Tully Park has become very popular with Oasis Day Camps, Red Bull Soccer Camps, lacrosse camps and games, baseball camps and softball games and many residents using the track and tennis courts. With this increase of park use I would encourage the Town of North Hempstead to install two AEDs in the park.
One at the track and one by the baseball fields.
Parents leave their precious children in the hands of Oasis Day Camp employees over the summer and head off to work knowing their children are in safe hands because the employees are CPR/AED trained. But if an unfortunate event did occur on the turf field it would take too long for an Oasis employee to retrieve the only AED onsite located in the pool area and bring it to the turf field .
Every six minutes, someone in the U.S. suffers Sudden Cardiac Arrest and every minute without an AED reduces a victims chances of survival by 10 percent.
Please don't let our lives and the lives of our children be at risk this summer put two AEDs in Tully Park.
And if the town has any legal concerns with the placement of AEDs in the park I can arrange a meeting or phone call with Attorney Steve Tannenbaum, the chairman of the Board of Directors of the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Association. His office is located in New Hyde Park.

Drivers—get ready to slow down. Nassau County is currently in the process of installing school zone speed cameras in an effort to enhance safety by encouraging drivers to travel with caution, as well as support law enforcement efforts to crack down on violators and prevent accidents caused by speeding.
Nassau County officials say Sewanhaka High School will receive a camera on Covert Avenue, which spans the eastern stretch of the property. Tulip Avenue runs in front of the high school and was also considered. Cameras could begin operation in September.

The Village of New Hyde Park finished its Operation Main Street project just in time, because the town's eligibility for federal funds is shrinking, officials announced last week.
"The qualifications revolve around money," trustee Donald Barbieri said. "Like how much income is being earned by people in the area. I guess as seniors move on, you can't buy an [expensive home] and it changed the demographic, shrinking our eligible area."

New York Mets pitcher Zack Wheeler and catcher Travis d'Arnaud brightened the day for some patients at Cohen Children's Medical Center last week in New Hyde Park, posing for pictures and handing out gifts and autographs. The players hung out with the kids in the afternoon, playing video games and answering questions.
They also found the time to make the rounds, stopping by bedsides to spread some cheer. Mr. Met also joined the tour and was a big hit with the children, who peppered him with questions about everything from his four-fingered hand to the whereabouts of the missing Mrs. Met.

The Sewanhaka Indians football team has a season of change in store.
The Indians have moved up from Conference III to Conference II, due to an increase in enrollment, and are set to face teams that they have never seen before, according to head coach George Kasimatis.
"It is hard to gauge where we will be in this conference," he said. "There is a lot of uncertainty as where we fit in."

MacGruber, the first big-screen comedy based on a "Saturday Night Live" skit to be released in a decade, hits theaters this weekend. A parody of the 1980s TV show "MacGyver," the film has so far received middling reviews, perhaps because, after a spotty record, the mere idea of an "SNL movie" is more likely to trigger stressful memories of flops like A Night at the Roxbury and Undercover Brother instead of The Blues Brothers. Should Lorne Michaels' cast just stick to TV? (See trailer below)
MacGruber transcends its small screen origins: Turning a 90-second SNL skit into a 90-minute feature has produced some "excruciating" films, admits Peter Travers at Rolling Stone. But MacGruber arguably "breaks the jinx" by positioning the skit within "the context of a 1980s action movie" and letting the character live. Busting out of the constraints of network TV, the movie creates "its own brand of explosive lunacy."
MacGruber is cruder than SNL, without being better: It's true that the movie's R-rated "shenanigans" — from f-bombs to graphic violence — ensure that MacGruber "doesn't feel like a SNL sketch stretched to feature length," says Steve Persall at the St. Petersburg Times, but that's about all it has going for it. "The nicest thing to say about MacGruber is that it's the best Saturday Night Live movie in a decade."
"Review: Sorry, SNL fans, but MacGruber is a bomb just waiting to go off"
TV sketches are inherently...sketchy: It's obvious why so few SNL spin-offs click, says Tom Charity at CNN. "A two-minute sketch demands the kind of shorthand that resists translation to the sustained dramatic requirements of a feature-length film." You always end up with "two or three stand-out sequences" with long "mediocre patches in between." As suspected, MacGruber is no exception.

