The term "ditched" is often used to describe aircrafts that are abandoned before making a crash landing. However, it equally describes the feeling emanating from Nassau County residents after they learned the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Port Authority would not be attending the last TVASNAC (Town/Village Aircraft Safety Noise & Abatement committee) meeting on Mon., Feb. 27 in Garden City.
For the first time in its 40-year history, TVASNAC's monthly meeting was held in lower level of the library in the Village of Garden City rather than its traditional location in the Village of Lawrence. "This is one of our first meetings outside [Lawrence] in an effort to outreach to the communities that we serve," TVASNAC's Executive Director Kendall Lampkin told a standing-room only crowd.
Adding yet another hurdle to jump in an already complex budget season, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Robert Feirsen officially announced that the estimation of Garden City School District's average annual liability for tax certiorari settlements could be in excess of $1.5 million.
Historically, tax certiorari settlements have been paid by Nassau County. However that all changed last spring when the Nassau County Legislature and the county executive voted to change what had been in place for more than 80 years, which is known as the 'county guarantee' of tax certiorari judgments, according to Feirsen.
Mayor Brudie called upon Garden City residents to consider writing their local and state officials to support recently introduced legislation to repeal the MTA Payroll Tax in order to give relief to Long Island taxpayers.
Enacted in 2009, the MTA Payroll Tax requires local businesses, municipalities and school districts to pay 34 cents for every $100 of their payrolls to help dig the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) out of a $1 billion deficit. The tax affects all businesses and municipalities, school districts and nonprofit organizations that have a payroll and hospitals within the areas that are serviced by the MTA, including Nassau County.
After years of debates and discussions, the question of what the village will do with the site at St. Paul's main building still remains a mystery. However, Garden City Village Trustees Brian Daughney and John DeMaro recently updated board members on the feasibility of erecting a new community center on the site or at another spot in the village.
On July 21, Daughney and DeMaro jointly proposed a motion for the village to hire a consultant to evaluate the feasibility of turning the building into a recreation center at the St. Paul's site. After much discussion, many trustees expressed concern about spending village funds to conduct the study.
This Valentine's Day, love was a many splendored thing for one Garden City couple who renewed their wedding vows during a romantic ceremony performed by Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray at the American Airpower Museum in Farmingdale.
Standing among a collection of vintage American aircrafts and fighter planes, a group of Nassau County GIs with compelling wartime love stories gathered together to renew their commitment to each other in front of a large crowd of friends and family.
On Valentine's Day evening, the Garden City Board of Education convened for its regular meeting and second budget work session in the high school library. Superintendent of Schools Dr. Robert Feirsen presented his second round of budget proposals regarding the non-instructional areas of the school budget.
During his presentation, Feirsen noted that this session was the second step in the budget review process and the expenditures discussed are merely recommendations to the board of education from the administration.
The Garden City School District's proposed 2012-2013 overall budget is $104,976,751, which represents a budget-to-budget increase of $3,859,693 or 3.82 percent. The projected tax levy increase (with STAR) is 4.25 percent and the maximum allowable tax levy is 4.3 percent.
Garden City Police Commissioner Ernest Cipullo asked the Village Board of Trustees at last Thursday's 2012-13 capital/operating budget session for a significant bump in funding to cover overtime pay due to the erratic and incalculable nature of police work.
"As I said at the last budget session, the police business is very unpredictable," Cipullo said. "We can't really tell you what's going to happen next week. I can't tell you what's going to happen in the next five minutes. Accordingly, we were operating most of the last year with six officers out on long-term injury, three vacant positions, and one civilian dispatcher position, so you're talking about 10 people out of the chart. We had to cover that with overtime on many occasions. I hate to tell you, but the overtime that we budgeted last year- based on those vacancies or injuries — we're at half-a-year and our overtime budget is pretty much gone."
Cipullo noted that approximately 94 percent of the police operating budget is comprised of personnel costs, as mandated by an arbitrator's decision.
If you are one of the many Long Islanders paying property taxes this year, the upcoming school budget season promises to be a challenging one in the era of the tax levy cap. Superintendent Dr. Robert Feirsen of Garden City School District held the first in a series of presentations of the 2012/2013 school budget at the Board of Education work session on Tuesday, Feb. 7. The proposal includes an overall budget of $104,976,751 with a budget-to-budget increase of $3,859,693 or 3.82 percent. The projected tax levy (with STAR) is 4.25 percent.
Feirsen opened the meeting explaining that Garden city has a tradition of presenting its budget in great detail, "much greater detail and over many more meetings than many other school districts." He also reminded residents that the evening's review contains only recommendations to the Garden City Board of Education and is the first step in a multistep process, which will include both comments from the community and board discussions.
Ever since Hurricane Irene wrecked havoc on Garden City last summer, the roof and clock tower of St. Paul's Boys School's main building have remained in a state of disrepair. After the village board voted against approving the allocation of funds to pay for damages, it was Garden City residents who intervened and generously offered to perform the labor and donate funds for repair costs.
During the Feb. 2 board meeting, Vincent Muldoon, owner of Old World Quality Corp., announced that he would be willing to perform the repairs on St. Paul's pro bono. Muldoon wanted to further clarify what he said to residents at a recent Eastern Property Owners' Association meeting.
"I'm a resident of the village for a long time and I'm willing to help out in any way I can and I would give up all my own time, the overhead and carry the cost of my company but obviously employees and materials has to be paid for," he explained.
United States Senator Charles E. Schumer was given a warm welcome when he visited the Village of Floral Park Fire Department Headquarters on Monday, Jan. 27. Schumer revealed to a small crowd that more than 70 Nassau County fire departments and seven volunteer ambulance corps are facing major budget hikes in order to meet the year-end deadlines to upgrade existing radio equipment due to federal mandates.
Schumer had only the highest of praise for the volunteer firefighters who came from cities across Nassau County, including Stewart Manor, Garden City, Bellerose, New Hyde Park, Great Neck, Island Park, Valley Stream, East Williston, Port Washington, Bayville, Freeport, Wantagh, and Oceanside, Lakeview.
"As you know I care a lot about our firefighters; they are great people. Nassau County volunteer fire departments are among the best in the country," Schumer said, adding, "They risk their lives, they don't get paid to make us safe. It's a great thing and everyone here in this county is blessed by the quality of the fire departments."

