Covanta Niagara LP submits application for assistance
BY: Metro Source Staff | December 16, 2012
The Niagara County Industrial Development Agency Wednesday received applications for assistance from Covanta Niagara L.P., a major economic development projects in the city of Niagara Falls.
The application will be voted on at the January board meeting after public comment sessions are held.
Covanta Niagara L.P. plans to invest $30.1 million at its Niagara Falls facility on 56th Street on various capital investment projects to enhance the company's steam operations capacity.
The capital investments include funding of $5 million to build a new steam line; $10.5 million capital investment to expand steam operations; $9 million to build a new rail transfer facility; and, $5.6 million to build a new special waste handling facility.
Covanta Niagara L.P. employs 86 workers and once the investment projects are completed the company will add 23 new jobs increasing its workforce to 109 with a total annual payroll of approximately $10.9 million.
The projects also will create 160 construction jobs.
"The Covanta project is the proverbial sweet spot for our agency in that it is a clean energy company, the project is located in the City of Niagara Falls and perhaps just as important, the expansion will remediate a brownfield site," said Henry M. Sloma Chairman of the Niagara County Industrial Development Agency. "It is important to note that this multi-million investment will support the operations of Greenpac which also benefited from the support of our agency. We are proud of the work of our board in creating and retaining jobs and the significant capital investment being made in the city of Niagara Falls."
Covanta Niagara, L.P. is part of Covanta Energy, an international company that utilizes state of the art technology to manage facilities that generate energy from waste.
Covanta Niagara L.P. provides process steam for several companies in Niagara Falls that provide hundreds of jobs. The need for the expansion is the result of the construction and operations of the Greenpac paper mill facility.
The estimated cost benefit analysis calculates that the project will have an annual positive economic impact of approximately $37.8 million in Niagara County. Covanta Niagara L.P. is seeking a 15-year PILOT, sales tax abatements and a mortgage recording tax abatement.

Corporate Manager Interview (Negative Experience; Average Interview)
I applied through an employee referral and the process took 3 months - interviewed at DynCorp International in April 2012.
Interview Details I had two phone interviews followed by several weeks without hearing anything. I was contacted for an onsite interview at their corporate headquarters which was held on April of 2012. I was told by the recruiter that I did very well and they had one internal candidate to interview and they would let me know. I heard nothing for several weeks and finally contacted the recruiter who said the position was on hold. During this time I submitted my expense report for my meals and some other travel-related expenses. After resubmitting my expenses two more times over four months I gave up and never received my reimbursement. Thankfully air, hotel and car were direct billed. I also never heard back about the position. I did see it reposted several months later. I was disappointed that I never heard from the hiring manager again which I would expect if the position was on hold, or get an official rejection not to mention reimbursement. This spoke volumes as to the type of company DynCorp might be.

Realizing Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream starts at home.
"If you want to know where the solution rests, fill in your name, your address," Cos Edwards, executive director of WorkSource Columbia Basin, told an audience of 250 at a Monday ceremony honoring the slain civil rights leader.
Problems with discrimination haven't been solved just because a black man now lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Edwards told the gathering at Columbia Basin College in Pasco.
So instead of looking to the president for answers, he said he looks to an address on Peyote Drive in Pasco.
"That's where I live," he said.
All ethnic groups need to work together to achieve equality, Edwards continued.
"We are inseparable," he said. "Our plights are contingent on the other."
Edwards also admired King's courage for setting a life course as a civil rights leader, even though King had to know it would likely result in an early death. And he said King's struggles for equality continue.
CBC's annual Spirit Award was presented Monday to Wayne Martin, a retired environmental research scientist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland. He was a member of CBC's board for 10 years and now serves on the state community college board.
Martin said he likes to tell people that "education is the solution." Which begs the question, "To what?"
"You tell me the problem, I'll tell you education is the solution," he said. "I don't care if it's a job problem, a social problem -- an education will solve it."
Martin said he was humbled to receive the award inspired by King.
"I'm just a little grain of sand off of the rock of what he is," he said.
Monday's ceremony played out just how Patty Wilson-Schmidt of Kennewick said she would have designed it. She was inspired by Edwards' speech and has known Martin for 30 years.
"It was awesome," said Wilson-Schmidt, who has been coming to the annual event for at least six years.
The 23rd annual bell-ringing ceremony began in the cold, damp weather near CBC's Martin Luther King Jr. statue, then moved inside the Gjerde Center. The hourlong event ended like a church service, with people joining hands, some reaching across rows, singing along while a choir performed We Shall Overcome.

By Amy Dienta
With our recent addition to the family, life has changed! We can no longer jump in the car and go. With a new baby you need to plan a little bit more.
We recently took a local vacation to CoCo Key Water Resort in Fitchburg, MA. We stayed one night in the attached hotel and had a great time! It was the perfect trip. You do not have to leave the hotel because everything you need is right there.
For breakfast and dinner there is a buffet in Applewoods, the on site restaurant. It's your basic buffet, nothing fancy. Dinner is around $15 and breakfast costs about $12. Kids are free with a paying adult.
The water park has a section for younger kids that's shallow and a larger pool and water slides for the bigger kids. For adults, there is a bar, a hot tub maintained at 80 degrees year round. I also saw a few adults loving the water slides! Or you could take turns napping in the hotel room while one parent takes the kids to the water park.
If you venture past the water park, or on the way, try Tang Dynasty in Leominster, MA. The food was fresh, good and fast! It's right off Route 2.
We had a great trip. My one suggestion is to buy swim diapers before you get there, as they're $5 for one at the park. We purchased a reusable one at Babies R Us for the same price.
What are some of your favorite summer getaways with the little ones?

