CODICES SELECTI, Vol. LIV
"Only three of the native books of pictures with explanatory hieroglyphs, usually called codices, have survived. Although imperfectly understood, they have added considerably to our knowledge of the Maya deities."J. E. S. Thompson, The Civilizations of the Mayas, Chicago 1958, p. 26"... Codex Dresdensis, which besides being the most important of the three Maya codices, is also considered as the most artistic. It has been printed in Graz with the most up-to-date techniques, and the photography of almost all of the codex´s 78 pages is entirely new. Included with the full color Graz facsimile of the codex, which is in its original screen-like form, is a supplementary 135-page book that contains commentaries by Helmut Deckert and Ferdinand Anders on the history and early editions of the manuscript.The book also has 42 pages of illustrations, including the codex as it was printed in black and white by the Villacorta´s in 1930, and examples of the color reproductions of Ernst Forstmann and Lord E. K. Kingsborough.The codex and the book come packed together in a heavy cardboard box with a leather spline and are a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in Maya codices."H. C. Ball, Newsletter (Inst. of Maya Studies) jan. 1977 (Miami Museum of Science)

ETHICS COMPLAINT: Witness Comes Forward
The Iowa Senate ethics committee met Wednesday, this time with new information about an investigation into a lawmaker's actions.
The committee met to discuss a complaint against Republican senator Kent Sorensen.
Peter Waldron, a former aide to presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, filed the ethics complaint against Sorensen. It claims Sorensen concealed payments he received from the campaign and stole an email list of people who home school their children for use in his own campaign.
Wednesday, Waldron submitted an email to the committee saying a confidential witness has come forward.
"Now we`re sending a 10 day notice to get the affidavit back that he said he said he is willing and able to testify," says Sen. Wally Horn.
The ethics committee says if the confidential witness doesn't come forward within ten days the complaint will be dropped.

For a few months now, Apple has been releasing upgrades for many of its patented software across all of its operating systems, including watchOS, iOS and Mac. One of the latest software they have released an update for ios iTunes. The new version of iTunes has been released by Apple recently, version 12.4, which promises better navigation and a much easier user interface. The latest iTunes 12.4 version brings in all the changes it was rumoured to have as per the reports that came out a few weeks ago.
The newest version of iTunes is said to have changed its user interface in such a way that the users will now find it much easier to navigate through the app and toggle between each of its contents much more smoothly. The very first feature which will attract users is the easy toggling feature among the various contents of iTunes. With the upgrade, users can now move between TV shows, Movies, Music and the other contents faster. Moreover, iTunes has included a sidebar which will allow the user to navigate between the various categories Apple iTunes provide, such as genres, songs, albums, artists and recently added.
The sidebar also makes it easier for the user to create their playlists in a much easier way. Now they can simply drag and drop their selected songs in the playlist appearing on the sidebar. Moreover, they can edit the sidebar in a way which will allow the sidebar to show only the sections and contents the user wants to see and nothing more. iTunes can be updated easily by clicking the "checking for updates" option on the menu bar of iTunes. On the other hand, it is still not certain if the new update for iTunes has the fixes for the iTunes bug which previously deleted random personal files.

New Beginnings
Morava and Gunter Schaa bring Avesa Holistic Therapies
to Silver City.
by Rebecca Fitch
Morava and Gunter Schaa are good examples that life is about new beginnings at any age.
The couple will open Avesa Holistic Therapies Center on August 8 in Silver City, a venture that will bring Gunter (in his 70s) out of retirement and bring to fruition for Morava (50) a longtime dream to open a center after decades of concurrently studying and working out of her home office in natural and alternative healing.

The center is located at 508 Broadway, on the corner of Broadway and Cooper in front of the Grant County Courthouse near downtown Silver City.
Avesa Holistic Therapies will bring innovations in healing that are totally new to Silver City and some that are not well-known even in the state. Among them will be ozone therapy, various bio-energetic modalities, Egyptian healing rods, acupressure for emotional healing, aromatherapy application combined with hot stone treatments, total body cleansing, detoxification and cellular nutrition, Reiki, transpersonal hypnotherapy and counseling. Morava is one of only eight certified Avesa Intuitive Self-Ascension Counselors in the United States. According to practitioners, "Self-Ascension" is the realignment of your identity from the personality-self (ego) to the Divine-self (soul), which is the Authentic-self.
"This path of consciousness is both challenging and rewarding," Morava says. "As we blend soul-consciousness into our day-to-day experiences, we can begin to heal years of depression, illness, addictions and limiting belief patterns that have held us in 'dis-ease' and density consciousness."
Clients can also look forward to participating in weekly meetings, classes and workshops designed to help them take the next steps in their evolutionary journey toward optimal health and self-ascension.
Avesa Quantum Healing is holistic, fully integrative and can be used safely with both alternative and traditional healing modalities. It is now commonly accepted that the body, mind and spirit are interconnected.
Morava says, "We cannot simply focus on or treat an isolated part of the body or an ailment without taking a look at the whole person and what else may be going on in their life. Moving beyond the physical opens the door to getting at and resolving the cause versus simply living the effect.
"The Avesa method explores the mind-body connection and is as much about love as it is healing. It is a journey into self-love and self-discovery as it seeks to explain why the body has manifested 'dis-ease,' whether it's physical, emotional, mental or spiritual. Avesa teaches Self-Ascension as a way to transcend from the habit and belief that struggle and pain-based emotions must define you."
The Schaas decided to open an Avesa healing center after Morava graduated from the Temple of Self-Ascension (TOSA) in Antigua, Guatemala, earlier this year. There she studied and was certified in Avesa Quantum Healing under Self-Ascension masters and BBS Internet radio talk show hosts Sri Ram Kaa and Kira Raa.
Everything fell into place in Guatemala in a way that led the Schaas to believe divine intervention had taken place. Morava had been battling Lyme disease infection, which she contracted from a tick bite while vacationing in Europe in 2013. She opted not to engage in standard antibiotic therapy for Lyme disease, a decision she said troubled Gunter and his family deeply because his younger brother died from complications of Lyme disease. She said she achieved great results with deep, total body detox and cleansing as well as a raw vegan diet. It was thrilling to discover she could receive a safe, alternative treatment while she was completing her master studies in natural healing modalities and self-ascension certification in Guatemala. It was at TOSA's La Laguna Holistic Hotel and Spa on beautiful Lake Atitlan that she had her first hyperthermic ozone treatment.
"It was an experience unlike any other. I walked out feeling totally rejuvenated, relaxed and cleansed," Morava says.
More important, she immediately noticed a cessation of the joint pain and malaise associated with Lyme disease.
"I had to know more, so I embarked on intense research and study of the many uses of ozone in medical care. What I found was astounding, and as I was already opening the center, I knew I had to offer this amazing therapy to help others as it has helped me," she says.
There are basically three principal fields of healing that have since 1896 employed the use of ozone (a naturally occurring oxygen molecule found in the atmosphere): treating circulatory disorders, immune system disorders (viral infections and treating human blood with small amounts of ozone before reinfusion are examples) and inflammatory conditions (wound care, open ulcers, allergies, fungal infection are some examples). Information about more recent applications of ozone for Lyme disease and its use as a complementary therapy for cancer patients can be found at www.ozone-association.com and at the American Academy of Ozone Therapy website.
Additional research Morava shares helps explain why ozone therapy works so well in patients with hard-to-treat disorders: It activates the immune system to produce cytokines — chemical messengers the body uses to fight disease.
Most people do not realize how much ozone is being used in their daily lives, Morava adds. From purified bottled water to ozonized water used by dentists and dental hygienists and even certain oils used to treat skin conditions such as eczema and fungus, ozone is one of the most widely used and studied forms of natural medicine in modern times. The Journal of Natural Science, Biology and Medicine states ozone was standard care in World War I to treat and disinfect wounds.

