Deep Concerns as Climate Influences Gulf Stream Flow
By Mahmoud Darwish $12.00
By Zachary Karabell 17.79
The tone of the White House and some of Israel's other Western allies shifted slightly Monday from unequivocal support to "concern for the growing number of casualties" and calls for an immediate cease-fire between Israel and Hamas as the Palestinian death toll in the now two-week operation by the Netanyahu administration climbed to 548.
On Thursday, all 100 U.S. senators—including progressives Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Al Franken and Sherrod Brown—passed an AIPAC-drafted resolution supporting the Netanyahu government's military invasion of the Gaza Strip.
David Rothkopf at Foreign Policy magazine points to the civilian deaths on a beach in Gaza and airspace over Ukraine to argue that using "the chaos of combat" to achieve complex political ends is futile.
As the death toll in Gaza passed 260, Israeli troops and tanks proceeded with their operation in the area Friday after the launch of a military ground operation Thursday night. The initial aim was reported to be the destruction of tunnels dug by Hamas that could be used to launch attacks on Israel.
Efforts in Cairo to reach a cease-fire agreement apparently failed as Israel's Netanyahu government announced the beginning of a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip on Thursday.

It's difficult to have a conversation with someone who wants to get rid of you. That is why Hamas militants and Israel's right-wing-dominated government are each on such a destructive path.
After a week of relentless bombing by Israel's Netanyahu government, foreign and local doctors on the scene in Gaza and a Palestinian attorney plead with the international community to make the assault on civilians there stop, "Democracy Now!" reports.
In a government driven mad and violent by self-interest and fear, the Israeli legislator is battling enemies many of her peers appear not to see.
Half of the reported 101 Palestinians killed by an Israeli offensive over the last week are estimated to be women and children. No deaths have been reported in Israel. Palestinian human rights attorney Noura Erakat and Joshua Hantman, senior adviser to Israel's ambassador to the United States, debate the question of what should be done.

Benjamin Netanyahu is again beating the "Israel is a Jewish state" drum, and now wants to have it legislated into Israeli organic law.
Israel said Thursday that it was halting peace talks with the Palestinians after their unity deal with the Hamas rulers of Gaza, as the faltering U.S.-backed process approached its deadline.
AP/Adel Hana
Fatah and Hamas, the two Palestinian factions that have for the last seven years ruled the separate territories of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, announced Wednesday they will form a unity government.
Israeli and Palestinian negotiators held U.S.-mediated talks Thursday to try to revive their crisis-hit peace process, a Palestinian official said, as a report of a possible breakthrough was played down.
Washington's top diplomat wrapped up a lightning visit to Israel on Tuesday but was to return within 24 hours as speculation grew that a jailed U.S.-Israeli spy may be key to saving the peace talks.

While Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ranted against Iran, his government was preparing to implement the Prawer Plan, a blueprint for the expulsion of 40,000 indigenous Bedouin citizens of Israel into state-run, reservation-style townships—just one element of an emerging program to dominate all space and the lives of all people between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean.

The administration has set expectations for President Obama's trip to Israel so low you'd think he was making another visit to Ohio. Yet this is a very consequential journey because it comes at a moment when hopes for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are fading away.
Emad Hajjaj, Cagle Cartoons, Jordan —
The covering over a painting of a slave performing fellatio on a white man has been removed at the Newark Public Library after much controversy; foreign universities are struggling to compete with elite American ones in the online education market; meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal has revealed that the National Counterterrorism Center has been given massive amounts of authority to surveil Americans via datasets. These discoveries and more after the jump.
Naftali Bennett, a "forty-year-old settlement leader, software entrepreneur, and ex-Army commando," is the face of Israel's new religious right, and he's ready to give Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a run for his money; a woman stole a train in Sweden and crashed it into an apartment building; meanwhile, although Jodie Foster's coming out speech certainly made a statement, some LGBT activists argue she should have done so sooner. These discoveries and more after the jump.

