whitney, the Guggenheim, and New York's Museum of Modern Art. Her art has traveled all over the United States and around the world. She was one of only four American painters presented at the Venice Biennale in 1966. In the late 1960s Frankenthaler began experimenting with alternative media and embraced printmaking, woodcuts, and lithographs. She continued experimenting with different media including clay and steel sculpture and has even designed sets and costumes for England's Royal Ballet.
She was a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters, the National Council for the Arts, and the National Academy of Design as well as an honorary member of The Royal Scottish Academy. She received numerous awards including the 1976 Art and Humanities Award from Yale University, the 1989 Connecticut Arts Award, the 1994 Distinguished Artist Award for Lifetime Achievement from the College Art Association, and the 2001 National Medal of the Arts. She received honorary doctorates from numerous colleges and universities including Smith College, Amherst College, New York University, Harvard University, Yale University, and the University of Hartford.
In 2008 the Knoedler Gallery in New York City honored Frankenthaler with an retrospective entitled Frankenthaler at Eighty: Six Decades. Prices for her work are among the highest of any female artists and she is widely considered to have had the longest, most productive, and most successful career of any woman artist. Some of her most notable works include Mountains and Sea (1952), May 26, Backwards (1961), Canyon (1965), Savage Breeze (1974), Desert Pass (1976), and Essence Mulberry (1977).
Helen Frankenthaler called Connecticut home from the early 1970s onward, maintaining her primary studio in Darien. She died on December 27, 2011 after battling a long illness.
During This Time
1946 - 1965: Women's Activism in Conservative Times
The Cold War in the 1950s between the Soviet Union and the United States produced fear of domestic subversion. The McCarthy Era purged suspected Communists from government, the entertainment industry, and universities, and labeled gays and lesbians as un-American security risks. General anxiety contributed to a popular conception of the family as a source of social stability, and reinforced traditional notions of women's place at home. In 1963, Betty Friedan called this promise of fulfillment through the domestic arts the "feminine mystique," and advocated instead that women seek personal careers.
For two decades, a burgeoning economy and a growing consumer culture had expanded the availability of jobs for women. Notable was the increase in the workforce of married women, especially middle-class white women and educated women, though they were viewed in the media as working less for a career than to assist their families with needed income or desirable amenities for the home.
Some working-class women in labor unions challenged traditional cultural norms, such as the United Electric, Radio and Machine Workers who achieved non-discrimination clauses in local contracts. Middle-class women moderated their interest in women's issues, promoting instead advancement through the League of Women Voters, YWCA, and the American Association of University Women. More radical women in Women Strike for Peace demonstrated against the nuclear arms race and were summoned to the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1962. Many activists would join the Civil Rights Movement.
The movement against segregation following World War II dates from the 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education, which ruled that segregated schools are inherently unequal and thus a violation of the 14th amendment. African-Americans were given new hope, and in 1955 Rosa Parks, a black seamstress who refused to give up her seat to a white man on a bus in Montgomery, Alabama, triggered a bus boycott of critical importance. Black women and white women took part in boycotts, sit-ins, demonstrations, and marches. A culminating achievement in 1965 was the Voting Rights Act pushed through by President Johnson.
Mexican-Americans in the southwest also fought to improve their life and work conditions. In 1962, Dolores Huerta, co-founder with Cesar Chavez of the United Farm Workers, played a leading role in organizing a national boycott of grapes that forced growers to sign a contract with the union.
Other ethnic groups were soon to come to America, enriching its diversity. The Immigrant and Nationality Act of 1965 established an immigration system based on family preference. Half of the new immigrants came from Mexico and Central and South America, while a quarter were from Asia. Two-thirds of the immigrants were women and children. While poverty and acculturation were issues, for many the time-honored American process of upward social mobility had begun.

STOCKTON - A man was in the front yard of his Weston Ranch home Saturday afternoon when someone shot at him, police said.
The shots were fired about 12:30 p.m. in the 4100 block of McDougald Boulevard.
The 50-year-old man told officers he dove to the ground when he saw the shooter kneel down across the street and fire a gun at him, police said.
Homes in the area were struck by gunfire, but no injuries were reported, authorities said.
The shooter fled on a bicycle, officers said. He was described as a black man about 22 years old, 5 feet 6 inches tall and 140 pounds with a dark complexion, twisted hair, a gray hooded sweatshirt and gray pants, authorities said.
STOCKTON - Fire crews worked quickly Saturday to extinguish a blaze inside a warehouse in an industrial complex near Farmington Road and Highway 99, authorities said.
The fire was reported at 4:32 p.m. after police arrived in response to an alarm in the 2200 block of Stagecoach Road, officials said.
Stockton firefighters arrived moments later aboard Engine 12 to find a fire and heavy smoke in a warehouse filled with rolls of carpet, authorities said.
The fire started in a bathroom and spread to the attic, officials said.
Firefighters quickly doused the flames, limiting damage to the building, authorities said.
The cause of the fire is under investigation, officials said.
STOCKTON - An 18-year-old man was struck with a wrench Friday afternoon while trying to fend off a mob that attacked his girlfriend in a Stockton park, authorities said.
The man and his girlfriend were at Kentfield Park near Kentfield Road and Coventry Drive about 2:35 p.m. when the woman was attacked by a number of men and women, police said.
When the man tried to help his girlfriend, someone struck him with the wrench.
There was no description of the assailants and police did not provide any information on the victims' injuries.

