"Solid hero with amnesia meets dues ex machina"
cliche, enjoyable, romp
Most interesting: the universe of Amber is wonderful to take a wander through. Sort of a Platonic Ideal with shadows through which a certain privileged family may travel.
Least interesting: the way stumbling blindly through the story still seems to keep turning out all right.
Very likable Corwin/Corey. Very similar to the voice in my head when I first read the book.
Not really, chuckle occasionally but no serious belly laughs.
Start of a decent series and lays the foundation for an excellent role-playing game if you're into that sort of thing.
"Actual tear jerker, also very hot nookie"
Solidly good audio quality, good reader, characters I learned to care about despite their existing in a romance novel.
I read the second book in the series, so it compares well to that one. Not as much silly fun as Molly Harper books, but characters that seem like real life people you might meet.
Vince. Not always easy for a readers to do cross gender reading and I think she did a great balance of giving him audio distinctness, without making it cartoon like.
Friends with benefits has more benefits than Vince or Sadie expected.
Some stereo types, but too bad. Loved that Sadie was really together, not a neurotic mess like so many ladies in romance novels. She's a tough lady I think I'd like as a friend, not always true in romance.
I mostly read romance because of the sense of humor in so many of them. This one was a bit more serious than my usual, so while I actually cried at a couple of parts I'm really glad I listened to it.
"loved the geeky references, the relationships..."
First, the cracks about audio books are seriously funnier in this context. The geek references were exactly my cup of tea. The relationships felt like ones I have with people I know, so very authentic (I'm pretty sure I date the protagonist.) Google is a great hero but so are real human beings. The obsessions with books and mysteries are perfect for anyone who has ever wanted to find themselves in the middle of the stories of the jr high fantasy section.
Clay the protagonist is exactly the kind of person I love to hang around with. He's curious, creative and inescapablely optimistic. Failure is not the end, it just means to try something else. He's also goofy and a dreamer. Its his relationships with people that make his life work even our modern internet world.
He had the right 20 something tone for Clay and his voices for other characters are done with the affect of letting you know these are the way Clay sees these people, not the people themselves. It a great rhythm to his reading and it goes by so fast. I immediately started listening to it again as soon as I was done the first time.
Mysterious cults, hacker girls and ILM special effects... All Clay thought he wanted was a job in an all night book store.
Delightful! Share this one with everyone you know.

text: On May 28, 1994, at 1435 Alaska daylight time, a wheel equipped Piper PA-20 airplane, N6174D, experienced a total power loss during departure climb from Anchorage International Airport. The private pilot executed a forced landing in a swampy area beside the airport crash-fire station, where the plane's landing roll was arrested by the station's chain link fence. The flight was conducted under 14 CFR Part 91 in visual meteorological conditions for personal reasons on a flight from Anchorage to a beach location near Trading Bay on Cook Inlet. No flight plan was on file. The pilot and his passenger were uninjured, however the airplane sustained substantial damage.The pilot stated that the engine began to run rough during climb at 500 feet altitude. He said that he requested an immediate landing at the Lake Hood strip, east of the Anchorage departure runways, however during the turn to that landing the engine experienced total loss of power and the forced landing in the swampy area was necessitated.An external examination of the engine revealed a failure of a cylinder on the O-320 engine had occurred. Upon teardown examination, a failure of an exhaust valve at the stem, and it's subsequent ingestion, was apparent.The private pilot had approximately 3000 hours pilot experience in type and one hundred in the previous 90 day. He was able to execute a precision forced landing to a swamp area less than 200 feet in length and utilize an chain-link fence as an arresting barrier.

Christina Aguilera's collection of folding fans, JLo's curve-hugging (midriff-baring, slit-up-to-there, bedazzled) dresses, Nina Garcia's impeccably tailored designer ensembles. Who deserves the title of "Best Dressed Reality TV Judge" and who should be sent packing? Check out our full bracket here and vote in the polls below to determine who will move on to the next round. First up — the 8 judges in our "Dueling Divas" conference.

