FAA Memo: Feds Knew NYC Flyover Would Cause Panic
Original post made by Sharon on Apr 28, 2009
Feds threatened Federal Sanctions Against NYPD, Secret Service, FBI & Mayor's Office If Secret Ever Got Out.
"In a memo obtained by CBS 2 HD the Federal Aviation Administration's James Johnston said the agency was aware of
"the possibility of public concern regarding DOD (Department of Defense) aircraft flying at low altitudes"
in an around New York City.
But they demanded total secrecy from the NYPD, the Secret Service, the FBI and even the mayor's office and threatened federal sanctions if the secret got out."Web Link
Never loose the opportunity of a crisis seems to be the policy now, this one backfired.

Hope and Change!
A stunt as breathtakingly moronic as the NYC flyover would seem to require Joe Biden as at least a co-author, but maybe Obama is catching up and can do these things by himself now.
I propose a simple division of labor: Biden can alternately confuse and terrify the populace with incoherent ramblings, wild-eyed predictions of doom and ill-conceived stunts, while Obama nationalizes industries, regulates all known activity for "our own good", doubles the national debt in 8 years, lets Iran get nukes, and apologizes for the US to dictators, Islamofascists and even fellow socialists.

What in heck did Biden have to do with this!

This is routine accommodation of a defense contractor. Only a liberal would whine about it.

Amazing silence on this by the media. The whole thing is wrong on so many levels. Imagine a Repub Pres claiming he knew nothing about this.
1) Either he would be accused of lying to cover up, or of incompetence for not tracking his staff's decisions better
2) A clamor would arise to fire the person responsible for such a moronic act.
3) A clamor would arise about the waste of gas, money, all for propoganda, when we already have photos of AF1 in front of the Statue.
The usual double standard.

You left out the black helicopters, P. Turn in your Junior Conspiracist badge immediately.

It was very, very poor judgment,
scared a lot of people and cost around $400,000 dollars.
The image could have been photoshoped for $100 or less.
It was reminiscent of the Styrofoam Temple Obama used in Denver.
Narcissism is one thing but fiscal waste in these times is a serious matter.

Rumor has it that it was a top secret test - photo-op story was a coverup that soon got hushed up.
on May 7, 2009 at 4:27 pm
So, let me get this straight...it is NOT in the interest of America to release the photo of AF 1 flying over NYC, but it IS in the interest of America to release photos of Abu Graib abuse by personnel who have been tried, convicted and imprisoned for their crime, in the interst of ...what?
There is only one outcome of such a release, to be used as anti-American propoganda under the auspices of "this is the norm", not "this was caught and punished"
The ACLU says that Americans have a right to know, that the press has an obligation to inform..etc
Under the same convoluted thinking, we should cause front page photos of every single person who has been tortured ( and I mean loss of bodily integrity) and killed in America by ..say..illegal aliens who have beeen caught, convicted and jailed. Heck, that won't inflame anything, will it? AFter all, it would only show how good we are at catching and jailing the bad guys, right, just like how good our military is at prosecuting and convicting its own bad guys. I am sure nobody would use the photos to inflame and propogandize.
Or, if you don't like that analogy, maybe we should publish on the front pages of all the papers of the nation, and across the world, all the tortured and murdered people in our nation along with the PEOPLE WHO WERE CONVICTED AND JAILED for the crime. That would do America a lot of good, ya know..the public has a right to know, right? The world needs to see in picture form who the majority of murderers are and what they do to people..proving who we are and how bad we are, even though we have a rule of law that forbids such horrors, prosecutes and jails the perps of these horrors...
The only point of NOT releasing the AF 1 debacle is to try to not embarrass the Admin...the only point of releasing the photos used to convict and jail aberrant military personnel is to fan the flame of anti-military and anti-American hatred.
The hypocrisy and naivete of this Administration completely knocks me over.
on May 7, 2009 at 6:26 pm
"The $328,835 snapshots of an Air Force One backup plane buzzing lower Manhattan last week will not be shown to the public, the White House said yesterday. 'We have no plans to release them,' an aide to President Obama told The Post, refusing to comment further."Web Link
Since the stated purpose of the flight, which nearly caused a panic in New York due its resemblance to the 9/11 attack, was to take publicity photographs of an Air Force One type aircraft over New York City, then that purpose has been defeated by the restriction.
"The photos . . . are classified that's ridiculous," Councilman Peter Vallone Jr., said.
The NY Post speculates that the lid came on in order to avoid reminding the public of the fiasco.
Time to move along, I guess
on May 7, 2009 at 7:04 pm
Exactly, wouldn't want to inflame a public against you personally, just against the FORMER Admin and our military...
I sure hope the ever growing silence I hear from former BHO supporters is indicative of "The Emperor has no Clothes" moments exploding all over the nation.
The only ones left seem to be in the media..they have a vested interest in continuing to make him look as good as possible, or they know who America will turn on even more for their complicity in the biggest media coverup in American history.
Move on!

