Federal officials will publish a rule formally delaying the sign-up deadline for ObamaCare along with a host of other regulations on Monday.
Here's a peek into the day's Federal Register:
The Department of Health and Human Services is publishing its rule to delay the deadline for people looking to sign up for health insurance through new online marketplaces.
The date, formerly set at Dec. 15, is being pushed back to Dec. 23 in order to give people more time to buy insurance after the troubled rollout of HealthCare.gov. Plans will begin on Jan. 1.
The delay was first announced in November.
AT&T has filed a request for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to clarify or waive a requirement on services phone companies offer that allow people with disabilities to have an intermediary translate their phone conversations.
Additionally, Sprint is asking the FCC to reconsider a rule limiting the distribution of a fund to help communications for people with disabilities.
The FCC is accepting comments on both petitions.
The Federal Election Commission is clarifying its interpretation of rules governing how New York can pick the date for a special primary election.
The Transportation Department is looking for the public to comment on ways to protect unreasonable freight rail rates and make sure that grain shippers are able to follow the procedures to lodge rate complaints.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is publishing an "official interpretation" about penalty fees and disclosure rules for credit card agreements.
Additionally, the Internal Revenue Service is proposing new rules for some partnership liabilities.
The Department of Veterans Affairs is changing the way it pays for medical care outside of the department's system and withdrawing a similar rule that had sparked complaints.
The Agriculture Department is finalizing a regulation to lower the fee charged to Washington cherry handlers for a local marketing order.
The Food and Drug Administration is amending its rules for animal drugs.
The Commerce Department is halting fishing for Greenland turbot in an area of the Bering Sea. Federal officials say that the action is necessary to prevent overfishing. The department is also apportioning reserves to the total fishing limit for the fish.
Additionally, fishers will be able to access a closed area in New England through the rest of the year under certain conditions.
The Defense Department is updating its acquisition rules "to update and clarify requirements" for some items.
The State Department is also updating its acquisition rules to conform to federal changes.
Government operations:
NASA is getting rid of "redundant regulatory language" in some of its rules.

