Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (born March 28, 1986), who performs under the stage name Lady Gaga, is a singer, songwriter and musician from New York City, New York, United States.
Before Gaga adopted her stage name she was in a band called Stefani Germanotta Band. She released her first EP, "Red and Blue", in early 2006. The following year, music producer Rob Fusari dubbed her Lady Gaga, inspired by the Queen song "Radio Gaga". After this she recorded her first two songs as Lady Gaga (Fever and Wonderful) on Def Jam records, but was later let go.
She began her career as a songwriter for some of pop music's biggest stars, including Fergie, Pussycat Dolls, Britney Spears and New Kids on the Block, as well as American singer and producer Akon. After Akon recognized that Gaga also had vocal talent, he signed her to a joint deal with his own label, Kon Live Distribution, and then she started to work on her own new material for her debut album.
Gaga released "The Fame" in 2008, which she explained was "about how anyone can feel famous." To date, the album has spawned the international number one hit singles "Just Dance" (nominated for Best Dance Recording at the 51st Grammy Awards) and "Poker Face. The Fame then went Diamond in February 2010, selling over 12 million copies worldwide.
She then continued to release a new album 1 year later, "The Fame Monster", which she wasn't intending to make at first. She released "Bad Romance" as the first single, and has been nominated for dozens of awards all over the world. After The Fame Monster was released she released two more singles "Telephone (feat.

text: Senate's Failed Gun Bill Would Not Have Stopped LAX Shooter Print article Send a Tip by AWR Hawkins 4 Nov 2013 post a comment On November 3rd, authorities said they believe accused LAX shooter Paul Anthony Ciancia purchased his rifle "legally" from a licensed gun dealer in Los Angeles. This means he went through a background check and it means the Senate's failed gun bill would not have stopped him from getting his gun. According to WTOP 103.5, officials said Ciancia purchased a rifle and two handguns and the purchases "appeared legal." They added: "He didn't buy them on the street, he didn't buy them on the Internet--he bought them from a licensed gun dealer." This is crucial as proponents of gun control claim expanding background checks will make Americans safer. However, the expanded background checks will be the same checks performed now, only they will be done on every purchase instead of just some. Over time the background checks would change as more mental health information was accessible to those doing the checks, but that will require information sharing between agencies, state and federal sharing, and a mechanism for sharing/accessing that information that's not in place now. Even after a mechanism for sharing/accessing that information is place, persons with no recorded mental health conditions or prior criminal record will still pass background checks. During an April 14 appearance on Face The Nation, Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) admitted his expanded background check proposal would not have prevented the heinous crime at Sandy Hook Elementary. One of Manchin's staunchest fellow gun control supporters, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), also said expanded background check would not have made a difference in Newtown because Adam Lanza, although "disturbed ...had no criminal record or record of mental illness." Thus, no indicators "would have been caught in a background check." The FBI says they have "not found any evidence of previous crimes or run-ins with the TSA" in Ciancia's past.

Metronidazole should not be combined with amprenavir (Agenerase) for treating human immunodeficiency disease (infection with HIV) because amprenavir contains propylene glycol. Metronidazole blocks the breakdown of propylene glycol in the liver leading to accumulation of propylene glycol in blood. Accumulation of propylene glycol could cause seizures, increased heart rate, and lead to kidney failure.
Metronidazole increases the blood levels of carbamazepine (Tegretol, Tegretol XR , Equetro, Carbatrol), lithium (Eskalith, Lithobid) and cyclosporine though unknown mechanisms. Serious reactions may occur if these drugs are taken with metronidazole.
PREGNANCY: Metronidazole is not used in early pregnancy because of potential adverse effects on the fetus.
NURSING MOTHERS: Metronidazole is excreted in breast milk. Nursing mothers, because of potential adverse effects on the newborn, should not use metronidazole.
SIDE EFFECTS: Metronidazole is a valuable antibiotic and is generally well tolerated with appropriate use. Minor side effects include nausea, headaches, loss of appetite, a metallic taste, and rarely a rash. Serious side effects of metronidazole are rare. Serious side effects include seizures and damage of nerves resulting in numbness and tingling of extremities (peripheral neuropathy), encephalopathy, and aseptic meningitis. Metronidazole should be stopped if these symptoms appear.