'The Voice': Shakira's live playoffs style, round one
The Voice entered the live playoffs last night and you know what that means: flashier sets and costumes for the contestants and judges alike. This time last season we were itching to have a PopStyle intervention with former judge Christina Aguilera who entered the playoffs in American flag pants and pink cornrows that matched a fuzzy fan. How did her replacement, Shakira, step into the live rounds? Read on for the details. READ FULL STORY
Celebrity Makeunder: Christina Aguilera before vs. Christina Aguilera after -- POLL
A new judge is filling her seat on The Voice, so what's Christina Aguilera been doing with her free time? Getting a makeunder!
A source tells People that the star enlisted the help of her hair, makeup and styling team to give her a new, toned-down look that reflects a healthier lifestyle.
"Without the grueling production hours Christina can focus… most importantly on herself," says the source, who adds that X-tina is also eating better and exercising. "It's amazing what having some personal time can do not only for the body but also for the mind and the spirit."
The most noticeable part of her transformation? No more rainbow-colored hair extensions. "I get tweets from her fans requesting stuff. But I've never had 2,000 Facebook messages praising me," hairstylist David Babaii says of Christina's new 'do. "And I'm like, all I did was use a curling iron!"
What do you think of Christina's new look? Cast your vote in the poll below! READ FULL STORY
Finale Fashion Face-Off: Britney Spears vs. Christina Aguilera -- POLL
Between The Voice and The X Factor, it was an epic week of reality singing competition finales, but for PopStylers, the real showdown was between age-old rivals Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.
Normally it's Aguilera who opts for the plunging neckline, but the "Genie in a Bottle" singer (like how I went with a classic? Forget Lotus) was surprisingly restrained on Tuesday night's Voice finale. Who knows? Maybe she wanted to redeem herself after last year's sparkly hot pants debacle. The coach sported jeans, an open drape jacket, and a loose-fitting (!!!) shirt. Top it all off with a blonde bob and a strong red lip, and she looked almost… classy.
Spears, on the other hand, went with a backless bodice dress with sheer front panels by Bottega Veneta, towering over her contestant, 13-year-old Carly Rose Sonenclar, in YSL heels. While I'm a fan of the two tones (if not the bondage vibe), the whole look is made sloppy by the high bun. Come on, Britney! You're better than this.
Those are my thoughts, but which outfit do you like better? Vote below!
'The Voice': Christina Aguilera's biggest fashion faux pas
Tonight's the finale of The Voice, and you know what that means. Forget that a winner will be crowned — does anyone really remember Jermaine Paul? — what I'm talking about is the fact that we will no longer be subjected to the retina-melting ensembles of Christina Aguilera. Keeping track of what Aguilera wore in seasons 1 and 2 was part of the fun, but now, what with the Kool-Aid color hair extensions, the drag queen makeup, and those folding fans, each of her season 3 looks has been more confusing than the last.
We narrowed the awfulness down to the five worst chain-fringed, dip-dyed, fan-fluttering fashion disasters of season 3. Come on, Christina, we know you can do better.
1. I know mullet dresses are in, but Christina looks like a cross between Nicki Minaj and Marie Antoinette in this bizarre get-up.

I had a sleep study done a few years ago and am seeing my doctor again tomorrow morning to see if I need another one. I was just looking at the previous study agan and have some questions.
The study did not find apnea, however I did have frequent sleep arousals as a result of my breathing -- the doctor called it upper airway resistance syndrome (uars). The mechanism (and treatment) is very similar to apnea except that instead of holding my breath, resulting in lower oxygen levels, when I had trouble breathing I woke myself up -- not long enough for me to notice, fell right back to sleep each time. This happened about 12 times an hour -- every 5 minutes. He told me that while this condition does not have the health consequences that apnea does, since my oxygen levels were stable, it could help explain why I am exhausted all of the time no matter how much I sleep.
He did not, however, talk to me about my sleep architecture, and looking again at the results it looks very off to me. I am wondering if this is because of the arousals or if there may be other things in play that also need attention. I'm especially concerned by the fact that stage 4 isn't even on there, which I'm interpreting to mean I literally did not get any. Note: I am on antidepressant medications, which at least partly explains the long REM latency, but it's really really long! In addition I also take vyvanse for adhd (similar to Ritalin or adderall) -- the max daily dose twice a day (so double the max). I can do that, drink a cup of coffee, and pretty easily still take a nap, which I find very disturbing...
Here are my architecture results:
Stage scoring:
N1 - 4 min - .8%
N2 - 270 min - 51.3%
N3 - 193.5 min - 36.8%
Rem - 59 min - 11.2%
Sleep parameters:
Time in bed: 570.5 min
Sleep time: 526.5 min
Efficiency: 92.3%
Wake after sleep onset: 24 min
Latency to sleep onset: 20 min
Latency to persist sleep: 30.5 min
Latency to rem: 391 min
Total arousal index: 15.2/ hour sleep time
I appreciate any info you can provide so I can know what to talk to my doctor about tomorrow. Thanks!

Manassero's Masters hopes alive in Morocco
AGADIR, Morocco — Matteo Manassero shot a 7-under 65 for a share of the third-round lead of the Hassan II Trophy on Sunday.
He joined Damien McGrane of Ireland (71) at 12 under, one stroke ahead of Jose Manuel Lara of Spain (70).
Manassero is keeping alive his hopes of making his professional debut at the Masters next month.
The 18-year old Italian joined 74 other players in resuming their rounds at the Golf du Palais Royal course after strong winds on Friday and poor light on Saturday pushed back play.
For the 61st-ranked Manassero to qualify for the Masters, which starts April 5, he has to win the tournament to enter the top 50 in the world rankings. The Italian competed in the 2009 Masters as the British amateur champion.
McGrane is trying to end a four-year winless run and capture his second European Tour event.
Northern Ireland's Michael Hoey (65), England's Matthew Baldwin (68), Phillip Price of Wales (72) and Joel Sjoholm (70) of Sweden were at 10 under.

