Recovered Alcoholics
Since its inception in 1977,
the Employment Program for Recovered Alcoholics (501.c.3) has
provided the vocational rehabilitation link to a successful recovery
process from the disease of alcoholism and substance abuse.
Studies have consistently demonstrated that job stability is
a key factor in establishing long-term sobriety.
EPRA graduates are enabled to return to meaningful work,
get off public assistance, pay taxes, and maintain long-term
the founding of EPRA there was no recognized program for helping
recovered alcoholics rediscover their employment potential.
Initial funding came from the National Council on Alcoholism
and grants from the Union Carbide Corporation and Brinkley Smithers
of the Smithers Foundation. As a founder of EPRA,
Brinkley Smithers continued his generous support. Today, the
generous spirit and support is continued by the Christopher D.
Smithers Foundation and Adele C. Smithers. EPRA's
success has generated subsequent support from other Foundations,
Corporations, and government agencies.
100% of EPRA's Board of Directors provide financial support
to the organization.
Unique Program
unique career recovery program has been developed, tested, and
refines after years of listening to clients.
Each component provides different, yet essential, information
and experiences. Building on personal strengths developed in the
program, EPRA helps people better set their vocational goals and to
master the requirements of the workplace.
In addition to achieving meaningful employment, clients
adopt positive principals that enrich their sober lives for the
present and future.
services include: job
placement, job readiness training, evaluation and assessment
and work experiences which enable clients to make the transition to
the discipline of a normal working life-style.

Training Center
EPRA is a bridge back to work for
individuals in recovery. With positive attitudes and well developed
skills, they're strongly motivated, conscientious, and eager to
make contributions to society. Their success in dealing with a major
life crisis, conquering the disease of alcoholism/substance abuse,
gives them a stability and personal insight commonly found in the
exceptional employee.

Kellogg School of Management ranks Monster.com best, SoBe worst in Super Bowl XLIIIPanel notes that value messages, competitive claims reflect economic pressure
Employment Web site Monster.com earned top marks for its "Need a New Job?" ad, winning the fifth annual Kellogg School of Management Super Bowl Advertising Review. The Super Bowl lineup reflected the country's economic woes, as some perennial advertisers such as FedEx and GM elected to sit on the sidelines this year, and other advertisers created ads that referenced competitors or communicated value.
"This year's Super Bowl featured hard-hitting advertising. We had spots with value messages and competitive claims, both of which are unusual in the Super Bowl," said Kellogg School of Management clinical professor of marketing Tim Calkins, who leads the annual review. "Super Bowl advertisers were clearly trying to drive sales in a soft economy. The game continues to be the single biggest marketing event in the United States, but this year we saw the impact of the weak economy."
Monster.com earned the title of champion from the Kellogg School Review panel, edging out fellow "A" grade advertisers including competitor CareerBuilder.com, Doritos, E*Trade and Denny's. In the battle of employment Web sites, Monster.com's strong showing bested CareerBuilder, which rebounded from a weak showing in last year's Super Bowl with a relevant, entertaining spot.
The Kellogg School panel had significant strategic concerns about spots from SoBe Lifewater, H&R Block, GoDaddy.com, Vizio and Toyota. Although the 3D experience was intriguing, the Kellogg panel was underwhelmed with the SoBe Lifewater "dancing lizard" spot; the panel noted that the overall messaging was confusing, especially with the addition of characters from motion picture "Monsters Vs. Aliens."
Assistant professor of marketing Derek Rucker, who also leads the Review, noted, "Consumers don't have the capacity to remember more than a handful of ads long-term. The ultimate Super Bowl success is when a consumer not only remembers your brand, but is called to action by your ad's message."
At $3 million dollars for 30 seconds of airtime, the investment appeared to pay off for the panel's top winners, as well Hyundai, whose Genesis ad scored well due to strong branding. For others, including annual favorite Anheuser-Busch, who ran the most ads during the game, the year's environment appeared to present challenges.
Unlike other reviews, which may rank ads on likeability alone, the Kellogg School of Management Super Bowl Advertising Review uses a strategic academic framework known as ADPLAN. The acronym, developed by Kellogg faculty, instructs viewers to grade ads based on Attention, Distinction, Positioning, Linkage, Amplification and Net equity.
