Just as apples and stripped bass have their prime season, so too do potholes. They are predictable, unavoidable and a sometimes dangerous rite of passage on Long Island.
These gravelly, asphalt mini graves are the scourge of any commute, spilling coffee and jarring your teeth at every opportunity.
Snow piles are still visible two weeks after the blizzard of 2013 slammed the region. Freezing and unfreezing of asphalt creates stress. Roads also took a beating, snow plows scrapping and pounding the pavement as they cleared roadways.
The net result: The roads around New Hyde Park need fixing.
Patch is on a quest to uncover the roadways and intersections with the worst potholes. So sound off in the comments section and sound the alarm. Your car – and that minivan full of kids on the way to practice – will thank you.
And don't forget to check our New Hyde Park traffic map, powered by Mapquest.

Grant Lingafelter, a 6'5, 280 pound offensive tackle from Chagrin Falls, Ohio, recently flipped his verbal commitment from Miami, Ohio to West Virginia after an outstanding visit to Morgantown. Lingafelter, rated two stars by Scout.com, continues the trend of taller linemen preferred by Holgorsen and Bedenbaugh. And the best news is that he can probably add another 40 to 50 pounds to his already large frame. That weight addition will likely require a redshirt season (and a lot of hard work and calorie intake) but Lingafelter has the potential to develop into a great tackle if given the proper coaching and experience. Lingafelter actually had offers from a ton of MAC schools as well as Cincinnati and Marshall, but had been a Miami RedHawk verbal for most of the fall before switching to the Mountaineers and the allure of the Big XII. Look for the big man to add depth and contribute to a very strong line in the next 2-3 years.
Welcome home, Grant Lingafelter!

Parish council grants will not be cut, says civic chiefs (From Hampshire Chronicle)

Parish council grants will not be cut, says civic chiefs
6:00pm Thursday 9th January 2014 in News By Wesley Rock
CIVIC chiefs say a grant paid to parish councils by the city will not be reduced, despite government cuts.
The government's council tax reduction scheme means poorer residents can receive up to 100 per cent off their council tax. Central government then provides money to the city council to compensate for these reductions (£150,000 last year), and the money can be distributed to parishes.
Cllr Stephen Godfrey, Winchester's finance chief, said there had been a reduction of 14 per cent in funding for 2014/15, but the council will be able to mitigate the cuts.
"Unless the situation changes, we will maintain the distribution of the full and original grant in roughly the same proportions as we did this year and last," he said.

Flute World does not expect customers to purchase a flute without play-testing it first. As a convenience to our customers we offer a Free 4 day trial. Do not fall for "Free Shipping" traps (final sale/no return policy) from other companies that do not offer the advantage of a trial before purchase.
Unlike other flute vendors, our US and Canadian customers are able to place trial flute orders on our website! We are also one of the only companies that do not charge any trial fees!
How our trial policy works:
- We offer a 4-day trial period for our US and Canadian customers, which starts the day the package is received.
- A maximum of 2 instruments can be sent out at a time.
- Instruments are shipped via UPS or FedEx 2nd Day Air, signature required.
- A valid U.S. or Canadian bank-issued credit card is required and a hold will be placed for the entire amount of the instruments, plus shipping and insurance costs. Orders will be shipped once billing information is verified. Your bank must participate in the AVS (Address Verification System) to be accepted.
- It is the customer's responsibility to contact Flute World by the last day of the trial with their decision.
- If an instrument is being returned, it must be in transit back to Flute World by the end of the last day of the trial.
- Failure to contact Flute World means that the customer acknowledges that the instrument(s) is/are a final sale.
- Customers are responsible for all shipping and insurance charges both ways.
- Customer is liable for any loss or damage incurred while instruments are in their possession.
- Instruments must be returned in the same condition as when they were received and must include all additional items, such as cleaning rod, case cover, plugs and cleaning cloths, etc.
Shipping costs calculated on the website at the time orders are placed are merely estimates, and will be adjusted accordingly once your order is received in the store based on destination zip code, package weight, values of the instruments being shipped and shipping insurance costs. By placing an order for an instrument on the website, you authorize Flute World to adjust the amount of the charge or hold to your credit card.
Unfortunately, we are unable to offer trial periods on instruments shipped to countries other than the US or Canada. Any international instrument order must be pre-paid via bank wire transfer. For more information, please contact the Flute World Instrument Department at firstname.lastname@example.com prior to placing an order online.
For more information about shipping policies for instruments, click here.
We believe in keeping our prices low, but consistent with high quality service. We promise each customer a fair price corresponding to the manufacturer's price. However, due to conditions beyond our control, (manufacturer's increases and policies, foreign currency fluctuations, etc.) prices are subject to change without notice.
We look forward to providing helpful service!

You may find the name of the device in JS's 'navigator.userAgent'.

Weird things comes when you check 'navigator.appName' string ('Netscape') and 'navigator.appVersion' ('7' on 3rd. ed. FP2, '5' on 5th ed. emulator)
BTW, there's always a way to access almost everything... you may write a simple local server (e.g. in C++ or Python) that will provide such type of information and then access it from your widget e.g. via HTTP and your own protocol.

