Good places for crabs in NYC?
Maryland-style crabs are steamed and we usually call it a "crab feast". For some reason, Back Forty and others call it a "crab boil" but boiling crabs is a Gulf coast thing I think. Definitely not Chesapeake. Anyway, you might want to look into this event next month- http://hammerandclaws.com/ .

re: Silverjay
Went to Hammers and Claws in September of 2012 and it was...off the hook amazing! Totally legit Maryland style crab feast (steamed crabs, not a frickin' boil). Impressively for an event of that size, the crabs were for the most part medium jimmies, some on the big side even. All you can drink Abita beer, though not sure why they partner with a LA beer instead of something from MD like Heavy Seas? But anyway, long picnic tables, butcher paper, the works. So many people don't know what they are doing, so you don't really have to worry about crowds plowing through the crabs. Enough for everyone.
It was a well-coordinated event. Went with friends to Smorgusburg, Big Apple BBQ, Delany's brisket events, some Thrillist stuff, other get-togethers, and this was hands down the best time we had at a group outing last year. This type of thing is not for everyone, but if you're from DelMarVa environs, highly recommended. Already lining up a crew for this year's event.
re: Silverjay
Luke's lobster in east village has an amazing lobster salad! and crab one, too. But there's one huge shortcoming: it's too pricey for that portion (in other words, too small portion for that price). Guys need to grab at least two of those.

re: loratliff
re: DrGaellon
The prices have dipped all throughout New England. The Maine appellation is a bit of a marketing term, I could serve you a Long Island Sound Lobster and a Maine one and you would not be able to tell the difference. Lobsters are not oysters, the environment doesn't play as big of a role
re: DrGaellon
Also places like Luke's deal only with claws and knuckles. You can't ship down live parts of animals. So their spin makes no sense. I would guess the claws/knuckles are steamed before they are sent down to NYC. If not raw body parts are sent down anyway and are dealt with in the same way.
This might interest you:
We are crustacean lovers here at the Mermaid & summer is our favorite time because of our Crab Boils on Tuesday!
Swim in tonight for buckets of blue crabs, corn, potatoes and corn bread for $24.
Hey, why not throw in a dozen oysters. Crabs + Oysters = Tasty Tuesday.
I think you have to slog out to Sheepshead or the Shore. I've done Mermaid Inn's "boil" and been to Back Forty and it doesn't stack up to Clemente's. In fact the crabs at Mermaid were horrendously small, watery and null of lump crabmeat. But I'm always open to trying something new and will definitely check out Hammer and Claws.

STAUNTON -- Thirty neighbors met on Monday night to learn how rezoning could impact their neighborhoods.
Amy Arnold, the city's planner, said listening to neighbors' opinions will shape the future of zoning in the city.
"People had really good questions. We were able to get into the level of detail that will really help people make a choice about if they want their property rezoned or if they don't," said Arnold.
Planning department employees are working to improve neighborhoods through rezoning. Some houses in the city are zoned as businesses and that makes it difficult for neighbors to remodel or renovate their homes. Planning department employees helped neighbors find their home and what it's zoned for.
A city council public hearing will be held in April before a final decision on zoning is made.

Curtis, a sport management major, is a native of Princeton, N.J.
Just six days ago, Curtis won the women's collegiate heptathlon at the Penn Relays. She scored 4,738 points, a personal best for her in that event. At the Penn Relays, despite winning none of the seven heptathlon events, she scored five personal bests winning by more than 100 points over her nearest competitor.
Three days beyond that, last Saturday at the Coast Guard Academy in New London, Curtis won the javelin and the long jump, and finished second in the high jump.

The Am Law 100, the Early Numbers: Baker & Hostetler's Madoff-Fueled Run Slows
After three years of extraordinary growth tied to its work on Bernard Madoff-related litigation, Baker & Hostetler saw its financial performance level off last year, according to The American Lawyer's reporting. While the firm's gross revenue rose a still-healthy 6 percent, to $540 million, its profits per partner were essentially flat at $935,000.

Bryan Police responded Wednesday night to a single-vehicle accident off Maloney Avenue. First responders were called to the scene just before 8 p.m. They say a man driving along Maloney saw a woman unconscious in her car that had crashed into a tree.
Police aren't sure how long the woman had been there, but say the mud on her car had dried and she had been there for some time before being discovered. She was taken to St. Joseph Hospital in Bryan. Her injuries are said to be non-life threatening. Her identity has not been released.
Bryan Police say they do not suspect alcohol was a factor in the wreck.

Death won't still the voice of Billy Mays or his mighty powers of persuasion. Viewers will continue to find the boisterous, bearded TV pitchman hawking household products for the indefinite future.
And at least one of his commercials is being introduced posthumously.
"Just stretch, wrap and it fuses fast," says Mays, demonstrating a product called Mighty Tape on a kitchen drain pipe in the new commercial. Moments later, he's seen, still wearing his signature sport shirt and khaki slacks but accessorized with scuba gear, as he repairs a hole in another diver's air hose underwater using Mighty Tape.
The commercial will begin airing July 20. Mays' advertising for other products in the Mighty brand line returned to the air earlier this week. The commercials were pulled after Mays' death June 28 of an apparent heart attack.
"Our feeling is everyone wants to have Billy go on," said Bill McAlister, president of Media Enterprises, a sales and marketing company based in Trevose, Pa. "This is what he would have wanted."