Common Situations with the Three Resources Part 3, MLG/ManaGrind Weekend Tournaments
Armory Stats - Battle Pet Collection
Today we are taking a look at the battle pet ownership achievement completion rate of players. Now that achievements are account wide, we can group characters by account and get an idea of what percentage of players (not characters) have completed an achievement.
These numbers are based off of the players that have earned the achievements in the pet collection series and Raiding with Leashes, Raiding with Leashes II: Attunement Edition, Crazy for Cats, and Celestial Family.
The data used today is a sample of 8.1 million characters from 3 million accounts. The sample is slightly biased, as players who are not in a guild are much less likely to appear in our sample. You can leave suggestions for future stat posts in the comments!

Get out your brick!

- Great novelty gift or costume accessory
- Compatible with iPhone 3GS, 4, and 4S
We remember the very first time we saw a cell phone. It was summer sleepover camp and we were in the backwoods of Maine, far from civilization. (Or it least it seemed that way!) On the first day of camp, the adults were going over all the important details, including that if we had an emergency and needed to call for an ambulance Mr. Jones had a mobile phone. And sure enough, he lifted this... brick of a device. Our eyes were like dinner plates. This was a phone. A MOBILE PHONE. Whoa.
If you'd like to relive the days of having the ultimate status symbol, slip your iPhone into this chunky, brick-like case. It's not going to fit in your pocket or your purse, but if your backpack or briefcase is big enough, you might have some luck. Don't worry, though, the Retro iPhone case still allows you to access all of your 21st-century features. We're definitely picking up one of these to use at 80s costume parties.
Product Specifications
- Turn your iPhone into one of the first mobile phones
- Combines the iconic look of an 80s "brick" handset with the specs of your iPhone
- Big and sturdy: protects against bumps and scratches
- Stands up on its own, vertical or horizontal
- Great novelty gift, gag gift, or costume accessory
- Compatible with iPhone 3GS, 4, and 4S

Twenty Years Ago
July 1979
In the Memo: From the Mayor Mayor Dutch Morial announced the annual "Saints Contest." The person who
came closest to guessing the final record of the Saints received a $50 gift certificate from D.H. Holmes. The Mayor,
although he was ineligible for the contest, picked the Saints to finish with a 10-6 record and have their first winning
season ever. He was a little off; the Saints finished 8-8 that year, not quite the coveted winning season, which
finally came in 1987.
The Hall Talks Asks question for the month was "What's your favorite New Orleans bar?" Several people chose Flamingos on St. Charles Ave. and several chose The Bull, just off Elysian Fields, both of which have since closed. Joe Peyton, Clerk of Family Court, said, "I go to the ice cream parlor, now. I've reformed."
The Out to Lunch column featured The Dividend, a deli/sandwich shop at 740 Gravier--"a little of New York in old New Orleans." Not a seafood po-boy in sight!
In 1979, the city conducted "the most extensive review of its disaster and emergency procedures ever
undertaken," and on July 3 staged a mock disaster (a hurricane with a spin-off tornado that created a hazardous gas leak)
to practice the city's response to emergency situations.
The July issue saluted Claude J. Bean, a Municipal Development Specialist in the Office of Manpower, for his efforts in getting the St. Peters African Methodist episcopal Church (at the corner of Cadiz and Coliseum) added to the National Register of Historic Places. Bean was a member of the congregation and also submitted the application which resulted in the building's historic designation.
The Mayor also honored four city employees during Vietnam Week: Joseph Givens, NORD and Ron Gardner, Mayor's Office (who received Presidential awards for outstanding community achievement by Vietnam-era veterans); and Oliver Walker, Human Services, and Cecil McFarland, Sanitation (who received Hubert H. Humphrey awards for service).

Story highlights
- Staircases are important elements in home decor as well as family memories
- "If you paint three stories of spindles, you never forget it," said Victoria Barnes
- Collages are a modern interpretation of the "wall of shame"
There are plenty of reasons to fall in love with a staircase.
It's a home's conduit and connector. It ushers life along, makes a grand impression on visitors and serves as the backdrop for family memories.
"It's where my daughter took pictures for her first daddy-daughter dance," said Anisa Darnell, part of the Milk and Honey Home decorator team from Roswell, Georgia. Her home's staircase is also special to her because her grandfather posed with her daughter for a snapshot there before he passed away.
The back staircase in Emily A. Clark's home is significant because it's mostly used by her kids. "I've also caught them playing school on the little landing in the middle of the stairs."
Jacki Poovey and her husband designed their staircase to be a grand, welcoming part of their Cary, North Carolina home, but it's also at the heart of countless family memories. It still bears reminders of the time their puppy chewed every bit of molding from the edges of the newel post to the cap molding on the treads. "It's a lived-in home," says Poovey.
Massive undertakings, like DIY home renovations, can imbue a home's staircase with lasting impressions of the experience.
"If you paint three stories of spindles, you never forget it," Victoria Barnes said of the painstaking restoration she and her husband undertook in their 1890 Victorian home near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Barnes blogs about the "really, really, really slow" process of their work, which she calls wonderful and overwhelming.
Christine Price, from Manchester, England, can relate, having spent 250 hours stripping, sanding and painting the staircase in her Edwardian home. "The staircase is the first thing you see when you enter our home," she said. "Now that it's restored it makes such a huge difference to the whole feel of the house."
For Jenna Burger, an interior designer and blogger, a staircase makeover led to an overhaul of every molding in her house. The staircase decor represents a significant change for her home's aesthetic, she said.
"I was unhappy with the worn, dated carpeted stairs before and desired a more updated, modern look," she said. So up went the carpet and down went paint and stain.
Paint was also the key ingredient in Jae Vinson's economical transformation of her back staircase. With natural wood as the "runner" and crisp white paint on the sides of the treads, the previously dingy atmosphere was radically lightened.
"This is a garage entry staircase," Vinson said. "It's something I use every single day going to and from my car. The space feels more welcoming now."
The feel of the staircase can be an important part of decorating a home, Darnell said. Obsessed with collages, she chose to decorate her staircase because it opened up to her family room and dining room, and its huge, blank wall stood out.
"I wanted it to be interesting and visually pretty," she said. Now photos, frames, decorative keys and even a lantern adorn the staircase, which she designed to be a tribute to her family.
"We have loved ones up there, wedding photos, engagement photos, our siblings, parents, grandparents, our daughters," she said. "The staircase has personality."
Photo walls along staircases have come a long way since the "wall of shame," full of unfortunate school photos and stilted professional portraits.
Jill Hinson currently lives in Portland, Oregon, but her family moves often because of her husband's job. The black and white portraits she has taken of her two daughters since their births are a decorating element that makes each house they live in a home.
"The gallery wall tells the story of our family," Hinson said. "Where we have been, the growth of our girls and what is personal and important to us."
The Hinsons moved into the Portland house two years ago, "and as soon as I saw this gigantic wall going up the stairs, I new that it was the perfect place for a gallery wall."
Clark's staircase is lined with large and small works of art by her children, as well as canvases of their hand and footprints. "Even my own kindergarten evaluation is framed and hung in the mix," she said. "There's still lots of wall space, so this area will continue to be a work in progress. I'd love to fill it full of their colorful masterpieces," Clark said.
The decor of the stairwell began with a decal of her favorite quote from the movie, "The Help," which says "You is kind. You is smart. You is important."
"I love that quote," Clark said, "and thought it was a sweet reminder for our kids as they bound up those steps, several times every day. It also reminds me of what they need to hear from me on a regular basis."