The San Mateo Police Department is recognizing its dispatchers this week as part of National Public Safety Telecommunications Week, which runs from April 14-20.
Sponsored by the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials International and celebrated annually, dispatchers' week honors the thousands of men and women who respond to emergency calls, dispatch emergency professionals and equipment, and render life-saving assistance to the world's citizens.
The San Mateo Dispatch Center is a division of the Police Department and dispatches for about 120 officers in two agencies.
The San Mateo Dispatch team is known throughout the County for its professionalism and desire to serve the public.
Each year, San Mateo Public Safety Dispatchers are responsible for:
- Dispatching more than 50,000 calls for service
- Answering over 300,000 telephone calls
- Handling more than 40,000 9-1-1 calls
- All done while managing over 2 million radio transmissions with SMPD Officers and Staff.
SMPD's Dispatch Center provides contract dispatch services to the City of Brisbane and is currently seeking to expand that role as a regional dispatch services provider. The City of San Mateo's dispatch center houses one of the County's newest state-of-the-art communications facilities.
The Dispatchers work in a team environment 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Dispatchers are trained in department policies, procedures and systems. Operating as a Public Safety Dispatcher requires a strong work ethic, strong customer service skills and strong interpersonal skills.
Dispatchers receive incoming calls for police and fire for a number of local jurisdictions and dispatch necessary units using a computer aided dispatch system. They determine the nature, location, and priority of an emergency, and coordinate the response of police, fire, ambulance or other emergency units.
Dispatchers also compile statistics on calls received, and play an integral part in the information made available to the public at www.crimereports.com .

VIENNA TWP., Ohio - A sewer project along Route 193 in Vienna Township is moving forward.
Trumbull County Commissioners approved a bid for the project on Wednesday.
The sewer line will be installed from the intersection of Warren-Sharon Road to near Route 82.
Another leg of the line will serve Mathews High School.
"There's numerous businesses along the route. Yankee kitchen, brother's pizza, there's the high school, a number of gas stations, IGA in Vienna; so it will benefit numerous businesses," said Rex Fee with the Trumbull County Sanitary Engineer's Office.
The $2 million-dollar project covers about two miles of sewer lines.
Trumbull County Commissioner Frank Fuda says three restaurants are interested in opening in this area once the sewers are ready.

The Sheepshead, this area's namesake, is the huge sweeping dome visible during most of the drive in on Middlemarch Road. It is by far the most prominent and aesthetic piece of rock in the immediate area, though there are a multitude of quality routes on the smaller neighboring domes.
Getting There
From Tucson, had east on I-10 to exit #303 (Tombstone/Bisbee). Turn right (south) on Arizona Highway 80 and drive for about 20 miles. Just before Tombstone, turn left onto Middlemarch Road. Follow this rough gravel road for almost ten miles to Forest Road 687. Make a left, towards the West Stronghold and follow this dirt road north. Make the first right turn on a dirt road that leads past a windmill to the road's end. Park and hike across the grassy field toward the obvious domes.

Sporting Kansas City rolled into the Eastern Conference final with two dominating legs against the defending MLS Cup champion Colorado Rapids. A brace by Teal Bunbury handed Sporting a 2-0 win in Colorado then they picked up another 2-0 win at home, giving the Eastern Conference's top seed a spot in the conference final at home against the Houston Dynamo. They did so without Omar Bravo though, their designated player who missed the two matches as he recovered from an adductor strain, but now returns and Peter Vermes is faced with the question of whether to put him back in the starting lineup.
In the conference semifinals, Sporting showed no signs of missing Bravo, but that was against the Rapids, who didn't have anyone as good as Brad Davis or a back line with Geoff Cameron. As good as Kansas City looked, can you play the "if it broke, don't fix it" card against a team that is miles better than the one they just faced? Can you play a 4-3-3 with a front three of all out-and-out strikers, none of whom like to come back and get the ball?
Bringing Bravo into the team for any one of Bunbury, C.J. Sapong or Kei Kamara will give Sporting a forward who will spend more time on the ball and help them hold the ball. He would also attract some more attention from Adam Moffatt when he drops back, keeping Moffatt from chasing Graham Zusi around at all times. Most importantly, if he can help Sporting keep the ball, it cuts into the time that Houston can get the ball to Brad Davis and throw all their big bodies in the box, especially on set pieces.
So what is Kansas City to do? Do they go with a little different style by throwing Bravo in there to better match their opponent or do they play with the team and the way that beat down on the Rapids? It could be the decision that determines whether Sporting are booking their tickets for MLS Cup or getting ready for 2012.

Iowa District Won't Provide Diploma for Dead Teen
CREATED May 1, 2013
MANCHESTER, Iowa (AP) - An eastern Iowa school district won't provide a diploma for a high school student who'd struggled all his life with muscular dystrophy.
The family of Travis Krapfl had asked district officials to help them honor his hard work. Travis was 17 when he died at the beginning of his senior year.
His father, Chris Krapfl, says doctors had predicted that Travis would live only until he was 8 or so. Chris Krapfl says the diploma was "going to be that last achieving moment" for his son.
District officials met with the family but decided not to provide the diploma. District superintendent Kristen Rickey says bending the state rules for one student raises ethical problems for when other students seek exceptions.