Whilst living abroad for over 10 years, I was always overcome with a sense of nostalgia when discovering a crumpled up Australian $10 note that was hiding in an old bag of mine, or when (once in a blue moon) I decided to clean out my purse and found a small fiver tucked away in a forgotten side pocket concealed under a group of old receipts.
We all know that the internet has given niche markets the ability to gather and create online communities from all corners of the globe, but now we're able to see a new phase of interaction amongst these groups as they search for the next best thing, that is, the real thing.
Following a series of new business wins and continuing to build on our existing client relationships, we are looking for an established Senior Account Manager with a minimum of 7 years agency or studio experience to come on board and join our rapidly expanding team.
2010 saw a new trend in eCommerce websites with the rise of crowdsourcing, group buying, daily deals and flash sale websites. The innovative model was adopted by now giants of the web like Groupon, QuiBids and Kickstarter, which have all become household names.

According to the Creative Industries Innovation Centre, the major issue faced by creative studios and agencies today is the lack of a good branding strategy and the failure to develop and deploy a proactive sales approach. The issue also applies to marketing – it is a well-known fact that most design businesses, however genius their advertising concepts for their clients may be, fall short when it comes to their own branding and marketing strategy.
The Design Business Council reports that the Australian design industry still has a bit of growing to do when comparing it to other parts of the world. This doesn't mean that there's nothing going on though.
A brand is not a logo or a tagline. It is not a person or a product. A brand is what an audience thinks and feels about an organisation; the intangible attributes that are its most valuable assets.

We here at Yoke have been holding our breaths for the past six weeks due to our blog post about the tricky world of dating a designer going viral and infecting designer after designer around the world. We reckon the time has come to finally take a deep breath and see what we've learned from the rollercoaster ride we've been on since Valentine's Day.
After the success of the first A Brief Night, we're back with the second event on Thursday 24 April.
With the recent explosion of international craft breweries and home brewing has come a flood of highly creative beer brands. Today, the branding and packaging of beer takes many forms. Some tell wonderfully illustrated and fascinating stories, others take inspiration from the wonders of nature, and then there are those that focus purely on using minimalism at its finest.
So you've nabbed yourself a designer and life is good. You inherently feel more creative and have a newfound confidence wearing glasses. But before you dive headfirst into a world of logos and coffee and deadlines, there are a few quirks you ought to consider when dating designer folk.
We had no idea how our first Brief Night would turn out. We weren't sure how many people would sign up, we didn't know if those who did sign up would actually turn up and we didn't know if those who did turn up would enjoy it.
Trying to describe the duties of an account manager in the creative industry is near impossible. A diverse and engaging position, it can be an exhilarating and fulfilling career for some but a chaotic, stressful nightmare for others.
We caught up with our Managing Director and Mentor Mehdi Qerim to chat about the expansion of Yoke, our collaboration with Golden Eye Media and where he sees Yoke heading.

The right to equal language access in our state courts
For the almost 20 percent of Californians who are not proficient in English, navigating the legal system can be daunting. These residents, who are often immigrants, have trouble following court proceedings without significant language assistance. While state law only requires interpreter and language services for criminal cases, immigrants are on their own for civil actions and proceedings.
California Assemblyman Ed Chau (D-Alhambra) introduced in February Assembly Bill 1127, legislation that would establish a task force of language experts to develop a plan to provide interpreter services in every court statewide. This Language-Access Plan is critical, especially in communities with a large Hispanic and Asian American population such as Alhambra and the Los Angeles area.
In a California Judicial Council study of language and interpreter use in state courts between 2004-2008, interpreters translated in 147 languages and almost half of these services occurred in the Los Angeles area. Spanish and Mandarin court services were the only two languages to significantly increase statewide during the five-year study, by 89 and 11 percent respectively. Interpretation needs for Asian Americans will continue to increase as the group does — it's the fastest growing population in the United States according to the Pew Research Center.
One Alhambra resident feels that a lack of language access in courts stops immigrants from fighting for their rights. "Many first-generation immigrants are small business owners in their communities. Oftentimes, they may not have the resources to hire attorneys to represent them and they are afraid to get into any civil dispute due to language barrier," Sunni Sui said. "I have a friend who owns a mom-and-pop hair salon and spent about $5,000 on roof repair, but the contractor didn't really fix the roof. She wanted to go to civil court to get the repair money back, but couldn't do due to language. She felt very mad and helpless."
Immigrants also face a cultural barrier in many courts and law enforcement agencies. An interpreter can explain not only what is said in court or written on documents but also how American courts work. This is helpful to Chinese immigrants in particular. In China, only cases dealing with guilty parties go to court, so for many Chinese immigrants court is a dire last resort, not a place of mediation.
This cultural interpretation is just as important as language interpretation, according to court and law enforcement interpreter Lei Zhang. This service should be provided in all of California's courts. "When Chinese people find someone who can speak their language in a distressing situation, they usually want to tell you everything at once," Zhang said.
Assembly Bill 1127 was amended Tuesday in the California State Senate to include a pilot program at three courts to test the cost and procedure of a statewide Language-Access Plan. The trial would cost $6 million and be funded by money that was already allocated for interpreter services and review.
"Providing appropriate language services so that every Californian can fully understand and participate in our judicial proceedings is essential to ensuring full and fair access to justice," said Chau in a June press release. "This bill is a step towards bringing California into compliance with federal civil rights laws and reflects the state's concerted efforts to address language access issues in our courts."
The bill is scheduled for a third reading, and if passed will return to the State Assembly and then sent to Governor Jerry Brown. If the governor signs the bill into law, we can start to provide Californians with an explicitly recognized right to equal access to the courts regardless of language proficiency.