The NFLPA's recent effort to shine a light on the deficiencies with doctors who are bought and paid for by teams to treat players, while appropriate, also opens the door for similar scrutiny of the union.
Rand Getlin of Yahoo! Sports has strolled through that door, reporting that the NFLPA certified in 2012 an agent who at the time was under indictment for fraud.
Everette Scott was convicted last week of defrauding investors of more than $5 million. Scott, per Getlin, was under indictment at the time the union re-certified agents following the 2011 lockout and NFLPA decertification.
While the quality of the union's efforts to protect players against unscrupulous agents is an important issue, this looks and feels another example of the peddling of negative information by folks who have an agenda. Getlin surely didn't trip over these facts on his own; someone who has an axe to grind with Scott or the NFLPA surely was shopping it in order to stir up trouble.
When the NFLPA shut itself down in 2011 for strategic reasons, the regulation of agents ended. Then, when the lockout ended and the union returned, all of the agents who had been certified became certified again. Absent evidence that Scott defrauded players or that Scott at least was actually representing players during the time he was under indictment, does it really matter that the bulk process of flipping the switch back to "on" for hundreds of agents who needed to be recertified missed the fact that one of the agents had in the interim been indicted?
In a perfect world, the union would have spotted the information and refused to recertify Scott. Without evidence that player interests were actually compromised, the fact that Scott slipped through the cracks was a small price to pay for the leverage that allowed the players to do a better deal than they would have gotten if they had remained unionized in the face of a lockout.
Significant questions linger regarding whether the quality of the deal the players did, especially in light of a salary cap that has been flat for three seasons. For someone with an axe to grind against the union, that would be a far more relevant subject on which to stir up criticism and concern. But, of course, that would require something slightly meatier than a superficial game of "gotcha" arising from a connect-the-dots timeline that ignores the broader circumstances.

CNN Sweeps Away GOP Intransigence On Taxes In Budget Talks
CNN falsely portrayed disagreement over changes to the federal budget as being exclusively due to Democrats' reluctance to cut social safety net programs. In two segments on Early Start, CNN didn't mention that Republicans' resistance to increasing taxes on the wealthy is also an obstacle in reaching a compromise to avoid the automatic tax increases and spending cuts known as the fiscal cliff.
In the first segment, guest host Christine Romans described the negotiations by saying, "Entitlement reform is a stumbling block here." She continued, "Democrats don't want deep cuts to programs like Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security. Republicans see no other choice."
Co-host Zoraida Sambolin went further in the second segment, claiming that "the sticking point" in fiscal cliff negotiations is "entitlement reform." Sambolin continued, "Republicans appear willing to budge on higher taxes for the wealthy, but only if programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid face cuts."
CNN isn't telling the whole story. Though Romans later discussed tax revenues in an interview with Rep. Diane Black (R-TN), her segment at the top of the show erased Republicans' unwillingness to consider tax increases on the wealthy -- which has been a sticking point in the negotiations.
Immediately following the election, House Speaker John Boehner called raising tax rates "unacceptable [1]" to the Republican House. A few days later, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell told [2] The Wall Street Journal, "We have a voter mandate not to raise taxes," and said, "I am not willing to raise taxes to turn off the sequester. Period." Republicans' insistence on maintaining the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy has remained [3] one of the biggest points of disagreement [4].
And Sambolin's claim that Republicans "appear willing to budge on higher taxes for the wealthy" is questionable at best. While a handful [5] of Republicans have indeed signaled a willingness to compromise on raising taxes for the wealthy, most Republicans are instead saying they are open to "eliminat[ing] individual loopholes and deductions," as The Washington Post reported [3]. And as the Post noted, ending many of those deductions would affect not only the wealthy, but would also "reach far into the middle class."