Ringing up Guests at Epcot
If you've strolled through the World Showcase at Epcot, you've no doubt seen the bright red phone booths in the United Kingdom and Canada pavilions. Maybe you even have a souvenir photo from when you tried to see how many people can fit into one booth. But did you know that those phones really work?…

Gloucester Daily Times
---- — To the editor:
There once was a rogue named John Bullard who captained a U-boat named Special Interest.
He was commissioned by a band of scurvy dogs in Washington, D.C., to roam the Atlantic seaboard to take down all fishing vessels hailing from a historic port named Gloucester.
Bullard loved to shout, "Up periscope" to his crew of seasick bureaucrats with NOAA patches on their uniforms and yellow streaks down their backs. There, in the crosshairs, lay a seasoned seaworthy ship with Gloucestermen hard at work, struggling against wind and waves to feed their families and other folk's families.
"Torpedoes ready," John barked, positioning his government-issued submarine, hidden under a sea of lies he so professionally navigated.
"Fire Obama 1!" came the command. "1 away." Pausing to sneakily smile, "Fire Obama 2!" "2 away."
Eyes fixed like a mangy coyote set to pounce on an unsuspecting rabbit, Bullard traced the foamy white trail the torpedoes carved destined to splinter the hull of his nautical quarry. JB seemed happy to send the Gloucester fishermen to their financial doom — and anxious to return to port for his favorite scallop and Pacific cod dinner.
"Thar she blows!" the sportcoated pirate bellowed as both torpedoes found their mark.
Bullard reached for his Department of Commerce souvenir knife to cut notch 201 in the gray metal paint of the periscope as another Gloucester vessel sank beneath the political waves.
"Survivors sir?" a crewmate queried. "Standing order. Report no survivors," John replied.
"Damn fools questioned our statistics," he added. "Let them count cod in the depths of the Atlantic!"

After canceling all tour dates last month over "internal discord and irreconcilable differences of ambition," folk duo the Civil Wars have hinted on Twitter about new music. Joy Williams said in a Twitter interview with singer-songwriter Alison Sudol of A Fine Frenzy that she was in the studio listening to new Civil Wars songs, and manager Nate Yetton, Williams' husband, posted a photo of a recording session. Neither Williams nor bandmate John Paul White were pictured.
Photos: Backstage at Bonnaroo 2012, the Civil Wars
Despite their inner turmoil, the Civil Wars had still expressed hopes to release new music in 2013, and will put out an Unplugged session in iTunes on January 15th. The Grammy winners are up for two more awards for their track "Safe and Sound" with Taylor Swift on The Hunger Games soundtrack, and have also been nominated for a Golden Globe.

Thirty or 40 years later, the story still made William Friday smile.
Hed been president of what is now the University of North Carolina system for 10 years or so, and one night a knock came on the front door of the stately presidents home on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. A young man fresh from the mountains, newly enrolled and the first in his family to go to college, was standing there.
Are you President Friday? he asked.
Yes, I am William Friday.
Well, my Daddy told me when I got here that I should go see Bill Friday.
The president invited him in, and advised him as to his course over the next four years.
That was the essence of William Friday. In 30 years as president of UNC, he set the course for many, as the North Star of public higher education in his home state and in many ways in the nation. And the North Star as well for students, for administrators he mentored, and on occasion for presidents of the United States.
Yet it was not his prominence or his influence or even his wisdom that made him the states most significant and beloved public leader of his generation. It was those qualities combined with his genuine modesty, his sincere interest in the people of this state, whether they were governors or peach growers at the farmers market. Friday treated all people the same.
When he traveled, he would be approached by people from all stations in life. Some had come to know him, perhaps, from his gracious public television show, North Carolina People. And they would talk years later about the time they met Bill Friday.
That honesty and sincerity were matched with steely righteousness. Friday was in front, leading and fighting, when the state confronted racial injustice, affronts to freedom of speech, discrimination against women.
Time and again, he stood against attempts in the General Assembly to raise costs to students, or to infringe on the universitys freedom. He believed in the power of education to transform individual lives, and in turn to illuminate the path to progress.
He was a leader for the ages. Personally, he embodied the best of what North Carolina was, and could hope to be.
And long after he had moved from that presidents home to his modest house near the campus, the door was still open.

Guns and gun control were ever-present topics this week, from a Times article about a small town in Utah "considering guns for all" to the fatal shootings of two police officers in Santa Cruz.
And, of course, attentive Times readers also responded to their fellow readers on other subjects.
Earlier this week, letter writer Elizabeth Barnert wrote that "encouraging gun ownership without promoting basic safety measures, such as proper storage of guns — unloaded and locked — is irresponsible."

As our leaders now discuss the terms and timetable of our withdrawal from Afghanistan, it is time for a discussion of history that would have been useful before we marched in.
The British invaded Afghanistan twice in the 19th century. The first time, in 1838, ended with the massacre of 16,000 fleeing Britons in January 1842. The second time, in 1878, the British achieved their goal of requiring Afghanistan to accept a diplomatic mission, but at the cost of 10,000 British lives. Both invasions were, generally, for the purpose of limiting foreign influence and quelling local tribal leaders.
The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979. That ended in a humiliating retreat 9 years later, after the loss of 15,000 Soviet lives and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Afghans. It should be noted that the Soviet forces were authorized, and willing to go to far greater extremes of force and brutality than US forces in the present conflict would even consider. They were right next door, and after hundreds of years of trying to increase their influence in Afghanistan, slunk away with their frozen tails between their frozen legs. Some analysts believe that the failed war in Afghanistan contributed significantly to the soon-to-follow implosion of the Soviet Union.
America's decade-long Afghan war, which has cost more than 2,000 American lives, has now come down to two issues. First, when and how will we withdraw, and second, what can be invented as the "mission" that was "accomplished" to avoid our 10-year misadventure from being labeled as what it was. That will be a challenge, since the death of Osama bin Laden (in Pakistan, we may remember) has been a while now, and if the "mission" was for us to establish a stable democracy in a place that does not even know what that means, or build a nation in a country that has never been a nation, nor anything more than a geographical description of a place where warring tribes have engaged in non-stop conflict for all of recorded history, we will have to admit that the "mission" was not "accomplished," and never will be accomplished by a the intervention of a foreign power unless it is done so by killing the entire population, which I do not think we are really up for doing.
Our national leaders learned nothing from the experiences of our great friends in London or our great "enemies" in Moscow. They learned nothing from our "accomplished mission" in Vietnam. An attempt to govern a nation by people who are unable or unwilling to comprehend history will only and always lead to folly.