"An interpreter can explain not only what is said in court or written on documents but also how American courts work."
This is against the interpreter code of ethics. A certified court interpreter is not there to "explain how American courts work."
Court interpreters do not "explain" what is being said. They interpret what is said from one language to another. Period. We are not (I've worked as a court interpreter for over 30 years) advocates for either side. We are language facilitators.
Many native English-speaking Americans don't understand how the American courts work either and are not afforded "cultural" interpreters. Most English speakers also have a difficult time following court proceedings.
Glad you pointed this out Gregg. This really boils down to individual responsibility and this bill does nothing but strip it away.
Why must the state and taxpayers be burdened by these 20%? What happened to the individual's responsibility to understand the language of their own country's legal system. Isn't there a thing called "learning" or "studying" the English language? For the lady who lost money on the roof repair, didn't she have no friends or familty to help assist her what-so-ever? Yeah, people who can't understand English need help, but why is the government automatically stuck with the responsibility? What happened to individual RESPONSIBILITY, family, and friends? Providing interpreter services IN EVERY COURT STATEWIDE is a path down the wrong direction...

KTLA News
7:33 AM EST, January 14, 2011
LOS ANGELES ( KTLA) -- Actor Peter Fonda made a grim discovery Wednesday when he spotted a man's body inside a parked car.
Fonda called 911 Wednesday afternoon to report the death, according to Sgt. Carlton Cook at the West Los Angeles Community Police Station.
Fonda was driving along Sunset Boulevard in the Pacific Palisades area when he spotted a man slumped over in the front seat of a parked car.
Police say the 70-year-old "Easy Rider" actor is not a suspect.
The cause of the man's death was not released.
TMZ is reporting that the man committed suicide and may have been dead inside the car for 3 days.
Fonda is best known for his role in the 1969 film "Easy Rider" as sex-and-drugs loving biker Captain America.

A Tribute To Our MilitarySep 11, 2011 -- 8:46am
A Military Tribute
Now that I lay me down for some sleep
My family's secure as I take a quick peek.
With all of my heart I must give my thanks
to all those in uniform - regardless of rank.
Each time that they're seen my heart sure does swell,
They serve our great country and serve it so well!
Freedom's not cheap, it sure isn't free...
If it wasn't for them, then where would we be?
They give us their all, and do what they must,
with God they do live, and in God they do trust.
So as I lay down and rest my tired eyes
our freedom still rings, and our flag - it still flies!
Safe is my family, my country, my home,
Because of our Military it must surely be known!
My very last prayer in the deep of the night:
"God bless them & keep them strong for their fight."

Rams may not be interested in Chris Johnson
Chris Johnson may have a history with St. Louis Rams head coach Jeff Fisher, but the Rams aren't expected to pursue the running back once he's officially available, according to the St. Louis Dispatch's Jim Thomas.
Johnson was drafted by the Titans when Fisher was still the team's head coach, and the two spent three seasons together in Tennessee before Fisher was fired by the organization. During those three seasons, Johnson ran for 4,598 yards.
But the Rams aren't interested in Johnson for multiple reasons.
First, Johnson's price tag will likely be out of the Rams' range. Second, Johnson is coming off the worst season of his career. Also, Johnson will turn 29 during the season, and he's coming off knee surgery.
Biggest key re: Chris Johnson is health. Tore meniscus Wk 3, played thru it, knee scope late Jan, started running only about 2 wks ago. #nyj—
Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) April 04, 2014
The Jets and Falcons are expected to be the primary suitors for Johnson. While the Jets were in discussions to possibly trade for Johnson, the organization has yet to contact him.
Jets GM John Idzik has not reached out to Chris Johnson's camp yet, I'm told. However, #NYJ is interested in CJ2K at the right price.—
Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) April 05, 2014
Just because the Jets have yet to contact Johnson, it doesn't mean the team isn't interested. In fact, Johnson has yet to be officially released by the Titans.
Chris Johnson wasn't "officially" released by #Titans on Friday. Not on NFL Transactions. So he can't sign elsewhere until that happens—
Jim Wyatt (@jwyattsports) April 05, 2014
Note: Chris Johnson wasn't on the @NFL's transaction wire yesterday. Release should be official Monday at 4. Until then, no talks with teams—
Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) April 05, 2014
Once Johnson hits the open market, the Jets are still considered the favorite to sign the running back.
The Jets have more than $26 million of cap room, giving them the best chance to sign Chris Johnson. The Giants have only $4.2 million.—

Time magazine ran an interesting article andit stated that having a favorite child is hard wired into us. For genetic survivalit goes on to say the firstborn and the youngest are usually favored fordifferent reasons. The firstborn is better fed, and since they are the first,they spend more time with mom and dad and are the prodigy of the parents. Thebaby is protected. Moms especially attach more to the youngest, while dads havea tendency to attach to the eldest. Where does that leave all the other kids inbetween?
Adults who grow up being the un-favored childsuffer. Sometimes they understand and find their specialness within the family,but for those who don't, they may grow up feeling less than, ostracized andstruggle with more conflict within their family of origin. Clients I see whowere not the favored child and whose parents openly favored one of theirsiblings struggle with leftover resentment and rebellion, not only at theirparents, but at their siblings as well.
When I ask couples if they have a favoritechild, the majority of them will say no. This occurs even though some child intheir family feels that mom and dad like one of their siblings better. Thechild can give numerous accounts of when they felt left out or did not feel asimportant as their siblings, but the parents will usually deny the allegationand remark that their child is not remembering the situation or incidentcorrectly. They may say things such as, "You're too sensitive, or you're notremembering the times you did get special attention." However, when a siblingis not favored it is more than a couple of unfortunate situations. It is afeeling and they are usually correct in their assessment.
CNN's Anderson Cooper talked about theconsequences of parents who favor one child over another. He asked parents toconsider these five questions and to answer them honestly to determine if theyhad a favorite child.
1) Do you have more photos of one child thanyou do of the others?
2) Are you more involved with one child'sextra-curricular activities?
3) Did you spend the same amount of money oneach child's birthday or Christmas gifts?
4) Do you contribute the same to each child'scollege funds?
5) Do you find one child much easier to bearound than the others?
Parents who do have favorite children or useone of their children to motivate their other children end up with children whofeel less than. Below are four possible negative effects the un-favored childmay feel.
Parenting is tough, and every parent I knowstruggles with having enough time for their work, their partner and theirchildren. Taking time with each child atleast once a week is a wonderful way to make kids feel special. When kids havespecial interests engage with their interest, even if you aren't interested init. Focusing on what makes each of your children special, and never comparingyour children, will help ensure your kids grow up feeling loved by you and eachother. –Mary Jo Rapini