Colin Powell Recites Democrat Talking Points in Support of Voter Fraud
Just what does it take to get an unhinged left-wing kook thrown out of the GOP? Endorsing a Marxist against his own party's candidate didn't work the first time or even the second. Publicly palling around with wild-eyed Whitey-hater Louis Farrakhan didn't work. Denouncing gun rights and accusing his party of anti-black racism even after it had made him Secretary of State at least in part because of his politically advantageous race didn't work either. Let's see if this does the trick:
Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says the Republican Party should abandon its efforts to curb voter participation through voter ID laws…
"The Republican Party should be a party that says, 'We want everybody to vote,' and make it easier to vote and give them a reason to vote for the party, not to find ways to keep them from voting at all."
Lest anyone take this phony rhetoric at face value, I'll translate: "Republicans had better not challenge us on systemic voter fraud, or out comes the race card yet again."
If Powell didn't pretend to be a Republican himself, no one would listen to him; he would be just another open mouth in a vast crowd of vicious moonbats. But as a black Republican who hates Republicans, he is guaranteed an avid audience from the "mainstream" media. The GOP is highly unlikely to develop enough backbone to toss him out, so he can bite again and again, like a rattlesnake left in a baby's crib by parents too cowardly to do anything about it.
On a tip from Henry B. Cross-posted at Moonbattery.

It's herd mentality to blame rating agencies: India Ratings
Last Updated: Sunday, March 24, 2013, 15:37
India Ratings
Fitch India
Indian economy

New Delhi: Terming Indian regulations for credit ratings as very effective and forward-looking, global giant Fitch's India unit head has said that at times there is a herd mentality to blame rating agencies for every financial problem.
"Sometimes there is a herd mentality to blame the rating agencies, if you do not find anything else to blame," India Ratings' Managing Director and CEO Atul Joshi said.
India Ratings, formerly known as Fitch India, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of global ratings major Fitch group.
Ever since a financial crisis broke out in the US in 2007-08, credit rating agencies have been often blamed for predicting a rosy picture of large banks and other institutions even when they were on the brink of collapse.
In an interview here, Joshi also said that there may be a need to make the investors familiar with the meaning of various ratings and symbol, but the regulator Sebi has defined various ratings in a very effective manner and agencies keep on addressing these issues through investor education programmes.
When asked why the rating agencies follow symbols like AAA, AA+ and BB-, rather than simpler terms like excellent, good, bad or average for creditworthiness of the entities, Joshi said: "In ratings space, there are always things between black and white, and moreover there are many shades of grey as well."
"If you have to move from black to white or from white to black, you come across a number of other shades. For example, there is not just day or night in 24 hours. There are also mornings, noons, afternoons and evenings," he said.
Joshi further said that the broad users of ratings were typically are institutional investors, HNIs, bankers, insurance companies and FIIs, who have their own credit departments doing their own research and analysis.
"The money invested by them is not a few thousands, but hundreds or thousands of crores of rupees. So they like to know more details and understand the different shades of grey," he said.
Joshi further said that Sebi has given definitions for different ratings, explaining what all these symbol means and the agencies need to follow the directions given by the regulator in this regard.
"We are required to assign ratings from an already defined set of ratings and rating symbols defined by the regulator," he added.
"The Sebi definitions for various ratings and symbols are very clear. The symbols are given so that the entities with different ratings could be differentiated easily.
"With different ratings, mostly it becomes easier for the investors in the first look to understand that one company is better than the other.
"The confusion arises when you are talking about cross-over or near cross-over ratings, such as BBB+ and A-. These are the instances when an investor would need to look at the definitions and understand the difference.
"But, by and large the ratings have been classified in such a way that intuitively people get to know whether a rating is good, bad or poor," he said.
Joshi said that India Ratings also lists out the triggers for its upgrades and downgrades and these triggers are very quantitative in nature.
"We give a very forward looking trigger, where we would say that there could be a downgrade if the debt level of a company reaches a certain point.
"These triggers help investors take an informed decision, as they can track whether the trigger point is getting closer or not. Similarly, we say there would be an upgrade if the company meets certain trigger points," Joshi added.
Praising the forward-looking approach of India regulators, he said that India got its rating regulations right 11 years ahead of most of the advanced economies.
"There is a decent amount of oversight, inspections, reviews etc. One of the major areas where the world today looks up to India is the forward-looking and conservative approach of financial regulators.
"There was a time when we were criticised for our conservative approach, but in times of crisis this conservatism along with a forward looking approach has paid off well," he said.
Joshi said that there not been any credit meltdown in India and therefore it was anyway incorrect to compare the Indian experience with the global scenario.
"Our regulators have always been forward looking, be it RBI or be it Sebi. If you look at developed markets, there were not any effective regulations for rating agencies till 2008 or so. But we had such regulations in place way back in 1997," he said.
"For the criticism levelled against rating agencies, I think that people do not look at the transition and default data.
"I'm not saying that there was no blame that rating agencies could take for the financial crisis, but mostly it is a herd herd mentality to blame the rating agencies if you can not find anything else to blame," he said.
Joshi said that the data for the last hundred years is available in public domain on the websites of the rating agencies and they show that the agencies have very accurately predicted the transitions and defaults.
"Markets even today continue to price to the rating. People feel more comfortable using ratings as benchmark and they now that ratings are assigned on the basis of a huge amount of data spread across all geographies of the world," he said.

