Designed specially for Intel LGA 1156, the LOGISYS Computer IC221PWM CPU cooler features a 92mm PWM fan which delivers an airflow of up to 42.76 CFM for decent cooling performance with low noise. And radial aluminum shaped heat sink helps to dissipate heat efficiently. The push pins allow quick and easy installation.
Filter Results |
Great ProductPros: Exactly what I wanted. Easy installation, CPU temps lower, and very, very quiet. Some reviews I read had me worried about installation but it snapped securely in place first time in about 10 seconds. For $15, this is as good as you are going to get. Cons: None. Did you find this review helpful? |
Sick little aftermarketPros: This thing is so quiet. I literally couldn't even hear it once i closed my case. The thing spins at about 1400RPM for me right now. The circle enclosure for the fan itself makes it very efficient as well. The air pushes down on the heat sink much more directly with out loss of pressure. It looks really cool too, the center of the fan has a hologram and looks especially cool under blue LED's. My core i7 ivy processor has spiked to 78c under its heaviest loads playing star craft 2 and streaming HD videos. Its rated for 105c before it overloads. The best fan heat sink u can probably get if you aren't gonna do liquid cooling. Cons: Nada 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
poor quality / designPros: very quiet, keeps (or "kept" to be more correct) system cool Cons: plastic screws that hold the heatsink in place are useless.... please abandon this design. Other Thoughts: I think logisys makes decent fans, but this particular model design is full of flaws.... stay away from this model. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Super Fan!Pros: Incredibly silent. I have 3 case fans, and an old PSU in the system as well... I cannot hear a thing from my fans at all. Very good fan. Cons: None yet Did you find this review helpful? |
A bit tricky to install, but...Pros: Processor used to run at ~95 while playing games, this ones keeps it at around 70. Cons: Not easy to install for some reason. Couldn't quite figure out why, but it was a bit difficult getting the pegs in. I'm still not going to take any chances jostling my case around. Other Thoughts: Good deal for the price, just wish there were more choices for L1155 heatsinks on the market. Did you find this review helpful? |
Mounting Hardware Broken on ArrivalPros: None Cons: Broken when received. Mounting screw for mounting bracket had screw head poped off. Could have been fixable, but the plastic securing mount broke as well rendering heatsink useless. Other Thoughts: Cheaply made. Would not recommend. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
One word....DON'TPros: Fit the mobo holes...cpu is cool at idle at around 28 degrees celcius Cons: Haven't even tried overclocking my nice new i5 2500k since even at stock speeds when I run prime 95 for only about 2 minutes this thing allows my cpu to heat up to it's thermal limits. I sat and watched to make sure it didn't go too high and once it hit 72 degrees celcius I stopped the test. Re-seated heatsink, re-applied thermal paste, re-tried test...same sheet different moment. And yes, my case airflow is great. It can't even keep up to a decent test at stock speeds...don't waste your money. Wish I still had my stock Intel fan/heatsink, now what does that tell you? Other Thoughts: Nice blue color, for those that care about something that doesn't matter. 0 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
You get what you pay forPros: Efficient cooling, silent, and looks awesome Cons: None as of now 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

Michael Jackson's Crazy Ex-Wife Needs Cash
by Mischalova at .Debbie Rowe needs a payday loan.
The insane woman that not only married Michael Jackson, but fathered his children (ewww!) claims the singer owes her a fortune. She says she "sits on the brink of bankruptcy.
Our friends at TMZ.com obtained a motion filed by Rowe, in which she asks a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge to order Jackson to pay her $50,000 in living expenses for the next four months. Ha! Like Jacko can afford that!
In the documents, Rowe states she needs the money to continue her fight for the custody of the couple's two children. An extrar $195,000 is also being requested for legal fees; if Rowe doesn't receive the check to pay her lawyers, she'll have to represent herself in the custody battle - which would provide The Gossip with endless entertaining material.
Jackson and Rowe divorced in 1999. Under the terms of that agreement, the woman who's apparently seen this freak naked was to receive $1 million up front, along with an additional $1 million a year for the next three years. After that, Rowe was to receive $750,000 a year for the next six years. The total take: $8.5 million.
Shockingly - as Jackson faces trial after trial - Rowe claims her former husband hasn't lived up to the agreement.
The settlement agreement provides a peek into Jackson's lavish lifestyle. He owns:
- A Rolls Royce limousine
- Four tractors
- Numerous firetrucks
- Countless car-shaped bunk beds, replete with built-in children
We may have made the last one up. But Rowe is also hoping to alter her visitation agreement in order to spend more time with the doomed offspring of her and Jackson.