Staff Writer
---- — A waterfront activist says she has plans to transform the long-empty Rogers Street I-4, C-2 lot into an industrial park in the same model as the state's Jodrey Fish Pier, but concedes that her proposal lacks financing and what she says is the necessary city backing.
Susanne Altenburger, widow of globally-known boatbuilder Phil Bolger and now a leading partner in Phil Bolger and Friends Inc., has created elaborate plans to build what she calls an "ocean innovation campus" on the city-owned waterfront lot, which has failed to attract a commercial developer through its formal request for proposals, or RFP.
The campus would be a working boat building facility for fuel-efficient vessels, where high school and/or community college students could come to learn about boat innovation and work on real projects.
"We need to be building a sense of pride in collaboration with the schools here," Altenburger said. And, she said, the ocean innovation campus would ignite that historic maritime pride.
The city published a request for proposals for the I-4, C-2 lot in late 2011 and received no bids. That first request mandated that an applicant must prove they could generate $75,000 in tax revenue.
Now, Mayor Carolyn Kirk has submitted a revised request for proposals to city councilors for approval, but at least in the mayor's draft, an applicant would need to submit a down payment of $10,000 simply to apply — and Altenburger has not mustered that.
"That would be pretending I could pull a project off financially, which I simply can't," Altenburger said.
Instead, Altenburger is proposing the city request state funding for her plans, making the city a facilitator, or the go-between, for state funding and what would still evolve as a private industry project along the lines of the current fish pier.
The I-4, C-2 lot is within the boundaries of the state Designated Port Area, meaning that at least half of any business on the land must be totally water dependent, a qualification that Altenburger's plan meets. The project requires a certain amount of water area for launching the fuel-efficient crafts designed by Phil Bolger and Friends, Inc., and the port area designation also opens the city up to receive special state funding for the lot, she says.
"The city should apply for its own RFP. Don't wait for somebody else and try to accommodate," said Altenburger, who adamantly opposes any city option to sell the I-4, C-2 site, as the new RFP proposal would allow. "As America's oldest seaport, how will you be able to control yourself, if you sell your only DPA property?"
Along with the boat launching site to be built on the coastal edge of the lot, the proposed $12 million site would employ a group of people working in administration, foremen, sales and tourism jobs. The standardized industrial building, would be modified with murals that depict maritime history as painted by Gloucester artists, a rooftop garden space, and a small performance space.
The key feature though, would likely be the 180-by-120-foot indoor shop where people would build the long, lean, fuel efficient vessels to be used in fishing, maritime research, for tourism, and as pleasure boats.
Altenburger said she has made contact with Gloucester school officials and an official at the North Shore Technical High School, in hopes of drawing students to a unique experience as students in what would be the region's only saltwater campus specializing in boat building.
"It's not an alien experiment on a clean table," Altenburger said. "They would have to crawl all over the boat."
While not all of the students would go on to become shipwrights, Altenburger noted that students could apply learned skills, like hydraulics work and experience with wiring, in other fields, even in jobs based on dry land.
"These are portable skill sets that would not expire," Altenburger said.
And, said Altenburger, her plan could push the development of Gloucester's marine business forward as those trained at the campus might start their own maritime-dependent businesses here.
"People who work in this thing will eventually start pealing off, saying I think I can do this better or specialize in that," Altenburger said. "The question is, are we going to stand in our own way?"

The Mother's Day shootings hit home to a lot of people, including our own Eyewitness News Political Analyst and Gambit columnist Clancy DuBos. And that's the topic of Clancy's Commentary this week.
Clancy DuBos / Eyewitness News Political Analyst
NEW ORLEANS -- Mother's Day started out as another beautiful spring day in New Orleans. A day for families to gather — and for Social Aid and Pleasure Clubs to second-line. We all know what happened then.
Three young gunmen, apparently firing at random, shot at least 19 people. Some victims are still hospitalized, including Gambit correspondent Deborah "Big Red" Cotton.
Deb's injuries hit home with a lot of folks, because she has dedicated herself to documenting and celebrating New Orleans' second-line culture. She also lamented, and tried to do something about, the violence that sometimes preys upon second lines — through no fault of the marching clubs.
Deb and several others are still hospitalized, but I think the lesson that she would want us to take away from this tragedy is: Don't make this just about one victim. Take care of all 19.
I think that's the lesson that the mayor and ministers and many others have been asking us to get. We all have to care about all the victims, not just those we know. If we wait until violence "hits home," we've waited too long.
For too long, New Orleans' violent crime problem has been somebody else's problem. It's time for all of us to take ownership of it. Until we do, it's never going to stop.

RAD is based on a defense system that does not require extensive training or exceptional physical prowess. The course has been taught on college campuses across the nation, as well as to women's groups, including senior citizens.
The RAD class will take place at the Maryville Police Department located at the Maryville Municipal Center, 400 West Broadway Avenue. The Thursday, June 19 and Friday, June 20 classes will be held from 6-9 p.m. The final class on Saturday, June 21 will take place at Maryville High School from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

A teen whose burned body was found after an apartment fire earlier this month was allegedly murdered by a friend over a few hundred dollars from a tax return, authorities said Wednesday.
Shakeem L. Carter, 20, faces 15 different charges and is being held without bail, Chester County prosecutors said at a morning news conference.
Authorities found the body of 17-year-old Kevin Allen, a Norristown high school junior, on Feb. 12 as they extinguished a fire in his father's North Coventry Township apartment.
Investigators previously suggested that the killer made mistakes that would lead to an arrest.
On Wednesday, they disclosed that Allen had apparently told his friend, Carter, that he was going to get a few hundred dollars in cash his dad left him at home, the proceeds from a tax return.
Carter is accused of going with Allen, taking the money, slitting his throat, stabbing him 20 times and then dousing his body with cooking oil before setting it on fire, authorities said.
Investigators found transit surveillance video that shows the duo going to Pottstown, then Carter coming back on the bus, checking his hands and counting money. Prosecutors also showed off weapons that they say were left at the murder scene.
Carter was arrested Tuesday and charged with murder, arson, robbery, causing a catastrophe, criminal mischief, possessing instruments of crime, recklessly endangering another person and abuse of a corpse.
The 20-year-old was denied bail at an arraignment, and a preliminary hearing has been set for March 7.

text: Apple reveals stringent rules for Mac App Store Technology 21 October 10 by Mark Brown Tweet Apple Following the announcement of the Mac App Store, an upcoming centralised location for downloading new Mac programs, Apple has revealed an exhaustive list of stringent rules and guidelines for developers eyeing up the new distribution platform.A lot of the more general, content-based rules are similar to the guidelines that Apple published for the iPhone and iPad earlier this year.Apple wants to fill its store with reliable programs, which work as advertised and aren't ugly (apps that have "complex or less than very good" user interfaces will be ditched) or offensive (downloads that are "frequently pornographic" will be banned).There are more functionality guidelines than the iOS App Store, thanks to the greater complexity of the Mac OS architecture. Apps can't install kernel extensions, use their own copy protection, update outside the App Store, install resources in shared locations, download additional code or leave icons on the dock or desktop. As for the content found inside the app, you can't be defamatory, offensive, mean spirited, disgusting or upsetting. Games will be hit hardest (although, hardcore games will likely take refuge within Steam), as enemies getting "maimed, shot, stabbed, tortured or injured" won't be allowed in.Apple has seen a turbulent history of disgruntled and frustrated developers get their apps rejected on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Despite hosting more than 300,000 apps and generating over seven billion downloads, the App Store frequently crops up in the news when a high profile developer or person -- including Google, Nine Inch Nails and a Pulitzer Prize-winning web cartoonist -- gets their download banned by the company's strict gatekeepers. Of course, unlike iOS where it's Apple's way or the highway, developers on Mac can always deliver their dodgy, uncurated and unchecked programs in the usual manner without the user needing to "jailbreak" their computer. They'll just miss out on the advertising and support from Apple. Developers on Mac are already gearing up to submit their apps to Apple when the App Store opens for submissions this November. Firemint, creator of several iPhone and iPad games, has announced that Flight Control HD will be heading to the Mac App Store.