So darn cute! i'm definitely doing this!! I just love the chevrons.ReplyDelete

Oh my goodness these are precious! I love the idea of painting pumpkins instead of carving them- I bet they last so much longer that way.
My favorite is the scalloped, but they are all so pretty :)
I love painting pumpkins. I have had plans to do this for forever. It's so fun. xo, rv

text: We want re-count! We want re-count! Ok, we're doing this poll over. I should not have included the part about how ignoring how much dough some of the guys listed below are going to ask for. Leave that to the Mavericks, or the Yankees. That's just irresponsible polling on my part, and not a good way to run a franchise. It is certainly not something that Mr. Holt, RC, or Pop would do. If only they read PTR. So now, all things considered, who is the guard you would most like to see in a Spurs uniform during 2009-2010? Tell us why!

The U.S. House of Representatives voted 257-167 to send President Obama legislation to avoid the so-called fiscal cliff and big income tax hikes on most Americans.
The legislation will also prevent across-the-board automatic cuts to domestic and defense programs.
Most Republicans voted against the bill, in part because it lacked significant cuts to entitlement programs such as Medicare. Meanwhile, the majority of Democrats voted for the legislation, which raises taxes on families with incomes of $450,000 or more.
However, Oregon representatives bucked the trend.
The majority of Oregon House Democrats (and the majority of the delegation) voted against the fiscal cliff legislation:
Blumenauer tweeted "a poor stop gap plan is worse than the "cliff", which would force the tax and program reform America needs."Meanwhile, Schrader tweeted the deal "neither tackles the largest drivers of our deficits, nor says we will do so in the future."
Washington's four Republican House members voted for the bill, including Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler from Southwest Washington.