The writer of this article is a sick individual. On what basis was Michael Jackson a "freak"? It's pathetic to peddle this garbage but there are always a few idiots who consume this garbage at the bottom of the pond.
It is no longer 2006 and Michael has died. What have this writer to say today? Debbie Rowe and her former boss, Arnie Klein appear to have plotted against Jackson with the two older children. If DNA of Klein matches that of the two older children, both he and Rowe are likely to be on trial and probably convicted of conspiracy to defraud and possibly murder.

Not in Our Name: The "One Nation" March – Today's Trade Unions, and the Left
Posted By Ron Radosh On October 4, 2010 @ 4:00 pm In NewsReal Blog | No Comments
There was a time when the mainstream trade union movement confined itself to union concerns—a union contract that guaranteed a decent standard of living, and in turn for a negotiated agreement with the corporation, guaranteed labor stability and productivity. Large corporations learned quickly, as did the leadership of General Electric in the 1930's, that signing with the union, even as in their case a Communist led union, meant the opportunity for both profits and economic growth. The stockholders were more than pleased, and the workers represented by the union achieved their rather minimal aims.
The unions accepted the corporation as the essential institution necessary for economic growth and prosperity, and its leadership understood well that Marxian oriented radicalism threatened their membership's own freedom and growing higher standard of living. Gerard Swope, the President of General Electric in the 30's- and himself author of a highly publicized plan for a corporatist reorganization of America- the so-called Swope Plan- rejoiced when the Communist controlled United Electrical Workers/CIO organized his plants and won the work force's allegiance. "If you can't get along with these fellows and settle matters," he told one of GE's Vice-Presidents, "there's something wrong with you." As for the Communist union he and his staff had to deal with, he remarked that they were "well led; the discipline good." The CP union chief, Julius Emspak, returned the compliment by calling Swope an "enlightened" employer, who understood that "industry would have to recognize" that union leaders might eventually even have to sit on the corporation's board of directors.
In turn for labor peace, Swope even supported a thirty-hour work week and a Federal minimum wage. His goal was to integrate the work force into the system, and make it a patriotic defender of capitalism; not an antagonist. The current AFL-CIO leadership is far removed from the type of leaders who built the industrial union movement in the 1930's, and whom Swope could easily work with.

In April 2011, the Pew Health Group's Safe Checking in the Electronic Age Project released Hidden Risks: The Case for Safe and Transparent Checking Accounts. This report examined the terms and conditions of over 250 distinct types of checking accounts offered online by the 10 largest banks in the United States as of October 2010. At that time, these banks held nearly 60 percent of all deposit volume nationwide.Pew's research shows that it is exceedingly difficult for an average American to find the basic information needed either to select a checking account or to responsibly manage his or her existing account.These fact sheets summarize Pew's policy recommendations to make checking accounts safer and more transparent.DisclosuresDepository institutions should be required to provide information about checking account terms, conditions and fees in a concise, easy-to-read format. Pew has developed a model disclosure box that provides this information. Click here to read Pew's policy recommendations on disclosures.Overdraft OptionsDepository institutions should be required to provide accountholders with clear, comprehensive pricing information for all available overdraft options so that a customer can make the best choice among overdraft options, including choosing not to provide affirmative consent—or "opt in"—for any overdraft coverage. Click here to read Pew's policy recommendations on overdraft options.Overdraft FeesOverdraft penalty fees should be reasonable and proportional to the bank's costs in providing the overdraft loan. Regulators should monitor overdraft transfer fees and impose similar reasonable and proportional requirements if it appears that they are becoming so disproportionate as to suggest that they have become penalty fees as well. Click here to read Pew's policy recommendations on overdraft fees.Processing PoliciesDepository institutions should be required to post deposits and withdrawals in a fully disclosed, objective and neutral manner that does not maximize overdraft fees, such as in chronological order. Click here to read Pew's policy recommendations on processing policies.Dispute ResolutionThe Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), in its study of arbitration agreements, should examine the prevalence of binding arbitration clauses and of fee-shifting provisions, including loss, costs and expenses clauses in checking accounts, and assess whether such provisions prevent consumers from obtaining relief.