Archbishop Timothy Dolan couldn't keep it to himself anymore.
Half a year into his tenure as archbishop of New York, he was bothered by widespread anti-Catholicism in the media. So he wrote a column about it and offered it to The New York Times. Most of the examples he cited were found in the pages of the Times.
The newspaper declined the column, saying it doesn't publish op-ed pieces in response to things in the newspaper.
But Archbishop Dolan has a blog, The Gospel in the Digital Age, and that's where the column can be found now.
All that was going on when the archbishop, leader of New York's 2.6 million Catholics, spoke with Register correspondent Paul Barra Oct. 26.
How have your expectations met the realities of life in the Big Apple?
They've been extremely happy months so far. I keep repeating myself by thanking the gracious people of the Archdiocese of New York and, indeed, the wider New York community, for their warm embrace. As a Midwesterner growing up in Missouri and having spent the last nearly seven years in Wisconsin, I'm afraid I have to confess that I harbored some caricatures about New Yorkers, falling into the trap of thinking they were icy and aloof and kind of unfriendly. That caricature is about as inaccurate as they get. The people here have just been exceptionally kind. So, the honeymoon is still on, but I feel right at home.
In many ways, culturally and intellectually, New York seems to be secular or a left-wing city, but I'm also pleasantly surprised at how religious it is. First of all, it's overtly Catholic; people seem to be proud to be Catholic. St. Patrick's Cathedral is jammed with people praying, and Sunday Masses are filled. There seems to be a sense of confidence in being Catholic and a sense of legitimate pride in being religious. That would almost seem to balance the reputation New York has of being a secular, pagan city.
Cardinal Francis George has appointed you the new moderator of Jewish affairs for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, saying that you are "a friend of the Jewish community who communicates the joy of his own faith, while … conveying profound respect for the spiritual gift of the other." Is that a good fit for you? You must be busy with Catholic Relief Services.
Since New York is second only to Israel in its number of Jewish citizens, I want to take that with the utmost seriousness. So far, the dialogue, the friendship and the neighborly meetings with the Jewish community have been most inspirational and constructive. So, I'm honored and welcome the new invitation to serve.
I had considered giving up the chairmanship of CRS, although it's a duty I relish, because of the demands on my time. Then I decided that my role here would give CRS more prominence and publicity, and the executive director, Ken Hackett, said that he still finds me accessible and attentive as chairman of the board to his needs. So far, so good. I look forward to continuing through my last year.
(The CRS Ambassadors program at Cabrini College and Villanova University) is one of our priorities. We want to be able to respond to the numbers of young people who want to give a year or two of their lives in service to the world's poor in the name of Jesus Christ. We literally cannot keep up with the number who want to serve overseas. One of our goals is to expand (the program).
Does your position as spiritual leader of New York make you a major voice in the USCCB?
Like it or not, I suppose that I am, not because of Timothy Dolan, but because I inherited the cathedra at St. Patrick's Cathedral; whoever occupies that has more attention rendered to him because of his role as the archbishop of New York. John Paul II referred to New York as the "capital of the world." And St. Patrick's is not just a museum or a tourist stop; it's a real living, breathing, praying church. An Episcopalian friend of mine told me the story of a cab driver who was asked by a fare to be taken to Christ Church. He took him to St. Patrick's. When the person said, "This is not Christ Church," the cabbie said, "I don't know much about religion, but I know that when Christ comes to town, this is where he stays."
There's something transcendent, something tangibly pious about the cathedral, situated as it is at Fifth Avenue and Rockefeller Center. The rector, Msgr. Robert Ritchie, opens the vast bronze doors to the street whenever the weather permits, to give the impression that "You're welcome." And people will come in and find themselves refreshed and spiritually uplifted from a busy, hectic day.
How do the demands of your ministry affect your own spiritual life, and how would a typical day for the archbishop of New York go?
I concluded a long time ago that to nurture my spiritual life through a good chunk of time in prayer, spiritual reading, reverent celebration of the Mass is not just a hobby, not just a luxury, not just a good idea: That's essential for survival. And the bigger the challenge that you have in the Church, the more you find yourself on your knees. One of the great gifts I've inherited is to have a chapel literally next to my study, so first thing every morning I'm in that chapel. I literally step from my dining room into the magnificent St. Patrick's Cathedral, so there I offer Mass every morning at 7:30, which is the heart of my day.
I returned to a custom of Cardinal John O'Connor of always offering the 10:15 Mass at St. Patrick's on Sunday morning. I find that Mass to be particularly exhilarating. You've got over 2,000 people there, the choir is superb, the quality of the liturgy is excellent, and it's a real icon of the Church universal. I try to visit the parishes of the archdiocese on Saturday evening and late Sunday afternoon. So, I say three Sunday Masses on a weekend — what priest doesn't these days?
What are the big needs that you face in the changing culture of the times, especially the growing popularity of same-sex "marriages" and the battle over conscience clauses for physicians and Catholic hospitals?
Those are burning issues. Recently, we bishops have spoken about the threats that seem to be high in American culture to the whole religious-liberty question, the whole First Amendment question. There's no denying the fact that there seem to be potent voices in our culture that would like to diminish if not mute the voice of religion and morality in public discourse, not only because we believe heart and soul in truth, but also because America is at her best when people pay attention to morals, to ethics, to religious values.
And, indeed, most of the grand causes in this noble experiment in democracy that we call the United States of America, from the Revolution itself, to anti-slavery, to the peace movement, to the civil-rights movement, to the pro-life movement have all been generated by people's strong religious faith. To take the voice away, to diminish it, would be to gravely imperil our American experience.
We can't let that happen. We must ensure that the Church is strong in its defense of its right to speak the truth. We don't come at these combustible issues merely from religion; we also remind our neighbors and our fellow citizens that this is part of ingrained human reason, and this is part of natural law, of certain inalienable rights that are normative in the American constitutional tradition.
How have you been treated by the exuberant secular New York press?
The press has been exceptionally attentive; they have been interested in what I have to say; they have joined in the chorus of welcome, and I can't keep up with the requests for interviews and articles and appearances. Now, I know that's going to take a nosedive sooner or later and, as a matter of fact, as I'm speaking with you now, there are some matters that have been aired in the local press that I feel as a Catholic leader that I must take strong exception to, and intend to do so. As Catholics, we must never pass up an opportunity to catechize.

Reidville, South Carolina.

Indians are excelling in an entire gamut of fields these days. From cooking to cricket, water surfing to tree hugging they are excelling everywhere! However, the recent appointment of Sundar Pichai as the CEO of Google attests that we are ruling the roost and leading esteemed organisations with panache. We'll be focusing on seven Most influential Indian CEO's who have climbed all the way to the top of the corporate ladder. This is the better time to get business savvy, huh?
Top Tech Leaders from India:
Here is a list of Top Tech Leaders from India.
1. Satya Nadella:
Current Position: CEO of Microsoft
Net Worth: $84 Million
Born in Hyderabad, Satya Nadella was appointed as the CEO on 4th February 2014 before which he was the Executive Vice President of Microsoft's Cloud and Enterprises group. He is a cricket enthusiast who has mentioned about the role of the sport in teaching him how to lead and be a team player.
His vision, as stated by him during the keynote speech on the first day of Microsoft's Build Conference is he wants technology to bring out the best in people, not the worst. He wants Microsoft to be pioneers in the field of helping people change the world by dint of their creativity.
He enjoys watching Test cricket and reading poetry. He believes poetry is the best form of Code.
It's like code," he says.
"You're trying to take something that can be described in many, many sentences and pages of prose, but you can convert it into a couple lines of poetry and you still get the essence, so it's that compression."
2. Sanjay Mehrotra:
Current Position: CEO of SanDisk
Annual Salary: $9.67 Million/Year
He became the CEO in January 2011 prior to which he served as SanDisk's President and Chief Operating Officer starting in 2006. He had Co-founded the company in 1998.
It's awe inspiring to learn that this individual who earned his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from the University of California, Berkeley, and is a graduate of the Stanford Graduate School of Business Executive Program (SEP) holds 71 Patents!
3. Rajeev Suri:
Current Position: CEO of Nokia Solutions
Annual Salary: €932,666
This individual who was born in New Delhi was appointed as the CEO in May 2014 after the sale of Nokia's phone division to Microsoft Mobile was completed. Interestingly, he does not have any MBA degree. Talk about innate business virtuosity! He is a fitness enthusiast and loves music.
4. Shantanu Narayen:
Current Position: CEO of Adobe Systems
Annual Salary: $875,000/year

Prior to his appointment in October 2015, he was the product chief at Google. The man behind the success of Android had his first encounter with a phone when he was 12 years old.
His story is a testimony to the fact that nothing is impossible. It's highly improbable for a metallurgical and materials engineering alumnus of IIT Kharagpur to have a successful career at Google, but he has defied all odds by climbing to the zenith of the corporate ladder.
This soccer and cricket enthusiast did his Masters in engineering and materials science at Stanford University and went on to pursue an MBA from the Wharton School of Business. When Pichai was preparing to go to the USA to fulfil his American Dream, his father had taken out more than a year's salary from the bank to make it happen.

Born in Bihar, this man was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of GlobalFoundries in January 2014. He has also held the top spot at Motorola Mobility. He is reportedly one of the highest paid CEO's in the US, as listed by the wall street journal.
If these people, coming from different parts of India can achieve the most coveted position in the corporate sector; if this motley of Indians could battle economic hardships and the vicissitudes of life to come out stronger and reach the zenith in their careers, so can you.
No situation is impossible to overcome. You just have to keep your head held high and focus on the job at hand. The captain of the Indian Cricket Team, Mahendra Singh Dhoni had realised the aspirations and dreams of a billion Indians on that fateful night in 2011 with a stupendous six. Later in an interview, someone asked him what was going through his mind when he hit the six.
And this is what he said:
"I was thinking about how many more runs are required for victory."
Do your job with the utmost conviction. Everything else will follow naturally. Feeling Inspired yet?

