A one-page internal 63-year-old memo about a UFO report involving three alleged flying saucers and alien bodies recovered in New Mexico is making the rounds again this week. And it all started with a story that the FBI itself released.
In its own memo, titled "UFOs or No?" the FBI has informed the public that one particular memo from 1950 is the most popular file in their Vault -- an electronic reading room made available to everyone since its creation in 2011.
With nearly a million views over the past two years, the memo tells of "an unconfirmed report that the FBI never even followed up on. The file in question is a memo dated March 22, 1950 ... authored by Guy Hottel, then head of our field office in Washington, D.C. Like all memos to FBI Headquarters at that time, it was addressed to Director J. Edgar Hoover and recorded and indexed in FBI records."
The memo told a third party story of an alleged Air Force investigator who reported that three flying saucers were recovered in New Mexico.
According to the original memo and reiterated by the FBI this week, the saucers "were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only three feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed fliers and test pilots."
If this memo had already been released as part of the Vault files two years ago, why did the FBI decide to focus attention on it again this week?
A number of media stories have surfaced, claiming the Hottel memo was first released or declassified two years ago when the FBI created the Vault. This is completely untrue. Let's get the facts straight.
First, the bureau explains that this document wasn't released in 2011 -- "It was first released publicly in the late 1970s and had been posted on the FBI website for several years prior to the launch of the Vault."
Second, the Hottel memo actually was obtained in 1977 by retired U.S. Navy optical physicist Bruce Maccabee, who got it as part of 1,600 documents released to him via the Freedom of Information Act.
Also, the FBI notes that when the Vault was launched in 2011, "some media outlets noticed the Hottel memo and erroneously reported that the FBI had posted proof of a UFO crash at Roswell, New Mexico, and the recovery of wreckage and alien corpses. The resulting stories went viral, and traffic to the new Vault soared."
The bureau wants everyone to know that the memo in question was written three years after the alleged events at Roswell, with no connection between them at all.
Interestingly, right after the Vault was created and offered to the public, this reporter wrote a story about it in 2011, focusing on some evidence that had surfaced surrounding an oil scam artist who, two weeks before the Hottel memo was written, had spread stories about three crashed UFOs with aliens.
The FBI hints that some people had suggested the flying saucer-alien story was a hoax that had circulated in 1950. The bureau ends its tale saying, "Sorry, no smoking gun on UFOs. The mystery remains..."
Also on HuffPost:
Melbourne, Australia, Feb. 2013
This is a composite image of how three alleged UFOs maneuvered about in the sky over Melbourne, Australia, in early February, 2013. The final verdict isn't in yet on whether they're birds, aircraft, balloons, bugs or something truly unidentified.
These candle-lit Chinese lanterns can rise high into the sky and are often mistaken for UFOs.
Exploding Weather Balloons, Not UFOs
On Dec. 20, 2012, a bright, circular object (pictured at the top of this composite image) was videotaped exploding in the skies above Sacramento, Calif. It wasn't immediately identified, resulting in speculation that it was either an alien spacecraft, military top secret weapon, runaway planet, North Korean satellite, among others. Within a short period of time, it became apparent that this was a weather balloon. The bottom part of this image shows such a balloon as it ascended over Tampa Bay, Fla., on July 2, 2012, and exploded in an identical manner as the Sacramento object, probably much to the dismay of all true ET believers out there.
Boomerang UFO composite images -- 10-5-12
This is a composite of images shot by two eyewitnesses of a boomerang-shaped UFO they reported seeing over their Burbank, Calif., home on Oct. 5, 2012. Mutual UFO Network photo/video analyst Marc Dantonio concluded the object was likely "a balloon, floating on the wind that has collapsed in half."
Changing UFO Pattern -- Warren, Mich. 1-10-13
This four-image series of lights in the sky was recorded over Warren, Mich., on Jan. 10, 2013. The lights were seen changing into several patterns. The most logical explanation for these types of UFOs is a series of balloons or lanterns.
UFOs Over Earth
This composite image shows four different times that alleged UFO were photographed above Earth by either space shuttles or the International Space Station. The big question is whether or not they are truly unidentified objects or if they are more likely reflections from spacecraft windows, meteors or fast-moving spacecraft-generated debris.
Pink UFOs Or Lens Flares?
What appear to be pink-red UFOs are actually lens flares from the Google Earth street view camera as it snapped images in Texas (left) and New Mexico (right).
Lens flares Arizona
These two flying saucer-shaped, pink-colored lens flares were created by the Google Maps camera as it drove through locations in Sedona, Ariz. (left) and Flagstaff, Ariz. (right). The images were snapped in April 2009. Submitted to HuffPost by trenna.