Emily Willingham, Subscriber
I write about the science they're selling you.
After the science (and anti-science)-associated debacles of this past election, you might, as a science consumer, hope that our elected officials would adhere more closely to scientific evidence as they represent and make decisions on behalf of our nation's taxpayers. When it comes to autism, however, science and evidence often find themselves left out, even in congressional hearings intended to address them. Will that be happening again on November 29? According to The Hill,
The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is planning a hearing later this month on rising autism rates and the federal government's response.
The panel, chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa (D-Calif.), has invited witnesses from the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as Autism Speaks and other advocacy groups.
The brief goes on to say that
Autism rates are rising quickly. One in 88 children has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by age 8, the CDC reported in March, a dramatic increase from its previous estimates.
What this brief posting doesn't say is who has been promoting the meeting and why (those other 'advocacy groups'), and whom this meeting will leave out. As an editor at The Thinking Person's Guide to Autism, I became aware of this meeting before it officially made the calendar of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and our editorial team had immediate concerns. The initial conduit for this information was a website that primarily promotes the idea that mercury or vaccines or both cause autism and that children with autism are vaccine injured. As a commenter notes on The Hill brief, "This hearing was planned by those who believe autism is caused by environmental agents and nothing is being done about it." I can't objectively confirm the assertion that a Congressional committee meeting was somehow planned by an outside group with that belief, but I can confirm that two groups with agendas focused on the mercury-vaccine-autism causation chain have taken a very high profile in promoting this meeting and urging their followers to attend.
One way these groups try to spur their followers into action is by highlighting that 1 in 88 number, the most recent that the CDC has reported as autism prevalence among 8-year-olds in the US. The Hill brief calls this a "dramatic increase" from previous estimates, but the previous estimate from 2009 was 1 in 110, for an increase from 0.9% to 1.1%. As I have detailed elsewhere, an abundance of evidence suggests that much of this uptick is the result of corrected misdiagnoses, recalibrated diagnostic criteria, and greater awareness and that 1% is emerging as a fairly steady value in populations worldwide. That does not, however, keep organizations from inaccurately using the word "epidemic" to describe autism in the United States.
According to The Hill, invitations to the Committee meeting say that the intention is to discuss how the feds are responding to the recent rise in autism diagnoses and allocating government resources for autism, in addition to reviewing treatment options for autistic people. What the roster of purported invitees does not seem to include is autistic people themselves or their advocacy organizations. Because the editorial team of The Thinking Person's Guide to Autism, including me, has concerns that a diversionary agenda involving the debunked mercury-vaccine-autism association might dominate the proceedings, we have publicized the meeting ourselves in the hope that people with a broad range of perspectives and experience can attend. [Disclosure: I played a role in confirming that the meeting was taking place and in devising a conduit for those who cannot attend the meeting to fax their comments to the Committee, including approving the sample fax letter available at that link.]
As the parent of an autistic child and as a scientist, I'm concerned that a meeting with an agenda not grounded in science will harm not only autistic people who have no voice in the proceedings but also general public health by again raising the specter of "vaccines cause autism" in the public consciousness. Given the stark evidence of how vaccines save lives, any hearing with a Congressional imprimatur should especially involve careful, science-based consideration of public health issues.
I also believe that support in the form of appropriate educational, employment, and therapeutic access for autistic people is important. The federal government devotes considerable resources to autism in the United States, including authorizing $1 billion for autism biomedical and treatment research in 2011. We also already have a federal committee to synthesize and publicize autism-related information and engage in strategic planning for addressing autism-related supports. Would more support be a boon to autistic people and their families, especially if it targeted existing needs? Yes. But I do not understand how a Congressional committee meeting not focused on those needs would suddenly generate any useful insights or practical effects in a hastily organized proceeding with invitees who don't represent the entire spectrum of the autism community. Soon-to-retire Rep. Dan Burton, the man responsible for the 'circus-like' vaccines-autism committee proceeding in 2000 that featured one Andrew J. Wakefield, remains on this Congressional committee. Given that in 2007, when the purported vaccines-autism link was already disintegrating, Burton argued that families of autistic children should be compensated for "vaccine injury" through the federal Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, I don't have terribly high hopes that science will be in attendance at this latest meeting, either.
There are parents who are decidedly not in the groups Ms. Meleck represents who are also bringing children.
What an amazing coincidence that Safe Minds and TACA already visited Congressman Issa's office…before the hearing…and that Mark Blaxill from AOA is scheduled to speak on behalf of Safe Minds.
"Are they attending voluntarily?"
I suppose it's better than being left at home unsupervised …
Of course the pseudo science architects like the CDC will be there to protect their interest in the Big Pharma sponsored vaccine program just as you are protecting their interests with all your articles, however their prize possession when it comes to exonerating vaccines and their go to guy Dr.Poul Thorson will not be there since he is to busy at this time hiding from the FBI, in fact he was number one on their most wanted list for misusing autism research money on his own fancies, such as homes, cars, motorcycles, well you get the idea of course, otherwise you wouldn't be on here on a regular basis attacking the vaccine injured and their families.
You piled up a whole mess of unproven conspiracies in that post. Well done! Vaccines are not linked to autism according to many studies. There is no conspiracy by the CDC, big pharma, Dr Thorsen or anyone else. It is time to spend money where it has a chance to be effective.
"Dr.Poul Thorson…hiding from the FBI, in fact he was number one on their most wanted list…"
After a certain point one just has to accept the truth: the vaccines cause autism crowd is just a health care scam that preys upon folks that lack the intellectual/moral capabilities to click on the FBI site and search for Poul Thorson.
Meanwhile the top 99.999% of adults are laughing at the anti-vaccs.
Dr. Willingham,
Thorsen's collaborators have been very vocal in public about how he had no access to the raw data, didn't perform the analysis or interpretation of the data.
Why do you suppose that folks like Joe never post information like this?
Rather like most of the anti-vacc arguments–just doesn't stand up to a good faith effort at fact-checking.
The Thorsen story is the strongest evidence they have in the past decade for a vaccine-autism link. Which is to say (a) its no wonder they latched on to it and (b) they have no real evidence. Thorsen ripped off the CDC. What does this tell us about autism? Nothing.
Simple example of how this is PR not substance: since when is being held in his home country awaiting extradition "hiding out"? The US knows where he is and has filed papers to have him sent to the US. I have a different definition of "hiding out".
There is no doubt that environmental concerns including vaccines are going to be a subject of concern addressed at the hearing, however it is an excellent opportunity provided to get other concerns in the spotlight, as well, through the public commenting process.
As long as representatives from the CDC and the National Institute of Health will be called in as expert witnesses, science will be properly represented to address any information provided by those that express concerns associated with research directed at the environment, including some who still have a great deal of concern over vaccine associated issues, specific to identified subgroups of the Autism Spectrum.
It does seem to me that if any representative of a self-advocacy organization was invited to provide expert witness, it would likely be Ari Ne'eman selected, as he was already appointed by the President for an important position associated with concerns over disabilities.
It will be interesting to see if an answer is provided why he or apparently no other representatives on the spectrum from self-advocacy organizations were invited to speak as public witnesses, but he and other representatives of organizations, as well as people in the general public, do still have an excellent opportunity to attend and/or provide a written testimony for constructive input of the needs his organization and others see as not currently being met.
In the year 2000, the same "broad" ability of information access was not available to get the word out for public participation. This time around things will definitely be different, as last time there were no significant grassroots internet efforts, of those identifying on the spectrum, to motivate public participation. There is no longer any avenue of politics that is the same, in part, because of this development, in the US.