The last few months, this board has hated almost everything the team has done. The PA guy is a decible too loud, Larry Brown's 3rd quarter line up sucks, Okafor is soft, Crash's head hurts, Matt Carroll is grossly over paid and gets way too minutes (that one is just me haha). and quite frankly its just getting way too depressing for me.
Look fellas, we cheer for an expansion franchise in a small market. If anyone thinks we are gonna win a championship in under 5 years.... you were sadly, sadly mistaken. If you think that everything the front office does will make you happy, then again, you are mistaken and haven't paid attention to most NBA front offices for the past 12 years. My point is this: if this team needs anything, its a strong consistent fan base that understands the team it cheers for.
So in the spirit of Thanksgiving... this thread is for nothing but positive, thankful comments. Anything even remotely negative will be edited with smiley faces like so: Sean May is a :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:.
Do i mean you have to be happy about everything this team and organization does, of course not. I expect you to rant and rave about everything sucking as usual, as will I. But I also think we need a little positive balance so that we all can remain sane. And we all need to remember that having an NBA franchise in your home area is something to be thankful for, regardless of its record.

September 19, 2001 SMU TO HONOR AMERICA DURING SATURDAY FOOTBALL PREGAME CEREMONY, FANS ENCOURAGED TO ARRIVE EARLY DUE TO INCREASED SECURITYDALLAS (SMU) --In light of last week's national tragedy, SMU athletic department officials are increasing security measures for this Saturday's home football game with North Carolina State at Gerald. J. Ford Stadium. Kickoff for the contest is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. The athletic department is also encouraging fans to arrive early to allow for the increased security measures and to take part in pregame activities honoring America. In addition to a musical tribute, American flag stickers will be distributed to fans and the SMU Student Association will be collecting money to give to the Red Cross. Extra security measures will include some restrictions on what fans can bring into the stadium:
In addition, police and crowd management staff will be increased by 25 percent for Saturday's game. "While we feel that our security at athletic events has always been good, we are aware of the current national climate and we must operate under a higher level of security awareness," said SMU Director of Athletics Jim Copeland. "Safety and security have always been a high priority and our goal is to continue to make our game-day experience as enjoyable and fan-friendly as possible. "We appreciate our fans cooperation, assistance and patience during this time. Our policies mirror those on other college campuses around the country." |

The European Parliament agrees by a majority to impose criminal sanctions to halt hydrocarbon dumping at sea
All Press Releases…Oceana is now calling on the Council to fulfil its commitment and give the green light to this Directive.
February 23, 2005
Contact: Marta Madina ( firstname.lastname@example.com )
Oceana is delighted to report that today, Wednesday, the European Parliament plenary session approved by a large majority the text of the Directive presented by Dutch Euro MP Corien M. Wortmann-Kool in favour of imposing criminal sanctions on those responsible for dumping crude and used oils, washing out tanks and other hydrocarbon spillages at sea.
The draft Directive establishes that hydrocarbon dumping carried out either illegally or through negligence is an infraction that merits criminal sanctions, which could involve:
- heavy fines
- the withdrawal of aid and subsidies
- a ban on trading in Europe
- and even prison sentences.
It is now in the hands of the Council of Ministers to give the final approval so that all EU countries can be equipped with the same legal instruments to combat the almost 90,000 illegal dumping incidents that take place each year in European waters, and prevent more than half a million tonnes of polluting hydrocarbons from being discharged in our waters.
Oceana, the international organisation for the defence of the seas, has been working for almost two years to achieve this result and welcomes the decision of the European Parliament with great satisfaction.
We are now calling on the Council to fulfil its commitment and give their final approval as soon as possible.