Diner Reviews
Food, service, and outdoor seating
make for a very satisfied customer. I'll be back often."
Dined on 8/8/2014
The service can not be outdone.
The staff is quite attentive and yes they remember if you've everdined with them before. The food is quite good and the view of the Potomac quite nice. Would highly recommend."
Dined on 7/31/2014
Muze is the Mandarin's second
restaurant (CityZen being one of the best in DC), and it is more casual. I will say, however, that I cannot imagine better food or service, and I have been to most of the best restaurants in DC (except CityZen). Our waitress was extraordinarily attentive and pleasant. I've rarely enjoyed that level of service. Between the members of our family, we ordered a wide variety of entrees and appetizers, and everything was so good that it was one of those "oh, you need to taste this" meals. It was my wife's birthday, and the staff treated her like royalty, which was much appreciated."
Dined on 7/28/2014
Went for lunch on a Saturday.
They were only serving brunch, a very limited menu if you were expecting lunch. Ate outside on a pleasant day weather-wise but a lot of noise from trains passing by and the highway. Food was average, nothing exceptional. We only went there because of convenience as we were staying at the hotel."
Dined on 7/26/2014
The dinner service was very good,
but the personnel failed to seat us at the table we had requested six weeks before the reservation."
Dined on 7/25/2014
We went here thinking it was going
to be a great dinner. The service was the best part of the experience. Our meals were not hot and on the skimpy side. It was over priced for what we ordered. I would not eat dinner here again."
Dined on 7/21/2014
The food and service are great in
this restaurant, while the prices are affordable."
Dined on 7/20/2014
2 hostesses so NOT on the same
page. same questions x2 in waiting and being seated. server MIA repeatedly. endless wait for our food and water,while tables with different servers were taken care of quite differently."
Dined on 7/17/2014
I brought my family to muze for
dinner. I thought the food was pretty good but waayy overpriced for what it was. Our dinner bill came to 230 dollars for three people with one glass of wine each with appetizer and dinner entree. The atmosphere was more airport style restaurant environment. I could tell that most of the people at the restaurant were hotel guests who didn't know any better about other places in DC."
Dined on 7/11/2014
The Muze never disappoints - food
and service are 1st rate!!!!"
Dined on 7/9/2014
The service was impeccable and the
staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. The ambiance and view makes for a great combination. The menu offered a good selection of options, and everything was well prepared and tasted great. They didn't have the filet that night but the ribeye substitution was still very good. The apple trio was really interesting with a balance of sweet and acidic in one dish."
Dined on 7/5/2014
Mediocre food... overpriced.
Wonderful hotel, but with so many other fabulous dining options close by... Don't waste your time or $."
Dined on 7/4/2014
Enjoyed immensely. Have dined
there several times and stayed overnight at the Mandarin Oriental."
Dined on 7/3/2014
A friend of mine was in DC for
business, staying at the Mandarin Oriental. I chose Muze for our lunch date simply for convenience, and it was perfect for a long relaxed catching-up visit. The restaurant had a lively lunchtime energy, but was roomy enough and quiet enough that we didn't feel we were sharing our conversation with others.The fried soft-shell crab sandwich was delicious - crunchy on the outside, moist and flavorful on the inside, with a tangy sriracha mayo. Our waiter graciously replaced the fries that came with the sandwich with a lightly dressed mesclun salad that was just the right complement to the meal. The best part of all was that the waiter let us linger over our coffee and really have a nice visit."
Dined on 6/4/2014
lots of business meetings on the
lobby and restaurant. more a business lunch crowd then ladies who lunch crowd. "
Dined on 5/30/2014
Fantastic venue for a serious
business breakfast or lunch, as well as pleasant casual dining. Food choice and quality is excellent and the service is really remarkable."
Dined on 5/21/2014
We went here for Mother's Day and
was very surprised that only 5 other tables were served while we were there. They did not provide a special menu for that day only the regular menu was provided. The online menu which I had looked at for the past month, that did not change, had some changes. Noticeably the items I wanted to order, the oysters and the duck. The service was very attentive and the food very well presented. Dinner took almost 3 hours so this is not a fast affair."
Dined on 5/11/2014
We enjoyed a delicious filet
mignon dinner at Muze before going to Arena Stage Staurday evening. The service was excellent, the view of the Washington Channel were peaceful and relaxing as the sun set, and the food was delicious."
Dined on 5/10/2014
Three of us took our
administrative assistant here last week for Administrative Professionals' Day. The restaurant is beautiful and the service is attentive. The food, however, is another story. It was mediocre at best, and over-priced. Two salads, two sandwiches and one dessert and non-alcoholic beverages came to over 150 bucks, with tip. And the portions were small, meaning I was still hungry when we left. Save your money, go somewhere where the wallpaper is not as good, but the food is better."
Dined on 4/23/2014
The restaurant staff was very
friendly and attentive to our needs. But there was a raucous lunch crowd and it was very hard to talk about serious subjects.......................reminded me of a football game. So if you need a little bit of privacy and quiet try their lounge. Otherwise it was a good experience and lunch outing. I still highly recommend this as a good lunch spot!"