WSB-TV story on GLSP's Henry County school discrimination case
WSB Television aired a story about GLSP's complaint of racial discrimination against a 12-year-old African American girl who was threatened with expulsion and criminal charges because she wrote the word "Hi" on a locker room wall. The white student who was with her was not punished nearly as severely. The complaint to the federal Office of Civil Rights claims that there is a pattern of such disciplinary discrimination in Henry County.

GLSP's Hodson Award gets statewide press
Newspapers around the state have written stories about Georgia Legal Services Program winning the American Bar Association's Hodson Award for Public Service. Below are links to some of the articles:

The Henry County Herald, July 23, 2014

GLSP, State Bar campaign exceeds goal
GLSP's recent campaign through the State Bar of Georgia has surpassed its fundraising goal by netting $554,299.
"We are so pleased to see growing support among the private bar," said Executive Director Phyllis Holmen.
Donations to the State Bar "And Justice for All" campaign come from individual lawyers around the state who either write individual checks or opt in to a GLSP donation through their State Bar dues payment. The funds were presented to Holmen by State Bar President Charles Ruffin at the Bar convention in Amelia Island, Florida in June.
"It is gratifying to see lawyers across the state write checks to support civil legal services for the poor," said Holmen. The Bar campaign represents less than five percent of GLSP's total budget, but is the way the organization connects with Georgia lawyers who believe in supporting civil legal aid. Many state lawyers also support GLSP by volunteering to represent low-income clients pro bono.
Most of GLSP's funding comes from grants from the Legal Services Corporation, which is funded by Congress and supports legal aid organizations across the country. Other GLSP funding comes from contracts through the Older Americans Act, as well as grants from the Judicial Council of Georgia, the Georgia Bar Foundation, the State Bar of Georgia Pro Bono Project, the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council, the Georgia Legal Services Foundation, the National Council on Aging, various fundraising events and others.
Fund to support GLSP fellows from Emory Law
As former GLSP board President Aaron Buchsbaum neared the end of his life, his family sought ways to honor the institutions that had meant so much to him. Georgia Legal Services Program was one of those institutions. With the establishment of the Aaron L. Buchsbaum Fellowship Fund, based on a gift of $650,000 from Buchsbaum and his wife Esther, a recent Emory Law graduate will be chosen every other year to receive funding to work as a fellow at GLSP for a year.

GLSP wins major ABA award for public service
Contact: Susan Wells, Public Information Specialist
firstname.lastname@example.com or cell: 404 558-0372
Georgia Legal Services Program has won major recognition from the American Bar Association in the form of the Hodson Award for Public Service for 2014.
Named in honor of the distinguished public service career of the late Major General Kenneth J. Hodson, a former Judge Advocate General of the U.S. Army and founder of the ABA's Government and Public Sector Lawyers Division, the Hodson Award recognizes "sustained, outstanding performance for a specific and extraordinary service by a government or public sector law office."
"The work ethic, accomplishments and dedication of the staff of the Georgia Legal Services Program are truly an inspiration to other public lawyers across the country," said Alexander W. Purdue, chair of the American Bar Association, as he announced the award.
In the nomination letter, a committee of prominent Georgia lawyers wrote:
"For over 40 years, GLSP attorneys and paralegals have reached out to clients in rural areas, small towns and even counties in Georgia where there are no other lawyers at all. The firm is innovative, strategic, and effective in addressing critical civil legal problems. In this nomination, you will read about the efforts of GLSP to address the recession-driven legal needs of their clients, even in the face of declining resources with which to do so. We believe the sustained, extraordinary services by GLSP make it highly deserving of the Hodson Award for 2014."
That committee includes R. William Ide III, a partner in McKenna Long & Aldridge law firm, a past president of the ABA and one of the founders of GLSP. It also includes The Honorable Hugh Thompson, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Georgia.
The award will be presented at the American Bar Association's Annual Meeting in Boston at the Government and Public Sector Lawyers Division's awards reception on Friday, August 8th.
New GLSP Board President Damon Elmore biking across Georgia for the cause