The following is an announcement from the Citizen's Scholarship Foundation of Wakefield:
The Citizens' Scholarship Foundation of Wakefield, Inc. is pleased to announce that its 21st Annual Trivia Team Challenge will be held this year on Saturday evening, February 23rd, starting at 7 pm , at the Americal Civic Center. Last year's event was a tremendous success. With total of 54 teams competing for the coveted Championship Trophy, it was Wakefield's own Lucy Skeldon and her team called Eponymous that came out on top. Organizers of this year's event are hoping for a similar turnout to support their efforts to provide much needed scholarships for deserving Wakefield students.
The format for the evening's fun will be the same as in past years. Teams of up to four players compete against each other in three 25-question rounds to determine the finalists which will compete in a fourth round to determine 6 trophy winners. A seventh trophy is also awarded to the highest scoring first year team that does not win one of the six placing trophies. Team members sit together as a group to arrive at consensus team answers to questions in such categories as sports, entertainment, history, music, television, geography, literature and odds and ends. Each team captain is responsible for entering his group's responses on an answer sheet which is corrected at the end of each round.
The entry fee for this year's event is a tax-deductible donation of $120 payable to CSF of Wakefield, Inc. All entry fees, along with the proceeds from the cash bar and from the raffle, go directly to the general fund of the organization and are awarded as scholarships in June to Wakefield students. CSF of Wakefield, Inc. , the largest and one of the oldest organizations of its kind in the country, has raised nearly $95,000 for local scholarships from the 20 prior Trivia Team Challenges.
CSF expects that this year's event will be another sellout, so interested teams are encouraged to submit their entry forms early. To obtain more information about the event or to receive an application form, teams can contact Trivia Team Challenge event chairperson Noel Bailey at 207-361-3230 or Roberta DiNitto at the CSF Office at the Americal Civic Center at 781-245-4890. Entry forms can also be downloaded at the CSF website, www.csfofwakefield.org. CSF looks forward to seeing tons of local trivia fans and CSF supporters at their 21st Annual Trivia Team Challenge on Saturday evening February 23rd at the Americal. The Trivia Team Challenge is a unique mid-winter local tradition and one that is always full of challenging questions, great raffles and tons of laughs, all for a most worthy cause.
Please note that as in the past, there will be boxes for collecting donations to the Wakefield Food Pantry.

Days after the Boston bombings, an out of town teen was pulled over on a Texoma highway with a pressure cooker, fertilizer and fireworks all in the car.
It all started when a homeless man called authorities last Friday saying he was stranded on the intersection of Highway 82 and Republican Rd. just west of Holliday. The man said he had taken a ride with 17-year-old Frank Reynolds and they ran out of gas.
Archer County Sheriff Staci Beesinger says, when one of her deputies got there the teenager was acting very strange and seemed to be high. The deputy searched the car. Inside he found K-2 and a pipe but in the trunk he found a pressure cooker, fertilizer, fireworks, electrical connectors and other items that could be components of an explosive device.
Reynolds was arrested and taken to the Archer Co. jail for possession of illegal drugs and paraphernalia. But the sheriff's office was not going to take the other materials found lightly. They called in the FBI to investigate.
FBI Public Affairs Agent Katherine Chaumont says Reynolds told investigators he uses the pressure cooker to grow mushrooms. In fact she released this statement that says:
"Local special agents and a member of the Dallas Critical Incident Response Team conducted an assessment of the items and interviewed the suspect. After the interview and inspection of the items, it was determined that the items were not potential components for a bomb, but instead could be used to cultivate hallucinogenic mushrooms."
Some Texomans are just not buying it.
"I've never heard of anybody growing mushrooms in a pressure cooker so that doesn't sound like a credible story to me," said an Archer City resident.
Another Archer county resident says, "After what happened in Boston I think the entire country is very scared especially now that people seem to be using all kinds of accessible materials to make bombs."
But others stand by the federal agents.
"If they've done an in depth check where they found nothing to be alarmed about then I trust that. The FBI really has our best interest in mind and our safety.>
Reynolds was released from the Archer Co. Jail on Sunday when his parents bailed him out. He is from the Fort Worth area and he was actually listed as a runaway the day of the incident. Reynolds told investigators he was headed to Colorado.

Everyone says that tumblr is the place where everyone is real and on facebook they're fake. Or that you have true friends on tumblr and everyone is so accepting, but everywhere else they aren't.
Fuck that shit. People on tumblr are just as rude if not more rude than people anywhere else on the internet. And they aren't real, the majority of people on tumblr post shit they think OTHER people want to see in order to gain followers. People are afraid to be themselves because they don't want to be judged or unlikable. People hide behind fake pictures and descriptions because they feel they aren't good enough or pretty enough or skinny enough or popular enough. People hide behind anon and talk shit about other people and their opinions on what they post, judging someone they've never met based on the things THEY post on THEIR blog.
The real people will be real, and the fake people will be fake.
And guess what, people will judge regardless of what website it is.♥