A full list of the rankings can be found here. (pdf)

You've re-invented the Chicago pizza of my youth! OK, OK, you probably continue to eat that cardboard thin crust of the typical NY pizza, rather than the thick crust of a Chicago pizza... but... the original Pizzeria Uno (back when there was, indeed, only one) in Chicago, when i was eating there in the 1960s, made their pizzas in cast iron skillets. Apparently it was founded in 1943... I never cared for the greasy cardboard pizzas of NYC when i lived in Manhattan in the late 1960s. I guess we just prefer the pizzas of our youth... On the other hand, you and i are in accord about the pleasures of the tomato-y butterfat, the blisters and burnt spots. They give a pizza character. Well, i'm off to get a couple slices at my local worker-owned co-op bakery (Arizmendi). They make only one kind of pizza every day - the crust is their sourdough bread dough. Today's very yummy topping, a favorite of mine, is a Spinach, Kalamata Olives, Feta Cheese, Garlic-Oregano Oil, Fresh Parsley, Parmesan. -- Urtatim (that's err-tah-TEEM) the persona formerly known as Anahita Yeah, yeah, Urtatim doesn't know about Chicago or pizza My LibraryThing http://www.librarything.com/catalog/lilinah

Law enforcement has stepped up patrols outside a northwest Omaha business. So far it appears there are at least six victims -- just from Monday night alone at 145th & Maple.
Early evening is a busy time for a fitness center. On Monday night, some people who parked in the lot outside Urban Active Fitness at became a target.
"I came out here and saw that one of my cars was one of them," said one victim who didn't want to be identified. Thieves had busted her car window and taken a bag with her computer in it.
Her car was one of among four cars broken into that night. But that's not the worst.
Around 7:30 p.m. in the same parking lot, two women who were walking back to their car were approached by one man and he had a gun. He pointed it at their faces and took their purses. It didn't take long to use one of the credit cards. In a few minutes, he had spent $40 at the nearby gas station.
A few minutes later -- the robber used her credit card at a convenience store at 108th and maple for a $400 purchase. And then $80 at McDonalds.
Reporter: "Did it freak you out when you heard two others had a gun pointed at them?"
Victim: "I was actually disgusted by it. I think it's awful. I can't imagine what those girls were feeling. Of course, my own thoughts of how I would react went off in my own head."
The gym has warned its members of what happened and stressed the importance of keeping valuables out of the cars.
"It happens everywhere though so I want to be cautious and it definitely made me think of what I leave in the car when I go to the gym."
As we were there -- we spotted a Nebraska State Patrol trooper driving through the parking lot looking for the armed robber.
Detectives are also going over security tape from the club and surrounding businesses to find the thief or thieves.
The armed robber was described as a six-foot tall, 250 lbs, and in his late 20's.

Langevin Bridge light show has city aglow
Calgary HeraldPublished: Thursday, December 24, 2009
It's a century-old city landmark, and on Wednesday night, it was under the spotlight.
Well, 5,600 lights, that is.
The Langevin Bridge, which crosses the Bow River from 4th Street N.E. to downtown Calgary, has been rigged with LEDs just in time for the holidays.
The 100-year-old Langevin Bridge is bathed in a holiday glow with energy-efficient LED lights installed to spruce up the East Village Riverwalk.
Leah Hennel, Calgary Herald
The lighting creates a changing work of art, as colours and sequences can be computer programmed to create a special show.
It's the newest component of Riverwalk, an effort to revitalize four kilometres along the Bow and Elbow rivers as part of East Village redevelopment.
The lighting is intended to create a destination for people strolling or cycling along the Riverwalk, said Susan Veres, with the Calgary Municipal Land Corp. It also responds to a public safety concern that the bridge wasn't well lit.
"We thought, 'Well, we can light this thing, or we can light it and create an interesting feature along the Riverwalk pathway system,' " Veres said. "There is a greater objective here, which is to provide a safe environment and create a feeling of safety."
The project cost about $370,000.

Jane Journeys On
1. Chapter I
With but one exception, everybody in the upper layer of life in that placid Vermont village was sure that Jane Vail was going to marry Martin Wetherby. The one exception was Jane herself; she was not sure--not entirely.