First brewery to open in Rutland CountyBy Lucia Suarez
STAFF WRITER | November 06,2012Anthony Edwards photo
Patrick, left, and Daniel Foley stand behind the bar at the Neshobe River Winery in Brandon on Monday. The brothers will now be offering bottled beer in addition to their local wines.BRANDON Brothers Patrick and Daniel Foley have specialized in making local red wine at their family-owned winery since 2008, but later on this month, they will start selling home-brewed beer as well.
I have been brewing for four or five years, Daniel Foley said. I started off with small batches and recently stepped it up.
The brothers started Foley Brothers Brewing, an expansion of sorts to the Neshobe River Winery which their family has owned for the last four years. Once it opens later this month, it will be the first brewery in Rutland County.
The Vermont Brewer Association told us that, Patrick Foley said. We are kind of stoked about that.
He said one of the biggest motivators to wanting to start a brewery was the fact that they can, and kind of have to, brew every day. It is something that does not happen while making wine.
When you make wine, its a couple of months, he said. Traveling to other breweries, we saw that they are brewing every day.
To start the Foley brothers are offering two types of beers the Ginger Wheat and Brown Ale which will be available first wholesale in 22-ounce bottles. They brothers hope to start the kegging process sometime early next year.
We are brewing six barrels a week and hope to bump it up to 12 barrels at some point, Daniel Foley said. One barrel is about 31 gallons.
He described the Ginger Wheat beer to be golden in color with a warm ginger zest that can be enjoyed all year-round. The Brown Ale, on the other hand, was made with maple syrup lending to its rich, earthy flavor and true Vermont character.
They will be using local ingredients for the beers, including homegrown hops and locally grown wheat.
We really enjoy the Vermont beers and using local products, Dan Foley said. We are growing the stuff ourselves.
The brewery is next to the winery, located at 79 Stone Mill Dam Road, which also includes the Old Mill Inn Bed and Breakfast. Although they are working on selling wholesale at the moment, the taps of the two beers will be available at the brewery.
Kurt Staudter, executive director of the Vermont Brewers Association, called the new brewery very exciting, especially for Rutland County, which he said, has not had a brewery.
We thought if a brewery and pub was going to open it would have been in Rutland, Staudter said. This one caught us by surprise.
He said the closest breweries to Rutland County are the Long Trail Brewery in Bridgewater and a handful in Addison County. He said Vermont is on track to having 30 breweries by the end of the years the most per capita of any state.
Vermont is becoming like the Disney of breweries, Staudter said.
To inaugurate Foley Brothers Brewing, they are hosting a grand opening on Nov. 24. The all-day event, running from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., will feature free beer tasting, wood-fired pizza all day and selling drafts and bottles. It will be hosted at the Big Red Barn on the property and will also feature Middlebury Chocolates.
Its going to be a good time, Patrick Foley said.

