Newsroom Cafe at Honey 10/22
What do you like about fall?
In a rare burst of bipartisan harmony in Washington, Congress just overwhelmingly approved a $12.3 billion water resources bill with two critically important measures for Minnesota.
Blue bands placed by St. Anthony West Neighborhood volunteers, and laminated posters placed by Minneapolis Parks & Recreation tell complementary stories about what to do in the face of the invading Emerald Ash Borer. The park board will have EAB information and answer questions July 18 at 6:30 p.m. during a free neighborhood barbecue at Dickman Park. The neighborhood organization has identified trees to treat along Main, 2nd, 4th, and Marshall streets, 9th and 10th Avenues and a smattering of other locations. (Photos by Margo Ashmore)
The chemical is called TREE-äge with an umlaut over the a, pronounced like "triage," the process of deciding who of those injured in disaster or war will survive even if they wait for attention, those for whom who immediate attention could make the difference, and who can not be saved.
Bill Kahn Posted at 8:11pm, May 15
Cam Gordons 2nd Ward newsletter and papers relate that
Nestled at the bottom of the gorge at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers, Crosby Farm Park is a natural oasis in the heart of the city.
The bright green ribbons are startling. Tree after tree on streets throughout the neighborhood are marked with the ribbon indicating the tree is an ash – doomed to succumb to emerald ash borer.
Purple loosetrife may look pretty but it is a noxious and invasive weed. The plants thrive in our wetlands and it chokes out native species that provide food for native species.
Can survive up to 48 hours out of water.
After devastating losses of elm trees—and in anticipation of future losses of ash trees—Minneapolis Park Board staff has begun planting mixed groupings on city boulevards, including Kentucky coffee, maples, honey locust, and disease resistant elms. (Photo by Gail Olson)
The emerald ash borer has arrived in Northeast, Dutch elm disease never left, and the next fearsome pest on the horizon just might be the Asian longhorn beetle, big as the first joint on a human thumb, with antennae that measures two inches across. That beetle, by the way, isn't so fussy about its diet and shows a fondness for many different types of trees.
Even in frozen February, it is easy to see why Minnesota is so proud of our 11,842 lakes (yep, that is the actual number) and our 6,564 rivers and streams. Minnesotans from all walks of life enjoy our waters in a multitude of ways, bringing us together for decades.
Several controversial fee increases were removed during the conference committee process, but the omnibus environment, natural resources and agriculture finance and policy bill still received several hours of criticism on the House floor Saturday evening before being passed by a 71-60 vote. Passed 42-23 by the Senate about 90 minutes later, the bill now goes to the governor.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Sunrise is a wonderful school. The teachers are very committed to the students. I have had three of my kids in this school so far and they have all loved it. We have only had one problem with bullying and I felt that the school handled it quickly and addressed all concerns for all parties.
I think it is important to point out that there are no labels for bullying when it happens because of cultural/religious differences when the offending children are of the dominant religion. Once a child is labeled as not of the majority they are targets. The administration doesn't know how to address this and not offend the religious majority so they ignore it. Pretty sad. Bullying is rampant in this school. Punishment is neglegable at best.
My twins are in the 3rd grade ALPS program at Sunrise and we have had no complaints. The teachers are fabulaous, the staff is organized and amiable. The principle changed this year, my daughter cried when the old one left she loved her so much. The know the janitors by name too. Love the school. Love the ALPS program, love Sunrise.
Good school. If your planning to send your kids here, i would go for it. Although, the teachers could be a lot better. Nevertheless the principal is fabulous.
My son has been identified as a gifted learner by mulitple Universities, BYU, Tufts, etc. Sunrise Elementary is the first place we've found that challenges him, without making him feel 'strange'! We love Sunrise, and Ms. Durant, the Principal, is worth her weight in gold, no wonder she has earned so many awards!