Regarding TRV control
@ August 4, 2014 12:18 AM in Micro-load Dilemma: Add Storage or Nuclear OptionIt would be best to use constant circulation. TRVs control space temp ODR controls boiler/ water temp. Use a ecm circulator to curve power consumption.
Tubing in sand
@ July 27, 2014 10:48 AM in Radiant Heat Matrix Other Than Concrete.Here is something to ponder if your going to do tubing in sand.
That is movement of the tubing expanding and contracting over time working its way to the surface. So an anchoring system needs to be implemented. I would be Leary of staking into soil as the same thing could happen over time working the staking out of the ground.
Thinking this through I would favor elevated beds with the radiant to the root system. Let solar gain heat the atmosphere with in the green house.
I would insulate the tank at all sides but the top backfill with sand allowing the tank temp to radiate into the green house. It may take some trial and error as to what tank temp would allow an acceptable air temp in the green house, and to the root system tubing.
The tank would be heated solar, and what ever alternate means.
I think a vapor moisture barrier on the floor before final floor media is laid to prevent additional water from plant watering in the green house to go in the tank area is critical along with a tank coating. Unless the tank will be plastic not a bad idea.
If this idea did not work out the tank only being a foot deep could be dug down to insulate the top in the future.
If tank is not yet purchased I would opt for a rectangular plastic tank. 67 cubic feet will give you 500 gal. A tank 6x12x1 yields 72 cubic feet or 538 gal. Insulate bottom sides cover top with sand one big emitter with probably pretty low tank temp. If my idea fails dig out the 1' of sand and insulate the top.
Polymetric sand
@ July 26, 2014 4:02 PM in Radiant Heat Matrix Other Than Concrete.Expensive but once down and wetted when dry is hard and flexible. Main use in filling cracks for laying pavers. Polymers and cement are added to the sand for adhesion, and flexibility weeds won't grow through it.
Next thought would be a flow able fill sand with cement additive different mix designs usually richer (more cement) are the difference facilitate flow.
Your talking 1 cy 4" thick of what ever media you choose. Biggest hurdle is short load charge for redi mix
Mix it's gotten brutal around here.
Your cheaper ordering the 5 1/4 cy cut off than ordering 1 cy
Another polymer modified cold patch sell it by the bag, or go to the state or county highway maint yard. I like this option
@ July 23, 2014 1:18 PM in Radiant Heat Matrix Other Than Concrete.Underground tank temp? Typo 550*
Buried tank location? Under green house hmmm one big emitter
Or remote?
Plants grown elevated, or in the ground?
A 500 gal tank would be darn near the
Size of the green house.
6 of one 1/2 dozen of the other
@ July 21, 2014 11:22 PM in Electric Baseboard Vs Hydronic Electric BaseboardsLike Mark says a btu is a btu, and a watt is a watt. The water or oil in the baseboard spreads the heat out over a wider time frame. A little longer heating up, and a little slower cooling down because the water adds mass to the base board. Being electric I doubt either one is superior by much to the other for 4 times the cost is ROI there?
Diaphram tanks
@ July 21, 2014 10:46 PM in bladder tank total volume - who cares?The diaphram, or bladder in the tank has to have room to flex with in the tank this is the exceptance volume. The total volume would there fore need to be larger than the exceptance volume.
There are calculations for sizing that take into account system volume, and temperature/ operating pressure. Thats why you do not see an across the board exceptance volume being 1/2 total tank volume. It all most starts that way with the small ones but as tank size requirements increase the total and exceptance volume ratio changes.
If you look at a tank style expansion tank its usually 2/3 water 1/3 aircushion, but total tank volume depends on the system volume, temperature, and pressure.
They both operate the same way except bladder types keep the air from being absorbed back into the system water
@ July 20, 2014 7:09 PM in Advice needed on heating system installIs actually quite elegant, and others have mentioned ..........
System Air
@ July 18, 2014 6:07 PM in Constantly purging air in hydronic systemSo Icesailors explanation of how pressure effects keeping air in solution is a good one. There is one other thing, and that is temperature.
The hotter the water in the system the more air comes out of solution. So upon filling a system with fresh ambient water the system is brought up to operating temperature air will come out of solution. The pressure helps keep the air entrained in small bubbles to get back to the air seperator, or auto vents as Ice explained.
So every time your adding fresh make up water to the system your adding more air to.
Expansion tank pressure
@ July 17, 2014 8:03 PM in Constantly purging air in hydronic systemNeeds to be set isolated from the system. Set that pressure then bring the system pressure up to psi to match tank psi in this case 18psi
Envelope upgrades
@ July 17, 2014 6:45 PM in Complete new system on small houseI would calc a heat loss with those intended upgrades to see how much difference there is going to be in the load.
IF you are 100% sure those upgrades will take place. I would size the boiler to that heat loss. use the higher water temps until that upgrade happens then you will be poised for lower water temps after upgrading the envelope.
What im trying to say is IF the heat loss proves to allow lower water temps with out increasing radiation. Then you may not have to add more radiation the envelope upgrade will take care of that for you.
You wont know until you run the Futuristic heat loss. And only hang your hat on that IF you are sure that will happen.
efficiency and ROI
@ July 17, 2014 5:19 PM in Complete new system on small houseAs far as the indirect you can make more hot water with the indirect verses conventional, and make it at the efficiency of which ever boiler you choose to use. So 80/85 I wont say 95% because a condensing boiler wont run in that range of efficiency while producing DHW.
About the boiler and ROI. We can plan our ROI with present day utility cost, and say the ROI is not there. But what you dont know is future utility costs, and if anything will steadily increase.
Your heating emitters are High temp 180 for now. You can decrease the required AWT by adding more radiation, or envelope upgrades, or both.
The trick to get high efficiency mod/con boilers to play well with high temp systems is to
get the emitter side of the system ready to recieve the mod/con. you dont need 180* but 1% of the heating season.
If this country is ever going to get green, conservative, what ever you think the path is we ALL have to get away from the frame of mind whats in it for me only.
ROI for high efficiency is not always black and white there is always some gray, and the gray is future energy costs. The question is does one want to be in a position to be ready for it, or wish they would have been.
Im sure you have lurked in some recent discussion about this choice.
@ July 16, 2014 9:23 PM in Do I need a chimney liner?👍
I will jump start the future wall format.
As far as Bob's post
exterior chimneys
@ July 14, 2014 9:24 PM in Do I need a chimney liner?are the hardest to warm up, and keep warm between appliance cycles. unlike an interior built chimney. There fore flue gas condensation is twice as bad. Both still require liner.
Is the existing chimney clay tile lined? the mortar joints between the tiles may have eroded away causing condensate to run between the tiles, and the actual masonry finding its way into the interior space of the home.
Besides above
@ July 14, 2014 8:37 PM in Do I need a chimney liner?With higher efficiency appliances exhausting into the flue the condensing flue gases are acidic, and will eat away at the mortar, and brick your chimney dieing a slow death from the inside out. This also has a lot to do with the NFPA codes.
In the old days with lower efficienciy appliances, and higher stack temps to warm the flue to prevent condensation it was not as bad.
Is this chimnet on the exterior of the home, or running up the interior of the home?
Original post, and drifting from a direct answer.
@ July 13, 2014 12:32 PM in Getting into mod/con businessI usually do embrace drifting off topic in a debate. If the poster is patient, and reads the posts something can be taken away from the discussion....usually.
In this particular case it should bring to light there is no simple direct answer to his question. It's a case by case, wants, needs, goals, budgets for both installer, and end user.
It's like debating which mod/con, or conventional boiler is better. Usually in the end it's about what is available in the area, parts, knowing the product line, features offered, and features really needed.
Savings from a new install is always subjective especially if calculated by end user. So long as the customer is happy with those numbers is what really counts.
In the end choosing not to offer a product line limits his business opportunities.
Oakley White paper
@ July 13, 2014 12:33 AM in Getting into mod/con businessWhat to take from it was its intent.
1.Oversized emitters a plus.
2. Mod/cons condense with high temp emitters IF number one applies.
3.Mod/cons are more efficient than conventional equipment.
What you chose to take from it is your intent. For you that is cost of ownership vs efficiency.
@ July 10, 2014 6:10 PM in Getting into mod/con businessIt is less than professional, and people are going to lurk, and see that someone is doing it so that makes it okay especially if a professional condones it. Its one thing to experiment when you know what you are doing, and another when you do not know what your doing. I'm not insinuating you.
Another in my opinion is you want to debate cost of ownership from conventional to mod/con without the full understanding of the technology. Disregarding everything that comes in the box of one verse the other. That's worth loads to the installer, and the consumer in the end. Your using a water heater a step below conventional even, and also purchasing loads of extra parts to make it do what you want when in fact the seemingly more expensive option comes with all the parts all ready assembled into a neat plug and play package. You get what you pay for. The water heater will never approach the efficiency of a conventional boiler. Now you could do what Rich does, and use the HTP product Pioneer which has the technology built into the over all purchase.
@ July 9, 2014 9:59 PM in Complete new system on small houseis that going to be needed?
Great idea Mark
@ July 9, 2014 9:52 PM in Jury Rules That CSST is a Defective ProductBut who pays for the plumber/fitter everytime there is a thunderstorm, and a whole subdivision of houses impregnated with the csst pipe gets locked out.