There were many sound and sensible reasons why she should, and only two or three rather inconsequent ones why she should not. To begin with, he was a Wetherby, and the family went steadily back in an unbroken line to Colonial days; it was their grave old house with the fanlight over its dignified door which had given Wetherby Ridge its name. He was doing remarkably well at the bank; it was conceded that he would be assistant cashier at the first possible moment; his habits were exemplary and he was the most carefully dressed young man in the community. His mother freely admitted at the Ladies' Aid and the Tuesday Club that he was as perfect a son as any woman ever had, and that he would one day make some girl a perfect husband.
Jane, after long and rebellious thought, could find nothing to set down on the other side of the ledger beyond the fact that he was just a little too good-looking, that he was already beginning, at twenty-six, to put on the flesh which had always been intended for him, that his hands were softer than hers, with fingers which widened puffily at the base, and that she nearly always knew what he was going to say before he said it.
She was twenty-four years old, and the immemorial custom of that village gave her a scant remaining year in which to make up her mind. All girls who ran true to pattern were either snugly married or serenely teaching by the time they were twenty-five, and the choice was not always their own. There had been more marriageable maidens than eligible youths in the set, and it was rather, Jane told herself grimly, like a game of Musical Chairs--a gay, excited scramble, and some one always left out. Now, with the exodus of a few and the marrying of many, it had narrowed down to three of them--herself, Martin Wetherby, and Sarah Farraday, who was her best friend during childhood and girlhood; and Sarah, an earnest, blonde girl with nearsighted eyes and insistent upper front teeth, had, so to speak, stopped playing. She had converted her dead father's old stable into a studio by means of art burlap and framed photographs of famous composers, and was giving piano lessons daily from ten to four. This left the field entirely to Jane, and Jane was carrying about with her an increasing conviction that she was not going to do the thing every one expected her to do.
It came curiously to a crisis on a mild and unimportant day in November. Jane spent a footless forenoon in her own room in the green-shuttered, elm-shaded house where she lived with her adoring Aunt Lydia Vail, trying to start a story. Miss Vail took great care to tiptoe whenever she passed her door, and refrained from summoning her to the telephone, but her pleasant old voice, explaining why her niece could not come, was clearly audible.
"Yes, dear, she's at home, but she's at work at her writing, and you know I never disturb her.... Yes, she's been shut away in her room since right after breakfast.... Yes, it's a new story, but I don't know what it's about. I'll ask her at dinner.... How's your mother, dear?... Oh, that's
; That's what I always use and it never fails to relieve me. You give her my love, won't you? I'll have Jane call you up when she comes out for dinner."
The story simply would not start. It lay inert in the back of her brain, listening for the telephone and Aunt Lydia's softly padding footfalls, and at last she gave it up and got out the paper she was to read on "The Modern Irish Dramatists" before the Tuesday Club that afternoon and went carefully over its typed pages.
"Oh," said Aunt Lydia at the dinner table, her plump face clouding over, "I'm
the story didn't go well! It wasn't because you were interrupted, was it, dear? I was especially careful this morning. You know, I believe, without realizing it, you're just the least mite nervous about your program. I know I am myself, though I know, of course, you're going to do just beautifully."
Three and a half hours later, thirty-four matrons and spinsters were warmly asserting that she had. They smiled up at her where she stood on the shallow little platform with approval and affection, and the Chairman of the Program Committee said she was sure they were all deeply indebted to Miss Vail for a most enlightening little lecture. "I am free to confess," she said, smiling, "that it is a subject upon which I, personally, have been ignorant, and I believe many of our club ladies would say the same."
Jane, looking down into their pleasant, best-family faces knew this was the fact. The word "Irish" conveyed to most of them only the red-armed minions in their kitchens; the boys who ran noisily up alleyways with butchers' parcels; the short-tempered dames in battered hats who came--or distressingly did not come--to them on Monday mornings, and who frequently bore away with them bars of perfectly new soap; and the chuckles and sobs and moonlit whimsies of Yeats and Synge and Lady Gregory did not, in their minds, connect up at all.
"And now," said the President, in her sweet New England voice, "I know you will all wish to express your appreciation both to the Chairman of our Program Committee, who has arranged so many literary treats for us, and to Miss Vail for her delightful paper by a rising vote of thanks." Then the thirty-four ladies of the Tuesday Club clutched at their gloves and handbags and came to their feet with soft rustlings of new foulards and taffetas and rich old silks, and the President declared the meeting adjourned but trusted that every one would remain for a cup of tea and a social hour.