Staff reports
The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — Two elementary schools in the Kenmore-Tonawanda School District have been awarded $4,000 each through the Fuel Up to Play 60 program.
Charles A. Lindbergh and Thomas Jefferson schools received the grants this year, but this is the second year district schools have taken part in the program. Kenmore Middle and Holmes Elementary school were participants last year.
"We're excited about it," said Heather Ratka, a curriculum learning specialist for health and physical education in the district. The district's departments of food service, health and physical education worked together on the grant application and will oversee the program.
Fuel-Up to Play 60 is an in-school program that encourages healthy eating and 60 minutes of daily physical activity. The program was founded by the National Dairy Council and the National Football League.
"It gives schools a chance to do a school wellness investigation to see where they're at and improve on their weaknesses by doing 'plays,' " Ratka said. "For example, Edison last year created healthy recipes and partnered with Tops."
This year, she said, "we'll be doing taste-testing and exposing kids to healthy dairy options and partnering with local dairy famers."
On the physical activity side of the grant, plans call for new opportunities for children to get active while at school.
"Our hope was to purchase activity carts to be used by classroom teachers to give students the opportunity for additional physical education. When kids have free time, they could use this equipment to get busy and do it in a structured way," Ratka said.
"With students having so much testing and assessments these days, they don't get as much physical activity as they used to get."
Students can also get the chance to take part in a student ambassador program for their schools.
"I am very proud of both school for having won the Fuel Up to Play 60 Grant," Superintendent Mark P. Mondanaro said in a district press release. "For the second year in a row it shows the commitment we have to stressing healthy lifestyles for our youth."

NCEAS Project 2291
Comparing large, infrequent disturbances: What have we learned?
- Monica G. Turner
- Virginia H. Dale
|Further Information
|19th—21st May 1996
|Participant List
The importance of natural disturbances in shaping landscapes and influencing ecosystems is now well recognized in ecology. Understanding of relatively small disturbances has increased rapidly, but large infrequent disturbances--such as volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, big fires, tornadoes, and floods--have not been well studied.
Whether very large disturbances are qualitatively different from numerous small disturbance remains an unresolved issue in ecology, in part because of a paucity long-term data on the effects of large-scale disturbances. Within the past two decades, several very large natural disturbances--such as the eruption of Mount St. Helens in 1980, the Yellowstone fires of 1988, Hurricane Hugo in 1989, the floods in the midwest in 1993--have received considerable post-disturbance ecological research.
We propose a 2.5-day workshop to evaluate whether general conclusions about the ecological effects of large-scale disturbance are suggested.

phoenixgirrl said 292 weeks agowow, could this possibly be more perfect or appropriate for me? great work jimi! now to find the $ for it...
2thFairy said 292 weeks agoVery nice! Awesome color combo.
(LOL Nula!)
SilverTerv said 292 weeks agoYour comments... you are definitely on the right path. Honor your journey.
Nula said 292 weeks agoLol StevOramA. I'm not trying to be a smurf or anything, but honestly, shouldn't we show love to other numbers too? Or be doing something more interesting at 9:00 than waiting for Teefury to switch over? Tonight I am a hypocrite for saying this, It's true. Most nights, I'm having fun or talking to real humans. It's neato!
jac1080 said 292 weeks agoThanks for an amazing piece and also for inspiring words.
teezee93 said 292 weeks agoDon't love the tee, but I really like the inspiring story behind it. So thank you for that!
SteveOramA said 292 weeks agonah, i get what you're saying nula. it wouldn't be as bad/annoying if the people who commented with "first!" actually wrote something about the design afterwards.
Hopey said 292 weeks agoThis looks great Jimi boy, even if you did slightly misspell my name ;)
I love the colors, the details, and the depth. You plussed this one to perfection and I love looking at it.
Have a great Christmas!
Chadlonius said 292 weeks agoSweet.
AhemAhem said 292 weeks agoJimiyo = amazing artist & inspiring writer.
roboroller said 292 weeks agowhy is it that everything that everything that mr jimiyo puts out here is either something that I buy or absolutely LUST over? oh yeah...because HE IS AMAZING
Zorzech said 292 weeks agoThis has me written all over it. Thank you Jimiyo. I'm going to pick one up as soon as I wake up in the am.
Googooboyy said 292 weeks agoIs it lovely? Lovely, just lovely. Love it.
jimiyo said 292 weeks agoThanks for the support everyone! BUY 100 SHIRTS!
I'm hoping I can drop some decent dough on the ENCM.
I dropped off a 35 gallon tub full of clothes, jackets, pants, etc the other day, cause they have a kinduva Goodwill-ish store to support their initiatives. It felt good to help in that manner. They were very appreciative. Neat how something that has little value to me, can actually be of value to someone else. It's interesting to think that if I could find a few other people interested in helping out the co-op, it could really make a difference.
BLAH BLAH. Imagine if Teefury started selling like 2000-3000 shirts a night... That would be awesome. That kinda dough would start really making some waves.
Stormink said 292 weeks agoLove the artwork Jimi as usual! And the black shirt is always a good thing for myself. I just really detest flat strokes.
enin said 292 weeks agosocrates said, "the unexamined life is not worth living"
no matter your place in life
you don't have far to look to find someone worse off than you
good luck with your cause, jimiyo
jimiyo said 292 weeks agoenin: :D
one of my fave quotes! though sometimes, i wonder if i examine too much. paralysis of analysis. like what was my motivation for this charity act. was it altruistic or is there some subconscious selfish motivation. etc etc. i guess it dont hurt nobody. besides this shirt still has a chance of totally flopping in sales and not helping out much at all. which would smurf.
another one of my favorite quotes, "And that's my momma!" - Peter
jomus001 said 292 weeks agoI think this is boring...everyone can hate on this comment, which I expect. But truth being, this is too conventional.
plungah said 292 weeks agoUgh, stop TeeFury. My wallet can't take much more of this. (Unemployment is a smurf)