Cincinnati Skydivers NOT UFOs Sept. 28, 2012
On the night of Sept. 28, 2012, a group of strange-looking lights appeared in the sky near Cincinnati, Ohio. First there was one, then, two, then three lights, slowly descending. It turns out, however, that these lights were originating from a group of skydivers performing a pyrotechnics jump at the La Salle High School homecoming event.
Weather Phenomenon
Some UFO sightings may be due to a natural phenomenon known as sprites, like this one shown from 2006. "Lightning from [a] thunderstorm excites the electric field above, producing a flash of light called a sprite," said geophysicist Colin Price.
Clouds: Saucer-shaped or "lenticular" clouds that form at high altitudes have been confused with UFOs.
Blimps or Advertising Balloons
Blimps or advertising balloons: These can look like flying saucers from some angles, especially at night.
Sunken Ship in the Baltic Sea
On June 19th the Swedish-based diving company Ocean Explorer discovered something they've never quite seen before. They were exploring in the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Finland looking for sunken treasures when a very unusual image suddenly appeared on the sonar. A 197 feet diameter cylinder shaped object was discovered at the depth of approximately 275 feet which resembles the Millennium Falcon from the movie Star Wars.
Baltic Sea UFO 1
An image released on June 15, 2012, shows a close-up view of the unidentified object sitting on the bottom of the Baltic Sea.

Antarctic UFO -- Aug. 10, 2012

Manufactured UFO -- 2011
Pictured is a quad copter -- a deliberately manufactured UFO created by special effects wizard Marc Dantonio for a National Geographic special, "The Truth Behind: UFOs," which aired in December 2011. On the left is what the small device looks like resting on the ground, measuring 4 feet in circumference. At right, is how it appeared behind a tree in the night sky.
Police Dashboard Camera In Texas
In February of 2012, this fireball was captured by a Texas police chief's A dashboard camera. F.A.A. say this was probably a meteor, falling to Earth. .
Meteors: Space debris can create a spectacular light show when it burns through the Earth's atmosphere, and sometimes reported as UFOs.
Civilian or Military Aircraft
Civilian or military aircraft: Planes can look mysterious at night or in certain light conditions, thus confusing an observer.

Thomas Bradshaw's Job, Adaptation of the Book of Job, Opens Sept. 19 at NYC's Flea Theater; Limited Run Extends
By Michael Gioia
The New York premiere of Thomas Bradshaw's Job, a play that explores faith, officially opens Sept. 19, following previews that began Aug. 31, at The Flea Theater in Tribeca.
Directed by Flea resident director Benjamin Kamine, the extended engagement continues through Nov. 3 and features members of the Flea's resident acting ensemble, The Bats. Performances were originally scheduled through Oct. 7.
The Bats, who have recently appeared in world premieres by A.R. Gurney, Will Eno, Adam Rapp and more, include Bradley Anderson, Mimi Augustin, Jaspal Binning, Ugo Chukwu, Alex Coelho, Timothy Craig, Jimmy Dailey, Edgar Eguia, Eric Folks, Cleo Gray, Grant Harrison, Layla Khosnoudi, Adam Lebowitz-Lockard, Abraham Makany, Sean McIntyre, Chester Poon, Ivano Pulito, Marie-Claire Roussel, Stephen Stout and Jennifer Tsay.
In Job, according to the Flea, "Thomas Bradshaw takes on a sacred biblical text to explore issues of faith. How low will God go? Bradshaw calls his play an honest, un-cynical adaptation of the book of Job."
Other members of the creative team include set designer Aaron Green, lighting designer Jonathan Cottle, costume designer Ashley Farra, sound designer Jeremy Bloom and production stage manager Courtney Ulrich.
Playwright Bradshaw's most recent work, Burning, was seen at the New Group in New York, and in 2011 the Goodman Theater produced his play Mary. His other works include The Bereaved, Southern Promises, Dawn and Cleansed, among others.

So we, my spine surgeon and I, have decided not to pursue c-spine surgery, he said he would probably have to fuse C2/3-C8 if he does go in. I have already had surgery, 3, on my lumbar spine. Still experiencing a lot of pain in the low back, surgeries not so much a success. So we are wait and see. I have worsening symptoms in my hands and I have been having the worse head sweating ever. I cannot control it and sweat just pours off my head, really uncomfortable and embarrassing and over the summer I don't go anywhere due to this condition. I have it in winter but obviously not quite to the extent that I have this in summer.
I am 56 and on HRT since having total hysterectomy in the 1980's. So it's not that. I do take pain medications for my arthritis and fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel (2 surgeries on that-no good either. My knees are the latest dx.
My sister, who just last week had fusion at C 6-7, also complains about this and she is the one who told me that her doc said it is from the nerve damage in the C-spine area.
My question: Is this true, can C-spine OA cause this? What is the mechanism here? I have seen little about this in the journal articles I have read. Would appreciate discussion and any input into this problem.
I just bet the Botox will stop the headaches and the sweating. I wish I could call right now and get an appointment.
I will keep you updated.
It is just horrible, sweat dripping everywhere. Just happened to me today grocery shopping, about 3/4 of the way through the store and just pouring off my head all this sweat. It really looked like someone threw water all over my head. It lasted about 1/2 hour and did not stop when I went outside the store in 60 degree weather. But my headaches have been getting much, much worse the current one is since the beginning of the month, I am just barely staying ahead of it with pain meds, barely.
I have an appointment for next week but this is just for the initial workup because it's been a while since I was there. He is a good doctor and they schedule treatments pretty quickly after the workup. I hope the insurance company comes back with a quick enough approval on the Botox injections. It is a pre-approval thing. Anyway, it will stop most of the neck pain, head pain and probably this sweating thing. I will let you know what he says about it. I did look at some of the information online regarding the nerves responsible for it and the Botox should help with it.
Anyone with OA in the neck probably has severe enough muscle spasms as I did and Botox can be used for that.
This is definitely not female hormone related. This is much, much more profuse and is only the head my arm pits are bone dry when this occurs. Not even sweating on my chest, it's just the head. Of course after several minutes I do begin to sweat in other areas due to the sheer embarrassment of it all. I skipped the Pumpkin Patch last week with my grandkids due to it. I just could not bring myself to go. When something affects me this much it's bad, very bad. I hate missing fun with the kids. I don't get out much these days and it's not healthy for us to do this. I spent an hour crying, sobbing and of course sweating from my head because I had to say no. It has to end and I will do anything to stop it.
So I go back to be poked and prodded with needles, medications, anything is better than this.
I will figure this out and share the outcome.
I have just gone through a major crisis, averted a diagnosis of lymphoma. Through this, lots of blood work, 2 neck surgeries and CT scans, thyroid cancer test, thyroid numbers everything has been poked and proded. I have "craniofacial hyperhydrosis"of no known cause. The only anomoly for me is the severe osteoarthritis of the c-spine, my discs are herniating in my neck, there is central canal stenosis and the sweating continues.
It is only my head that pours sweat, I am not talking beads of sweat I am talking about sweat that pours off my head onto me, the table, my grandkids. It's disgusting. Rivlets of sweat pouring down while I eat or watch tv or shop for food or do anything. I cannot make it stop. Also I have the sensaton of things walking on my head, feels like bugs walking around the scalp. Nothing is there it's a most annoying feeling. I get those nerve twinges on my head, twiches I guess you would call it. It drives me nuts.
Horminal? That stopped a long time ago. That is a catch all, doctors throw lots of stuff in that category. I wish doctors were made to suffer some of the things that we suffer, hormonal.
I am going to make an appointment with my neurosrgeon to see what he thinks. He is a good doctor and he is very sympathetic.