Mobile Phone Spy Safeguards Your Family
As parents, who do you generally care about the most? There is no wonder that your kids and their safety couldn't be more important to you. Presently children are provided with different types of technology devices such as mobile phones, personal computers and more. It is noteworthy that mobile phone has become an indispensable part of their everyday life. However, mobile phone hides multiple threats to kids. That's why you should use phone spy to keep tabs on the phone usage in order to ensure they are safe with their mobile phones.
How Mobile Phone Spy Safeguards Your Family?
This simply means, the phone spy should be capable of invisibly monitoring your children's activities on their phones so that it will be very difficult or impossible for them to find they are being spied with mobile phone spy. The phone spy software will automatically run in stealth mode after installing and it is unable to be detected by kids, this gives the silent phone spy no opportunity to offend your kids, let alone cause their misunderstandings in your relationships.
Things are going to be easier if the phone spy allows you to remotely check recorded information, such as SMS, calls, URLs, social media and much more. When you are miles away from your children, the mobile phone spy software provides you with the ability to check recorded logs through computers or any other Internet connected devices, which is faster, safer and more convenient for you to keep a watchful eye on your children's phone activity.
A Phone spy helps you make clear whether they are keeping in touch with some adult strangers. Kids are too young to tell the good from the bad, especially when they are seeking access to the complicated network world by using their mobile phones. You should apply useful phone spy software to effectively protect them out of any potential danger.

Best Time to Visit Baltimore and South Baltimore
Much like the rest of the Mid-Atlantic, Baltimore experiences all four seasons. Keep in mind though that since it's on the water, the Chesapeake Bay, the weather can change often. Spring is a great time to visit Baltimore - not only for baseball games at Camden Yards, but for the picturesque scenery.
Baltimore plays hosts to several festivals and events year-round. One of its major tourist attractions is the Preakness, the "second jewel" of horseracing's Triple Crown. This event takes place in May and draws a huge crowd. The city holds many waterfront and neighborhood festivals during the summer as well, including Artscape, a three-day event honoring the arts.
Average Baltimore Weather
Average temperatures in the spring and fall are a mild 50 to 60 degrees. In winter, temperatures aren't known to drop much lower than 30 degrees, but occasional snow is possible. Summers tend to be very hot and humid, with average temperatures in the 80s and 90s.
Baltimore Transportation
Most visitors to Baltimore choose to tour the city in a car. It's fairly easy to navigate, given its many alternating one-way streets. Parking can be rather expensive, especially if you're downtown. If you're planning to travel from the Inner Harbor to areas north, it's wise to take a cab. You can find taxis at most major hotels, the train station and scattered throughout the Inner Harbor area.
For those staying in downtown Baltimore, the Metro offers limited service. Don't depend on it as your sole source of transportation. If you're heading into the suburbs or BWI Airport, the Metro is great. It also makes stops at Camden Yards, Penn Station and Mount Washington.
In-Season Costs for Visiting Baltimore
If you're staying in a downtown Baltimore hotel during the spring or summer, rates will be higher higher than during the "off season." The Inner Harbor is more expensive than other parts of Baltimore, but you should be able to find some bargains. Less expensive than the nation's capital, Baltimore won't break the bank.
Day Trips from Baltimore
Annapolis: Annapolis is one of the oldest cities in the country. The U.S. Naval Academy was established there in 1845. Visitors to Annapolis will enjoy the waterfront festivals that take place each summer. Annapolis is known as a boating community, with tours, cruises and even sailboat rentals available much of the year. Annapolis is less than an hour south of Baltimore by car.
Ocean City: If you have a little extra time to play or go on a day-trip, head over to Ocean City. About two-and-a-half hours east of Baltimore, this vacation spot is best suited for an overnight getaway. The resort town is an escape for Baltimoreans. Deep-sea fishing, windsurfing, sailing, cruising the boardwalk, or just lounging on the beach are favorite pastimes here.
Washington DC: The nation's capital is just 35 miles away, easily accessible by train or by car via the Baltimore-Washington Parkway. Take a day to explore the White House, the Mall, the monuments, the Smithsonian Museum(s) or the National Zoo. If you're planning to drive to D.C., keep in mind that rush hour will tack on at least an hour to your commute.