November 28, 2014
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- Market analysts say political instability in the Ukraine, freeze damage and drought are conspiring to drive up wheat prices.
U.S. Wheat Associates, the industry's agricultural trade group, says in a recent report that concern over the political situation in Ukraine -- which supplies 6 percent of the world's wheat export market -- was one of the factors for the price spikes.
But the group's market analyst, Casey Chumrau, also says fears about drought in the United States and other wheat-producing countries are pushing prices higher.
Also spurring market concerns is the potential for freeze damage stemming from this year's frigid winter.
It's unclear how much consumers will be affected by the increases, but analysts say U.S. farmers are poised to cash in on the uncertainty.

ROCKLAND, Maine (AP) - Fans of "The Wizard of Oz" can head to Maine - not Kansas - to see an exhibit of all things Oz going back more than a century.
The Farnsworth Art Museum in Rockland kicked off its "Wonderful World of Oz" exhibition on Saturday with 107 items dating back to the 1900 book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz." The book has spawned countless movies, stage productions and spinoff merchandise.
The exhibit items come from the world's largest Wizard of Oz collection, owned by two Camden men who have more than 100,000 Oz-related items.
Among the things on display are the Wicked Witch of the West's hourglass, Dorothy's blue gingham dress, a Lollipop Guild munchkin outfit, a flying monkey and a pair of ruby slippers.

Noonan Pegs the Appalling "Memorial" Rally
In the words of Spock, "They don't know what's killing them." I disagreed with Wellstone on most things, but he (like Robert Casey) seems to have been a Dem who actually had some convictions. Now that he's dead, the party is being sucked into the black hole of Clintonian tackiness. There was something so unutterably inhuman about making the memorial a political rally. Something so unforgettably grotesque about the image of our impeached Accused-Rapist-in-Chief laughing it up at the memorial like the sociopath he is.

City manager promoted after scathing employee report
Vancouver sanitation boss Mike Zupan was in charge when Hells Angel was hired
Sam Cooper, The ProvincePublished: Sunday, September 15, 2013
The City of Vancouver has promoted the sanitation manager who was in charge when Hells Angel Ronaldo Lising was hired this spring. On Thursday - a day after The Province reported that some sanitation staff believe acting sanitation manager Mike Zupan knew of Lising's background when he was hired in May - staff were informed that Zupan had been promoted.
The merits behind the promotion according to the city - that Zupan has improved morale and employee engagement in a toxic workplace - come on the heels of a critical 2013 employment engagement regarding the leadership team.
A Sept. 12 internal email from Albert Shamess, director of waste management, states: "For the past eight months Mike has been doing an excellent job as acting manager and has successfully implemented and (sic) number of changes in the branch to improve operations, employee engagement and overall morale within the branch."
Ronaldo Lising is taken into custody in 1998. He was hired this spring by Vancouver's sanitation department.
Ward Perrin, PNG FilesMore pictures: < Prev | Next >
Zupan's promotion followed a Sept. 11 internal email from city manager Penny Ballem, which stated: "I am writing to all our staff today in regards to an article in today's
edition of the Province newspaper ... I am very concerned and dismayed about the unsubstantiated and irresponsible allegations and innuendo ... which is allegedly coming from our staff (and some of our retired staff ) regarding Mike Zupan, our acting manager of sanitation."
Ballem's note says the city has full confidence in Zupan.
It also reiterates that in response to The Province's exclusive Aug. 26 report on Lising's hiring, Ballem told media outlets "we would be carefully reviewing," the hiring of Lising.
The claim that Zupan has improved employee engagement in sanitation is hard to reconcile with a scathing February 2013 "employee engagement" review of the rank-and-file, obtained by The Province.
The report of complaints from about 200 workers taken down by a third-party reviewer is overwhelmingly negative on human resource management issues. In a summary of three main categories of review - opportunity, job posting and job training - favouritism is listed as a major problem in each.
Zupan is the only manager cited by name in the whole report. One of the complaints reads, "more clarity (needed between) city hall and Zupan and us. It feels like we're being sheltered and in the dark."
The report says that managers are not trusted, and quoted workers who said it is hard to "respect leaders who do nothing," such as surfing Facebook during shifts.
Also, staff said they "can't be truthful for fear of complaints to union (and) harassment."
The union for sanitation workers is CUPE 1004.
While the city this week countered information given to The Province by sanitation workers - claiming acting sanitation manager Zupan "was not involved in the hiring process" - sources told The Province they stand by their statements.
In short, they say that Zupan is in charge of hiring and he was aware of Lising's background.
One worker said that on Thursday morning a city manager attempted to discredit media reports about Zupan as "speculative" and told staff they should not make allegations to reporters.