Lawyer Biking in All 159 of Georgia's Counties for Legal Services
Damon Elmore is bicycling in all 159 of the state's counties to spread the word and raise money for Georgia Legal Services Program
Paul Shea, Daily Report
Two wheels and a cloud of dust: There goes Damon Elmore.
The Moore Sparks partner is spending many weekends this year riding his bike around Georgia—all of Georgia. Elmore, whose practice focuses on labor and employment, is determined to pedal in each of the state's 159 counties. It's for a good cause.
Elmore is risking saddle sores and weary legs to raise awareness and money for the Georgia Legal Services Program, a nonprofit law firm founded in 1971 that offers free legal help to the state's poor in all but the five-county metro Atlanta area. Elmore is a longtime member of GLSP's board of directors.
GLSP has 10 regional offices helping low-income Georgians with civil matters such as domestic violence, housing, education, access to health care, benefits and civil rights issues.
The biking attorney is more than halfway through his journey. He has ridden in 91 counties and, weather permitting, will add as many as four more by this weekend. He rides mostly in county seats, often on 20-mile tours, but has gone as far as 100 miles on multiple-county weekends. The goal is to raise $15,900 by year's end (for 159 counties).
Elmore, who is 42, is peddling as fast as he can on social media, too, using Twitter (@bikeGAcounties) and Instagram (@damonelmore). He is also using www.razoo.com/story/Damon-Bikes-In-Every-Georgia-County for fundraising and messaging.
What gave you the idea for bike-ride fundraisers?
It was a marriage of convenience. Like many, I had been a casual bike rider all my life. It has been within the last two or three years that I have gotten serious about the sport, mainly for the health benefits. What gave me the idea to marry my bike riding and raising money for the Georgia Legal Services Program was some time I spent with a friend who was training for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day. On a very small scale, I thought, I can do that for GLSP.
You are now more than halfway through. How would you characterize the response so far?
It has taken a while for the idea to sink in because I have been more shy about my effort than I should be. However, now that the exposure has grown and more people are talking about it, everyone seems fascinated by the bike portion.
That gives me a chance to introduce the cause, and that's when I see people become enlightened about the broad range of legal services provided for a large part of our state's population. That's for lawyers and nonlawyers alike.
What are you seeing as the biggest needs of GLSP clients in 2014?
GLSP's clients have legal problems that impact their very basic needs, such as wages, or sometimes the very basic benefits of our country's safety net: keeping a roof over their heads, getting access to medical care and getting a good education for their kids.
Seniors are being exploited by unscrupulous creditors and are also getting caught in the red tape surrounding old-age benefits. We're working to help clients who don't speak English well. It shouldn't take a lawyer to get Medicaid, or to keep your child in school, but often it does.
What are people along your routes telling you?
People are surprised at the breadth of services that GLSP provides and what civil legal services for the poor really means. In talking to people along the way, I hear time and again: "We need help. People here need help."
Often, people don't see these every-day problems as legal ones, so it's always great to connect with them, talk to them and educate them a little about why I ride, both for myself and GLSP.
What are the challenges of meeting those needs?
The increasing number of poor people in the state and lack of enough lawyers to address their critical problems. Clients in very rural parts of the state often are without transportation or money for phone minutes to contact a lawyer for help. Sometimes the legal issues are complex. And there are few alternative sources of help for poor people.
Don't get me wrong, there are tons of Georgia lawyers who are generous with their time and support of pro bono efforts. Even with all of their support and the heavy load our staff attorneys manage, there is always more [need].
How are lawyers in regional GLSP offices reacting to your visits?
Like everyone else, they are somewhat fascinated by the cycling component. Beyond that, we know that the staff attorneys are grateful for the support provided as a member of the board of directors, and the awareness we are trying to bring to their work.
Aside from social media, how are you publicizing your rides before going to specific counties?
A phone call to the chambers of commerce, visitors/tourist centers or similar entities. We were able to generate a bit of buzz with that effort in Baldwin, Laurens and Talbot counties. We'll also send a notice or mini-press release to the local paper. If one is in the area, I will give a heads-up to local bike shops.
Whether spontaneous or planned, I have always found a coffee or snack shop where a conversation is started up about the biking and, then, we launch into our story.
Are you riding with attorneys from the regional offices?
We try and ride with any that will join and extend an open invitation. This is even for the casual, new rider or person looking to get a little exercise. Attorneys and friends of GLSP have joined us on rides in Augusta (Richmond County), in Greene County and along the Silver Comet Trail through Polk and Paulding. From time to time we will get interest in some of the poorer areas from children on their bikes that want to race.
You are taking photographs and telling stories about your trip on a Web page. How has that been received?
I've really enjoyed taking photos and researching the counties where I ride and adding information about that in the captions and tweets. Using social media to get the word out about my efforts is a fun and rewarding component.
It's been well received by the cycling and legal community in Georgia, as well as folks that just happen upon my Instagram feed. In a sense, I think many of those pictures of #thingsseencycling tell more about our story.
Who has helped you with this project?
The support and suggestions have been overwhelming. The leadership team and members of the board with Georgia Legal Services have made sure we are accurate with our message. Josh Bell from Whigham, Ga., has been a huge support and one of our largest donors to date. Our friends at Loose Nuts Bike Shop in Grant Park have been kind with technical advice and keeping our equipment up-to-date.
But Sarah Coole (State Bar of Georgia) has been the biggest help—willing to give her thoughts on our press releases and social media notices. She has also been kind enough to snap a picture or two.
If you had the money in hand today, what would you do with the $15,900?
We'd be sure to spread it out and around the counties and potential clients we serve. What's really important about this initiative is being out there, in every county in Georgia, connecting with a huge range of people and getting the word out about GLSP. The $15,900 could help supplement the salary for an attorney in one of our regional offices where we could help our neighbors, particularly in those middle regions.

Letter: NSA leaker broke cardinal rule, deserves punishment fit for traitors
Buford E. McBee, Stuart
Letter: NSA leaker broke cardinal rule, deserves punishment fit for traitors
Michael Goforth's column on NSA leaks totally confuses me. How in the world could he as a former naval officer even indicate that Edward Snowden's actions are anything but treason?
Mr. Goforth, I would like you to think back to your time in the Navy, in your position of authority. What actions would you have taken if one of your personnel had lost or misplaced a single page of a classified document while making one of the updating changes?
In the military I had access to classified documents. I took an oath — period. I would have given my life keeping those documents safe. I'm 70 and to this day I don't talk about what I've seen or the equipment to which I had access. I've kept my oath and will until I die.
Snowden took that same oath. If he didn't like what was going on, he had an obligation to quit his position, but at all cost keep his mouth shut.
I can only hope that he is captured, tried and put to death.