Diner Reviews
Great food, amazing views,
professional service and dynamic buzz. Slanted Door hasn't lost its edge after all these years in the Ferry Terminal. Noise level is a little high but otherwise everything is great."
Dined on 8/19/2014
We had a great table with a view,
the service was very attentive, our waiter gave wonderful suggestions. And the food was delicious. A bit noisy, however."
Dined on 8/17/2014
Visited while on vacation in SF
with my fiancé. The meal was truly great. We had brunch outside, overlooking the bay. My ambiance and noise level comments are specific to outside which was incredibly relaxing. I walked inside the restaurant for a moment and it was very noisy/energetic. Seemed good for groups or friends. We started with shrimp dumplings - recommended by our waiter. These were delicious. I could have ordered these as a meal and been happy. Next we had shrimp with rice noodles followed by the chicken clay pot. The shrimp with rice noodles was good. The clay pot chicken was amazing. Our waiter was also great - attentive but we did not feel rushed. He also made an off the menu cocktail for me which was delicious."
Dined on 8/16/2014
I've been to Slanted Door on
several occasions, and I was really looking forward to the meal. I have to say it was a let down. The food was not as vibrant or as delicious as it has been in the past. The truth is that it was a so so meal, which is very disappointing. The waitstaff seemed all were preoccupied with being hipsters rather than efficient. When you have to waive people down for eater it is always frustrating. This was one of my go to spots in San Fran, and now I have to reconsider."
Dined on 8/16/2014
This is a great place to share a
meal. Reasonably priced for the area and great service. Funny thing though for a Vietnamese restaurant - the waiter did not know what was cafe sua da until I said Vietnamese coffee."
Dined on 8/15/2014
First and foremost the food was
great! But that's it's saving grace. The service is more of a "turn and burn" type. Our waitress didn't seemed amused by us. It was noisy but it's just that type of environment. When I say noisy, it's not the music but people talking. The ambience is cafeteria-like but it has a good vibe. The food runners were super nice to us and the gentleman that ran our leftovers to us after we forget it was really sweet. It's definitely not for first date night kind of restaurant, it's for girls night or dinner with friends."
Dined on 8/14/2014
Great place for dinner. We had
reviewed the restaurant before we visited SF, it was in a great location and good for people who enjoy good food in great surroundings. If possible ask for a booth with sea views. We were round the corner so not so scenic."
Dined on 8/14/2014
The food was very good. It was the
loudest restaurant I have ever dined in."
Dined on 8/14/2014
The price of everything except the
shaking beef was not worth the steep price tag. The restaurant was crowded until 10pm. Their cocktails are average, Moscow Mules should be served in a cooper mug. I do not think a cooper mug is too much to ask for. The shaking beef was the only very excellent thing on the menu. Everything else was different but did not taste as good as expected. The price of the meal was not bad when it came to the bill, however, the waiters recommend that you share the Shaking Beef entree, I personally do not think it is worth sharing the portion is not very big. 8oz when cooked appears quite small on the plate. It is the best item on the menu by far. Short ribs tasted funny, chicken clay pot was ok."
Dined on 8/13/2014
We arrived five minutes early for
our reservation and were told we would be attended to in five minutes. Twenty minutes later I asked what was happening and was told not long. We finally were shown to a table thirty five minutes late and we're not offered any apology or explanation. I also observed several other people waiting long after their reservation time. The food was superb, but not good enough to warrant the wait."
Dined on 8/12/2014
We received a $100.00 gift card
from my sister to try this restaurant; we spent over $100. The food was okay; small portions. We had to wait long for our food to come. Food was not superb just overpriced. Staff was semi-friendly. I think just a lot of hype for this restaurant. The view was nice if you were looking out the window. Locate din the ferry building which is a nice spot to walk around and enjoy the bay views. I did not like the bathroom area. It was coed; not enough privacy to refresh makeup as needed. Staff also used same restroom which felt uncomfortable."