The Strait of Hormuz (hahr-MOOZ) connects the Persian Gulf with the Gulf of Oman in the Arabian Sea. It separates Iran and the Arabian Peninsula (specifically the United Arab Emirates and Musandam of Oman). Of great strategic importance, it contains several islands including: Qeshm, Hormoz, and Hengam; it is only 40-60 mi (64-97 km) wide.
Iran, slightly smaller than Alaska, borders the Gulf of Oman, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Persian Gulf. Iran is a pluralistic society, Persians are the largest ethnic group in Iran, though many are actually of mixed ancestry. The population of the country has important Turkic elements (e.g., Azeris) and Arabs predominate in the southwest. In addition, Iran's population includes Kurds, Balochi, Bakhtyari, Lurs, and other smaller minorities, such as Armenians, Assyrians, Jews, and Brahuis (or Brohi).
The ancient nation of Iran, historically known as Persia, has traditionally been a major power in the region. The seventh century Arab conquest of Iran, which introduced Islam to the population, was followed by invasions by the Seljuk Turks and the Mongols. Many date the beginning of modern Iranian history to the nationalist uprisings against the Shah in 1905 and the establishment of a limited constitutional monarchy in 1906. The discovery of oil in 1908 would later become a key factor in Iranian history and development.
In 1921, Reza Khan (an Iranian officer) seized control of the government, declared himself Shah in 1925, and established the Pahlavi dynasty. Reza Shah forcibly enacted policies of modernization and secularization in Iran and reasserted government authority over the country's tribes and provinces. In 1941, his son, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, ascended to the throne. The White Revolution in 1961 administered a series of economic, social, and administrative reforms. The Shah's autocratic method of rule and the abusive practices of SAVAK (his internal security and intelligence service) alienated large sectors of the population, including the Shi'a clergy.
The 1979 Islamic Revolution and the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war transformed Iran's class structure politically, socially, and economically. During this period, Shi'a clerics took a more dominant position in politics and nearly all aspects of Iranian life, both urban and rural. After the fall of the Pahlavi dynasty in 1979, much of the urban upper class of prominent merchants, industrialists, and professionals, favored by the former monarch, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, lost standing and influence to the senior clergy and their supporters. However, Bazaar merchants, who were allied with the clergy against the Shah, gained significant political and economic power after the revolution. The urban working class has enjoyed a somewhat enhanced status and economic mobility, spurred in part by opportunities provided by revolutionary organizations and the government bureaucracy. Though the number of clergy holding senior positions in the Majles and elsewhere in government has declined since the 1979 revolution, Iran has nevertheless witnessed the rise of a post-revolutionary elite among clerics who are strongly committed to the preservation of the Islamic Republic.
Most Iranians are Muslims; 89% belong to the Shi'a branch of Islam, the official state religion, while about 9% belong to the Sunni branch.

Introducing a Southern Girl Picker…oh no wait, make that "CHEAPSKATE SOUTHERN GIRL PICKER."
Learn all about that here. But I'm getting ahead of myself…I'm Florence, born and raised in the Deep South. Like most pickers, I'm very selective about what I buy. So aren't we all like that? Whether we admit it or not, we like cheap! Which is why I call myself the "Cheapskate!"
I'm all about picking in interesting trash piles, thrift stores, and mainly YARD SALES! Yard sales are MY bread and butter, and the place for finding treasures to sell on Ebay or Etsy.
Add estate sales to the mix…they are more expensive but yield interesting vintage items, and selling vintage is my niche.
I've sold on Ebay for many years, but now mainly concentrate on Etsy, which I love. I had a booth in an antique shop for a few years, but let that go because I found out I couldn't do it all.
Now I'm embarking on this blogging journey after thinking about it for several years. You will hear my experiences selling online, my goofs and successes. I LOVE yard sales, and look forward to them all week, but there's a better way to give one, and write your ad. As I'm reading ads, I'm wishing the sellers would give me more incentive to come through writing better descriptions! Read that post here.
I'm CONSTANTLY asked how to sell on Etsy or Ebay, but very few people have actually followed through. YOU will be the beneficiary of what I've learned over the years. But the best teacher of all, is just to start.

section 2 of the high line now open in new york
section 2 of 'the high line' by james corner field operations and diller scofidio + renfro in new york city

just in time for the summer, section 2 of the high line has officially opened to the public in new york city. designed by new york-based practices james corner field operations and diller scofidio + renfro, the one mile long urban park is recycled from the former elevated freight railroad spur and runs from gansevvort street in the meatpacking district to west 34th street, between 10th and 11th avenues.

new to the high line with the opening section 2 include additional access points at west 23rd street, west 26th street, west 28th street, and west 30th street. the entire park is fully wheelchair-accessible with two elevators at west 30th street and west 23rd street, supplementing the two existing elevators at west 14th and 16th streets.
a number of design features are also introduced to the public, such as 'chelsea thicket', a prairie-like landscape that stretches between west 20th and west 22nd streets; the 'lawn and seating steps', a 455 m2 grass yard and seating made from reclaimed teak at west 22nd and west 23rd streets; the 'falcone flyover', a metal walkway over the high line with a living canopy between west 45th and west 26th streets; and the 'wildflower field', a straight walkway running between west 26th and west 29th streets alongside a hardy landscape of various species.

full descriptions of the new design features:
wildflower field
between west 26th and west 29th streets, the landscape of the wildflower field is dominated by hardy, drought-resistance grasses and wildflowers, and features a mix of species that ensures variation in blooms throughout the growing season. the simplicity of the straight walkway, running alongside the wildflowers interspersed between the original railroad tracks, allows visitors to appreciate the green axis of the high line, as it moves through the city.

radial bench
at west 29th street, the high line begins a long, gentle curve towards the hudson river, signifying a transition to the west side rail yards. the high line's pathway echoes the curve, and a long bank of wooden benches sweep westward along the edge of the pathway. planting beds behind and in front of the benches line the curve with greenery.
'chelsea thicket', a densely-plated area of trees and shrbs between west 20th and west 22nd street

chelsea thicket
as visitors move north from the chelsea grasslands' prairie-like landscape, a dense planting of flowering shrubs and small trees indicates the beginning of a new section of the park, between west 20th and west 22nd streets. in the chelsea thicket, species like winterberry, redbud, and large american hollies provide year-round textural and color variation. an under-planting of low grasses, sedges, and shade-tolerant perennials further emphasizes the transition from grassland to thicket.

26th street viewing spur
hovering above the historic rail on the east side of the high line at west 26th street, the viewing spur's frame is meant to recall the billboards that were once attached to the high line. now the frame enhances, rather than blocks, views of the city. tall shrubs and trees flank the viewing spur's frame, while a platform with wood benches invites visitors to sit and enjoy views of 10th avenue and chelsea.

23rd street lawn and seating steps
the high line opens to a wider area between west 22nd and west 23rd streets, where an extra pair of rail tracks once served the loading docks of adjacent warehouses. the extra width in this area was used to create a gathering space, with seating steps made of reclaimed teak anchoring the southern end of a 4,900-square-foot lawn. at its northern end, the lawn 'peels up', lifting visitors several feet into the air and offering views of brooklyn to the east and the hudson river and new jersey to the west.

philip a. and lisa maria falcone flyover
between west 25th and west 26th streets, adjacent buildings create a microclimate that once cultivated a dense grove of tall shrubs and trees. now, a metal walkway rises eight feet above the high line, allowing groundcover plants to blanket the undulating terrain below, and carrying visitors upward, into a canopy of sumac and magnolia trees. at various points, overlooks branch off the walkway, creating opportunities to pause and enjoy views of the plantings below and the city beyond.

The coolest thing NYC has ever done? It certainly makes up for most of the SNL years…
ingenious in all respects!!!!!!!!!!!!!
probably one of the best urban projects i've ever seen here
great project, very similar to the one in Paris.
walked along phase 1 last year, truly inspiring
am speechless
das ist ganz groß! fantastic work!
this is the future… is simple, is perfect. Is Beuatiful.
We visited and instantly fell in love with the second phase. Check out some of our photos: [url=http://smithratliff.com/2011/06/09/the-high-lines-new-addition/]The High Line's New Addition[/url]
i have to say these in spanish: o seaaaa demasiado apero!!! … me quito el sombrero!!!
São Paulo could follow the example and do the same at the Minhocao area: http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevado_Presidente_Costa_e_Silva
A very modern take on the city park, the High Line's stretched form allow it to weave through offices and residences and become part of day-to-day life.
i want it in my sarajevo!!! 😛
Is it jsut me, or does HL23 already look dated?
Those balconies? You've got to be kidding me…
Excellent regeneration project. I just hope there will not be any muggings or other crime transposed from the lower-level streets to there. We need to see more of this kind of work in all cities.
This is one of best public space ever conceived for the city………… It is best example of an urban project i have ever come across!!! just loved it!!! beautiful beautiful!!!
it would be nice to see this with my own eyes, i never been in nyc/usa, indeed we need to see more of this kind work in all cities all over the world BEAUTIFUL

One of the questions we frequently get is "why don't you rate charity XYZ?"
Our response is "despite the fact that we evaluate, for free, ten times more organizations than anyone else in America has ever attempted, many deserving (and not deserving) ones exist that we haven't gotten to yet. You may know that there are now approximately 1 million charities in this country. We evaluate a lot of them. In fact, the ones we evaluate account for roughly 50% of the donations in America. But, obviously, there are many still to do."
After sending that information back to a user of our site (along with some tips to help her do her own analysis on the charity she was considering supporting), I got the following response "thank you very much for answering my request in so much detail. I had no idea about the real situation with charities [that there are so many]. It encourages me to give more but also to be pickier."
I liked her email as that's exactly what Charity Navigator is all about! We provide our free rating service so that donors will make smarter choices about which charities they support and feel confident in giving generously to those charities.