The first solo album I heard by Kevin Devine was a demo tape a friendgave me in 1999. The tape was pared down sound, recorded in somebody's basement with a four-track. Hard-strumming acoustic guitar, toe-tapping percussion, a kid singing his heart out. With vocals untouched, and nothing produced, it was music in its simplest form, addictive and compelling.
But there was an additional side to Devine that I discovered when he performed in the indie rock outfit Miracle of 86, who cut their teeth at punk and hardcore shows in the '90s. Devine could easily transform himself from singer/songwriter into a shouting, high-energy, indie rock singer.
After Miracle broke up, Devine continued to pursue a thriving solo career that has earned him an international following, releasing six studio albums to high acclaim - including Brother's Blood (2010) and Between the Concrete and the Clouds (2011), both charting on Billboard's Top 200 and the latter peaking at #1 on Amazon.com's mp3 album chart. In addition, Devine's released two Billboard-charting records as a member of Bad Books, a collaboration with the indie rock band Manchester Orchestra.
Now with the simultaneous release of Bulldozer and Bubblegum, his seventh and eighth studio albums, the Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter attempts two drastically different sounds on two separate recordings in a dual-album project independently funded through a historically successful Kickstarter campaign.
Bulldozer is laced with electric folk-rock and pop ballads produced by Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, Guided by Voices).
Bubblegum, produced byJesse Lacey of Brand New,is a proper rock band record, a soundevolved from Devine's early days in Miracle of 86; a charging record loaded withfeedback, overdriven guitars and unexpectedly memorable hooks that bring to mind the best of the Pixies.
"After Miracle broke up," said Devine,"I'd write two songs per record that would have been Miracle songs. And when you're opening for rock bands like I was for so many years, [my band] got really good at pedal-to-the-floor rock. I had the notion to make two different records, two different ways at the same time."
While writing 22new songs and touring with Bad Books in fall 2012, Devine wrestled with uneasiness over the ethics of using a Kickstarter model to fund an established artist. He was, however, deeply disillusioned by his experiences inside the traditional label system; in the late months of 2012, as he continued to write, Devine's discomfort with the Kickstarter idea receded. He proceeded with the belief that he would be doing something different and true, placing his trust in his audience to guide him.
"I've made six records. In America they've been released on five different labels. It's a pretty unstable industry - What's made it a sustainable and a justifiable career for me has been the audience and their close, passionate connection to the music."
The Kickstarter campaign launched in January 2013, and immediately his audience answered back: within eight hours of the 45-day campaign's launch, his target financing of 50K to produce, record, and tour both records was met, allowing Bulldozer and Bubblegumto be made and released with complete independence. But it didn't stop there. Devine's audience surpassed his expectations, and by the end of the 45-day Kickstarter campaign, he had raised $114,805, more than double his initial target.
"When that audience tells you to keep doing it and here's the money, it almost renders a very crass thing - the exchange of money over the creative process - into a staggeringly humbling and encouraging experience. When this happened, I felt so motivated I dove into making the records."
From thereDevine set out to make what he had called LP7 (Bulldozer) and LP8(Bubblegum) on his own terms.
The ten songs that comprise Bulldozer, Devine's acoustic album, were recorded in L.A. from March to April 2013 and produced by frequent collaborator Rob Schnapf. With Devine on guitar, Schnapf gathered a stellar group of musicians to back him Russell Pollard and Elijah Thomson (Everest) on drums and bass, respectively; Isobel Campbell (Belle & Sebastian) on backup vocals; and Schnapf himself on guitar, mellotron, and percussion.
The commanding big sound of "Now: Navigate!" with its chiming guitars, tongue-in-cheek wordplay, is a stampede of power pop, as is the quintessential rock/pop sound of "Little Bulldozer." Songs like "She Can See Me" bring out Devine's punk rock roots. "From Here" was written in the days after Hurricane Sandy when Devine put things on hold to volunteer around Staten Island, where he partially grew up, and Brooklyn, where he now lives.Primarily, he came to the aid of two close friends who had lost their homes in the hurricane.Devineaided in food and material drives and played in benefit concerts. "But it's one of those things no matter how much you do it never seems enough." On "For Eugene," centered around the death of Eugene Contrubis, one of the many who drowned on Staten Island, Isobel Campbell, known most popularly from Belle &Sebastian, lends her voice to add a moving layer to a song that swells to high emotional peaks.
During the Fall of 2012, as Devine wrote and recorded demos of the twenty-two songs, he divided his catalog into two camps: the acoustic based songs he would record with Schnapf in L.A., and the songs he would record with Jesse Lacey in New York, some of which were written on bass guitar.
Bubblegum, Devine's "pedal-to-the-floor" rock album, is the product of his special collaboration with Jesse Lacey of Brand New as producer, shaping and writing alongside Mike Fadem on drums and Mike Strandberg on guitar, the two members of his touring group the Goddamn Band. The album was finished in April 2013, recorded at Dreamland Recording Studios in Hurley, NY and at Atomic Heart Studios in New York City.
The twelve songs on Bubblegum create a hard-driving, angular, and mature indie rock sound. Set to Pixie-like guitar riffs and socially conscious, politically bombastic lyrics, as evident on "Fiscal Cliff," this is a side of Devine that screamsand shouts itself over the feedback. "Nobel Prize" is a head-bouncing intro that captures the record's relentless energy. "Private First Class," based on the imprisonment Bradley Manning for leaking classified documents in Iraq, is a surf/punk- sounding anthem of the highest-measure. But even high-octane rock records need to slow down, and Devine does so on tracks like "I Can't Believe You" and "Red Bird" without losing consistency or steam.
The record's most poppy tracks hit back to back with "Bloodhound," "Bubblegum," and "Sick of Words," a catchy song that sounds as if Devine assembled Black Francis, Kim Deal, and Jackson Browne to back him - testament to the Goddamn Band's musicianship provided by Fadem and Strandberg, with a debt to Lacey who also steps in on bass and percussion, and backup vocals.*
Things have changed in the fourteen years since I heard that first Kevin Devine demo. Bulldozerand Bubblegum mark a new way to make music. With this simultaneous dual-album releasein the fashion of Springsteen, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, and Bright Eyes, Devine knocks down an old studio model with his audience'sparticipation.These twenty-two songs in totalweaveback and forth through our American landscape with bravado, heart, energy, and austerity. The delicacy ofBulldozer delights at every turn, every strum, every word, while Bubblegumturns the volume high, taking you in and out of time, a rock record nonpareil.Listen to them loud.