As beautiful and tranquil as a luxury villa compound on a tropical island, this riverfront estate in Riomar Bay is tucked away on a cul-de-sac isle, where southwesterly vistas take in a spellbinding expanse of wide-open river waters, dotted with wooded islets, stretching all the way down to the 17th Street Bridge and beyond. Built in 2008, the casually elegant main residence and companion guest house were designed by noted Vero Beach architect Moulton Layne and constructed by J.C. Welton, a respected high-end firm also based in Vero Beach.
A tree-canopied drive circles around to the front courtyard, centered on a natural rock fountain in this serene tropical garden opening up a view of the river through the home's French-door entry. Once inside, the river's full beauty is showcased in the fresh, light interiors that flow openly from room to room. Set off by airy pavilion-style ceilings, the great room and family room open to the gorgeous outdoor gathering space by the resort-inspired pool, taking advantage of the river views and romantic sunsets in this relaxing realm with various lounge areas tucked among the gardens and swaying palm trees.
Picturesque views also backdrop the spacious riverfront master suite which enjoys the luxury of two separate baths plus an outdoor spa. Other family members and guests have the privacy of four more bedroom suites including the separate two-story guest house entered from the front courtyard by another garden fountain. Complete with lift-equipped dockage for the boater, this Riomar Bay estate stands out as a true masterwork notable for its fine design and craftsmanship as well as its sensational riverfront setting.
River Drive, Vero Beach, Florida. In the heart of Vero Beach's barrier island, between the two bridges to the mainland, Riomar Bay is a sought-after gated riverfront community offering wonderful seclusion in town near the private Riomar Country Club, Quail Valley River Club, and the charming village's ocean beachfront, fine boutiques, restaurants, and cultural attractions including the Vero Beach Museum of Art and Riverside Theatre.
On 138+/- feet of riverfront, this lushly landscaped island-inspired estate commands a wide-open southerly perspective from its tranquil palm-studded setting lined with privacy hedges. Banks of glass open the main house to the long-range river views that take in the distant Bridge and end the day with a romantic sunset. The classic columned verandah steps out to the garden terrace where palm trees anchor the elegantly designed pool and spa. Another lounge area takes in the view from right by the water's edge. Dockage on the other side of the shoreline is outfitted with a boat lift.
American walnut floors, peaked ceilings, custom millwork, and impact-rated glass are featured finishes in spacious floor-plan totaling 6,674+/- square feet with five bedrooms and six and a-half baths including the guest house plus a two-bay garage. Amenities include a whole-house sound system.
River views are captured right at the courtyard entry into the airy great room where French doors open to the poolside verandah amid the river's full beauty. Classic columns anchor the wood-paneled cathedral ceiling of this comfortably elegant gathering space which has custom built-ins including a media center, across from a walk-through wet bar also accessible from the pool area. The open dining room connects to the gourmet kitchen which is beautifully designed with a beamed cathedral ceiling, crisp white cabinetry, contrasting granite counters, and a wood-topped island/bar. High-end appliances include the Wolf gas range, oven, and microwave; Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer; Bosch dishwasher; KitchenAid dishwasher drawers; and Miele coffee system. Leading to the poolside verandah and also accessing the wet bar, the open cathedral-ceilinged family/breakfast room is brightened by a river-view bay window and anchored by an inviting fireplace. Across the living room, a vestibule enters the riverfront master suite which opens to a relaxing outdoor spa and also overlooks a serene garden. Next to a custom-fitted study/office facing the river, the peak-ceilinged master bedroom is accompanied by two luxurious marble baths, one with a jetted tub and shower, both with walk-in closets. Two more bedroom suites are privately placed in separate wings.
Guest House: Across the garden courtyard, the two-story guest house features a light-filled double-height sitting room finished with cottage-style paneled walls and served by a wet bar. There are two bedroom suites, one on each level.

5 Darien Lake Rides That Will Make You Scream Like a Little Girl
You've been belted in and blasted off, and now you're inching your way to the "best" part of one of Darien Lake's rides — the big drop, the giant loop, the moment in the ride where your stomach feels like it's going to fall out. There's nothing quite like that feeling you get when you realize you're questionably fastened into something that's designed to make you scream, cry, throw up or do all three.
That's not a knock at Darien Lake — more like props to them! If you're looking for that special sort of thrill that only comes at an amusement park, here's my list of five Darien Lake rides that will make you scream like a little girl (yup, even you, tough guy).
Ride of Steel
If the suspense of the climb to the top of that first hill doesn't make you scream, that 208-foot drop will. That is, if you can even open your mouth while whipping down the track at 70 miles per hour. Watch out for bugs!
Grizzly Run
Darien Lake describes this ride as "a roaring river rapids adventure." I just describe it as "wet." You can mentally prepare, but it's still a shock when that first blast of water hits you.
Mind Eraser
You know your feet aren't going to hit this roller coaster's support beams. Really, you told yourself that a million times when you were waiting in line. But when your car pulls out of the loading area and you start zipping through those twists and turns? Forget it; that logic is gone.
Just when you think the roller coaster is over, you have to go through it again — backwards. 'Nuff said.
Big Kahuna
There's nothing quite like racing down a 700-foot-long water slide with three of your closest friends. And because going through one dip at a time isn't enough, this slide has three dips, all in a row. Hang on to your swimsuit!

The evolution continues.
Jeep's legendary Wrangler has gotten quite refined in recent years. Despite an interior overhaul in 2011, Jeep has upgraded the seats, interior lighting, and soft top for 2013. Those changes might not be as impressive as the new-for-2012 Pentastar V-6 was, but small changes are much better than letting an aging model languish. There's still a decidedly trucky feeling through the steering wheel, thanks to the Wrangler's signature solid axles and relatively long suspension travel. Not many vehicles can haul five people and a respectable amount of luggage to virtually any destination you can imagine. And no other vehicle can do so while allowing passengers to enjoy the unique open-air experience of driving without a top or doors. Speaking of which, the Wrangler Unlimited's soft top is now easier to operate by a single person, and an optional premium soft top reduces interior noise. The hard top offers additional flexibility and can now be had in body-matching colors. The Wrangler handles every situation, from cruising the beach to taming the Rubicon Trail, with equal ease. Previous Wranglers required sacrifices from owners and didn't make much sense for daily use, but the 2013 Wrangler has managed to become civilized enough for the mainstream market without abandoning its off-road heritage or sacrificing capability.
Nissan Xterra
Suzuki Grand Vitara
Toyota FJ Cruiser
new for 2013
Jeep's continued evolution of the Wrangler brings better front and rear seats, extra interior lighting, and a standard auto-dimming rearview mirror. Soft tops are easier for one person to manage on Unlimited models, and a premium soft top is easier to clean and keeps the cabin quieter. A limited-edition Moab model based on the Sahara adds off-road touches but doesn't threaten the Rubicon's top-dog status.
Front air bags, traction and stability control, roll mitigation, ABS, brake assist, and hill-start assist are standard. Side air bags and electronic trailer-sway control are optional. No fancy blind-spot detection or automatic parking system here.