text: Hawaii lieutenant gov. picked to fill Senate seat Share This: AP 12/27/2012 12:13:11 AM (AP) Hawaii lieutenant gov. picked to fill Senate seatBy BECKY BOHRERAssociated PressHONOLULULt. Gov. Brian Schatz of Hawaii was appointed Wednesday to succeed the late U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye.Gov. Neil Abercrombie announced the appointment after receiving a list of three candidates from the state Democratic Party earlier in the day. The other candidates were U.S. Rep. Colleen Hanabusa and Esther Kiaaina, a deputy director in the state Department of Land and Natural Resources.Inouye died Dec. 17 of respiratory complications at the age of 88. He had sent Abercrombie a letter that day, saying he would like Hanabusa, 61, to succeed him."Sen. Inouye conveyed his final wish to Gov. Abercrombie. While we are very disappointed that it was not honored, it was the governor's decision to make," Jennifer Sabas, Inouye's chief of staff, said in a statement. "We wish Brian Schatz the best of luck."Schatz will serve until an election is held in 2014. Had Hanabusa been appointed, a special election would have been needed to fill her seat.Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid had urged Abercrombie to name Inouye's successor before the end of the year. Schatz could be sworn in as early as this week, which would make him Hawaii's senior senator heading into the new Congress, which begins Jan. 3.Sen. Daniel Akaka is retiring at the end of this Congress, after 22 years in the Senate. Democratic Rep. Mazie Hirono was elected in November to succeed him.Schatz, 40, is a former state representative and a former chairman of the state Democratic Party. He also was a leader of President Barack Obama's campaign in Hawaii in 2008.In making his case before the party's central committee Wednesday, he said he understood the importance of seniority in the Senate and said that if he was appointed, he would strive to make serving in the Senate his life's work.___Becky Bohrer can be reached on Twitter at http://twitter.com/bbohrerap.

Honestly, we are poor military historians, so what little we know about the Dallas Artillery Company--which eventually became Battery A of the Texas National Guard's 133rd Field Artillery Unit--comes courtesy of intense Googling. Luckily for you, local historian Ed Owens knows quite a bit more than we do, seeing as how he sits on the staff of the Dallas Historical Society and all. See him speak on the subject 12 p.m. Wednesday in the Creative Center of the Clampitt Paper headquarters, 9207 Ambassador Row. Don't forget a lunch, as this event is part of the Historical Society's Brown Bag lecture series. RSVP at 214-421-4500, ext. 104 or by e-mailing firstname.lastname@example.com.

"People always say, 'Oh, there haven't been many black champions,' but on the other hand, there are a whole lot of white people that never won a belt either. These days, I think it's less of a racial thing. I honestly believe that if you are able to entertain and interact with the crowd, it doesn't matter what ethnicity you may be. WWE will reward you." - Kofi Kingston discusses racism and backstage politics

As was the case with most other performers who portrayed a heel foreigner during the era, Ivan Koloff was not a Russian. He was actually born in Canada, and his real name is Oreal Perras. Prior to becoming a well known heel in the industry, Koloff portrayed yet another ethnicity. He was once known as Red McNulty, whose character was Irish.

Former Ill. prison guard charged with selling guns to one-time inmate
SUN-TIMES MEDIA May 30, 2013 1:12PM
Updated: May 30, 2013 7:47PM
Early this year, a former Illinois prison guard allegedly in the business of selling firearms — including assault rifles — complained to a former inmate about the difficulty he was having finding weapons after the December school shooting in Newtown, Conn., federal authorities said.
The former guard, Dwayne Meeks, 48, now living in Little Rock, Ark., was arrested Wednesday on federal charges he sold eight firearms, including five assault rifles, to someone he knew was a convicted felon, according to federal prosecutors in Chicago.
The two met when the buyer was an inmate and the they stayed in touch. Meeks was arrested Wednesday by FBI agents following an undercover investigation in which the former inmate posed as a firearms trafficker in the federal probe, federal prosecutors in Chicago announced Thursday.
Meeks, formerly of Chicago and Joliet, was charged with one count each of dealing firearms without a federal license and selling firearms to a convicted felon in a criminal complaint that was unsealed following his arrest. He will be jailed pending a detention hearing Monday in Chicago before federal Judge Sidney I. Schenkier.
According to the complaint, Meeks and the former inmate — who later began working with federal authorities in the investigation — met in Chicago in May 2012 and Meeks began discussing selling various firearms and showing the cooperating individual photos of the weapons on his cell phone and via emails.
On July 14, 2012 Meeks and the former inmate met in a suburban Cook County Forest Preserve where Meeks allegedly sold eight high-powered firearms to the individual for $18,000, consisting of $15,000 for the weapons from Meek's supplier and $3,000 for Meeks' delivery fee, the release said.
FBI agents conducted surveillance and monitored audio and video-recorded transmissions of the alleged transaction, including during the transfer of the weapons from the back of Meeks' truck to the trunk of a car driven by the cooperating individual.
According to the U.S. Attorney's office, Meeks allegedly discussed selling additional firearms to the former inmate but a deal planned for the end of July 2012 fell through after the mass shooting at a theater in Aurora, Colo.
The two allegedly discussed another future firearms transaction but Meeks consistently reported the difficulty he was having finding firearms — including after the December school shooting in Newtown, Conn., according to the complaint.
During the last two weeks, Meeks and the former inmate also allegedly discussed Meeks coming to Chicago on Wednesday to sell the cooperating individual at least eight additional firearms. Meeks was arrested on Wednesday when he arrived at the same Forest Preserve location where they met last summer and three AR-15 assault rifles that he allegedly brought to sell were seized.
Dealing firearms without a federal license carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison, and selling firearms to a convicted felon carries a maximum of 10 years, and each count carries a $250,000 maximum fine.