Questions about the cozy relationship between Senator Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) and Florida investor and ophthalmologist Dr. Salomon Melgen continue to grow, with the New York Times editorial board on Friday calling for Menendez to step down as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee at least until the accusations are resolved.

Even the sunniest summer eventually comes to an end, but that doesn't mean you need to stop thinking about boating. Use the off-season to brush up on navigational skills, emergency procedures, and safety regulations. Nationally recognized courses geared to all ages and skill levels are now offered online, in the classroom, and through interactive CD-ROM formats provided by boating organizations and government agencies alike.
Training is important to the safety and well being of everyone on board. For boat owner-operators, there's an added incentive: insurance companies frequently offer discounts on boat insurance to individuals who successfully complete a boating safety course approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) and recognized by the U.S. Coast Guard.
| Do you know what this buoy conveys?
So this winter complete an education and training course, get an insurance discount, and be ready to launch with confidence come spring.
Get the Basics
Those eager to purchase their first boat, or weekend boaters who take to the water in rented vessels, need a solid foundation of knowledge and skills to get started. In popular basic courses, important aspects of boating safety can be covered in just 8-10 hours of instruction that include a review of federal requirements. New boaters learn about required safety equipment, proper boat steerage, hull identification numbers, the various types of engines, sound-producing devices, visual distress signals, dock lines and rope, the types of knots and their uses, weather and tides, entering, loading and trimming a boat, as well as special information for operating personal watercraft.
Boaters also learn how to share the waterways safely with others. Unlike a new motorist driving on a highway, a new boater in open water sees no obvious lanes and traffic lights to signal when to stop or when it's permissible to make a turn. There are rules and signals to ensure safe boating practices. A basic course can show you how to recognize them. The Rules of Navigation, available under "Regulations" at www.uscgboating.org is a compilation of laws and best practices to be followed by boaters. There are also buoys, day beacons, lighted structures, lighthouses, and range markers to mark the safest routes on the water. A basic boating course will tell you how to read these Aids to Navigation.