Committing to lean manufacturing can be an intimidating proposition for those who aren't prepared for change. This article explains how implementing lean step-by-step can benefit print providers.
By Les deHamer
Lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, Kaizen, and Kanban are terms that, for most printers, bring on a sense of confusion, misunderstanding, and yes -- even fear. Many of us believe we need some mystical Japanese teaching to be able to understand and apply the techniques that have led some of the Japanese auto makers to record years of performance and profitability. The truth of the matter is that although we may need some assistance in getting started, many printers already have the basic principles in place for being able to start down the road to lean manufacturing.
One of the traditional roadblocks associated with the journey of lean manufacturing is the misunderstanding that a company needs to hire an expert to initiate a companywide change of culture. I believe that this overwhelming challenge is what has held back our industry from beginning down the lean pathway. The need to hire a full-time, in-house lean expert can be a very expensive undertaking and is not necessary, given that consultants are available who can serve as experts for rent. Regardless of where the expert comes from, the more important challenge is understanding the companywide cultural change that comes with lean manufacturing.
Initiating and supporting change
What happens to a pond when the water doesn't change? It becomes stagnant, life stops, and the pond dies. By nature, humans are very resistant to change. But in organizational life, few things are as constant as change itself. Markets change continually in a competitive world, and to survive, a business must be willing and ready to adapt to shifting economic and market conditions. If we fail to learn, adapt, adjust, and change, we can face commercial extinction. So the question must be asked and answered: How should we implement change?
Most companies don't manage change, they impose it. Most change comes downhill from management. Change is often done using a top-to-bottom process, making employees feel like they have been acted upon, rather than being active participants. A leader's role is to manage the change process by providing order, structure, and direction.

Le 12 août 2013
Swiss precision is renowned world wide but on Friday evening Montpellier brought their own precision, but of a different kind. The first ever Legion Geneva Challenge was held to promote Swiss rugby, 4 teams Harlequins Racing Metro, Leicester and our very own Montpellier. The result of the first match a victory for Racing 40 -28 against Harlequins. The second game between Montpellier and Leicester was played in the evening in front of a good 10,000 holiday crowd who came with interest to see this first ever Challenge organised by the Swiss. The 3rd pre season game for Montpellier and although Leicester had several players missing as they were on forced holiday after the Lions tour down under, the French / English games have always had spice and one-upmanship, the winner is always remembered and often reminded by their vanquished opponents of the next game, which funnily enough is in December as Leicester are in the same Pool 5 as Montpellier in this seasons H Cup. Whether Montpellier had eaten a super lunch or it was just the Swiss air, from the very start their only wish was to play fast open but with the greatest of precise, against the Premiership Champions. This they succeeded in doing with near relative ease running in 8 magnificent tries, Lucas Dupont got a hat-trick, Yohann Artru went over twice, Francois Trinh-Duc, Yoan Audrin one apiece, and Jonnie Beattie did himself no harm with a try of his own. All bar two were converted by Francois Trinh-Duc, Jonathan Pelissie and Benoit Paillaugue who was making his first showing of the season after the birth of his daughter Milla, heartiest congratulations to both parents. The final score Montpellier 52 Leicester 15, and after such a resounding result Montpellier received their first trophy of the season, let's hope it will not be the last!!!
The start of this season's TOP 14 is now only 5 days away, KO 20.45 Fri evening 16th August, but what timing by General Galthie's prodigies, Montpellier looked very sharp in all departments playing some thrilling rugby at great pace, they never gave Leicester a chance the scrum was superb even with the new rules, defence very solid, Leicester only went over twice through Morris, and with ball in hand Montpellier were ferocious, Francois Trinh-Duc orchestrated from the 10 spot with guile and ability, showing the Swiss why he will soon be wearing that French no.10 shirt. The centre pairing of Wynand Oliver and Anthony Tuitavake performed very well, serving both Artru and Dupont with 5 tries between the two wingers, both scrum halves Pelisse and Paillaugue gave good ball and if there was space they both used it intelligently, The pack dynamic and looks ready to give Toulon a torrid time next Fri evening. All in all an excellent last pre season warm-up game, now the most serious of seasons yet, is about to start with the visit of H Cup winners Toulon who have recruited again this season, some of the Worlds greatest rugby players, that is why Friday evenings match is already a sell out, with standing room only, left to be purchased. The first match to be televised by Canal + this season and what a match to appetise any rugby supporter this could be one of the toughest but best seasons ever witnessed in France. Can't wait !!!!!!