East Harlem, also known as Spanish Harlem and El Barrio, is a neighborhood of Upper Manhattan, New York City roughly encompassing the area north of 96th Street and east of Fifth Avenue to the East and Harlem Rivers.[1] It lies within Manhattan Community District 11.[2]
The neighborhood is one of the largest predominantly Latino communities in New York City, mostly made up of Puerto Ricans, as well as a rising number of Dominican, Salvadoran and Mexican immigrants.[3] It includes the area formerly known as Italian Harlem, in which the remnants of a once predominantly Italian community remain. The Chinese population has increased dramatically in East Harlem (東哈萊姆) since 2000.[4][5][6][7]
East Harlem suffers from many social issues, such as the highest jobless rate in New York City, teenage pregnancy, AIDS, drug abuse, homelessness, and an asthma rate five times the national average.[2] It has the second highest concentration of public housing in the United States, closely following Brownsville, Brooklyn.[8] The area has the highest violent crime rate in Manhattan.[9] Police services to the neighborhood are divided between the 23rd and the 25th Precincts.[10]
East Harlem is notable for its contributions to Salsa music and Hip-Hop.
The area which became East Harlem was rural for most of the 19th century, but residential settlements northeast of Third Avenue and East 110th Street had developed by the 1860s.[11] The construction of the elevated transit line to Harlem in 1879 and 1880, and the building of the Lexington Avenue subway in 1919,[11] urbanized the area, precipitating the construction of apartment buildings and brownstones. The extension of cable cars up Lexington Avenue into East Harlem was stymied by the incline created by Duffy's Hill at 103rd Street, one of the steepest grades in Manhattan. East Harlem was first populated by poor German, Irish, Scandinavian[12] and Eastern European Jewish immigrants, with the Jewish population standing at 90,000 around 1917.[11] In the 1870s, Italian immigrants joined the mix after a contractor building trolley tracks on First Avenue imported Italian laborers as strikebreakers. The workers' shantytown along the East River at 106th Street was the beginning of an Italian neighborhood, with 4,000 having arrived by the mid 1880s. As more immigrants arrived, it expanded north to East 115th Street and west to Third Avenue.[13]
East Harlem now consisted of pockets of ethnically-sorted settlements – Italian, German, Irish and Jewish – which were beginning to press up against each other, with the spaces still between them occupied by "gasworks, stockyards and tar and garbage dumps".[13] In 1895, Union Settlement Association, one of the oldest settlement houses in New York City, began providing services in the area, offering the immigrant and low-income residents a range of community-based programs, including boys and girls clubs, a sewing school and adult education classes.
Southern Italians and Sicilians, with a moderate number of Northern Italians, soon predominated, especially in the area east of Lexington Avenue between 96th and 116th Streets and east of Madison Avenue between 116th and 125th Streets, with each street featuring people from different regions of Italy. The neighborhood became known as "Italian Harlem", the Italian American hub of Manhattan; it was the first part of Manhattan to be referred to as "Little Italy".[14]
There were many crime syndicates in Italian Harlem from the early Black Hand to the bigger and more organized Italian gangs that formed the Italian-American Mafia. It was the founding location of the Genovese crime family, one of the Five Families that dominated organized crime in New York City.[15]
In the 1920s and early 1930s, Italian Harlem was represented in Congress by future Mayor Fiorello La Guardia, and later by Italian-American socialist Vito Marcantonio. The Italian neighborhood approached its peak in the 1930s, with over 100,000 Italian-Americans living in its crowded, run-down apartment buildings.[16]
Puerto Rican and Latin American immigration after the First World War[17] established an enclave at the western portion of East Harlem – around 110th Street and Lexington Avenue – which became known as "Spanish Harlem". The area slowly grew to encompass all of East Harlem, including Italian Harlem, as Italians moved out – to the Bronx, Brooklyn, upstate New York and New Jersey – and Hispanics moved in during another wave of immigration in the 1940s and 1950s.[11] Although in certain areas, particularly around Pleasant Avenue, Italian Harlem lasted through the 1970s,[18] today most of the former Italian population is gone. Most of these predominantly older residents are clustered around Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, mainly from 114th to 118th Streets. According to the 2000 Census, there were only 1,130 Italian-Americans still living in this area.[19]
Still, vestiges of the old Italian neighborhood remain. Our Lady of Mount Carmel, the first Italian feast in New York City, is still celebrated there every year, and Italian retail establishments still exist, such as Rao's restaurant, started in 1896, and the original Patsy's Pizzeria which opened in the 1933. In May 2011, one of the last remaining Italian retail businesses in the neighborhood, a barbershop owned by Claudio Caponigro on 116th Street, was threatened with closure by a rent increase.[18]
The newly dominant Puerto Rican population, which reached 63,000 in 1950, continued to define the neighborhood according to its needs, establishing bodegas and botánicas as it expanded; by the 1930s[17] there was already an enclosed street market underneath the Park Avenue railroad viaduct between 111th and 116th Streets, called "La Marqueta" ("The Market").[11] Catholic and evangelistic Protestant churches appeared in storefronts.[11] Although "Spanish Harlem" had been in use since at least the 1930s to describe the Hispanic enclave – along with "Italian Harlem" and "Negro Harlem"[20] – around the 1950s the name began to be used to describe the entire East Harlem neighborhood. Later, the name "El Barrio" ("The Neighborhood") began to be used, especially by inhabitants of the area.
In the 1950s and 1960s, large sections of East Harlem were leveled for urban renewal projects, and the neighborhood was one of the hardest hit areas in the 1960s and 1970s as New York City struggled with deficits, race riots, urban flight, gang warfare, drug abuse, crime and poverty. Tenements were crowded, poorly maintained, and frequent targets for arson. In 1969 and 1970, a regional chapter of the Young Lords which were reorganized from a neighborhood street gang in Chicago by Jose (Cha-Cha) Jimenez, ran several programs including a Free Breakfast for Children and a Free Health Clinic to help Latino and poor families. The Young Lords came together with the Black Panthers and called for Puerto Rican self-determination and neighborhood empowerment. In the 21st century the Latin Kings gang is prevalent in East Harlem.
By the beginning of the 21st century, East Harlem was a racially diverse neighborhood, with about a third of the population being Puerto Rican.[11] As it has been throughout its history, it is predominantly a working-class neighborhood.[12]
On March 12, 2014 at 9:00 EDT, residents reported a large explosion with fire at 1644/1646 Park Avenue, killing at least eight and injuring more than 70.[21][22]
Manhattan Community District 11, which covers East Harlem in its entirety, is a mostly low and moderate income area. It is made up of first and second generation Puerto Ricans, African-Americans and a growing population of Mexicans, West Indians, Dominicans, Asians, Salvadorans and other Central American immigrants.
It has one of the highest concentrations of Puerto Ricans in all of New York City. In the 2000 Census, 52.1% District describe themselves as of Hispanic origin, 35.7 as non-Hispanic black, 7.3 as non-Hispanic white, 2.7 Asian and Pacific Islander Nonhispanic, 1.7% as Two or more Races non-Hispanic, and 0.5% as other. By New York City averages, the youth makes up a larger than normal percentage of the East Harlem population with 30.6% of residents age 18 or younger.[2]
93.6% of all housing units are renter occupied, and over 25% of the population resides in public housing units managed by the NYCHA. 46.5 percent of the population receive a form of income support by the government.[2]
According to a 2010 study, the number of Asians in East Harlem nearly tripled between 2000 and 2010, largely due to Chinese people moving to East Harlem. Increasing rents in Lower Manhattan's Chinatown (紐約華埠) have driven many into public and subsidized housing developments in the neighborhood. Advocates have been calling for Chinese language services to be available in the community centers to accommodate the growing number of Chinese residents in the area. In 2000, the Chinese population in the northern portion was less than one percent, but by 2010, it has gone up to being three percent in the area. In the southern part, it rose from 4.6% to 8.4%.[23][24][25]
As of 2010, the Puerto Rican population was 27.7% in zip code 10029,[26] and 23.4% in 10035. 10035 also has a large Mexican population, at 10.7%.[27]
Social issues[edit]
Social problems, including poverty, crime and drug addiction, have plagued the area for some time. Although crime rates have dropped from the historically high numbers of the past, East Harlem suffers from Manhattan's highest violent crime rate with 15 murders in 2011.[28][29]
East Harlem has the highest concentration of shelters and facilities in Manhattan, with eight homeless shelters, 36 drug and alcohol treatment facilities and 37 mental health treatment facilities. It also has the highest jobless rate in the entire city, as well as the city's second highest cumulative AIDS rate. The asthma rate is also 5 times larger than national levels.[2] The neighborhood also suffers from a high poverty rate.[30] Union Settlement Association is one of the neighborhood's largest social service agencies, reaching more than 13,000 people annually at 17 locations throughout East Harlem, through a range of programs, including early childhood education, youth development, senior services, job training, the arts, adult education, nutrition, counseling, a farmers' market, community development, and neighborhood cultural events.
Fresh food[edit]
A lack of access to healthy food causes serious hardships to citizens of East Harlem, a neighborhood considered to be a food desert. According to an April 2008 report prepared by the New York City Department of City Planning, East Harlem is an area of the city with the highest levels of diet-related diseases due to limited opportunities for citizens to purchase fresh foods.[31]
With a high population density and a lack of nearby supermarkets, the neighborhood has little access to fresh fruit and vegetables and a low consumption of fresh foods. Citizens of East Harlem are likely to buy food from grocery stores that have a limited supply of fruits and vegetables, which are often of poor quality and generally more expensive than the same products sold at supermarkets. Compared to the Upper East Side, supermarkets in Harlem are 30% less common.[32] Without access to affordable produce and meats, East Harlem residents have difficulty eating a healthy diet, which contributes to high rates of obesity and diabetes.[33]
In 2011, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer announced a program which would send Veggie Vans to East Harlem senior centers and housing projects.[34]
East Harlem is dominated by public housing complexes of various types, with a high concentration of older tenement buildings between these developments. The neighborhood contains the highest geographical concentration of low income public housing projects in the United States. The total land area is 1.54 square miles (4.0 km2).[35][36]
After a wave of arson ravaged the low income communities of New York City throughout the 1970s, many of the residential structures in East Harlem were left seriously damaged or destroyed. By the late 1970s, the city began to rehabilitate many abandoned tenement style buildings and designate them as low income housing.
Despite recent gentrification of the neighborhood, large numbers of apartment buildings have been deliberately kept vacant by their owners. Although the businesses on the ground floor are retained, landlords do not want to have the trouble involved in residential tenants. In some cases, landlords are waiting for a revived economy, warehousing the apartments so that they can rent them later at a higher rent.[18]
In 2007, a survey of Manhattan's buildings found that 1,723 were significantly vacant, three-quarters of them north of 96th Street. A 1998 survey found that one-quarter of low-rise residential buildings on avenues or major cross streets in East Harlem had sealed-up residential floors, despite having commercial businesses on the ground floor.[18]
Public housing projects[edit]