HYDROTAC is an environmentally safe, specifically formulated highly effective tackifier. It is diluted with water that serves as a carrier agent and when applied to the ground, air and sunlight become the curing agents. Hydrotac is a tackifier and soil binder that in effect "glues" the hydro seed mixture to the surface of the ground until the germination and root growth occurs. Hydro seeding is, without doubt, the fastest way to create verdant greenery in a dull and vapid landscape. It is also the most reliable and effective procedure for growing flora and grasses for a multitude of soil stabilization, erosion control and re-vegetation projects. The soaring popularity of using Hydrotac lies in the fact that it is a one-step application process that creates a lush green, beautiful carpet of grass.
HYDROTAC allow it to literally hold the grass seed to the surface of the soil while allowing air and water to pass through it in to the ground facilitating the germination of the seed without allowing any negative hydrophobic impact.
HYDROTAC has the ability to penetrate the soil by holding the seed in place for germination. The application rate for hydro seeding is very light (.03-.10 Litres/m²) and will provide for a very light flexible crust which will allow the seed, mulch, fibre and cottons to be "tacked" to the soil -
Hydrotac – Hydro Seeding with with just one application
The exceptional results achieved with the use of Hydrotac are reached without the presence of the components of traditional hydro seeding mixtures, which according to Audubon International have the following negative ecological effects: pollution of ground and surface water, poor stream water quality, degradation or loss of natural areas, health hazards from chemical handling and negative impacts of chemical use on wildlife.
Even though the market is teeming with innovative mulch products that score over traditional mulches, when it comes to hydro seeding, our non-volatile, non-toxic and non-flammable products rise above the others in the field. Apart from the absence of any biological content, our products do not violate the terms of the Water Quality Act and are perfectly safe for vegetation and wildlife. With our products, you are assured of uniform coverage, faster and simpler loading procedures and reduced water demand. All these attributes only add to the productivity of your hydro seeding exercise, whether as part of an erosion control or landscaping project, in golf courses, hill sides, embankments and other uneven areas, or even parks and other recreation zones.
Hydrotac has been used extensively throughout the Golf Course and Hydroseeding Industries with profound success.

ADHD Arts and Crafts: How Can I Organize My Photos?
"I have ADD and am a photographer and a would-be scrapbooker. I have dozens of boxes filled with photos, kept in vaguely chronological order. How should I put them into albums?"
Think about the kinds of scrapbooks you'd like to make. For each scrapbook, set up a clearly labeled box. Then start sorting your photos into the appropriate boxes. Because of your chronological organization, you'll find that you've already got photos grouped together for a few albums - make one with a series you took on a family vacation to the Grand Canyon, for example.
But for most of your photos, you'll need to make decisions. So if Susan has the best smile in one of the group shots you took at the Grand Canyon, put that picture in Susan's scrapbook instead of the family vacation album.
Try to pare down while you're sorting. Throw away any shots that are blurry, unflattering, or just plain dull. If you have photos that are virtually identical, keep the best one and toss the others.

Day 4-5: Grand Canyon National Park
One of the true wonders of the world, Grand Canyon National Park is immense and its sunrise is unforgettable. Over 450km long, 25km wide and over 1.5km deep. Pack your best boots and don't forget your camera for a sunrise/sunset hike along the rim. Watching the sun paint it amber, maroon and red, its breathtaking immensity still blows you away. For the more ambitious take the long hike down Bright Angel Trail to Plateau Point, or choose the "bird's eye" view on a scenic flight. Why not opt for a visit to the IMAX Theater to see how the Grand Canyon was formed millions of years ago. With two days at the Canyon, the first day you can hike the rim trails, whilst the second day leave the crowds behind and follow the snaking trails behind, hiking deep into the canyon belly. Did you know only 5% of visitors to the Grand Canyon venture past the rim?

There is news today in Sports Direct News that Newcastle United are interested in French U21 International winger Anthony Knockaert, who is currently at Leicester City.
Anthony Knockaert – in good form for Leicester City
Leicester are flying high at the top of the English Championship at the moment, and Newcastle were linked with their 20 year-old center-back Liam Moore over the weekend, so it seems Newcastle scouts must have been at the Leicester games recently, but which player the club are really interested in is not clear.
22 year-old Knockaert was born in Roubaix, France and was signed from Guingamp in August of 2012 by Leicester City.
And SportsDirect News is reporting that Newcastle scouts were at the game against Derby on Friday night to watch the Frenchman, but that was what also the report about Liam Moore.
Knockaert is on a three-year contract a Leicester, so his contract still has eighteen months to run, and the Frenchman has been in excellent form for the Foxes this season.
Anthony has played 75 times for Leicester with 15 goals, and he has played three times for the French U21 side.
Comments welcome.

text: Here is an interview by UDFA Brian Arnfelt that was done by my friend at NFL Draft Zone Damond. Arnfelt is a very good player who shined in college and at his pro day. For 6'5 the kid can move. I like the direction that the Steelers have went his year, it seems they are getting smarter players who can play. I am super impressed with this draft class. Arnfelt could be a good practice squad player.