Martin Wetherby's handsome mother took brisk and proprietary charge of Jane and shared her laurels happily. "Yes, in
," she beamed, her gray crêpe arm through the girl's, "I can tell you,
pretty proud of her!" She had clearly cast herself already for the rôle of adoring and devoted mother-in-law, and the Tuesday Club was just as clearly taking the same view of it.
Jane, in her wine-red velvet and her glowing, gipsy beauty against the sober blacks and grays and faded cheeks of the gathering, looking like a Kentucky cardinal alighted in a henyard, felt her smile stiffening. Sudden and inexplicable panic and rebellion descended upon her; it seemed certain that if she heard Mrs. Wetherby say "proud of this dear girl of ours" once again she would scream. She disengaged her arm and declined tea and little frosted cakes.
"I'm so sorry--it looks so tempting, doesn't it?--but I really must fly!" She looked earnestly at her wrist watch. "This very minute! Thank you all so much! You've been wonderful--quite turned my head! But I
Out in the quiet, pretty street the sense of pursuit fell away from her and she was smiling derisively at herself when she reached Sarah Farraday's house and passed through the side garden to the studio. An hour with old Sally would be good for her.
Sarah was tenderly dusting her severe-looking upright piano and putting away a pile of lesson books, and turned gladly to greet her. "Jane, dear! Why, how did you get away so early? Didn't they serve tea? I was just
about not going, but the little Macey girl has had so many interruptions and is so far behind, and she does want to play at my recital, so that I felt I couldn't put her off again. How did your paper go?"
"Oh, well enough. They were very nice about it."
"I know they loved it. I want to read it!" She closed the music cabinet and came to take the typed manuscript. "Why,
; What's the matter?"
"I don't know, Sally--Yes, I do know! It's--it's Mrs. Wetherby, and every one else! She acts as if--every one acts--" it made her angrier still to feel the color mounting hotly in her cheeks.
"Well, Jane,
," a faint, sympathetic flush warmed her small, pale face, "isn't that perfectly natural? Of course, I suppose it teases you, but you know how happy every one is about it."
"But there isn't anything to be happy about--yet!"
"Then it's just because you have--have held things off, dear, that's all. And I think Marty has been awfully faithful and patient--for
; Ever since you were tiny kiddies!" She looked anxiously at her best friend's mutinous face. "I'll tell you," she said, brightly, "let's run around to Nannie's for a moment! She'll just be giving the 'Teddy-bear' his oil rub. I'll run through the house and get my things--you wait out in front!"
Nannie Slade Hunter (Mrs. Edward R.) was their second-best friend and they had been among her bridesmaids two years earlier. A few minutes of brisk footing through the fading November afternoon delivered them at the Hunters' new, little house and in the nursery of their little son. Sarah's knowledge of schedule had been correct. Nannie, in an enveloping pinafore, her sleeves rolled high, her hands glistening, was anointing her infant with the most expensive olive oil on the market. The house was furnace heated and a small electric stove was radiating fierce warmth, and her cheeks were blazing. Jane and Sarah flung off their wraps and gave themselves whole-heartedly over to the business of worship and praise.
Little Mrs. Hunter, on whom matronhood and maternity sat with the effect of large spectacles on a small child, inquired indulgently into the activities of her friends. "Paper go nicely, Janey? Sorry I couldn't go.--Yes, he was his muzzie's lamby-lamby-boy! Yes, he was!--And how many pupils have you now, Sally?"
"Seventeen," said Sarah, thankfully, "and if everything goes well I'll have my baby-grand in four years!"
Edward R. Hunter, unmistakable father of the glistening infant, came into the room as she spoke and at once propounded a conundrum.
"Here's a good one, Jane! What's the difference between Nannie and Sally? Give it up? Why, Sally'll have a baby-grand, but Nannie has a grand baby!" The hot and breathless nursery rang with mirth; it seemed to Jane that the very pink room was growing hotter and hotter, and it smelt stiflingly of moist varnish and talcum powder and warm olive oil and expensive soap, and the baby, sitting solemnly erect for his powdering, a steadying hand at his fat back, looked like a pink celluloid Kewpie leering at her knowingly. She heard herself saying with unconsidered mendacity that she had an errand to run for her Aunt Lydia, and that Sally mustn't hurry away on her account, and presently she was down in the dim street again, with Edward R.'s jocose reproach that old Marty Wetherby was fading away to skin and bone echoing in her ears. She went dutifully for a magazine Miss Vail had mentioned and went home the "long way 'round," so that she was barely in time for supper, which consisted of three slices of cold boiled ham, shaved to a refined thinness and spread upon an ancient and honorable platter of blue willow pattern ware, hot biscuit, a small pot of honey and two kinds of preserves, delicate cups of not-too-strong tea, sugar cookies and a pallid custard.