Dined on 4/23/2014
For the cost, we expected white
table cloth linen and there was none -- not even placemats! My meal was fairly good (shredded lamb) but my friend's meal, salmon with kale and cauliflower, was particularly bland. Overall, not as enjoyable or delicious as we had hoped for though our server brought the wine bottles to the table for us to see before he poured. That was nice, as was the softened (not hard) butter for the bread service. "
Dined on 4/16/2014
Consistently an enjoyable dining
experience with impeccable service and beautiful surroundings."
Dined on 4/14/2014
Valet parking, beautiful view,
delicious lunch, and steps away (exit the rear of hotel and across the walkway) from the Cherry Blossoms. Skip the parking nightmares and treat yourself and your visitors."
Dined on 4/10/2014
Being a busy professional in D.C.
, it is important to find an appropriate place for a special lunch meeting that is more refined than the food courts and eateries in the area. This location fulfilled my expectations. Besides the enjoyable ambiance of the the Mandarin hotel itself, the restaurant staff was very nice, efficient, accommodating and responsive to our requests (limited time, food needed to be served promptly, seating location, etc.). The food was delicious (seared tuna sandwich). Thank you Muse! Will be back!"
Dined on 4/10/2014
I happen to catch the Cherry
Blossoms in full bloom and this was the closest restaurant to the Tidal Basin in Open Table that was above 4 stars (and had seating available). The service was very good, but a little slow. The portions were adequate & nicely arranged. It was above what my company allows for meals in DC, so a bit on the pricey side. I would reserve this more for special occasions and request a window table with a view of the water."
Dined on 4/9/2014
Muze only had one stellar and one
bad review on Yelp - so I didn't know what to expect. We had a party of 6 for a business dinner. The service was fabulous but not intrusive. Everything we ordered was delicious. For appetizers we had the fried oysters, Kobe sliders, and ahi tuna. All were fantastic. For dinner I had their duck, which was cooked perfectly. Overall, this was a great find."
Dined on 4/8/2014
Food was imaginative and very
good. Service was exceptional."
Dined on 4/3/2014
I am never displeased when
visiting this spot! I have only eaten here at lunch but the experience and service provided is excellent. The food portions are filling but not stuffing you. Perfect portion size! Healthy eating with flavor and flair! I love the unsweetened tea, the only beverage I EVER order...beautiful views or river. I love the menu choices and items are so fresh and excellently prepared! Hats off to the chef!"
Dined on 4/1/2014
Do you know when you read a menu
before going to a restaurant and you can almost taste the item as you 're reading it? Well, that was my experience with Muze. I started with the she crab soup- amazing crab flavors and and for my main course I ordered a side of seaweed to go along with the rockfish entree. The seaweed salad coupled with the light but flavorful fish was all I needed to know the chef knows good food. I vow to go back and treat hubby to the same meal - it was just that awesome."
Dined on 3/29/2014
Dear Muze Staff, Wow. One of the
most memorable evenings I have had. Great service, food, ambiance. Thankyou"
Dined on 3/28/2014
My husband and I always eat here
before a show at Arena Stage, The food is varied, well prepared, and interesting. Service is attentive, but not overly so."
Dined on 3/27/2014
Unfortunately, this is the 3rd
time i have visited this restaurant. Each time has been for a business luncheon and 2 of 3 times, we have waited over an hour to be served. Will not return."
Dined on 3/25/2014
Meal was excellent! Everyone had
the Salmon with jam and were really impressed. Ordered a birthday dessert (kind of a speciality cupcake with cream filling they do). Overall amazing."
Dined on 3/24/2014
Fine dineing at its best.
Excellent service and outstanding dishes. A trifle expensive but well worth the price. Once we found this gem we have returned repeatedly."
Dined on 3/7/2014
My wife and I have eaten at this
restaurant under its several names for many years. Since its latest transformation from Sou'wester to Muze, we've noticed a dramatic price increase. The quality of food, however, has not increased apace. We eat out a lot and have concluded that Muze's menu is overpriced compared to food and service of comparable quality. The food is good, but not good enough to justify the prices. We'll probably continue to eat there because it's convenient when we have theatre at Arena Stage."
Dined on 2/28/2014
The service was friendly, not over
the top, very attentive. Small plates were available. Martinis very good."
Dined on 2/26/2014
It was our first time dining here,
and we were thoroughly delighted. The food, service, and atmosphere were wonderful. We look forward to dining there again soon."
Dined on 2/21/2014
Away from the 14th street/Shaw
bustle, great food, good ambiance, reasonable prices, outstanding service and easy on-street parking on most days--make this a keeper."
Dined on 2/21/2014
We sat in a small area off the
main dining room. Our section had white tablecloths which we appreciated, which the main area did not have. Also, out area was not full which is one reason it was quiet, but we had the impression that the main dining area, which was full, was pretty quiet too. We had been told the food was outstanding but that the service was not yet up to par. We had excellent, attentive service, but that too may have been in some measure a function of the restaurant's not being full. We went seeking a a good place for a quiet tête à tete and good food, and that's what we got."
Dined on 2/15/2014
I brought my sister on a little
Sister Dinner Date for Valentine's Day and we had a great time. Everything about the dining experiences was wonderful. I highly recommend Muze for special occasions."