Video games are the bane of manhood; and increasingly, of womanhood, also. More, they destroy Godliness. Followers of Jesus Christ should not be wasting hours on these things, let alone days, weeks, months, years, and decades. And yes, I know several men who are close to wasting a decade of their lives, now.
But it may not even be video games. Three years ago, now, the game I needed to delete from my laptop was Backgammon...So what game do you need to delete as your act of repentance and faith? Please comment and tell us your commitment to God begun this very day.
If you need motivation, read this article. It's fittingly obscene and rancid, and you'll finish it with new motivation to do what the Holy Spirit commands:
Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:1, 2)
The author's right. Hours spent online with pornography, chat, Facebook, and games are evil because of what they displace as well as what they are. And these life-stealing monsters are displacing your love for your wife, your purity, your serving your neighbor and widows and orphans and the poor, your building up your church, your preparing your sermon, your cooking dinner, your teaching your children, your caring for your aged mother, your reading the Bible, your weeding your garden, your work for your boss or the owner of the company that employs you; they are displacing every last bit of your godliness and holiness nad piety, and they have you convinced their innocuous. Innocent, even.
Delete them, now. NOW! And tell your dad or mother, pastor or elder, deacon or roommate, wife or husband you've done so - and why. Then pray that God will allow you to produce fruit in keeping with repentance.
Seriously, write a comment telling us all of your commitment not to look at pornography. Not to "do" Facebook. Not to play RPGs. Then ask us to pray for you.
(TB: w/ thanks to Michael by way of Lucas)
Word With Friends: I consider it a snack for my mind, to feed it a little something now and them. I've deleted it once before because of the ridiculous amour of time I spent on it. Now it's more "managed", but I nearly always convicted when I play thinking I am setting a bad example to my daughters, even if it's to play WITH them. Your list of things that we could/should be doing instead cut me to the quick as nearl every single one is something that I have neglected due to "innocent" and "managed" activities such as this. And really, I was pretty much just feeding my ego everytime I banked a win.
Now to delete it.
Dear Sandy,
Praise God! I will pray for you.
In His mercy,
Lord of the Rings Online. That's been my big time waster and I have just uninstalled it. It's just like WoW, except a different branding and because it's based on Tolkien I get to feel more sophisticated.. Your post is convicting enough, but I also think of just yesterday, I spent most of the morning playing and then in the afternoon I couldn't do a good job explaining basic doctrines to my girlfriend on the phone - and we all see the connection there. But do pray for me, that I would seek righteousness more in my new "free time" (that yes belongs to God, not me), and pray that I would STAY out of the this lifelong habit - how many like me grew up with household game systems that our parents let us spend hours every day on before we even started school?
I'm curious, where would chess fall into this discussion?
Chess is definitely dangerous, though it falls in a slightly different class. The article concentrates on games that you don't really get better at playing--- you just pile up levels and rewards for putting in time. (Very modern educationish!) But it's true that chess is terrible waste of mental energy that could be put to good use, and I suspect that for many experts it's no longer fun.
The article is good, because it emphasizes the hellish nature of those videogames: the Devil attracts you with a mix of pleasure and evil, but then takes away every ounce of enjoyment in it and you're still trapped, and in something that is totally unproductive, even worse than being a workaholic:
"The danger lies in the fact that these games have become so incredibly efficient at delivering the sense of accomplishment that people used to get from their education or career. ...We may wind up with a generation of dudes working at Starbucks when they had the brains and talent for so much more. They're dissatisfied with their lives because they wasted their 20s playing video games, and will escape their dissatisfaction by playing more video games. Rinse, repeat."
I, by the way, played way too much Civil War (a freeware wargame) before I uninstalled it.
I'm speaking generally, of course, when I say this, Pastor Bayly, but in my experience the same people who talk like this about video games have no problem spending three hours watching a football or baseball game.
[BTW, I appreciate that you are not guilty of this here at Baylyblog, and I would point readers to your post from March 31st as evidence of that.]
For those of us who are single, you could easily add Christian online dating sites to that list.
I speak only partly in jest.
Chess, Deer Hunter, Tetris, Frogger, Facebook, Minesweeper. These have all been abused and uninstalled by me in the past. I don't have one that I'm currently struggling with, but I mention them to emphasize that these temptations are often life-long, requiring a lifetime of repentance and faith.
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us." 1 John 1:9-10
Starcraft 2 and Warcraft 3 are biting the dust today thanks in part to this, an e-mail and other things. Wasted too much time on these already. It's time for them to leave for good and time for me to use that time to better ends.
I hadn't thought of computer chess...
Dear Matthew, Josh, and anyone else from ClearNote Church, Bloomington,
Praise God for tender consciences! Remember that the life of a Christian is made up of ever new beginnings. Or as the first of Luther's theses put it at the end, "the life of a Christian is a life of repentance."
Could a couple of you men work together to plan a sin-confession group to spur one another on in the good works of abandoning these time-wasters? And let me know when you hold your first meeting so, if I"m open, I can meet with you to encourage you. I will pray for you.
how about blogging? :)
I've been habitually answering questions on a gamified programming Q&A website that gives "reputation" points for answers that are "upvoted" by others or "accepted" by the asker.
I'll block this site from my browser. (Obviously, it can be unblocked, but the greater concern is that I find a different addictive online activity.)
Shawna is having me remove two solitaire games from here computer.
Pray for us. It is easy to raise a fence and eliminate a behaviour. Living the life of repentance is hard.
Right, let's do it. Why don't you guys go ahead and contact me with availability - yeah, it'll have to be at least after the holiday weekend but we shouldn't put it off long after that.
And if there are any others, go ahead and contact me, I'm not hard to find online, and don't be too embarrassed to post publicly on here either - your "dignity" isn't worth staying in sin.
I had to give up "Age of Empires 2" a few years ago. I ditched my Xbox 360 about 1 1/2 years ago because I wanted to rethink gaming altogether.
My Lord battled for my soul with Magic: The Gathering CCG in early high school (it ended with me asking my folks to throw away my decks; I couldn't do it myself). And then again with my Nintendo 64 my senior year (in a sweat, I cut the cord to it in the middle of the night).
I wasn't paranoid, delusional, or legalistic: it really was a fight to the finish for me. I can say with confidence that failure either of these times could have easily meant no school, no job, - no wife, no children, and, maybe, - no reward in heaven for me.
I've had boardgames for years now. You can't play them alone (or, at least, it is a challenge to do so where it is any fun) and they're missing a lot of those addictive elements you see in the article linked. I have managed to obsess, though, about the newest and the best and the nuances of game mechanics, and artwork. The attraction might be difficult for some of you to understand, but I'll not be pouring over my internet boardgame haunts for the latest "fashion" anymore.
There is narcissistic blogging that is to no eternal purpose. That is how I wrote when I first started blogging, just writing about myself and my feelings and anything that made an impression on me, me, me. By all means, let us abandon such writing. It is a waste of our time and of any who subscribe. (When you post regularly, some will read simply because there's something new, independent of whether there's any value in it.) It is dissipation - let us stay far from it, whether to write or to read!
Blogs like Baylyblog have a different purpose: to warn and to teach, to goad men to submission to the Word of the Lord and to expose where we claim that we do obey but we're hypocrites in need of repentance. Do you see the difference between blog and blog?
On my own blog, I have been more conscious of my responsibility to edify with my words in more recent posts. Compare those with the earliest ones and you can see how much more idle my words were in the beginning.
It's good to be pushed to defend how it is that we aren't being hypocrites in this ourselves. Thanks for bringing this up.
I've given up facebook this past month or so for many reasons, purity, not serving two masters, not
being caught up in the world, and many more temptations and sins that can come from social networking idolatry. Cutting off all the visuals of facebook, the mere relationships with facebook "friends," and just refocusing and assessing how I can truly love my brothers and sisters in Christ and my neigbors has been truly helpful and freeing. I'm thankful Jesus has given me a new will to want to change.
Daniel- yes, I do, I just think it is an inherent risk of the blogger- even the better kind- to become the first kind unless constant watch is kept. I know cause I've done it! Thanks for your excellent summary of that issue as well.
Years ago I gave up movies for the sake of purity, but also to save myself time and money. Now reality seems so much more real. I don't miss them at all.
I've been delivered from TV, movies, and even Microsoft Solitaire.
BTW, one way to fight looking the second time at "scantily clad or unclad women not your wife" is to look away from where that sin nature wants to look, and look at the face. In general, that's not happiness looking back at you.
This is way too reactionary of an article. It is undeniable that video games have a remarkable ability to grasp people, but it is ultimately the responsibility of the individual to exercise discernment and self-restraint when playing video games. I have been gaming since I was a child, but I'm able to budget my time and attend to my schoolwork.
Ultimately, if you're going to examine idolatry, you not only have to examine the idol, but also the idolater. It would be unwise to blame the Lakers for your feelings of anger at their loss in the NBA playoffs, wouldn't it? If video games are so evil, then let's condemn all other things that men find pleasing.
Good on you if you uninstall a game to take a break (like how I did for Facebook a while ago), but let's be careful not to blame the gun for the killing and not the killer who pulled the trigger. BUDGET YOUR TIME AND KEEP YOUR PRIORITIES IN LINE.
Dear Kenneth,
You need to reread this article. It is calling us to repentance which means that the writer is in fact calling out the idolater. Thankfully the article also points out the dangers behind video games or generally hours spent on the computer/web for entertainment. I totally agree with you that if we were all responsible and had our priorities straight (building God's kingdom and serving his church) we would have no addiction or time wasting problems. This is exactly why this article cuts to the heart. You got it right so you should have been praising God for those that did not have it right and who repented. No one is asking you to give up your video games if you are not serving your sinful nature or waisting time with them, knowing all about the dangers of them. In case you were wondering why the article is so radical and why these people react so extremely by permanently deleting their computer games then read Matthew18:8. This verse teaches radical amputation: if there is something in your life that is a temptation for sin get rid of it completely if possible.
Best Regards,
The article has been re-read and my replies have been re-evaluated.
To Benjamin Walker, and the Bayly bros:
Please forgive me for being scathing and harsh in my indictment of this article in my own replies, on this blog and on mine. My reaction to anything that seems to oppose my preferred hobby has been generalized due to the plethora of uninformed studies that link video games to violence, and the like. >.<
I'm not a complete stranger to weak control over my hobby as well as "radical amputation." I used to be a rampant gamer in my childhood, with little respect for schoolwork or time of day. Recently, I gave up some control over my computer to my pastor to help regulate my lustful addiction to Internet pornography.
Keep your sense of discernment sharpened! Your exercise of it has certainly helped me out. =)
Thanks for being a man. Your repentance and forthrightness has strengthened my faith. Keep fighting the good fight, brother!
Dear Kenneth,
You are forgiven, dear brother, and it strengthens us all to have you exhort us to purity.
To all who have made commitments to repentance, produce fruit in keeping with repentance. Holiness is joyful and we must desire above all else to be like Him. I just prayed for you and will continue. Please pray for me.
With love,
Tim Bayly
Kenneth, thank you for posting. I'm encouraged by your and others honesty about their sin and repentance. Experiencing the open confession of sin by brothers a few years back was a turning point in my life. It gave me the courage to repent of many sins and to confess them to men in the church. I needed to be exhorted to keep with repentance. I just deleted OpenTTD and renewed my commitment to purity by putting some safeguards back into place that I've neglected.