Her aunt was fond and proud over the afternoon's triumph but didn't quite understand her having gone away so abruptly, and feared that Mrs. Wetherby had been "just the least mite hurt about it."
"But then," she hastened to add, at Jane's impatient movement, "it'll be all right, dear! You're going to see her to-night, and I know you can--sort of smooth it over."
"I was thinking," said her niece, dark eyes on her plate, "that perhaps I wouldn't go this evening, Aunt Lyddy."
? Not go to Mrs.
? Why,--
;" Miss Vail laid down her fork and stared, her mild eyes wide with astonishment. "You aren't sick, are you?"
"I think I'm sick of always and always going to the same places with the same person, and hearing the same people say the same things!" Instantly she wished she might recall the sharp words, satisfying as they were to herself, for little Miss Lydia was regarding her much as the aunt of the wretched girl in the fairy tale might have done,--the girl out of whose mouth a frog jumped every time she opened it. Indeed, the sentence seemed actually visible between them, like a squat and ugly small beast on the shining white cloth. "Sorry, Aunt Lyddy," said Jane, penitently. "I'm a crosspatch to-night, and I ought to sit by the fire and spin, instead of gamboling."
Miss Vail's face cleared. "No, indeed, dearie, it'll be much better for you to go and have a merry time with your young companions. That paper was a nervous strain,
all! Now you just eat a good supper and then run upstairs and make yourself as pretty as you can!" Her plump face broke up into sly lines and she nodded happily. "Marty'll come for you at quarter before eight; he telephoned before you got home."
Martin Wetherby was even better than his word, which was one of his most sterling traits. He arrived at twenty-five minutes before eight and waited contentedly in converse with her aunt until Jane came down. "I didn't bring the car," he said. "I thought we'd like to walk." When they reached the sidewalk he lifted her right forearm in a warm, moist grasp and held it firmly close against him. "The car's too quick, Janey," he said, huskily. "Gets us there too soon!"
"Well," said Jane, brightly, "we mustn't be late, your mother likes people to be prompt, you know!" She managed to tug her arm away the fraction of an inch.
"She likes
, any old time," he said, blissfully. He always got husky and thick sounding in emotion, Jane reflected, and breathed heavily.
"Aren't we going to stop by for Sally?"
"No; I asked Edward R. and Nannie to pick her up in their little old boat. No, we aren't going to have anybody--but just--
;" He squeezed her arm against him again. "Janey, I guess you know all right how I----"
"Oh!" cried Jane,--"here they are, now! Hello, people!"
"Hello yourselves!" said Edward R. Hunter, bringing his machine to a stop beside them. "Want to hop in? Plenty room."
"No, of course they don't want to hop in, goose!" said his wife, reprovingly. "Edward R. Hunter, I wonder at you! Were you never young yourself?"
"Oh, but we do!" Jane was capably opening the front door of the little car. "We're late! I kept Marty waiting! I'm going to ride with the chauffeur, and Marty can sit with the girls. When Mrs. Wetherby says 'eight o'clock' she means it, not quarter past." She was chatty and intensely friendly with them all during the brief drive. She even produced the proper degree of articulate mirth for the young father's painstaking jest about his son's nickname being Teddy b-a-r-e, bear, most of the time.
When they stopped before the Wetherby house Martin was out of the automobile with heavy swiftness and lifted Jane bodily to the sidewalk and hurried her up the walk. "All right for you, girlie," he chuckled, "all right for you! But you just wait! Wait till going home to-night!"
Jane drew Sarah Farraday aside when they were in Mrs. Wetherby's phrase, "taking off their things in the north chamber,"--a solid and dependable-looking room. "Sally, I want you to come home with me and stay over night."
"Oh, Jane, I don't believe I could,--not to-night! If I'd known sooner--I haven't anything with me."
