The Lewes Yacht Club Foundation is completing the finishing touches in preparation for the Ghosts of the Bay Pirate Party to take place Saturday, Oct. 26, at the Lewes Yacht Club.
The festive occasion includes dinner, music and both live and silent auctions and celebrates the colorful Delaware Bay history. The event is the foundation's biggest fundraiser of the year and raises money for disadvantaged children in Sussex County who do not have the opportunity to enjoy sailing, swimming and other activities that take place in and around our local waters. Nearly 14 percent of families in Sussex County live below the poverty line, with many children never having the opportunity to learn to swim.
In 2013, LYC Foundation donated $21,000 to help underserved children in Sussex County. The foundation worked with other nonprofits to identify the children who would most benefit from the kind of programs the Foundation funds.
The highlight of Ghosts of the Bay Pirate Party will be the spectacular auction items that organizers have been assembling. They include:
• A 10-day stay in a three-bedroom townhouse situated in a 200-year-old stone olive mill in Maussane les Alpilles, Provence, France. This region of France boasts Roman ruins, picturesque ancient villages, and fine vineyards. It is best known for its olive oils. The townhouse is within a short drive from the medieval village of Les Baux
• Two sunset cruises on luxurious sailing boats, either Moneypenny or Delgato
• A behind-the-scenes, personal tour of Winterthur estate, the former residence of Henry Francis du Pont that is now a premier museum, library and 1,000-acre preserve
• A beautiful canvas reproduction of N.C. Wyeth's painting, The Pirate.
In keeping with a festive pirate party theme, dinner dishes will be served at stations located about the main dining room. Entrées include hand-carved steamship roast beef and paella with shrimp, lobster, clams, chicken and chorizo. Pirate first class, Frank Baker will be providing music.
Partygoers are encouraged to wear costumes, though no one will be turned away without them. There will be plenty of decorations and extra masks and other pirate accessories.
"While this party offers a chance to get together and have some fun while recalling Delaware's very colorful history, it also gives us the opportunity to help local children learn to swim, learn about the environment in the bay area, receive scholarships for marine studies and to truly enjoy the Delaware Bay," says Janet Davis, president of the LYC Foundation.
The LYC Foundation was founded in 2012 with a mission to provide funding to enhance the potential of youth in sailing, swimming, and maritime activities and education. In 2013, the organization's $21,000 in donations went to the following:
• Sailing scholarships for eligible children to attend Lewes Yacht Club's Junior Sailing Camp
• Rehoboth Beach YMCA to provide swimming and water safety classes to eligible children
• Grants to Milton Boys & Girls Club, Rehoboth Boys & Girls Club and West Side New Beginnings in Rehoboth Beach
• College scholarships
The cost of the event is $85 a person or $1,250 for a benefactor's reserved table for six that includes an advertisement in the program and a listing on the Lewes Yacht Club Foundation website www.lycfoundation.com.
For more information or to purchase a ticket, contact Linda Dickey at 302-644-4492, or firstname.lastname@example.com.

I can't say enough about this deodorant. It's been a life saver! For the past few years I've had a problem with excessive sweat. It was completely embarrassing and annoying. And with record temperatures this summer, I couldn't have discovered this at a better time. Think it's important to note that excessive sweating could be an indication of a medical issue that may need to get checked out. Beyond that I really like the powder scent, it's fairly subtle and fresh smelling as opposed to Secret's Clinical Strength "light & fresh" scent. It sounds so cliche but I truly have regained confidence in social settings. I found a coupon for $1 off at Degree website. I would absolutely recommend this to friends/family.

Love is...Kreative Kakes
Sun, 12 Feb 2012 03:34:56 GMT —
Love is...cake.
The Quincy Mall was filled with cake bakers Saturday in light of the YWCA's Cake-A-Palooza. KHQA was in the midst of all the icing to see who won the bake off and who will benefit from it.
Kreative Kakes team Lisa Schreck and her mother, Iris Schultz, took home the Cake-A-Palooza championship.
"It's really exciting. We put a lot of work into it and I'm really glad it turned out so well," Schreck said.
After a three-hour cake competition against three other fierce baking teams, the Kreative Kakes duo came out on top, but it was no easy task.
"It's very nerve-racking," Kristen Yargus said. "You don't really realize what's going on around you because you're trying so quickly to get things done."
Yargus won last year's first Cake-A-Palooza competition and came back this time as a judge. Some competitors may have not taken home the first place trophy, but they helped make a difference in a worthy cause.
"The main thing we're trying to do here is create awareness about homelesness in Quincy," Executive Director of YWCA Mary Muehlenfeld said.
Cake-A-Palooza is sponsored by the Young Women's Christian Association. All proceeds benefit programs like Girl Empowerment and Supportive Housing.
"All the extreme cakes are donated to the shelters and the soup kitchens here in town," Muehlenfeld said. "So they'll be going to Quanada, Madonna House, Salvation Army, Horizons Soup Kitchen later [Saturday]."
"I love a challenge with the cakes," Schreck said. "Anything you can do and is unique so this is definitely a challenge and it goes to a good cause."
KHQA's also been a proud sponsor of the event for the last two years. Our own Lindsey Boetsch and Tegan Orpet also competed and took second in the Taste Test round.