The weather is slowly warming in Southeastern Pennsylvania and working outside again has become a daily thing. To tell you the truth, I can't stand the cold unless I am hunting, fishing, or camping in it. I've worked in all types of elements in the past eight years and I hope my next job is indoors. Being outdoors has its benefits like not becoming a zombie or a machine created by the boring work you do indoors. Instead, you have the freedom to walk around, smoke cigarettes, and watch the sun set or rise. Those aspects of the job I will miss the most as well as the people I worked with.
Now it is time to move on down the road and find another job. I have thought about finding another job and leaving the Rail Road, but I was always too afraid that other jobs won't be as good. I guess staying out of contract work is something more to look out for! I guess I am looking for a third-shift job so it won't interfere with my college I will keep you updated on how that goes.

Other 91 items
Almond Butter Granola. $3.49. Trader Joe's Almond Butter Granola is baked into golden clusters that make it easy to enjoy on the go. Throw some into your bag with an apple and any one of our many jerky options to keep you going in the great outdoors (or on your not-so-great commute). Sprinkle a handful on your favorite yogurt with sliced berries. Or take the old-fashioned route and pour it into a bowl with milk for a crunchy morning meal that will keep you satisfied.
Barbeque Popped Ridges. $1.99. Are they chips? They do resemble chips in their circular shape and in their foundational potato and corn ingredients. They've also been ridge-cut, like so many "chip" varieties. However, our Barbeque Popped Ridges go beyond basic chip-ness by the process through which they are heated in a high-pressure chamber until they pop. This popping-puffing process gives them a delightfully airy, crunchy texture. Meanwhile, those ridges do an exceptional job of collecting and delivering the smoky, tangy, essence-of-BBQ seasoning we've concocted. Enjoy them dunked in Trader Joe's Tzatziki, crumbled over our BBQ Chicken Salad, or just right out of the bag!
Big Soft Pretzels. $2.49. We searched and searched before we finally found the best German pretzel producer to produce the best German Big Soft Pretzel. They make their dough in-house and from scratch, per a traditional, proprietary recipe. Before the Pretzels are baked, they're given a quick dip in a food-safe, sodium hydroxide solution (as true pretzels are); it's this well-timed, quick dip that ultimately gives them their chewy, golden-brown skin and their... pretzel-y flavor.
Birthday Cake Popcorn. $1.99. Trader Joe's Birthday Cake Popcorn is a party in a bag—and it's here to make the day-to-day just a little more festive and delicious. To make this timeless confection, we take just-popped popcorn and cover it in a sweet, vanilla-flavored glaze, then finish it off with colorful confetti sprinkles. It's a simple snack.
Burrata. $4.99. Trader Joe's Burrata is hand-formed in the States using traditional Italian production methods (fun fact: burrata translates to "buttery" in Italian). At first glance, this bright white orb of creamy cows' milk cheese resembles its cousin, the mighty Mozzarella ball; in fact, you might have walked right past the tub in the eight or so years we've carried it on our shelves for that very reason. But break open a ball of Burrata, and you'll be delighted to discover soft, stretchy curds comingling with rich cream in its center, greeting you with a slightly sweet, milky aroma.
Burrata, Prosciutto & Arugula Flatbread. $4.99. The crisp, wheat-flour crust is made for us in an ancient town near central Italy's Mount Sibilini National Park. The par-baked crust is topped with an indulgent mascarpone garlic cream sauce, some wild baby Arugula, and no less than five, fine, Italian cheeses. The mozzarella, fontal, Pecorino Romano, and Parmigiano Reggiano are special enough, but it's arguably the Burrata – with its soft mozzarella shell and super creamy insides – that puts this cheese-blend into a category all its own! You get to add the separately packaged Prosciutto yourself, just when your Flatbread emerges after about 12 minutes in a 450°F oven. The salty, aged character partners perfectly with the rich cheeses and peppery greens.
Buttermilk Protein Pancake Mix. $3.49. Made with simple, hearty ingredients like whole wheat flour, whole grain oat flour, whey protein concentrate, and buttermilk powder, Trader Joe's Buttermilk Protein Pancake Mix isn't just good for a purposefully protein-y product; it's good, period.
Chile Lime Seasoning Blend. $1.99. The result of that endeavor hit our spice racks as Trader Joe's Chile Lime Seasoning Blend, and it really captures the essence and character of the classic Mexican seasoning by which it was inspired. Chile Lime Seasoning Blend is a pretty simple mix of California sea salt, chile pepper, red bell pepper, and lime juice. It's spicy but not too hot, and tangy but not too puckery. Rather than a finely ground powder that mixes right in to recipes, its somewhat coarse grind delivers just a bit of texture, allowing it to stand out as a condiment.
Chocolate Chip Cocoa Meringues. $3.69. Contrary to what their cloud-like structures would suggest, Trader Joe's Chocolate Chip Cocoa Meringues come to us from a Southern California confectioner, not the heavens. Like their classic vanilla counterparts, these Cocoa Meringues are made from whipped egg whites and sugar, but they also feature two key additions: real cocoa powder and miniature, semi-sweet chocolate chips. The pale brown, egg-y batter gets piped through large, star-tipped nozzles and onto large baking sheets. Then, the sizeable, "kiss"-shaped Meringues are baked to light, crunchy perfection but taken out of the oven just before their softer, slightly chewy centers can fully harden. Talk about divine intervention...
Chocolate Chip Pain Au Lait. $2.99. Pain au Lait translates to "Milk Bread," a humble name for these slightly sweet and elegant rolls. Made for us in France, the dough is made from a time-honored family recipe, exhibiting an impossibly moist and fluffy texture, rich, eggy flavor, and a glossy, golden-brown exterior. Chock full of chocolate chips (the second ingredient, after wheat flour), these Chocolate Chip Pain Au Lait make for a sweet, satisfying snack, gilded with TJ's Cultured Butter and Raspberry Preserves. Or springboard your Saturday morning and pair a Pain Au Lait with a double espresso before tackling your weekend errands.
Chocolate Covered Wafer Cookie. $0.79. With its oh-so-satisfying crunch and rich, milk chocolate-y flavor, Trader Joe's Chocolate Covered Wafer Cookie is a surprisingly substantial, candy-like snack. What's the secret? Each bar is comprised of three layers of light, crispy-thin wafer cookie sandwiched together with sweet chocolate cream, which is then completely covered in delicious milk chocolate. This resulting combination creates a toothsome cookie treat that's light and crispy, but dense enough to really sink your teeth into. It pairs beautifully with a cup of hot coffee (may we suggest our Wake Up Blend) and it's a perfect "emergency candy" to have in your bag just in case your sweet tooth strikes.
Chocolate Croissants. $4.49. Trader Joe's Chocolate Croissants bring high-end bakery quality to your home kitchen with minimal effort. Remove them from the package and let them proof overnight (just as a French bakery would); in the morning, you'll find the Croissants have nearly tripled in size! Brush with an egg wash, then bake 20-25 minutes until the Croissants are a deep golden brown. Let them rest for 10 minutes (you can do it!), and then prepare to delight in the gooey, melted Chocolate and warm, flaky croissant dough. Yummmmm.
Cold Brew Coffee Bags. $5.99. With around 50% less acid than a hot water-brewed cup of coffee, cold brew is truly smooth, but the brewing process can be a hassle. Luckily, Trader Joe's Cold Brew Coffee Bags make crafting the perfect cold brew an absolute cinch.Picture giant tea bags (made of food-grade, non- woven, recycleable PET plastic) — only instead of tea, they're filled with 100% Arabica medium-roast coffee, grown in Tanzania at the base Mt. Kilimanjaro. Simply toss two of these conveniently pre-portioned Coffee Bags into a pitcher with seven cups of cold water, let it steep in the fridge overnight (8-12 hours), and say good morning to a bright, smooth glass of Cold Brew.
Cold Pressed Pineapple Juice. $2.99. It takes one-and-a-half large, juicy, Guatemalan-grown pineapples to make one 12-fluid-ounce bottle of Trader Joe's Cold Pressed Pineapple Juice. Right after they're harvested, these golden pineapples are "juiced" in a slow hydraulic press, for maximum liquid extraction. Once bottled, our Juice goes through a cold, water-pressure method called HPP (High Pressure Processing). This process guarantees a juice that's safe to drink, without compromising its fresh flavor or its nutritional value.
Cookie Butter Ice Cream. $4.49. Cookie Butter Ice Cream begins as humble-yet-rich vanilla ice cream, carefully crafted using fresh cream from the Midwestern United States and Madagascar vanilla extract. Pieces of Belgian Speculoos cookies are blended into the ice cream, and then comes the pièce de résistance, the not-so-secret ingredient that makes all of our ice cream wishes come true – a ribbon of the real deal – Trader Joe's Speculoos Cookie Butter. This is a masterwork of ice cream craftsmanship, a miracle of milk transformation. The instant you take your first bite is a moment you'll remember (we definitely remember ours). Scoop it onto a cone, into a bowl, or into your blender for a Cookie Butter MilkshakeTJ.
Corn & Wheat Tortillas. $1.99. Trader José's Corn & Wheat Tortillas de mi Abuela are soft, easy-to-roll, homemade-style tortillas that represent the best tortilla-making traditions, with a distinctly Trader Joe's twist. They're crafted with a unique blend of corn and wheat that gives them their soft, pliable texture and their uniquely rich flavor profile. They're low in fat, and every serving is packed with whole grains.
Creamy Chicken Poblano Ravioli. $3.69. This unique, fresh pasta comes from one of our trusted ravioli suppliers. The filling is made with chunks of breast meat from chickens raised cage-free and fed an all-vegetarian diet with no antibiotics. It's paired with plenty of poblanos, giving each bite a fresh-chili flavor and mild heat. Four kinds of cheese (ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan & Romano) round out the filling, with heavy cream and breadcrumbs – all seasoned with oregano, garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Dark Chocolate Ganache Mini Sheet Cake. $4.49. The "Mini" here means about six servings – two if you really want cake! The single layer of moist, flavorful chocolate cake is made with buttermilk for extra richness. On top is a generous Dark Chocolate Ganache icing (made with butter, cream, & cream cheese), adding a decadent touch. This Sheet Cake is small enough that your family can enjoy it as a special treat anytime, and also big enough to serve at an intimate dinner party. (Tip: you can always add candles for a celebration.) Not that it will last this long, but the clear lid helps keep it fresh on your countertop for up to six days.