text: To test our voice conversion algorithm, we administered a speaker identification test to twelve randomly selected people. Prior to the experiment, we recorded speech samples from four different speakers (two male and two female) and used our algorithm to convert between various combinations of their voices. For example, we took the sound of speaker #1 (the "source speaker") saying a certain phrase and converted it to the voice of speaker #2 (the "target speaker"). The participants listened to a series of these synthesized sounds, and we asked them to identify the speaker (the target) as well as the speaker's gender.

To the editor:
On the morning of Saturday, Oct. 5, members of the Rockport Conservation Commission and area neighbors cut back trails and cleared litter from the conservation land located at the top of Pigeon Hill Street and near Johnson Road.
The Rockport DPW had recently cleared old materials and made a small parking area in front of the work shed at the property entrance. The land is 5.8 acres and was previously owned by the family of Stephen Johnson. It was purchased by the Commission with Community Preservation Act funds.
The trails are open to the public for walking. They pass between small quarries and across granite grout piles.
The parcels that surround this site are privately owned and require permission to enter them. Thank you to all who helped with the improvements to this site.
Chairman, Rockport Conservation Commission

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
A Laurel man charged with beating, stabbing and then shooting his elderly grandmother is set for a jury trial this spring.
Jeremy Owens, 33, is charged with the July 27, 2011 murder of his 74-year-old grandmother, Bernice Champlin. His trial is set for April 19.
Laurel County Sheriff's deputies were called to the scene of a domestic dispute on Queen Road in the Lily community. While en route to the scene, however, they received another call that a shooting had taken place.
On arrival at the residence just off Slate Ridge Road, police were informed the shooter — Jeremy Owens — was still inside the home and was refusing to come out. Cautiously posted around the premises, deputies and detectives waited while Sheriff John Root called Owens' cell phone number provided by one of the family members and tried to talk him into surrendering. After nearly 10 minutes of talking, Owens agreed and was taken into custody without further incident.
Inside the house was a different matter.
Champlin's body lay in the hallway of the home that she shared with the grandson who had just taken her life. She was bruised and bleeding from wounds from the beating, stabbing and shooting. A knife and a pistol lay nearby, although autopsy reports indicated that the gunshot wound to her head is what ended her life.
Owens has been held in the Laurel County Detention Center since his arrest under a $250,000 bond.

Henderson Ski Vacation Rentals(15)

Special Offer! Summer special $150 per Night August 1 - December 1
Recent Henderson Reviews
This house was more than I could have EVER hoped for! A group of friends and I (10 people) traveled from New York and instead of squishing into 2 hotel rooms - we found this gem. It was exactly as pictured, immaculate, and well stocked with towels/toiletries/even normal kitchen pantry items. Our cousins live in Henderson, a short 5 minute drive from this home, and it was super convenient traveling back and forth. Everyone found something to do without bothering others - whether it was lounging poolside, napping, playing pool, or gathering around the big screen downstairs for the World Cup USA game. It was nice to be away from the busy/noisey strip but still able to get there in a short 15-20 minute ride. If you're looking for a relaxing, cozy stay that's still near the hussle and bussle - this is the place for you. Plus, the nearby WinCo has the greatest candy isle we've ever seen :)
This house is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood near the Sunset Station casino. The house is spacious, open, and very nice. It has the amenities you need such as a coffee maker (espresso too), ironing board, and iron. There are some extra games for when you have downtime. The pool and covered patio were favorites for our kids. An added bonus was that we flipped through the channels on Sunday night, and found out that the house had HBO, so we were able to see the season finale of Game of Thrones. We were visiting family in Henderson, so it was perfect for us. It's great as a home base for a Vegas visit.
We had a very great stay, the house was very clean and well maintained. The beds were like sleeping on clouds. The house held very high stanard. The pool is heated by solar power only and might not be as warm as you like if it's cold outside. The area was quiet, just minutes from great shopping and casinos. Downtown Las Vegas is about 10min by car, and other attractions like: Red Rock Canyon, Lake Mead, Hoover Dam are also close by.