"Embracing 'screw-both-sides' nihilism and doing nothing else [about the Israel-Gaza conflict] is so tempting because it appears to provide relief from the burden of paying any further attention to the horrific violence or bearing responsibility for any of it," but it means ignoring the U.S. government's total support for Israeli aggression, Glenn Greenwald writes.
AP/Tsafrir Abayov
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Syrian President Bashar Al Assad have an important thing in common: When a part of the populations under their control rise up against them, they do not negotiate or compromise; they bomb the rebel civilians.
Outside the White House on Thursday night, a pro-Israeli group from George Washington University sang traditional Jewish songs, danced in circles and smiled while others protested U.S. backing of recent Israeli airstrikes that have killed 19 Palestinians.
Rockets fired from Gaza killed three people in southern Israel on Thursday as part of a response to Israel's killing of Hamas' military chief the day before. Roughly 200 rockets were fired in all, three-quarters of which were destroyed by Israel's missile defense system.

It is no surprise to find a businessman who is clueless with respect to America's international relations, but when a businessman is running for the American presidency, you would expect an effort to read and learn.
Romney and Obama face off in their first presidential debate next week. Whom do they need to reach? What topics should they address? Are their portrayals of American workers accurate or productive? How should the U.S. respond to Benjamin Netanyahu's speech about Iran's uranium enrichment program? The "Left, Right & Center" panelists debate these questions on this week's show.

The outburst of anti-Americanism sweeping much of the Arab world was ignited by an off-the-wall film insulting Muhammad, but the underlying outrage is fed by decades of resentment against the U.S. and its ally, Israel.

Israel's Channel 10 reported this week that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "is determined to attack Iran before the U.S. elections" and that Israel is now "closer than ever" to a military strike intended to foil Iran's nuclear ambitions.

There can be no confusion when the Republican candidate, speaking from Jerusalem, says "Diplomatic distance in public between our nations emboldens Israel's adversaries" that he refers to the frosty relationship between President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
"Democracy Now!" hosts a debate inspired by the determination of a panel appointed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel's settlements in the occupied territories are legal.

On Super Tuesday, the most important matter facing the country was not who will win the Republican presidential nomination but whether Israel will drag the United States into a war with Iran.
Employing the time-honored strategy of reappropriation, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted a spoof video, based on his speech at Tuesday's AIPAC session, in which his words about Iran's alleged plans for its nuclear program are intercut with footage of a cartoon classic and mixed to a lively techno beat.

After reaffirming his support of Israel at an AIPAC conference on Sunday, President Obama met on Monday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, where one particular issue loomed large: Iran.
White House / Pete Souza
AP claims a source familiar with high-level American-Israeli discussions says Israeli officials have made it clear they will not alert the U.S. before any attack by their country on Iran.

In the same week that Presidents Obama and Sarkozy accidentally "outed" Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a liar in front of a crowd of senior French journalists, WikiLeaks released a diplomatic cable showing Netanyahu feared being held responsible for his role in inciting the 1995 assassination of left-wing Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
In a hot mic moment now heard around the world, French President Nicolas Sarkozy was reportedly caught gossiping to President Barack Obama about Israeli Prime Minister Benajmin Netanyahu at last week's G-20 summit in Cannes, proving that not even heads of state ... (more)
Less than an hour after Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas finished speaking before the United Nations General Assembly about his wish for statehood, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to the lectern to give his side of the story. (more)

Fall planting white sweet onion plants: your experiences?
Bought a bunch of 'white sweet onion' plants (3/16-3/4" diam.), at Lowes a few days ago. They also had cole plants that I plan to try. Have never seen fall onion plants in this zone before, but feel the green onions will be a spcial Thanksgiving treat.
Would you suggest blood meal, kelp, etc for the fall crop? What diseases in fall? It is still in high 80s here-so should I shade them? Any other suggestions for max success? Thanks.
My best gardens are usually my fall gardens. Fall green onions are very easy to do. I always put back a couple hundred sets I buy dirt cheap at the end of spring, store them in my fridge, and plant them about now. They are milder growing in the cooling down fall than the warming up spring. I fertilize well for the spring crops because I'm looking more for bulbs but do not for the fall since I'm only looking at green onions.
Thanks, Brook. Per your advice, I will plant these in the former potato bed to keep these green onion size. Like you, I have keept extra sets in frig for fall, and had fair results, but am hoping these sweet onion plants are indeed sweet. The sweetest green onions I have ever eaten are the ones from my potato onions in the spring.
Today, I got an email from Southern Exposure, and included was a Fall/Winter Veg Gard Quick reference suitable for Zone 6b/Ctrl VA. Printed it for my notebook and will forward it to you if you like, as your zone is probably similar. They list suggested planting dates for many crops.
They also mention an EvergreenHardy White Green Onion,Deep Purple. Have to research that one. They say, the colder the winter, the more purple color. No mention regarding flavor.
Does anyone know of a source to find onion sets for this fall? I'm in middle GA and would love to plant sets for winter and spring onions - wish I'd thought of this like BrookW earlier this year. Most of the usual seedhouses don't seem to have any sets for sale...