guys...WANA. Where do I begin. It's been awesome. I've felt very close to it this year. I'm amazed at everyone's selflessness. It's really awesome to see. We have such wonderful success stories that I can't wait to share with you in our recap post.
I need you all to know though that this year's WANA will end on the 23rd. WANA will be back next year. Great work everyone and for those of you who have received help and are comfortable doing so, please send me pictures and I'll post them in the recap. Success stories without pictures are welcome too.
Please keep checking though. I'll continue to post those needs who haven't been met yet.
I'm going to wrap up our what-the-f-do-i-get-this-person for said holiday, series in one post. Why? Because Ruby is a baby and knows nothing of Christmas. I wish someone smacked me and told me that when G had just turned one. Parents, save your money. Seriously. And B and I? We don't want or need much. Well, ok I want everything always. But we don't need much. But I'm here to help and a gift list you shall receive.
**the pictures are not the links, the links are in the body of the text in orange***
Let's start with my little red jewel, Miss Ruby.
This list was researched after going through 2 babies of year 1. I know what they dig. They mostly dig floor food and electric cords, but if you don't feel like buying that, get this stuff.
1) Prince Lionheart Wheely Bug: So I thought about this when G was 1 and I passed because it's not free. And an empty box is free. But, I've since seen kids with these things and they love them. The kids FLY on them as they get older and use their legs to propel themselves all over town. And really? That bee? adorbs.
2) Fisher-Price Cruise and Groove Ballapalooza: One key about buying for a little sibling is finding something that the older sibling would think is fun too. Although then you get into MINE NO MINE NO MINE. But you win some you hide in the laundry room for some. This scream rainy day to me. Mostly because you get it in this big box and it's literally a billion pieces. And guess what? I'm not putting that together. Kids are.
3) Happy Family : Ruby got a little doll house for her birthday and I love the idea of buying a family that is a different race than your own. And obviously I want the Asian family. And if ONE of you says I'm racist, I will literally choke you through your computer.
4) Green Toys Build-a-Bouquet Floral Arrangement Playset: We love Green Toys here. They are all made from recycled materials. They also just feel cool. Like not that thin scary slice your throat open plastic. Kids change the flowers all around to make different flowers. Or something like that.
5) Diggin Wobble Deck Extreme Balancing Game: This is a balance board that plays different games with the kids. You can hold it and play or stand on it. I hear about it all the time and that it's super fun for all.
6)FurReal Friends Daisy Plays-With-Me Kitty Toy: So we were at Target and saw this in the aisle and Ruby was mesmerized. At the time I was like, this is stupid and expensive. Fast forward 1 month and Ruby is obsessed with cats. OBSESSED. And not even our cats. Just cats. She sees a drawing of a cat and runs around the house holding it screaming KITTY KITTY! So this present becomes more valid. It's eerily real. So take that as you will.
7) Smart Planet Piano Mat: To be fair, this is big. Really big. This comes out when it's raining and kids are throwing lamps at each other's heads. Then you're all…LET'S PLAY WITH THE GIANT PIANO. It gets great reviews and you know you wanted this when you saw Big, when you were a kid.
8) Corolle Mon Premier Bebe Calin Grenadine Doll: I took an informal poll of facebook friends on the best babydoll. This and a billion dollar doll was recommended most. Billion dollar doll gets flushed down the toilet and drawn on with sweet potato. So this doll is the winner.
9) Rody Inflatable Hopping Horse: This was another one that I saw all the time when G was 1. Then I went to a place that had like 7 of them and every kid was bouncing around like a mental patient. Ruby's second obsession after cats is horses. She calls them SIES (horsies). She would love this.
10) 12′ Parachute: Ok we actually own this. But I had to tell you about it. I bought it for G's birthday party and kids went nuts. All the parents were like, did you rent that? NO I BOUGHT IT. And it was only 29 dollars. And my kids are obsessed with it. We make forts with it, we drag kids on it, we fly it. It's the best. BUY THIS. YOU WILL THANK ME.
11) Educational Insights Magic Moves Talking Electronic Wand: This is cute. It is sort of a pseudo parent though. It says things like "stomp like a dinosaur" "freeze!" "jump in the air" and the kids do it and the wand knows. IT KNOWS.
Next onto buying gifts for a man who hates everything and who fits into nothing. Sounds super! B is 6'4" but pretty broad and slim with dinosaur feet and long arms. So. EVERYTHING gets returned. If you have a tall, slim, broad guy. Read on.
1) Jcrew Tall Vintage button down and Jcrew Tall Vintage Oxford: These are some of the few shirts that are slim enough that they don't look like garbage bags on B. They are also long enough but not night gown long. And obv the quality is good. One of these is a really nice gift. Jcrew is 30% off with code GIFTNOW
2) Gap Striped Pullover: Do you know how long it's taken to find the right long sleeved shirts? Some are too long some are too wide some are "hurty fabric" (eye roll a million billion). Gap got it right THANK JESUS. You can wash and dry them too and they don't turn into shmatas ***Use code GAPDEAL for 40% off!
3) Striped Henley Hooded T: Mix it up and add a hood in there. Go CRAZY.
4) Clarks Desert Boot: You all know I own these. And I got B to try them on. Guess what? HE LIKED THEM. Guys. This is unheard of. B hates all shoes. He has widefeetandlongfeetandarchesthatdosomething and blaaaaah. These are so comfortable, they come in a billion colors (we tried them ALL on.). And they look very cool.
5) Fogless Shower Mirror
For TEN years B has had this stupid mirror in the shower that has this tiny blue light that does nothing and falls down at 3am making me think that we are being shot at. FINALLY he got this one and it's so cool. You fill it up with shower water in the back and it really stays fogless. Go science.
6) Big Socks. Can you handle the excitement? I found these in JCPenney one year and I was sent back for more. If your male person has wide feet, get these dumb socks. ok?
Ok my list is not stuff I want this year. It's mostly stuff that I have that I think you should have or gift too. MOM, DON'T BUY ME ANYTHING. I DON'T NEED THINGS.
1)Sky Planter : I know, what's become of me? My first wish is a planter. I like plants. Especially basil. I'm out of space on my counters. They are filled up with clay handprints and vitamins. I get to hang this up. I love it.
2) Free People Miles of Henley Dress: I love a good maxi. You can put a sweater over it in the winter or a turtleneck under it. Belt it, cardigan it, boot it. So versatile. I love how casual this one is.
3) Free People Honeycomb Mix Pullover: My daily uniform now is skinny jeans, desert boots and a longish sweater. I love this one so. It's long enough in the back too to wear with leggings.
4) Zella Live in Leggings: Speaking of leggings…I took another poll on facebook of my personal friends favorite leggings. I got more responses than any of my other posts on facebook. I got a lot of recommendations for leggings over 100 dollars. Um no. But these got a good response from some of my fanciest friends. People swear by these bad boys.
5) Gap Legging Jeans: A while back I did an extensive search of the best skinny jeans. I tried really high end brands. I even own some of them and every single day, I'm still reaching for these jeans first. They hold their shape, they aren't too restricting and they are a great length. I really love these. STILL. If you are buying as a gift, they run big. I'm a 27 and I buy a 2.
6) Timex for JCrew military watch with other bands: I also own this. But I feel very cool when I wear it. It's also not a crazy price in terms of watches. It's mens so it gives you that oversized sporty vibe. I love buying new bands for it too. Jcrew is 30% off with code GIFTNOW.
7) Crystal Rectangles Necklace: Because every girl loves a J.Crew necklace.
8) Free People Turn up the Sun Sweater: Sigh…I love the Free People. But I can only dream about a lovely sweater like this. Cozy, comfy, hippie cool.
9) Adorn 512 Hand stamped Necklace: I have this in Rose gold. The length is key. It sits right in that little nook between your collar bones. It's rose gold and I love it. And every mom would love it with her child's initial. Or husband. Or dog. Or F. Just because.
10) Smartwool I LOVE SMART WOOL. If you haven't tried it or you don't care about socks, trust me. I don't care either. Until I tried smart wool. I'm exclusive now.
11) Leopard Belt: I own this. I love this. It's the best gift because it's cool with anything. Ratty t shirt day? Throw it on. Big maxi dress? Belt it with this. It's always cool. Love.
12) FP Voile and Lace Trapeze Slip: This is one of FP's best sellers. The model makes it look trashy. But wear it as the coolest layering piece ever. Over long sleeves, under a sweater, over a long skirt, over jeans. I have it in black but there are a million colors. It runs a little small.
There you have it friends. Your holiday guide complete. As always inform me on things that I missed.
Keep on WANA-ing.