"I'll loan you everything you need. Please, Sally! You can telephone your mother now."
"But Edward and Nannie brought me, and it seems sort of----"
"Sally, don't be a nuisance! I want you. I--
Sarah Farraday peered closely at her through her nearsighted eyes. "Jane! You haven't quarreled with Marty, have you? Oh, Jane!"
"No, but I shall if you don't come home with me!"
Her best friend looked long and anxiously at her and then went with a sigh to telephone her mother, and the evening, which Mrs. Wetherby described as "a little gathering of the young folks," got under way. Jane played cards sedately for the earlier part of it and joined with conscientious liveliness in the games which came later, just before Mrs. Wetherby's conception of "light refreshments" was served,--pineapple and banana salad with whipped cream and maraschino cherries on it, three kinds of exceptionally sweet and sticky cake, thick chocolate with melted marshmallows floating on its surface, and large quantities of home-made fudge in crystal bonbon dishes.
To Martin Wetherby, watching her contentedly out of his small, bright eyes, Jane Vail was what he and his mother termed the life of the party, but although she played an unfaltering part in the comedy of, "Well,
; Didn't you get my signal?
who's asleep?" and the sprightly games which followed, and exclaimed prettily over the decked supper table, deep under the high-piled masses of her dark hair, dark thoughts were stirring. She seemed to herself to be marching inexorably to the crossroads, which was silly, because she had spent exactly that sort of day and evening hundreds of times before and would again, she told herself impatiently, but the feeling was not to be eluded. She held herself up to her own high scorn. Why this dramatizing of the pleasant and placid course of Wetherby Ridge events? Why shouldn't she do as the other girls of the set had done? Was she, then, so much finer clay? If she didn't want to be another Nannie--hot pink nursery in a shining little new house--expensive olive oil--home-coming husband in punning mood--pink celluloid Kewpie--half a dozen of everything in flat silver and two
good rugs to start with--then why couldn't she cast herself serenely for the Sarah Farraday sort of thing, substituting a typewriter for a piano? There was nothing so bleak and dreadful about that; old Sally was busily happy, toiling hopefully for her baby-grand.
was enormously lucky, as a matter of fact, lucky beyond her deserts. She could be, it appeared, a Nannie or a Sarah, as she chose, and the time for choosing had arrived. And presently the girls were exclaiming that it was twenty minutes past eleven and they really
go, but it was Mrs. Wetherby's fault for always giving them such a perfectly wonderful time that they forgot to watch the clock, and Mrs. Wetherby was beaming back at them and insisting that she had enjoyed it all just as much as they had, and that she hoped she could always keep young at heart.
Sally lagged behind as they went down the steps. "Come along!" Jane called back to her. "I know you'll talk half of what's left of the night, and I want to get you started as soon as possible."
"She going to stay all night with you?" There was sulky surprise in Martin's voice.
"Yes," said Jane. "But isn't 'stay
night' a silly expression? As if she might rise and stalk home in the middle of it! I wonder why we don't say, 'stay over night'?" She ran on, ripplingly, but her escort at one side and Sarah Farraday at the other were maintaining, respectively, a sullen and an uncomfortable silence. When they were passing her own house Sarah broke away from them with a little gasp.
"Oh,--do you mind waiting just a minute? I believe I'll just run up and get my things, Jane. You know what a fussbudget I am about my own things. And I'll just slip into another dress so I won't have to put this on for breakfast. It won't take me two
--" She flew up the front steps and let herself softly in with her latch key, and instantly ill humor fell from Martin Wetherby.
"Sally's all right," he chuckled. "I'm for Sally!" He swept Jane out of the circle of light from the street lamp, into the black shadow of the Farraday shrubbery, and into a breathless embrace. "You--little--rascal--" he said, huskily, gasping a trifle as he always did in moments of high emotion. "You--little--witch! Now I've got you--and I'm going to keep you! Now I guess you'll listen to what I've got to say and--and answer me!" His broad, warm face was coming inexorably nearer; life--the pleasant and placid pattern of Wetherby Ridge--was coming inexorably nearer; life with melted marshmallows floating on its surface!
"Oh, Marty, please!" She was fatally calm and earnest about it. "I'm so sorry--sorrier than I can tell you,--but you mustn't say it! You mustn't make me answer you."