Posted October 1, 2010
Deborah Kampmeier has written and directed an atmospheric film about life in the South (Alabama to be specific) in the 1950s, using this confused period of time to examine how a child can rise out of her squalid surroundings, replacing her disappointments in expectations of family, friends, and trauma with tenuous grip on the dream of becoming a performer like her idol Elvis Presley.
Fortunate for Kampmeier she cast the rather amazing young Dakota Fanning to inhabit the role of the feisty but abused Lewellen, a headstrong prepubescent girl whose mother deserted her at birth, leaving her to live with her abusive Lothario, worthless father (David Morse) whose current paramour is his ex-wife's sister (Robin Wright Penn) who leaves Lewellen also when the father's abuse and desertion overwhelm. Lewellen's sole friend is young Buddy (Cody Sanford) who shares show and tell games with Lewellen until a promise to find tickets for an Elvis Presley concert includes a 'favor' for Buddy's older friend (the rape sequence that is germinal to the film and all the more powerful for its lack of graphic detail). Lewellen's life crumbles: even her Bible thumping grandmother (Piper Laurie) can't console her, her only support comes form her old African American friend (Afemo Omilami) who is Lewellen's sole visionary source for Lewellen's gift for music and soul jazz. Some change comes when Lewellen's father is struck by lightning, ending his career of philandering and making him dependent on Lewellen for all his needs. How Lewellen rises out of all of this stagnation and arrives at an important life change forms the resolution to this story.
There is not a lot that is novel about this film, but the flavor of the missing connections is improved by the general feeling of the Southern situation in the 50s well captured by the camera work and the music. Dakota Fanning continues to show a remarkable degree of depth in her talent as an actress. Watching the film for her performance alone is worth the time. Grady Harp

The power lies in the word
He had spent his life in a high position and was highly regarded. He is described on the pages of Scripture as "valiant." Naaman wasn't one to take orders, but to give them. But now this commander of the army of Aram was ready to listen to desperate measures, ready to follow the advice of the lowly. You can be sure he didn't like taking the suggestion of a servant girl from Israel.

He has a weird name, but i reallllly loved him, both personalities. He was hot either way. I wish the series was longer though.. i could watch this show forever!

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
The Marylebone Hotel
47 Welbeck Street, London, England, UK
Neighborhood: Marylebone
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Naming a hotel after a neighborhood is a clear sign that your aim is to more or less sum the place up, and in that the Marylebone Hotel succeeds. Once an outlying village, now part of central London, Marylebone itself is an odd mix: its quiet, rather posh residential neighborhoods and its smallish, highly individual retail offerings lie within striking distance of Oxford and Bond Streets, home to some of the world's best (and busiest) shopping, not to mention Hyde Park and, at a stretch, the theatres of the West End. Not a bad all-purpose home base for a visit to the capital, and not a bad place for a boutique-influenced luxury hotel like the Doyle Collection's Marylebone Hotel.
With 257 rooms and suites it's not exactly a mom-and-pop operation, but the Marylebone rarely feels anywhere near as large as it is. The style is 20th-century classic, with some Art Deco overtones, and if the standard rooms aren't quite palatial in size, the feel is luxe through and through. There's a ton of meeting space and a bustling restaurant and bar, as well as a fully equipped gym, spa and indoor pool. It's a worthy option for any visit to the West End, but for shoppers in particular — this is about as close as you get to sleeping at Selfridge's without stowing away in the department store's home furnishings section.