I'm trying to think of other desserts that would benefit from having duck poured all over them. The most impressive dish at The Devonshire is a main course concerned with duck. This duck breast has been cooked by someone who knows what they're doing. You can see this in the way the breast is pink and juicy, glistening with sauce, but with none of the sterile airline-dullness that typifies the kind of vacuum-packed duck breast cooked slowly in a temperature-regulated water bath that's now commonplace in pricey restaurants the world over. But the breast isn't the main event. Not for me, anyway.
The thing that's really interesting here is the fig tart. It's a pretty straight fig tart - round cross-sections of the fruit laid into a rectangle of pastry, the figs caramelised under fig juice. Here's the really clever part: the kitchen takes this perfectly pristine piece of pastry and ladles a big, salty, savoury, rich dollop of shredded duck-leg meat, baby onions and roasting juices all over it. This probably wouldn't be so great with a pavlova, and I don't think the treatment would benefit a crème brûlée in quite the same way. Equally, the fig tart would do few favours to a T-bone or a plate of spaghetti. But with this particular duck, it really works, a real greater-than-the-sum-of-parts job. It's a surprising and impressive effect achieved by the chef, and there's not a chemical gelling agent, a bottle of sriracha sauce or a leaf of foraged wood sorrel in sight.
The chef and co-owner at The Devonshire is a guy named Jeremy Bentley. The two most notable places he worked before he arrived here on Devonshire Street in Surry Hills were The Square in London and Restaurant Balzac in Randwick. My experience of these two restaurants has been positive. What I think might be their most interesting common factor is that as flavour-packed as the dishes they serve seem on the written menu, what arrives at the table is even more potent still. This is not to say it's inelegant, ham-fisted stuff, or that chefs Matthew Kemp (a Devonshire backer) and Philip Howard are incapable of subtlety. They're definitely as apt to finely tune a chervil garnish as the next man, and their dishes are nothing if not balanced. But you know when you go to Balzac or The Square that you're not going to have to look far for flavour, and the ingredients on the plate are going to taste very much of themselves. And then some. And it's the same story at The Devonshire.
What you don't get at The Devonshire is a room of extraordinary elegance. It's comfortable, with good solid chairs and plenty of linen on the tables, but the noise bouncing off the tiled floors around the long room can be tiring. The lighting still needs work, and the framed mirrors clustered tightly down the east wall speak more to careful budget management and a cheerfully DIY approach to renovation than to memorable design. The wine list is curiously underpowered, especially in a year where smaller producers, lesser-known appellations, unfamiliar grapes and unusual winemaking techniques are being celebrated in exciting lists all over town. There's quite a bit to buy under the $60 mark, which for this neighbourhood is apt, but not a lot you necessarily want to drink. It's getting there.
But ground lost on these shortcomings is recovered readily by the way things are played on the floor. This is not to say that the service has been, to date, flawless. I've been to the restaurant a couple of times now, and on each occasion there's been a dropped stitch - a forgotten side, a lost order of mineral water. But it's small stuff; the things that count for me are there - the waiters know the menu back to front, and the dishes issue from the kitchen at a rapid pace, spaced appropriately. Matthew Jolly, a waiter I last saw working at Bécasse on Clarence Street, knows his business and puts in an urbane turn as restaurant manager, his performance bolstered as much by wit as by expertise.
Chef Bentley's cooking has elements more in common with the Franglais cooking of the Banc boys - Bécasse's Justin North, Balzac's Kemp, Assiette's Warren Turnbull and Four in Hand's Colin Fassnidge - and with the Jeremy Strode, Paul Wilson, Michael Lambie, Donovan Cooke Melbourne Brit-pack before them than it does with the envelope-pushers at Marque and Quay or the American-influenced boy-food brat-packers at Duke and Ms G's.
This means that the seared scallops will be seared bang-on and will come with fat streaks of celeriac purée dyed jet with squid ink. That mussels will become little beignets before they garnish the mulloway, dressed with a surprising sardine vinaigrette. If things can be passed, moulded, reduced, moussed, sauced or set, they will be. It means there'll be extras, and these extras will be good. Two types of butter instead of one. A little appetiser of creamed salt fish made with fish the kitchen has salted in-house. More, in other words, is more.
This particular chef milieu is also known to have an affinity with offal. Tongue and sweetbreads are commonplace on their menus. The Devonshire goes one better, putting both organs (taken from a veal carcass of tender years, I'd say) on the same plate. The tongue blows a raspberry (figuratively speaking) over a rémoulade-like hill of Brussels sprout coleslaw, the sweetbread is showered with a fine grating of almond. The tawny flavour of Madeira, completely classical and completely appropriate here, brings everything together on the plate. The textures are elegant, the flavours clear.
There's something faintly traif about serving cooked birds in any kind of nest, not least of all with the accompaniment of its eggs, fried golden without and bright and gooey within. But the nest, a crisp wide band of fried potato strings feathered with frisée leaves, is certainly a marked improvement on other examples from the edible-basket genre. It has flavour, for one thing, and once you've done the tremendously satisfying job of smashing it to bits, it really does add a useful textural counterpoint to the bits of quail in their tomatoey, mustardy sauce.
Desserts can confound the classicism, and in a good way. The little play on Devonshire tea could verge into twee territory if it weren't for the fact that (a) the place is, after all, called The Devonshire and located on Devonshire Street and (b) the dish is executed really nicely. It's a tea-flavoured crème brûlée set in (of course!) a dainty china teacup. The scones appear in ice-cream form, which is pretty groovy, and the other boxes are ticked with an attractively chunky cherry jam and a quenelle of cream. If the cup still bothers you, take a punt at the pineapple pudding. If you were expecting it to be a narrow, near-foot-long tranche of caramelised pudding under ice-cream and swimming in pineapple soup you're one up on me, but the surprise is pleasant and it works.
It's abundantly clear that Bentley is a confident chef in possession of the skills and good taste to rock this part of Surry Hills with thoroughly accomplished cooking in a way it hasn't seen before. Even if not every loose end in the rest of the restaurant package has been neatly tied away, that's an engine that will see it across the finish line and roaring comfortably back for a victory lap.