MOORE — Growth in the local business population over the course of last year has propelled Moore forward in sales tax revenues and the city continues on an upward trend.
Moore sales tax for October was $1.8 million, up 5.06 percent over October receipts last year. Moore is ahead 7.23 percent for the fiscal year.
Moore collected $21 million in FY 2012.
"We had 5.5 percent growth over the prior year," Moore Finance Director Jim Corbett said of FY 2012 which ended June 30.
Moore had predicted 5 percent growth for last year and another 5 percent this year.
Dick's Sporting Goods is under construction, expected to open soon. Other money makers for Moore have been the IMAX Theater and Target, but Corbett said several smaller business also contributed to the expanding tax base.
In addition, Corbett said several smaller businesses that recently opened will be contributing a full year of sales tax in FY2013.
In Norman, tax revenue is running behind budget predictions, despite that sales tax collections for FY 2013 are up from last year. Norman received $5.3 million on Oct. 9. Of that amount, $756,668 were directed to the Public Safety Sales Tax fund.
This year, Norman Finance Director Anthony Francisco and his team budgeted for a 4.2 percent increase.
Despite Francisco's caution, tax collections have run below budget for the third month in a row. This year's receipts were $31,683 or 3.17 percent above last years receipts.

Local experts say a new tax incentive for home buyers is pulling the Wichita housing market out of a slump.
The program went into effect in Wichita in February. So far 233 new home buyers have taken advantage, as the first 1,000 buyers will receive a five year rebate on city property taxes. The Wichita Area Builders Association says it's working.
"Buyers are having a renewed sense of confidence that even though the market hasn't improved, it is beginning to take hold," said WABA President Wess Galyon.
Brian and Kristina Clevenger just built their dream home in northwest Wichita. They say they will save $1,200 a year with the incentive program.
"It was icing on the cake," said Kristina Clevenger. "It makes us get that money back to buy something for the new house, a piece of furniture or something."
WABA says if the trend continues Wichita will see new homes sales rise by up to 50% by the end of the year.
For more information on the tax incentive, contact the Wichita Area Builders Association at (316) 265-4226.

Third Party Manufacturers / Re: Nikon drops sales forecast as high-end camera market stalls« on: November 07, 2013, 04:48:28 PM »
...saying overseas demand for pricy single-lens reflex models had remained depressed...
So which one is the following is true?
- Their R&D (esp. the Df team) and Sales are not communicating
- Non-overseas (Japan local) market is different
- They think USD 2650 is not pricey for their target customer
- Somehow they think the Df is not the average Joe's DSLR
- They don't care about the dropped demand
- All of the above
- None of the above

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
It's Living Treasures time and once again I have had a few beautiful days getting to hear the life stories of four Laurel Countians who have lived long and well. It's my third year with the oral history project and, consequently, each spring I've gotten to speak to incredible people who have taught me as much about life as about Laurel County.
This year, I am once again amazed by the recurring themes that have surfaced in the stories of this year's nominees — Finley Baker, Bill Brooks, Beulah Cassidy and Billie Ridings — despite the fact they are so vastly different. And once again I realize that by focusing on these themes, you truly have the recipe for how to be a good person, live a good life, and be truly cherished by your family and friends. They're worth considering.
First off, every Living Treasure I've spoken to has worked hard in their life. I mean really hard, 14-hour days hard. Whether that means being a mother to four children, tending the family home, garden and fields, selling eggs for extra money and sewing dresses out of feed sacks, as in the case of Mrs. Cassidy. Whether that means getting a paper route at age 14, saving up for a bicycle for nearly a year, scrapping the funds together to make it through college, and then helping grow a new bakery business into one of the largest in Laurel County, as in the case of Mr. Brooks.
These people started working young, kept at it and, most especially, didn't complain. Moreover, they got satisfaction out of their work. In fact, every Treasure I've spoken to is an early riser. As Finley Baker put it: "I don't like to lay in the bed. When it goes getting daylight, I get up."
Second, all of the Treasures are active, both physically and mentally. Mr. Baker, who is 88, even showed me how he uses the treadmill he has in his bedroom. Billie Ridings tries to walk 2.5 miles each day and, if she misses a day, she'll double or even triple up on another to get those miles in. Especially in this day and age of fast food and supreme obesity, I'd say that discipline is a lesson a lot of us have to learn.
And, perhaps because of their work ethic, they didn't stop being active even when their children were grown or they retired from their careers. That can mean a staggering amount of volunteer work. It can mean lending their expertise or offering advice. But always these people stay engaged, interested, willing to help, and that's how they truly have become elders in the community.
Over the past three years, every Treasure I have spoken to has told me, plainly, they love and have lived a happy life with their spouse. These stories of romance have people telling me in detail about their wedding day, their wedding dress, their honeymoon, the way they first met that person.
But these marriages, many of them 50 and 60 years old, somehow they are uncomplicated, just beautiful in their simplicity. These people just seem to fit with their spouse, and I suspect it's not just time that has made that happen. Many of these people knew their spouse far less than a year, some as little as four months, before they decided, yes, this is the one. And once they made that decision, it's like there was a simple, solid acceptance from the beginning that the union would always remain.
And how those unions worked so seamlessly, I don't quite know yet. I've asked almost all the Treasures and they just shrug and say, "Well, we just got along." Part of it seems to do with the fact both parts of the couple were happy independently and not too needy of the other. The fact they had this other person to lean on just sweetened the deal. And I suspect part of it has to do with expectations. In their day and age, a spouse wasn't someone from whom you relied on solely to create meaning, happiness, fireworks, completion. Probably, we can learn from that too.
Finally, each and every last one of the Treasures grew up on beans and taters. When asked what they ate growing up, that is always, without variation, the answer. And when their children are there during the interview, they laugh and say they grew up on beans and taters too. I love this, for some reason, as I agonize each night what to make for dinner. What another lesson to learn.
And so there you have it: the recipe that actually ends with food. I, for one, hope to follow it.