What I liked:
Lovely pool, sauna and steam room facilities. Very pleasant to have a swim to unwind from a busy day. Complimentary chocolates each day
What the hotel could do better:
Rather surprised that 'Toast' was an extra over and above the Full English breakfast. Most hotels I have been to include toast in this price (which was not cheap). I wouldn't have had it if I had realised! Everything else was so nice left a 'bit mean' flavour' in the mouth. (Not as nice as toast!)

Dress Up Your Home with a Console Table
With a console table, versatility and style make a winning combination to expand your home decor. You can add one of these beautiful tables to your entryway, hall, living room, bathroom...anywhere you need extra storage with a dash of personality.
Console tables come in a variety of shapes, and can feature either open or closed storage. Crescent, or demi-lune tables impart a sense of elegance. They are a good choice is smaller spaces, with no sharp corners to intrude into a walking area. Rectangular tables can be used for a wide range of purposes, as can chests with concealed drawers or shelves.
The materials may make the look for you. Glass and metal are a seamless fit in a modern home, while marble is an elegant nod to tradition. Wicker adds a breezy feel to coastal settings, and wood can be finished myriad ways, from ornate, hand-painted motifs to straightforward mission styling. If you're unsure what style to choose, recognize that a console table can be a statement piece, and as such, it provides an opportunity to be a little adventurous in your home's look. In this case, it's more important to choose a piece that you love over one that exactly matches the other furniture in your home.
Start by taking a good look at your room's overall style, and considering what items you want to display or store on your table. Once you have a list of features you want your table to have, you can narrow down your choices to a more manageable number.
Usage Ideas:
1. Home Bar
The storage features and convenient height of most of these pieces makes them a great way to add a small bar to your home in the dining room or living room. You can place a wine rack with a few of your favorite bottles on the top, keep silverware and napkins in drawers, or set an ice bucket, bottles, and glassware on shelves.
2. Entry Table
Perfect for dropping keys and other items when you come home, an entry table also serves as a display space for family photos and decor. Coordinated with a beautiful rug and wall art, this kind of table makes a beautiful welcome for your guests.
3. Sofa Table
The ideal spot to place a lamp or two, along with decor items and photos, a console table makes a great partner for your sofa. A piece with a lower shelf can give you extra decor display or a place to keep your favorite books or magazines.
4. Desk or Desk Companion
For light office use such as working on your laptop, or to add extra storage space for office supplies, these tables work like a charm. If you'll be working at the table, look for one with no bottom shelf so you'll have leg room. If it will be a companion to your existing desk, look for plenty of storage in the form of drawers or shelves.
5. Bathroom Table/Vanity
If you've got a spacious bathroom or would like to create a vanity space in a bedroom, a console can be a great addition. It gives you extra storage space, and adds a beautiful touch of glamour. You can add a mirror to create a vanity, as well as a tray for jewelry and personal items.
These are just a few ways you can use a console table to accent your home. With such versatility, choosing your table is only the first step!

Bathroom layout - please critique!
Building a new house, and here's the first design on the bathroom from my architect. I'm not crazy about it -- I feel like there's a lot of wasted space in the middle of a big square.
What would you do differently? Any and all opinions are welcome!
It is hard to comment with certainty - b/c you left out the wider view of MB and "her" closet. Where does the other door in "her" closet take you?
If there is any wasted space I would say it it is in "her" closet. Just the partial image of it shows huge amount of "walkway space" instead of using it for shelves, or dresser drawer, etc.
I personally DO NOT understand the logic for putting closet in the bathroom. I do not want my clothes and shoes next to source of moisture. I do not want to be getting dressed after a shower in a moist room. But. That is the owner's choice to make.
Make sure you have a good place to hang all towels - dry before shower, wet after shower, extra towels storage. They need to be easy to grab after shower, but not in the way that you will constantly bump them with our elbows.
Make room (hidden preferably) for toilet cleaning supplies, extra TP, etc.