S.C.—The Samford baseball team swept a Southern Conference doubleheader
at Furman Friday afternoon at Latham Stadium. The Bulldogs defeated the
Paladins by scores of 9-1 and 9-4.
In the first game, C.K. Irby (4-2) pitched a complete game and
tied a Samford record with 16 strikeouts, while allowing no walks. The 16
strikeouts ties a record set by Josh Ehmke on May 13, 2006, at Tennessee Tech.
In addition to his performance on the mound, Irby led the Bulldogs
at the plate as well. He went 3-for-5 with a home run and two RBI. Phillip
Ervin went 2-for-5 with a home run and an RBI. Austin Allison also hit a home
run in the first game, going 1-for-5 at the plate.
"In the first game, I thought we played great," Samford head coach
Casey Dunn said. "C.K. was unbelievable on the mound, and I thought we had
really good at-bats and we extended the lead late. I couldn't be more pleased
with what we did in game one."
For Furman in game one, Andrew MacLatchie drove in the Paladins'
lone run with a solo home run in his only at-bat of the game. Nate Smith (2-1)
pitched 7.0 innings, striking out eight batters and walking three to take the
loss on the mound for Furman.
In game one, Samford jumped on top first with four runs in the top
of the second inning. Ervin led the inning off with a home run to left field
for the game's first run. With two outs in the inning, Brandon Haarer and
Richard Greene singled, and Frankie Navarrete walked to load the bases. Allison
then reached base on an error, and Haarer and Greene scored on the play for a
3-0 Samford lead. Navarrete then stole home on a double steal in which Allison
took second base and Samford took a 4-0 lead.
The Bulldogs added a run in the third inning to push their lead to
5-0. Irby and Ervin led the inning off with back-to-back singles. With one out
in the inning, Caleb Bryson singled to drive in Irby for a five-run Samford
Samford plated another run in the top of the seventh inning.
Allison led the inning off with his first home run of the season to give
Samford a 6-0 lead. The Bulldogs also scored a run in the eighth inning.
Christiaan Durdaller singled and later scored when Greene reached base on a
fielder's choice for a 7-0 Samford lead.
The Bulldogs added two final runs in the top of the ninth inning.
Irby hit a two-run home run to make the score 9-0.
Furman got on the scoreboard with a run in the bottom of the ninth
inning. MacLatchie led the inning off with a home run to make the final score
In game two, Samford was led by Ervin, going 4-for-4 with a double
and an RBI. Durdaller went 2-for-4 with three RBI, while Bryson went 2-for-5
with two RBI.
Alex Milazzo (4-0) pitched 5.0 innings, allowing four runs, just
one earned, on eight hits to earn the win on the mound. Milazzo struck out
seven batters and overcame an early three-run deficit to get the win. Parker
Curry, Andres Gracia and Arthur Strauss split the final 4.0 innings to close
out the game and secure the win in game two for Samford.
"The biggest thing is, we threw strikes," Dunn said. "Alex
obviously had a rough inning, but we put him in the whole because we failed to
make a couple of plays that would have changed his outing. But he battled, I
thought he kept his composure well and he was able to put up a couple of zeros
after the three-run inning. Parker came in and threw strikes, and I thought we
played really well defensively behind him. Then Andres came in and got the two
huge outs in the eighth, and then Arthur did his job in the ninth."
For Furman in game two, Chris Ohmstede and Jordan Simpson had two
hits each. Elliott Warford (0-3) pitched 3.1 innings in relief, allowing four
runs on five hits to take the loss on the mound for the Paladins.
Samford jumped on top first again in game two, plating a run in the top of the first inning. Allison led the inning off with a single and later scored on a single by Ervin for a 1-0 lead.
Furman tied the game with a run in the bottom of the first inning. Hunter Burton singled with one out in the inning. Burton then scored on a double by Paul Nitto to make the score 1-1.
The Paladins added three unearned runs in the second inning to
take a 4-1 lead. Ohmstede singled to lead off the inning and later scored on a
Samford error for the first run of the inning. Simpson also singled and later
scored on a Samford error, with Will Muzika scoring on the same play for a
three-run Furman lead.
Samford came back with three runs in the top of the third inning
to tie the score at 4-4. Allison walked to lead off the inning and later scored
on a Furman error for the first run of the inning. Durdaller later singled to
drive in Tommy Corbin and Ervin to tie the score.
The Bulldogs took the lead again with two runs in the top of the
fifth inning. Corbin scored the inning's first run when Patrick McGavin reached
base on a fielder's choice. The final run of the inning was scored when
Durdaller hit a sacrifice fly to right field to drive in Irby for a 6-4 Samford
Samford added two more runs in the top of the seventh inning to
make the score 8-4. Bryson singled to drive in Ervin and Brandon Powell for a
four-run Samford lead. The Bulldogs added one final run in the top of the ninth
inning to push their lead to 9-4. Bryson singled to drive in Ervin for the
final run of the game.
With the sweep, Samford improves to 14-10 overall and 4-4 in
Southern Conference play. Furman drops to 15-8 overall and 5-6 in league play.
Samford and Furman will wrap up their three-game series with a single game Saturday afternoon. The game is scheduled to start at 3 p.m. (CT) from Latham Stadium.

A man accused of murder for a downtown nightclub shooting on New Year's 2011 has pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.
Kevin Moffett pleaded guilty to manslaughter Tuesday. The other two remaining charges against him will be dismissed as part of his sentencing set for Jan. 16.
He was to face trial Jan. 14.
Moffett was arrested after a man was shot and killed outside Club 915 on Southwest Second Avenue at 1:30 a.m. on New Year's Day 2011.
Investigators said a fight broke out and club bouncer Ruben Mata, along with other employees, escorted a group of people outside.
When an officer arrived at the scene, he heard gunshots and found Mata on the ground. He was rushed to the hospital and later died.
An officer fired a shot as the situation unfolded, but no one was hit by his gunfire.
Hundreds of people poured into the street at the time of the shooting.