Healthcare Reform
The vendor charged with processing paper applications for health insurance under the 2010 health care law got a big addition to its contract just days before the online exchanges opened to the public. While there was no advance indication from officials that the Healthcare.gov launch would be riddled with IT failures, the government apparently ramped up its ability to process paper applications just days before open enrollment kicked off.
On Sept. 26, Reston, Va.-based Serco received an $87 million amendment to its $114 million contract with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. It's not clear what is in the amendment, but Serco's initial contract, awarded in late June, called for the company to be able to process 6.2 million paper applications during the open enrollment period beginning Oct. 1, 2013 and ending March 31, 2014, according to government contracting database Govini.
Serco program director John Lau told a House panel in a Sept. 10 hearing that the company was ready to execute on its contract and was in the process of hiring 2,000 new workers to handle the flood of paper applications. He noted in that testimony that an amendment was in the works but did not indicate what it was for. Inquiries to Serco were not answered by press time.
HealthCare.gov needs less tech, more jugaad
CMS did not directly address why Serco got more money at the last minute.
"Serco is a highly-skilled company that has a proven track record in providing cost-effective services to numerous other federal agencies," the agency said in an emailed statement to FCW. "The company has provided exceptional records management and processing support to other federal agencies, similar to work they will do for the Marketplace. The selection met all of the requirements for a full and open competition, and the timing enables us to be ready for Marketplace open enrollment starting on October 1."
The scope of the work was based on estimates from the Congressional Budget Office that the plans would attract an estimated 20 million applicants, with paper applications constituting about 30 percent of these. Despite the estimate, the CBO's expectation is that 7 million people will get coverage under the law by the end of the initial open-enrollment period.
The paper versions of applications are used to determine eligibility. By contrast, the online system accessible via Healthcare.gov is designed to allow applicants to create an account, get an instant determination of their eligibility, and shop for insurance plans. As has been widely reported, the system is not working as advertised.
The state-based exchanges are faring rather better. According to data compiled by the Advisory Board, as of Oct. 16 about 50,000 people had enrolled in health coverage in the nine states with their own exchanges that have released numbers. According to official spokespersons in Washington and Minnesota, two of the more successful states so far, the federal data hub which checks eligibility has not proved a drag on the process.
However, the account creation process has been an early source of friction. As bad as the delays, error messages, and other tech problems have been, it's emerging that insurance carriers that are providing plans are getting hit with IT problems such as duplicate enrollment and incorrect or faulty data on applications.
It's also becoming apparent that the system was not adequately tested, either on the front end for consumers or on the back end for insurance carriers. According to Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini, carriers weren't given new code until a month before the Oct. 1 open enrollment.
"When you implement a project of this size, the first thing you do is unit testing, then you do application testing, then you do integrated testing, then you do scalability testing, then you do user testing, and that plan is usually a lot longer than some of the application development itself. That's happening on the fly," Bertolini said on CNBC.
Despite all the problems, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius still enjoys the confidence of President Barack Obama. The administration clearly isn't eager to take scalps, at least publicly, for the initial IT failure of its signature policy achievement.
"There are certainly issues with the website and people have been working 24/7, around the clock to resolve them and make the consumer experience better," Jay Carney told reporters at an Oct. 16 briefing. He also was careful to decouple the law from the technology, saying that Obamacare "is not just a website."
There's no timetable for fixes to Healthcare.gov, but CMS is facing a Dec. 15 enrollment deadline for those who want their coverage to begin Jan. 1. If the online problems aren't addressed as that date draws nearer, some health policy experts are predicting that there could be some delay to the launch -- either a delay in the individual mandate requiring those not covered to pay a penalty to the IRS insurance or an extension of the March 31 deadline for enrollment.
Another option could be bypassing the IT altogether and putting an increased emphasis on paper-based enrollment. So far, Serco has set up facilities in Arkansas, Kentucky and Missouri to process enrollment forms. While it's not clear what the eleventh hour amendment to their contract was designed to accomplish, it is possible that growing evidence of IT problems in the Healthcare.gov interface drove the decision to expand paper processing capacity as a backstop.

It never fails!!! I'm talking about our government sarcastically. The administration is always blaming someone else for its own failure.