ST. LOUIS -- The Cardinals and Michael Wacha, the organization's top pick in last week's First-Year Player Draft, have reached an agreement, general manager John Mozeliak confirmed on Tuesday. The agreement will be final once Wacha passes a physical, which is scheduled for Thursday.
Wacha, who the Cardinals took with the No. 19 overall pick, was the first to disclose that he was headed to St. Louis for a physical, doing so in a tweet late Monday night. That tweet was directed to Jordan John, a pitcher for the University of Oklahoma, who was taken by Detroit in the sixth round of the Draft. In the tweet, Wacha said he was flying to St. Louis on Wednesday.
Wacha, 20, just finished his junior season at Texas A&M, where the right-handed starter went 9-1 with a 2.06 ERA and 116 strikeouts in 113 1/3 innings. The recommended signing bonus for that slot in the Draft is $1.9 million, though Wacha is not locked into agreeing to that figure.
Wacha was taken with the pick the Cardinals earned as compensation from the Angels for the free-agent departure of Albert Pujols over the winter. The Cardinals' other first-round pick, outfielder James Ramsey, remains unsigned. He was taken four picks after Wacha.

Marc Trestman made great strides with the offense of the Chicago Bears, but his defense had a precipitous fall from grace. Do you agree with the Sporting News' placing him 25th among NFL coaches?

MARYSVILLE, IN (WAVE) - One town that knows all about rebuilding after a storm is Marysville, Indiana. At the time of the March 2, 2012 tornadoes, one law enforcement official said Marysville had been completely wiped off the map. For those who remain, rebuilding has been slow and painful.
Where they used to count neighbors, Patricia and Marvin Tucker now count new construction, but more commonly empty slabs where homes used to be.
It's been almost 15 months after a tornado passed right over their home, destroying about half of it and leaving no structure in Marysville untouched.
"To look out the door and not see nothing over there, not even a house, well it wasn't hardly a pile of rubble," Marvin said.
Patricia and Marvin say looking at what's happened in Moore, Oklahoma brings it right back home.
"Try to have faith," Patricia said, "cause we had someone with us that day and they do too."
They've also had help of the earthly kind over the past year, but it's been difficult. Still the Tuckers say there was no question they'd return home. They'd just paid off their house when the tornado hit. It was theirs. Not everyone who used to live in Marysville feels the same.
"She says she'd like to come back but she didn't think she'd be able to go through it, be able to rebuild again," Patricia said of one of her former neighbors.
The Tuckers say if there's one thing they've learned through the misfortune that hit their town and that's playing out again in Oklahoma, it's gratitude.
"Be thankful for what you've got," said Marvin.
One key difference in Marysville from the tornadoes in Oklahoma is that despite the destruction, no one lost their life in the town.

10 Places to See Spectacular Fall Colors
We know that New England takes the cake when it comes to spectacular fall colors, but believe it or not there's plenty for the whole family to see here in the Pacific Northwest. From vibrant reds and oranges found on deciduous trees and shrubs to brilliant golds and yellows found on grasses, meadows, and even still-in-bloom dahlias, the Evergreen State is blazing with fall colors. To help you find these stunning colors of the season, we've put together a list of fall foliage hot spots in and around the Seattle area as well as a few day and weekend trip destinations worthy of some oohs and ahhs.
Greater Seattle Area
Bellevue Botanical Gardens
A wonderful gem located right in downtown Bellevue, with 53 acres of display gardens, meadows, wetlands and woodlands. The 1/3-mile Lost Meadow loop trail offers picturesque fall color; be sure to also stroll through the Dahlia Garden as flowers should be in full bloom through mid-November (or the first frost). The Botanical Gardens are free and open from dawn to dusk every day.
12001 Main Street
Bellevue, Wa 98005
Discovery Park
Seattle's largest park takes up 534 acres on Magnolia Bluff, including colorful wooded areas, meadows, sand dunes and dramatic cliffs (in other words: plenty of photo opps with the kiddos!). With 11 miles of trails, a children's playground and plenty of picnic tables, there's something here for everyone.
3801 Discovery Park Boulevard
Seattle, Wa 98199
Kubota Garden
Stroller friendly and serene, Kubota Garden in south Seattle is a hidden gem within the city. Kids will love seeing the waterfall and the fish pond, and you'll appreciate the stunning array of Japanese maples. The Garden is free to visitors and public tours are available every Saturday through October at 10:00 am.
9817 55th Avenue South
Seattle, Wa 98118
Union Bay Natural Area
With 74 acres and four miles of shoreline along Lake Washington, the Union Bay Natural Area is a public wildlife area just a stone's throw away from the shopping mecca of University Village. Gorgeous grasslands and wetlands combined with the backdrops of Husky Stadium, Lake Washington and Mount Rainier add to the diverse fall scenery. A popular bird watching destination, bring the binoculars and either a heavy duty jogging stroller or a backpack for the wee ones, as the gravel trails tend to get muddy this time of year. Plenty of parking is available at the adjacent Center for Urban Horticulture.
3501 NE 41st Street
Seattle, Wa 98105
Washington Arboretum
First stop: The Graham Visitors Center (where you can treat the kids to Adventure Packs ($7 for two hours) backpacks supplied with field guides, scavenger hunts, magnifying lenses and activity ideas for children in grades K – 6. Stroll through Azalea Way (.75 miles) past the Woodland Garden, Japanese Maples and Asiatic Maples and end up at the Japanese Gardens at the south end (which has an entrance fee of $4-$6; kids 5 and under are free).
2300 Arboretum Drive East
Seattle, Wa 98112
Lincoln Park
With 4.6 miles of walking paths and a mile of seawalled rocky beaches, you'll find plenty of trees blazing with orange, red and yellow leaves along the paths and mixed in with the kelp on the beach. Bring the jogging stroller so you can take the trails through the grassy forests and meadows, along the bluffs, and down to the beach. With five picnic shelters, two playgrounds, and acres of playfields, this West Seattle gem is a popular spot for families and a great place to spend an autumn day.
8011 Fauntleroy Way SW
Seattle, Wa 98136
Woodland Park
Yes, of course the zoo is here, but did you also know that Woodland Park continues on the east side of Aurora down to the south end of Greenlake? The best fall color can be found near the many picnic areas and the large, wooded dog off-leash area.
1000 North 50th Street
Seattle, Wa 98103
Day and Weekend Trips
Because color changes will vary depending on when and where you go, call the Washington State Fall Foliage Hotline at 1-800-354-4595 for the most up-to-date information.
With the Leavenworth Oktoberfest on the horizon (October 4-5, 11-12 & 18-19), this may be a great excuse for a weekend trip. The scenic drive alone via Highway #2 or Highway #97 will be loaded with vibrant fall colors. Book at night or two at Sleeping Lady Mountain Resort and take the kids on a horse drawn carriage through town, tour the Leavenworth Fish Hatchery and visit local fruit stands and the farmers market.
Mount Baker Byway
Beginning just west of Bellingham and winding up to the breathtaking Artist Point, the Mount Baker Byway is the only road to Mount Baker, a destination in and of itself, offering adventure for the kids along the way. Make sure you've got plenty of room on your camera's memory card.
Mount Rainier
If it's been awhile since your last trip to Mount Rainier, fall is a wonderful time to go. Crowds and bugs aren't as plentiful and the landscape never disappoints. A number of suggested day trip itineraries for families are available online, or you can check out park service recommended hikes.
Where is your favorite place to take in the fall colors in Seattle? Let us know in a comment below.