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hi. I'm online and happy to answer your question today.
The most important thing for you to do right away is flush your eye under clean running water, holding your eyelids open with your fingers or the assistance of someone else, for at least 15 minutes. Have you done anything yet?
I have reviewed the complete ingredients of Funginix nail treatment on their website. Good news :). While it will sting a lot, and if a large amount got in your eye and you delayed flushing, it might cause a corneal epithelial defect (and, with that, a significant amount of pain) everything should be OK in the long run.
How is your vision in the affected eye?
Also, how much do you think you got in your eye?
Oops....looks like you went offline again :(
What is the take home message? Everything should be OK and you won't suffer any long term damage to your eye or vision. I suggest that, if your your eye is still irritated, using artificial tears 4-6x/day and as needed to sooth you eye.
Does this make sense to you?
And, now, the obligatory word from our sponsors: :o)
I hope that this information was helpful for you. Please, allow me get credit for my time and effort in assisting you and press the ACCEPT button for this assist. I will be glad to answer additional questions until you are satisfied. Thank you very much.Positive Feedback and/or Bonus is welcomed and appreciated.
I see that you are offline. I'll switch over to the Q&A system. This system works a lot like 'text messaging' but an email is sent to each of us anytime something is posted to this thread. We can continue to work on your question there..... :)

From Dutch To Diverse
By Judy Distler
Three hundred years ago in Teaneck...life must have been boring. Although one might not have missed playing PacMan on Cedar Lane, or hearing the loud hum of a lawnmower at eight in the morning. Teaneck in 1683 was also missing the exciting diversity that makes us so proud of Our Town today.
In the good old days, when there were only the Dutch and the Indians, an international fair or dinner could not have had much to offer. Today, you might have foods and costumes from 24 different countries. At Teaneck High School, where everyone shares the same goals and pride in their school, there are at least that many native languages spoken by members of the student body.
Being part of the local international scene means you can sample escovitch, baklava, pizza, curry, croisants, blintzes, or moo goo gai pan with a radius of miles. The selection at the Olde Trading Post on the Hackensack River was limited to local game and farm produce, and probably consisted mainly of corn bread; corn syrup; corn, meat and fish stew; corn dumplings; corn on the cob; and corn liquor. Today's supermarkets offer a heterogeneous population foods from all over the world. For those who want charm and warmth when they're shopping, there are small stores and gourmet shops scattered throughout town.
Apart from pleasing the palate, our delightful multi-ethnicity opens up a world of cultural experiences. At a 17th century gathering. the Demarests, Westervelts, Van Buskirks, and Kiersteds might have tried a dance or two, but they probably would have been inhibited by a need to exercise caution. After all, an unfortunate young thing had been subject to gossip for reportedly raising her skirts to high, and this when she was walking, not even dancing. Today, dance performances, concerts and theater are offered by talented students, residents and visiting artists. Enrichment programs, afterschool activities, and PTA-sponsored programs bring us a figurative taste of many land.
Diversity occasionally leads to differences of opinion, but usually these are the result of people of many backgrounds uniting behind a cause. Vocal citizens may cause sparks at public meetings, but there is hardly anyone who would trade a hot School Board or Township Council meeting for a quiet game of nine-pins. More often than not, diversity is synonymous with harmony.
Tee Neck of 1683 was not Utopia, and we haven't reached that state today, but, as Mayor Bernard Brooks noted at an ecumenical Thanksgiving service. "We're striving for perfection...and we're proud of the fact that in Teaneck we can say, we walk hand in hand today."

Dix is a village in Jefferson County, Illinois, United States. The population was 494 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Mount Vernon Micropolitan Statistical Area.
Among the first settlers around Dix were two brothers named Andrews (Arba and Nelson?), who came from Rome, New York, around 1830. One of them established a post office called "Jordan's Prairie", the name already given to the grassland to the south. Later he platted out a village, which he called "Rome", after his home town in New York. The post office was moved into the village in 1852, and the name changed.
Hiram Milburn of Kell, Illinois moved to Rome between 1853 and 1855. Milburn built a storehouse in 1853 and a hotel in 1854. It is said that, during the construction of the hotel, a wind blew the structure down into a pile, while two men were on the joists, but nobody was hurt. In 1855 Milburn purchased Leuty's Mill and moved it to Rome.
Although Rome Township still exists, the name of the town was changed to "Dix" when the village was incorporated in 1869. There was and still is another Rome, Illinois and the Post Office insisted that the name of this village be changed.
There are several stories as to the origin of the name "Dix". One is that the town was renamed in honor of Gen. John Adams Dix. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Gen. Dix sent a telegram to his agents in New Orleans stating: "If any man pulls down the American flag, shoot him on the spot". Although the telegram was intercepted by Confederate agents and never reached its intended recipient, the text reached the press, and Gen. Dix became one of the first heroes in the North.
Dix is served by the Norfolk Southern Railway. This was built around 1890. The rail line comes from the St. Louis area and turns southeast at Dix. It follows the west side of Casey Creek down to Mt. Vernon.

LA MIRADA, Calif. --- Adijat Adams and Amy Freet each recorded double-doubles with Aubre Mittel adding 15 points to lead Biola to a 62-47 win over William Jessup University in its final pre-conference tuneup Saturday night at Chase Gymnasium.
The Eagles pick up their second straight win and improve to 9-6 on the season while dropping the Warriors to 7-10.
Adams led Biola with 17 points and 10 rebounds in just 20 minutes of play while Freet contributed 11 points and 11 rebounds. It was the sixth double-double of the season for Adams while Freet recorded her second of the season.
Mittel, a freshman was making just her third start of the season, scored 15 points and added four assists and a steal for the Eagles, hitting 4-of-6 from three-point range.
Biola led the game from start to finish, but allowed the Warriors to stay close mainly due to 15 turnovers and just barely over 50 percent shooting from the free throw line.
The Eagles opened the game strong with an 11-2 run over the first six minutes. William Jessup closed the gap to four on a couple of occasions, but Biola took that nine-point lead to the half at 28-19.
Biola started the second-half strong, scoring eight-straight points after a Warrior bucket to open the period. The Eagles led 36-21 five minutes in only to see William Jessup score 10-straight and pull within five with 12:57 left. But Biola responded with a 12-4 run over the next four minutes to go back up by 13 at 48-35.
The Warriors would close the gap to seven with six minutes left, but Adams hit a second-chance bucket to key seven-point Biola run and the Eagles never looked back.
Biola held a 50-31 edge in rebounds, leading to a 19-9 advantage in second-chance points.
Sarah Petersen led William Jessup with 19 points and 11 rebounds and was the lone Warrior in double-figures in both categories.
Biola opens GSAC play next week, traveling to Santa Barbara to face No. 4 Westmont in its conference opener on Tuesday. The Eagles then return home to take on No. 3 Vanguard on Saturday. Both games tip-off at 5:30 p.m.