Sami Salo set to return, who gets traded?

Sami Salo is back, well, almost. He's been skating for a long time now, and has been practicing and traveling with the team for a couple of weeks also. So when is he set to return? The Canucks are keeping this somewhat secretive, but it looks to be soon. The reason is of course the salary cap. The Canucks are very close to the cap right now and will be over it when Salo returns. According to CapGeek, the Canucks would need to get rid of $1.8 million of annual salary if Salo returned today.

Coat drive helps local people in need stay warm
Warming Communities…One Coat at a Time
Bensalem, PA, November 13, 2012 -- The need has never been greater and it's never been easier to make a difference in your community. Here is your opportunity to make sure that nobody goes without such a basic necessity as a coat this winter.
Energy Concepts is collecting clean, gently used coats and jackets as part of the One Warm Coat community service project. Coats of all shapes sizes are welcome. One Warm Coat is dedicated to distributing reusable coats, free of charge, directly to local children and adults. The program is an easy way for you and your family to pass along coats and jackets that you no longer need.
Energy Concepts has made donating a coat simple. Just bring your clean, gently used coats and jackets to 2136 Bristol Pike in Bensalem from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, or give them to your oil delivery driver or service technician. Then Energy Concepts will take care of the rest. All donated coats will be given to the United Way of Bucks County for distribution to local people in need.
"More people than ever need help these days. I am proud of the thousands of coat drive organizers whose creativity and generosity of spirit are making a real difference in their own communities." commented Sherri Wood, President and National Coordinator for One Warm Coat.
One Warm Coat is national non-profit organization that supports and encourages coat drives. It helps individuals, groups, companies and organizations across the country collect coats and deliver them to local agencies that distribute the coats free to people in need. More than one million coats have been provided to those in need at no cost since its inception in 1992.

Chung Moo Rollrice and Dongas - Oh My! The Bibim Naeng Myun!
Today, I experienced an orgasmic bowl of bibim naeng myun at Chung Moo Rollrice & Dongas.
Bibim naeng myun is the brothless and spicy version of mool naeng myun and I cannot believe that I had remained a virgin for so long. The massive portion ($7) could have easily fed two, though I swallowed the whole thing and was unpleasantly full. It was almost as perfect as a bowl of cold noodles could be. The kelp colored dark noodles are topped with a spicy paste, egg, cucumber, cabbage and sesame seed. Mix it well and you'll experience the chewy slipperiness of the mildly spicy noodles, the crunch of the refreshing vegetables and the haunting accent of the toasted sesame. It really is like a beautiful chamber orchestra in your mouth. I like it a little rougher so I added some chili powder and was in bliss.
Evidently, everyone could tell what state I was in. Sidewalkers did double takes. One woman stopped dead in her track and stared blatantly for several moments at the beautiful noodles. Even the man who had so self-assuredly ordered the sundae looked doubtful about his choice. A rarefied lady of impeccable taste whispered a question to the old proprietress. To which she responded with a proud grin: bibim. naeng. myun.
sounds great; thanks. this is on the mini-strip btwn northern towards roosevelt? have you also eaten at the chinese-korean which sells steamed buns in the front window? apparently very good; we've had the buns and they were really good.
at first i thought oyour title referred to Chung Moo Ro in manhattan's k-town which used to have a nice naeng-myun but last couple times i went, it was bad.
thanks! and soondae is the bomb, sounds like a good two-fer.
re: bigjeff
Those buns look enticing, but I have not tried them. Next time.
CMRAD seems to mostly make kimbap (rollrice), deep-fried battered veggies and mandoo (including kimchi). Most of the takeout orders are for these items. I've heard the sundae is pretty good. Let us know if you try it.

re: Joe MacBu
ok here goes
Bibim naeng myun was off the wall delicious...really..
it was perfection
i too had people staring at me in bewilderment, i had the biggest smile on my face.
dongas are pork cutlets, thats all she told me, she was busy.
there dumplings on the trays looked soooo good but i was stuffed, next time i will be getting food for the family including dumplings, rollrice, noodles and soon dae
tyvm joe for the rec.
re: bigjeff
Bibim Nang Myun was extremely sweet and had no heat. I wanted to tell the sweet hal-muh-ni that she should cut the sugar in half and it would be sweet enough. Noodles lacked the chewy (jolgi jolgi) texture. Overcooked.
What's really good here for me was the O-Deng soup and dukkbokki together. O-Deng took me right back to my childhood in Korea. I miss my ice skates and mana chek.