Burning Carbs
by Jeanne Miller
Carbohydrates (also known as "carbs" or "carbos") are a large class of foods that includes sugars and starches. They are our body's preferred source of energy for everything we do: running and jumping, eating and sleeping, and everything in between. They keep our bodies going.
They can be simple sugars (like glucose), or two or more simple sugars hooked together (like sucrose), or many simple sugar molecules bonded together into starches. Before using carbohydrates for fuel, our bodies have to break these compounds down into simple sugars. Those carbohydrates that resist breaking down move through our digestive tract as fiber and never contribute to the body's energy supply.
Breaking the bonds between the sugar molecules, our digestive system produces a supply of glucose, which enters the bloodstream and travels to our cells to supply energy. To help our cells take up the glucose from the blood, the pancreas releases the hormone insulin. Our cells use the glucose to power whatever activities we're engaged in. If there's more glucose than is needed at the moment, the extra is converted to glycogen and fat and stored in the liver, muscles, and fat cells for future use. When the blood sugar is depleted and we need more fuel, the glycogen is converted back to glucose. When we exercise for a long time, after we use up the available glycogen, we begin burning fat.
Easily digested carbohydrates, such as white bread and sugar, rapidly load the blood with glucose, which triggers a matching insulin response. This quickly drives the glucose into the cells, leaving the blood-sugar level low. We feel hungry again and, if we eat, the extra food will be stored as body fat. By contrast, carbohydrates that are combined with fiber, as they are in whole grains and in fruits and vegetables, are digested slowly and don't provoke an excessive insulin response.
Paying attention to the kind of carbohydrates we consume is vital to controlling our weight.
- hormone:
- A substance produced by certain glands and carried by the blood to bodily organs and tissue. Hormones regulate some body functions and control growth.
- pancreas:
- A gland behind the stomach that gives off secretions that help digestion and hormones such as insulin.
- insulin:
- A hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates the body's ability to use sugar.
- What is released inside a person's body when he or she eats a lot of easily digested carbohydrates?
Answer: A lot of insulin.
- Think of your favorite carbohydrate, such as pasta, potatoes, or bread. Now remember a time when you ate a lot of that food at once. Write a paragraph describing the food that you ate and how you felt afterwards. Include details about whether you had a lot of energy or if you were very tired. Do you think your favorite carbohydrate is made up of simple sugars, like glucose, or complex sugars, like sucrose? Explain your answer.
Answer: Answers will vary. Students' responses should include the name of a favorite carbohydrate, how they felt after eating a lot of that carbohydrate, and whether they think the carbohydrate is simple or complex, and why.

Republic Attack Gunship
Rugged, combat-equipped repulsorcraft, Republic attack gunships rained down blistering barrages of laser and rocket retribution against the droid forces of the Separatists. Each winged gunship was covered in weapons, offering air-to-ground and air-to-air support as well as serving as an infantry transport. The front of the gunship features hunchback-style cockpit bubbles, wherein the gunship pilot and copilot / gunner sit in single file. Chin-mounted on the craft are a pair of laser cannon turrets. On the gunship's dorsal surface are its primary armaments, two massive rocket launchers fed by a rear-mounted missile belts.

Clone Troopers
At the time of their introduction, the Republic clone troopers represented the future of galactic warfare. Far superior to battle droids, the clone troopers formed the backbone of the Republic's new military that waged war against the forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. So symbolic were they of the times, the galaxy-wide conflict that saw their debut took its name from their ranks: the Clone Wars.
Clone Commander Cody
A natural and practical leader in the clone army, Cody was a good fit for General Kenobi, to whom he was particularly loyal. Cody's keen ability to strategize, combined with his fierce combat style in the heat of battle, earned him the respect of the Jedi, and of his fellow clones as well. He often worked with Captain Rex, with whom he became friends. Cody enjoyed a close relationship with Kenobi, often sharing a tension-busting joke with him during intense moments on the battlefield. When Darth Sidious gave Order 66, however, Cody's loyalty to Kenobi was eclipsed by his clone indoctrination, and he ordered his troops to fire on the Jedi.
Clone Captain Rex
Clone Captain Rex served the Republic during the Clone Wars, often taking orders from Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano. He viewed military service as an honor, and he always completed his mission. Fond of using two blaster pistols at the same time, Rex customized his armor with distinctive blue markings. His loyalty to the Republic and his Jedi Generals was absolute, but even this dedicated veteran soldier found himself plagued by doubts as the Clone Wars claimed more lives and brought ruin to more worlds.
Clone Commander Wolffe
Clone Commander Wolffe (clone designation CC-3636) served under General Plo Koon in the Clone Wars, as commander of the tight-knit unit known as the Wolfpack. A seasoned and battered combatant, Wolffe has witnessed some of the worst the war has to offer. Early in the Clone Wars, he lost his entire command when Master Plo's flagship, Triumphant, was destroyed by the despicable General Grievous. Despite such tragedy, he fights on bravely, proudly brandishing his battle scars and instilling loyalty among his men.

UPDATE – Highway Reopened After Truck Hits Guardrail on I-90
At approximately 1:15 a.m. on Monday, September 23, the male driver of a Ford F-150 pickup truck traveling west on Interstate 90 lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the guardrail, sending the truck's rear axle and a drum of diesel fuel into the Clark Fork River.
Montana Highway Patrol trooper Luke Burson said the one-vehicle accident occurred at mile marker 109 near the Bonner exit on I-90. The truck struck the guardrail in such a way that the guardrail actually went through the truck, sending the rear axle into the river. The westbound lanes of I-90 were closed until the truck could be cleared away from the guardrail, and the debris was removed from the river.
The westbound lanes of I-90 were reopened at about 5 a.m., Burson said.
Burson said the diesel drum was sealed, and no fuel was leaking into the river. However, the Department of Emergency Services were called and were on the scene at the time of this report.
The driver of the pickup was able to walk away from the accident with no injuries, Burson added.

commenced ? to what ex-
tent it was carried on ? when it began to decline ? and when it was wholly discontinued ?
3. Whether it was carried on by European or American adventurers ? by what
means its declension
first began ? whether from legislative discouragement or other causes? & to what causes its abo-
lition is to be ascribed?
4. The State of Slavery in
Massachusetts when slaves were most numerous? their number when
numerous? their proportion to the Number of white persons at that period?
5. The mode by which Slavery hath been abolished there? Whether by a general
and simultaneous
emancipation? or at different periods ? or whether by declaring all persons born after a particu-
lar period free ?
6. At what period slavery was wholly abolished? what were their numbers and
proportion to the
whites at that period ?
7. What is the condition of emancipated negroes? Is any & what,
provision made for their educa-
tion & maintenance, during infancy, or in a state of decrepitude, age, or insanity?

white persons ?