But how many out of pocket lock outs is going to make a homeowner disconnect the saftey feature unaware of the risk, or just willing to take the risk? Or would this be a supplier feature with a tampering is unlawful, and imposes fine or imprisonment tag.
@ July 9, 2014 9:43 PM in Getting into mod/con businessNo shirt required.
Boiler temp
@ July 9, 2014 8:32 PM in Getting into mod/con businessWhy would you not keep the boiler temp at 180 mix down for the emitters if 100 degrees is all you need BC? That would give a 40 delta for the indirect. I dont see the cost of maintaining a water heater tank temp at 140-150 all the time, and having to lose efficiency through an HX so its oversized to do the job.
Hot Rod
@ July 9, 2014 8:24 PM in Getting into mod/con businessI dont think anyone here would disagree with that direct statement. It does cost money to be green on all fronts,except for my schwinn world sport 10 speed from high school I still have, and do ride for leisure;-) But sooner or later it should, and will be a requirement, and this will all be a mute point in cost of ownership no?

Our road trip started more than 5 hours late.
But we did it!
We got out of town…eventually.
The last few hours before leaving
Everybody was in a mood by then and people were bugged that (whoever it was) took way too long getting packed and getting everything in line before we left.
I was tempted to get super bugged. To start going off on people for their bad attitudes, to chastise someone for snapping at the person nearest to them.
Usually, getting out of the house is when I get the most stressed…those hours just before we are supposed to leave and then again when we haven't left two hours after our target time.
What I did when I wanted to get mad…
This time though…I decided to laugh. I laughed as I said, just as everyone is beginning to freak out at each other. It's ok! Go ahead and freak out. We are all bugged that we haven't left yet. We all wish we were gone. It's ok.
And then I laughed to myself. I don't know why. It just felt better than getting mad.
Maybe it was for me. Maybe it was for everybody.
Either way, it helped. It lightened those moments enough to make leaving feel less tense and more hopeful.
Here are some road trip truths I've learned:
People are going to get mad. It's ok.
Kids are going to stay up way too late and wake up too early. It's ok.
You're going to lose your cool at the free continental breakfast in the hotel lobby. It's ok.
You're not going to get enough sleep. It's ok.
There will be lots of fun. Some of it will feel fun. Some of it won't. It's ok.
You'll be disappointed on some days. It's ok.
There will be days that will feel perfect and there will be days that don't feel perfect. It's ok.
The thing is…no matter what happens on your trip…everything is going to be ok.
The more I say "It's ok"……
The better this trip feels to me. The more relaxed I feel. The more I lean into the moment I'm in. The more I forgive myself for the way the day has gone, the more I forgive myself for the way my kids are feeling, the more I forgive others for what they do, the more I have mercy for other people around me…whether they are road tripping or not.
It's ok.

Pope John Paul II
Words Do Matter
I have had it with the debate over the language used to describe abortion.
The argument that the language of the pro-life movement is responsible for the death of George Tiller is preposterous nonsense. It reduces us to nothing but objects pushed about by the forces of propaganda.
The truth is that one does not need propaganda to become outraged to the point of homicide; one can simply look up the details of what the procedure of abortion involves, particularly the partial-birth abortions performed by Tiller. The cold hard facts, regardless of any political spin or the additional words of any commentator, is quite sufficient.
Women Priests in the Catholic Church?
On the Ordination of Women, Pt. I
The Catholic Church in the modern world has faced numerous petitions to alter her doctrine in regard to several theological and moral matters. The ordination of women is amongst such petitions, particularly after the Second Vatican Council. Several Protestant religious traditions have authorized women ministers and preachers. Many churches in the Anglican Communion already permit women to serve at the altar. The Catholic Church is virtually alone, with the sole exception of the Eastern Orthodox, in her commitment to an exclusively male priesthood. Despite these realities, the late Holy Father, Pope John Paul II solemnly declared in his apostolic letter Ordinatio Sacerdotalis "…the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful." Despite the Holy Father's attempt to reaffirm the Church's tradition of male-only priests, the question, at least in debate, still remains. Despite the sincerity of advocates for conferring the sacrament of ministerial priesthood on women, theologically and doctrinally it is impossible. Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) too has reiterated that the church teaching regarding women's ordination is "founded on the written Word of God, and from the beginning constantly preserved and applied in the Tradition of the Church, it has been set forth infallibly by the ordinary and universal Magisterium."
The Culture of Death and Consumerism
Contributor Joe Hargrave posted a link to an interesting new essay of his today on the topic of the Culture of Death and its connections to consumerism. It's an interesting essay, and I encourage people to read it. I do not pretend to similar length or erudition in this piece, but in formulating some thought about Joe's essay I realized that it would be very long for a comment, so I'm writing it up as a post here instead.
There are a lot of things I found interesting and wanted to discuss (or dispute) in your essay — perhaps in part because I get the impression that our areas of historical knowledge are somewhat non-overlapping (I know most about 3000 BC to 400 AD, you seem to be most expert on the last two centuries), and the person who imagines himself an expert in anything invariably has all sorts of quibbles with what the "outsider" writes. However, I'm going to try to stick to what I think is my most central critique.
Joe finds at the root of the culture of death the materialistic and individualistic phenomenon of modern consumerism, and about consumerism he says the following, beginning with a quote from Pope John Paul II:
April Is Abortion Recovery Awareness Month
Hattip to Opinionated Catholic. Abortion Recovery International, a group dedicated to helping women heal from the trauma of abortion has proclaimed April as Abortion Recovery Awareness Month. Bobby Jindal, Governor of Louisiana, has issued a proclamation, as has Governor Rick Perry of Texas. Bravo to the Governors! Hey Jenkins, if Notre Dame really needs to honor a politician, you need look no farther than Catholic convert Bobby Jindal!
Abortion Pride Movement
I am not easily shocked after participating in the struggle against abortion since 1973, but this article did shock me. Taking pride in the deaths of millions of innocents each year? Jesus wept. The fight against abortion is the preeminent moral struggle of our time, first to save the lives of the most innocent among us, but second because of the damage that legal abortion does to our moral sense. If we take pride in abortion, is there any crime that we cannot, and will not, take pride in?
The Cause of Canonization for Pope John Paul II
Pope John Paul II may be canonized on Divine Mercy Sunday according to several news sources. Pray for the canonization of the late Holy Father, whom was an incredible witness to the Gospel of Life in the 20th and early 21st century.
According to news sources, the Vatican is investigating a 'miracle' of a guy who survived being shot in the head, believing that it was the intercession of John Paul II:
When Jory Aebly was shot in the head, execution-style during a mugging five weeks ago in Cleveland, Ohio, that should have been the end of it. Doctors at the Metro Health Medical Center told his family it was a "non-survivable" injury, according to the hospital's Web site.
Catholic Social Teaching and the Welfare State
(Originally published at InsideCatholic.com)
It might surprise some to learn that the basic idea behind the "welfare state" did not originate with either Marxist revolutionaries or bleeding-heart liberals, but rather with a head of state usually identified with conservatism: Otto von Bismarck. Faced with a growing threat from the German socialist movement, in the 1880s Bismarck established four programs that were essentially the minimum of the socialist program: health insurance, accident insurance (or workmen's compensation), disability insurance, and a retirement fund for the elderly. By implementing these programs, the German leader hoped to steal some of the thunder from the socialists and prevent a revolutionary uprising.
In the United States, a similar motivation guided the architects of the New Deal, Social Security, and other programs now grouped under the broad heading "welfare state." One might never know, based on today's heated political rhetoric, that the idea behind the welfare state was to prevent, not bring about, socialism. Yet since the 2008 campaign, welfare, along with regulation and redistribution, have become synonymous with "socialism" in America.
Catholics have been as divided over these issues as the nation at large, with nearly everyone interested in the political debate combing the social doctrines of the Church to support one theory at the expense of another. So where precisely does the Church stand on the issue of welfare?
Pope John Paul II On The "American Experiment"
As Zach indicates, the title of this blog itself is something of a quandary: what does it mean to be a Catholic in America? To participate in this great "American experiment" in ordered liberty? — these are questions which I'll admit preoccupied me for some time now.
On December 16, 1997, Pope John Paul II welcomed the Honorable Lindy Boggs as Ambassador to the Holy See with the following words to her and the American people:
You represent a nation that plays a crucial role in world events today. The United States carries a weighty and far-reaching responsibility, not only for the well-being of its own people, but for the development and destiny of peoples throughout the world. With a deep sense of participation in the joys and hopes, the sorrows, anxieties, and aspirations of the entire human family, the Holy See is a willing partner in every effort to build a world of genuine peace and justice for all. …