Until 2006, property values in East Harlem climbed along with those in the rest of New York City. With increased market rate housing, including luxury condos and co-ops, most built on formerly vacant lots, there has been some decline of affordable housing in the community. A number of young professionals have settled into these recently constructed buildings. However, East Harlem has yet to see any major changes to its demography and general feel.[39]
Education and medical services[edit]
The education system in East Harlem is characterized by low test scores and high drop-out and truancy rates.[39] Students must pass through metal detectors and swipe ID cards to enter school buildings.[40] Nevertheless, since 1982 the community has been home to the Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics,[41] which replaced Benjamin Franklin High School, a school which had the smallest graduating class in the city at the time of its closing.[42]
Among the public charter schools in East Harlem are Success Academy Harlem 2 of Success Academy Charter Schools, the Harlem Village Academy, East Harlem Scholars Academies, and the DREAM Charter School.
Major medical care providers in the East Harlem area include Metropolitan Hospital Center and Mount Sinai Hospital, which serve residents of East Harlem and the Upper East Side. North General Hospital, which formerly served the area as well, is now closed. Many of the graduates of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine do local public health work, including work on asthma, diabetes, unsafe drinking water, lead paint and infectious diseases.
The neighborhod is home to one of the few major television studios north of midtown, Metropolis at 106th Street and Park Avenue, where shows such as BET's 106 & Park and Chappelle's Show have been produced. PRdream.com, a web site on the history and culture of Puerto Ricans, founded a media gallery and digital film studio called MediaNoche in 2003. It presents technology-based art on Park Avenue and 102nd Street, providing exhibition space and residencies for artists and filmmakers, and webcasting events. PRdream.com also collect orals histories and conducts screenings.