Challenger Baseball Debuts in Savin Hill
Scenes from Savin Hill Little League's Challenger baseball division, which opened its season on Sunday, May 18 at McConnell Park. The Martin W. Richard Charitable Foundation is a major sponsor of the league. Their $10,000 donation is the first awarded by the charity.
The reasons for choosing Savin Hill Baseball— and the Challenger division— as the "first act of giving" by the foundation are "obvious but powerful," Bill Richard explained. "Martin loved sports, especially baseball, and he played at Savin Hill Little League. Jane is now working very hard to overcome her own physical challenges and as a family we are all-in in helping her and others have the same experiences as other kids."

The food items suggested for us by the staff were great. The entire family loved the food. We will definitely go back the next time we are in rockford.
We have had take out from here several times and have no complaints. Very friendly people! The best falafel and baba ghanoush. They give you plenty of good pita bread with your take out order. Rockford needed something like this
Located right next to Valli produce on state street.
The salad is heavily marinated - too vinegary for my tastes. The falafils were not that great. The hummus was very good but they definitely need to serve more pita bread with it than what they do! The baba ghannouj (eggplant dip) was interesting, first time I'd ever tried it -...
My husband and I both love Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food, so we decided to give this place a try with a Groupon that we had bought. We have been here many times since using it, we love this place so much. The lentil soup is amazing !! And the hummos is to die for ! This is actually my favorite hummos...
I took a solo trip to the restaurant and I had the special it was an eggplant casserole it came with a salad and rice was too much to eat but it was really really good! It was my first visit to the restaurant and I will go back again and again!
The casserole was layered with potato egg plant...
Visited this place on husband's business travle. Absolutely loved their food especially the wraps. My fav here was the chicken shawerma wrap. You can definitely tell the food is fresh. The lentil soup was really good as well. The owner and the employees are lovely people and super friendly. I loved being at this restaurant and loved everything about it....
The food is simply wonderful and the staff very friendly. Everything is made fresh and you can taste the difference.
I think I have tried almost everything on the menu including the Turkish Coffee. Others have said its expensive? I am a cheapskape and I think its fair. Thats why I tried everything on the menu.
Mediterranean cuisine is a personal fave, and there is a shortage of it here in Rockford. So, I was hopeful to satisfy my craving for some good kefta kabob and shish kabob. It was disappointing that the meats were so heavily salted and seasoned that you could barely taste the meat. The salad and sides were all really good. Maybe...
Wow, we love this place. Talal (Steve) and his wife do a wonderful job. Just about everything on the menu is home made, from the hummus to the sauces to the sides. We've tried several things and haven't been disappointed yet.
The family is super friendly and it's everything you could ask for in a family run diner setting. I...