The last 2.5 miles—containing "the wall"—was the most difficult.
But that is the challenge Corbin Shell enjoys.
So after having ridden 97.5 miles of the 100-mile Brasstown Bald Buster Century bike ride, Shell prepared for the final steep stretch, a stretch containing a climbing grade of 24-26 percent—"the wall"— to the top of Georgia's highest mountain.
An old fishing friend pulled up to the docks of the Ocean Isle Fishing Center the other day and we began rehashing old fish stories. We went through a laundry list of tall tales, and it became apparent we just aren't fishing as much as we used to. This conversation was taking place as he fueled his boat, and one glance at the dollars-to-gallons ratio made it quite evident as to why we aren't fishing as much.
It is darn expensive.
Some local anglers have had tight lines and full bellies lately, as speckled trout have staged a nice run that will probably provide the best action until fall hits. Specks are being caught right now both from our ocean piers and around their usual inshore haunts. If you like to catch trout, this is the time to go after them, before warmer weather starts to curb their enthusiasm a bit.
Last Saturday, Crow Creek was busy with serious-looking men of various ages heading for the practice tee and the putting green, clubs in hand. Greetings were called out, handshakes were given, but everyone had his game face on.
The Amateur Tour had come to Brunswick County.
I roamed around and chatted with the guys while I was waiting to speak with John Livoti, the tour director.
The Brunswick County Literacy Council is preparing for its 18th annual golf tournament on June 21. The tournament again will be at the Carolina National Golf Club, at Winding River in Bolivia.
The tournament is the council's most successful fundraising event. Last year, the council aided GED students through Generation NEXT. It also began Make Mine a Diploma, which is a dropout prevention program in partnership with Brunswick County schools and BCLC Baby Steps. BCLC gave 2,708 hours of volunteer service to 1,450 residents.
Ocean Ridge Couples played a two-best-nets match (one from the men and one from the ladies) on May 25 on Panther's Run.
The winning team was Bob and Grace Bradicich and Walter and Carole Milnichuk (blind draw) at -23.
In second were Walter and Carole Milnichuk and Tom and Marie Best at -18 (match of cards). In third were Frank and Dusty Burianek and Don and Peggy Rowland at -18. In fourth were George James and Ann Turner and Lynn and Bev Furman at -16 (match of cards). In fifth were Bob and Jane Kirkpatrick and Howard and Ruth Ray at -16.
Dining on steak and shrimp at home plate, the West Brunswick High School softball team celebrated its 19-victory season May 29, a season coach Joe Noble said was special because of team unity. He gave them plaques with the inscription: Thanks for the teamwork, spirit and unity.
"This was by far the best team the we've had as far as unity and playing together and playing as one," he said.
The Southwest Trojans baseball team improved to 6-1 after beating Socastee 24-13 and 5-3 in a doubleheader Saturday.
In the first game against Socastee, the Trojans led 12-0 entering the bottom of the third before Socastee rallied to tie the score 12-12. But the Trojans outscored Socastee 12-1 in the next two innings to win the game.
Here are summaries of the Trojans' other games last week.
The Brunswick County Post 68 American Legion baseball team won three games last week and improved to 4-0.
On Friday, Post 68 beat Wallace 14-4.
Josh Powell was 3-for-4 with three doubles and three RBIs. Pat Kamfolt was 2-for-4 with two RBIs. Elliot Swain, Wally Kamfolt and Ryan Morgan were 1-for-3. Forrest Stead was 1-for-2. Mikhail Wheeler was 1-for-4.
Ethan Cox was the winning pitcher. He pitched four innings and gave up two runs, one earned. He gave up five hits and four walks. He struck out seven.
Post 68 swept Whiteville 8-5 and 6-5 on Saturday.
Jordan Clear and Josh Sergent are the West Brunswick High School athletes of the year.
Marcia Heady, the WBHS athletic director, presented the Female Athlete of the Year plaque to Clear and the Male Athlete of the Year plaque to Sergent during the Senior Awards Program May 28 at the school.
In volleyball last season, Clear was honorable mention on the Mideastern All-Conference volleyball team. She was voted the Trojans' best defensive player. She led the volleyball team in aces (43) digs (276). She made the all-county volleyball team.