Waterlox/Stain Recipe for White Oak
We made a great deal on unfinished white oak flooring.
Does anybody have experience, or a suggestion for a stain (mixed with the first Waterlox application) which would give the white oak the slightly burnished darker feeling of a lightly stained red oak floor with Waterlox finish?
Thanks, K
We had red oak floors that I refinished. I used Waterlox and Minwax English Chestnut with a 4:1 mix ratio.
1 coat waterlox sealer/finish, 2 coats satin finish
Just wonderful!
Its actually your posts and that floor which drive me to do the job. Thanks for the inspriation.
I've thought your stain choice with a smidgeon of a reddish (like mahogany) might just do the job.
As soon as the flooring arrives, I'll give it a try.
This is exactly what I intend to do, using 3/4 by 2 1/4 #1 grade, and I am thinking of a mixture of red and white oak. Anyone got suggestions on where to get the best quality wood (I am in Pacific Northwest). The price for unfinished is good at Lumber Liquidators, but is anyone familiar with the quality of their product.
Also, any tips on preparing and sanding the floor would be appreciated. I am doing about 1000 Sq Ft in 4 rooms (all the floors are connected) - how long should it take me for sanding/finishing, and allowing time for the finish to dry - I will use Waterlox and Minwax English Chestnut just like duden72.
Just a suggestion for buying your hardwood; asking a floor installer or contractor on where to buy is the best way to go,IMO, because quality is hard to measure from L.L. Dh and I have never installed ourselves but have had good service through contractors and flooring installers; both of which we found by word of mouth on how good and honest they were. Plus, red and white oak is usually found at a great price just because it is an all around common wood. We have a #2 common white oak which has lots of knots and variations in color. We have about 1400 sq.ft. of it through out the house.
Good luck on your project!
I agree with twotogo, asking a contractor or a floor installer would be the best way to go. They might even be able to point you towards a wholesaler.
Our floors were roughly 700 sf, and it took me two solid days of sanding. Staring with 36 grit, then 60, 80 and a final sanding at 100 with cleaning and vacuuming in between. Theres nothing easy or quick about it.
Using the Waterlox, i waited 48 hours in between coats.
The biggest thing I would pass along would be cleaning. Its so easy to get dust particles, hair, fuzzies, anything and everything in the finish. The dust from the sanding gets everywhere. Ceiling, walls, sills. Vacuum and wipe. Before and in between each coat.
Good luck on your project

Wrigley: Maybe We Won't Sell Caffeinated Gum After All
Originally published on Thu May 9, 2013 11:20 am
Less than two weeks after launching its Alert Energy Caffeine Gum, the Wrigley Company decided that maybe the world wasn't ready for amped-up chewing gum after all.
On April 30, the day after Alert Energy launched, the Food and Drug Administration said it was going to take a "fresh look" at caffeinated foods, particularly their effect on children and teenagers.
Being out front on caffeinated confections evidently wasn't a comfortable place to be.
Yesterday, the Wrigley Co. said it has "paused" sales of Alert Energy, which came in brightly-colored packages. Each pellet of gum contained 40 milligrams of caffeine, about the amount in a half-cup of coffee.
"After discussions with the FDA, we have a greater appreciation for its concern about the proliferation of caffeine in the nation's food supply," Casey Keller, Wrigley's president for North America, said in a statement.
Keller called for "changes in the regulatory framework to better guide the consumers and the industry about the appropriate level and use of caffeinated products."
The surge of caffeinated energy drink and, to a lesser extent, food products, has alarmed pediatricians. In 2011 the American Academy of Pediatrics said that children and teenagers should avoid caffeinated drinks, since caffeine boosts heart rate, interferes with sleep, and increases anxiety.
Alert Energy was marketed "in a safe and responsible manner to consumers 25 years and older," Keller's statement said.
No word on how that might have been enforced, since nobody's carding kids who buy gum at the local mini-mart.