Family-owned community shops are a rare sight these days with Targets and Costcos dominating shopping centers. But with Foresto Tuxedo on Willis Avenue, you'll get an experience that's been available for 74 years in Mineola.
"It's an honor to be able to compete with the big box stores and do good business," owner Dominick Foresto said. "We give quality products and services; carry all the latest styles and we carry a lot that's made in the United States."
Foresto's parents, Michael and Nancy, started the business in 1940 and it has remained in Mineola ever since. At one point, the empire had five locations.
Styles change with the times; Foresto flows with the trends, but stays true to its roots, offering top notch men's wear, including Ralph Lauren, Jean Yves, Ike Behar, Perry Ellis, Calvin Klein, Hart Schaffner & Marx, Hickey Freeman and Jack Victor.
"Everything is a slimmer fit look now with slim fit pants and shirts," said Foresto. "They all want to look like they just got off the red carpet at the Oscars. Everyone wanted to look like The Great Gatsby for a while."
With prom season around the corner, Foresto's recently held a fashion show at Mineola High School, where Dominick fit students with men's wear. Foresto handles Chaminade High School's graduation and has supplied tuxedos for proms in Mineola, Jericho, Syosset,
Great Neck, Wheatley, New Hyde Park and Westbury schools.
"When students come rent a tuxedo for their prom from Mineola High School, they get a $25 discount," Foresto said. "It was great helping out the kids. They had a lot of fun."
For Foresto, he prides himself on his shop having a variety of styles. If it's for a wedding, prom, business function, etc., he wants Foresto's to be the one-stop shop.
"We can provide formal wear, either rental or sale, for any social occasions," he said. "While the Internet does help me with business, Amazon can't provide what we do."
Foresto's is the preferred vendor for Oheka Castle, Crest Hollow Country Club, Jericho Terrace, Inn at New Hyde Park and Cherry Valley Country Club to name a few.
His biggest source of customers? Weddings. "I had someone come in on a Tuesday and the wedding was on a Friday and we took care of them," Foresto said. "I did 10 tuxedos. I did them that Thursday and a few were picked up 11 a.m. that Friday morning. Having inventory and man power helps."
Foresto's was recently voted "Best Pick 2013" by popular bridal website The Knot and one of LIWeddings.com Best of 2014.
Foresto Tuxedo is at 309 Willis Ave., in Mineola. For more information, call 516-746-1410.

No Dreams Lyrics - Kenny Rogers
No dreams
No one could ever say that I didn't try
To save what once was mine
Oh girl, you once were my whole life
But I don't think time will ever let love be
The master of our destiny
Oh, if that's the way it must be.
Then there'll be no dreams for me tonight
No more grand schemes to try to make you mine
'cos no dreams are gonna change the way you feel
guess I'll just go somewhere, and hide away and heal.
Maybe some day you'll have a second thought
About the love that we just lost
God, I hope you do
But baby tonight, you're saying and let you go
Get used to being on my own
Oh girl, if you really should, really should …
Then there's no …
I could tell you the minute
That your heart stopped being in it
It's too late for dreams
No matter how magic they may be
'cos no dreams … are gonna change the way you feel...