text: I'm considering a long lens for my 4x5 (Shen), something in the range of 240-250mm but yet one with no larger then #1 shutter and brighter then f/9. Fujinon 250mm/6.3 comes to mind (and there is one at KEH) but a bit over my budget right now (after spending almost 200$ just few minutes ago ordering Shen bag bellows with few accessories from Badger). What people think about Scheider's Tele-Xenar 250mm/5.5 in Linhof Synchro-Compur shutter ? Is it good for long applications (mainly landscape on transparancies), perhaps also some minor portraiture in the future. I guess the lens is an old (probably even a real legacy) design, apparently not coated (or single coated at most), but aside of this fact, is it a worthy consideration to compete with Fujinon 250mm/6.3 in Copal #1 ? How reliable are Synchro-Compus shutters ? Are they compatable with Copal #1 in terms of board mounting ? (Hole size, etc..) Is it fully usable onf regular field 4x5 like Shen-Hao ? Thanks in advance, Alex

Commierado Dems Tweet Sheriff's Side With Criminals
Colorado state Senate Democrats claimed on Twitter that most of the state's elected sheriffs are siding with criminals rather than law abiding citizens by joining in a lawsuit to overturn two contentious gun control bills.
The lawsuit, first announced on May 17, has now been joined by 55 of the state's 64 sheriffs and has been supported by others in law enforcement.
It seeks to overturn a ban on high capacity magazines and a requirement that background checks be performed for all gun transfers.
"I believe that is such a hollow statement that it deserves no real response," Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith told The Daily Caller News Foundation. "It shows a complete lack of real discussion [in that] if they can't make their case for why they did what they did, attack us personally. The citizens deserve a lot more robust debate than name calling.Read the rest here.
"But the reality is, that's fairly consistent," he continued. "Even when they pitched these bills, they couldn't back them up with logic and reason, so it doesn't surprise me."
Way to go Commierado Democraps! Throw a tantrum and start slinging baseless accusations like the whiny little bitches you are! Continue to remove the mask you hide behind and show everyone your true intent. A classic case of psychological projection.
They've got their panties in a wad.

NY DA Refuses to Prosecute Man Arrested Under SAFE Act
Finally someone in New York with some common sense and a backbone.
District Attorney Paul Czajka dropped a state SAFE Act charge Thursday in county district court against Hopewell Junction resident Gregory Dean Jr., who was the first person charged in the county under the controversal law since it was enacted last month.Read the entire story here.
Czajka told Town Justice Jessica Byrne that he would not prosecute the SAFE act violation.
"Although I believe that it is not for a district attorney to determine or make blanket policy," Czajka told Byrne, he said he would "decline to prosecute the unlawful possession of ammunition feed devices."

Another American institute is dead, thanks to Political Correctness and the homosexual agenda. As if there weren't already problems with isolated cases of sexual abuse in the BSA, now they've opted to let the camel's nose under the tent and openly nod and wink their approval.
Today's decision, it seems, will not stop that criticism, with some parents saying publicly they will pull their boys from the scouting program because of the decision. Most reaction, however, was favorable, following the decision this afternoon. One reaction from a North Dallas resident was that the next step would be to allow leaders to participate in the program, "regardless of sexual orientation."(source)
And that is the goal. To get sodomites in a position of authority over little kids. This is just another step, #26 of the communist goals to be more precise, in 'normalizing' un-natural behavior.
26) Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
Sadly, this is becoming the norm in this country with the help of the current administration.
I don't care what you do in your bedroom, but people don't need to be told that they MUST accept the 'alternative lifestyle' choice.
The BSA committed suicide today. I wonder if they'll regret their 30 pieces of silver.
I cannot support the decision made today on ethical and moral grounds for the sake of my children and my ultimate accountability to God. As for my boys and I, we're officially done with the BSA.
Hopefully this new organization is successful and spreads.

Ohio Man Illegally Arrested for Open Carry Sparks $3M Lawsuit
The law 'enforcers' don't even know the laws themselves, and now it could end up costing their city more than a pretty penny for their willful disregard and ignorance of the law.
An Ohio man has slapped local government with a $3.6 million lawsuit after policemen allegedly violated his Constitutional rights. Police detained Ray Call and confiscated his weapon because he openly carried his firearm into a store.
According to reports, Call entered a store late one night with his gun openly on display. The authorities were alerted, and fairly soon two policemen arrived on the scene. The police officers held Call in the back of the police car, took his weapon, and demanded that he identify himself.
Call refused to identify himself. According to Ohio Revised Code, an individual is not obligated to identify himself to a police officer unless the officer reasonably suspects that the individual is involved in a crime.
When police didn't get any answers out of Call, they threatened to charge him with reckless inconvenience and noise disturbances. Eventually, the strong-arm tactics intimidated Call into revealing his name, at which point police discovered that he had a CCW permit. Police returned his weapon and sent him on his way.
Some may say Roy Call was in the wrong for refusing to cooperate. Others will say the cops were wrong for detaining him with no evidence of any wrong doing.
Whatever your opinion is, just remember, a RIGHT not exercised is a right LOST.

CA Assemblyman Says Second American Revolution Has Already Begun
Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-Twin Peaks, California) pens a column for We Are 1776, a pro-freedom public policy journal.
His focus is on on agencies such as the California Air Resources Board (CARB), Agenda 21, Child Protective Services, the IRS, the DOJ, and the DHS. He ends his column with the following statement:
Yes, there is a 2nd American Revolution. It has already begun. The question is whether the tyrants who control out government will surrender peacefully or if we the people will have to use force to restore freedom to our land.You can read it all here.
Are you part of the American resistance or are you part of the problem?
But for all his effort on his column, he fails to mention Commifornia's latest round of Intolerable Acts.
- A 10 percent tax on all ammunition sold in California
- A proposed additional 5¢ tax per round
- Microstamping for all new guns in California goes into effect
- Gov. signs bill to confiscate guns from 'mentally ill' gun owners
All revolutions are local.