Dined on 8/12/2014
Slanted Door's food is excellent,
without exception. Not just the tastes, but each item is cooked to perfection, so the meal is as much a textural treat as delicious. But if you like the people you are there with, limit your group to 4 or fewer, because it is too loud to hear any more than that. Even with four you will all be shouting."
Dined on 8/12/2014
Great atmosphere and the staff was
incredibly helpful recommending dishes that allow for a full variety of all their different flavors."
Dined on 8/12/2014
The food was excellent, service a
tad slow, however way too noisy. There are no soft furnishings to absorb any sound and the diners are packed in tight. Prices are reasonable for the quality."
Dined on 8/11/2014
This restaurant is SO LOUD we
couldnt speak across our table. Accoustics are awful which makes the ambiance so bad its like you are eating alone which is in contrast to their food sharing format."
Dined on 8/11/2014
Excellent food, great service and
amazing setting. Very noisy so not the most romantic places to go but totally worth it on all other aspects."
Dined on 8/11/2014
We were in town and tried this
based on recommendation. Excellent food and location. Very busy, so make reservations"
Dined on 8/11/2014
The food was not bad but the
service staff, right from the time we walked in to be seated to when we left were barely interested in treating us like guests. The waitress took our order without recommending anything (since most of us in our family are vegetarian) it was almost like our food was dumped on our table for us to eat, and when I tried telling the waitress when she came to collect the check about there being NO mushrooms in the tofu/mushroom dish we ordered she was very dismissive by saying that there was probably 'an accent' of mushrooms!! She or any of the others who came to serve us at our table did not ask once how the food was or how our experience was, which is what we normally experience anywhere else we dine!"
Dined on 8/10/2014
Located in Ferry Building, we were
able to grab a counter seat instead of waiting until our set reservation which allowed us to converse with the bartenders and their service attentive. Food portions larger than expected. We ordered 2 appetetizers and 2 entrees one the rib eye, cooked perfectly medium rare. The cellophane noodles with crabmeat was okay, not much crabmeat, overpriced for this dish. The craft drinks delish. Recommend this place but make a reservation weeks earlier."
Dined on 8/10/2014
The service was extremely poor,
food slow in coming, unfriendly waitstaff. We were sitting for at least 15 minutes before anyone came. The food was just thrown on the table by random staff, after a long wait. The prices were extremely expensive. We don't mind paying more for a special dinner, as long as there is value."
Dined on 8/10/2014
My boyfriend and I enjoyed dinner
at the Slanted Door while vacationing in San Francisco. Our friends who recommended it weren't able to join us at the last minutes and the restaurant was accommodating in taking our smaller party earlier. The daikon rice cakes were amazing; we'd never had anything like that. We also loved the shaking beef."
Dined on 8/10/2014
nice big restaurant always very
busy but the food is very very good and service can be rushed but atentive and nice location by the bay"
Dined on 8/10/2014
Went for dinner Friday night.
Expected a letdown. Waiter was incredibly helpful in selecting delicious items. Service friendly and attentive. Every starter and entree was excellent. Good wine list. Kind of a zoo but would return."
Dined on 8/8/2014
We arrived on time for our
reservation but had to wait at least 10-15 minutes to get seated even though another party that arrived after us got seated first. After being seated at a table that was almost touching the table next to us, we had another 10-15 minute wait for a server and water. The food was good but not great: the short ribs were tender but lacked flavor and the pork was overdone. Soup, spring rolls, and shrimp were good. We had empty water glasses throughout the night and did not see our server after getting our meal--we flagged down other wait staff when we were ready for the bill. Given the great reputation that this place has, we were gravely disappointed in the poor service and the mixed quality of the food."
Dined on 8/8/2014
Great food, stunning views. Bad
service. A but loud (a table of 6 was ok for a conversation) and felt a bit like a tourist attraction."