A Gary police officer is dead after his police cruiser collided with another police car.
The flag at the Gary Police Department is at half-staff in honor of Officer Bernard Wilcher.
Wilcher was 28 years old and had worked with the Gary Police Department for about a year.
He was chasing a suspect at the time of the accident early Sunday morning.
Police say a suspect was arrested in the incident.
"He had a lot of heart, an excellent policeman, hardworking -- it's tearing us all out. When something like this happens to one of us, it reaches in and tears all our hearts out," said Sergeant Tim Somers, of the Gary Police Department.
The other officer involved in the accident suffered injuries that are not considered life threatening.

tuplad89, Welcome to Seven Forums. This is not my area of expertise, but I would suggest, starting in normal mode. Hold down the windows key(the one with the flag on it) and push the "R" key. It will bring up a dialogue box. type msconfig in the box and go to the startup tab. Uncheck everything there except your anti virus program, you will be prompted to reboot. Do so. Reboot even if not pompted. after reboot go back and make sure everything is still unchecked. See if you notice a difference in your issue.
Next press the start button and open an elevated command prompt ( Start-type cmd in the search boz, right click the cmd entry there and select run as administrator) In that window that appears type/copy-paste sfc /scannow If you decide to type it notice the space between the SFC and the /. If it says it found no integrity issues, type exit and let us know. If it says it found problems it couldn't fix, exit and restart the computer. Do the same thing again run scannow again. reboot. Keep doing that for 3 or 4 times until you get found no integrity violations. It is scanning system files looking for corrupted or missing files and trying to replace/repair them. It may take up to 3 times with reboots in between.

Home > News > Press Releases > Nathan Speare Regional Burn Treatment Center at Crozer Receives $5,000 Contribution as Part of Award Received by Burn Survivor
Published on April 01, 2010
Philadelphia based law firm, Anapol Schwartz recently announced that burn survivor Dennis Gleason, from Hatboro, Pa, was the recipient of its first Anapol Advocate Award. Established by The Anapol Schwartz Foundation (ASF), the award recognizes inspiring individuals who have helped victims affected by disabling injuries lead better and more productive lives. In honor of the award, Anapol Schwartz made a $5,000 contribution to the burn center of Gleason's choice, the Nathan Speare Regional Burn Treatment Center at Crozer-Chester Medical Center.
More than 1,000 people voted online to select the winner of the award from three semi-finalists. "I am very humbled by this award. It also reassures my mission to continue helping the Burn Association promote safety on the job," says Gleason.
In 1990, Gleason suffered severe electrical on-the-job burn injuries while working as a PECO lineman. After spending months in the Nathan Speare Regional Burn Treatment Center and even more time in rehabilitation, he chose to make the best of a devastating situation and returned to PECO as a safety trainer. For almost 20 years, he has shared his personal story with all new area line mechanics at PECO, contributing to the prevention of electrical contact injuries on the job.
Gleason has also written articles for magazines that reach thousands of electrical workers, spoken to industry groups, and has worked with the Philadelphia-based Burn Foundation to create DVDs about burn safety, particularly the one aimed at electrical contractors working around live wires. Gleason volunteers at Crozer-Chester Medical Center, is a member of the Burn Foundation's Survivor Advisory Council, and serves as a mentor to other burn survivors. He has also served as volunteer accompanying children to and from the Mid-Atlantic Burn Camp, formed especially for young burn survivors.
"I have dedicated myself to the continued discussion of fire and burn safety in the work place. An injury can happen so quickly that you don't have time to react and that is what it is important to always be aware of your surroundings and follow protocol," says Gleason.Gleason explains, "My day started out like any other day I had experienced as a lineman for more than 10 years. Once I arrived at the job site, I prepared to perform the small simple task of repairing an elbow on a cable, like I had done a thousand times previously.
"However, when I came in direct contact with a 7,620-volt power line, which blew a 140-amp fuse, my life was changed forever. The next thing I knew I was in the back of an ambulance and being air lifted to Crozer-Chester Medical Center, where I spent the next two months.