Congressman: Justice Dept. Wiretapped the House of Representative's Cloak Room
The wire tapping scandal goes further than just the AP.
Looks like the House of Representatives cloak room was tapped as well.
Go here to listen to the radio interview where California congressman Devin Nunes makes the claim on air.
Stalinesque, isn't it?

The Hazards Of A Militarized Police Force
The Captain's Journal addresses some issues with the militarization of our police force and why this movement is dangerous.
You will never be trained like a U.S. Marine who has spent every day for a year and a half in pre-deployment workup to do a combat tour of Iraq. Because you will never be trained in this manner, your tactics are dangerous, all of the time, and in all situations. I don't care how many times you have inexperienced Soldiers spend a week with you doing CQB drills. With the standdown in Iraq and Afghanistan, they oftentimes know as little as you. These tactics place people in danger when there are better alternatives.Go here to read the rest.
Now for the next step. Nor should you be trained like my son. It isn't within your province to do this. The militarization of the police and police tactics in America is an effort to sidestep Posse Comitatus. It's a way to have a standing army police Americans rather than have the existing standing army do the policing of Americans. It's a typical progressive, statist trick.
The sheeple are cheering for them as they shout, "save us!"
Even when they 'accidentally' shoot an innocent 'suspect' or shoot our dogs when they raid the wrong house.
We're all in occupied territory.

Gun deaths down 49% since 1993: Pew
Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation's population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm--assaults, robberies and sex crimes--was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.
But facts don't matter to the gun grabbers.
Read the rest here.

Ground Broken On The DHS Security Complex
|Rendering of future DHS Coast Guard headquarters, with green roof designed to capture and reuse water.
Washington notables broke ground on the future home of the Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday, symbolically starting construction on the biggest federal building project in the Washington area since the Pentagon 68 years ago.I thought Øbama said we were out of money, hence the sequester?
The project will bring together more than 15,000 employees now scattered in 35 offices in the region, placing them on a 176-acre campus strewn with historic buildings in a long-neglected corner of Washington, five miles from the Capitol building.
Department leaders hope the $3.4 billion consolidation will help the department fulfill its core mission -- protecting the homeland -- in ways big and small.
"It will help us hold meetings," Secretary Janet Napolitano said. "It will help us build that culture of 'One DHS.'"
Read the about this giant sinkhole here.
At least now they'll all be in one place.

May 1st - Victims of Communism Day
The Smallest Minority reminds us:
Today is the fifth annual Victims of Communism Day, a day to remember the people murdered by their own governments in their quest to achieve a "worker's paradise" where everyone is equal, where "to each according to his needs, from each according to his abilities" is the beautiful
dreamlie. R.J. Rummel, Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Hawaii, has calculated that the total number of victims of Communism - that is, the domestic victims of their own governments - in the USSR, China, Vietnam, North Korea and Cambodia is 98.4 million people. For all Communist governments during the 20th Century, he puts the estimate at approximately 110 million. And this wasn't in warfare against other nations, this was what these governments did to their own people - "breaking eggs" to make their utopian omlette.
Don't think it can't happen here.

An Audiophile Sampler
Recorded with Kimber's home-grown IsoMike technique, employing a specially made heart-shaped baffle and microphone array, the piano excerpts are from an upcoming John Atkinson/Stereophile/Robert Silverman release, and the instrumental ensembles offer a variety of perspectives, all of them startling in clarity.
But what caught my ear were the first 19 tracks, featuring a mixed chorus—massed human voices are one of the toughest sounds to capture on disc. The IsoMike technique, as demonstrated here, shows great promise, and I look forward to hearing complete works recorded with Kimber's setup.
Two weeks later, I was at the NAMM show in Anaheim, and what caught my ear this time was another collection of choir samples. This set, also on disc (a bunch of them actually), again sported an audiophile pedigree: it was recorded by "Prof." Keith O. Johnson of Reference Recordings fame.
But here is where the two samples diverge completely. Johnson's vocal recordings are part of a new product from EastWest Communications, a company that sells sound samples of live musicians and instruments to studio musicians for use in a computer/workstation recording environment.
Called Quantum Leap Symphonic Choirs, the set is a complete library of 24-bit recordings of the human voice, phonetically sampled and meticulously looped for playback with a computer and keyboard. What this means is you can type in the words to your score using a phonetic alphabet and special text editor, and then hear real voices sing your words while you play or program the notes. Punch up a medium-sized boys choir and have it sing the text from your tax return as a Bach fugue—and it actually sounds natural. The sample library includes five choirs—boys, alto (female), soprano (female), basses (male), tenors (male)—plus solo singers. All singers were recorded in position and chromatically sampled with multiple dynamics (non-vibrato, light vibrato, and heavy vibrato) and include slurred legato available on all vowel sounds.
And because Prof. Johnson was involved, the library includes three great-sounding simultaneous stereo microphone setups (close, stage, and hall), so users can mix together any combination of mic positions to control tone and ambience. This is a serious tool for composers, and because of its high resolution, the entire set weighs in at 37 Gigabytes.
The Quantum Leap Symphonic Choirs set hits music store shelves later this spring for around $1000. Good luck trying to discern high-resolution recordings of real voices from sampled phonemes from now on.