'Incentivise teaching'
THE Jamaica Teachers' Association (JTA) is proposing an incentive approach to addressing the shortage of educators in subjects such as mathematics.
This, while carefully skirting the issue of whether some teachers should instead be paid higher salaries than others in the profession.
"What we suggested is that we would give incentives for the training in math," association president Clayton Hall told Career & Education last month.
"We would seek to have them procure reduced interest rates from student loans and increased bursaries and scholarships which would then end in them being bonded to work in the system for a number of years," he added, noting that the JTA had yet to discuss whether some teachers should be paid more in an effort to boost their numbers.
According to Hall, they communicated their proposal to the Minister of Education, the Reverend Ronald Thwaites, following this year's sitting of the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate examinations, which saw students performing poorly in mathematics and English.
Ministry of Education statistics showed that only 46.2 per cent of the students passed English language down from 63.9 per cent last year and 64.9 per cent in 2010. A mere 31.7 per cent of students earned passes in mathematics, a decrease from 33.2 per cent last year and 39.5 per cent in 2010.
The poor performance of the students served to re-ignite the debate over what needs to be done to improve the grades. Those suggestions have included paying higher salaries to teachers of subjects, such as mathematics, science and English.
On this prescription, the JTA has remained non-committal, with Hall saying: "We, at this point, haven't discussed anything having to do with paying particular subject teachers more than other subject teachers."
Other stakeholders, among them educators and heads of the teacher-training institutions, are divided on the issue.
President of the Bustamante Industrial Trade Union, Senator Kavan Gayle, speaking on a radio programme in July, said he believes all teachers should be paid more, but that they should be paid "at a premium" in order to attract the best and the brightest.
Principal of St Joseph's Teachers' College Gwen Melhado agreed with the JTA that Government should provide incentives for teachers of math and specialist teachers.
"Maybe incentives can be given to encourage high school students who are considering coming into teacher training, to encourage them to study early childhood education," she said, adding that she would like to see an increase in the number of educators undertaking training to teach, for example, at the early childhood level. It is necessary, she said, to have a specially trained teacher in each classroom at every early childhood institution.
Shortwood Teachers' College principal, Elaine Foster-Allen, said neither the idea to pay some teachers more or to offer them incentives is new. There has, she said, been a proposal to allow persons working in violence-prone areas, for example, to be paid more.
Also, Foster-Allen noted, "Eight years ago, the Government offered tuition to persons wishing to take up math and science programmes in the colleges. I don't have a figure at my fingertips, but at Shortwood we have had each year at least 10 students at such a math programme."
She added that what needs to be done now is a study to see where those students are deployed, what impact they are having in the system and whether that effort should be continued.
"It's nothing new, but doesn't always work. In some instances, people go just for the extra money," Foster-Allen said, insisting that the teaching profession needs people who really want to teach.
"How do you attract the best? The first thing we have to do as teachers is engage the public as professionals. We need to have support throughout the country. We have to say, without a doubt, that education is the number one priority," Foster-Allen said.
Education consultant and author Howard Campbell, for himself, supports offering particular subject teachers more attractive salary packages.
"A couple years back, I believe there was something called a scarcity allowance. The truth is, in other jurisdictions, it is something that is done," said the consultant, a former teacher who left the profession for the private sector, after he was unable to negotiate a better salary package.
Further, Campbell said there may only be a perceived scarcity of expertise required by the education system, since it may be that trained people are simply not in the classroom.
"Skill-sets exist, but we need to take a closer look at how we keep tabs on the resources that we have and how we allocate those resources," Campbell said.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1966 Toyota FJ45 roadster pickup
A truck is always made more handsome by stripping it down to the bare bones and leaving only what makes it useful. Who needs windows? Who needs a hardtop? Who needs cup holders and heated seats? That said, this 1966 Toyota FJ45 roadster pickup has to be one of the more handsome trucks we've come across in recent memory, restored to stock but not overrestored and loaded down with creature comforts. From the seller's description:
After a relatively easy life in a warm, dry climate, this 1966 Toyota FJ40 roadster pickup was given a comprehensive restoration just over 600 miles ago, and presents in outstanding, ready-to-use condition in every way. Sitting on a longer 116-inch wheelbase, it offers a spacious bed and open-air motoring that's reminiscent of roadster pickups of the past. The FJ's unique look makes it instantly recognizable, but even fans of these wonderful machines do a double-take when they see this unusual pickup. The paint is a correct-looking turquoise green that seems to suit its adventurous nature, and combined with the tan canvas top and doors, gives the impression of a fully-equipped expedition ready to depart. Bodywork is in excellent condition with no replacement panels or obvious signs of patching, and the paint has a soft shine that looks right on a vintage truck. Details like the white grille, windshield vent, and the simple bumpers add to its do-anything appearance, and it includes accessory fog lamps and a bed that's big enough to be useful at Home Depot this weekend.
The Spartan interior covers just the basics to get across rugged terrain, including freshly upholstered bucket seats. The new tan vinyl seat covers are correctly pleated and there's fresh foam underneath, so it's easy to get comfortable behind the big steering wheel. The floors are bare steel with rubber mats, so after a day of playing in the dirt it's easy to clean out, and the controls are simple and intuitive in Toyota style. You'll also dig the folding windscreen for the full in-your-face experience, and the new tan canvas top folds easily.
The 237 cubic inch inline-six was the same engine that powered Toyota trucks for decades, evolving well into the '80s with fuel injection and ever-increasing displacement. It spins to life easily and has an expensive-sounding mechanical whir that suggests precision machinery at work. The engine bay is complete and unmodified, a rarity among these trucks, and still inhales through its original carburetor and heavy-duty air cleaner. Underneath, it's solid and rust-free, finished for off-road purposes so it's not shiny but rather purposeful and durable. Original 15-inch steel wheels have been painted white and wear correct "dog dish" hubcaps and a set of modest blackwall radials.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1965 Toyota FJ45
We've featured a few FJs before here on the Hemmings Find of the Day, but none quite like this 1965 Toyota FJ45 for sale on Hemmings.com, which has been treated to a number of upgrades, including a Cummins engine swap and five-speed manual transmission. From the seller's description:
I am offering for sale my Cummins Powered 1965 FJ45 SWB removable top pickup. This vehicle was used in the first Carbon Neutral Expedition and was featured at the 2010 Overland Expo in Arizona.
Here is the build list for this truck:
–Brand New Cummins B3.3 install w/ inter-cooler
-Completely stripped the bottom of the truck cab, both top and bottom and then repainted
-Frame was stripped all suspension modifications were completed then the frame was powder-coated
-rebuilt fine spline axles with 3.7 diffs and disk brakes up front
-shackle reversal
-Saginaw power steering install
-power brakes
-Advanced Adapters rebuilt NV4500 5 speed manual transmission with Rebuilt Toyota split case transfer case with Marks Gearing
-5 new Cooper ST 32 inch tires on new 16 inch rims
-powder coated the frame
-second fuel tank
-installed Vintage A/C and heating system–I installed a complete under-dash unit for future A/C needs, however while driving the truck myself I have never found the need to complete the A/C system. The same under-dash unit also distributes the heat for the truck. If someone wanted to complete the A/C system one of the dual batteries would need to be removed to make room for the A/C compressor and a/c lines would need to be run. All the electrical controls are already in place.
-New rear bumper with tire/fuel carrier
-vintage ARB front bumper installed
-all new body mounts
-new suspension components including OME 2.5" lift springs
-Custom rear canvas topper with two rear zip in doors—one for allowing the bed to be slept in.
-powder coated dash with new Auto meter gauges
-all new wiring including upgraded headlights
And even though I won't be able to enjoy it, but do to my perfectionist side I have recently installed the following:
-rear Aluminum tank with heater for running SVO
-new ARB locker/diff for rear
-new ARB compressor for rear locker
-new custom seat mount with new bucket seats and tuffy box
The only item that is not a 10 on the truck is the paint as it was painted by the previous owner and is being driven regularly—however the truck still looks amazing. Except for the body of the truck not being repainted this was a frame off restoration with all hardware being replaced and upgraded where possible. The truck has 4000 miles on it since its completion so you are basically buying a "new" truck that can travel at 75MPH comfortably and get 25+ MPG running on several types of fuel.