Chicken curry mee from my favorite spot in George Town (photo by David Hagerman)
Thank you for stopping by!
NEWS: I am away from Penang and unable to conduct food walks/tours for the following dates in 2014: August 15 - November 3.
If, like me, you believe that one of the best ways to get to know a place is through its food, then consider an EatingAsia culinary excursion in George Town, Penang.
George Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its lovely pre-World War II cityscape (the largest intact collection of historic architecture in Asia), multi-cultural heritage and lively street life. It's also renowned for its street food (called "hawker food" here in Malaysia) – dishes prepared and served by specialists from mobile carts on the street and in kopitiam (coffee shops).
It's a wonderfully walkable city, and so on my most popular excursion we take in George Town's culinary highlights on foot, eating as we go. Walks run 2.5 to 3 hours and take place in the morning before it gets too hot. I also offer "split" walks -- 4 hours divided between the morning and late afternoon/evening -- that give a sense of how George Town's street food landscape changes a.m. to p.m. Other possibilities include excursions by car beyond George Town -- to a small but lovely market, for example, to experience Penang's best Hokkien mee (prawn/pork noodle soup), peanut and dark palm sugar-filled griddle-cooked crispy "pancakes", Indian appom and Nyonya dishes, or here and there to sample some of the island's best hawker eats.
After you reserve a walk with a deposit I'll email a list of recommended George Town hawker stalls/restaurants not covered on our walk. I can also, if you like, provide a list of boutique hotels that I have reviewed for publication and would recommend without reservation.
What makes my food walks special:
- I've been doing this longer than any other culinary tour operators in Malaysia. I began giving food tours in Kuala Lumpur in 2008, and in Penang in 2010. And I've been researching and writing about the foods of Malaysia and Asia for over 8 years.
- I'm a one-woman operation, so when you book a walk you know that you'll be walking with the person who worked out the details of your booking with you.
- My food walks are private (no strangers booked together) and customized to your likes, dislikes and interests. There is no "set itinerary" -- I vary the vendors I include on my food walks according to what my customers can, and want to, eat.
- I'm a George Town resident. As such I'm constantly "testing" the offerings of street food vendors around the city to ensure that the offerings of those I include on my food walks remain up to standard.
- Showing visitors "my George Town" via its food is a beloved sideline, not my primary profession. Even in high season I don't accept more than 2-3 bookings / week. This mean no rehearsed scripts or canned speeches.
Interested? Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com, or via Twitter: @EatingAsia. I am able to confirm availability no more than 4 weeks in advance. Last-minute bookings are rarely doable, but feel free to drop me a line.
About Me:
I'm an American journalist writing on food and travel in Asia and Turkey for the New York Times, Saveur, Food & Wine, SBS Feast and other publications. I write a bi-monthly column on Asian street food for Wall Street Journal Asia and am a Contributing Writer at Travel+Leisure Southeast Asia and ZesterDaily.com. I was the founding Food Editor at Time Out Kuala Lumpur, where for two years I wrote a monthly feature on the city's food on and off the street. In 2014 my food blog EatingAsia, which I co-publish with photographer David Hagerman, was named Editor's Choice for Culinary Travel in the Saveur magazine Food Blog Awards.
While Penang is home my other love is Turkey, where I've been traveling often since 1998. In 2016 Rux Martin Books/Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (USA) will publish my first cookbook, filled with recipes and stories of home cooks, bakers, artisan food producers, farmers, butchers, fishermen and markets in Istanbul and eastern Turkey.
I have lived in Asia for 17 years and in Malaysia for more than seven. George Town is my home: I fell in love with the city in 2009 and in 2011 moved up here from Kuala Lumpur to oversee the refurbishment of a late 19th-century shop house inside the UNESCO conservation zone. (My not-very-often-updated blog on the renovation project is here.)
What I bring to my culinary excursions is a background in food and recipe writing and research, and a broad understanding of cuisines, ingredients, street food culture and culinary history not only in Penang and Malaysia but across the region. I am mad for the food in this part of the world and have been interviewed about my passion on Canadian, Singaporean and American radio. I've been offering culinary excursions in Malaysia (and occasionally Chiang Mai, where I spent 5 months researching a book on market neighborhood Gat Luang), for over three years.

About APECS
APECS is an international and interdisciplinary organization for undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, early faculty members, educators and others with interests in Polar Regions and the wider cryosphere. Our aims are to stimulate interdisciplinary and international research collaborations, and develop effective future leaders in polar research, education and outreach. We seek to achieve these aims by:
- Facilitating international and interdisciplinary networking to share ideas and experiences and to develop new research directions and collaborations;
- Providing opportunities for professional career development; and
- Promoting education and outreach as an integral component of polar research and to stimulate future generations of polar researchers.
Ed's passion for Antarctica was fuelled during his PhD study. His PhD, from Victoria University of Wellington provides a better understanding of the Beaches in McMurdo Sound Antarctica for ice sheet modeling work and involved several field seasons in Antarctica in the late 1990s.
His first job was with the Foundation for Research, Science & Technology, running processes for allocating funding to science organisations focusing on agricultural and food-based research. He moved to a role in the Treasury monitoring the performance of Crown-owned research organisations before working for Crop & Food Research before taking on his current role.
Featured Member
University of Helsinki; Finnish Environment Institute / Marine Research Centre; University Centre in Svalbard - Finland / Norway
My name is Sanna Majaneva, and I come from a small city called Imatra in the eastern border of Finland. Later on I moved to Helsinki to study Marine Biology and Geography at the University. After four years of basic studies in the "warm" coast of the brackish "sea", I needed the real sea, the real snow, and proper winter. I was accepted to write my Master's thesis on Arctic copepods at the University Centre in Svalbard. My planned half a year long Svalbard visit prolonged into several years, because I worked both as a nature guide and as a research assistant, but mainly for the reason that I fell in love with the white silence.
My stay at Svalbard left a spark towards polar research and I somehow drifted to make doctoral thesis project in collaboration with the University Centre in Svalbard and the Finnish Environment Institute / Marine Research Centre. The main objective of my doctoral thesis is to gain information on ctenophore populations in the Northern Seas. The project studies the role and importance of ctenophores in the food webs and how different aspects of the changing climate could affect these communities.
On my free time, I'm mostly in the out in the nature with a back bag and hiking boots, skies, kayak or dog sledge. The more I learn about this white nature, the more amazed I am, and therefore the Arctic issues have become extremely dear to me.