I write about business and women's leadership.
Wal-Mart, the world's biggest retailer, this week announced the nomination of Google executive Marissa Mayer to its board of directors. Mayer, 36, joined Google in 1999 as its first female engineer and 20th employee and quickly ascended the executive ranks, first as VP of search and now as VP of local and maps. She also sits on Google's operating committee, an elite group of executives that oversees every critical product launch and decision, and may soon have a major board position under her belt.
Mayer would be the 16th board member and fourth female, effectively moving the board's gender ratio from 20% to 25% female.
It's not difficult to see why Wal-Mart would want Mayer. In a statement, Chairman Rob Walton emphasized her tech expertise, saying: "We are on the cusp of a massive transformation in the way people shop in our increasingly connected world. Marissa's insights and expertise in the technology and consumer areas are valuable assets to Wal-Mart as we move forward."
Mayer is also a minor celebrity, as a young, self-described "geek" succeeding in a male-dominated field. Last year, she was ranked No. 42 on the Forbes list of world's 100 most powerful women.
And Wal-Mart could use some female-friendly press after a massive sex-discrimination lawsuit involving 1.5 million women narrowly missed proceeding to the U.S. Supreme Court last year as the largest employment class-action in history. The suit, led by Wal-Mart employee Betty Dukes, began in 2001 and claimed that female employees were systematically paid less than male employees, received smaller raises and fewer promotions and were steered away from management positions into lower-level jobs without much advancement potential. The women's cases are expected to proceed on an individual basis or in smaller, more closely linked classes.
Wal-Mart's publicity department may be working in overdrive. In September it launched a Global Women's Economic Empowerment Initiative to increase female suppliers and women-owned business sourcing, train more female retail and factory workers, and donate to programs dedicated to women's empowerment. In data provided to news outlets, it showed that more than half of Wal-Mart's 2.2 million employees are women, and 28% of its U.S. corporate officers and 20% of its board directors are women, which is (sadly) better than the national average of female leadership in major U.S. companies.
It may be less clear why a super-star woman would want to join a company with a checkered past, but it could be a career-changing step for Mayer. While she also serves on the boards of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the San Francisco Ballet, the New York City Ballet and the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum, at Wal-Mart she would impact a global business in 27 countries with $444 billion in annual sales. The exposure, experience and connections may set her up for a successful future CEO bid.
"I am very excited to be nominated for the Wal-Mart board," said Mayer in statement. "I have long been a customer and admirer of the company. Wal-Mart is an amazing story of entrepreneurship and, as one of the world's most powerful brands, touches millions of lives every day. I look forward to contributing to Wal-Mart's continued growth, success, and innovation in the years to come."
Mayer's election would also inch Wal-Mart closer to a critical mass of women on the board. The Forum of Executive Women reports that 25% is the tipping point when women begin to have a strong voice and true impact on governance. Meanwhile, studies show when companies have 30% women in senior positions, they begin to create cultures supportive of women's advancement and the gender wage gap narrows.
Follow me @Jenna_Goudreau, and subscribe to me on Facebook.
Readers: Do you support Mayer's nomination to Wal-Mart's board? Should she align herself with a company facing allegations of female discrimination?
She is actually not there for the "Woman angle" she is there because of her matchless expertise in search specifically and technology in general.
Hey but way to assume the most misogynist possible reason of why they would want her: "No way do they want hey because of her *brains* it must be her *Ovaries*.
I am sorry, but Ms. Meyer has been over-hyped throughout her career, though primarily through her own PR management. Her inability to rise to a position of power within Google (was passed over for CEO and every other significant leadership position within the company) has demonstrated her inability to lead. She's great at PR and marketing herself, and has successfully crafted a persona as a "Woman Leader in Tech" even though many other more successful women pre-date her (Whitman, Fiorina, Sandberg) and significantly eclipse her experience and so-called success. Wal-Mart is either buying this hype or filling a token position with Ms. Meyer as many other accomplished women would be better picks and add much more value to the company.
["Help Solve Wal-Mart's Woman Problem?"]
They solved that back in 1996 in China.
Right off their China web page.
["Walmart China firmly believes in local sourcing. We have established partnerships with nearly 20,000 suppliers in China. Over 95% of the merchandise in our stores in China is sourced locally. In addition, Walmart is committed to local talent development and diversity, especially the cultivation and full utilization of female staff and executives. 99.9% of Walmart China associates are Chinese nationals. All our stores in China are managed by local Chinese. Furthermore, over 60 percent of Walmart China associates are female and about 40% of those are at management level. In 2009, the company established the "Walmart China Women's Leadership Development Commission" for driving women's career development."]
"Less than 5% foreign"….that purdy much guarantees the men and most the women a job making stuff….
"99.9% of Walmart China associates are Chinese nationals."…..that purdy much guarantees no one outside of China are little Janie Q's working in China….
"Furthermore, over 60 percent of Walmart China associates are female and about 40% of those are at management level."…..see, that shows there less than 40% men working as associates there….couldn't that be call discrimination.
Maybe Miss Mayer can ask all those O'fart's on the Board….why the less than 5% foreign in China and Made In China shoved down the throats of Americans.
There be 182 countries that make stuff for the people of the world to buy and Wal*Mart is depriving the nice people of China from buying it.
And what about that port in Mexico….is there a woman over it?
Besides….this O'fart thinks she be overly qualified for running ramrod on a bunch of O'fart's in the Ozarks that actually think Retail makes something….any fifth grader knows it makes NOTHING…all it does is move a countries currency…..and with a 6 to 1 trade deficit with China and Wal*Mart putting less than 5% foreign in their stores in China…..even the blonde haired Miss Mayer's can figure out who is getting the screwing.
Personally, I hope she has the ba!!s to tell them to kiss her @…..
oops! I know, this O'fart got carried away but you young people had better stop thumbing those gadgets, kick the cobwebs out of your head and understand the internet makes NOTHING too….it's the person behind the click.
"rjflorida"…..love the *brains* and *Ovaries* assuming and that word misogynist. America needs to see the words "Made In China" being manifested in the same light.
Jenna, love your writing and it's nice to know there are no little Janie Q's outside of Steve's office. :)
Good day!
Also, Starbucks recently added Clara Shih, CEO of social media startup Hearsay Social, to its board. Trend?
Great: I hope Ms. Mayer completely reorganizes Walmart's farmacia.
Is there a woman probably at Walmart? It looks to me like women are promoted all the time. If you don't want to change locations perhaps you don't get promoted. That seems to be a big problem. In a family with two wage earners, it is hard for one to move without the other finding a job that has equal pay. I don' t notice any gender problem at Walmart. Perhaps the author listens to the critics too much and isn't aware of what really goes on. The critics being the unions who don't have too much success getting Walmart employees to pay dues to them. Remember if you can't get in a company, you try and drive away the business. If you don't believe that is true, you need to do some research.

No need to research….. just Ask a little Janie Q.
["There is only one boss. The customer. And he can fire everybody in the company from the chairman on down, simply by spending his money somewhere else."] – Sam Walton
Even Sam used the "he" word.
From where this O'fart is standing….."somewhere else" is becoming a popular place.
Wal*Mart left Germany. Wal*Mart left South Korea.
Dang! they even closed their office in Russia and a few months later hired a Russian that is said to have had "irretrievably soured relations" with First Deputy Prime Minister Viktor Zubkov and his team, and with most influential United Russia members back in 2009…..
oh! He wasn't a woman either.
And when it comes to a union….if you live in America….you live in the greatest union of God's green Earth….it's a "she" too cause that's the only way anyone in this World gets here.
Hope you have a wonderful time as a loving critic of a workers union but remember all the associates at Wal*Mart in China are union members. Wal*Mart loves the union there.
Do you think when Edelman that major global communications firm faked those blogs for their client Wal*Mart there was a "union" behind it….
Do you think when Wal*Mart told the vendor for Buddy Steverson's Buddy's Jeans in Mississippi to lower the price are else….a union was behind that too.
What about that port deal in Mexico….
Fifteen super cargo ships pollute as much as 760 million automobiles but the American consumer is saving a few RED cents…
Over $9 billion dollars from all American taxpayers to clean the fish from ballast tanks of ships but the American consumers are saving a few RED cents.
Cheaper prices breed cheaper wages….
Shuckin'….if you go to church….you in a union.
If the American people want jobs (non-union or union) all they got to do is stop purchasing the foreign cause with a 6 to 1 trade deficit with China….George Washington(dollar) is a lot better off in an American consumers pocket book or purse than in the hands of a foreigner going to his/her bank.
When the foreign made is stuck on the Retail shelf….you will see corporate America bring those jobs back or you will see corporate America standing around with their right thumb up their @ and their left index finger scratching their head ….thinking "If it wasn't Bush's fault nor what was taught at Harvard maybe it had to do with a turnip out of a Kenya garden.
Oh! this O'fart has been driving all most seventy years.
Forgive me Lord….I didn't mean to type all that….
Have a nice evening.

Quote:Here's a new question for you... I took great care to get my RA and dec axis to be 90 degrees apart. But I didn't do the same for the OTA vs the dec axis. To my way of thinking, since the tube doesn't spin on it's own axis (is not controlled by the Autostar), that axis (it's line of sight) is not required to be at exactly 90 degrees from the dec axis for the Autostar's positional calculations to work. Correct?