New Barn!
- Details
- Published on Saturday, 29 March 2014 21:53
We are so excited about the new horse and hay barn we've been building this winter and spring. It's a homegrown barn, from lumber we harvested here on the farm with our horses and milled on site. The upstairs will be for storing lots of loose hay, a big improvement over the small barn space and several outdoor haystacks we have relied on until now. The downstairs will be for the horses and our compost bins, which mostly get filled with manure and bedding from the horse stalls, so that will be really nice to have under one roof too. The barn design is inspired by an Amish style that is well-suited for putting up lots of loose hay.
We had a barn-raising with the help of many community members and friends from near and far on March 8th, and one of our friends took a series of time-lapse photos for the day. It's really neat to be able to see this way. You can watch the short version (one minute long), or the longer slideshow (about 9 minutes), at these two links:
Updated short version, with hay loading footage at the end!
Loading hay into the barn with the new track and trolley system. It works!!
Here's what the barn currently looks like from the inside, upstairs in the hay loft. You can just imagine how much hay we'll be able to fit in there! Yippee!

There's no shortage of things waiting for my attention.
Photo: Kathy Hagedorn • Akron Beacon Journal/MCT,
Because of the interminable winter, my house has never been cleaner, but that is not to say it is clean. All those secrets hidden behind closed doors …
I might not get to them all, but I am determined to scare the heck out of them! That ancient box of pearl tapioca might yield some comfort food if I soaked it rather than pushed it to the back of the cupboard — again. Oh, yes, and those letters I mean to write, not to mention tax preparation. Do I really want to be slaving over that chore in April when I could be out in the garden, for goodness sake? Oh, and how could I forget ironing? Hmm. As I believe John Burroughs once said: It is always good weather for something.

MADISON—As temperatures drop and bats and other animals seek shelter
indoors, state health officials are encouraging people to take steps to
minimize potential exposure to rabies. Wisconsin is home to at least
eight bat species, and some make their homes in man-made structures,
increasing the chance for accidental exposure to people, and between
bats and other animals.
"On World Rabies Day we encourage Wisconsin residents to learn ways
to avoid rabies virus infection," said Dr. Henry Anderson, State Health
Officer. "It may seem an unlikely possibility, but even people with very
minor exposures to bats have contracted rabies."
People who have had any possibility of physical contact with a bat,
even without a known bite, should have the animal safely captured and
held until a public health official or a physician can be consulted,
Anderson said. This way, health officials can determine if a bat is
infected and whether the individuals exposed to them require rabies
vaccinations. About 3 to 4 percent of bats tested by the Wisconsin State
Laboratory of Hygiene are infected with the rabies virus. Skunks also
spread the virus, and domestic animals in urban and rural areas can
become infected from exposure to these wild animals.
There have been three cases of human rabies in Wisconsin since 2000;
between 2006 and 2010, 123 wild animals and two domestic pets were
diagnosed with rabies. Worldwide, some 55,000 people die from rabies
virus infection annually, mainly in Asia and Africa. With appropriate
medical care, rabies is a 100 percent preventable human disease.
In addition to avoiding contact with bats, experts recommend the
following measures to minimize exposure to rabies:

FERC holds conference on electric reliability, asks about standards for resiliency – not just to prevent problems, but how to respond once they occur.
Flashpoint Congress
This year, or next, legislators will close in on a national energy bill.
recent Congressional hearing that featured federal and state utility regulators as witnesses. It illustrates how far apart the two sides are on the question of SMD for electric transmission and wholesale power transactions, and how federal hegemony over the grid might affect time-cherished state prerogatives, such as control over those grid functions that serve retail load. Here, you see the "two Washingtons" going at it: Washington state commission Chairwoman Marilyn Showalter debating with Chairman Pat Wood from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, in Washington, D.C.:
Chairman Wood: "Some objections to our rule have come from some state energy regulators. This is understandable, given our proposal to treat all transmission uses the same.
"We don't take this step lightly, but it is not possible to create a fair and equitable marketplace without use of a single set of rules for uses of the transmission grid. In our proposed rule, we explain in detail why we find that undue discrimination continues to this day, and its negative effects upon the competitors and customers of the wholesale electric market."
Chairwoman Showalter: "FERC's proposed rule rests on the premise that a vertically integrated utility, by its very nature, engages in undue discrimination. That is, when a utility, in order to fulfill its own obligations under state law, reserves its own transmission and load-balancing generation facilities to serve its own customers, it is practicing, according to FERC, undue discrimination. From this premise-that utilities preferring their own customers are engaging in undue discrimination-the rest of the rule flows. If this premise is misdirected and overbroad (as I believe it is), then the rule loses its justification."
Both regulators are as geometrically opposed as their respective time zones. It is difficult to believe that if state and federal regulators cannot find agreement that Congress will. Nevertheless, most congressional watchers believe there is major support for an electricity title that would have policies that favor competitive energy markets.
PUHCA: Down for the Count
For many years, utilities have called for the repeal of the Public Utility Holding Company Act, or "the '35 Act," as it is also known, referring to its Depression-era enactment. But one cannot help observing that PUHCA repeal may be needed now more than ever.
Some experts believe the credit and financial problems that have plagued the energy industry in the last year might have been cushioned had utilities had sizable enough balance sheets to withstand economic downturns, credit issues and diversify their risks. Very soon, industry may get its wish.
Congressional sources say that the great majority of those in Congress now favor repeal of PUHCA-a feature included in both Senate and House bills. They disagree mainly on how much added authority they should give to FERC to regulate mergers, as a quid pro quo. Of course, some senators continue to cling to the notion that PUHCA may have prevented the Enron collapse. Most experts refute that notion, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC says PUHCA would not have prevented the Enron collapse.
In fact, the SEC wholeheartedly supports PUHCA repeal:

text: DHS Email: 'We Absolutely Gave Special Treatment to GreenTech' Visa Requests Print article Send a Tip by Michael Patrick Leahy 3 Aug 2013 post a comment An April 2013 email from a career Department of Homeland Security official released on Friday by the office of Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) stated that the Department of Homeland Security "absolutely gave special treatment" to green card visa applications filed by foreign national EB-5 investors in GreenTech Automotive, the company Virginia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe served as chairman of from 2010 to 2012. In the released email, the names of the sender as well as the recipient have been redacted, but both are described as "career DHS officials." The text of the email also refers to a person called "D1," which Senator Grassley's office believes is US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) director Alejandro Mayorkas. President Obama nominated Mayorkas to become Deputy Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security on June 27. Mr. Mayorkas testified before a Senate committee holding hearings on his nomination on July 25. The hearings were attended by only Democrats. Republicans did not participate because Mr. Mayorkas is the subject of an investigation by the Department of Homeland Security's Inspector General's Office. The email, dated April 12, 2013, is from a "Senior USCIS Career Official" and is sent to "USCIS Career Officials." It reads as follows: We absolutely gave special treatment to GreenTech at the directive of D1. D1 was working directly with the RC's [EB-5 Regional Center] atty, [name redacted]. Additionally, I would call a wholesale rewrite of the AAO's [Administrative Appeals Office] decision by the front office special treatment. Look at the first draft in the attached email and the final version, attached. Senator Grassley asked Mr. Mayorkas about an apparent inconsistency between this email and his earlier testimony in a letter he sent to Mr. Mayorkas on Thursday. Grassley wrote to Mayorkas that "you testified [on July 25]: 'I have never ever in my career exercised undue influence to influence the outcome of a case.'" Grassley noted in his letter to Mayorkas that "D1 [mentioned in the April 12, 2013 email] is an apparent reference to you." Grassley then cited Mayorkas' testimony to the Senate committee on July 25: Several documents call into question some of the statements you made regarding preferential treatment in your testimony at last Thursday's hearing. For example, you were asked in the hearing about communications with Terry McAuliffe with respect to Gulf Coast Funds Management. You testified: "I was asked to attend a meeting with Mr. McAuliffe so that I could hear in person his complaints... two years ago... I heard those complaints, and that was the extent of the interaction... I moved on with my work." (Emphasis included in Grassley letter) But, Grassley wrote, "Contrary to the impression left by your answer, documents indicate that both before and after that meeting, you actually engaged in nearly a dozen contacts with Gulf Coast Funds Management between 2010 and 2013, including direct communications with Gulf Coast's attorneys." Grassley concluded, "That one meeting with Mr. McAuliffe was clearly not the extent of your interaction on that matter." The EB-5 foreign national investor program has come under intense scrutiny over the past several years. Under the program, enacted into law in 1990, foreign nationals may obtain temporary and permanent green card resident visas in return for investing a minimum of $500,000 in an American company. The possibility that foreign nationals who have invested in GreenTech Automotive have been granted temporary green card visas due to the political influence of the principals involved is a key issue currently under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security's Inspector General's Office. Terry McAuliffe, who was chairman of GreenTech Automotive during the period when political influence may have played a role in the granting of visas, is a friend and chief fundraiser for former President Bill Clinton. Anthony Rodham, brother of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, is the President and CEO of Gulf Coast Funds Management, which the Department of Homeland Security designated the EB-5 Regional Center that works exclusively with GreenTech Automotive to help secure green card visas for its EB-5 investors. Grassley's letter to Mayorkas was one of two stories about GreenTech Automotive that made headlines on Friday. In a related story, GreenTech Automotive confirmed to Breitbart News on Friday that it has received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission to produce company documents. According to the Washington Post, those documents were subpoenaed as evidence in the SEC's investigation into claims made by GreenTech Automotive to its investors.