Thanks for the Graphic ...Simply beautiful..Happy Holidays to you
Yo Nick thanks for stopping by, hope you week is going well, stay warm, dry, and safe.
(A folk legend from Germany and the Ukraine)Once upon a time, long ago, a gentle mother was busily cleaning the house for the most wonderful day of the year.... The day on which the Christ child came to bless the house. Not a speck of dust was left. Even the spiders had been banished from their cozy corner in the ceiling to avoid the housewife's busy cleaning. They finally fled to the farthest corner of the attic.
T'was the Christmas eve at last! The tree was decorated and waiting for the children to see it. But the poor spiders were frantic, for they could not see the tree, nor be present for the Christ child's visit. But the oldest and wisest spider suggested that perhaps they could peep through the crack in the door to see him. Silently they crept out of their attic, down the stairs, and across the floor to wait in the crack in the threshold. Suddenly, the door opened a wee bit and quickly the spiders scurried into the room. They must see the tree closely, since their eyes weren't accustomed to the brightness of the room... so the crept all over the tree, up and down, over every branch and twig and saw every one of the pretty things. At last they satisfied themselves completely of the Christmas tree beauty.
But alas!! Everywhere they went they had left their webs, and when the little Christ child came to bless the house he was dismayed. He loved the little spiders, for they were God's creatures too, but he knew the mother, who had trimmed the tree for the little children, wouldn't feel the same, so He touched the webs and they all turned to sparkling, shimmering, silver and gold!
Ever since that time, we have hung tinsel on our christmas trees, and according to the legend, it has been a custom to include a spider among the decorations on the tree.
Thank you very much Nick and take care out there.
thank you very much and you stay safe also
Nick, Merry Christmas Brother, Thanks for stopping by. GOD Bless and Stay Safe.
Thank you for the visit. I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas. Stay safe.

Don't think that love, to be true, has to be extraordinary. What is necessary is to continue to love. How does a lamp burn, if it is not by the continuous feeding of little drops of oil? When there is no oil, there is no light and the bridegroom will say: "I do not know you". Dear friends, what are our drops of oil in our lamps? They are the small things from every day life: the joy, the generosity, the little good things, the humility and the patience. A simple thought for someone else. Our way to be silent, to listen, to forgive, to speak and to act. That are the real drops of oil that make our lamps burn vividly our whole life. Don't look for Jesus far away, He is not there. He is in you, take care of your lamp and you will see Him."
– Mother Teresa

Summary (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Epitaph of a Small Winner was the first novel in the later, more mature phase of the work of Machado de Assis. A bleak irony envelops the work. Characteristic of this sentiment, Brás Cubas dedicates these posthumous memoirs to the first worm that has gnawed into his casket. Through first-person narrative, Brás attempts to evaluate his life. Initially he recalls a money-making scheme in which he was absorbed toward the end of his life, inventing a device to protect against depression. He then recalls his final illness and visits from a woman, Virgília, with whom he had a shallow, self-absorbed, adulterous affair.
The narrator proceeds to recall the most significant events of his life from his birth in 1805 to his death in 1869. He reveals a selfish, shallow, hypocritical person. Able to expose his defects, he ignores analyzing how his character was formed. The reader acquires an increasingly interactive role with Brás Cubas, both as a witness to the candid boldness of his testimony and as a judge or evaluator of his ultimately naive and self-serving assessment. Although he speaks candidly, such frankness does not mean he has done so critically; he may know his character, but what insight of it does he have?
Spoiled by his father, Brás Cubas develops as a mean and mischievous child. One of his self-satisfied uncles introduces him to his first lover, Marcela. Though he is in love with her, she is interested only in the financial...

Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Braz Cubas, a wealthy Brazilian, dies of pneumonia in his sixty-fifth year. After his death, he decides to write his autobiography, to while away a part of eternity and to give humanity some record of his life. Braz was born in 1805. His childhood was an easy one, for his father was extremely wealthy and indulgent, only pretending to be severe with his child for the sake of appearances. One of the earliest experiences the boy remembered was the elation of the Brazilians over the defeat of Napoleon, an occasion marked in his memory by the gift of a small sword. The sword was the most important aspect of the occasion, and Braz remarked that each person has his own "sword" that makes occasions important.
As a child, Braz did not like school. In his seventeenth year, he had his first love affair with a courtesan named Marcella. Trying to please his mistress, Braz spent all the money he could borrow from his mother and then gave promissory notes to fall due on the day he inherited his father's estate. His father, learning of the affair, paid off his son's debts and shipped him off to a university in Spain. At first, Braz hoped to take Marcella with him. She refused to go.
Graduated from the university and awarded a degree, Braz admitted that he knew very little. He then took advantage of his father's liberality and wealth and spent several years traveling about Europe. Called back to Rio de Janeiro by news that his mother was dying of cancer, he arrived home in time to see her before she died. After her death, he went into retirement, remaining in seclusion until his father came to him with plans for a marriage and for a seat in the Brazilian legislative body. After some vacillation, Braz decided to obey his father's wishes. The reason for his hesitation was a love affair with a rather beautiful girl. His discovery that she was lame, however, turned him away from her. On his return to social life, he learned that the young woman his father had picked out for him, a girl named Virgilia, had position, wealth, and beauty. It was through her father's influence that the elder Cubas expected his son to get ahead politically. Unfortunately for the schemes of both father and son, Virgilia met Lobo Neves, a young man with more ambition and greater prospects. She decided to marry him, a decision that ended, at least temporarily, prospects of a political career for Braz.
Disappointed and disgruntled with life, he accidentally met Marcella, his former mistress. He found her greatly changed, for smallpox destroyed her beauty. After losing her looks, she left her earlier profession to become the keeper of a small jewelry shop.
Disappointment over his son's failure to win Virgilia was too much for his father, who died shortly afterward. There was a great to-do after the father's death, for Braz's brother-in-law turned out to be an avaricious...

Brothers travel 90 minutes each way to play footballWhen you look up in the stands at a West Kentucky Warriors game, one of the first things you'll notice is the excitement level of parent Selah Crotser. Which is funny because she and her husband Pete says neither of them are huge sports fans. They're just big fans of their kids. "i think it's crazy sometimes when I drive only 25-30 minutes to get here, and then I think they drive an hour and a half to come see us and to play with us," senior lineman Case Harris said. "You just want to tell them thank you every time, and I try to as much as I can." They be the first to tell you the commute gets expensive. "No, it's not cheap," Pete Crotser said. "It's a commitment." "We try to help in on the funds, mow lawns, provide our own funds, but a lot of the time it's mom and dad," Jonathan Crotser said. "It gets hard sometimes, but we hold in together, and mom and dad hold in too. They let us come because they know we're really excited about this." Follow WPSD Sports on Facebook by clicking here. |

Gallatin County Edges Goreville in 1A Showdown
CARBONDALE -- Two of the deep south's top 1A teams went head to head Saturday afternoon at the Saluki Shootout.
Andrew Drone's 29 led Gallatin County to a 50-49 win over previously unbeaten Goreville. The Hawks led for nearly the first 30 minutes of the game, but Blake Gray's three put Goreville up 47-46. Trailing 49-48 with less than a minute, Drone's layup with 47 seconds left proved to be the game winner. Goreville's JT Russell had a clean look in the closing seconds for the win, but it bounced away. |