In riding the iron ponies hither and thither across the urban plains of Japan, I'm one railroad cowboy who would just love to experience the singular pain of a real-life horsemen.
That being . . . saddle sores.
"I almost never get a seat," I gripe. "Sometimes I don't even get a commuter strap. Heck, sometimes I don't even get the space to plant both feet."
"That's because you're thinking with your bottom and not for it. Use your head, man! There's always a way to rest your rump!"
The speaker is a seasoned veteran of Japan's commuter wars, a man who more often than not comes out on top . . . on top of a seat, that is. Let's call him "Densha Don," as in (cue the music for "Delta Dawn"):
"Densha Don, what's that strap you're hanging on? Could be your last resort for seats gone by!"
Densha Don says anyone should be able to get a seat anytime. The following, then, is his thinking man's primer to riding comfortably on the ever-crowded rails of Tokyo.
The Crack of Dawn Approach: "While the city never sleeps," says Don, "most of the people in it do. Just beat them to the station. If you out-early everybody, I guarantee you will ride in comfort.
"Then, if tired, you can do what most other early birds do — snooze all day at your office."
The Out and In Approach: "Instead of heading into the city, head out. Backtrack until you reach the train's departure point, then head in again. The way out is never crowded, and you are certain to get a seat at the line's start.
"Perhaps this will add hours to your trip, but just think of how smug you'll feel when you chug into your local station and watch your hometown fellows get pushed into the car like Play-Doh."
The Know Your Enemy Approach: "Commuters are creatures of habit, and if you take the same train by and large you will share it with the same passengers, day in, day out. Make it your task to recognize each person in your car.
"Learn everything about everyone: their baggage, their hairstyles, their fashion — or lack of it.
"Then keep notes of who gets off where. Once you identify who will be vacating which seat, squirm your way in front of that person.
"Then, when the seat opens, strike at once. Remember: On the train, he who hesitates is not only lost, he is lost in a standing position."
The No Seat Is Too Small Approach: "Sometimes there's a sliver of an opening between two passengers, big enough perhaps for a stuffed toy.
"So what? Smile, say 'Sumimasen' and take it. People may paint you with evil eyes, but they will still scoot enough to allow room for at least part of your body. Then, if you force yourself in tighter, you might be able to pop someone off their seat like a bottle cap under pressure.
"Whatever you do next, don't look up. If you feel guilty, you deserve to stand anyway."
Other approaches . . .
"Feign illness. Cough, wheeze and from time to time clutch desperately at your heart. There are 12 million people in Tokyo, and sooner or later you're bound to find some gullible soul who will let you sit.
"Or . . . carry a big cane. Lean on it as if your legs were made of papier-mache. If that doesn't get people's attention, 'accidentally' place the cane on top of somebody's toe — then lean again. That time they will notice for sure. And if they get mad, who cares? You're holding a big cane.
"Or . . . try carrying a screaming, wriggling kid. Japanese love kids, and someone will relinquish their seat for sure — which is the reason why I carried my son to work with me until he was 14.
"Next . . . just stand there and cry. Wail uncontrollably into some pathetic wad of tissue until everyone in the entire car is aware.
"Here there are two maxims to keep in mind: 1. Few things are as heart-ripping as someone anguishing in public; and 2. P.T. Barnum had it right. There's a sucker born every minute — and someone will give you a seat.
"Or do the opposite . . . laugh.
"Laugh like a lunatic — right at the person in front of you. And then maybe hold an engaging chat with an invisible friend. If you're lucky, half the car might soon decide they would prefer a different train, leaving plenty of room for you — and your friend too.
"Or . . . ogle the passenger sitting before you with fat, puppy-dog eyes and say: 'Can I practice my Japanese with you? Please?'
"Most passengers will hate this, but they may be too polite to refuse. At this point you have to utilize your natural 'gaijin' gift. In other words, be obnoxious, with dumb inquiries like: 'How long have you been in Tokyo? Do you like Tokyo food? Can you use a knife and fork? And what do you think of Tokyo girls?'
"Think of the times you have changed train cars to avoid some Japanese English-speaker from peppering you with similar dialog. And watch . . . sooner rather than later, your conversation partner will exit the train — in order to keep his sanity.
"I can't do any of the above," I confess to Densha Don. "I'm too shy. So I guess I'm doomed to flow with the crowd."
"Nonsense," says Don. "I've left out the most foolproof way — the one method that allows perfect commuting comfort each day of the year."
Which is?
"Stupid! Stay at home and telecommute. Ride your sofa, not the blasted trains."