fast breaking food in MPLS
- buenosds Sep 20, 2007 01:29 PM
saturday is the day to break the fast! while I'm not Jewish, I still love to have that great food on Saturday morning. Anyone know of a place to get home made gefilte fish, chopped liver, matzoh balls and the like in Mpls? Smoked fish would be a plus too!
The internet.
Seriously, excellent quality Jewish delicacies do not exist in MSP. It pains me to say that as these are beloved foods of my youth.
You can get by with the stuff at Fishman's in St. Louis Park. www.fishmanskosher.com I recommend it not because it's great but because it's the only place that has all of that stuff.
You could break Ramadan fast one night with a trip to Holy Land. Two years ago a trip there coincided with sundown and they had a spectacular spread of food.
re: Latinpig
Bear in mind that Fishman's will be closed on Saturday for the Sabbath. I would guess that they're not open Saturday night either.
Also on Central, north of the Holy Land, is a place called Marina Grill. I noticed they had a huge tent outside their restaurant to handle overflow from Ramadan crowds. Might be great for break-the-fast.
We'll be breaking the fast at Los Andes, the new Ecuadorian restaurant on Lake Street. Not too Jewish, but seems like a good place to feast.
re: dlgoldie
Please post your impressions of Los Andes. I asked about it last winter and got one response. I have yet to make it over there to try it out.
re: bob s
It's not as good as a first-hand impression from a fellow chowhound, but Dara reviewed Los Andes this week. http://articles.citypages.com/2007-09... I am on a personal mission to try empanadas everywhere I see them, and I have a fascination with Andean cuisine in general (and Bolivian/Peruvian in particular, so, this isn't a perfect fit, but, still...) so I insist on heading over there soon to check at least those out. But, I have a long list of other things I need to try there including the salchipapas and bistec a caballo and the various smoothies, including my favorites naranjilla and or guanabana and one I've never heard of called lulo. And, of course, plantains!
Los Andes