Once upon a time, an Aussie named Robert Bou-Simon worked at London brokerage BGC Partners. In 2005, he left the firm to explore his options elsewhere, and in 2012, rejoined as the head of the basis swaps desk. This time, though, things were different. None of his old buddies were there. There were new names to learn and new faces to remember. Even though he'd worked at BGC for the better half a decade in the early 2000s, people treated him like he was the new guy, and, as the new guy, expected him to take part in a sort of wet t-shirt "initiation" exercise taken very seriously by the staff, who bristled at the idea of someone electing to take a pass, which is where things started to go south for Bou-Simon.

Sundays adventure consisted of a hour bus trip up the side of a mountain to reach the ancient site of Lamos way up in the hills. It started out quite interesting when Michael the guy in charge was punching it up a cobblestone road in a minibus from the 80's full of about 20 people.

'Above reproach': A high standard, often met
"You have to be above reproach."
That is how Kensington Police Chief Mike Sielicki, the incoming president of the New Hampshire Chiefs of Police Association, described the ethics of being a chief of police. "You have to have more integrity in what you do, and that gives credibility to our profession."
In interviews with the New Hampshire Sunday News last week, that theme was repeated by chiefs of police across New Hampshire. Derry Police Chief Edward Garone, the longest-serving police chief in New Hampshire, is one of only three chiefs in the nation to have served their communities for more than 40 years. He told the Sunday News that when he was a new officer he was told, "People will look at you differently. They will hold you to a higher standard, and if you're not willing to accept that, don't get into this profession."
That's something. How many jobs come with that kind of warning - and with people who readily accept that kind of challenge?
"We are entrusted with a tremendous amount of authority given us by those we serve," Garone said. Most New Hampshire police chiefs seem to understand that. One little mistake, and they can erode the community's trust in the whole police department, in all police departments everywhere.
Here in New Hampshire, recent bad news regarding the conduct of some police chiefs and officers has disappointed the public, but probably not as much as it has disappointed their counterparts. New London Police Chief David Seastrand resigned after being accused of offering to drop charges against a pretty college student if she would pose nude for him. Other women reported similar complaints after the story broke. Danville Chief Wade Parsons was charged last week with negligent storage of a firearm after a 15-year-old boy found Parsons' service gun and killed himself with it. A Manchester police officer was fired after allegedly hitting two teenage boys in Bedford while driving home in his undercover patrol car, then fleeing the scene.
After these incidents, it was heartening to hear so many police chiefs explain with genuine concern that they hold themselves to higher standards of conduct because that is what the public expects.

Gorgeous - but the kids hate them.
These are very very delicious, although I prefer the plain salt ones. Lovely and buttery and puffy. Quite high in rosemary content - so be sure you like herbs before you buy these ones.
29 August 2013
Dry and tasteless
Very disappointed with these. Like eating expensive cardboard. Threw half the packet away.
29 December 2012
Not impressed with these biscuits at all. Don't taste of much and are very bland. Will be sticking to cream crackers next time!
23 December 2012
packet half empty
For 3.30 i expected the packet to be full.What a swizz half empty packet.Won't buy again.