Slanted door is now a San
Francisco Institution, great food, very attentive staff, a terrific Ferry Building space. Only downside is the volume of the hubbub - don't miss it!"

Great food and service. My
husband is a chef and was very impressed by the quality of the food. Also staff was very helpful as we had a gluten-free guest to feed!"
Dined on 8/8/2014
Sub-par experience on Friday,
August 8th. Service was slow at times and the wine - $15 glass of pinot noir - seemed watered down. They were out of Jasmine rice. The food was good, though portions were small. The bill was too high considering our overall experience."
Dined on 8/8/2014
Haven't eaten here in years, but
wanted to bring the kids (10, 13). Very good food with simple, delicious flavors. We all enjoyed the meal of rib eye, clay pot chicken and squid. Shared two appetizers as well. Plenty of food for our family, but maybe not if you have big eaters. Food was solid and good, but will not likely make it a priority to come back."
Dined on 8/6/2014
Been a fan of the Slanted Door
since it's humble neighborhood beginnings on Valencia Street. The Ferry Building location has made it a mecca for tourists, so it can be difficult to get a reservation. The food is top drawer so it's worth the hassle. Dishes are perfect for sharing."
Dined on 8/6/2014
We had a reservation for 6pm, as
that was all that was available. We were seated on time. At about 7pm we were told that we needed to be finished by 7:30 because they needed the table. I have never been to a restaurant where they told us we only had an hour and a half to eat. We ordered plenty of food and drinks so it's not like we were taking up space."
Dined on 8/5/2014
always includes a visit it the
Slanted Door for us. The food and location are hard to beat."
Dined on 8/5/2014
It was a beautiful afternoon in
San Francisco and we were able to sit outside and enjoy the view and people. The waiter who has been their 11 years was outstanding and assisted in picking out the wine and entrees and the order the courses should be eaten. The food was absolutely amazing. Definitely will return the next time we're in San Francisco."

Fresh ingredients... healthy
vegetarian dishes on the menu. Never disappointed with the food or service."

I took my girlfriend here for our
3 month anniversary and all she could say was that she felt like she was on Cloud Nine! The staff was well-trained and knowledgeable. After grabbing drinks at the bar, our host grabbed a tray and took both of our wine glasses as he escorted us to our seats before our reservation time. We ordered the Vegetarian Spring rolls as an appetizer, which were delicious, while my girlfriend ordered the Organic Chicken Claypot and I opted for the Grass-Fed Estancia Shaking Beef for dinner. Both dishes were spectacular, with amazing flavor penetrating both meats! The ambiance was incredible, as we simply took in the beauty of the Bay Lights at night. The noise level was rather loud, but it's expected at a popular spot."
Dined on 8/4/2014
Had restaurant booked for well
over a month to celebrate both last night in San Francisco and 1st wedding anniversary. Expected a lot more from a restaurant billed as USA's best. Positives - location, the view, mannered staff, cleanliness and layout of restaurant. Negatives - waiting 30 mins for a table, not to sound picky but it was booked over a month in advance. Was squeezed into a corner with little room beside the adjoining table, which had the loudest couple in SF, so communication was near impossible, coupled with a crowded restaurant. Waiter though friendly was too busy to offer a personal touch and time between orders, drinks etc was too long. Price of food against quality, not justifiable. A massive disappointment."

I've been here twice and have
loved each visit. The Vietnamese cuisine paired with German wine is sheer perfection."
Dined on 8/3/2014
We somehow got a reservation for a
Sunday night in August for 6 people and it was definitely worth waiting for. The food is fantastic - it pays to take the waiter's recommendations as the dishes she favored turned out to be the very best of what we ordered. The shaking beef, the crispy spring rolls and the eggplant were standouts (and no one was inclined to get the eggplant side dish until she talked so highly about it - give it a try!). We will definitely go back and try all the things we didn't have room for!"
Dined on 8/3/2014
Waitstaff was completely
inattentive. We had to get her attention for dessert and the check. No water refills either. The runner was more attentive. Love the food, but I did not appreciate the service. Not my first time here, but it may be my last."