Egg Frittata. $2.99. Made with a hearty base of 45% egg and 30% Swiss cheese, Trader Joe's Egg Frittata has a fluffy texture that belies its protein-packed ingredient list. Earthy cauliflower, fried onions, and the aforementioned cheese create the classic, belly-warming breakfast profile: craveably savory and utterly delicious. To amp up the protein content, our supplier uses egg whites, whole eggs, and whey protein concentrate—add it all up, and you get about 12 grams of protein and 15% of your daily calcium needs, at just 5 grams of carbs per fully-cooked Frittata!
Fully Cooked Organic Quinoa. $3.99. Already a best-selling dry "grain" in our grocery section, we thought the convenience of a Fully Cooked Organic Quinoa that heats in the microwave in less than four minutes or on the stovetop in about five would add great value to our collection of quinoa. Organically grown in Bolivia, the white quinoa seeds are harvested in spring, carefully washed, rinsed, dried, cleaned again and then sent to the United States, where they're expertly cooked to release their inviting, nutty taste and tender, chewy texture.
Gluten Free White Sandwich Bread. $4.49. In many ways, Trader Joe's Gluten Free White Sandwich Bread is very similar to the big brand name gluten free bread you'll find in other stores. It's dairy-, soy-, nut-, and gluten-free; it's made using no artificial flavors and no synthetic colors; it's crafted with brown rice flour. That's where the similarities end, and ours takes a turn for the better. Our Bread's recipe also includes sorghum (in the grass family, cultivated for grain) and potato flours, ingredients that help give our bread a better texture and flavor than the name brand.
Greek Lowfat Yogurts with Toppings. $0.99. Yogurt is a strikingly simple snack; a natural beauty, if you will. But even a natural beauty likes to play dress up every once in a while. With that in mind, we decided to take a timeless classic (Greek Lowfat Yogurt) and dress it up a little. And like any good food fashionista, we've got options, with Coconut & Almond Greek Lowfat Yogurt with Almond Granola and Vanilla & Pretzel Greek Lowfat Yogurt
Gyro Slices. $3.99. Trader Joe's Gyro Slices are crafted from primarily beef, with a bit of lamb, joined by a savory blend of seasonings like lemon, garlic, and oregano. They're fully cooked and sliced, ready to eat (or heat, then eat). Make a restaurant-style gyro sandwich with ease. We like to heat the Slices briefly in a skillet to bring out their best flavor. Grab a pita, some of our famous Tzatziki Sauce, and any other adornments you desire.
Heavenly Villagio Marzano® Tomatoes. $2.79. Trader Joe's Heavenly Villagio Marzano® Tomatoes are mini, snackable versions of the much-desired San Marzano tomato, grown in North American greenhouses, rather than fields in Italy's Campania region. These freshly-harvested tomatoes are sweet, delicious, and available year-round, not just for the brief, annual San Marzano harvest. The deep red, oblong fruits are excellent for eating out of hand or adding to salads. Diced and simmered with olive oil, garlic, and basil, they really live up to their namesake forebears as superb sauce tomatoes.
Jalapeño Sauce. $3.49. With a recipe that's more than 50% jalapeños, this is a sauce that's hot without being overwhelmingly spicy, smooth and creamy without any dairy (in fact, it's vegan!). Drizzle it over eggs for breakfast or employ it as a replacement for traditional enchilada sauce in an enchilada bake at dinnertime. Of course, chips are improved with a dip in this salsa (hey, "salsa" is just Spanish for "sauce," so even though it's not a salsa, per se, it is technically still a salsa), and its ever-slightly-sweet overtones are delicious with our Mini Chicken or Beef Tacos (found in the freezer case).
Jalapeño Sauce. $3.49. With a recipe that's more than 50% jalapeños, this is a sauce that's hot without being overwhelmingly spicy, smooth and creamy without any dairy (in fact, it's vegan!).
Key Lime Pie. $5.49. As tradition dictates, ours is made with sweetened condensed milk and true Key lime juice, which is pale yellow in color. Some pies bearing the Key Lime moniker are bright green – we can assure you that this is not a natural occurrence, but rather the result of the inclusion of synthetic color. The filling of our Key Lime Pie is pale yellow, just as a key lime's hue dictates it should be. That tart, tangy filling is nestled in a graham cracker crust – also traditional – and arrives unadorned, awaiting your meringue or whipped cream. There is intense debate over which of these two toppings adhere most closely to custom, and we just couldn't take sides on this one. At Trader Joe's, Key Lime Pie is for everyone, and we've chosen to leave this intensely personal choice up to you.
Lemon Shortbread Bar Mix. $2.99. Our Lemon Shortbread Bar Mix comes in parts, starting with a traditional shortbread crust with a twist… of lemon... You add butter to the mix and bake the crust. While it's baking, and the aroma of lemon begins to fill your kitchen, you mix up the filling with eggs and a bit of fresh lemon juice. Pull the mostly-baked crust out of the oven, pour the filling directly on top, and continue baking (complete instructions are on the box). When it's done, the shimmery yellow, vibrantly lemony filling bursts with tart, tangy, slightly sweet flavor. The subtly lemony shortbread crust is the ideal carrier. You'll want more than one bar. In fact, we recommend more than one box, especially since this limited-availability offering won't be around too long.
Lightly Salted Edamame. $1.99. There's a good reason for that: the relative simplicity and mild nuttiness of lightly cooked soy beans make them an ideal amuse bouche to the vivid flavors of sushi and sashimi. Of course, those very same qualities also make them an ideal addition to salads, soups, and stir-fries, and a superb standalone snack, too. That's why we offer Trader Joe's Lightly Salted Edamame, so you can enjoy edamame in any situation you want – not just when you make the trek to the sushi bar. Hand-picked in Southeast Asia, our supplier prepares each pod by giving them a light sprinkling of salt, then blanching until it's just done, and finally flash freezing them to retain their snappy, semi-firm texture. Once thawed, our Edamame is totally ready to serve on its own, but there's plenty you can do to enhance it, if you're so inclined: try heating things up with a dash of chili powder, poured directly over the pods: you'll get a nice, but not overwhelming, bit of spice as you squeeze the beans directly into your mouth. Or, you can shell the beans and add them to fried rice, succotash, or pasta.
Mini Vegetable Samosas. $3.49. The two-bite sized, three-sided treats are made from flaky, phyllo-type dough and filled from corner to corner with a curry-like mixture of peas, carrots, potatoes, lentils, onions, and Indian spices. Part of what makes our Mini Vegetable Samosas so special is the fact that they are 50% filling (versus around 35% found in other brands)—with vegetables that are tender, and mild spice that fills your mouth with warm flavors redolent of the Indian subcontinent. While the great flavor of the plentiful filling contributes a large part of their charm, it's perhaps equally as impressive that these Vegetable Samosas come with less calories, less fat, less sodium, and less carbs than the samosas we sold before. They are by no means "health food"—but they are thoughtfully made.
Mint Watermelon Flavored Black Tea. $4.99. Back again for a limited time, Trader Joe's Mint Watermelon Flavored Black Tea is a harmonious blend of tea, herbs, & natural flavors, including black tea grown in Java, Indonesia; spearmint grown in the U.S. Pacific Northwest; plus orange peel, licorice, and – our personal favorite – bits of dried watermelon. The result is pure, spring-n'-summer magic: notes of invigorating mint, sweet watermelon, and earthy spice, all intermingling in one thoroughly thirst-quenching Tea.
Moisturizing Gel with Aloe Vera. $2.99. It's light & non-comedogenic, offering up all the soothing, moisturizing & skin-cooling properties that ingredients like Aloe barbadensis leaf juice, menthol, allantoin, calendula flower extract, & arnica montana flower extract can provide. And unlike other Aloe gels on the market, ours is made without artificial dyes (don't let the blue bottle fool you—it's clear), parabens, or pthalates.
Mother's Day Jumbo Bouquets. $14.99. So this Mother's Day (that's Sunday, May 12th for those of you who struggle to maintain a relationship with a calendar), count on us to have the perfect blooms to express your love for mom in a major, dare we say jumbo way… with Trader Joe's Jumbo Bouquets. Available in an assortment of soft, springy hues (think pinks, lavenders, etc.), each big, beautiful bouquet will contain a mix of roses, spray roses, hydrangeas, chrysanthemums, alstroemeria, greens, and more. But just how big is big, you ask? Well, let's put it this way—our stores can only fit three bouquets in a bucket. So…pretty big, folks.
Neapolitan Puffs Cereal. $3.69. Trader Joe's Neapolitan Puffs are gluten free and boast a respectable six grams of protein per one-cup serving. They're sweetened with cane sugar and, flavored with real cocoa, freeze dried strawberries, natural vanilla flavor, and other natural flavors. The colors are legit, too, derived from natural sources like cocoa, strawberries, and purple carrot juice powder. Pour Neapolitan Puffs Cereal in a bowl and drown them with the milk or non-dairy beverage of your choice. Crush them up and use them as a topping for your cup of yogurt. You could even use them to deliciously decorate the top of a TJ's Cheesecake or the sides of a homemade ice cream sandwich.
Old Fashioned Waffle Cones. $2.79. Trader Joe's Old Fashioned Waffle Cones are everything you could ever want in a cone. Warm, vanilla, waffle-y flavor. Quality construction. Excellent "cone life." (They stay crispy even when the sun is challenging your ice cream to a melt-off...) And as their name suggests, ours are made the Old-Fashioned way, with simple, clean ingredients like organic wheat flour, brown sugar, sunflower oil, and oat fiber.