If there are eight million stories in the naked city, then there are at least 80 million perspectives, and what I love about social media is the ability to share many more of these than can otherwise be seen. Take this one . . . sent along yesterday by Jonathan Steinman. Big Allis sets the location as about a half mile north of the bridge now named for Ed Koch. And the vessel . . . the current and VI version of Empire State on the first day . . . of Summer Sea Term 2014 and not yet out of its East River home waters. Greets to all the cadets on deck enjoying the mild spring morning. Click here for the previous versions of Empire State: I II III IV V.
And tailing . . it looks like McAllister Girls.
Around midday yesterday, Empire State was here (the blue icon off St George) and not quite 24 hours later,
she's off Montauk.
The previous photo from Jonathan–which I never shared–was this, taken in midMarch. If you're not from the area, that's the East River with Roosevelt Island making for a quite narrow channel. That's Shelby (of shuttle fame) and Freddy K Miller (ever morphing) team-pushing Weeks 533 (lifter of Sully's ditched 1549).
And if you've forgotten what my –and many others' focus was in midMarch, it was
Many thanks to Jonathan for sharing these photos.
Here's a photo I took almost four years ago of the SUNY Maritime training ship returning home from Summer Sea Term.
As I meander through my internal miasma, the blog stays noir–more accurately noir/blanc–with another set of screen shots from the NYC Municipal Archives, this time all 1940s . . .Department of Sanitation tugs Spring Creek, Fresh Kills, and Ferry Point, docked in the East River. Fresh Kills aka Miss Laura . .. is she still operating out of Duluth?
Here's another shot of Fresh Kills aka DS 43 off the Bellevue Hospital. Anyone know what became of Spring Creek and Ferry Point?
Can anyone identify this 1941 tug moving coal scows eastbound into the East River off the Battery?
Undated but in Erie Basin, it's SS Waziristan next to a floating grain elevator. It turns out that in early January 1942, SS Waziristan–bound from New York to Murmansk– was sunk by Nazi air and submarine attack off Bear Island, Norway, lost with all 47 crew.
Help me out here . . . an unidentified tug docking an unidentified ship in Erie Basin in 1940.
Meanwhile off Tottenville, here's a fleet of US Army transports . . . mothballed from WW!?
I believe this is a different ghost fleet in roughly the same area. Notice the Outerbridge in the background. Is this where all
this debris lies today? Actually, I took this photo and the next two just "north" of the Outerbridge in August 2010.
All the vintage photos here are from the NYC Municipal Archives, where too many photos have lamentable scarcity of captioning.
It's the summer station boat and a training platform for pilot apprentices. Recognize the location?
The station boat is on the East River just east of Hell Gate. From near to far, the bridges are the Hell Gate and then the RFK.
Here she passes the Astoria Generating Station on its way to the channel
between the Brothers.
Frequent contributor Ashley Hutto caught the No. 2 westbound later in the day, here passing the bridge I'd be happy to sell you.
Click here for a story of a visit to the No. 2 station boat by Kristina Fiore.
Thanks to Ashley for the bottom photo. All others by Will Van Dorp, who took photos of Peacock–an unusual pilot boat here not quite a year ago.
More Seth Tane fotos.
Foto #1. It's 1979, 34 years ago. What I see is no structure on Pier 17 Manhattan, lots of covered warehouses and a ship on the Brooklyn side. Extreme lower right of foto . . . is that the floating hospital? There's another large white vessel to the left of lightship Ambrose. There's a vacant lot just to the south of the Brooklyn side access to the Bridge. And a large ATB looking tug in the Navy Yard. What have I missed?
Foto #2. W. O. Decker–in my posts here and here and many other places–comes to pick up a tow, Poling #16. Digression: if you do Facebook, here's the Marion M (shown in the second Decker link there) updates site with fotos. Lots of intriguing details in the background of the Navy yard here.
Foto #3 Driving Decker here is most likely Geo Matteson, author of Tugboats of New York. A 2013 "reshoot" of this cityscape is a "must do."
Foto #4. Tied up at Pier 17, Decker remakes the tow to get the tanker alongside.