I have a 5.5 year old, and I'm trying to get away from punitive parenting and yelling, but she challenges me so much more than her 2.5 year old brother does (so much for terrible twos) with her aggression, tantrums, destruction to property, whining, disrespect, etc... Any suggestions on how to change the dynamic in our home?
I think when you change, they follow your lead but if you're in transition--I could totally see where her behavior would really challenge you at a time when you need more support and encouragement that the change is a good thing. (I don't think I said that right... I'm hoping you understand).
So for me (as a parent that also came out of punitive and into GD and had very challenging children) I would find ways to help yourself stay calm and focused on your goal. Find your trigger points for getting into that negative mindset and figure out how to prevent getting there.
Things that worked for me:
* The first chapter or two of "Beyond Consequences, Logic and Control". Especially the concept that children only operate out of love or fear--so misbehavior is generally a manifestation of a child's fear (real or perceived). If I could keep that in mind, it just no longer made sense to me to be angry with a child in fear.
* Meditation--which I really didn't know how to do, but once I learned it and did it daily, it made a significant difference in my ability to keep myself calm in some really challenging situations. I did the Deepak Chopra 21-day meditation challenge and it was all guided meditations. I ultimately bought the series that they did for the 21 days (the "Freedom to Love" series) and I still cycle through them every 21 days; but they have a library of free meditations, too: http://www.chopra.com/library/guidedmeditations I don't find them to be the same quality of production and I don't click as well with the free library but they're free and they'll walk you through meditating.
* Before I found meditation, I took a lot of "not in the same room" breaks for a few minutes and when I was really desperate, I sat the kids in front of the TV to do that. During that "time out", I was essentially meditating by mentally telling myself "it's all about them... it's all about them..." Often, I was able to take a walk at some point during the day because dh works from home and even if I was having a good day, I would take a quick walk around the tiny culdesac next to my house mentally telling myself that--just to keep the focus.
* This is going to sound really silly, but I was desperate at the time: lots of mirrors with post-its that said "This is what your child is seeing" It was essentially meant to make me see my face when I was angry. :/
Not sure if this will help. The "Positive Discipline" series was wonderful, too. If you get "The Preschool Years" it should cover both of your kids.
I am right there with ya right now! I have a wonderful 5.5 year old daughter who talks to me with her hands on my hips and says things like, "Mother, when you tell me "no" that's rude and it hurts my feelings. So, please don't tell me "no." " Yep, it's lovely that she uses her words, but man I don't enjoy when she talks like that.
So, a few things that have been helpful for me...
1. Definitely, the book "Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control." Love that book, but love the message that is deeper...kids behaviors are either driven by love or fear. We can't control what they do, we can only control ourselves. This book has forced me to dig deep and decide what drives me to want to control my kiddo.
2. The book "Raising a Spirited Child" has been a lifesaver. It has helped me reframe my thoughts about my daughter into positive ones and realize that her spirit will be great as an adult...parenting her spirit will be challenging. I have recommended this book to many clients as well and all love it.
3. I have a mantra..."Is this life or death right now? Will it really matter tomorrow?" This helps me not to engage in power struggles and keeps the focus on what's really important. For example, my daughter loves to wear shorts with mismatched socks pulled up to her knees...silly! I choose not to engage this battle, she's her own person. However, she needs LOTS of sleep! When it's 830 at night and she's still awake, this is a problem. So, this is a battle I choose to engage and we move forward in figuring out how to help her get to sleep.
4. We have created a large village. My hubby and I work as a team to raise this spirited young lady. We have also asked for help from her teachers, her grandparents, and our friends. We know she's tough and there are certain people who can connect with her about different things...more than we can. We use ALL of these people to help us.
I'd love to keep in touch. I remember when Stella was 3 and she hit a little girl at daycare. We (parents and daycare provider) told her that she had to apologize to the other child before she could return to playing. She sat on a stair for THREE days before she apologized. While for some kids this may be mean and cruel, we knew for ours little girl, it was crucial to pick this battle. On day 3, she arrived at daycare, and said, "I have lots of time to think and I am finally sorry for what I did." What if we hadn't waited her out? Sometimes patience has been our greatest ally.
Good luck! We are in it together girlfriend!

Accountability in Government and Regulatory Policies: Theory and Evidence
This paper analyzes the political economy of regulatory and judicial appointment rules. I study a model of price-setting by a political principal faced with a firm with unknown costs, and endowed with an information-gathering technology whose efficiency rises with the effort exerted by two accountable supervisors (a regulator and a judge). This set-up captures the institutions of several international markets. The model predicts that reforms toward election rather than appointment of regulators are more likely the less efficient is the information-gathering technology, the less stringent are the investment concerns of society, the stronger are regulators' revolving-door motivations, and the closer is political competition. These predictions are consistent with US electric power market data. Moreover, in accordance with the model, electricity rates are lower and respond less to shock in input costs in states that elect their regulators or their High Court judges.

Internet Vulnerability Left Encrypted Data Exposed For 10 Years
It's been just a few months since the Heartbleed OpenSSL security flaw was discovered, and we're again learning about gaping hole in the widely used security protocol. The good news is that there's a fix. The bad news is that the vulnerability has existed for a decade, and we'll never know how much it was exploited.

I keep rediscovering how much I love Edna St. Vincent Millay's work. So I've decided to just give in to the selective poetry love. But only once a week. How fortunate I am that this occurred to me on a Monday, thus allowing me to give it the title "Millay Mondays."
I guess I could have just waited for Monday if I decided this on a different day, but I'm not that patient.
I would like to state for the record that I removed the exclamation points from this poem, because I really don't like exclamation points. Sorry, Edna.
Time does not bring relief; you all have lied
Who told me time would ease me of my pain
I miss him in the weeping of the rain;
I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old snows melt from every mountain-side,
And last year's leaves are smoke in every lane;
But last year's bitter loving must remain
Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide
There are a hundred places where I fear
To go,--so with his memory they brim
And entering with relief some quiet place
Where never fell his foot or shone his face
I say, "There is no memory of him here"
And so stand stricken, so remembering him.
Breaks my heart.