CINCINNATI, OH - Track and field activists all over the world will soon be watching the best marathoners running for Olympic Gold in Sydney, Australia. In Cincinnati and surrounding areas, runners are busy training to participate in the 3rd Annual Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon on May 6, 2001. Nearly two dozen runners have already registered to participate in the marathon now known for attracting both the "everyday runner" as well as the experienced marathoner.
With the success of the 2nd annual Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon still on the minds of the City of Cincinnati, runners, volunteers, and race organizers, registration for the 3rd running, "Where Dreams Take Wing," has opened on-line at www.flyingpigmarathon.com, more than six months prior to the race.
The anticipation of the upcoming Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon has been felt both near and far. The first on-line registrant is from Virginia and has run 12 previous marathons.
"I was attracted to the Flying Pig Marathon
because of the name. The races that I have (previously run) - Disney, Mardi Gras, Rock 'N Roll, etc. have been because of some sort of unique quality. I try to pick races based off of their theme and those races that are supportive to the back of the pack ... since I am one that's back there," commented Patricia Grimes of Springfield, Virginia.
Local runners are ensuring their spot for the 2001 marathon as well. Nearly a dozen local individuals have registered, including many experienced competitors and first time marathoner Doug Ludmann from Ft. Thomas, Kentucky.
"There is no better escape from the day's burdens than running. The people of Cincinnati have an opportunity to do something that most people don't get a chance to do - run a marathon in their own city," noted Ludmann. "My wife and I are very excited and can't wait for race day. We hope to see all of our family and friends on the course."
Runners may apply on-line via the website at www.flyingpigmarathon.com or download an application from the website and mail it in. Applications for the 2001 Marathon can also be obtained in the Race Results Book from the 2000 Marathon or in running stores later this month. Applications will be mailed to all previous Flying Pig Marathon participants in November. All individual registrations received on-line or postmarked by January 15, 2001, receive an individual entry fee rate of $45.00. Registrations received prior to April 15, 2001 are $55.00/entry and $75.00 thereafter until the 4th of May, if available. Corporate Relay entrants may also register on-line at the cost of $500.00/team.
"It's really exciting to have our on-line registration up and running so much earlier this year. We have already received registrations from 8 different states, including 4 new marathoners," commented Kelly Weissmann, Executive Director, Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon. "We've always promoted the Cincinnati Flying Pig Marathon as a race for all types of runners - both new marathoners and experienced runners with goals of time improvement. It's fulfilling to see all levels of runners registering."

The Daily Star
---- — As with many holidays, Father's Day often sends people scrambling for the store in search of the perfect gift. In fact, when President Richard Nixon signed the proclamation making Father's Day a federal holiday in 1972, he may have had re-election in mind. The holiday had the secondary effect of boosting support from retailers who stood to profit from the revenue from gifts and cards, which now totals more than $1 billion annually.
But just as research shows that experiences tend to make people happier than material possessions, the gifts that are individual, created and experienced make Father's Days most memorable. Here are some locally inspired ideas for how to recognize that special dad, stepfather, grandfather, great-grandfather or stand-in dad:
Bill Michaels of Fly Creek Cider Mill described a weekend-long Father's Day special event at the Mill where dads can be treated like kings. A coupon available online treats dads to a free ice cream sundae. Lunch at the cider mill can include special items such as pot roast panini sandwiches, cider slushes or cold hard-cider beverages. Michaels described the visitor-friendly venue as a kid-oriented setting with space to play, nap in the sun, and sample loads of delicious products.
Michaels also suggested visiting The Farmers' Museum in Cooperstown to celebrate the day for dads. This weekend's "Step Back in Time" weekend event will feature historic pickup trucks. Or, the daring can challenge dad to a spin on the "Vomit Comet" aboard the museum's Empire State Carousel.
For adult children and their fathers, Michaels suggested taking Dad on the Cooperstown Beverage Trail. Visitors who make it through all six locations on the trail can receive a free glass at the end — an offer detailed in the trail's new "QUENCH" magazine, available at all locations. More information is available at www.cooperstownbeveragetrail.com. Just remember to establish a designated driver for the day's travels.
Father-friendly fare like homemade pretzels may be a way to get Dad into the kitchen, instead of keeping him out, on this holiday. Art-educator-turned-artisan-baker Anne Gohorel of the Andes bakery Bread Fellows suggested this easy baking project as being suitable for many different ages. Whether you bring Dad in on the fun of creating these edible, versatile and universally loved snacks, or just treat him to the finished result, he'll be sure to appreciate it. If pretzels aren't Dad's thing, there are plenty of other baking projects to consider, such as pita bread, Gohorel suggests.
A tribute can take on many forms, but poet and teacher Bertha Rogers, founder of the Bright Hill Center in Franklin, spoke about the power of written words to express gratitude, admiration and love.
Rogers described how the process of writing a poem for one's father creates a tribute that goes far beyond the sentiments of a store-bought card. To get the creative juices flowing, Rogers suggests having a picture of father near by. Catch hold of a memory of him when you were a certain age — a specific day or even a moment in time. Remember where you both were, what kind of weather it was, what were you both wearing.
Bertha offered this poem, which she wrote for her father, Kenneth, as an example of how words can carry memories and emotion far beyond the combination of letters on paper.
The Lesson
I see him often now, carrying empty washed pails, his faded green jacket fitted close to his collar, his brown-billed cap down, half-hiding serious eyes.
It is cold out there, where he walks, and November.
He passes out of sight, shows from between red buildings, opens barn doors, offering steam to the chill.
Laying his face to Holstein's flank, he strips milk from swollen teats, sings comfort to his cows, the child in the corner.
The barn is warm and deep and full with smells.
He carries pails of sloshing milk, calls the child to him, calls, hurry, it's late, and I hang on the back of his seat in the old black car all the way, all the way as he tells me birds and I spell hawk, speak sky.
For children in the Oneonta Jump Start program, Father's Day will be a busy one. Heidi Tanner-Brantley, director and teacher of the fitness-based child care program, explained that the children in the program will host a celebration field day for dads, with fun activities to keep everyone moving.
Dads who participate in this year's activities will receive handmade trophies created by the students — which would make a nice way to cap off a day of Father's Day activities for any dad. A previous Father's Day celebration at the Jump Start program paired photos of children holding a sign that read "My Dad Rocks!" with a hand-painted rock paperweight gift, Tanner-Brantley explained.
Starting a Father's Day tradition can provide a way to give a gift that's part object, part experience. Amy Williams, director of the Cullman Child Development Center in Sidney, said that this year at the center some of the children will be working with plaster of Paris to make stepping stones for their fathers with their hand print featured. Williams suggested that this is an idea that makes a great annual tradition as the child grows up and the hand size changes. Another group has decorated planter pots, filled with soil and started seeds as a gift for dad.
Fabric paint on a plain cloth apron can declare dad "king of the grill." Cleaning up the garage can really show you care. Washing and vaccuming the car can be a very special treat. Or sing a song, talk to Dad, ask him to tell you stories of his childhood (remember to write the tales down!). These are just a few ways to show Dad how much you appreciate the role he plays in your life.