Organic Chicken Drumsticks. $1.99. These chickens were raised without the use of added hormones, never given antibiotics, fed an organic, 100% vegetarian diet, and given plenty of open access to the outdoors. Pair them with any number of our barbecue or basting sauces for even more juicy, flavorful results
Organic Cole Slaw Kit. $2.69. Our Organic Cole Slaw is a mix of chopped organic green cabbage, chopped organic red cabbage, and shredded carrots. This fresh, crisp base is triple-washed and ready to be tossed with our organic dressing (included and packaged separately). It's a classic slaw dressing that's creamy and slightly sweet—made with organic expeller pressed soybean oil and organic cider vinegar.
Organic Cole Slaw Kit. $2.69. This Complete Organic Salad Kit provides everything you need for the ultimate in classic Cole Slaw satisfaction. Slightly bitter, green & red cabbage shreds comingle with sweet shredded carrots for nonstop crunch. The included sweet & creamy dressing is seasoned with a bit of apple cider vinegar and lemon juice concentrate to brighten things up. Basically, it's everything you remember about Cole Slaws of backyard parties' past, only this Complete Kit is made with certified Organic ingredients! Dress it up or serve it as-is.
Organic Crumbled Feta. $3.49. The cheese inside every tub of Trader Joe's Organic Crumbled Feta is made for us in Wisconsin using 100% organic milk (from cows not treated with rBST) collected from local dairies. Once the organic milk is delivered to the cheesemakers, it is expertly transformed into firm, crumbly, salty, tangy, slightly buttery Feta Cheese, crumbled into bite-size (or smaller!) pieces, and packed in a resealable tub. The process is simple; the result is magical. Sprinkle it onto salads or pizzas, stuff it into sandwiches (hello, Gyro), or melt it atop a burger.
Organic English Cucumbers. $2.49. These are long, thin cucumbers with very few seeds and thin skins. Unlike most commercially cultivated cucumbers, these are not waxed, so you can eat the skin – you'll want to give them a quick wash, of course. Because of the scarcity of seeds, this variety is easier on the stomach and less bitter than other cucumbers – this has led some to call these "burpless" cukes. Really. Can't make this stuff up, folks. You can use Organic English Cucumbers anywhere you'd use any other type of cucumbers – in a salad, as a healthy snack, stuffed into a pita sandwich with hummus and tomatoes, blended with our Heavenly Villagio® San Marzano Tomatoes into a cool, refreshing gazpacho, or double up the cukey goodness by dipping them in our Tzatziki Dip…
Organic Fair Trade Wake Up Blend Coffee. $14.99. Wake Up Blend is a mix of organically grown, fair trade certified, 100% Arabica Beans from small-scale farms in Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, and Peru. The farmers who grow the beans are committed to organic and sustainable agricultural practices. They're also committed to cultivating truly excellent coffee beans. Here, those high quality beans are given a medium roast that brings out their best flavors and results in a smooth, well-balanced cup with bright acidity and just a touch of inherent sweetness.
Organic Grass Fed Ground Beef Patties. $6.99. Trader Joe's Organic 85/15 Ground Beef Patties come from organically raised cattle that are never given antibiotics or artificial growth hormones. The cattle are 100% grass fed, grazing on wide-open pastures – their diet of natural grasses and vegetation contributes to full-flavored, well-marbled beef that's rich in healthful Omega-3 fatty acids. Raising cattle organically, on grass, is a significantly more expensive endeavor than raising them via conventional methods.
Organic Italian Spaghetti. $1.29. The wheat goes from the field to our pasta producer, where it is ground into perfect pasta flour, blended with nothing but pure water, and then fed slowly through traditional bronze dies – resulting in spaghetti with a slightly "rough" texture that holds sauces beautifully. Our Organic Spaghetti is classic in every way. It has distinctive flavor and texture that's terrific with red sauces like our Organic Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms or your favorite creamy sauces. Try it with meatballs or Italian sausage for a traditional feast. Toss it with olive oil & garlic (aglio e olio) and some blanched broccoli for a lighter take on dinner. Make "purposeful leftovers" so you can combine it with eggs, bacon and leftover veggies for breakfast – this is a timeless Italian idea more Americans really ought to try.
Organic Kosher Dill Pickle Spears. $3.29. When you take pickles seriously (as we do), having a jar of our Dill Pickle Spears on hand, at all times, is a must. They're the best of their kind—starting with large organic cucumbers sourced from Mexico at harvest time (May-June). Our pickle experts cut them lengthwise, into fifths, then jar them in a classic Kosher brine that includes organic vinegar, salt, dehydrated organic garlic, and natural dill flavor.
Organic Mediterranean Style Salad Kit. $3.99. Cool romaine lettuce, shredded broccoli stalks and crisp radicchio form the sturdy base of this Salad, while celery, seasoned flatbread strips, and roasted chickpeas add some major crunch. This collection of cool, crisp, and crunchy components is rounded out with tender dried tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese, and made complete with a packet of herby red wine vinaigrette. And did we mention this complete Salad Kit is completely organic? A veritable Mediterranean vacation in a bag, just toss this Organic Salad Kit with some warm Gyro Slices or freshly grilled Pollo Asado Autentico, and it's easy to imagine sailing the blue-green waters of the Aegean with each crunchy, refreshing bite.
Organic Rainbow Cauliflower. $2.99. The brightly colored florets are grown in fertile volcanic soil in the Central Andes mountains of Ecuador, and yes, they truly are naturally that vibrant. Once harvested and hand-trimmed, the Cauliflower is individually quick frozen, ensuring those vivid colors stay so bright. Because there isn't anything else but Cauliflower in each bag, you have a blank (yet colorful) slate and so many possibilities before you. Go traditional and roast it with a little bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, or get fancy and pulse in a food processor for colorful cauliflower rice. Brighten up pasta dishes, gratin, salads, fried rice, crudité plates… You get the idea – colorfully, of course.
Organic Rosé Vinaigrette. $3.49. One of a trio of new organic dressings is Trader Joe's Organic Rosé Vinaigrette. Inspired by what is still arguably the country's trendiest wine varietal (#roséallday), this dressing is light, tangy, and slightly floral, with notes of fresh herbs and garlic. It's made with organic high-oleic sunflower oil, organic red wine vinegar, and, per its namesake, organic rosé wine vinegar—plus organic dried garlic, organic dried basil, organic dried oregano, and a bit of organic agave syrup to sweeten the deal. It's a fantastic addition to salads of all kinds, from simple green salads to cold pasta salads. Simply drizzle, toss, pour yourself a glass of rosé (wine, not Vinaigrette), and enjoy your meal.
Organic Sandwich Breads. $2.99. These are classic sandwich breads that just happen to be made with organic ingredients – including organic wheat flour, organic whole wheat flour, and in the Whole Wheat Bread, organic wheat and oat fiber as well. They're hearty, wholesome, versatile, and most of all, delicious. Grab a couple of slices to make a classic turkey or tuna sandwich. Make a quickie, single-slice-fold-over PB&J (or AB&J if almond butter is more your scene). We're also big fans of these breads, toasted, with a big breakfast.
Organic Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms. $2.49. We have you covered with a number of options on our sauce shelf, including Trader Joe's Organic Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms. It's not a complicated sauce; as a matter of fact, it's alarmingly simple – organic, California-grown tomatoes, Portobello mushrooms, and a specially selected blend of organic herbs and seasonings. Kettle-cooked in small batches, this chunky sauce is richer and thicker than a simple marinara – the mushrooms add a subtle umami flavor that really sets this apart from its peers. While it is an ideal partner for spaghetti, don't let the name limit you. Pair it with stuffed peppers, zucchini or butternut squash "noodles," or spoon it over creamy polenta. Breaded mozzarella sticks and hunks of crusty bread make dynamic dipping companions here.
Organic Sriracha & Roasted Garlic BBQ Sauce. $2.99. It begins with a Memphis-style barbecue sauce – a rich, thick, tomato-base; ample spices; and the flavors of hickory smoke and sweet molasses – and gets its particular point of view from our very own spicy, garlicky Sriracha Sauce. With barbecue season in full swing, our Organic Sriracha and Roasted Garlic BBQ Sauce is a must-have addition to your grilling setup. Use it as a basting sauce on Organic Chicken Drumsticks or ribs, kebabs, grilled shrimp or salmon. We've seen similar sauces selling in the $5 range (and up!) in other stores.
Organic Thick & Chunky Salsa. $2.49. Made with big chunks of organic diced tomatoes, organic tomato paste, organic onions, and organic jalapen~os, and spiced with organic cayenne pepper and organic dehydrated garlic, Trader Joe's Organic Thick & Chunky Salsa is fresh and flavorful, packing just the right amount of medium-level heat. And, boy, is this Salsa versatile. Sure, you can use it as you would any other—in burritos, tacos, quesadillas, etc. But you can also use it in less expected ways. Spoon it atop TJ's Carne Asada or fish. Pour a few jars into a slow cooker with a package of TJ's Pollo Asado. Use it as the sauce on a tasty Mexican-inspired pizza. Or, just scoop it up with TJ's Organic Elote Corn Chip Dippers.
Organic Tropical Fruit Blend. $3.49. Trader Joe's Organic Tropical Fruit Blend assembles organically grown pineapples, mangoes, strawberries, and bananas. We source the fruit from organic fruit suppliers in the best growing region(s) for each fruit – places like Costa Rica, Ecuador, Chile, Argentina, Peru, and Mexico. The fruit is harvested when ripe and most flavorful; to preserve those ripe and flavorful features, each chunk is individually quick frozen. This miracle of modern freezer technology means it's super easy to shake out a few chunks of these nourishing treats to add to your oatmeal or yogurt for breakfast and save the rest for another time. Our favorite way to use our Organic Tropical Fruit Blend is in smoothies. The flavors of these four fruits fuse fabulously, making frothy freezes that are indescribably delicious, leaving even us at a loss for words.