Digital Cinema Distribution Coalition Flips the Switch on Theatrical Satellite Service
The Digital Cinema Distribution Coalition, a digital initiative founded by the nation's largest theater chains, AMC, Regal and Cinemark, alongside Warner Bros. and Universal, officially has flipped the switch on the industry's first-ever digital theatrical delivery service; whereby, films and other content will be delivered to theaters via satellite.
Announced in March, DCDC -- which partners with the remaining major studios including Liongate, as well as exhibs Southern Theaters and National Amusements -- has a theatrical footprint reaching 1,200 theaters totaling approximately 17,000 screens.
The org made the announcement of the system's kick-off Wednesday.
Also part of the news was the appointment of Randolph Blotky as CEO of the digital initiative. Blotky previously served as the principal consultant for DCDC.
"This is a truly historic moment," Blotky said in a statement. "DCDC represents the culmination of years of incredibly complex work, as well as the extraordinary contributions of so many visionary executives throughout the film and technology industries.
"They've succeeded in creating a groundbreaking venture that, simply put, turns the digital content distribution economic model on its head," Blotky added.
DCDC is a network of satellites capable of distributing feature, promotional, pre-show and live content via digital distribution technologies. Its implementation will eliminate the need for a vast amount of the physical discs (ergo reducing costs) that are still shipped to digital-capable theaters, the standard practice since the conversion wave began in 2007.
DCDC plans to distribute 31 feature films by the end of the year. It will add more locations and screens to its network throughout 2014.

This is cool.
On Friday, Tim Marchman of Deadspin posted a video with footage of the 1919 World Series between the Cincinnati Reds and the team that will forever be remembered as the Chicago Black Sox—eight members of which were eventually banned for life from baseball after accepting money in exchange for throwing the series.
This is not the first-ever footage of the 1919 series, as Marchman notes, but is undoubtedly the best that currently exists. Also on Friday, Jacob Pomrenke of the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) wrote a post with a little more background on where the footage is from and how it came into existence.
While the Reds (and their World Series "victory") are often an afterthought in any discussion of the Black Sox Scandal, this video does provide some incredible panoramic and aerial shots from Game 1 of the series at the old Redland Field in Cincinnati (re-named Crosley Field in 1934), starting at the 1:37 mark and running through the end of the video.

"Wonderful tale with great characters. loved it"
I love a story that has good characters and this certianly has them. These men have very hard edges and do as they please. Even though you know what they do is wrong, you still root for them. The setting in the gold rush of California is perfect and in the end provides a chance for the Sisters Brothers to escape the life that they both know is wrong.
He does a wonderful job bringing out the characters from the book. Yes, I feel as if I know the Sister Brothers. The other characters in this story are also portrayed very well by John Pruden.
I felt guilty for laughing and then for wanting the Sisters Brothers to succeed. The story protrays a realistic view of the California Gold rush and the opportunist feeding off it.
I enjoyed the Audio book and would reccomend it highly.
"A peculiarity"
Yes, it's a great story.
The writing style and vernacular of the day was most intriguing to me. John Pruden was excellent as well.
"A Winner"
7 on a scale of 1 to 10.
Original and fun. Not too heavy.
Like all great readers, he adds another dimension to the reading experience.
I like animals and was worried about the comments regarding the treatment of them in the book. The horse's experience was sad, but his mistreatment was a result of ignorance and not sadism. That made all the difference for me.
"fun listen!"
I'm not generally a fan of Westerns, but I do like different and quirky and "The Sisters Brothers" is both. It might be a little light on plot at times, but it's still enjoyable because of the language (great dialogue!) and all the odd/funny things that happen and Eli's philosophical thoughts. I also liked the relationship between Eli and Charlie...it was pretty deep and touching. They are both likeable characters even though Charlie doesn't have as many morals as Eli.
The biggest problem I had with the book was the two intermissions. I wasn't sure what they meant (or if they were supposed to mean anything).
Good, unique, fun story. The reader also did a good job and was well-matched to the story.
"I tried to love it"
The only thing holding this novel back is the language. I like the premise, its the reason I downloaded it, but everyone speaks like western robots whose dialog was translated by someone who despises contractions. It feels stilted and disingenuous. Also, no one swears. I am not a historian, nor do I pretend to be, but I'm reasonably certain the type of men who they kill or nearly kill in the wild west might be inclined to drop an F bomb. I point this out only to demonstrate how the characters feel wooden and forced.
I listened to the whole thing because I wanted to know where the story was going. In the end, I was pretty dissatisfied. I kept waiting to get sucked in and when the book ended, I was still waiting.
I adore audiobooks. I've listened to hundreds. When a narrator and author are perfect for eachother, its magical. This is not a case of a bad reader. John Pruden has a nice voice. He simply is unable to breath life into limp dialog.
I don't recommend this book.
"Fantastic story, narrators voice was a detraction"
This is a inventive and interesting story about two brothers who are hired guns in the "wild west" during the time of the California Gold rush. The story is told by Eli Sisters an overweight, thoughtful, loyal, killer. While some of the relationships and conversations may be unbelievable in the context of the story, one cannot help but be drawn to Eli and his musings. Eli, however, can also be construed as annoying and whining. Unfortunately, the narrators' voice reinforced this interpretation of Eli. I finally gave up on listening, and got a print copy of the book. Then I was able to forgive Eli his flaws and enjoy the story.
"Great Listen if you like Amoral Charactors"
Yes, but this is almost always the case with a great narrator
Dexter series as one begins to like the character(s) in spite of their distorted sense of morality. Of Mice and Men as you have two "brother-types" caring for each other despite the flaws
This is my first Pruden listen but would certainly like to hear more
No extreme reactions but enjoyed it from beginning to end
Great Character developments. Story was well paced and kept my interest.
"Just couldn't get through this one!"
This story just did not keep my interest-in print or on audio!
If I found the subject of another of his books more interesting, I would give him another try.
I did think that the narrator was a good choice for this story, I just didn't like the story!
"Odd, violent, unhappy book - with great narration."
The misery. Everyone, all the time.
No, I'm sorry. Not my preferred style of read.
"Dialogue horrible narrator boring"
I'm sorry but this was just bad.
One of the few books I just couldn't listen to.
I don't know who did the positive reviews but this is just
not worth your time or your dime