11. Does harmony in general prevail between the blacks and white citizens?
do they associate freely
together? or is there a preeminence claimed by the one, and either avowedly or tacitly admitted
by the other?
The above queries are sent to me by a gentlemen in
Virginia, whose view appears to be to assist
in removing the difficulties, which attend the question of general emancipation of slaves in that
Being desirous of collecting the best information for him, I beg leave to
submit the queries to
your consideration, asking the favour of you to furnish me, as soon as may be, with your senti-
ments on any of them which it is in your power to answer.
Boston, February 17, 1795.[Pages 2-4 contain John Eliot's letter. This page count is based on the fact that the item is a folded sheet and considers page 1 to be the printed circular. The letter begins on page 3 and finishes on page 2. Page 4 is comprised of the address and endorsement.]
I have looked over your Queries with some attention
but am unable to say, When this introduction of Negros to Mast: first
took place --
2. the African trade was carried on -- and commenced at an
period: to a small extent compared with R. Island, but it made
a considerable branch of our commerce (to judge from the number
of our still houses & Masters of vessels now living who have been in
the trade) -- It declined very little till the revolution -- Some excellent
writings were diffused previously to this & the sentiment of the people
were was against it, but the Merchants who had been engaged in the busi-
ness still continued sending their vessels for Slaves, till the trade
was prohibited by an Act of the Court 1787 --
3 -- If by European Adventurers be intended persons disconnected with
American Merchants, they were few in number. The cause of abolition of
Slaves in the State, may be traced entirely to the Sentiment of the people;
-- but of the trade -- to the Act of the Legislature.
4. Slaves were never in a state of hard bondage: It is difficult to tell
exact proportion of blacks to whites, because if we judge by the funerals, they were more
infirm & sick, & died in more than equal numbers, compared with the inhabitants.
Some persons may have proper data, to answer this query.
The 5th, 6th -- will be answered by the above &c and looking into the
acts of
the Court.
7 -- Answer -- Wretched, with a few exceptions -- but owing to
-- every encouragement is given to them to work -- A subsistence is easi-
ly obtained, & they have the same priviledges with whites from infancy
to manhood -- This includes the 8. query.
9. There is a perceptible difference; owing perhaps to their habits of Life
They have been Slaves -- Some who were born free & well educated are here
to be excepted.
10. There cannot be intermarriages by our laws -- It is very seldom
a thing has happened -- Between Blacks & Molattoes more frequent --
11. There is much harmony between Blacks & Whites. We seldom have
tentions, except in houses of ill fame, where some very depraved white fe-
males get among the blacks -- this has issued in the pulling down such houses
at times, & caused several actions at Justice Courts these two years past.
Otherwise, they do not associate -- Even religious societies, those not
public fellowship, are separate in the town of Boston -- And what is
their lodges --
The African Lodge in Boston, tho' possessing a charter from England, signed by
the Earl of Effingham, and countersigned by the Duke of Cumberland, meet by themselves,
-- and white Masons, not more skilled in Geometry than their black brethren will not
acknowledge them. The reason given is that the Blacks were made clandestinely, in the
first place, which being known would have prevented them from receiving a Charter. But
this inquiry would not have been made about White Lodges, many of which have not conform-
ed to the rules of Blacks Masonry. The truth is, They are ashamed of being on an equality
with Blacks. Even the fraternal kiss of France given to merit without distinction of colour doth not influ-
ence Massachusett Masons to give an embrace less emphatical, or tender & affectionate
to their black brethren. These, on the other hand, valuing themselves upon their knowledge
of the Craft, think themselves better Masons in other respects than the Whites, because
Masonry considers all men equal who are free; and Massachusetts laws admit of no
kind of Slavery. It is evident from this that Neither "avowedly nor tacitly do
the Blacks admit the preheminence of the Whites; But as evident that the
preheminence is claimed by the Whites.
In addition to the answer of 4th. Query -- Tho'
the Slaves were not in hard Bondage, yet
one thing implies the contrary, to our Reason & feelings. Lover & friends were separated
& their children given away with the same indifference as little Kittens & young puppies: Upon
the whole they were less favourites --

With its foundation stone laid on Anzac Day, 25 April, 1928, and built from local materials, the Freemasons Ann Street Memorial Centre is the headquarters of the craft in Queensland and a masonic memorial to those who gave their lives in the World Wars.
The grand hall, featuring original furniture from Queensland timbers - silky oak, maple and cedar, one of the State's largest pipe organs and gold leaf ceilings, is a must see. The library on the ground floor has had many books on freemasonry, some with special historical significance and the museum features a range of artefacts, some of which date from the early days of freemasonry in Queensland.


text: Ear Holed Posted on November 22, 2013 by Adam Burke Football games are as much a part of Thanksgiving as turkey, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie. In football, there's a term called getting "ear holed". For those who have never played the greatest sport in America, the best definition I can provide is as follows: Ear Holed: A player being tackled/blocked from the side, leaving ones feet and potentially losing consciousness momentarily, without warning or seeing the hit coming. If you're more visually inclined, check out this video clip. I think we can all agree no one wants to be #10 from Wisconsin in that moment. Continue reading →