CNET Top 5
With its powerful processor, great camera, decent screen and gorgeous, waterproof design, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact is the best small Android phone around.
The Xperia Z1S is the most impressive smartphone Sony has ever sold on any carrier, but an inferior screen makes Samsung's Galaxy handsets better deals.
The Sony Z Ultra Google Play Edition's insanely large size and stratospheric price make the Nexus 5 and Note 3 better options for pure Android power.
With its aluminium body, high-quality digital audio amplifier, and ability to play lossless audio files, the Sony NWZ-Z10 is an MP3 player for the dedicated audiophile that demands top-quality sound.
This USB tuner means Xbox One owners can watch TV via their console without switching TV input, and use voice controls too.
Pricing not available
Sony's flagship Xperia Z1 packs a Full HD display, a quad-core processor, and a whopping 20.7-megapixel camera into a waterproof body and wraps it in an aluminium frame.
The Sony KDL-W800B series is a classy television with excellent color and shadow detail, but in pure bang-for-buck terms, its black level can be bettered for much less.
The Xperia T3 may not have the high-end specs of its top end brother, the Xperia Z2, but its big screen and good looks make it a fair choice for those of you looking for an attractive phone with a display large enough to enjoy movies on the go.
The Xbox One Media Remote is a must-have accessory that makes it much easier to accept a gaming console as the hub of your living room.
With comparably good sound for its size and the addition of speakerphone features, the Sony SRS-X3 mini Bluetooth speaker measures up well against the pricier Bose SoundLink Mini.

David Kahn:
CAST. 40s-50s. Wealthy Manhattan modern art dealer. David revels in his lavish lifestyle surrounded by art and successful artists. David doesn't suffer fools, has a razor wit, and a finely polished sense of sarcasm. Does not hold up well in a crisis.
Barbara Kahn:
CAST. Fortyish. David's wife and business partner. Glamorous; worldly. Appearances are important to her. She too enjoys her lifestyle on Manhattan's east side, and has done a good job of distancing herself from her odd relations and her Long Island roots.
Trudy Heyman:

Martin Heyman:
50s. Trudy's husband; a tax accountant and happily so. Bespectacled. Also uncomfortable in David & Barbara's world.
Sophie Greengrass:
70s-80s. A formidable Jewish mother. A bit unkempt at first, walks with a walker, hair is wild, can't hear well. Age has done nothing, however, to diminish her ability to use guilt on her daughters. As the play progresses, we find that Sophie is capable of changing on a dime - she finds she is still a beautiful woman who is capable of loving.
Maurice Koenig:
CAST. Late 90s. A legendary Jewish artist. Modeled after Marc Chagall, Maurice is a stylish, nattily dressed artist. Even at his age he is a bit of a lady's man.

A propane tank on the back of a Philadelphia food truck exploded yesterday. The truck turned into a fireball, injuring 12, two of them critically.
Surveillance video from two nearby businesses caught the whole thing on tape. A mother and 18-year-old daughter working on the truck were are still in the hospital, with serious burns.
The video has gone viral and is unnerving to watch, especially since many of us frequent downtown Tampa's food truck rally on the first Wednesday of every month.
Could this happen here?
Tampa Fire Marshal Milton Jenkins heard about the explosion Wednesday morning and immediately thought of Tampa's rally. He checked on the reports and found that the trucks had not been inspected before the event started, as required. So he went down to the food truck rally himself to check it out. He met an inspector there.
Jenkins explained there was a scheduling mix-up, and the inspector was booked to do other inspections before the food trucks. They found nothing extremely serious, but found one truck didn't have the proper extinguisher.
"It normally happens with new vendors," Jenkins said. "They have the suppression system and don't realize they also need the extinguisher."
He shut down that truck, but 8 On Your Side found the food truck continuing to operate.
Marshall said the truck operator could serve the food already cooked but couldn't cook more food until the extinguisher was there.
The Philadelphia explosion is still under investigation.

I've been kicked, laughed at, made fun of, yelled at, lied to, cussed at, called names, and given unnecessary grief. I've caught jumpers, weed smokers, underage drinkers, taken tickets, attached wristbands, and attended the guest list all while working the door. One of the promoters told me seven months ago that working the door was one of the most stressful jobs you could have at the Concert House.
A truer statement in the world there is not.
Over the past few shows I have been making more and more small mistakes. This has compounded the amount of stress that is usually brought down on my head. It hasn't been anything worthy of firing me, but it has brought forth a wave of scrutiny.
As of standing I am no longer the door man.
******************************************************************************Woodchip of Wisdom: Big thoughts lead to big reality. Bad thoughts lead to bad reality.

Your jaw might have just dropped. I did enjoy the job, but now it weighs me down like a pair of shackles on a chain gang. So, when they told me that I didn't have the position my back suddenly became straighter. My mood elevated and I walked back into the venue feeling better than I had in a long time.
This is the same job I started with, roving. When I first started I was very up tight. I could count the number of concerts I had attended on one hand. I had never been a bouncer. I had no idea what was in the venue or what people were capable of. I did my best to look tough. I don't know if it worked because they put me on the door after a month and a half. After seeing so many people at the door, you start to get a feel of who comes to what shows. You now roughly how many are going to walk through the door, how they are going to dance, how much they'll probably drink, and even estimate the number of ejections.
With this knowledge I glide through the crowd looking for the tell tale signs of mischief and wrong doing. I don't have to look tough. After being punched in the face and kicked a few times I feel tough and most of the crowd recognizes it. I am coming to enjoy the little things my boss asks of me. No longer am I chained to the doors I get to be helpful in a different capacity.
For example I had a mother come in looking for her son who wasn't supposed to be there. So, I got to escort her throught the concert until she found him. She was not happy and I took the time to shoo away one of his little friends who wanted to ask him something before leaving. We also aided in keeping several patrons sober of narcotics when we busted a fellow who was the head of distribution ring. He didn't have anything on him, but the excessive amount of cash in his pockets was enough to incriminate him. He has been permanently banned from the venue. I help the handicapped up and down the elevators, look for lost items and, clean up when necessary.
I will also have to engage the patrons more. Where it was once my job to keep them out now I have to throw them out. It is my job to escort those to drunk to party to the door. I have to walk underagers out of the venue when they get caught drinking. I take people's funny cigarettes and crush them in front of them. I shoo people out of the dark corners of the venue. During foam parties I walk out amongst the foam and at heavy metal concerts I stand near the mosh pit. I am one of the ones whose job is to keep the heart beating safely of every concert that turns on an amplifier.
There are some rules I have to be tough on, but now that I have a feel for the crowds I get to pick an choose which ones I enforce and how thoroughly I enforce them. It is nice to be able to make those kinds of calls instead of being the puppet at the door.
You never truly start over as your experiences can never be erased from your person.
Don't forget to check out the rest of Concert House Rocks
Thanks for reading,

Police issue posters in murder hunt
Over 10,000 posters are being distributed to homes in Ravenscliffe and surrounding neighbourhoods as part of the latest enquires into the death of Clement Desmier.
They call on local people to come forward with information about the 68-year-old's lifestyle and movements prior to his body being found on 23 August 2012.
– Detective Superintendent Mark Ridley
We are beginning to build up a clearer picture of Mr Desmier's last movements, however; we still need vital details that will help us to develop our investigations further.It is imperative that we hear from any witnesses or anyone with information who could assist in our enquiry further."