Chairman of Bolton Hospice steps down (From The Bolton News)
Chairman of Bolton Hospice steps down
9:22am Tuesday 28th January 2014 in News By Neil Robertson, reporter
THE chairman of Bolton Hospice has stepped down after six years in the role.
Graham Yardley will be replaced by Judith Bromley, who has been a trustee at the hospice since 2006.
A well-known businessman, Mr Yardley was the finance director at the Georgia Pacific factory in Middlebrook and first became involved in Bolton Hospice in the mid-1990s.
After serving as a member of the fundraising committee in 2001, Mr Yardley became a trustee in 2004 and chairman in 2007.
Among his most significant achievements were the acquisition of Giles House which has enabled Bolton Hospice to increase its number of beds by 20 per cent.
He said: "I have the highest regard for the outstanding quality of our staff and volunteers.
"I have been constantly amazed at the numbers who have remained as volunteers since the hospice opened in 1992 — such dedication is outstanding. I am delighted that Judith has agreed to become the new chairman.
"She has great energy and intellect but more importantly is a very caring person and will serve the people of Bolton well."
Mrs Bromley, a partner at Russell and Russell, Wood Street, Bolton, said: "I am extremely proud and honoured to be appointed as the new chairman.
"The hospice has a special place in the heart of the people of Bolton who support all the hospice does through volunteering and fundraising to enable us to provide the wonderful facilities we have here.
"As a Bolton girl born and bred, attending school here, having a business here and living here all my life, I am eager to maintain that special bond and to help make the hospice the best it can be."
She has worked as a volunteer on the hospice's inpatient unit and in the bereavement support team.
Mr Yardley will remain a trustee of Bolton Hospice and intends to stay involved in the charity.

A trip to the border is only a short hop these days - over to the North Carolina Music Factory. A new Tex-Mex spot called TexiCali Taco and Tequila Bar just opened. Our restaurant expert Sarah Crosland recently checked the place out.
The first thing you notice when you walk in is the artwork and decor. The theme is Dios De La Muerta, the Mexican holiday that honors deceased relatives. The artwork associated with the day is bright and colorful, and features skeletons and skulls. As a tribute to the southern coast of the U.S. there are also motorcycles, low riders, and hotrods.
The food and drink fits the decor. Chef de Cuisine Carlos Rangel is from Mexico City, and the food is filled with the flavors and spices of both Mexico and the Southern U.S. One of the signature dishes that Crosland checked out was the TexiCali nachos smothered in house smoked brisket.
Executive Chef Gene Briggs, who also works across the way at the upscale Osso, said the owners felt there was a need for a more accessible eating and drinking spot in The Music Factory, and that TexiCali fits the bill.
TexiCali is located inside the NC Music Factory complex at 900 NC Music Factory Blvd.

Sunday, August 30, 2009

CONYERS - The Salem cross country teams will feature young runners this fall, but new coach Ryan Baldassaro thinks both squads can make big strides."We are young and have some strong, though inexperienced, runners this season," Baldassaro said. "We are seeing big drops in overall time in the few weeks we've been practicing. Our numbers overall are down from last year, but I think we will surprise some teams with our returning core." Senior Taylor Horton and sophomore Roy Cooley are back for the Salem boys this year. Horton was the Seminoles' top finisher in the Region 8-AAAA meet last year. Deandra Whyte is the top returning runner for the girls. Last season, the Salem boys finished seventh at the region meet, while the Salem girls placed eighth. The key losses off last year's teams include Shannon Christian, who was the top local girls individual finisher in the Region 8-AAAA meet with a 10th place. Also gone are Bo Bateman, Logan Gunzenhauser and Lindsay Kaiser. "(The teams') main concerns are staying healthy and keeping our newer runners focused on long-term results over the season. Our new runners are still figuring out how to pace themselves for a strong finish," Baldassaro said. "We had some key losses in terms of speed and leadership on both boys and girls squads, so returning runners will have to step up a little quicker than anticipated." One of Salem's young runners is already making a big impact. Dontavious Wright finished second overall in the season-opening meet at Newton. "Dontavius Wright is a track recruit and has been running cross country a very short time," Baldassaro said. "We hope to see good things from Evin Morton and Rodriguez Manuel (for the boys). Morgan Reid is a strong newcomer on our girls. "Our main goal is to have our runners come out on a daily basis and focus less on overall times and work toward personal fitness and endurance gains. We expect our varsity boys to compete well within the field during meets. Main goals for our girls are to work together to push our fitness levels and personal times in practices and meets."