If you're interested in collaborating in a documentation of the changing harbor, particularly the evolving articulation between the sixth boro and the other five, please contact me. See address upper left side.
Actually that title captures 98% of this blog's +1800 posts. And just as elsewhere in Gotham or anywhere else, so on the sixth boro what work you see depends entirely on your station. And my station this particular day was Tchefuncte River's Equitable Equipment's hull # 1428, delivered in August 1966 as Red Star Towing's New Haven. Now she's Freddie K. Miller; I took the foto below just over five years ago when she was Stapleton Service. I use this foto here because a downside of being on the tow is my inability to get a foto OF the tow.
At 0520 hrs, dawn was sweetest and coolest, from this point a mile south of Miller's Launch. When I reported at 0530, the Miller's yard was already busy.
The crew of Freddie K Miller's had a job: pick up Weeks Crane Barge 552 and its crew and proceed to the East River ConEd. By 0615, crew was making the tow.
0645 we were crossing west to east across the Upper Bay. Buchanan 1 was towing a scow and
Douglas B. Gurion headed west for passengers. The ferry is named for a victim of September 11.
0715 . .. near Red Hook container port, we passed this ex-MSC vessel Transatlantic. I will post more MSC soon.
0730 . . . we had passed under the Brooklyn Bridge and now could feast on this potpourri of Manhattan skyline. Side by side on the right are Gehry's flowing-facade 8 Spruce (2011) and Gilbert's spiky-tower (1913).
0745 . . . we pass GMD Shipyard, where morning shift has already started its work on Massachusetts Maritime's TS Kennedy (1967).
0815 . . . the crew have tied to the ConEd dock and Weeks' crew has begun setting the spuds, for stability as the load is transferred. My very general understanding of this load is that ConEd purchased equipment from Manufacturer M. Company A trucked it to the Weeks yard because installation by land (by Company B) was less feasible than installation from water. Miller's job was to move equipment on crane barge to ConEd so that Weeks–with collaboration from Company B–could set equipment exactly where it will be used.
0915 . . . first equipment is lifted and rotated over the East River counterclockwise to avoid obstacles on land, and at
0920 . . . crew guides unit into exact location. If half an inch off, then lift and get it right.
1010 . . . next piece of equipment is moved. While the tug stands by with the crane barge, Miller crew does fine carpentry work in wheelhouse.
Since my self-appointed job is to record details, check out Carolina IV, sailing westbound on the East river . . . hailing from Stockholm, Yes, sailing! and . . . yes . . . that Stockholm while
eastbound are Gage Paul Thornton and a floatplane.
1115 . . . heavy-duty pipe elbow gets lifted into place. Tower protruding from the building just right of MetLife is Chrysler Building.
1215 . . . the spuds are up, the crane boom lowered and secured, Freddie K Miller has spun off the dock and now heads back westbound for the Weeks yard. If the grayish vessel in the foreground is locally known as a "honey boat," then this has to be one of the sweetest scenes possible in these parts.
1300 . . . as we approach the Weeks yard we cross Buchanan 12 towing three stone scows, possibly headed for a quarry up the Hudson.
1330 . . . Freddy K Miller is now "light," having left the barge at the Weeks yard. Ever Decent is outbound for sea, and by this writing is southbound off Cape Hatteras.
Meanwhile, close to Manhattan, Asphalt Star takes on bunker fuel from a Vane barge. That black hose . . . that's like the hose at the pump where you fill your car tank.
By 1400, I've said my thanks to the crew of Freddy K Miller —who await their next job on this or another vessel–and the dispatcher, and take a break to examine a familiar sight: Alice, she who inspired my first ever blogpost!!
Back on the bank and before heading home, I get another shot; she's loaded deep with her Canadian aggregates.
Imagine my delight, then, later that day getting a foto from Mike C. of Alice Oldendorff north of the Navy Yard self-unloading her cargo of crushed stone.
Many thanks to all the folks at Miller's Launch. Also, thank you Mike for sending along this last foto. All other fotos by Will Van Dorp.
AIS is just that . . a tool to help us see the otherwise unseen, those moving things over the horizon. And wonderful things there are to be seen with this tool.
Yesterday I was reading Ray Bradbury's short story "Night Meeting." A large part of the story features a conversation between Tomás Gomez (TG) , Earthling, and Muhe Ca (MC), Martian. I'll simplify part of it here:
"TG: The canals are empty right there.
MC: The canals are full of lavender wine.
TG: It's dead.
MC: It's alive. (protested the Martian, laughing more now.) Oh, you're quite wrong. See all the carnival lights? There are beautiful boats as slim as women, beautiful women as slim as boats, women the color of sand, women with fire flowers in their hands. I can see them, small, running in the streets there. That's where I'm going right now, to the festival; we'll float on the waters all night long; we'll sing; we'll drink; we'll make love. Can't you see it?
TG: Mister, that city is dead as a dried lizard. . . . "
So I was looking at AIS midmorning; the purplish clutch of "round the world clippers" was about 60 miles south and a tad east of Montauk. Another player out there -farther southeast of the racing yachts–was the tug Rachel! The last time she "passed my radar" was last fall when she towed a vessel from the San Francisco area to the scrappers in Texas. Now it appears she's homebound after a tow of parts to Bath Iron works, parts for what will become USS Zumwalt.
Also, just off Brick, NJ on the AIS "map" above is Larvik, which was at the dock in Bayonne yesterday.
Ten weeks ago in Nola, I got this quite distant foto of American Queen, which I understood had been at the dock for some time, a few seasons. Imagine my surprise, then, when I stumbled upon this article about steam travel on the Mississippi having resumed.
A visit to AIS finds her snaky trail leading to this dense cluster of vessels in Baton Rouge. Here's a recent NYTimes story on the boat with a great slideshow.
And finally . . . I caught Wilson Saga escorted by Brendan Turecamo headed under the Brooklyn Bridge the other day.
She's not a large ship relative to Brendan.
And until I got my fotos home, I'd never even noticed, taking Wilson's stern, the refurbished marketboat turned yacht named Peggy ?
So where do you suppose Wilson Saga has been prior to the sixth boro? Some obscure and magical places, if you like Nordica:
June 6th, New York
May 23rd, Aalborg
May 19th, Moerdijk
May 10th, Riga
May 7th, Jelsa
May 5th, Heroya
April 23rd, Svelgen
April 19th, Leirpollen
April 15th, Glomfjord
What a saga . . .

Someone out there MUST have fotos of her as "dead ship" coming into sixth boro waters.