Pastrami Style Smoked Atlantic Salmon. $5.49. You could easily assume that, given its long history, there's nothing new about pastrami. There, friends, you'd be misinformed. You see, traditionally, pastrami is made with beef (pork is also used, but less commonly). This one's not so traditional; it starts with Atlantic Salmon, farm-raised from certified sustainable fisheries in southern Chile. The salmon is cut into fillets; brined in a blend of salt, cane sugar, dill, and black pepper; then cold-smoked in small batches using Maine hardwoods (maple and oak) and fruit woods (apple and cherry). After the smoking is complete – a process that takes about 20 hours – we head back to traditional territory to achieve the classic pastrami flavor profile. The fillets are hand-rubbed with a time-honored spice blend of coriander, black pepper, allspice, and paprika. And while there's no doubt you're eating smoked salmon, the distinctive flavor of pastrami will definitely be on your mind. And in your mouth!
Peony Blossom Scented Candle. $3.99. These Candles are made from a natural soy wax blend poured into an easily transportable, lidded tin. The lead-free cotton wick burns for a total of approximately 20 hours, all the while emitting an authentic peony scent that'll woo anyone who takes a whiff.
Peony Tulips. $7.99. Unlike their name might suggest, Peony Tulips aren't actually hybrids – they're tulips named for their striking resemblance to the bursting bloom of the prized peony. Rather than the single layer of petals you'd find on a standard tulip, Peony Tulips, also called Double Tulips, have multiple layers of sweetly scented petals, creating a dazzling, ruffled effect.
Peony Tulips. $7.99. Unlike their name might suggest, Peony Tulips aren't actually hybrids – they're tulips named for their striking resemblance to the bursting bloom of the prized peony. Rather than the single layer of petals you'd find on a standard tulip, Peony Tulips, also called Double Tulips, have multiple layers of sweetly scented petals, creating a dazzling, ruffled effect. They grow in an array of vibrant hues (pinks, yellows, purples, oranges, reds, whites, etc.) and boast equally exotic varietal names, like "Endless Love," "Margarita," and "Cilesta." And thanks to their hardy character, these long-lasting Peony Tulips will remain flashy and fabulous for up to seven days after you put them in water!
Pollo Asado Burrito. $3.99. Our hefty, flavorful Pollo Asado Burrito is relatively simple – tender, pulled chicken, black beans, spiced red rice, pepper Jack cheese, and our very own Trader Joe's Corn & Chili Salsa, hand-rolled in a fresh flour tortilla. But that simplicity belies a complexity of flavor and spice that makes it an easy selection for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Ready to Drink Cold Brew Coffee. $4.99. Trader Joe's Ready to Drink Cold Brew Coffee comes in a multiple serving bottle and, true to its name, is ready to drink. Just as a cold brew connoisseur would expect, the flavor here is bold & rich, with an exceptionally smooth body and significantly less acid than found in hot-brewed joe. With that acid and bitterness out of the way, you can really catch this premium Brew's hints of molasses and notes of walnuts and cocoa. Chill the bottle, pour over ice, and enjoy.
Red Caribbean Papaya. $3.29. This is especially true for a perfectly ripened, soft-as-butter, sweet-as-candy Red Caribbean Papaya, which you can find at Trader Joe's all year round. In their native Central America, Papayas are often considered a breakfast fruit, and anyone who's eaten a papaya bowl (scoop out the seeds, fill the cavity with yogurt, and eat by the spoonful) will have a hard time disagreeing. We think they make a pretty great addition to any fruit salad or fruit-based dessert, too. Of course, however you have your Papaya is entirely up to you, be it in a smoothie, salsa, or fruit tart, or simply sliced and enjoyed as is.
Seltzers With A Splash. $2.99. Each of our three Seltzers With A Splash is made using only carbonated water and two simple ingredients: organic Lemon and Ginger Juice, organic Blood Orange and Orange Juice, and organic Cranberry and Lime Juice, respectively. Each flavor includes just enough juice to delicately impart a refined fruitiness without becoming overwhelming. Each sip is light, slightly tart, just a little sweet, and remarkably refreshing. And each makes for ideal anytime easy-drinking, whether you enjoy it straight from the can on a walk around the neighborhood, or in a tall, frosty glass at the end of a warm summer day.
Shiitake Mushroom Chicken. $4.99. Trader Joe's Shiitake Mushroom Chicken is a dish that satisfies the umami craving you may not have been aware you had. Umami, the "fifth taste" that was first defined in Japan a century ago, is that savory, earthy "other" flavor that's sometimes hard to define. Shiitake Mushroom Chicken is bursting with umami! Its big chunks of dark meat chicken are joined by whole shiitake mushroom caps, green beans, and edamame soybeans. All those flavors are tied together by the umami-rich, ginger-soy sauce.
Simply Seasoned Tuna Burgers. $6.99. The flaky, pleasant-tasting Albacore is seasoned with a classic mirepoix – carrots, celery, and onion – and gently formed into perfectly portioned patties. They're mild-tasting yet flavorful and juicy and deliver 18 grams of protein in every 3.2 ounce Burger. Trader Joe's Simply Seasoned Tuna Burgers are ready to grill, pan-fry, or bake from frozen. Serve one on a bun with tartar sauce instead of ketchup. Dress with barbecue sauce on a warm roll. Or break them into pieces and serve on Corn or Flour Tortillas for fabulous fish tacos – excellent with our new Jalapeño Sauce.
Sparkling Watermelon Juice. $3.99. Made with fresh, not-from-concentrate watermelon juice, plenty of bubbles, and zero grams of added sugar, Trader Joe's Sparkling Watermelon Juice is the sweet and sparkling beverage of your warm-weather dreams. And each can contains just 60 calories, so if need be, don't hesitate to reach for this light, refreshing fizz to buoy you through your day several times a day.
Steamed & Peeled Baby Beets. $2.29. True to their name, these babies are peeled and cooked – steamed in a sealed pouch, specifically, to retain their starry nutritional profile – ready to enjoy right out of the package. There is only one ingredient inside every package; baby beets from the Normandy region of France, where the rich soils and cool summertime temperatures combine to produce ideal growing conditions for sweet and tender beets. Beets are terrific in salads, and if you want to enjoy them warm, simply heat them in the microwave (heating instructions are on the package) and add them to a mélange of other veggies, soups or stews.
Sunflower Seed Butter. $4.99. Our supplier takes sunflower kernels (of a specially selected Midwestern variety) and dry roasts them to enhance their natural flavor. The seeds are then crushed and mixed with just two ingredients – evaporated cane syrup and salt – until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy Seed Butter. You'll love this Sunflower Seed Butter for its fresh-roasted aroma and "nutty" flavor. You may also appreciate that it is 100% nut-free. Enjoy it spread on Trader Joe's Organic Whole Wheat Bread, or on the ribs of our Organic Celery Hearts. Add it to batter for non-peanut-butter cookies—or, pair it with our Organic Reduced Sugar Wild Blueberry Preserves for a unique SSB&J.
Sweet Potato Frites. $1.99. Trader Joe's Sweet Potato Frites are bright, golden-orange spears of sweet potato with the skins removed. They're steam blanched and par-fried before being frozen, so they retain their fresh flavor and vibrant color. They bake to a crisp exterior that yields to a creamy-yet-still-slightly-firm interior. They're mildly sweet (naturally), excellent with all kinds of dips – ketchup, mustard, ranch, sriracha, barbecue sauce, mayo, chili sauce…
Teeny Tiny Avocados. $2.99. They're personal, single-serve, "where have you been all my life"-sized Hass Avocados. Every mesh bag contains six of them, six Avocados of just the right size to slice into your salad or smoosh onto your toast. No wrapping up the other half for another time and hoping it's still good when you're ready to eat it. Trader Joe's Teeny Tiny Avocados are the fantasy-come-true for true avocado aficionados.
Tzatziki Dip. $3.49. For over 10 years, we've held a place in our refrigerator case (not to mention a place in our hearts) for Trader Joe's Tzatziki Creamy Garlic Cucumber Dip, the classic condiment and constant companion to Greek cuisine of all kinds. Made from a cool, creamy combo of kefir cheese, sour cream, thinly-sliced Persian cucumbers and flavorful herbs, we've been proud to offer this Platonic ideal of Dips as a pairing for pita chips, a spread for sandwiches, and a trusty sidekick for Gyros for a decade on. We're proud to say that its tart, yogurt-like flavor and accents of garlic, dill, and mint give it a cooling, herby profile that goes particularly well with spicy or otherwise savory selections.
Unexpected Cheddar. $3.99. Unexpected Cheddar has been a best-seller since it first hit our cheese cases, back in 2011. It presents itself as an aged Cheddar, and tastes like one as well. Until, it doesn't. That creamy Cheddar takes an unexpected turn, the flavor and texture evolve – suddenly, you might find yourself convinced you were enjoying an aged Parmesan. It's an unexpected pleasure, and as you would expect, it's a great Trader Joe's value, at $3.99 for each seven ounce piece, every day.
Whey Protein Powder Dietary Supplements. $11.99. The sources of protein in these Chocolate-Flavored and Vanilla-Flavored Whey Protein Powders—namely, whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate—come from cows that have never been treated with rBST. They're sweetened with cane sugar and natural flavors (with cocoa added to the Chocolate version).
Whole Milk Mango Kefir. $2.99. Trader Joe's Whole Milk Mango Kefir is made for us by the nation's leading kefir supplier, and fermented (cultured) for 14-16 hours, about 12 hours more than the culturing time for most yogurt. The added time allows the 12 active cultures to feast on the natural lactose in the milk, resulting in a drink that's creamy, smooth, a little tart, and just a bit on the fizzy side. Each serving provides eight grams of protein, and is an excellent source of vitamin D and calcium. Add a cup of Whole Milk Mango Kefir to your morning routine, enjoy a cup in the afternoon, or add it to a smoothie recipe for a kick of tangy-sweet flavor.