Copper fell 0.52 percent or $35.58 to trade at $6,843 a tonne on Tuesday, according to Reuters. Chinese data on investment, retail sales and factory activity suggests the country's economy is slowing. However, other conditions are favorable to copper.
"The copper market is tight inside and outside China," Joel Crane, an analyst at Morgan Stanley in Melbourne, told Reuters. "Inventories are falling; we are in the midst of peak Chinese demand season; Chinese producers are going to export less; scrap availability is low … there are a lot of things acting to improve its fundamental picture."
Copper futures for July delivery on New York's Comex dropped 0.3 percent or $0.009 to $3.14 per pound, according to Bloomberg.

UFC light heavyweight champion, Jon Jones deletes more tweets and Instagram posts than any athlete I've seen on either social network. It's become something of a game with fans and media, a race to screen cap or rip video before he can rescind their access. It's a game he'll never win, because there are far too many dedicated folks out there that are ready to snatch and grab.
His latest 'Now you see it, now you don't' moment is a short Instagram video he posted that addresses those that would call him scared, accusing him of ducking a rematch with Alexander Gustafsson. Since their September rock 'em sock 'em battle, that fight is the one fans and media alike have clamored for.
Jones has other plans, though, calling for a bout with unbeaten Top 5 contender, Daniel Cormier. Cormier and Bones have a bit of history and there is no love lost between the two. In the video, he taunts viewers with a snarky comment about his choice of opponent.
Here's the quote, in it's entirety:
Asking for an undefeated Olympic wrestler, strikeforce champion makes me somehow a coward? How about the fact that I beat Gustaffson already? Whether you guys like how close it was or not. It's my career. Not yours.
Our friends at Bleacher Report were able to snag the video before he took it down, just moments after putting it up.

New Facebook apps to spearhead emergency support

I'm already getting sick of Facebook being in our town. It's not a company that benefits anything, it just supports drama, stalking and privacy breaching. Why do so many people look past those glaring cons? Additionally I don't think it should be admirable to work for Facebook. It should be embarrassing that so many people buy into their theory of a transparent world, information wise.

No one forces people to sign up for Facebook. 800,000,000 people seem to enjoy it.

Why So Negative writes: "No one forces people to sign up for Facebook. 800,000,000 people seem to enjoy it."
People are being coerced more and more to sign up, I'm afraid. There are media sites, including a local newspaper chain, that won't let you post comments unless you're on Facebook. Pressure builds to sign on, but I can tell you that if I ultimately sign up, I'll be holding my nose, not enjoying it.

I love it. I used Facebook during the Chile quake to help family members in France know that their loved one was OK and so was his house... I found the message via his friends in other South American counries! Pretty cool. And I love having Facebook here in my hometown. So what if folks wanna stalk me. I could make myself hidden, but I have nothing to hide. P.S. I got a free roundtrip to see my daughter perform that I could afford from a famous person I met on Facebook because he was a fan and said I could NOT miss the show. He bought it and said he would be doing someone a favor (by letting them have an empty seat next to them) if I chose not to take it. Not to mention I reconnected with so many of my childhood friends, and I can follow my daughters shows, since they do not have time to constantly update me from the road.
Some of this discussion reminds me or a Sartre quote... people say they hate tomatoes without ever having eaten one.

If Prince Edward, The Prince of Wales, would have been able to court either Grand Duchess Olga or Grand Duchess Tatiana, perhaps an engagement and eventual wedding would have occurred.
At least with either Olga or Tatiana married to the heir of King George V of England, both the Prince and Princess of Wales (Edward and Olga {Tatiana}) could have persuaded George V to rescue the Russian Imperial Family.