Fiddler on the Ceiling: The Art of Marc Chagall in Music
This season the Annapolis Symphony is celebrating the 130th birthday of the legendary visual artist and designer, Marc Chagall. Chagall fused his magical vision of fine arts and music with utterly unique paintings and designs for opera houses and theaters worldwide. This season showcases the works of composers celebrated by Chagall's radiant artworks.
Spring Session - April 18 & 25, 2017 at 7PM
Listening in Paris
Chagall was constantly drawn to the cultural vibrancy of Paris and eventually found great success there. However, La Belle France has had a rocky relationship with many of the composers featured in our season. Gluck, Beethoven, Wagner, all created controversy with their powerful statements. Also, until well into the 19th century, Parisian audiences had spectacularly bad concert manners and spent most concerts eating, chatting and arranging marriages! We'll enjoy some deliciously bad reviews and the happy benefit of hindsight. But without it, would we have been this wise and far-seeing?
Each Session is $40 - Space is Limited! Enroll today!
All sessions are held at Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Crew newcomer Cole Grossman has yet to experience his club's futility in Utah.
The midfielder is all of one game into his pro career, that being last Tuesday's first leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals.
After going the distance in the scoreless draw against Real Salt Lake, Grossman could get the start again Tuesday at Rio Tinto Stadium as the Crew seek their first win in Utah since May 6, 2006.
Not that the Crew are alone in coming up empty.
RSL are unbeaten in 33 home games in all competitions, including 25 in MLS play.
"I've heard from different people about Rio Tinto and how hard it is to win there, the altitude and whatever," rookie Grossman said. "I don't know why it's so hard to win there. I don't know what to expect. ... Maybe that's a good thing."
He won't be alone in experiencing RSL's homefield advantage for the first time.
Although the Crew are slowly getting healthy, the absences of defenders Chad Marshall (concussion) and Shaun Francis (hamstring) could mean rookie Rich Balchan will be in the first XI again alongside longtime minor leaguer Josh Gardner and Chilean veteran right back Sebastián Miranda.
[inline_node:329561]Like Grossman, all three are in their first season with Columbus.
"The good thing is Sebastian and Josh, even though they are new players, are really experienced," Grossman said. "Sebastián, especially, has played so many games on the back line. Rich played great Tuesday. As rookies we stayed together and had each other's back."
The Crew should have second-year midfielder Dilly Duka back after he missed the first game due to an abdomen strain.
Goalkeeper William Hesmer is a possibility. He is recovering from a fractured right shoulder suffered on Oct. 24 and was on the bench as third-string emergency goalkeeper Ray Burse faced RSL last week.
Forward Emilio Rentería will miss the match after he and RSL defender Nat Borchers were ejected for a second-half skirmish. That could leave Jeff Cunningham to partner Andres Mendoza in attempt to do what the Crew rarely do in Utah – score.
Columbus have a tie and four straight losses at RSL in the past five meetings while being outscored 9-1. The three most recent games have been at Rio Tinto Stadium, where the Crew have scored just once while allowing seven goals.
"A lot of people don't expect us to come out with a win," Crew midfielder Robbie Rogers said. "I think we can."
Thanks in part to the frozen pitch at Crew Stadium, it's no secret Real Salt Lake struggled to establish the possession game that led them to the 2009 MLS Cup and one of the best records in the league last season.
"They know how they want to play. We know how they want to play," Rogers said. "The key would be to stopping their game plan and putting our footprint on that and make sure it's at our tempo and our speed."
If there is an advantage for the Crew, it's that away goals count as the tiebreaker. If the Crew can put one on the board, it will force the home side to score twice to advance.
"We're not going to sit back and defend," Crew coach Robert Warzycha said.

Enthusiasm Gap Almost Disappears
While Democratic-leaning voters' enthusiasm about voting in the 2012 election has remained essentially unchanged since September, there has been a big drop in enthusiasm among Republican-leaning voters. In September Gallup found 58 percent of Republican voters were more enthusiastic about voting in the upcoming election but now that number has dropped to only 49 percent. What was once a huge enthusiasm in favor of the GOP has narrowed to near parity. From Gallup:
While this is good news for elected Democrats, elected Democrats didn't earn this. They have not managed to excite their base for 2012.
Elected Democrats are merely benefiting from the fact that the Republican leaders have managed to sap the energy out of their own supporters, bringing their enthusiasm down to roughly the level the Democratic leaders had already reduced their own base to months ago.
Sadly though when you have a two party system you don't need to be doing a good job to win, you just need to be doing less lousy than the other party.

AUBURN HILLS -- The oft-maligned Detroit Pistons, through a combination of streamlined rotations, rest and some easing of the schedule, find themselves on their hottest streak of the season.
The Pistons won for the fourth time in five games Sunday, and the second time in three days against a likely Eastern Conference playoff team, with a 96-94 win over the Milwaukee Bucks.
In a matchup of teams both coming off wins over the Miami Heat in their most recent games, the Pistons (11-22) scored the first 13 points and didn't trail until the Bucks took a 94-92 lead after a late 11-0 run.
Tayshaun Prince scored the final four points to win it. His short hook tied the game, after which Monta Ellis shot a baseline air ball and the Pistons regained possession.
Prince posted up Luc Mbah a Moute, was fouled on a spin move and hit both free throws with 10.9 seconds left.
The Bucks (16-13) tried to free up Ellis but Jason Maxiell flashed a double-team to help Brandon Knight, and Ellis was forced to dribble for a 17-footer from the right wing rather than a potential game-winning 3-pointer. The shot rimmed out at the buzzer.
The game was the Pistons' second of five home games in a row, with the next three against the Sacramento Kings, Atlanta Hawks and Charlotte Bobcats.
--The Pistons jumped to a 30-23 lead after the first quarter because of big advantages in rebounding (16-4) and field-goal shooting (58.3 percent to 40 percent). Greg Monroe and Jason Maxiell each had more rebounds (five) than the entire Bucks team.
--The Pistons are on their best streak of interior scoring this season after 60 points in the paint. They had 48 points in the paint in Friday's win over Miami and 56 in Wednesday's double-overtime loss to Atlanta.
--Maxiell and Greg Monroe both had double-doubles.
403 Forbidden
--John Henson did not play. The rookie forward from North Carolina has slipped out of the Bucks' rotation. The Pistons, you might recall, thought highly of Henson going into the draft, before Andre Drummond slipped to them at No. 9 overall.
--Rodney Stuckey (sprained ankle) missed his second consecutive game for the Pistons.
--Ersan Ilyasova and Ellis combined for 54 of Milwaukee's 94 points.
The Pistons drew a relatively good crowd with the bounce from Friday's win over Miami. They seemed to draw energy from the larger audience once again as they evened their home record at 8-8.