An Interview with Chris R. Notarile, Director of Batman: Geoffrey and Batman: Edgar
by Mike Haberfelner
July 2016
directed by Chris R. Notarile on (re)Search my Trash
Quick Links
Before we talk about your new Batman-projects,
and even though we have talked about this before [click
here], do bring us up to speed: Your brand-new Batman:
Dante - in a few words, what is it about?
is my attempt at Batman. Simple as that. I've
always wanted to try my hand at the Dark Knight, but never really had the
resources to do him right. Until now at least. I came up with the script
for Batman:
back in 2010, turning Batman
into a horror character was always
fascinating to me. And when I learned that John Carpenter was once attached to direct what became the Tim Burton film, I knew I had to give
it a go. And after six years, the elements needed for Batman:
Dante finally fell
into place and I made it happen.
presently planning to do two more Batman-fanmovies,
Batman: Geoffrey and Batman: Edgar - so what are those
about, and will they be at all linked to Batman:
They are in league with Batman:
Dante. They are
narrative pieces told by people who witnessed Batman in action. Each story
is from a different perspective with its own unique message. I won't spoil
what the plots to each are, but I will say they are as inspirational as Batman:
Dante presented the Batman
as a rather fierce force of nature, a genuine threat - so will that
portrayal at all shift in Batman: Geoffrey and Batman: Edgar,
and will those movies dig deeper into his actual backstory?
movies are not about Batman
or who he really is. You won't see him take
off the mask, you won't see him chilling with Alfred. He's the solution to
the problem. That's it. It's essentially how much of Batman anyone would
see if they met him socially. He's not going to talk to you. He won't take
you back to the Batcave (unless you're his girlfriend). He's just there to
terrorize evil doers and protect the innocent.
were your actual inspirations for writing Batman: Geoffrey and Batman:
Edgar, and is either of them based on any particular Batman
comicbook stories?
None of the stories,
Dante, Geoffrey
or Edgar are based off of anything in the Batman
canon, at least to my
knowledge. The closest comparison I can give, is that one episode in the
animated series when the group of kids all tell stories about what they
think Batman is like.
Of all the filmmakers I know,
there's not one who has made half as many (high quality) fan movies as you
have ... but you're diving into the Batman-world
only now - so why is that?
Because I pride myself on doing
a good job and before now, I did not have a Batsuit I was proud of. The
last thing you want to do is do something sub par. That's just a no no in
my book.
What can you tell us about
the intended look and feel of your movies?
Imagine a John
Carpenter movie with serious anger issues. That!
Anything you
can tell us about your intended cast yet, and why exactly these people?
Santiago will return as Batman. He is an amazing cosplayer and thoroughly
nailed what I wanted for Batman. Plus he has all the moves locked. As for
everyone else, I haven't begun casting yet as we are still trying to
acquire the budget. Which of course, is always a pain.
also want to have the Batmobile in Batman: Geoffrey and Batman:
Edgar, right? So how might that work on a limited budget?
is a good question. I will let you know once we acquire the funds to rent
one. If you happen to not see a Batmobile in the next two films... then
you know we didn't make our goal.
far as I know, you're currently still raising funds for Batman:
Geoffrey and Batman: Edgar - so do talk about your campaign for
a bit!

It's a GoFundMe page -
Basically, every dollar counts. So if someone wants to
donate 5, 10 or even 20 dollars, it will get us closer to our goal. So far
we've had some donations from some very amazing people and it's been a
real blessing.
Once your funds are raised, what's the schedule -
and any idea when and where those films might be released onto the general
public yet?
Filming will probably begin anywhere from a week to 2 weeks after we
reach our goal. It would all just come down to scheduling. I usually
tend to release my films immediately after that. So figure we reach our
goal by the end of the month, I will release Geoffrey sometime at the
beginning of August and Edgar about a week or so later. But again, that
is all pending we reach our goal in a timely manner.
Any future projects beyond Batman:
Geoffrey and Batman: Edgar you'd like to talk about?
this moment in time, I don't have any. I think I am just meant to do this
trilogy with Batman
and that's all. But things always change. So who
movies' website, Facebook, GoFundMe, whatever else?
You can
learn about me, as always at
and watch my films at
and if you wish to help support my Batman project,
And of course, you can watch Batman:
Dante here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVIemMDWn4s
else you're dying to mention and I have merely forgotten to ask?