re: The Dairy Queen
Sorry to threadjack, bu I love, LOVE empanadas. It started years ago at a Chilean Resto in Omaha, carried on in Brazilian joints in Japan, and working in Argentina. I have yet to find the empanada of my dreams, but I still live in hope. I highly recommend that you make your own empanadas! They are the perfect lunch food. Very portable and delicious cold or hot.
re: bigchow
hi bigchow.. totally missed your reply earlier. do you have a good recipe you can count on?
Fishman's has the best challah in town. The rest of the stuff is so-so. The Byerley's in St. Louis Park has a large selection of Kosher foods. The best matzah ball soup is at Crossroads Deli in Hopkins. I brought it to our Rosh Hashana dinner last week and got a lot of compliments and people asking for my recipe.
For smoked fish, I get mine at two places: The Wedge and Costco. Costco has good lox and the prices are very reasonable -- but you have to be willing to eat a lot. I think the packaged stuff at Whole Foods might be slightly better, but it is more than double the price and not that much better. The Wedge's brown sugar smoked salmon is excellent, but it is in chunks -- not like lox or Nova. I have not seen anywhere in town where they slice smoked salmon to order like they do at a Zabar's or Russ and Daughters in New York.
Now I would love to hear if anyone in town sells smoked sable. I totally miss that from CT/NY.
re: Josh Resnik
Josh, good to hear from you.
I can say with 100%...nee...1000% certainty that STILL no place in Minnesota sells sable which I find completely and utterly unfathomable. Eating sable appeals to nearly every sense -- taste (obviously), smell (oh the wonderful combination of the sea and a smokehouse), touch (smooth, buttery, oily, decadent) and sight (pure, clean flesh with a festive dash of paprika). Oh man.
If I found a place, not only would I instantly buy them out of their entire supply, but there is no way in H - E - double hockey sticks that I would announce it on this board!
re: PhilESL
I've professed my love for Barney Greengrass (and Russ & Daughters) many, many times on these boards. To keep it MSP-appropriate, Barney Greengrass orders via mail to the Twin Cities arrive in excellent quality and freshness. I'm always skeptical of that but NYC-MSP works great for smoked and cured fish.
re: PhilESL
Phil, I kiss your friend's feet! I've never had sable, but after reading this thread, I REALLY need some. I can't wait!
re: AnneInMpls
Oh, yeah - the places link for Fishman's...
Fishman's Delicatessen and Bakery
4100 Minnetonka Blvd, Minneapolis, MN 55416
re: PhilESL
Great. I just started working over near there. There goes my weight and bank account. Thanks alot Phil's friend.
p.s. Anne and those who haven't experienced sable -- go in with accurate expectations. To appreciate sable, you need to be a person who enjoys fish. Not fishy in the bad way, but sable has FLAVOR unlike, say, walleye (I know...I never stop taking shots at the beloved walleye). It's not delicate. It's also at the oily end of the oily spectrum. It's akin to mackerel (different taste but same intensity) which many people don't like because it tastes too much like....fish.
re: buenosds
Like I said, I think Fishman's is the only place I've seen selling gefilte fish outside of a jar. I have no idea if they make it themselves though. Unfortunately, there's just no demand for homemade gefilte fish around here.
Yum! which is next to Fishman's and a heck of a lot more pleasant to shop in, is also making some wonderful Challah right now and will most likely be open on Saturday.
Cecil's Deli in St. Paul, is another kosher deli/grocer/cafe. I can't really comment on the authenticity or quality because i don't have much to compare to. It seems to me their selection leans toward the classic mass market kosher brands and products, but they do have matzoh ball soup and hametaschen (sp?) and other pastries, lots of good, fresh baked rye/other breads, the usual deli meat and cheese offerings. I can say, though, that I love love love their cafe aspect and they make delicious, giant sandwiches, and their latkes were tasty when i had them. also blintzes, but i haven't tried. the menu is very large. also, one of the sandwiches is made with french toast as the bread.
Cecil's Delicatessen & Bakery
651 Cleveland Ave S, Saint Paul, MN 55116
re: dahliachewswell
Cecil's is not kosher but a jewish style deli - they do mix their meat and milk -
re: weinstein5
so - here's cecil's deal, i think what dahlia meant to say is that Cecil's is a "kosher style" deli - however they would maintain that they are, in fact, in some part kosher. the set up they have does keep kosher meats out of the same refrigerator as non-kosher ones, and includes a different slicer for use only with kosher products. that said, i believe they are largely filling a cultural desire, and not religious demand, by offering them this way - as i don't see anyone who really cared about kashrut being okay with their set up.
as for the food - its okay - the meats are vienna flown in from chicago, primarily. the bread is okay - nicer than your basic supermarket loaf, and thats about it - id say pretty basic all around, surviving because there is no competition in a market with some demand for nostalgic tastes.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This is my son's third year and I really wish that I would have pulled him out the very first month of school. The office staff is extremely unhelpful. There few teachers that are helpful but 90% I really do believe don't care. I will not let my son finish the year here and I will not let my other children attend this school. Please beware if looking to attend this school.
Academic program is good. Students have access to extracurricular activities. Parents can be involved, but in general administration is not very parent-friendly.
I would not send a child to this school. My child attended for three years. I found the administration to be only superficially interested in solving problems or hearing parents and childrens point of view. In my opinion there was an imbalance between discipline and teaching. My child would be pulled out of class at the drop of a hat to find out if he knew about some particular incident. It didn't matter that he wasn't involved - he would miss an hour of class and no attempt would be made by administration to be sure that he was not impacted in terms of missing assignments, grades, an absenteeism, etc. While there are many good teachers there, those teachers who [were not so good] were not held accountable for sub-par performance which hurts students and good teachers alike.
Two of my daughters went to Fickett Middle School. They had extraordinary teachers who prepared them for the rigors of High school. They faced the normal middle school trauma and worked through it successfully. If only more schools worked as hard as these teachers and staff did, miracles could shock the nation. Perhaps if more parents were involved in their children's education, their experiences would be more positive. Try it! See what happens!
The Principals and Staff don't follow through. The halls are dirty, and the school is unorganized there are fights every week and nothing is done about it. My son was kicked choked and punched and the kid only got one day detention. The main principal says she will take care of something and just sweeps it under the rug. Sometimes they don't even have enough lunches to feed everyone. I would not recomend this school to anyone unless you want your children to see how it feels to be in prison.
I think that the money that should be spent on paper and things that the students need should be spent on them and not the Principal and administrators because they say that there isn't enought money for things that the students and school needs but there is more then enough money to buy things for the administrators and stuff they dont need.
A great school for great kids with great teachers.
This school is very dirty and the teachers are very mean!