First it was Jose Reyes. Now third baseman Brett Lawrie joins the Buffalo Bisons for a major league rehabilitation stint. Unfortunately for Bisons fans, the team spends the next four days on the road.
Lawrie will be with the Herd tonight in Syracuse for a 7 p.m. game with the Chiefs at NBT Bank Stadium.
Lawrie was placed on the disabled list on May 29 with a left ankle sprain. His rehab has progressed through the Blue Jays organization, playing two games with Single-A Dunedin, two with Single-A Lansing and three with Double-A New Hampshire. In those seven games, he has hit. 300 (6 for 20) driving in six runs and scoring four.
He played 37 games with Toronto this season, averaging .209 (29 for 139) with four doubles, two triples, five home runs and 14 RBI.
Last season, he drove in 48 runs while batting .273 in 125 games with the Blue Jays.
The Bisons are 2 1/2 games out of the International League Wild Card spot behind the Norfolk Tides. The Herd plays tonight and Wednesday in Syracuse then two games at Lehigh Valley, a team which is ahead of them in the wild card race.

At first glance, collage and photography seem quite different. After all, collage (a word coined by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque from the French coller, meaning "to glue or paste") is a tactile, even messy process of assembling bits and pieces of things to create an image. In comparison, photography is about as hands-off as it gets. However, both artistic mediums utilize and distill that which is already out there.
Found objects, whether material or captured by a camera, are challenging when it comes to realizing a composition that's both unified and unique; the layer cake isn't made entirely from scratch, so to speak. When choosing and combining what already exists in another form, artists less talented than Diane Fox and Deb Shmerler often get lost in the shuffle. That is, the editing of tesserae that collage necessitates is only a beginning step.
Extracting elements from one's environment and transforming them into an integrated and meaningful collage is not unlike the effort involved in photography. But photography relies on physical perspective and split-second timing, whereas collage assumes specific sizes and allows a less time-dependent approach. Either way, the extensive and varied selection of art now on display in Visual Travelogues at the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church through Nov. 2 (with an opening reception Friday evening from 6-7:30 p.m.) makes for a remarkably cohesive show.
The 24 archival ink-jet prints by Fox and 45 multimedia constructions by Shmerler could, given their quantity and scope, overwhelm the church's relatively tight gallery space. Yet they've proven to be a good fit. Fellow professors of graphic design at the University Tennessee, Fox and Shmerler are collaborating after teaching together in Florence, Italy—and parallels can be found within their work, as well as their shared experience. It's apparent that the two women are inspired by Italy's panoply of visual wonders and its dolce vita. Yet they've translated into truly exceptional images what they've gleaned from travel to other places, including Austria, Egypt, Peru, Tanzania, and Vietnam.
A senior lecturer in UT's College of Architecture and Design, Fox presents numerous photographs that—aside from functioning much as collage does in the aforementioned ways—actually resemble collage. Among images utilizing reflection to achieve a kind of layering is her "Meat, San Francisco, California"—a shot of a butcher seen through plate glass, framed by skinless, greasy-looking lengths of unidentifiable creatures. Especially striking is a white-haired woman wearing pale silk, mirrored in the scene as she walks by—as pure and alive as the strung-up flesh is dead.
Fox's "Potter, Atlanta, Georgia," a photograph of a glass-enclosed, realistic mannequin modeling lingerie and black stockings inside a mall, exudes a sexy serenity that—being derived from something inanimate—seems perverse. "Eyes, Boston, Massachusetts" features a shapely dress form covered with cut-out words and fashion pictures. Dominating a shop window reflecting upper-crust buildings across the street, it is—in and of itself—collage within a collage-like photograph.
With hair extensions draped over and around a dated image of a woman's face, "Ponytail, Rome, Italy" is also a storefront, but Fox's frontal perspective means the picture is less a matter of reflection than it is a surreal "ready-made" collage. A photograph titled "Trapped, Bern, Switzerland" shows a gilded female figurine tucked behind railing and spikes topping an iron fence; it, too, is collage discovered.
In a different vein, Fox has come up with some amusing images of unexpected finds, like three male mannequins chopped off at the knees and haphazardly propped against a building in "Red Bowties, New Orleans, Louisiana." Painted-on vests adorn the trio of headless and armless figures, suggesting Chippendales strippers. Distinguishing all of her prints is powerful color that "pops" without being distracting or technically enhanced-looking.
The clarity of vision evident in Fox's photographs also informs Shmerler's exquisite small-scale pieces. Despite employing a variety of materials and attending to the slightest of details, Shmerler has made art that seems effortlessly beautiful and somehow uncluttered, much like haiku (she says that the challenge of collage lies in "not overdoing it"). A 2012 UT Chancellors award winner for her multidisciplinary research, the artist presents works —as small as 4 inches square—that require close inspection, lending them a certain intimacy.
Assigning titles such as "Coral Reef 3, Chumbe Island, Tanzania," "Extinction Earth," "Geez, Appalachian Trail," "Via Della Concotta, Florence, Italy," "It's Not What You Say, Gatlinburg, TN," "Delta Son, Mekong Delta, Vietnam," and "Might As Well Be, Mt. Rainier, WA" to her quirky and complex, yet visually rhythmic pieces, Shmerler is not without a sense of humor. And her use of sensuous shapes, aged fabric, and paint-on-paper scraps, among other things, is masterful.
It's obvious that Fox and Shmerler need not reinvent the wheel. They only have to start it rolling, and gathering moss.