Miami Gardens, FL
Transportation options in Miami Gardens are a little limited. Less than 2% of the population use it. This is probably reflected in the average commute to work for residents of Miami Gardens taking 33 minutes, seven minutes longer than the national average. Driving seems to be the most popular way to get around. The carpooling rates in Miami Gardens are about 5% higher than the national average, while there are about 1.2% more people walking to work than in most places, which is impressive. Nearby in Miami, you have access to two different airports, as well as Amtrak and Greyhound services.

If you are interested in sports, Miami Gardens may just be the city for you, as it has a rich history in professional sports. Fans know that Miami Gardens is the home of the Sun Life Stadium, home of the annual Orange Bowl college football event. For nearly twenty years, the Florida Marlins, of Major League Baseball, shared the Sun Life Stadium with the ever-popular National Football League team, the Miami Dolphins. Now, the Florida Marlins are the Miami Marlins Miami Gardens' Sun Life Stadium is the home of the University of Miami Hurricanes football team, as well.

The average cost of living in Florida is slightly under the national average. You especially save money on your utility bills by moving to Miami Gardens, as all of your energy bills there would be around ten percent lower than the national average. The housing market in Miami Gardens seems to hold steady below the average costs of living in Florida, with the cost of purchasing a home is only slightly above the national average. Property taxes come in under the national average. Over 88% of people own the homes they live in in Miami Gardens.

Living in Miami Gardens can keep you cheerful and happy if you love the sun. The average temperature in the winter months is 69*F. That is still warm enough to go swimming! Not only that, but the average temperature in the summer is 81*F, peaking in August. If you are sensitive to heat, you may want to invest in a home with central air conditioning. The average high precipitation point happens in June, when Miami Gardens tends to get around eight inches of precipitation

Although Michelangelo (14751564) defined himself as a sculptor, this concisely annotated exhibition of his drawings also showcases some printed editions of his many poems, including an epitaph for a 15-year-old boy: "Only this stone delights in possessing him/While the rest of the world all now weeps." Also on view is Michelangelo's hand-scrawled notice admonishing his foreman that unsolicited assistants hanging around the workshop "will not be paid for the day's work." Most compelling, though, among the portraits of the master by other artists and six of Michelangelo's own architectural plans, are the half-dozen of his figure drawings. Christ in Limbo portrays Jesus in red pencil, his body twisting dramatically as he strides among faintly drawn supplicants. On another of these fragile, centuries-old sheets, faded pencil sketches surround three brawny nudes in ink whose supple muscles heave a tremendous, unseen weight. Study for the Head of Leda (1529-30), probably done of a male assistant, presents handsome beauty in surpassingly delicate pencil strokes. Records from 1699 note that Michelangelo's subsequent painting of Leda and her swan lover was executed "in a manner so vivid and lascivious with passionate love that M. des Noyers, a minister of state under Louis XIII, had it burned."

Thanks for the lookup! I started in Amateur Radio in 1976, in Bowling Green, KY. My interest in radio was in part due to my dabbling in CB, KNT5967, (Yea, I did that!), and my father's (WA4UID) experience as a CW operator in the Army in the 50's. I was licensed in 1977 as a novice with WB4UIC (just missing the WN4- calls), and then upgraded to General in 1978. It was then a long, dry spell before finally upgrading to Advanced in 1992.

I mostly do phone operation on HF, and local VHF Ops on 146.550 Simplex. Look for me around 7.198 - 7.204 +/- QRM/N nightly, or working DX on 20-10M.
My equipment is:
ICOM 706MKIIG for 2M Sideband, and other 10-20M HF
Kenwood TM-V7A 50W for UHF/VHF,
Motorola Spectra 50W VHF,
Tower #1 is 63' of Rohn 25 guyed off at 32 and 58 feet with 5/16" EHS and 8' long "Jesus Hooks" in 1/2 yard of concrete each down 5 feet. The tower base has about 1.3 yards of concrete in a 3.5 X 4 foot hole. On it, I have the 2 Ele Telex-Hygain 402BA Yagi on 40M using a HAM IV Rotor, Wire inverted V's for 40 and 75M at 40', and a Sinclair 2-Bay VHF Vertical at 50 Ft.
Tower #2 is 32' of Rohn 25 tower with an Cushcraft A4S Tri-Bander and an A147-11 2-Meter beam for 2-Meter SSB above that at about 40'. Turning that mess with a Tailtwister II Rotor. Also have a 17M Half-Square wire antenna for 17M @ 25'. Back in 2010, I buried all the runs of coax from both towers in 3" PVC, and added antenna switches to each tower. Ease of Operation!
I also do some HF USAF MARS work, and am the Region8 USAF MARS Training Manager. My USAF MARS calls are AFA8GT/AFE8TM.
I am currently retired USAF after serving 20+ years for Uncle Sam. I was a Wideband radio technician (ex-304X0/2E1X4), and Visual Imagery and Intrusion Detection Systems technician. I joined the USAF in 1982, as a Security Police specialist until I cross-trained in 1987 into communications. I retired at the rank of TSgt, but did make MSgt (E-7) before retiring, just didn't take the stripe - wanting to get back home to the wife after 2 years away from home, and a new life.
My tours have been to Berlin, GE Templehof AS (83-86), Whiteman AFB, MO (86-87), Keesler AFB, MS (87), FE Warren AFB, WY (87-92), Kunsan AB, Korea (92-93), HL9WY was the Korean Call, Ellsworth AFB, SD (93-94), Nellis AFB, NV (94-97), Saudi Arabia (97), Dyess AFB, TX (97-00), Osan AB Korea (00 - 01), HL9WY was the Korean call, and Langley AFB, VA HQ ACC/SC (01 - 03), then Home to Cheyenne in Jan 2003.
I have 3 acres of land about 4 miles North-East of Cheyenne in the county. The house was built in 2003. I am currently a Retired, but previously was a Service Manager for a Motorola Sales and Service company here in Cheyenne. More time to play radio!
Look forward to hearing you on the air!! Best 73, and Good DX!! - Tom WY7KY (ex-WB4UIC, HL9WY) AFA8GT/AFE8TM-USAF MARS

Pete Rock
Hip Hop Underground Soul Classics
Think of these two discs as buried treasure found in a time capsule that was filled and sealed in the mid-90's. There aren't any next generation bangers here. These discs are smothered with smooth hip-hop lounge jams that take you back to A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul and Brand Nubian days. The better disc is INI's. Their voices are soulful and their rhymes straightforward. They ride Rock's melodic beats respectfully. The highlights include the whiny, bass blessed "The Life I Live" and "To Each His Own" featuring Q-Tip. Speaking of the Abstract, "No Words" could easily be mistaken for a few Quest classics. And "What They Say," which samples EPMD's chorus for 1989's "So Wat Cha Sayin'" reminds us of Pete's place in hip-hop history.
Deda's disc also boasts some hot Rock beats, but Deda's vocals just aren't as smooth as INI's, and rhymes like "you definitely on some booger snot shit" and "this shit is pregnant in other words fat" are silly. "How I'm Livin'," with its sexy female crooning and catchy chorus is an obvious crossover attempt and the hypnotic "Blah Uno" is a stand-outs. You just can't help but think that Deda isn't quite worthy of Pete's legendary production dexterity.
These discs offer a taste of Pete Rock while fans wait for 2004's Soul Survivor II, and the highly anticipated reunion with CL Smooth (lord willin'). 2003 has seen a lot of artists emptying out their vaults, and like most of them thus far, these albums certainly deserved to see the light of day. If anything, this album is worth purchasing just for the classic INI joint, undoubtedly one of the Soul Brothers finest top-to-bottom production efforts.

I use lynx dump and WU to get instant weather updated every six seconds.
I use this command: lynx -dump -width 120 http://printer.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=21719 | /Users/lloncosky/library/scripts/lee/weathergeekA
With this script called weathergeekA:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
# Grab all the lines and put in an array.
@w = <>;
# Keep only certain lines for the current conditions.
@t = grep /^ +(Temperature|Wind|Humidity|Conditions|Updated|Observed|Pressure)/, @w;
# Erase the leading spaces and parenthetical values.
for (@t){s/^ +//;s/\(\)//g};
# I want the temperature line to print on the bottom to make it
# easy to see on the desktop. The temperature is always on the
# second line, so exchange it with the last line.
# ($t[$#t], $t[1]) = ($t[1], $t[$#t]);
# Sometimes there's a windchill line, and sometimes there isn't.
# Add a blank line to the front of the array if there isn't.
unshift @t, "\n" if $#t == 2;
# Print the lines of interest in the order I want.
print join "", @t;
You can change the script to get the facts you want. I have geektool display 8 lines in the bottom left of my desktop. I always have an accurate outdoor temp and wind direction.

I forgot to mention. This works best when you use the cookies feature in lynx to select the rapid fire weather station nearest to you. I think you need to install a newer lynx to get the cookies. Then use lynx in the terminal to goto your zipcode weather underground site. Then scroll down and select your favorite local rapid fire station and set it as your default. Thats it. Now whenever lynx dumps the page you will get the weather closest to you.

that printer. URL no longer works it seems (maybe just temporary but...) This mobile link works instead ok:
However I have a perl question... In the perl script above, how can the part that erases "leading spaces and parenthetical values" be modified so that it also kills everything after " / " (space slash space) -- that is all the metric values given? Because my output now looks like this:
Show a one-line weather forecast on the desktop
I will work on that. In the mean time see my new python script in the main thread. Its not as good but I had not even looked at the mobile site, thanks for pointing that out. You will have to open the new script and change the weather code to reflect your area. Maybe it is useful to you. If not, look at it in a text editor and change at will. Everything is commented.

Garage Project #7 - "Morning Wood" CX500 Café Racer
As seen on …
Cafe Racer Australia Build Thread here
Perth Street Bikes Build Thread here
We were contacted by a photographer in Adelaide who wanted us to build him a cool bike to help promote his business. He wanted something small, narrow and dark like a SR400/500. Somehow we agreed on a CX500 which is none of those things. We sourced the bike and he paid for it and then DISASTER….he was suddenly out of work and had to cancel the project. I listed the bike on Perth Street Bikes and James came and had a look at it and asked us to turn it into a Cafe Racer for him.
I've always thought that the CX in all it's forms was one of the ugliest bikes ever made and never saw the appeal. Since it's been in my possession and riding around on it, I really quite like it and can't wait to finish this project so James can join the other Perth Cafe Racer members Brock , Irwan and Jason on their CX500's.
This project is going to be quite challenging for a couple of reasons.
- As mentioned, the bike is damn ugly.
- The budget for the build is miniscule.
Apart from waiting on a parts from the US for Al's CB550 Cafe Racer, we've got GPM#6 "Gunda" the CB500 Street Tracker, GPM#5 a CB750 brat and GPM#8 a SR250 Brat that are all under construction at the moment. There simply wasn't enough time or space for us to take this project on so I asked Brett at Hand Made Vintage Kustoms for a favour and he agreed to let me use some space and as I'm a spaz with the tools, Brett will do any fabricating and slap me when I do something wrong. This is a collaborative build between us and Hand Made Vintage Kustoms.
I was really looking forward to building something that would get onto my top 6 CX's list but I doubt very much it's going to happen with this budget. We don't have the budget to take the engine out and paint it or paint the frame or even the bodywork so we're going for a very mono-tone natural/raw look that is similar to the recently silver powdercoated wheels, frame, forks etc. We'll break up the metal/silver look with a nice custom brown leather seat and grips.
We don't have any real "inspiration bikes" for this build but to give you an idea, here are a few links to similar bikes.
- A Kott? CB350?
- Three E3mc bikes
- Unknown Beemer
One thing we have on our side is the bike is VERY tidy and won't need any engine work or replace any defective parts. It should be a simple "take stock parts off and replace with cafe parts build" with a few nice custom fabricated parts to make it unique.
We're hoping to have it done in a month working a few hours a week.
Here is the bike before we started.
Early July 2012
On Tuesday I stripped it down in a couple of hours.
We picked up the CX500 Custom tank from Two Wheel Wreckers and fitted it to the bike to see what it looked like. Looks much better as it lowers the profile, takes some visual weight off the bike and most importantly the cylinders sticking out the sides are far more visible.
Had a bit of a win with the tank as it didn't come with a key but the key for the bike opened the tank. I'm told that might be the case with tanks but it felt like a win!
The tank isn't a straight fit. A bracket will have to be fabricated for the both the front and the back to make it work.
Parts have started to arrive and I bought a raw hide today and will stain it and treat it ready for the upholsterer next week. The seat is one area on the CX that is rarely done well in my opinion. The only ones I like are the solo seat on the wrenchmonkees bike and long flat seat on the Moto Mucci CX's. We have to build a seat to accomodate a pillion and James doesn't want a flat seat, he prefers a cafe style seat similar to what is on GPM#2. This is going to be a massive challenge but if we can succeed then we're halfway there with this build.
Mid July 2012
Today Brett took the grinder to the frame and chopped off about 50mm from the back and then lopped the brace off and modified the rear inner guard.
After Brett had cut all the crap off, I mocked up a seat base and a profile to see if my idea was going to work. I put a 50mm chock under the back of the tank to lift it a bit and it really helped the lines. The CX has heaps of ground clearance and sits much higher at the front so we'll drop the forks through the triple clamp about 30mm. It'll improve the lines and give it a more aggressive stance and help with the handling.
Will make the seat template tomorrow and visit the upholsterer during the week.
Late October 2012
Things have not gone anywhere near as quickly as we had hoped. Brett from HMVK had a bike show that he needed to finish a couple of bikes for, I had to work interstate for a couple of months and we've wracked our brains trying to work out how to get the seat to look good.
The notoriously difficult to work with CX rear frame has been causing us headache upon headache.
Originally we were asked to build a seat with a cafe racer hump which allowed a pillion to hitch a ride. It didn't prove to be a deal breaker so we set out to make a single seat.
^That comes off a pocket bike. Brett used it as inspiration to fabricate this…
That looked the goods but couldn't work out how to attach it to the bike so we lopped off the pressed steel part and fab a new bracket.
We've also given up on the idea of loooooong reverse cones due to budgetary restrictions and just slipped on some HD mufflers. Will look good when finished.
Mid November
Nearly there. The tail unit and seat is done. The rear shock mounts proved difficult (as has everything on this bike) and have been completed. We are hoping that under its own weight that it won't upset the lines we've worked hard to get.
Mid Jan 2013
The bike is finished and we took it to Leederville for a photo shoot with fellow Perth Cafe Racer member Scott G Trenorden.
You'll see those pics here but probably after you see them on a couple of other blogs (and maybe a magazine) :)
Until then I'll give you an update on what happend since November and show you some of the pics I took. I'd just like to apologise to the professional photographers who view these pics. I have no idea what I'm doing…as you can tell.
The thing that kept bugging us was how we were going to mount the number plate. James wanted a street legal bike so we had to mount it off the back somehow. We thought about a hugger [seen below]
I liked it but Brett hated it so we scrapped it and came up with a fender that will bolt onto the back of the tail piece just under the tail light.
The next problem encountered was this CX had air valves on the forks and somehow, someone for some reason had removed the valves and now the shocks were too soft. We've sourced new ones but in the meantime plugged them with bolts which can be seen bottom right hand corner of this pic below.
After that it was just a matter of painting the exhausts and sidecovers, wrapping the pipes and finishing the electrics.
This bike took far longer than we expected to build because it threw up a lot more challenges than your standard flat framed CB etc
It's a shame that James now has to sell it to fund other parts of his life. Part of the enjoyment of buiding a bike is seeing the owner enjoy the creation and hopefully come for a ride with us. That opportunity is open to others now so if you are interested contact me or Brett to organise a test ride.
In the meantime here are some shots from the shakedown ride.
^See the steam coming off the pipe wrap.
^Hand Made Vintage Kustoms really made their mark on this bike.
^You know whats coming….
maybe later :)