Whether you are at the game or at home, many Eagles fans have their own routine when it comes to watching the game.
Barry and Dawn Vagnoni were thinking about moving to Florida seven years ago when Barry retired. But Barry convinced dawn to do something else.
Instead of moving south, the Vagnoni's decided to build what they call the Ultimate Eagles Locker Room."
The result? A 2,000-square-foot addition that has everything an Eagles fan could want.
Each week, Barry and his wife host hundreds of their family and friends to watch the Eagles games inside their locker room.
Barry gave us a little tour.
Sunday morning on "Eagles Game Day Live," FOX 29's Kacie McDonnell will show you much more of their Eagles locker room.
And wait to you see which part of the room is dedicated to the Dallas Cowboys.
That's Sunday on "Eagles Game Day Live" starting at 11 a.m. on FOX 29.
The rest of our lineup for you on Sunday includes FOX NFL Sunday at noon and the Eagles versus the Cowboys at 1 p.m. We will wrap up the game with our FOX 29 post-game report at 4:30 p.m.

TORONTO — Two men face a bail hearing Tuesday after their arrest on charges of plotting a terrorist attack against a Canadian passenger train with support from al-Qaida elements in Iran, authorities said. The case has raised questions about Shiite-led Iran's murky relationship with the predominantly Sunni Arab terrorist network.
Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, and Raed Jaser, 35, had "direction and guidance" from al-Qaida members in Iran, though there was no reason to think the planned attacks were state-sponsored, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Assistant Commissioner James Malizia said Monday. Police said the men did not get financial support from al-Qaida, but declined to provide more details.
"This is the first known al-Qaida planned attack that we've experienced in Canada," Superintendent Doug Best told a news conference. Officials in Washington and Toronto said it had no connections to last week's bombings at the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Iran's foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast told reporters on Tuesday there is no evidence of any Iranian involvement and groups such as al-Qaida have "no compatibility with Iran in both political and ideological fields."
"We oppose any terrorist and violent action that would jeopardize lives of innocent people," he said.
Mehmanparast called the Canadian claims part of hostile policies against Tehran, and accused Canada of indirectly aiding al-Qaida by joining Western support for Syrian rebels. Some Islamic militant factions, claiming allegiance to al-Qaida, have joined forces seeking to topple the regime of Bashar Assad, one of Iran's main allies in the region.
Charges against the two men include conspiring to carry out an attack and murder people in association with a terrorist group. Police said the men are not Canadian citizens and had been in Canada a "significant amount of time," but declined to say where they were from or why they were in the country.

OAKLAND — Every basketball fan in the country and around the globe saw the potential of the Golden State Warriors last season when Stephen Curry stayed healthy and got hot in the playoffs.
One swish after another, Curry wowed the gold-shirt wearing crowds that packed Oracle Arena and turned games into must-see TV. The performances transformed the franchise from lovable losers with a faithful following to an up-and-coming team that could contend for a Western Conference title — and maybe more.
"I think we understand the position we're in," Curry said. "We played well for a year. That's awesome. But we have to capitalize on that momentum."
Few expected the Warriors, who had made the playoffs just once since 1994, to make the postseason. Even fewer predicted they'd beat Denver — which won a franchise-record 57 games — in the first round. And almost nobody thought they'd seriously challenge the San Antonio Spurs before losing in six games in the second round.
Winning would surprise nobody now.
Golden State returns all five starters — Curry, Klay Thompson, Harrison Barnes, David Lee and Andrew Bogut — from a team that finished 47-35 to earn the Western Conference's sixth playoff seed. The Warriors also added All-Star swingman Andre Iguodala, who left Denver to sign a four-year, $48 million deal.
"There's no secret, we're a good basketball team. I'm not going to sit here and lie. We're a good basketball team," said Warriors coach Mark Jackson, who's entering his third season. "We've come a long way. But now is the next step. It's about building chemistry and looking forward to what lies ahead. We're not satisfied with last year. That's old news. And we're not going to live on old news. We're looking to build something right now."

For a long time people that know me have been telling me they think I may suffer from depression and/or anxiety. So much so that I began to believe it. I am still somewhat open to the possibility, but my position on the matter is: so what? I'm not hurting anyone. I'm certainly not going to alter my body chemistry just because it doesn't match what is "normal". Where would evolution have gone if all species could change themselves back to "normal"?
Last night I read this article about shyness, introversion, and social anxiety. It confirmed many of my thoughts on the matter, and got me to research introversion more. Before, I had been aware of the general idea of introversion/extroversion (never studied psychology that much), but I did not know that it could be such a specific and pervasive behavioral trait. After much reading I found that on the introvert/extrovert scale, I'm about as introverted as you could possibly get.
Anyway, in the article the author references Winifred Gallagher: "The glory of the disposition that stops to consider stimuli rather than rushing to engage with them is its long association with intellectual and artistic achievement." It got me thinking about religion. Are introverts more likely to analyze the inconsistencies and problems with religion before (or even after) committing to one? How many atheists are introverts?
So, do you consider yourself more introverted than extroverted? A poll would be awesome, but I don't see an option to add one.
Views: 1976
Apparently, it's "in vogue". ;)
I choose to dissent.
I used to be shy when I was a boy, but I overcompensated by becoming a loud, often obnoxious and drunken asshole.
Being an introvert was always something I really didn't know how to feel about, and I felt like it held me back from meaningful social interactions with people. I'm an easy to talk to person, but I just always felt like there was just some social gene I didn't have... until I read this http://jerrybrito.org/post/6114304704/top-ten-myths-about-introverts
It was a great article and really helped me feel better about myself, even if it is a bit general.

Danville's right wing loonies on parade again.
on Jul 19, 2013 at 9:03 am
@Huh?: Your willingness to fall into ABAG's/MTC's trap by labeling all those that would challenge Plan Bay Area as "loonies" displays your own looniness.
Local control, which Plan Bay Area seeks to eradicate, is what gives us some semblance of influence over our quality of life. When the lot next to yours is redesignated pursuant to Plan Bay Area for a multi-story apartment tower looming over your home, perhaps you will no longer view ABAG/MTC as benevolent "big brothers" and those that challenge them as "loonies".
Many thanks to all those that attended the rigged ABAG/MTC meeting last night!
on Jul 19, 2013 at 10:13 am
The meeting last night was rigged. The decisions were already made. There were over 400+ people in attendance and the overwhelming majority were opposed to the plan. The unelected regionalists are steamrolling this through. Thank you to Heather Gass and others who at least have the guts to stand up to these government hacks.
This plan will destroy small towns like Danville.

Authorities arrested six local men, including one Peabody resident, Friday morning in several drug raids across the North Shore.
One of the men was also identified as the owner of Bangkok Paradise in Salem.
Essex Country District Attorney's office spokeswoman Carrie Kimball-Monahan said warrants were executed at 10 different locations in Lynn, Peabody, Salem and Danvers and police also seized thousands of oxycodone pills along with more than $50,000 in cash and a gun.
She said the arrests were the result of a "long-term, multi-agency drug investigation." The agencies involved were DA's Drug Task Force, state police, Drug Enforcement Agency, Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms and Peabody, Lynn, Salem and Danvers police.
The following men were arrested and scheduled for arraignment in Peabody and Salem district courts Friday morning:
- Celton Pelaez, 36, of 84 Aborn St., Peabody, was charged with trafficking oxycodone.
- Jesus Franco, 42, of 34 Perkins St., Salem, (owner of Bangkok Paradise) was charged with trafficking oxycodone.
- Jason Gentry, 32, of 5 Station Rd., Salem, was charged with possession with intent to distribute oxycodone.
- David Soucy, 35, of 7 Garden St., Danvers, was charged with trafficking oxycodone.
- Henry Hernandez, 36, of 32 Columbia Ave., Lynn, was charged with trafficking oxycodone.
- Joel Gonzalez, 32, of 44 Lawrence Rd., Lynn, was charged with the sale of a firearm.

Windows Phone: A GPS-enabled Phone App in 5 minutes!
In fact, I was teaching a weekend crash course on Windows Phone at Brigham Young University a few weeks back. Here's a room of 100 smart, young developers following along with their laptops and Visual Studio. In a matter of hours (literally) – they had 5 sample Windows Phone applications running in their environments. Presto!
How many apps can other platforms build in a single day? Aw, snap! How many apps can other platforms build in 5 minutes? I am not kidding when I say Windows Phone development is rapid. Windows Phone developers are happy developers. Not only do they get to use Visual Studio (game changer), but the framework, Silverlight, and the OS provide them many of the tools other platforms make them jump hoops for.
In this article we will show how to use the GeoCoordinateWatcher. To be clear, I do not discuss how to use the native Bing Map control, but I do discuss it in detail in this article.
Let Build It!
Before we built it, I wanted to point out that using the GeoCoordinateWatcher means that you will be using the Location Services API in the Windows Phone. Whenever you use the Location Services API, you must also include in your application a Privacy Policy – without it, your application will not be certified for the Marketplace. I walk through how to create a Privacy Policy in this article.
In this video, I build a simple GPS-enabled application. I demonstrate that you can put anything in the Content property of a Pushpin including a button or anything (including items that are data bound). But I should also mention that you can re-skin the whole Pushpin by simply setting its Template property. This allows you to put custom items on the map.
Final note: In the sample the nag screen on the
map appears. This will appear until you put in your developer
credentials – get them from the Bing app center. Read more about
implementing the map in this article.
In all reality, this map is cute but useless. These techniques and samples need you, the developer. They need not only your excellent development talent, but also your creativity and application ideas. Once you have the creative juices stirring, isn't it nice to know that Windows Phone is stuffed with features, tools, and controls that can realize your dreams? I don't want to overstate it, but it's pretty awesome.
Best of luck!

Great video. However; I've found that when I implemented the GeoCoordinateWatcher for my own application I noticed that the Speed property on GeoCoordinate always returns 0 when running in the emulator which made my application difficult to debug. Better yet, once on the device once you moved (got OnPositionChanged to fire) and then became completely stopped (again after moving) the GeoLocationWatcher fails to publish the OnPositionChanged event. Which might fail to update the UI with the current speed of zero.

This was the perfect wedding band to stack on top of my engagement band. On it's own it is very thin, but it is perfect for what I wanted as a stacking ring to add a pop of color to my hand.

I adore this little ring. It is small n thin but that's why I love it. It looks fantastic next to my thin banded engagement ring. (Which was also purchased from blue nile) It brings a brilliant flash of color without over powering my engagement ring. Its a perfect compliment.

Always hard to tell gauge this sort of thing online but the ring was a bit thinner than I expected. My wife loves the ring though. Happy wife, happy life!