Janis Joplin did my all-time favorite rendition of Summertime. I like how she takes it furiously into flight, almost like these boats, her sibilants and band's cymbals in places like electric cicadas.
Boats are jumping . . . er getting on plane . . .
If your daddy's rich . . . or at least willing to put some money into a boat . . . that is if he can after the S & P downgrade . ..
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing…
Then you'll spread your wings and take to the sky . . . or not. This one seems more like it'll head for the submarine races or something . . . .
But hush little baby . . . one of these will
take to the sky . . . one of these mornings . . or afternoons.
If your daddy's rich and your moma's good looking
Or if you're lucky when you play the flight board . . . with StndAIR…
Then you really might finally spread your wings and (leaping over the East River Ferry) . . . .
take the sky… topping the crown of Queens.
That's Will Van Dorp's version, who took these fotos. Here's Janis Joplin's, once when she kept it together and did nothing to harm herself. A seaplane on the East River appeared here quite long ago. Still, these booted seaplanettes pale in comparison with the old Aeromarine airships that used to link the North and Raritan Bay with Florida.
Some interesting postscripts:
1) BRBRbrooklyn caught FDNY's greeting SUNY Maritime's Empire State return this morning . . . while I was still drinking my coffee!!
2) Hats off to Stephen Askew, superintendent of North River Waste Treatment Plant, for his recent heroic captaining of a raft, a true friend of all denizens of the sixth boro.
3) News about the "troop carrier" found buried deep in the foundation of the World Trade Center . . . . Revolutionary War troop carrier that is.
A WTF!@#@! postscript too"
Lady Liberty appears in many fotos on this blog, including one above. Do you know what Rev. John Benefiel thinks about Bartholdi's lady? Fie!!!
Ace . . . never seen it before. Can you guess its location? Answer follows. I'd love to know the story. Mebbe she's the 1949er formerly known as Oil King? And what of the collapsed rail bridge lower left?
Is that Michael Cosgrove sashayed eastbound on the East River with the 2006 Pegasus?
Here's Franklin Reinauer headed for Erie Basin.
Note the crewman portside between the two scows as
Thomas J Brown heads for Gowanus.
Is it true that Shawn Miller pushed a barge to transport Our Lady for some R & R?
Foto of Ace was taken by will Van Dorp in the Wallabout Channel today.
And important news from Reuters, the escaped peacock has voluntarily returned to its home; my speculation is that a love match had frayed and said-cock needed some time away.
Remember, if you're in NYC and free tonight . . . Working Harbor Committee is presenting movie and panel: Women at Sea. If I didn't have to work, I'd be there.
I've posted a set of fotos about this vessel here before, but still been unable to learn anything about it. It lies where Westchester Creek (In fact, click on the link and you'll see another foto of the same grounded vessel!) flows into the East River west of the Whitestone Bridge. And not that I haven't looked, though it's clear that my searches have focused on the wrong places. Uncorroborated stories are these: it was coming from South America, the owner abandoned a plan to turn Christina or Cristina into a floating restaurant . . possibly in Philadelphia, it was dropped off there to mark a shoal. A search of NYTimes archives from 1920 until 1980 turns up nothing about either this grounded vessel or
When spring actually gets here and work slows down, I plan to put a human powered vessel in this area and look around more. Thanks to Robert Apuzzo for these fotos.
But . . . as often happens, I found some interesting info on other groundings in the harbor in the past 80 years . . . yes, one happened in the East River less than two weeks ago, as of this writing. Some of these include:
May 1927 dreadnought Colorado Diamond Reef* (between Governors Island and southeastern tip of the Battery)
Dec 1936 freighter Malang Roosevelt Island, then Welfare Island
Aug 1951 battleship Wisconsin (actually North River near NJ across from 79th Street)
Oct 1955 battleship Wisconsin Diamond Reef
Feb 1970 tanker Desert Princess (ex-Hoegh Grace, 664′) Mill Rock
Dec 1972 tanker Vitta (659′) south of Ward Island, spilling 150 tons of oil
April 1979 tanker Algol East River off 10th Street. If you have a NYTimes subscription, you can read the article here, telling that six Moran tugs came to the assistance of Algol in sprite of the strike then happening.
Apr 28 2005, a gasoline barge struck Diamond Reef, with some spillage. See here.
Meanwhile, if I don't find some info on that top wreck, I'll succumb to all the imagined histories, maybe even embroider them a bit, and call it fiction. Not so bad, eh?

Divko's personal tumult mirrors the country's situation at large with signs appearing that the Bosnian War is coming. As the war looms, tensions run high and Divko must decide whether to stay in his newly reestablished home or retreat.

Conference in Erzurum on civilian oversight of internal security units
The Governorship of Erzurum hosted a Conference on "Consultative Mechanisms at Local Level for Civilian Oversight of Internal Security Units" on 16 – 17 February 2009 in Erzurum within the scope of the "Improvement of Civilian Oversight of Internal Security Sector Project".
The Project is implemented by the Ministry of Interior with the technical assistance of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and is funded by the European Commission.
Various consultative mechanisms existing at the local level for the civilian oversight of internal security units were assessed during this two-day Conference. Erzurum is one of the three pilot provinces where activities within the scope of the project are currently being implemented, Over one hundred participants representing different sectors were present in the Conference where the establishment of regular consultation mechanisms at local level between local administrators and civil society concerning citizens' expectations from security services and consultative mechanisms necessary for the integration of such expectations into the existing structure were discussed.
The Conference benefited from the contributions of academicians of Atatürk University during the sessions of the two separate working groups that were established within the scope of the event.
The first working group focused on the issues related to the situation analysis, needs identification and recommendations to increase the effectiveness of Human Rights Boards at local level with respect to the increased effectiveness of civilian oversight. The working group further explored whether issues concerning civilian oversight of internal security were adequately reflected on the agenda of Human Rights Boards at provincial and district levels.
In the second working group, with the aim of including civilian oversight of internal security issues to the various existing local mechanisms, Local Decision Making Organs (Municipal Councils, City Councils, General Provincial Assemblies and Neighborhood Headmen- Mukhtars) of the Municipalities and Special Provincial Administrations were reviewed. This group also sought answers to such questions as to whether ethics councils could be established towards ensuring a balance between various security initiatives (i.e. MOBESE) of the local authorities and human rights related concerns.
The findings of the meeting were reflected on a "Final Declaration" and provided input to the second provincial Conference, which is planned to take place in June in the other pilot province, Niğde.