Ohio man charged in courthouse bomb threat probe
Mar 21, 2013
By The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — An Ohio man charged in the investigation into dozens of bomb threats made to courthouses and other public buildings in five states late last year waived a bond hearing Thursday and was ordered locked up.
The FBI arrested 39-year-old Lonny Bristow of Mansfield on Wednesday in the Mansfield area.
One of those bomb threats was called into Yamhill County Clerk's office the afternoon of November 23rd, 2012 resulting in the evacuation of all county buildings for 45 minutes as they were searched for potential threats.
Nothing suspicious was found.
He had an initial court appearance Thursday in U.S. District Court in Cleveland and waived a bond hearing. Bristow agreed to be held without bond while his case is pending, his public defender, Carolyn Kucharski, said in an email.
Bristow was initially charged with a single count of making a bomb threat by phone.
The FBI said Bristow was arrested in the investigation of bomb threats made in November and December to courthouses and public buildings in Nebraska, Washington, Oregon, Tennessee and Mississippi.
There was no immediate indication of a possible motive.
An FBI agent's affidavit filed with the court said investigators traced numerous bomb threats to prepaid phone cards purchased at a Wal-Mart in Upper Sandusky, located about 40 miles west of Mansfield.
Agents searched Bristow's residence and seized computers, bank cards, weapons and ammunition, the FBI said.
The Mansfield News Journal reported that in 1997 Bristow was labeled a "vexatious litigator." Since 1993, Bristow filed at least 137 lawsuits, targeting law enforcement personnel, judges, media outlets and others.
Although the lawsuits were usually tossed out of court, they added up to thousands of dollars in attorney fees, the newspaper reported.
The paper also reported that Bristow also was the first inmate in Ohio to have his mail privileges revoked. He received a 13-year prison sentence for theft, retaliation, aiding an escape, harassment by an inmate and telephone harassment.
Stephen Anthony, head of the FBI in northern Ohio, said the bomb threats had induced panic for hundreds of people. He called the threats "reckless and malicious."
Kucharski limited her comments to detailing the initial court proceeding and wouldn't comment further.

Police: Woman charged in knife assaultJanuary 18,2013MANCHESTER A Virgil Road woman was charged with a felony count of domestic assault on Thursday after police said she had charged another woman with a knife during an argument Tuesday even though a 2-year-old child was between her and the other woman.
Annette Crooks, 38, of Manchester, pleaded innocent in Bennington criminal court Thursday to a felony charge of first-degree aggravated domestic assault and a misdemeanor charge of reckless endangerment.
In an affidavit, Cpl. James Blanchard of the Manchester Police Department said he had been called to a Virgil Road home on Tuesday around 5 p.m. Blanchard said he spoke with a woman who told him that Crooks had come after her with a knife during an argument.
The woman said her 2-year-old was between her and Crooks at the time. Blanchard said Crooks admitted to having the knife during the argument with the woman but denied the child was between them.Crooks said she was angry at the other woman because she made a comment to her about an abortion.