The New York Philharmonic
Glenn Dicterow, joined by his fellow members of The Antonin String Quartet and by pianist Gerald Robbins, performs in a farewell chamber music recital presented in collaboration with The Juilliard School, where he is a longtime faculty member.
All tickets have been distributed; the day of the concert, a stand-by line will form at 4:00PM for returned tickets only.
String Quartet in F major, American (1893)
It was in Spillville, Iowa, a small town with a predominantly Czech population, that Antonín Dvořák composed his American String Quartet during his sojourn there, from 1892 to 1895. The work was inspired by his impressions of what he considered indigenous "American" music — like Negro spirituals and the pentatonic scale of American Indians. But like the New World Symphony, this quartet more likely conveys the spirit of his native Bohemia, which was never far from Dvořák's mind. Marked by a seemingly endless stream of lovely melodies passed among the musicians, the four movements are, in turn, achingly beautiful (like the second movement Lento), playful, jaunty, and rhythmically stunning. Birdwatcher alert: in the Molto vivace, listen for the song of a scarlet tanager, a bird indigenous to Iowa that Dvořák encountered on his walks. And the finale will leave you feeling exhilarated as it hurtles to a joyous conclusion.
Glenn Dicterow has established himself worldwide as one of the most prominent American concert artists of his generation. His extraordinary musical gifts became apparent when, at age 11, he made his solo debut in Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto with the Los Angeles Philharmonic (where his father, Harold Dicterow, served as principal of the second violin section for 52 years). In the following years, Mr. Dicterow became one of the most sought-after young artists, appearing as soloist from coast to coast.
Mr. Dicterow, who has won numerous awards and competitions, is a graduate of The Juilliard School, where he was a student of Ivan Galamian. In 1967, at the age of 18, he performed as soloist with the New York Philharmonic under Andre Kostelanetz in Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto. In 1980 he joined the Orchestra as Concertmaster, and has since performed as soloist every year, most recently in Brahms's Double Concerto in November 2012, with cellist Alisa Weilerstein, conducted by Case Scaglione. Prior to joining the New York Philharmonic, he served as Associate Concertmaster and Concertmaster of the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
Mr. Dicterow, who frequently appears as a guest soloist with other orchestras, has made numerous recordings. His most recent CD is a solo recital for Cala Records entitled New York Legends, featuring John Corigliano's Sonata for Violin and Piano, Korngold's Much Ado About Nothing, the premiere recording of Leonard Bernstein's Sonata for Violin and Piano, and Martinů's Three Madrigals for violin and viola, in collaboration with violist Karen Dreyfus and pianist Gerald Robbins. His recording of Bernstein's Serenade, on Volume 2 of the American Celebration set, is available on the New York Philharmonic's Website, nyphil.org. Mr. Dicterow can also be heard in the violin solos of the film scores for The Turning Point, The Untouchables, Altered States, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Interview with the Vampire, among others. Glenn Dicterow is on the faculty of The Juilliard School and Manhattan School of Music, as well as a faculty artist at the Music Academy of the West, following three years of participation in Music Academy Summer Festivals. Beginning in the fall of 2013, he will become the first to hold the Robert Mann Chair in Strings and Chamber Music at the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music.

She teaches in South Korea and the United States, and has performed with the Seoul National Philharmonic Orchestra and the SooWon, North Carolina, Winston-Salem, and Durham symphony orchestras. Ms. Kim's chamber music activities have included the Philharmonic Ensembles series, Hofstra Chamber Ensemble series, Mostly Chamber Festival, Lyric Chamber Music Society, and Brooklyn's Bargemusic; collaborations with the late Lukas Foss, Lynn Harrell, Ani Kavafian, Yo-Yo Ma, and Garrick Ohlsson; European performances under the International Music Program; and Jordan's Jurash Festival at the invitation of King Hussein. Lisa Kim began violin studies at age seven, attended the North Carolina School of the Arts, and earned bachelor's and master's degrees from The Juilliard School. She has won prizes in the Arts Recognition and Talent Search, Bryan Young Artists String Competition, Winston-Salem Young Talent Search, and Durham Symphony Young Artists Competition. She joined the faculty of the Manhattan School of Music in 1999.
Eileen Moon joined the cello section of the New York Philharmonic in 1998 and was named Associate Principal Cello, The Mr. and Mrs. Paul B. Guenther Chair, in 2007. A native of California, she began her studies with Irene Sharp at the San Francisco Conservatory and subsequently received a bachelor's of music degree from The Juilliard School and a performance diploma from the Hochshule für Musik in Vienna, Austria.
Ms. Moon won fourth prize at the Tchaikovsky International Cello Competition in Moscow in 1994, and second prize at the Geneva International Cello Competition in 1991, resulting in performances in France and a radio recording in Switzerland. She has performed chamber music at numerous venues in and around New York City and appears frequently with the New York Philharmonic Ensembles at Merkin Concert Hall.
Ms. Moon currently serves in an organizational role for a number of charitable causes as both a performer and presenter. Her passion for animals resulted in the formation of Friends of Warwick Valley Humane Society, an auxiliary group devoted to fundraising through educational seminars and performances. In addition, she is involved with The Artemis Project, a non-profit animal rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption organization in New York City, which she co-founded in 2000 with Philharmonic colleague Dorian Rence. Ms. Moon is a strong advocate for Celebrate Life Half Marathon, whose mission is to assist cancer patients with treatment and associated care.
Eileen Moon is artistic advisor at Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Sullivan County, New York, and curator and presenter of its chamber music series, Sundays with Friends. She is founder and artistic director of Warwick Music Series in Warwick, New York, where she resides with Principal Horn Philip Myers and their animals.

Adventureland captured me as strongly as any film I've seen in a long time. Disparage its R-rated content if you must (and I wouldn't disparage anyone in return who would), but there is an authentic core to this nostalgic story that can't be denied.

Ramin Bahrani's Goodbye Solo is a simple tale, quietly told, and one of the best films you'll ever see. While God is never mentioned during its 90-minute run time, it works as an eloquent parable of God's love for fallen people.

Considering the way art seems to imitate Miley Cyrus' life these days, the timing probably couldn't be better for the big-screen treatment of Hannah Montana. Not only does it solidify Cyrus' place as the ultimate good girl, but Hannah is a character Cyrus can play convincingly.

The Class, which won the top award at the most recent Cannes Film Festival, mixes teacher-student interaction throughout the course of one year at a school in Paris with behind-the-scenes political maneuvers and struggles.

Instead of shooting for a straight remake, filmmakers prefer to call the latest installment a "reimagining." And given the slightly cheesy, low-grade special effects of Race to Witch Mountain's predecessor, that's probably accurate.

The Soloist entertains and inspires with its pitch-perfect portrayal of redemption between an unlikely duo. And for Christians and otherwise, it's also a powerful reminder that authenticity and not bailing when the going gets tough is always the best way to live.

Apart from the film's ho-hum plot and performances, the most worrying thing of all about Fast & Furious is this: its astounding box-office take. As I write this review following the film's opening weekend, its box-office haul exceeds $70 million.

The popularity of Jonas Brothers rivals that of The Beatles back in the day (in the U.S. anyway). It's a fact that's not entirely lost on the band as a clip from the Fab Four's first full-length movie rolls in the background of one scene of Jo Bros' first movie.

Street Fighter should be a martial-arts extravaganza, but the fight scenes are infrequent, unsurprising and dull. Blame that on director Andrzej Bartkowiak, who in 2005 helmed the forgettable Doom.