FIRST PHOTOS - Angelina Jolie Makes Surprise Appearance At Disney D23 Convention
Posted on Sat Aug 10th, 2013 4:01pm PDT By X17 Staff
Angelina Jolie made at appearance that Disney D23 Expo Saturday, in Anaheim. The actress took the stage in support of her upcoming film Maleficent, the untold story of Disney's most iconic villain from the 1959 classic Sleeping Beauty.
Jolie spoke to fans in the audience about the horns she wore while shooting the film in London last year, saying: "People with little kids would visit set, and I would think, 'I'm a Disney character. And I would go over to the children, and they'd scream and run off. One little kid even said, 'Mommy, please tell the mean witch to stop talking to me.' I guess we did a good job."
Jolie and fiance Brad Pitt's daughter Vivienne played a bit part in the film, Young Aurora. The mother-of-six spoke about the experience: "Vivienne was the only 4-year-old who wouldn't scream. She and I got to be part of it together."
Jolie previewed some clips for the crowd (stay tuned, we're trying to find those and bring them to you) and told fans of her experience working with Walt Disney Studios: "It feels very special to be a part of this family."
Check out our HUGE gallery of photos of the magnificent, Maleficent Angelina Jolie at D23, below ...

TOKYO--Japan and India agreed Wednesday to deepen bilateral ties by strengthening their economic and defense cooperation and reopen talks for a nuclear energy agreement.
"We were able to confirm once again the development made through our annual summit meeting on our strategic and global partnership," Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said in a joint press conference after the meeting between the two nations during the last leg of a four-day visit by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
"India and Japan are natural and indispensable partners in advancing prosperity in our two countries and for a peaceful stable cooperative and prosperous future for our Asia Pacific and Indian Ocean regions," Mr. Singh said, adding that the two nations place "particular importance on intensifying political dialogue and strategic consultations and progressively strengthening defense relations."
The two countries agreed to resume nuclear energy negotiations that would allow Japanese companies to export nuclear reactors and technology to India. Negotiations were launched in 2010 but have been on hold since the Fukushima nuclear accident in March 2011.
The acceleration of talks comes less than a month after the pro-nuclear power Mr. Abe signed atomic power treaties with Turkey and United Arab Emirates, the first such move since the Fukushima disaster.
Japanese nuclear power builders are increasingly looking to export their reactors, as domestic utilities have kept reactors offline and put off plans for any new construction.
Hitachi Ltd. (6501.TO), for example, is looking more closely at foreign markets.
With its sales in the atomic power sector falling by a third since the Fukushima accident, India "would be a major focus of business if regulatory clearance is given by the government," a spokesman for the Japanese electronics conglomerate said.
Its U.S.-based international nuclear business joint venture with GE, GE-Hitachi Nuclear Energy, has been active in India since 2008 when the U.S. and India signed an agreement on non-military nuclear cooperation.
Toshiba Corp. (6502.TO) and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. (7011.TO) are more reticent, however, about ramping up their businesses with India.
"We are hoping to see a Japan-India nuclear agreement and necessary legislation so that we would be able to market (nuclear power plants) to meet any demand," a Toshiba spokesman said in an email.
While Mitsubishi Heavy is hoping to set up nuclear plant businesses in India based on demand, the fact that India is not a signatory of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons could be an issue, a spokesman said.
The 45-nation Nuclear Suppliers Group, an international nuclear commerce regulatory body which Japan is a member of, granted India a special waiver in 2008 allowing it to engage in civilian nuclear trade despite its non-signatory status in the NPT and trade with the U.S.
But critics have pointed to India's waiver as a hollowing out of the NPT.
Japan's top government spokesman Yoshihide Suga said Wednesday said that any nuclear cooperation would take place with India's pledging its peaceful use. Ensuring the limit to civilian use will be discussed in future negotiations, Mr. Suga said.
The two countries also are working together in other infrastructure projects, including the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor--a $90 billion, 930-mile railway project that also includes airports, freeways, ports and a power plant.
Mr. Abe's push to sell Japan's shinkansen bullet trains was met with the agreement for a joint-feasibility study for its Mumbai-Ahmedabad route.
"Prime Minister Singh noted Japan's interest in supporting the introduction of high speed railway system in India," the joint statement noted, adding that he "appreciated Japan's high level of expertise in designing and implementing High Speed Railway (shinkansen) systems."
Japan also officially signed off on the Y71 billion yen loan to build a metro line in Mumbai.