Gutter problems
We live in a small older home with a front porch. We used to be able to sit on the porch when it rained because it stayed perfectly dry. Well, this past summer we had a new ceiling put up covering an old bead board one and at the same time had new aluminum trim and gutters replaced. The gutter runs the length of the porch. The new gutters are the large ones. Now for some reason about half of the front porch gets very wet. The floor and the rest of the porch is brick.
(I now realize a picture would really help but it's too dark right now). The porch is somewhat protected by trees and bushes so I feel the problem is with the new gutters. They are clean and drain well. I had the guys who installed everything back out and they do not see any problem with them. No surprise there.
Does anyone have any ideas why the rain water is now coming onto the porch? Any ideas what to do to fix this? Any help appreciated!
umm - these are just guesses, but here goes -
the water splashes onto the porch from the downspout?
the water falls through a crack before it enters the gutter?
a nail from the gutter made a hole in the roof?
A downspout from further up got disconnected?
You can test it with a hose. Have a spotter, and try the hose directly into thew downspout, starting at the lowest entry and if that shows nothing, move up the roof spot by spot.
Thank you lyvia for your input. Everything is connected but I never thought of a hole. I'm thinking there could now be a space behind the new gutters where water gets through. I'm going to get up there with a ladder this weekend. I have read about a gutter or roof apron which I'm going to check for.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Offensive linemen move faster than buses
On opening night for Winnipeg's new football stadium, at the height of the evening rush, it took one hour and four minutes for a 161 Super Express bus to make the 12-kilometre trip from the University of Winnipeg to the University of Manitoba.
The first 11 kilometres took 35 minutes. So-called rapid transit appeared somewhat rapid.
But the final kilometre took 27 minutes as buses piled up in a jam at the intersection of Pembina Highway and University Crescent and then crawled toward Investors Group Field.
"We have some work to do," said the driver as the bus pulled up at the new $200-million stadium. Most of his passengers got off at Pembina Highway and walked the rest of the way.
This inauspicious debut does not bode well for what was, until Wednesday, a grand attempt to convince many Winnipeggers to use transit.
Residents of this city are brought up to believe they have a God-given right to drive wherever they want, whenever they want and park directly in front of the door of their destination. When that expectation is not met, Winnipeggers become angry, frustrated and confused -- at least at first.
Then we do what all humans do when confronted with a problem: We solve it by changing our behaviour.
Some fans, predicting congestion Wednesday night, tried to take transit instead.
"I thought this would be more rapid transit than it is," said Ken Marbach, a Southdale resident who had not been on a bus for 20 years before Wednesday night.
After his bus crawled along University Crescent for almost half an hour, he said he wouldn't try transit again on game day unless the kinks are worked out.
Eventually, transit and Winnipeg Blue Bombers fans alike will figure out how to get to and from Investors Group Field. But it's going to take time.
When the MTS Centre was about to open on Portage Avenue in 2004, some pessimists complained the downtown hockey arena would create traffic and parking chaos. Some feared there wouldn't be enough parking spots despite the fact there are tens of thousands of stalls downtown.
In 2013, even though the Winnipeg Jets attract larger crowds than the Manitoba Moose ever did, it's easy to find a free parking spot on a street within seven blocks of the MTS Centre.
The opening of the MTS Centre also elicited fears of downtown traffic gridlock before and after events at the new arena. To be fair, there were traffic tie-ups the first few occasions the MTS Centre was sold out for a major concert.
But since motorists have an amazing capacity to adapt, avoiding those bottlenecks soon became as instinctive as slowing down before red-light-camera intersections.
As soon as the U of M was revealed as the new home for the Blue Bombers, new fears about gridlock and parking emerged. This happened in spite of the fact many Bombers fans who travelled by car to reach Canad Inns Stadium routinely walked long distances from parking spots scattered about the Polo Park neighbourhood, the fringes of the West End and even the south side of the Assiniboine River.
Almost every regular stadium-goer had a favourite place to park at the old stadium. It will take time for tens of thousands of fans to find a similar preferred spot at the new stadium. It's obvious this adjustment period will take longer than it did for the MTS Centre, which holds events more frequently than this stadium will.
Transit must adapt. Drivers will probably adapt even sooner.
What will be interesting is whether more Winnipeggers will take transit to the new stadium. Though free bus rides have been available to Bombers ticket-holders for years, only about one in 20 took transit to Canad Inns Stadium.
The hope is about three in 20 will take transit to Investors Group Field, using park-and-ride routes or buses themselves. That could be a tough sell, given the long delays Wednesday night.
This ride would be easier if the city and province ever find a way to complete the Southwest Transitway and create a new transit hub outside Investors Group Field. The vacant Southwood Golf Course land, awaiting redevelopment just north of the stadium, is a blank slate for a new transit corridor or spur line.
But that's five years away, at best. In the meantime, it took far too long for many transit riders to reach the stadium Wednesday.
Only when it becomes more convenient to ride will motorists give up the drive.