He was busily getting both her cool hands into the hot grasp of one of his own, and the fingers of his other hand, a little moist, were forcing themselves beneath her chin, but there was something in the honest sorriness of her tone which made him pause even in that triumphant and satisfying moment. "Why? You little----"
"Because," said Jane, steadily, "I do like you such a lot, Marty dear, and I wish you wouldn't ask me, and make me tell you that I don't--I can't----"
Then with a swift and amazing sense of rescue, of sanctuary, she heard herself saying, "Besides, you see, I'm going away!"

Also, never say, do or write something that you wouldn't want to read about in the newspaper the next day. If you have a decision to make, try imagining the headline the next. And, if what you are about to do begins with the words, "Hey, watch this," don't do it. There are some things you just can't undo.

The Carle Place Board of Education, along with special guest New York State Senator Jack Martins, recognized the Carle Place High School boys varsity soccer team as the 2013 New York State Class B champions at their Jan. 23 meeting. Parents and team supporters looked on as Board President Barry Dennis introduced coach Allen Foraker, who began the evening with a few sentiments congratulating the athletes.
"I know you have heard me speak about this team many times before, but I want to once again thank everyone for the tremendous support," said Foraker. "It has been an incredible experience."
Next, Martins presented the team with certificates of recognition to commemorate their outstanding achievement.
"The accomplishments of these fine young men say a lot about Carle Place High School, the district and the community," said Martins. "It is not just about how well they've done in their academics, but it's also about how well their schools have prepared them for college and careers. They are a perfect example of the complete package."
Carle Place Superintendent of Schools David Flatley took a moment to recognize Dylan Klein, who was named a 2013 NSCAA All-American player, an All-Region player, All-State Team player, Conference Player of the Year and Jim Steen/County Player of the Year.

Potash Ridge Corporation – Developing Essential Resources for Global Food Supply
Potash Ridge Corporation (OTCQX:POTRF, TSX:PRK) is a Canadian-based mining company with an advanced-stage development project. Blawn Mountain is a premium quality sulphate of potash (SOP) deposit strategically located in the mining-intensive state of Utah and in close proximity to well-established infrastructure. The Company is led by a highly qualified and proven management team with significant financial, project management and operational experience and the ability to take projects into production. A completed Preliminary Economic Assessment shows a NPV of $1.3 bilion at 10% and an IRR of 21.3%, after tax. The Company is targeting a production rate of 680,000 tonnes per year SOP by mid-2016.
Investment Highlights
- Large mineral deposit containing premium-quality potash
- Strategically located in a mining-friendly jurisdiction with established infrastructure nearby
- State-owned land allows for an efficient permitting process
- Historical work expedites project development
- Lower risk surface mining deposit; expected lowest cost producer
- 30 year mine life, with upside potential
- PEA completed: $1.3 billion NPV at 10%; 21.3% after tax IRR
Key Property
Blawn Mountain Potash Project – Utah, United States
The Blawn Mountain Project is located in Beaver County, Utah in the Wah Wah Mountains. The property is comprised of four areas of alunite mineralization covering approximately 11,550 acres of state-owned land licensed to Potash Ridge. Operating on state-owned lands involves a more streamlined permitting process with the support of both the municipality and the state.
Utah boasts significant production with four potash operations currently producing. As a mining-intensive state, Utah is also home to an experienced labor force, mining-friendly regulations, and well-developed infrastructure. The Blawn Mountain project is near transportation and energy infrastructure including the Union Pacific Railroad, several key state and interstate highways and two energy corridors. Necessary services are also located in the surrounding area including those that supply construction materials, heavy equipment, industrial supplies and mining support services.
Sulphate of Potash is a premium quality form of potash necessary for various crops including many varieties of vegetables, fruits, nuts, tea and tobacco. Between 2012 and 2016, global demand for SOP products — which historically has fetched a premium of 30 percent to 61 percent over conventional Muriate of Potash (MOP) — is expected to grow 5 percent annually.
During the 1970's, extensive development work was completed on the the Blawn Mountain project including completion of permitting the project, drilling to prove up resources, a feasibility study, mine plan, and a pilot plant which operated for 3 years. By the early 1980′s, however, the project lost momentum as a collapse in commodity prices and economic conditions made financing the project difficult. As the new owner of the property, Potash Ridge holds all of the data acquired during the past operations.