The Conference Board of Canada says short and long-term expectations for housing starts in the Calgary region are negative.
Most Albertans broadly agree that society has a responsibility to take care of its vulnerable and needy, be it through not-for-profit organizations, charities, individual actions or government programs.
A low vacancy rate combined with a lack of progress on legalizing secondary suites is making it difficult for Calgary post-secondary students to find safe, affordable rental accommodation, say student leaders. "Calgary is an expensive city and it's extremely hard for young people to find affordable housing," said Erik Queenan, president of the Students' Association of Mount Royal University.
A stylish townhome development in southeast Calgary gave Nick Ye and girlfriend Jennifer Lam their first glimpse of what developer Avi Urban could create.
Buyers looking for luxurious, single-level living at a condo development in the southwest are singing the praises of Overture.
The project takes an innovative approach to townhome design, simplifying the buying process.
Whether it's polishing off an unfinished work assignment, cramming for an exam or just browsing Facebook, everyone has a favourite place to tuck away.
Does the editorial board or Derek Fildebrandt realize that the housing scenario they are implying is one that segregates our society into wealthy enclaves and poor ghettos? Is that really the target society we want?
There was not a lot of golf last weekend for Bernie Bayer and Paul McCloy, who as the owners and senior partners of Taurus Property Group, were busy helping general manager Nancy Guillet and the rest of the staff move to new offices.
It's a no-brainer, and it should have been done long ago. Provincial landlord-tenant legislation must be changed so that rich renters can be kicked out of the city's public housing complexes.
A rezoning application by a local developer seeking to build a bottle depot in a southeast neighbourhood has rankled residents who fear the operation will lead to increased traffic, noxious odours and bottlepickers roaming the streets. "There's not one person I've talked to who would want a bottle depot in their neighbourhood," said Terri Guedo, a Walden resident opposed to the bottle depot.
Live in Edmonton long enough and you can likely recite a bunch of quirky facts that make Lac Ste. Anne and area notable.
Muskoking -- it's a new verb coined by the creative types at Brookfield Residential to set the tone for its latest collection of townhomes.
Desirae Bowlby and Alex Presse are discovering the upside to a scenic town west of Calgary limits. Cochrane offers the benefits of living in a smaller centre while being close to big city amenities and having an extensive path system -- and, of course, the chance to launch off a ridge and glide through the air.
Move-up home buyers have two new reasons to explore a popular community in northwest Calgary.
Cardel Homes is moving ahead slowly, but surely, with its residential vision for Shawnee Park, being developed on former golf course land in southwest Calgary.
CALGARY - Investor confidence in the future of Calgary's economy is on the rise with the city's commercial real estate market feeling the impact in the first half of this year, says a new report by Avison Young. The report said total dollar volume in commercial real estate transactions over $2 million was $1.22 billion up until the end of June. For the same period last year, the dollar volume was slightly higher at $1.32 billion.
CALGARY - Calgary's homebuilding industry is on pace to register its busiest year since 2006 while at the same time meeting the challenges of a labour shortage in the city. Wayne Copeland, president of the Canadian Home Builders Association-Calgary Region, said that despite the high level of activity, combined with a current labour shortage, the industry is responding well to the increased housing demand.
When a church is put up for sale, its steeple still points to heaven but it also spurs memories of weddings, baptisms and really good lasagna.

Popular Science visits a goo hawker at CES 2012. (Via Salon)
A fun thing to do at CES: wrap orange goo around your finger and whack it with a mallet
28 Responses to "A fun thing to do at CES: wrap orange goo around your finger and whack it with a mallet"
Think they have that backwards, I would assume you want the material to go soft in an impact to absorb the shock. It's the sharp blow that shatters screens, not soft ones.
That said, getting a handful of the stuff as a desk toy would be pretty awesome.
You're right that a sharp blow would be transmitted through a hard cover. But a soft cover is obviously no good unless it's very thick – the blow isn't transmitted, but the mallet doesn't get stopped.
I think the trick is that the material hardens locally around the impact site and diffuses the energy into the surrounding soft parts.
Seems like a good idea. I wonder what it's made of. Is it another petroleum by-product?
Chemistry: 99.9% petrochemical.
It's corn starch and water.
isnt this just silly putty?
To the nth degree, perhaps.
I have a pound of orange silly putty that looks pretty much the same.
Silly putty will shatter if you hit it hard enough with a hammer.
One way to look at it is that in a very short time-span it behaves like a solid. A very quick hammer strike. Over longer time-span it behaves more like a liquid. Where it oozes and you can easily stretch it slowly.
body armor?
It would seem to make sense as an underlayer for some kind of segmented, hardened shell.
As envisioned by John Brunner in his 1968 novel, "Stand on Zanzibar".
Looks like a starch and water mixture reaction. Perhaps it's got a third ingrediant in it?
Snake Oil?
Neat. A non-nutonian phone case!
I like the little touch that they give them both the same colour to imply they're essentially the same, yet one's a solid and one's a liquid (Or non-Newtonian fluid) so they'll have completely different properties.
Agreed. Besides that phone case is how thick exactly? Even turning into a more "solid" solid there isn't very much material to absorb an impact. I certainly think it be a fine and dandy phone protector, but I doubt it be much better than other things on the market.
I had a look at their other products and they make motorcycle gear, knee-pads for construction workers etc. There's a huge market for something like this. Very interesting. Soon, this will be bullet proof. I wonder how much it weighs.
Perhaps it's a way of demonstrating the underlying properties of the material without a long, complicated (and trade-secret revealing) explanation of the actual product?
I've been hawking up goo all morning. Not sure if I'd want to hit it with a hammer.
Repulsion Gel!
Hogwash! If you look closely, that's not his real finger that he's wailin' on.
I can tell by the pixels!
I'd like to see him wrap his finger in the thiner material that he says is actually in the phone case and hit it with the same hammer……..
http://www.d3o.com/ is the link to the company that makes the 'goo' you are seeing in this video
So, is the legitimate? Or is the business plan is something like, "Find non-newtonian putty, make it orange. Take generic phone protectors, add trace amounts of putty, make them orange. Make infomercial style claims about their similar properties, and sell a bunch before people look too closely"
I totally *smashed* the competition a few years ago in a neighborhood egg-drop contest by suspending the egg in a baggie in the middle of some oobleck (corn starch & water). It escaped perfectly unscathed.
Unfortunately about half of peoples' eggs survived intact too, they weren't dropped from very high, and parachutes etc. were allowed. So about half of us smashed the competition in a dozen-way tie for first place. But I was pretty sure mine was the awesomest. As did everyone else, probably.
This case won't protect the phone from the sudden deceleration that it is still subject to. I imagine that this could cause internal damage too