Mon, Mar 28, 2005
amateur-built/experimental Challenger II crashed Saturday in
Eastern Oregon killing two Spokane men. Ezra M. Ward, 71, and Keith
G. Bird were killed in the crash just after 2 p.m. about 10 miles
south of La Grande.
Captain Craig Ward of the Union County Sheriff's Office said the
wreckage was found on a steep hillside according to media reports.
Authorities don't know who was at the controls, as the men were
both pilots and co-owned the aircraft (File Photo, right).
Witnesses reported that the two seat Ultralight Trainer, a
52-horsepower Challenger II, seemed to be having trouble in a snow
squall and was either following the freeway or attempting to land
on it.
Captain Ward said strong winds and heavy snow probably
contributed to the crash.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Asian stock markets weak amid new Europe jitters after problems at Portugal bank
MUMBAI, India - Asian stock markets were muted Friday, following the lead of Wall Street traders spooked by worries about the soundness of a bank in Portugal that raised the spectre of more financial turmoil in Europe.
Japan's Nikkei 225 slipped 0.3 per cent to 15,176.27 and South Korea's Kospi fell 0.6 per cent to 1,999.00. Hong Kong's Hang Seng inched up 0.1 per cent to 23,260.06 while Taiwan's Taiex shed 0.2 per cent to 9,548.18.
The cautious mood was driven by fears that emerged Thursday about the financial stability of Portugal's Espirito Santo International, which reportedly missed a debt payment this week and was cited for accounting irregularities, echoing issues that sparked Europe's debt crisis four years ago.
"News from Portugal dampened risk sentiment," said Herv� Goulletquer, head of market research for Credit Agricole Bank in a commentary.
Elsewhere in Asia, Malaysian stocks were down 0.3 per cent to 1,886.89 after the central bank raised its key interest rate for the first time in three years.
Australia's S&P/ASX 200 added 0.6 per cent to 5,498.80. China's Shanghai Composite gained 0.4 per cent to 2,141.50.
The renewed Europe jitters dragged down Wall Street on Thursday. The Dow fell 0.4 per cent to 16,915.07. The S&P 500 index fell 0.4 per cent to 1,964.88 and the Nasdaq composite lost 0.5 per cent to 4,396.20.
In Europe, Germany's DAX closed down 1.5 per cent at 9,659.13 and the CAC-40 in France fell 1.3 per cent to 4,301.26. The FTSE 100 in London ended 0.7 per cent lower at 6,672.37.
In energy trading, benchmark U.S. crude for August delivery was down 13 cents at $102.80 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract gained 64 cents to $102.93 on Thursday.
In currencies, the euro was unchanged at $1.3603. The dollar dropped to 101.25 yen from 101.30 late Thursday.

I haven't submitted anything as of late, so I figured I'd put this one up. I started this back in August, and it was going to be about twice as long. It's a stand up bit from Dane Cook, with FF1 characters. But I got caught up in school, and the Megaman Collab, and fighting a losing battle against a crushing wave of apathy. Maybe I'll make the other half some day, but for now, I just don't care. Enjoy.

Abortion is murder. Period.
Poster Handle
Post Content
How about you create a world where 25,000 children a day do not die of starvation (and the like) first? To bring a child into a place where they are not given the best is cruelty at it's worst. As far as God is concerned both mother and child and father will be reunited as some point, what He is concerned about is the names being in the book of life and that is done at conception so an abortion has no effect on that aspect of 'morality'. Admitting you cannot do something is less of a crime that trying to raise a child and fucking it up.
In a perfect world, we could feed all children. We live in a world of nations. Not all people in those nations have self-determination. We can't foist our belief systems on another nation. Christians can't do it because of Free Will. We can only persuade and influence them.
In our nation, in my nation, we should do more about children being hungry. I agree wholeheartedly.
I also think we should care for all children, including the unborn. They are not mutually exclusive goals.
A lot of people will never make good parents. We make laws still to protect children.
Please verify you're human:
