Large diameter butterfly valves to 72''''
February 26, 2004
Heavy-duty, large diameter, resilient-seated butterfly valves are rated at 75 and 150 psi and available in 60'''', 66'''' and 72'''' sizes. Valves have high Cv ratings, minimum parts exposed to the line media, excellent reliability and a proven record of long service. Valve bodies are drilled to be compatible with ANSI 125/150 or other International flange standards. The valves may be bolted to allow downstream flange removal or cross-bolted for maximum resistance to stresses.

The food was outstanding, as was the service through out the ship, all the staff was very pleasant and helpful. We ate in all the dinning rooms, the Polo Grill was our favorite, the Maine Lobster was outstanding. We liked not having assigned tables, so we could have dinner with new friends as we saw fit.
We were a bit taken back by all the wheelchairs, walkers and canes in use by the passengers, I thought we were on a Hospital ship, the youngest person we saw was about 35 or 40, the average age was about 80, I think.
The shore trips booked through the ship were very expensive, way overpriced, but you were kind of stuck if you were late and not using their tour you could get left at the pier. Going through the Panama Canal was the big reason we took this trip.
All in all it was a good cruise, food, staff, service was superb. We do like cruising on a small ship, 680 passengers is about right, there is not a big hassle to get off and on the ship in the ports and we only had to use the small boats just once.
Would we cruise with Oceania again, yes, if they were going where we wanted to go, but we are not big cruisers.

Oxford, MS (Sports Network) - Dee Bost led all scorers with 25 points and dished out six assists, as Mississippi State held on for a 80-75 win over 14th-ranked Ole Miss in the SEC opener for both teams at Tad Smith Coliseum.
Ravern Johnson donated 15 points and Kodi Augustus had 13 points to go along with 12 rebounds for Mississippi State (13-2, 1-0), which had a nine-game win streak snapped with a heart-breaking 55-52 loss at Western Kentucky on Monday. Barry Stewart made 3-of-6 from three-point range and ended with 11 points, while Jarvis Varnado had nine points, 12 boards and six blocked shots.
Chris Warren had 15 points and Zach Graham went for 14 points, seven rebounds and four steals for Ole Miss (12-3, 0-1 SEC), which demolished UCF 84-56 on Tuesday. Terrance Henry finished with 12 points and six boards for the Rebels, who have still won seven of nine overall.
Ole Miss took a 42-37 edge into the second half and continued to hold the lead for the first 10 minutes. The Bulldogs were able to chip away at the deficit and then pull even at 59-all with just over nine minutes left after a Varnado tip-in.
The game then went back-and-forth before MSU was able to gain control of the contest. Up 69-65 with three minutes to play, Johnson drilled a three a short time later for a seven-point MSU cushion.
In the last half minute and the Bulldogs ahead 75-72, Varnado blocked a Terrico White jumper and Mississippi State held on in the final seconds.
Mississippi State set the pace in the early going, jumping out to a 20-8 lead after Stewart drained a three-pointer nearly 6 1/2 minutes into the contest.
However, the Rebels turned things around with a 19-5 run over the next several minutes and Eniel Polynice's layup put Ole Miss up 27-25 with a shade under six minutes left.
A Johnson three-ball gave MSU a brief lead on its next trip before Graham answered with a triple, putting Ole Miss back in front as the Rebels took a 42-37 lead into the break.
In a series that began way back in 1914, Mississippi State now owns a 135-105 advantage...White ended with nine points.

OK, so here we go with Tuesday's meals. Please keep in mind that my baby still gets a significant portion of her daily calories from breastmilk.
Breakfast: Green beans mixed with avocado, plus sweet potato.
Lunch: We were out running errands, so we stopped by Whole Foods for lunch. I made a salad and grabbed a Happy Baby banana/beet/blueberry pouch for my side kick. Unfortunately, when I twisted off the top of the pouch it was all crusty! Yuck! I'm sure it was probably fine/safe, but I didn't want to take chances. Instead, I shared some of the shredded chicken on my salad with her (we're not doing baby led weaning, but lately I've been feeding her meat and chicken by hand or mixing tiny pieces in with her blended food).
|Salad for me, fruit and beets for baby.
Dinner: This is one of the reasons I make baby food in batches. I did not cook on Tuesday night. I took some grass-fed ground beef out of the freezer, but never got around to doing anything with it. Luckily, we had a carrot/squash mixture in the freezer and some leftover chicken in the fridge. She loved it, and ate two huge servings! Tonight (Wednesday) was even more exciting -- burgers and roasted cauliflower. Yum!
|Carrots, squash and chicken. Mmmm.