Susan Marshall: Covering North Routt
August 2, 2013
I found it curious when I studied the "news contacts" in the paper. In addition to the central coverage of Steamboat Springs and special topical areas, I discovered that reporters are assigned to cover the news in South Routt and Hayden. It's comforting to see a commitment to covering two important communities outside of Steamboat Springs.
My problem? I live in North Routt, a vibrant and close-knit community that begins just 7 miles north of Steamboat and covers more than 400 square miles. We have great diversity with many newsworthy events but little coverage. It seems odd that there is little interest in our goings-on.
We are home to two state parks, numerous hiking and skiing trails, great restaurants that also serve as top-notch musical venues and community centers and several guest ranches ranging from affordable cabins to high-end and highly revered "dude" ranches. We also have some of the most productive ranches in the county, and many multigenerational families and others are ensuring these properties remain as the rural land we all love.
Our community has its center in Clark, anchored by the Clark Store (which is our post office, lending library, liquor store, deli, grocery store and overall "meet your neighbors" gathering place), the North Routt Community Charter School (delivering the highest quality education to 80 K- through eighth-grade students in a state-of-the-art facility), the North Routt Preschool (providing a solution for working parents with prekindergarten children), a North Routt Community Church that meets weekly and one of the two North Routt Fire Protection District fire stations.
Not far from Clark is the eclectic Hahn's Peak Village, complete with a historical society and several museum buildings, reflecting the history of its economic and political importance within the county.
Besides the annual Steamboat Marathon (the course of which occurs primarily in North Routt), we offer the Glide the Divide Nordic skiing race and have reintroduced July Fourth fireworks at Steamboat Lake just this year. I know I've failed to mention many organizations, events and activities that are a critical element of our community. I learn about many in our tiny free newspaper, North Routt Rumors, but wouldn't it be nice to see them in the Steamboat Today? I'm sure visitors and other Routt County residents would like to know more about what is happening in North Routt and the issues it faces.

Hey, everyone! I'm a couple days late, but still fully intact! As December continues, it's time for me to review another holiday movie on my Disney movie podcast, Mousterpiece Cinema! If you're new to the show, why not take some time over your well-earned holiday break to catch up? The 24th episode, where I review the 1994 family film The Santa Clause, is available now. I believe in Santa Claus, but I'm not so sure about Tim Allen's Scott Calvin.
As always, I'd be so thankful if you could write a review and give the show a star rating on iTunes. Finally, if you like what you hear, make sure to tell your friends! New listeners are always welcome.
You can find the links to the show's iTunes page, Facebook and Twitter pages, and blog in my signature!

Handcuffs a no-no?

Handcuffs are a problem waiting to happen,
Ever watch COPS? Ever see how many in shape, trained LEO's it takes to get the cuffs on a recalcitrant suspect? You are going to do this, alone, untrained, in your house? BS, you try, you are going to get at worst a beat down, and more than likely, the cuffs on you and him with your gun.
Its really easy. If he is in your house without permission and committing a felony, if you did not invite him in, if you are afraid that he is going to hurt you, you can SHOOT HIM. if you prefer NOT to shoot him, then tell him in small words to get the hell out or you will shoot him. If you wish, you might be generous and tell him lay down and spread them or you will shoot him. If he refuses, you can feel that he is figuring out how to hurt you, and you can SHOOT him.
Find me ONE SINGLE CASE where an honest law abiding home owner was ever charged or convicted for shooting a burglar or strong arm robbery suspect in their own home. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN. If the person is being charged, it is because of other circumstance. IE a drug deal gone bad, or someone invited them in, but after 25 beers, when the invitee had worn out there welcome by hitting on the inviters GF, inviter shoots invitee, no thats not going to fly.
BUT if you are joe homeowner, watching TV at midnight when someone kicks your door open and starts demanding your money and you put three center of mass, or if you come in from the deck and charlie crackhead is in your Living room boosting your TV, and you pop him, your NOT going to jail. More than likely, the kind of guy who breaks into your home is going to have a record that has its own hard drive down at the Local PD. Its a simple fact, most crimes are committed by a very small percentage of the population. When you find yourself confronted in your own home by a invader, that is the lifestyle this person has chosen. More often than not, you will get a very private "attaboy" from the cops who show up. They will know his name without looking for ID, When the Cops say, "bad day to be you, Joe Bob," or "Tyrone", Or "Hector" to the body on your floor, relax, you did a good thing.
I get sick and tired of people thinking that if you do not follow a prescribed set of steps in exactly the right order, you are going to spend your life behind bars if you shoot. NO you are not, IF you are a good law abiding Citizen and your worst "crime" to date has been a speeding ticket driving home from church to catch the rest of the first half of the football game. If you have some drug history, or a few D&D charges from your years of being a jack ass, you might have some trouble, but if like most americans, your worst thing was a traffic citation, or you got caught stealing the rival high schools mascot and you had to pick up trash for two weekends, NO you are not going to jail for shooting a hoodlum in your house.
Handcuffs are a problem for anyone except the Law, and maybe a few who have wives who like that sort of thing. other than that, All I see out of it is a lawsuit.

[QUOTE=Slick Pinkham;1581947]Point is he 's better at defending SFs . He won't be spending nearly as much time on the court guarding them when he's playing alongside Danny. So no he won't be guarding the same players. Danny can't keep up with very many 2 guardsHe guards the best opposing wing, no matter what, so he is chasing exactly the same player around. Do we have to keep repeating this fact?
That's a very backwards way to develop a player. We shouldn't force our best player to learn how to play a power game when he's just now figuring out how to use his speed and quickness against guys his height. Why make him adjust when he's the our best player and All-Star? I want him to comfortable, and he's said himself he feels more comfortable at the 3 because of matcups. People seem to forget that.playing the 2 allows him to use his huge length advantage, with no speed disadvantage either, against nearly every player at his position, whereas some 3s he has to guard are much heavier and stronger (see LBJ).
His defensive rebounding numbers should be the same per-minute once Danny comes back, since (again) he is guarding and boxing out the opposition's best wing player, same as always. [/
Again, he'll be guarding SGs more often so not only will he be in worse rebounding positions, he won't able to keep the opposing SF off the boards.
Disagree. One of these days maybe, but not right now. He's not a good enough post player.Playing the 2 on offense should greatly help him as a passer and playmaker, with a huge size advantage over the man guarding him.
Please do.I'll stop there too.