This is always a fun and divisive issue. Some fans just can't bring themselves to root for losses even if it means more ping pong balls and a better chance (statistically at least) at getting a star in the draft.
The way I see it, this season is over. Has been for awhile. The odds of any big free agents coming here or any blockbusters trades saving the franchise are slim and none.
The draft is probably this team's only chance at salvation and from what I hear, this is one of the best drafts in awhile.
Personally, I can't see why someone would rather finish with say 24-28 wins and be looking at a 6-12 pick than finish with say 18-20 wins and most likely be looking at a top five pick.
Any wins they get for the rest of the season are meaningless as far as I'm concerned.
So what you say, to tank or not to tank?

According to Josina Anderson,
After being released by the Denver Broncos last season, running back J.J. Arrington is now set to return to his former team.
Sources told Fox31's Josina Anderson Thursday afternoon that Arrington has just signed a one-year contract. The terms of the deal were not disclosed at the time.
Arrington was on his way back to the airport at the time of this report.
Last year Arrington signed a four-year, $10 million deal on Mar. 4, but had just underwent a knee operation a month prior. Thus, Arrington had trouble working into the team's offseason activities and was eventually cut.
Arrington, 27, was a second-round choice of the Arizona Cardinals in 2005"
I like this move, it brings a speedy guy (4.4 40 Yard Dash) Who can run (6.0 ypc off of 31 carries in 2008), catch out of the backfield (255 yards receiving in 2008) and take pressure off Eddie to return kicks (26 yards per KR in 2008). Its a one year deal, so it cant really hurt.

Thiago Motta's inclusion seems to have quieted the Germans down, and although Italy will presumably miss Riccardo Montolivo's creativity, they're not exactly lacking for pretty passers in their lineup. An errant pass from Jerome Boateng gets them going, and a magnificent, flowing move sees Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio -- who's been a little bit disappointing in this tournament, for my money -- find space on the edge of the box, but blaze wide.
Mario Balotelli, meanwhile, will not be scoring a third goal or picking up a second yellow card (odds were just about even). The striker's down with what looks like a cramp, and although he's booed by the Germany fans, who are accusing him of time-wasting, it's clear that he can't continue and he'll be replaced by Udinese talisman Antonio di Natale. Not a bad shift from Balotelli, eh?