A Hennepin County judge heard arguments Tuesday morning in a lawsuit that claims the new Minnesota Vikings stadium project should be put to a citywide vote.
Minneapolis mayoral candidate Doug Mann says the stadium deal violates a city charter requirement of a referendum on any sports facility project worth more than $10 million.
The lawsuit isn't expected to stop construction of the new Vikings stadium because the final bill approved by the state legislature includes an override of any referendum provisions in the city charter.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Martens-------
Not a bad way to show your age: Come out with a few limited-edition styles in never-before-seen fabrications. That's Dr. Martens' 50th birthday plan, and for the historic label's half-century anniversary this Thursday, it's dropping reissued tweaks of its iconic 1460 eight-hole boot and 1461 three-hole shoe. It's hard to think of another brand that's managed the tricky feat of never, over the course of 50 years, going out of style, or one that's managed to woo postmen (its original clientele), skinheads, mods, punks, grunge kids, hipsters, and It girls, all without changing its classic look. For the new editions, made in the original Dr. Martens factory in Wollaston, England, DM is using pebbled leather for the first time, for a craggy, texturized look—age spots done right—and is tricking out the styles with gold details. Style.com has the exclusive first look at the shoes, which will be available at Opening Ceremony in New York and L.A., Trash & Vaudeville in NYC, and Dr. Martens' own shops in Portland and Seattle, where they'll retail for $130 (boot) and $100 (shoe) and be available in limited runs of 1,460 and 1,461. The brand is also celebrating its musical heritage with a series of commissioned covers of cult songs by the likes of the Buzzcocks and the Pogues. Those new music videos—from artists like the Noisettes, the Raveonettes, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Cub—go up Thursday at www.drmartens.com. But our eyes are still on the Docs themselves, which, if the Fall '10 runways are any indication, will be as hot as ever next season. Our prescription: Take two of these and call us in the morning.

What could Windows (Phone) 8 possibly do to Android?
via i45.tinypic.com
p.s., I'm not a native speaker. So please forgive any grammatical mistake that I may have made. :)
I know this might sound like a silly question, especially when we look back at WP7's current market share (at 3.5% according to IDC.) But seriously guys, do you think WP8 could make a difference this time? I mean, unlike WP7 which has been fighting all alone to this point, WP8 has W8 by its side and from my point of view this alone could provide some advantage over Android.
First, developers could really benefit from the shared core -- the number of apps could increase rapidly. As Joe Belfiore has told us, there will be a ".. 'shared core' between Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8," meaning that apps that works on the phone would also works on PC. Furthermore this could attract more developers as they could easily port their apps back and forth between W8 and WP8.
Second, Microsoft's Don't-call-it-Metro UI is quite appealing. It's completely subjective, I know. But at least I've found out that some of my friends love to have those over-simplified tiles stacking all over their desktop when trying out W8 Consumer Preview. The only fact that I could assure is that Microsoft is seriously monitoring apps that tries to get into their store --including their design. So whether you like it or not, it gives the OS a more unified and consistent feel.
Third, The Surface is attractive. Again, this is completely subjective. But I think if Microsoft put a right number on its price tag, this little brat could sell well. Thus, expanding the user-base of W8 and possibly hooks its user to also buy a WP8 device.
Fourth, they're also using the same approach as Android when it comes to pricing. Many
people Apple fanboi said that Android has a huge share in the market because of the rather-cheap pricing strategy used by manufacturers. As much as I hate this statement, I've got to admit; it's kinda true -- especially when we're talking about emerging markets. Now that W(P)8 also come in a variety of prices, I'm afraid this could possibly affect Android in some way.
I realize that I sounded like a W(P)8 freak and an Android hater. Well, the thing is I've been using Android for quite a while now. Nearly every one of my data and content are on Google's servers since 2009 and to top it all I'm also an Android developer. So I don't hate Android -- I effin' love it. In fact, I'm afraid that those advantages (mostly the UX) would appeal more to new and non-hardcore Android users and make them switch, especially when talking about tablets.
I do hope, however, that I am wrong about all those things.
So tell me your opinion, fellow Android Army!

15Ricky Martin Has Mysterious Twin Boys
Uhhhh … okay.
Um, out of nowhere, we learn that Ricky Martin is the father of twin boys, to whom a surrogate gave birth. Nobody is talking about who this surrogate is, or who the mother is, or really what the fuck is going on here. You know Ricky called some overseas sex trade agency asking them to send over two young boys, and when they finally arrived, he was all like, "Shit, dude, I didn't mean that young. How the fuck am I going to explain this?"
Says Ricky's rep: "The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky's full-time care. Ricky is elated to begin this new chapter in his life as a parent and will be spending the remainder of the year out of the public spotlight in order to spend time with his children."
Oh, okay, never mind. Ricky was actually just looking for a reasonable explanation for why he's out of the spotlight. Um, Rickster? You're about seven years late with that, buddy.
Good luck to Ricky — and to those boys!