Reserves Policy
Instructors are encouraged to place books, chapters, test examples, and other study materials on reserve at the Circulation Desk. Loan periods for reserve materials vary from two hours to three days. Student should return reserve materials directly to the Reserve Desk to avoid fines. During the last two weeks of the semester, all reserve materials are placed on two hour reserve and are restricted to use within the building, to give all students the opportunity to complete their assigned readings. The library has reserve policies for faculty submitting and students using library reserves.
For Print Reserves:
- Only materials (books, pamphlets, etc.) which are designed and required in course work should be placed on Reserve. There are limitations on Reserve shelving space, therefore there is a limit of 50 items for any one course.
- The list of reserve items must be submitted on the Reserve Request form. The form can be picked up at the Circulation Desk or downloaded from our web site.
- Personal books may be placed on Reserve, but the library is not responsible for loss or theft.
- Material borrowed through Interlibrary Loan from another library may not be placed on Reserve.
- If material requested for Reserve is housed in one of the other libraries or branches, e.g. Math, Architecture, etc., a notation will be placed on the course list advising that the material is available at that location.
- Non-book materials (Pamphlets, reprints, etc.) must be forwarded to the Library in suitable binding with the course number, title, and the instructor's name clearly indicated on the cover.
- Materials may be kept on Reserve only for the duration of the specific course for which they are required, and they will not be allowed to remain semester after semester.
- It is the responsibility of the faculty member to oversee the placement of electronic reserve items on the Blackboard course management system. The staff of the Innovative Learning Center, located on the third floor of the library, can assist faculty in scanning and formatting documents to place on Blackboard. They can be reached at 862-8594.
Reserve Processing Time Standards
Print Reserves
Print Reserve items will be available within 48 hours of submission. For more information, see Putting Items on Reserve.
Electronic Reserves
Faculty members should scan their own materials for placement on the Blackboard system. If any faculty members require assistance, please see the Innovative Learning Center on the third floor of the library. Please remember that the beginning of the semester is a busy time, so allow enough time to scan and post your articles.
Copyright Restrictions
Print Reserves
Only a single copy of copyrighted material will be accepted for Reserve. The instructor will be responsible for providing the copy and it must contain on the face the copyright statement: NOTICE:This material may be protected by Copyright Law (Title 17 U.S. Code) Continued use of such a copy for Reserve (for more than one semester) will not be permitted. Photocopied material will automatically be withdrawn from Reserve and returned to the instructor at the end of each academic semester.
Electronic Reserves
Materials protected under federal copyright law may remain on the Electronic Reserve System for one semester. If materials are needed for more than one consecutive semester, copyright permission must be obtained from the publisher. It is the responsibility of the faculty member to obtain copyright permission. A copyright notice will be displayed on each course web page.
General Reserve Rules
Books can be placed on 3-day, 1-day, or strict reserve as directed by the instructor. During the final examination period each semester, all books on Reserve become strict 2-hour books.
All books borrowed from Reserve Desk must be returned directly to the Circulation Desk. If books are left on study tables or dropped in the outside or main circulation book bin, the student will be responsible for all fines incurred before the books are returned to the Circulation Desk.
3-Day & 1-Day Reserves
Books in this category may be taken out of the library for the number of days indicated and are due at any time on the due date.
Fines are $.60 per day until the book is returned or until a maximum of $20.00 is reached.
Strict Reserves
Books in this category cannot be checked out to be taken out of the building, and have a strict 2-hour time limit. Fines are $1.00 per hour until the book is returned or until a maximum of $20.00 is reached.
1-day and 3-day reserves cannot be renewed. Strict 2-hour reserves may be renewed only twice.
3 Day & 1 Day Media
Media may be taken out of the library for the number of days indicated and are due any time on the date due. Fines are $1.00 per day until the media is returned or until a maximum of $20.00 is reached.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Bâtard Montrachet is a full bodied wine, rich and powerful. It stuns the drinker with intense flavor of almonds, ripe apple, white flowers, honey and spices. In addition, the length in the mouth is remarkable.
Batard Montrachet is the perfect partner for elegant dining: foie gras,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Bienvenues Batard Montrachet Grand Cru 2011 is a full bodied wine, rich and powerful, with intense flavor, great structure and very long finish. The acidity is nicely balanced with the mellowness of this exquisite wine. Astonishing aromas from fruits to flowers, mushrooms and spices.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Soft wood frames exuberantly fresh and expressive aromas of green fruit, green apple and pungent stone notes. There is outstanding volume and plenty of raw power to the tautly muscled large-scaled flavors that terminate in a focused, driving and wonderfully persistent finish. This is a big wine..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "There is ample wood to the ripe, expressive and solidly complex nose of honeysuckle, pear, white peach and discreet spice nuances. The medium-bodied flavors possess a sophisticated mouth feel and plenty of palate coating dry extract before culminating in a wonderfully long finish. The complexity..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 1996 Dom Perignon OEenotheque offers up layers of pastry, lemon, smoke and toastiness. At first deceptively understated, the wine turns positively explosive and layered on the palate, showing remarkable tension, elegance and power, all wrapped around a seriously intense frame. The balance..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "There is enough reduction present to push the fruit to the background though it does appear to be ripe. There is excellent intensity to the rich, full-bodied and highly energetic flavors that tighten up considerably on the detailed, minerally and relatively dry finish that displays distinct saline..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Here the wood treatment is markedly less obvious with its slightly more complex aromas of white flowers, pear, spice elements and background hints of citrus zest. There is excellent richness and power to the big-bodied, concentrated and energetic flavors that possess plenty of mouth coating dry..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Notes of honeysuckle, freshly sliced lemon, spice, pear and white peach are trimmed in soft wood nuances. There is superb mid-palate concentration and seemingly endless reserves of dry extract that completely stain the palate on the wonderfully textured medium full-bodied flavors that possess..
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Les Demoiselles is a truly elegant wine of exceptional grace and class. Its bright, golden colour and penetrating fragrance of toast and honey predict the rich, mellow fruit flavours, velvety elegance and intense finish of this refined wine.

Women's Lacrosse Falls In NEWMAC Championship
NORTON, Mass.
, April 28, 2003 --Wheaton College took an early 3-0 lead in the opening 12 minutes of play and won its first New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Championship with a 10-7 victory over Springfield College Monday at Keefe Field.
Wheaton avenged last year's conference championship game loss to the Pride and advances to the NCAA Division III Tournament for the first time since 1986.
Junior Lauren Maynes triggered Wheaton's offensive attack with the game's first two scores. Sophomore Caddie Jackson added a free position goal at the twelve-minute mark to extend the Lyon advantage to 3-0.
SC slowly cut into the deficit, as freshman attack
Holly Carmody (Wayland, Mass.)
tallied two of the Pride's goals in the half. The visitors got as close as 4-3 with just under three minutes remaining in the stanza, but Pisano scored an unassisted goal with 12 ticks on the clock to give Wheaton a 5-3 lead heading into the break.
In the second half, the Pride again trimmed the deficit to a single goal, as freshman
Erin Looney (West Springfield, Mass.)
found junior
Brooke Newman (Coram, N.Y.)
right in front of the net just three minutes into the period. Newman collected the high pass and directed her shot into the bottom left corner of the net. That's as close as Springfield would get, however, as the Lyons put together a string of three consecutive goals.
The Pride's
Victoria Valenti (Higganum, Conn.)
came back to tally two straight goals and cut the margin to 8-6, but Maynes responded with two consecutive scores of her own to push the lead back to four goals.
Carmody and Valenti led Springfield with two goals each, while Newman contributed a goal and an assist in the loss. Senior goalie
Emily Boosahda (Bass River, Mass)
made eight saves for Springfield.