As Ohioans get ready to drive in the first possible winter storm this season,
the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) warns motorists in Ice and
Snow, Take It Slow, especially on interstates and state-maintained highways
where speeds are faster and traffic volumes are higher.
Research shows by
the time the first winter storm hits, most motorists have forgotten their safe
winter driving skills.
"Because of last
year's mild winter, many of Ohio's motorists haven't driven in significant ice
and snow in about 20 months," said ODOT Director Jerry Wray.
Drivers can also
stay safe – whether it's the first storm or last – by following these tips:
last year's winter season, there were 16,167 winter-related crashes on Ohio's
roadways. Ice & snow related fatalities on ODOT-maintained roads decreased
by nearly 20 percent - from 21 to 17.

Firefighter Kaim Rosado, New London (Conn.) Fire Department
It's not every day firefighters find themselves clinging to bridges 150 feet above an icy river on a cold December morning, fighting with a person who is hell bent on plunging to an almost certain death.
It's not every day firefighters find themselves clinging to bridges 150 feet above an icy river on a cold December morning, fighting with a person who is hell bent on plunging to an almost certain death.
It's not every day firefighters get the chance to intervene and save someone in an up close and personal way. But then again, not everybody is Kaim Rosado, an eight-year career firefighter with the New London (Conn.) Fire Department.
For his efforts in saving the life of a suicidal man by grabbing him and helping to pull him to safety, Rosado has been honored by Firehouse Magazine as recipient of a 2009 Heroism & Community Service Award.
Dec. 12, 2009 was a Saturday. At about 7:18 a.m., Rosado and two other firefighters in his engine company were summoned to assist the police with a young man threatening to jump off the Gold Star Memorial Bridge on Interstate 95, spanning the Thames River.
Rosado said a man in his 20s was apparently distraught and trying to get the attention of a young woman who was the object of his affection. To achieve that, the man scaled a 10-foot retaining fence on the bridge and perched himself on a six-inch ledge above the river, unfettered and threatening to jump from the highest point on the structure.
"It was really cold that day," Rosado said of the morning that saw temperatures in the 20s. "We parked on the bridge and waited."
A half hour passed and Rosado said the officer on his truck, a lieutenant, approached the police officers on the scene. He and another firefighter followed suit.
The police were negotiating with the man and the firefighters were told it shouldn't be too much longer before the man would abandon his threat and climb back over the fence.
They were wrong.
"As we started back to the truck, we heard a scuffle and saw one of the officers grabbing the man through the fence," Rosado said. "We figured we had to do something."
Rosado went back to the engine and grabbed a 14-foot ladder, scaled it and came down on the other side of the fence where the man was. Rosado tied a rope around himself for fall protection and the other firefighters and the officers cinched it to the fence.
Rosado grabbed the man's collar and held on, while the other firefighters and officers grabbed through the aluminum rails of the fence, desperately trying to prevent the man from falling or jumping.
"He did not want us to hold him and he was fighting us the whole time," Rosado said.
Attempts to handcuff the man to the fence failed, as did other attempts to securely tether him with webbing.
At one point during the fracas, an officer got a rope around the man's leg which prevented him from falling.
"He was hanging upside down by the rope around his leg for a while, but he got sick of that and pulled himself back up on the ledge," Rosado said.
While Rosado and the officers continued to wrestle with the man, the lieutenant of the crew began cutting the fence to gain access to the man, and to hopefully pull him back to safety on the deck of the bridge. He was not cooperating enough to be brought back over the top of the fence, so they knew they'd have to find another way to get him to safety.
Every attempt the responders made to secure the man was thwarted as he tried to untie every rope or webbing as quickly as it was placed.
"We were fighting with him for about 20 minutes at least," Rosado said.
Toward the end of the skirmish, Rosado said the man let go of his grip on the fence and Rosado and the two other firefighters and four law enforcement officers capitalized on his defensive move. Rosado got rescue webbing that he kept in his bunker coat around the man's wrist, and that provided another point from which the rescuers could pull the man to safety.
The situation ended when the police and firefighters swung the man around and pulled him through the hole in the fence created by bolt cutters.