About Bartley Kives
Bartley Kives wants you to know his last name rhymes with Beavis, as in Beavis and Butthead. He aspires to match the wit, grace and intelligence of the 1990s cartoon series.
Bartley joined the Free Press in 1998 as a music critic. He spent the ensuing 7.5 years interviewing the likes of Neil Young and David Bowie and trying to stay out of trouble at the Winnipeg Folk Festival before deciding it was far more exciting to sit through zoning-variance appeals at city hall.
In 2006, Bartley followed Winnipeg Mayor Sam Katz from the music business into civic politics. He spent seven years covering city hall from a windowless basement office.
He is now reporter-at-large for the Free Press and also writes an outdoor-recreation column called Offroad for the Outdoors page.
A canoeist, backpacker and food geek, Bartley is fond of conventional and wilderness travel. He is the author of A Daytripper's Guide to Manitoba: Exploring Canada's Undiscovered Province, the only comprehensive travel guidebook for Manitoba – and a Canadian bestseller, to boot. He is also co-author of Stuck In The Middle: Dissenting Views of Winnipeg, a collaboration with photographer Bryan Scott and the winner of the 2014 Carol Shields Winnipeg Book Award.
Bartley's work has also appeared on CBC Radio and Citytv as well as in publications such as The Guardian, explore magazine and National Geographic Traveler. He sits on the board of PEN Canada, which promotes freedom of expression.
Born in Winnipeg, he has an arts degree from the University of Winnipeg and a master's degree in journalism from Ottawa's Carleton University. He is the proud owner of a blender.

DEFINITION of 'Business Judgment Rule'
A regulation that helps to make sure a corporation's board of directors is protected from misleading allegations about the way it conducts business. Unless it is apparent that the board of directors has blatantly violated some major rule of conduct, the courts will not review or question its decisions or dealings.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Business Judgment Rule'
The reason for this rule is to acknowledge that the daily operation of a business can be innately risky and controversial. Therefore, the board of directors should be allowed to make decisions without fear of being prosecuted. The business judgment rule further assumes that it is unfair to expect those managing a company to make perfect decisions all the time. As long as the courts believe that the board of directors acted rationally in a particular situation, no further action will taken against them.

This is the newest member of our family, taken when she was two weeks old. She's the runt of the litter. We have to move her sister and brother away to give her the opportunity to feed.
She will be looking for a home about the end of February (hint, hint!), for those who live anywhere near Columbia Falls, Montana. The mother is a tortoiseshell stray that somebody dumped in our neighborhood. We're not supposed to have more than three cats, but we brought the mother inside so she wouldn't have the kittens in the snow. Temperatures here drop down below zero in January and February.
[EDIT May 2, 2010 – Great news! We found a couple of very nice women to adopt this kitten. She's very happy in her new home.]

She is precious for sure! How small she looks. I love this, and best of luck in the contest. :)
Thank-you! I wish there was a way to breed them to stay small like this. It would certainly save money on food and kitty litter costs.

Gorgeous, I wish I lived close by as I would take her :), we had 3 cats and lost 2 of them last year. One died of old age and the other had a tumour and had to be put to sleep…….. I miss them still. Good luck in the competition too .
Thank-you! I'd love to keep them all, but we have too many already. These are the litter of a cat that was dumped in our street. We couldn't just leave her to have kittens in the winter cold.

Oh she is sooo cute! I love this.
Thank-you Holly!