By Andra Bryan Stefanoni
GALENA, Kan. —
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants a wish somewhere in the country every 38 minutes. At 3 p.m. Wednesday, Andy Shepherd's came true in Galena.
The 14-year-old sixth-grader from Joplin, Mo., has had induced cerebral palsy since he was shaken as a baby.
"He has severe learning delays and in December was declared legally blind," said his grandmother, Linda Shepherd, a retired Joplin teacher. Andy and his father, Larry, live with her, and she has helped provide for his care since he was a toddler.
"He is very happy and outgoing and loves everybody," she said. "He's mostly a normal little boy."
Normal except that doctors told the family that Andy likely would never progress beyond the cognitive abilities of a 3-year-old, and he likely would have no mobility and would need a wheelchair.
"But his evaluation in December showed he's reached an 8-year-old's development," his grandmother said proudly. "And he's able to walk on his own using forearm crutches now. He has far exceeded everything they said."
It hasn't been easy. Andy has had two major surgeries — hip reconstruction and a selective dorsal rhizotomy on his vertebrae — and intensive pediatric therapy.
"My hope with this was to just make him happy," his grandmother said. "He just wants to be a regular little boy."
She turned to the Make-A-Wish Foundation for help. A team of about 25,000 volunteers helps Make-A-Wish grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to give them hope, strength and joy.
"It's not a last wish — it's a wish to encourage them to keep them going," said Southwest Missouri volunteer Marla Gourley, of Galena. "Especially if they have something not life-threatening. For example, cancers are life-threatening, but there is hope."
Gourley, 40, was diagnosed with uterine cancer when she was in her early 30s and recently began using crutches after a torn hip ligament. She said she understands what a person goes through when faced with physical and emotional challenges.
"It was a thing that drew my attention really quick," Gourley said. "It's a touching area to my heart all the way around."
Andy, a fan of Pixar's "Cars" movie, expressed a wish that especially touched a nerve with Gourley: He wanted to see one of his favorite characters, Tow Mater, in real life, drive along Route 66 and visit Cars Land at Disneyland in California.
"I live here and take for granted that street," Gourley said of Route 66 in Galena. "But here he is, and all he wants to do is be on Route 66 and go to California. That's getting emotional."
Gourley put out requests for help from fellow Galena residents, all of whom said they were happy to comply. Police Chief Larry Delmont and Cherokee County Sheriff David Groves agreed to escort Andy and his family into town on Route 66 from the Missouri state line, and they did so with lights on the patrol cars flashing.
Renee Charles and Melba Rigg, sisters who own Four Women on the Route, arranged for Andy to see Tow Tater, the old rusty tow truck parked outside the restored service station. The local icon was the inspiration for the Pixar movie character Tow Mater, but it cannot go by that name because of copyright rules.
Mike Wallis, the voice of Sheriff in "Cars" and an active Route 66 historian and advocate, sent his autograph, which Gourley presented to Andy upon his arrival Wednesday afternoon. Mayor Dale Oglesby presented Andy with a silver badge that read "Official Route 66 Tourist," and a Route 66-themed key that he said belonged to Tow Tater.
Danny and Kathy Anderson, who own the Streetcar Station on Main Street, agreed to host a small Lightning McQueen-inspired party that Gourley put together, and the Galena Dairy Queen contributed a custom-made "Cars" ice cream cake bearing the message, "Have a great adventure, Andy!"
The youngster then headed a few doors north to LaTurner Barbershop, where Bob LaTurner gave him an official Route 66 haircut — a flattop — and helped him add his signature to his wall, a tradition for visitors from as far away as Spain.
"It's something we felt was really important for him," Gourley said. "He's been through a lot since he was born. We wanted to try to make it like he's a king."
This morning, Andy, his grandmother, his father and his cousin Julie Shepherd, a senior at College Heights Christian School in Joplin, are headed to Kansas City to catch a 10:30 a.m. flight to Cars Land. They'll get to spend several days there seeing sights that Andy already has marked on a brochure for the theme park.
During the festivities, Andy gave a big smile and nods of approval at all the attention and the special "Cars" memorabilia he was given. He was slightly disappointed that he couldn't take Tow Tater with him, teasing Rigg that he wanted to own it.
Gourley said she thought the effort — her first as a Make-A-Wish volunteer — was worth it when she saw his smile.
"We do some amazing stuff in these small towns," said Oglesby, the mayor. "It's really neat to get to do stuff like this."
226,000 wishes
SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 1980, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted more than 226,000 wishes, with nearly 14,000 of them granted last year.

|spit and polish
|informal punctilious attention to neatness, discipline, etc, esp in the armed forces
spit and polish
Close attention to appearance and order, as in With a little spit and polish this house will sell very quickly. This expression originated in the military, presumably alluding to literally shining up something with the aid of a little saliva. There it also came to mean "too much attention to appearance, and not enough to more important concerns," as in The commander is so concerned with spit and polish that he overlooks the crew's morale.