ARLINGTON – Arlington police need help identifying a man who has robbed seven businesses since June, three of which occurred in Arlington.
Department spokeswoman Tiara Richard said the man typically enters a pizza restaurant or a cell phone store between 6 p.m. and 10 p.m. and robs it. He's used a gun in all the robberies in Arlington. The others happened in Fort Worth, Irving and Grand Prairie.
He's also been spotted fleeing the scene in a white Nissan four door car with tinted windows.
The latest robbery occurred on Sept. 29. The man robbed a Metro PCS in Arlington by pulling out a gun and demanding money from the cashier. You can watch that video here; the actual robbery happens at the 14 minute mark.
No one has been injured during the robberies, nor have any customers been robbed, Richard said.
"The Arlington Police Department is working closely with the other agencies that have incidents similar to our three robberies and are believed to have been committed by the same suspect," Richard wrote in an email.

Track's Andrea Pressley, Monique Tubbs Shine on Final Day at FSU Twilight
May 10, 2003
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Jacksonville University junior Andrea Pressley (Upper Marlboro, Md.) turned in a gutsy performance on the final day at the FSU Twilight as she came from behind to win the heptathlon Saturday at the Mike Long Track Complex on the Florida St. campus in Tallahassee, Fla. Junior Monique Tubbs (Boston, Mass.) won the 100-meter dash for the second time in as many weeks, while junior Safiya Davy (Mitchellville, Md.) finished third in the 100-meter hurdles.
Pressley, competing in multiple events for the first time in three weeks since the A-Sun Championships, turned in two clutch performances to win the javelin and the 800 to finish first with 5,213 points, which is the 10th-best performance in the heptathlon in the nation this season and an NCAA Regional provisional mark. On Friday, Pressley won the shot put, but entered Saturday's events in third place.
Tubbs, who won the 100-meter dash last week at the Florida Track and Field Classic, but due to a timing malfunction her winning time was unknown, finished with a time of 11.53 to win her fourth 100-meter dash this season, in addition to achieving an NCAA Regional qualifying time. Davy placed third in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 13.61, which also was an NCAA Regional qualifying time. Kisha Jett, who was running unattached, won the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 13.16.
JU returns to action next weekend in its final meet of the season before the NCAA Regional Meet at the Georgia Tech Last Chance Invitational on May 17 in Atlanta, Ga.

Ultimate Survival Blast Match Fire Starter
If you like nature and the outdoors, you should probably have one of these fire starters. It is the one used by those who go out facing extreme conditions. The Ultimate Survival Blast Match Fire Starter is a flint designed for all-weather conditions and performs great most environments, whether marine, arctic, desert or jungle. It produces a spark that is three times the heat of a regular match. You can light anything or man-made fire starting tinder that a match can start. It was initially designed for the Air Force fighter pilots in case they were shot down in harsh environments, they would have to be able to start a fire with one hand in case of injury. This flint will not run out of fuel, and will always light in wind, rain and snow. To prevent accidental ignition, the Ultimate Survival Blast Match Fire Starter s was especially designed in a way where it requires for you to press to thumb button to start the striker mechanism. And the flint rotates for even wearing and a carbide striker is set at a perfect angle for maximum sparking. The Blast Match will last a thousand strikes.

Beyond going overseas, Paul has even lived abroad for several years and that in many of war-torn and impoverishe nations, where he has provided hope and leadership training.
During the first of his five tours throughout war-torn Africa, Paul slept in a tent for two months in areas so remote villagers had never before seen a white man. Little children freaked out at first, screamed, and ran thinking Paul was a ghost. Others swarmed around him in astonishment saying, "Mzungoo" (which is to say "white man").
Experiences throughout the world like these have shaped and made Paul into the man and diversity speaker, motivational speaker and life-changing speaker he is today. The content of the talks and lectures Paul delivers is enriching and provides life-changing illumination for personal transformation. The unusual depth comes from his global experiences, brushes with death and close interactions from people of all walks of life in innumerable circumstances within life's laboratory abroad on foreign soil.
As a former 11th and 12th grade English teacher to international students in a heavily diverse and D grade public high school, Paul understands diversity and what college orientation directors, academic deans, and student advisors need to know to facilitate success for students transitioning from high school to college. Paul's college talks therefore provide essential educational leadership training for University administrators and academic advisors.

As a globe trekker and former English teacher to international students, many of whom are endeavoring to attend American colleges and Universities, Paul is well acquainted with global student experiences and challenges.

A motivational keynote or heartfelt talk with Paul is always high energy, uplifting, and engaging. Paul likes to interact with his audience and role-play using real life scenarios. Voted the funniest in his high-school class, you can be sure a corporate or college talk with Paul is going to be full of fun and humor. With Paul every college talk is going to be fun, witty, and excitingly engaging so as to be interactive and challenge any erroneous presumptions and misnomers students may hold to until they awaken further and become more self-aware.
A motivational speaker, life-changing speaker and diversity speaker who upholds the integrity of every individual, Paul respectfully and playfully interacts with his audience to cause them to think and experience a paradigm shift when needed. The son of an alcoholic and drug addict, Paul knows how to talk straight to students and adults of all ages to warn them of the dangers of substance abuse. Paul's mom died as the result of an 18 year-old drunk driver on the streets at 2:00AM. Moreover Paul himself was nearly killed years later by a drunk driver in July 2008 when he was hit just before 5:00PM on a Tuesday afternoon in route to Stetson University. The drunk driver hit Paul from behind, spinning his car around, and thereafter being drunk and not stopping hit Paul's car a second time completely totaling Paul's vehicle. Upon arriving at the scene of the accident police immediately arrested the two-time DUI female offender. As for Paul, by God's grace and hand of protection, he lived to tell about the dangers of drunk driving.
What makes every corporate and college talk special with Paul is his speaking style is heartfelt, passionate, purposeful, and powerful. A college talk with Paul is both emotional and always memorable. Paul often gets invited back year after year to many colleges and countries where he has previously given a talk.
As Paul learned in Indonesia (the world's largest Muslim populace and archipelago full of countless islands with amazing surf), as a motivational speaker and keynote speaker it is important to always be prepared to give an encouraging and uplifting word anytime and anywhere when called upon to speak. The Indonesians often invited Paul to speak at their birthday parties. Indonesians genuinely and expectantly want to hear a word of encouragement and inspiration on their birthday. Paul therefore would talk for 15 to 20 minutes, bless the birthday girl or boy, and proceed to enjoy the party.
Indonesians really know how to throw a birthday party! Whenever Paul gave a talk at a birthday party in Indonesia, there were usually about 75 people or more present to hear the motivational speaker.
That being said, although Paul is a worldwide motivational speaker and keynote speaker he humble and always available to talk to any size crowd (informal or formal), anywhere in the earth that you can bring together and creatively organize an event with eager people.
If you have a topic you would like to have a life-changing speaker, motivational speaker or keynote speaker publicly address and talk about; Paul is ready and able to provide life-changing messages upon request. Unlike most motivational speakers or keynote speakers who can sometimes get a big head, Paul remains cooperative and willing to be flexible so as to create a cohesive message in line with your desirable topic (or find an associate speaker of equal caliber from his roster of professional motivational speakers) to ensure you extraordinary success and the greatest results.
Do not worry about a thing when you need a motivational speaker, diversity speaker or life-changing speaker in your country or city. Paul can creatively work with any budget. Simply contact Paul for life-changing corporate and college talks and together you can work out the details. Paul desires to make you look great and win the respect of your peers, supervisors and community leaders. Therefore bringing in a motivational speaker such as Paul is a blessing not a burden.

Keeping your personal information away from identity thieves
Updated: Saturday, August 3 2013, 01:51 PM CDT
How do identity thieves get their hands on your information?
Channel three's Lena Deflores has the answer from a former thief, who shares how she did it.
You probably go the extra step to protect your information in your wallet and online but a former con artist says where you're most vulnerable is in your front yard.
"I had a problem with drugs and as my addiction grew as my money and necessity grew. I heard about people stealing mail and making counterfeit checks."
Mary says she would print fake checks and ID cards to match.
All with stolen account information.
And she says, getting that information was easy.
"Through stealing mail, through bank dumpsters, through garbage behind car loan places. Places like that may have your information and then throw it away."
She would cash anywhere between $500 dollars to 2-thousand dollars a day in counterfeit checks.
In all, she scammed 250 victims out of nearly $50-thousand dollars.
"We said we would get to a certain amount of money and we would stop. But it never seemed we got to that, if we got there, we needed more. It's an illusion."
Mary and her husband were arrested. She spent more than two years in jail and says she now she wants to help you protect yourself.
"I want to tell you - that is the reason I wanted to do this - is because it was so easy."
"They were upset by the monetary loss but moreover, about their good name being trashed. It takes a significant amount of time and energy to get your name cleared."
Mary says you should be mindful when it comes to your mailbox.
"If you're going to be out of town, don't let your mail pile up."
Also, ask questions.
"If you use a bank, make sure they shred your information. Any business that is going to take your personal information ask them what are you going to dispose my information?"
With your consumer alert, Lena Deflores, Channel Three News.

Huguenot Bridge closing overnight
At 10 p.m. tonight the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) will close the existing Huguenot Bridge to traffic to allow crews to move barriers into position and install pavement markings at the approaches to the new bridge. VDOT expects preparations to be completed and traffic shifted to the new bridge by 10 a.m. Saturday, June 30, weather permitting.
During the overnight closure, drivers are encouraged to use the following alternate routes:
• Northbound Huguenot Road - Chippenham Parkway (Route 150) north over the Willey Bridge to River Road east to Huguenot Road, or use Powhite Parkway (toll) east into Richmond
• Southbound Huguenot Road – River Road west to Chippenham Parkway (Route 150) south to Huguenot Road
This milestone marks the halfway point for the $54.5 million bridge construction project, with approximately one year remaining until the wider and more bike/pedestrian-friendly bridge is complete.
"The 62-year-old bridge is being replaced with a new structure, providing a critical transportation link to the region," said Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell. "Taking traffic off the old bridge and onto the new one means people will have a safer and more reliable way to reach their destination."
The existing traffic pattern of one travel lane in each direction with no shoulders will remain in place until the second half of the new bridge is ready to receive traffic next summer. In addition, the sidewalk on the new bridge will be closed until approach work on the north end is completed in spring 2013.
After VDOT shifts traffic from the existing Huguenot Memorial Bridge to the first half of the new bridge on Saturday, the public will have the opportunity to walk, bike or picnic on the old bridge Sunday, July 1 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. without disruption from vehicles. Crews will begin demolition of the 62-year-old bridge the following week to make way for the remaining half of the new bridge.
During the event, Huguenot Road traffic will continue to use the new bridge to cross the river. In order to safely access the old bridge, event participants will enter by foot or bike via the closed ramp from Riverside Drive on the south end of the bridge. Parking will be available along Riverside Drive.
Ice chests and folding chairs will be permitted on the bridge. Glass containers and alcohol will not be permitted.
VDOT expects the second half of the new bridge to be completed and open to all travelers in summer 2013 with final project completion in October 2013. Once complete, the new structure will have one 12-foot travel lane and one 10-foot shoulder in each direction. The wider shoulder will function as both an emergency breakdown lane and an area for cyclists to safely use the bridge. In addition, there will be a 5-foot wide sidewalk on each side for pedestrians.
Efforts to build a new bridge to replace the aging Huguenot Memorial Bridge began in October 2010. The Huguenot Bridge spans the James River and connects the city of Richmond to the south and Henrico County to the north via Huguenot Road. Approximately 25,000 vehicles cross the bridge each day.

'Planes' sequel crashes
'Fire and Rescue' proves too predictable, boring
Planes: Fire and Rescue opens with a dedication to the hero firefighters of the world. It's an admirable notion, and it makes sense, given that this is a film about planes that fight fires.
But here it might be a little out of place, as Planes: Fire and Rescue has a few things on its mind besides supporting the men and women who routinely throw themselves into burning buildings.
Like money. Lots and lots of money – into the 11-figures-and-counting range. In case you weren't aware, 2006's Cars was the biggest moneymaker Disney had in decades – not because of how much green the film printed at the box office, but because a combination of toys, games and snack foods stamped with the Cars seal of approval routinely pulls in tens of billions of dollars per year. > Read more.