something tells me his frolicks at the beach with ole henriksen relate to the reason he'd be using a surrogate.
…. what the fuck?
He's hot, does he need a husband to help raise the kids? lol
Congrats to Ricky and his boyfriend!
damn beet, WTF?
Just because he's gay doesn't make him a pedophile. You do know his foundation fights the exploitation of children, right?
I love snarky shit as much as anyone, but I'm not finding humor here.
Hey Okay, sip on this nice hot cup of SHUT THE FUCK UP and go sit your sensative ass down somewhere. She was joking around, damn.
umm isn't it a little uncalled for to call him a pedophile when he is actually an advocate against the trafficking of young children for sexual enslavement?
A tad bit over the top there beat….even for you..
chill people, what, Beets snarky comments are ok as long as she stays away from gays?? she could've said the same thing about Brad Pitt and no one would be up in arms because it'd be a JOKE
If one were to shave Ricky Martin and plaster a bit of make up on him he would bear a striking resemblance to Jessica Simpson… Just a thought.
I don't have a problem with Ricky Martin as a father, but I can't decide whether the phrase "delivered via gestational surrogacy" is more laughable or creepy. A woman gave birth–that's how it usually happens. No one thinks Ricky somehow had these babies himself. So why the need for the euphemistic techno-speak? Celeb reps are so ridiculous.
the other odd part of the quote was that he will be spending the remainder of the year out of the public spotlight. when was he in the public spotlight this year other than this announcement?
I was recently talking to an old gay man. He commented on how much easier things were now. He married a woman because despite being gay the urge to create a family was incredibly strong. He really wanted a family, so lived a double life for a long time.
I know people here only fixate on cuffs on jeans, shoes, and dresses, and have no idea what it is to perform or survive in a business that is as dirty and cutthroat as Showbusiness, but this guy is not only good looking, but a really talented performer. He is also the consumate entertainer and he has been doing that since he is a kid.
I don't understand why people like to tear other people down in the form of slander, which is still a punishable offence, if they ever find a way to prosecute blog visitors on the net — look out!
Otherwise I don't care about his preference because I expect it will never touch my life. He can afford to raise children and give them a good life and I hope he does that successfully. We should all be so lucky.
..it's kinda like if M. Jackson had trouble sireing a heir and hired the surrogate daddy's magic part too, oh… wait…?
Congrats to him…

I'm sure there's tons of books on this now, but seriously, you don't need to pay that much. Writing a killer college essay is as easy as copying off of the smart kid. Just follow these simple steps and you'll probably get into Dartmouth, where no one wants to go anyway.
1. Begin in trouble: "I'd never seen a grizzly bear face-to-face before" is perhaps the greatest single opening line you could ever come up with. If you're not the adventuring type, lie about it. Maybe you had a run-in with marijuana or drugs or some bad philosophy: "I never would've called myself a stoner-nihilist, until I came face-to-face with a grizzly bear." Man, I already want to read more. By beginning in trouble, you create two things: 1. a narrative "basement", the lowest point in your "life" from which you learn, grow, and mature, and 2. something that shows you aren't a pussy. Pussies never get into trouble; they're too busy doing community service and orally pleasuring their over-bearing parents. By getting into trouble, the 24 year-old who reads your essays will say, "Hey, this kid admits he's not perfect. That's way more mature than the kid with the 4.0 and 1600 from Exeter," because 24 year olds are gullible.
2. Describe your greatest achievements as a means of escape: This is very easy. Take whatever student groups or sports you're involved in and talk about how you put your head down and worked on student government/feeding the homeless/playing football/playing football against the homeless. When you looked up again, suddenly, you were out of trouble. "It was the only thing I did for a whole year- just put on my cleats and throw myself headlong into it. Before I knew it, we were going to State. I wasn't even thinking about winning anymore- I just knew I could push myself harder, better, faster. The record, wins and losses, that was just noise in the background- I was determined to do things I'd never done before, like fight grizzly bears."
3. Return to your beginning, with a different twist: What's really sad about people who read college admissions is that no one appreciates the fine craftsmanship of the utterly bullshit endings. The key to looking "mature" is to show this kind of meta-obligation to something, approaching your extra-curriculars like they actually reward you, instead of being that laundry list of bullshit you convince yourself is worth your time. Like anyone EVER had fun working on a yearbook. "When it was over, we got pizza delivered and we sat there, too exhausted to eat. The stars were out and I looked over at the other kids on staff. ?Do you think people will like the yearbook?' someone asked. I would've answered, but it didn't matter. We had put together the whole thing in two days, after our advisor had been eaten by a grizzly bear, with the only digital copy in her pocket. It was good, for any year book, even if it was marked by tragedy and hastily designed window-frames with the clichéd tagline ?looking back through time' on them. It was something more than a physical copy- it was sacrifice. Something given for something gained. I didn't let anyone sign my copy- I had gotten enough memories out of that yearbook."

I studied English at Cambridge and will be joining Norton Rose Fulbright as a trainee in 2015. I applied directly for a training contract, and was surprised by the speed of the process. I attended an assessment day a week after I submitted my application, and received my offer a few days later, which saved a lot of anxious waiting.
Before applying, I had completed two vacation schemes with city law firms, each of a distinct size and culture. These were valuable experiences which familiarised me with the world of corporate law, and taught me how to appreciate the important differences between firms that I might otherwise have missed – for example the number of lawyers in each area of practice, or which seats are typically available for trainees. Vacation schemes were also useful in helping me refine my awareness of what kind of firm I wanted to join. I discovered that I was looking for a firm with an unrivalled presence in the world's most exciting developing areas, combined with a strong historical presence in London. This sense of tradition with a modern outlook led me straight to Norton Rose Fulbright.
Before applying for a training contract, I also did internships at a number of small NGOs, and found this experience very useful in the application process. These small organisations gave me responsibilities crucial to their smooth functioning, and asked that everyone take a creative approach to problem solving, which was useful preparation for training contract application forms and interviews.
Something I wish I had realised earlier is that the opportunity to pose your own questions in an interview is highly valuable: there's no better way to get an insight into the culture and future direction of a law firm than a captive audience of senior lawyers!