LeBron is back, and so now it's time to figure out how that makes us feel.
A story: The hood and roof of my car have a few long scratches in their paint. They showed up sometime this winter, long silvery gouges on the otherwise-pristine field of metallic blue. The scratches in the roof sit just above the driver's seat and are obvious to anyone who may be getting into the driver's seat. That person is usually me, and I see the scratches every time.
My wife pointed out the scratches to me sometime in the late winter, maybe early March. Our initial theory was that our car got keyed. This seemed plausible, and was infuriating. Random damage happens to cars parked in cities; one of my tires had been slashed just a few months prior on Thanksgiving weekend. It sucks, but it's part of city life. The idea that someone came onto our property and damaged my vehicle angered me, but that anger quickly subsided. C'est la vie.
One morning a thought occurred to me: I had used a metal shovel to clear snow off of my car. The metal-on-metal friction likely caused the scratches. Another thought occurred to me: I'm a goddamned idiot. [Read more...]

By DREW GARDNER 6 News Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - More than 100 job seeking veterans had the chance to get in front of potential employers at the Hiring Our Heroes job fair.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce hosts the event in cities all over the country and brought it to Knoxville's Expo Center on Tuesday.
Searching for a job in today's market can be a difficult task, but for veterans coming out of service, it can be an even greater challenge.
Sgt. Steve Schaffner has served in the U.S. Army for 24 years, but he will be retiring in December and returning to the working world.
"Still a little scared," said Schaffner. "I'm not sure yet. It's something I hadn't thought a whole lot about. It's hard to give up. Been doing this so long"
The fair was designed for people like Sgt. Schaffner and all military veterans and spouses. It gives them a chance to get in front of more than 40 veteran-friendly major corporations and businesses.
"They have one-on-one opportunities to explain what they bring to the table, the skill sets they have and how it bests translates to what the employer is looking for," said event Planner Ernie Lombardi.
"This is awesome," said Schaffner. "This is great. I've sent a few resumes out, but this just gets me with people."
That getting in front of people has helped many veterans land jobs.
"We've seen over 20,000 veterans nationwide go back to work, so it varies from community to community," said Lombardi.
Sgt. Schaffner says he doesn't know if he will commit to a job just yet.
"Right now, I think today is just kind of a looking around thing for me," said Schaffner.
With his retirement fast approaching, he says he certainly wouldn't turn one down.
If you are a veteran looking for a job and weren't able to attend Tuesday's fair, there are plenty of workshops and services including a mobile app to help you in your search. Click here for more information.

Climbing commences here following nine clips up a steep gray-streaked "slab" that is the Ivory Tower and terminates atop another pedestal with just enough room for you (and perhaps one small farm animal) to stand, relax, enjoy the view and drop your rope into the lowering station.
From a large parking area nearest the southernmost sign for the Ice Caves (this parking area is on the west side of the road, just north of a small bridge, and is marked by one of several Jackie's Portable toilets conveniently located in The Canyon - thank you, Jackie!), hike east for ~15 seconds until you reach the Nappy Dugout, then head south for ~30 seconds until the trail leads up a small (but still too large) hill. On the wall atop this hill are the two Rifle classics, PMS and PMT. Approximately 20 feet north of these climbs is a large grayish to ivory colored pedestal with a top big enough to comfortably sit you, a belayer, and a couple medium-size farm animals.
9 quickdraws.

George Clooney aside, it's been a strong trend in David O. Russell's career to secure great performances from actors and then continue to bring them back for further projects. The director's latest instance of such is with the Weinstein-backed romantic drama "The Ends of the Earth," for which he's reteaming with his "Silver Linings Playbook" actress Jennifer Lawrence, and now another previous collaborator is slated to come on board.
Penned by the newly Oscar-minted Chris Terrio ("Argo") and based on a true story, Russell's latest film follows Lydie Marland (to be played by Lawrence), the adopted daughter of '20s oil tycoon Ernest Marland, to whom she is soon married after Ernest's brother -- Lydie's real guardian -- passes away. Obviously a tricky start to a complex plot -- one that extends into the couple's eventual love and political maneuvering -- and Harvey Weinstein obviously sees Lawrence as paramount to making the material work.
We're not complaining with his choice, but what about the initially cold and creepy role of Ernest? Johnny Depp, Matt Damon, and Brad Pitt are all names that have been thrown into the ring, but Russell apparently wants his "The Fighter" actor Christian Bale to slip into the role. Bale and Lawrence are already slated to act together (alongside Bradley Cooper) in Russell's untitled Abscam drama written by Eric Singer, but whereas that tale of con artists and FBI agents seems more of the frenzied, lighthearted type, 'Earth' appears a proper dramatic challenge for all three main parties involved.
The Abscam film will go before cameras this month, so we'll see how Bale, Lawrence, and Russell find the experience of collaborating before making "The Ends of the Earth," which may well be the director's next film. [Daily Mail]