Great Pet Food Storage Container Sleek. Fits in well w/ stainless steel kitchen appliances. Quality item. November 2, 2013
Just What I Needed I've been using my new Simplehuman airtight storage bin for over a week now and I love it! No more dealing with big dog food bags that I have to hide away somewhere. The model is very sleek so it fits nicely anywhere you might want to place it...and looks great! I love the "finger print proof" stainless steel too. The large scoop inside sits in the lid via a magnet. Highly recommend this product if you are looking to keep your dog's food fresh and streamline the "feeding" process. :-). I should have gotten this years ago! February 6, 2013
Wonderful storage bin I purchased this bin to put my dry dog food in and was VERY satisfied when I received it. It is very stylish and fits into my kitchen as a great addition. It has a good seal and will be excellent to store my dog food in to keep it fresh. August 7, 2013
Excellent Purchase!!! I am thoroughly satisfied with our new "AIrtight Pet Food Storage BIn." We have 2 large dogs and it's wonderful to have this "beauthiful" bin in our kitchen & it matches everything wonderfully. Well worth the money - very sturdy & good looking!!! February 12, 2012
dog food canister Excellent product thus far after searching for 2 years. product appears to deliver, however, long term has yet to be determined. Food mites and moisture is my main concern which is #1 cause of pet's health to fail. January 20, 2012

Next Monday the Fox network presents a new television show called K-Ville. Set in post-Katrina
Since at least the 1950s, and shows like Dragnet,
Audiences could no longer believe the old clean-cut images of cops – there were too many front-page stories of police violence and corruption – but it was still necessary to maintain the public perception that cops are necessary. The new generation of cops on film and TV – later refined and popularized by stars from Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon to Dennis Frantz in NYPD Blue – was that of a troubled, violent, flawed, but ultimately sympathetic hero. Yes, they broke the rules, but ultimately the rules are the problem. These cops would torture people based on a hunch – but, they were always right. The person they tortured would always end up being guilty, and they would always get information from torturing them that they would not have gotten otherwise.ÂÂ
This justification was developed in
Courage To Burn
Into this archetype comes the Fox cop drama K-Ville. The publicity material for the new show explains, "Two years after Katrina, the city is still in chaosÂ…many cops have quit, and the jails, police stations and crime labs still haven't been properly rebuilt. But the cops who remain have courage to burn and a passion to reclaim and rebuild their city."ÂÂ
Like all
A Good Cop
Anthony Anderson stars as Marlin Boulet, a Black New Orleans cop who has seen his city devastated, who is fighting, as a homeowner, for his ninth ward neighborhood to return, while fighting as a cop against a sea of crime.
Like Law and Order, the show (at least in the first episode) dodges much of the racial politics of policing by having the criminals be mostly wealthy and white, while the police are racially diverse. Like many of these TV shows, there is an attempt to please as wide an audience as possible – the shows bring in conservatives with the tough on crime rhetoric, but bring in liberals by having the villains be corporate criminals. K-Ville even has one white villain say, "That storm wasn't a disaster…that storm was a cleansing," a moment that indicts white racism in the cleansing of the city, and not something that you would expect from Fox. In fact, despite being skeptical about
Although the show gets much wrong about how race, class and power work in
In the end, however, these accuracies only help to convey the deeper, and more problematic, purpose of the show – a portrayal of New Orleans police as an essential thin blue line of protection in an outlaw city. The show brings up the horror of prisoners abandoned in Orleans Parish Prison, but only to reinforce an eventual rescue by the New Orleans police (if K-Ville had the courage to tell the true story of what prisoners went through in those days after the storm, it would be a very different show). The show brings up white racism, but only as an exception, not as a system of power that has displaced almost half of the Black population of the city. In short, the show gets some of the problems right, but it gets the answer deeply wrong.
Demonized and Policed
The reality is that the police, glamorized on K-Ville, are a part of the disaster the people of New Orleans have faced, not part of the solution. In the months after Katrina, while New Orleanians wanted to return and rebuild their city, they got "security" instead. Hundreds of National Guard troops, as well as police forces from across the U.S. and private security forces including Blackwater, Wackenhut and an Israeli company called Instinctive Shooting International began patrolling the nearly empty city.
As has been widely reported, the town of Gretna, across the Mississippi from New Orleans and part of Jefferson Parish, stationed officers on the bridge leading out of New Orleans blocking the main escape route for the tens of thousands suffering in the Superdome, Convention Center, and throughout the city.
From the initial images broadcast around the world, demonizing the people of New Orleans as "looters" and "criminals," the public perception of New Orleans' people has been shaped by bullying and "tough on crime" rhetoric, exemplified by Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco bringing in National Guard troops shortly after Katrina with the words, "They have M-16s and they are locked and loaded…These troops know how to shoot and kill, and they are more than willing to do so if necessary, and I expect they will." This public perception, now validated by K-Ville, was no doubt a big cause of so-called "Katrina Fatigue" – the widely reported feeling that the nation has run out of sympathy for the people of New Orleans. Why feel sympathy for a city of thugs?
The Disaster Before the Disaster
While shows like K-Ville draws a solid line between good and bad, real life is murkier. Nationwide, nearly 90 percent of people imprisoned in federal prisons are there for nonviolent offenses. Louisiana is at the vanguard of mass-imprisonment, with the highest rate of imprisonment in the country—816 sentenced prisoners per 100,000 state residents. If Louisiana were a county, it would have the highest imprisonment rate in the world. As cases like the that of the Jena Six so vividly demonstrates, the racial disparity in both arrests and sentencing in the state is striking. Although African-Americans make up 32 percent of Louisiana's population, they constitute 72 percent of the state's prison population.
The stories that shows like this one leave untold are those of community coming together to solve problems. In New Orleans, our real "first-responders" are folks in the communities most affected, who were out in the days after the storm rescuing people and distributing food. The true hope for our city lies in projects such as Safe Streets Strong Communities, Families and Friends of Louisiana's Incarcerated Children, and Critical Resistance, grassroots organizations that are on the frontlines of struggles for justice in New Orleans, organizing in their communities and building a movement. There are also the lawyers and advocates of organizations such as Juvenile Justice Project of Louisiana, Innocence Project New Orleans, A Fighting Chance and the Louisiana Capital Assistance Center. These organizations have represented those who the system has abandoned, from kids caught up in notoriously brutal youth prisons to indigent people on death row. These are the truly compelling stories of criminal justice in New Orleans post-Katrina, yet you can be sure that these local voices will be among those that K-Ville will not air.

Debit-card fees canceled; Will banks find new ways to charge customers?
- 11:49 am Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011 by Opinion Staff
After overwhelming consumer protest, Bank of America has announced that it is giving up on its plan to impose a $5-a-month debit card fee.
Wells Fargo and Chase have canceled tests on similar fees.
The banks sought to impose the debit card fees after a new federal financial reform law limited the amount they could charge in "swipe fees." Those fees averaged 44 cents per transaction.
Merchants typically passed them on to consumers as a cost of doing business. Consumers for the most part were unaware of the fees or their effect on prices.
Nobody can say whether lower swipe fees – they're now [More]

"The Wire" creator and the death of journalism
Posted on
May 7, 2009
Steve Fennessy
At the risk of engaging in a little bit of hyperbole, "The Wire" is the best TV show in the history of the galaxy. Its creator, David Simon, was for not all that many years a journalist at the once-great
Baltimore Sun
, and it was his perspective as a reporter on the cops beat that gave us shows such as "Homicide" and, most notably, "The Wire," which over its five seasons did more to capture the truth of the American city's decline (in this case, Baltimore) than any newspaper series or non-fiction book ever has.
But although Simon long ago abandoned journalism for the "fleshpots" of Hollywood, as he calls it, his heart is still tethered to his old job. Yesterday he testified before a U.S. Senate subcommittee on the future of journalism, and
his testimony
is worth a read, assuming you're American and care about the country's future. (When you're reading it, you might substitute "Atlanta Journal-Constitution" where he says "Baltimore Sun." The comparisons are not clean ones but they are, to a degree, instructive.)
Some excerpts are below, which I'm aggregating, which Simon himself says really doesn't serve much of a larger purpose. But anyway:
-- "The Internet...does not deliver much first-generation reporting. Instead, it leeches that reporting from mainstream publications, whereupon aggregating websites and bloggers contribute little more than repetition, commentary and froth. Meanwhile, readers acquire news from the aggregators and abandon its point of origin -- namely the newspapers themselves. In short, the parasite is slowly killing the host."
-- "The very phrase citizen journalist strikes my ear as nearly Orwellian. A neighbor who is a good listener and cares about people is a good neighbor; he is not in any sense a citizen social worker. Just as a neighbor with a garden hose and good intentions is not a citizen firefighter. To say so is a heedless insult to trained social workers and firefighters."
-- "My industry butchered itself and we did so at the behest of Wall Street and the same unfettered, free-market logic that has proved so disastrous for so many American industries. And the original sin of American newspapering lies, indeed, in going to Wall Street in the first place. When locally-based, family-owned newspapers like
The Sun
were consolidated into publicly-owned newspaper chains, an essential dynamic, an essential trust between journalism and the communities served by that journalism was betrayed."
-- "It costs money to do the finest kind of journalism. And how anyone can believe that the industry can fund that kind of expense by giving its product away online to aggregators and bloggers is an endless source of fascination to me."

With the recent spate of snow storms in the northeast US, I've been finding BestForecast hourly forecasts to be significantly off in terms of precipitation prediction, timing and actual conditions on the ground. Even this morning, a quick comparison of NWS and BestForecast for snow in CT show major differences with NWS predicting accurately and BestForecast predicting less precipitation and arrival hours later. My friend timed their departure from Mass. to drive south based on BestForecast did not appreciate the errors…
Last week BestForecast was way off in terms of precipitation timing and total accumulation in southern CT….

In his first four starts for Team Valor, all in stakes, Lucky Chappy was consistent: very competitive but winless after getting away from the gate slowly. He was a closing third in the Grade 3 Bourbon Stakes at Keeneland and a rallying fourth in the Grade 1 Breeder' Cup Juvenile Turf. In 2012, he ran second to stablemate Howe Great in the ungraded Kitten's Joy on January 21 at Gulfstream and was the runner-up by a nose to Daddy Nose Best in the Grade 3 El Camino Real Derby on February 18 over the all-weather track at Golden Gate Fields. He is scheduled to make his final prep for the Kentucky Derby in the UAE Derby over the Tapeta surface at the Meydan race course in Dubai. If he does run in the Kentucky Derby, it will be his first start on dirt, just like Team Valor's 2011 Kentucky Derby winner, Animal Kingdom.

Stop budget cuts on South Carolina schools!
Dear Governor Sanford, As parents we are appalled at the recent budget cuts placed upon South Carolina schools. Our children deserve much, much better than this! Georgia's per pupil budget is over $5,000.00 per student and North Carolina's is over $4,000.00 per student. We are furious that our lawmakers passed a bill to give OUR children only $1643.00 per student. This is preposterous! We have a lot of amazing teachers in South Carolina and it is horrible that we may lose many of them because of these cuts! The good, hardworking people of South Carolina elect officials to see that our rights are protected. It is a sad, sad day in South Carolina as we are realizing that no one is protecting the rights of our children. Mr. Governor, we hope that you will be the person to stand on behalf of all South Carolina children and make education a top priority, again.

This project documents New York City's burgeoning urban agriculture movement and the transformative effects it can have on communities with limited access to fresh food and green space.
This project was made possible thanks to a Photo Urbanism Fellowship from the Design Trust for Public Space
In 1917 the Mayor's Committee on Food Gardens issued a report documenting the creation of nearly 12,000 gardens and 1,120 acres of large plots dedicated to growing vegetables in New York City. Nearly one hundred years later, many New Yorkers have no access to fresh produce and those that do often eat food that has traveled hundreds if not thousands of miles. Economic, social and environmental concerns have fueled a revival of urban agricultural in the city.
This work is an effort to create a visual document of the different approaches to implementing a sustainable food system. That there is still arable land within walking distance of a subway and that a rooftop can produce as much food as a field challenges preconceptions of urban and agricultural landscapes. The project looks at how traditional methods of agriculture have been adapted to succeed in an urban environment, examining the evolving relationship between a city and its food source.

Poyet pleased with Brighton performance
Poyet would have enjoyed the journey even more if Dean Hammond had not headed wide of a gaping goal but the Brighton boss admitted: "I call that football, we accept things because you can't control everything.
– Gus Poyet, Brighton Manager
I'm not saying we totally deserved to beat Derby but I think we were slightly better," Poyet said. "I think we had the best chances and the best approach play and most of the ball. Of course there was danger at the end with the fans and the atmosphere but I am going home relaxed today, I like what I see."