Visiting speaker, 18 Oct 2011: Jean Moorcroft Wilson on Edward Thomas
Posted by Anthony Mandal in News, Speakers on 13/10/2011
Jean Moorcroft Wilson will be presenting her paper, 'Edward Thomas: From Adlestrop to Arras', at 5.15pm on Tuesday, 18 October 2011. The talk will take place in the Cardiff Humanities Building, Room 2.48.
How did Edward Thomas, whose best-known poem 'Adlestrop' is about an unaccustomed halt at a deserted country station, come to join the ranks of the greatest First World War poets? Had he, for example, sailed with Robert Frost to America in February 1915 (as he seriously contemplated doing) his story and his work would have been very different. Instead, in July 1915, after months of indecision, he enlisted and by late January 1917 was in France. Just over two months later he was dead, killed on the first day of the Battle of Arras, 9 April 1917. The story of his vacillations and of his eventual enlistment is of particular interest, highlighting, as it does, the myriad different reasons why men like Thomas—'doubting Thomas'—finally decided to fight.
The talk will be followed by a wine reception.
Visiting speaker, 23 Nov 2010: Paul Stevens on Bunyan and WW1
Posted by Anthony Mandal in News, Speakers on 16/11/2010
Paul Stevens will be presenting his paper, 'Heartwork: John Bunyan, the First World War and the Politics of Grace' at 5.15pm on Tuesday, 23 November 2010. The talk will take place in the Cardiff Humanities Building, Room 2.48.
The pervasive influence of Pilgrim's Progress on so much literature of the Great War is well known, but Bunyan's text is usually treated as a repository for somewhat predictable images of the war's irredeemable hopelessness—'waste and horror and loss and fear', in Paul Fussell's words. Many of Bunyan's soldier–readers were, however, much more assiduous and deeply engaged in the dissenter's complex text than this view allows. What they seem to have discovered in Pilgrim's Progress was an understanding of the religious concept of grace unusually well-suited to their political and psychological needs. In this talk, Paul Stevens will first try to show how distinctive Bunyan's model of grace was in its original 17th-century context by comparing it with that of another contemporary dissenter, John Milton, and then how Bunyan's model as 'heartwork' enabled soldiers as diverse as R. H. Tawney and Siegfried Sassoon to come to a radically new understanding of their experience, an understanding that eventually helped encourage a transformation in Britain's national imaginary or understanding of itself.