Give it to Bradley man. Silver Linings Playbook was a stroke of genius, it also had this amazing chemistry between Jennifer and Bradley - one that I never expected, but happened.
Y | March 22, 2013 2:15 PM
Oh come on, if you're gonna get a nearly 40-year-old actor to do a 50-year-old role, give it to Bradley!
cole | March 6, 2013 8:35 AM
I love Christian Bale and his dedication to his work, whatever role he is in. The problem is that only few actresses that can find a chemistry with Bale in a "romantic" scene so far. Sure, he has good enough chemistry with AnneHathaway and Marion Cotillard in TDKR, but I still worry about Bale in romantic movie. I hope everything turns out well.
I love both Jennifer Lawrence and Christian Bale.
lynnee | March 6, 2013 5:47 AM
I love Christian Bale and i don't doubt that his performances would be great but he's a bit too young to play a 53 year old man. I'd like to see Viggo Mortensen play this role!!!
May | March 4, 2013 10:31 PM
I really like that David and Jennifer have been working together. I thought Silver Linings Playbook was beautiful! I haven't seen the Fighter, but I love Christian as an actor. I'm really looking forward to this!!
Marley | March 4, 2013 7:14 PM
Lawrence will be playing a nearly 50-year old in the Abscam movie which is twice her age. Bale will also be playing older (Weinberg was in his 50s during Abscam). If they can make that trick work they should be ok for this project. Lawrence seems a good fit, not sure about Bale as a romantic lead. Not his strongest suit he'll need a really strong actress.
CARY | March 4, 2013 11:11 AM
what about DiCaprio? During his recent interview in Japan, DiCaprio said that long-long break is exaggerated and he would start to work again soon. Who knows...Russell could get DiCaprio win an oscar which Tarantino and Scorsese couldn't deliver?
Mandy | March 4, 2013 10:06 AM
Eww, this pervert David Russel touched his niece and is investigated. He shouldn't be allowed to come near any young girl. Actually he shouldn't be allowed to work again.
Kiki | March 4, 2013 9:37 AM
The rumor going around is that Russell put Jennifer in the small role of Bale's wife in ABSCAM to test out their chemistry which makes sense if he wants Bale for Ernest. Yes, Bale is too young for the role but in the script, the character will be seen in different points in life anyway, with the bulk of the story in his 40s (with Lydie in her early 20s, which is where Lawrence is now) so it won't be too bad.
Monica | March 4, 2013 9:33 AM
caro | March 4, 2013 9:33 AM
FTN,now it's Bale who is too young (to act EW Marland)
caro | March 4, 2013 9:32 AM
i guess that Lawrence is only in the Abscam movie (it's a tiny role and she's really too young) to test how it works between her and Bale

Androgenetic Alopecia, Treatment and PreventionAndrogenetic alopecia is an extremely same disarray affecting both men and women. This is essentially a cosmetic confusion. A diversity of genetic and environmental factors likely amuse oneself a rõle in causing androgenetic alopecia. Other than affecting the resigned psychologically, the chaos is important lone in that it allows ultraviolet illumination to reach the scalp and, so, increases the amount of actinic damage. Androgenetic alopecia is a genetically decided condition. Androgen is indispensable representing movement forward or forward movement of the disorderliness, as it is not establish in males castrated former to pubescence. The advance of the disorganization is stopped if postpubertal males are castrated. Androgenetic alopecia is postulated to be a dominantly inherited untidiness with changeable penetrance and verbalization. Additionally, prostate cancer, disorders of insulin opposition, and high blood force be obsessed or in ownership of been associate to androgenetic alopecia.
At people, this situation has been also called masculine-model baldness. The tresses is gone in a distinctly outlined original, which starts above both temples. The frequency is customarily considered to be greater in males than females, although some evidence suggests that the clear differences in measure may be a image of different airing in males and females. Males with androgenetic alopecia may own an increased degree of myocardial infarction. An grow in kindly prostatic hypertrophy has also been associated. If these associations are proven conclusively, this chaos desire be of greater clinical meaning. Androgens are heavy championing criterion gentleman's sex happening before childbirth and during reproductive maturity. Androgens also keep other consequential functions in both males and females, such as regulating locks development and gender push.
In both males and females with androgenetic alopecia, the movement of big, dikke, with pigment coloured end-eindharen to thinner, shorter, unsure haren and definitively the little, wispy, without pigment vellusharen in the implicated areas is easy. As the bewilder progresses, the anagen position shortens with the telogen period left resolved. Women with androgenetic alopecia commonly misplace mane diffusely above the coronet. This produces a gentle thinning of the curls quite than an spaciousness of discernible baldness. The bit is widest anteriorly. The frontal hairline is frequently preserved in women with this disorder, whereas men note a even place down-back of the frontal hairline beforehand in the procedure. Androgenetic alopecia in men has been associated with some other medical conditions including coronary Colloq ticker sickness and enlargement of the prostate, a walnut-sized gland in males that is located drop down the bladder.
There is no treatment for heritable its deprivation, but there are three types medical treatment which can be for some people, or single or in uniting utilitarian: minoxidil, finasteride, and surgery. While most people with male archetype baldness choose to get the eminence of affairs as they accepted their ringlets color or form, there are baldness treatments which can cut or discontinue hair bereavement, and in ahead stages or uncommon cases, opposite it completely.