Not only is Confessions of a Shopaholic a cautionary tale of excess gone seriously awry, but it's a colossal embarrassment to my gender. With a heroine so self-involved that she makes ditzy Elle Woods (of Legally Blonde fame) look like a Rhodes scholar in comparison, it's woefully misguided from the start.
Inkheart brings Cornelia Funke's much-loved novel to life without losing the glorious detail and character development in the process—an essential for great literature and an oft-neglected feature of many novels-turned-movies.
While the originals in The Pink Panther series were fueled by comic inspiration, invention and wit, the contemporary rip-offs are barely even trying. The difference is best exemplified by comparing Peter Sellers' Inspector Clouseau and Steve Martin's pale imitation.
In light of Oscar nominee Viola Davis' soaring reputation, it's no surprise that the actress takes Tyler Perry's latest tale, Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail, and gives it more dramatic weight than expected.

Clint Eastwood's performance as Walt Kowalski in Gran Torino is the film's highlight—an update on the tough-guy persona he perfected as "Dirty Harry" Callahan. He clings to his older ways in a neighborhood that has changed significantly.

Literary thrillers are a staple of airplane rides and beachside vacations. The International is their cinematic equivalent, and though it's as instantly disposable as those paperback counterparts it's also as equally riveting.

Gay marriage safe in New Hampshire for now
by Rex Wockner
Originally printed 3/10/2011 (Issue 1910 - Between The Lines News)
New Hampshire's Legislature will not vote in 2011 on either of two bills aimed at repealing the two-year-old law that made same-sex marriage legal.
Members of the House judiciary committee voted 15-0 without debate March 3 to place the bills on hold until 2012.
The committee unanimously voted down a third bill that would have converted same-sex marriages into a new kind of civil union different from the civil unions New Hampshire used to have.
An estimated 1,400 same-sex couples have married in New Hampshire.

The surf's always up in Western Australia. Famous for its quality and variety, Western Australia's 12,000 kilometres of coastline makes it the perfect frontier for surfing holidays. Plenty of reefs, beaches and point breaks - take your pick.
The undisputed surf capital of Western Australia, Margaret River is home to a huge array of challenging and powerful waves over 40 scenic kilometres of coastline - not to mention local surf stars Taj Burrow and Jake Patterson. Surfer's Point, which hosts the Margaret River Pro, offers powerful ground swells and first-class waves.
There are countless awesome breaks on offer at Ningaloo Reef, which was home to the Billabong Super Challenge events in the mid-90s. Offers some of the most spectacular and secluded surf spots in Western Australia.
Ocean Beach in Denmark is the perfect place to learn the surfing basics, with long, rolling waves and a gentle rip that guides surfers out to the breaking waves. A local surf school is on hand to help master your technique.
Esperance is one of the world's best-kept surfing secrets. Here, the ocean is filled with hundreds of islands and reefs breaking on the horizon. For an adventure, try to find Cyclops - hailed as the most hyped and least surfed wave in the world.
Around an hour north of Perth, discover stellar surf conditions for all levels. Intermediate grommets will love Eddie Island and Backbeach in Lancelin, while the isolated Alkimos beach in Yanchep suits the pros.
Geraldton's pristine and unpopulated waters are teeming with surf breaks to suit everyone, from novices to pros. Mahomet's Back Beach offers consistently good surf in summer while Sunset Beach has a pumping swell in winter.
16 kilometres off the coast, Rottnest Island offers several extraordinary reef breaks, the most famous of which is Strickland Bay.
Jake's Point in Kalbarri is a picturesque surf beach that serves up some of Australia's most powerful left-handers.
Sandwiched between the seaside towns of Rockingham and Mandurah is a stretch of coastline that's home to consistent rolling surf. Try pristine Singleton, Golden Bay or Secret Harbour beaches.
There's plenty of surfing action to be found close to the city. For Perth's most popular waves, try Scarborough, Trigg, Watermans, City Beach, Floreat or Cottesloe, where towering Norfolk pines line boulevards buzzing with cafes and pubs.

Tanya Morgan - Morgan Blu ft. Blu
Artist: Tanya Morgan
Featuring: Blu
Producer: Von Pea
Album: Brooklynati
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 17 total votes )
All of the summery music in the Booth today has got me thinking of one of my favorite warm-weather pastimes: playing the ponies at Canterbury Park, of course! Brooklyn threesome Tanya Morgan seem to have a similar idea, as Von Pea, Ilyad, and Donwill have titled the follow-up to lead single So Down by the same method that produces many of those inexplicable racehorse names—with Morgan Blu's impressive pedigree, you'd expect an old-school, lyrically-driven winner of a record, and you wouldn't be disappointed; over Pea's sunny, sampled instrumental, the trio team up with Cailfornia's Blu to flow about love, blues, the rap game, and, well, just about everything else. All four emcees' freewheeling verses are so densely packed I'd listen to Morgan Blu about a dozen more times to settle on a favorite—suffice it to say, the record is a buffet of memorable lines, and should have lyrical heads packing their bags for a trip to Brooklynati (due out next Tuesday, the 12th).

Create custom, live-updating tiles (with images!) for Windows 8.1/IE11 users to pin to their Start Screens.
Look at the plugin banner image - which of these Windows Start Screen Tiles would you open, colorful live-updating ones in the top row or static, plain ones in the bottom row?
With Custom Windows Pinned Tiles 2, you can set up your site to display beautiful live-updating tiles in a matter of seconds. Just activate the plugin and pick a tile image and color on the settings page. Then, anyone who pins your site to their start screen with Windows 8.1/IE11 will see your site's logo/image (at the size of their choosing), which will also live-update to display your latest 5 posts, with images if they're available.
Live tiles feature your post titles and excerpts or images from the posts. Your website essentially becomes a Windows 8.1 App; a huge opportunity to engage your visitors and keep them coming back, with headlines from your content appearing directly on their start screen!