After acquiring the property and historic data in 2011, Potash Ridge conducted a 34-hole drill program on the property in order to validate historical resource estimates.
Exploration work on Area 1 has delineated NI 43-101 compliant resources of 162Mt combined measured (66%) and indicated (34%) resources carrying an average grade of 3.22 K2O and 13.90% Al2O3, at a cut-off of 1% K2O. The calculated potassium sulfate grade (K2SO4) at a 1% K2O cut-off grade is 5.96%.
Between July 2012 and September 2012, drill program in Area 2 resulted in a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate of 464Mt combined measured and indicated resources carrying an average grade of 3.07 K2O and 13.16% Al2O3, at a cut-off of 1% K2O. The calculated potassium sulfate grade (K2SO4) at a 1% K2O cut-off grade is 5.68%.
A Preliminary Economic Assessment on the project was completed in October 2012, the results of which show a Capital Cost of $1.075 billion, production Cash Cost of $101/tonne, a Net Present Value of $1,331 million at 10% after tax and an unlevered Internal Rate of Return after tax of 21.3%.
Potash Ridge plans to use low-cost surface mining extraction methods. The PEA determined a mine life of 30 years using NI 43-101 compliant resources, with a two-year ramp-up period. Production at Blawn Mountain will begin from Area 1 and transition to Area 2 once the identified alunite has been exhausted from Area 1. The Company is targeting a production rate of 680,000 tpy SOP by mid-2016.

Once harassment in the workplace has been identified, documented, reported, and investigated but the behavior continues, the victim of workplace harassment has three choices: find other employment, tolerate the illegal behavior, or file formal charges against the employee or business.
Leaving the job place may improve the victim's immediate situation, but it does nothing to cure the problem, itself. Odds are, the abuser will continue the aberrant behavior with another victim.
Tolerating the illegal behavior is even stronger reinforcement of negative, counterproductive, and detrimental patterns. Often the work performance of the victim degrades to the point of termination, which helps no one except the abuser.
Filing formal charges is a drastic, emotionally taxing option, but the employee may feel it's the only reasonable option available.
Steps to Take
- The victim should ensure complete understanding of the results of the investigation including steps taken and conclusions. Obtain a copy of the written results of the investigation. Note the date, time, and personnel involved in the results interview, as well as what was said.
- If the victim still believes he or she is being harassed or if the harassment continues, seek legal representation and present all documentation to date.
- The employee might want to contact Human Resources and obtain a copy of his complete personnel file, including past performance reviews and attendance records. Prior pay stubs may have adequate information to show reliable history of timely attendance.
- If the attorney accepts the case, the employee should take extra care in interaction with the work party or parties involved. Under no circumstances should the employee allow conferences, interviews, or discussions regarding the matter with the employer. The employee should take extra care to ensure timely attendance and maintain good work performance.
- At no time should the employee engage in taunting or threatening behavior or make detrimental comments to the abuser or the business.
- If the employee does not seek legal representation, the state's Department of Labor or Attorney General's office may be of assistance, but the employee should be prepared to cooperate fully and be forthcoming with all documentation, just as for an attorney.
- If the employee has reason to believe his job may be in jeopardy, the employee may consider purchasing a tape recorder if carrying one while on the job is allowed. If used, the employee should declare that the conversation is being recorded and have at least the microphone visible during any applicable conversation. If not allowed, the employee should ensure there is a neutral party present during all contact instances.
- The reporting employee should follow all additional advice from the attorney and/or state authority.

After releasing the S1 model battery powered, DC full hydraulic mini-crane, Smart-Rig Cranes, a leader in portable crane & floor crane manufacturing and distribution worldwide, is introducing the T1 model mini crane.
"T1 model mini cranes have the same patented narrow base that fits through a door and inside elevators, the same spider leg outrigger system and water-tank counter weight system to couter balance loads, our customers love, but we scaled down the small crane to help a more budget consious industrial buyerss and help operators with minimal lifting requirments own a portable hoist." Josh Clark, founder and CEO, stated last week.
With a 18-22 ft. boom height, the new T1 portable hoist utilizes a new mast design incorportaing a manual hand pump jack to raise the boom and electric winch, as opposed to a hydraulic jack and batteries. The maximum load capacity is rated at 1,200 lbs., which serves the HVAC(heating and air conditioning) industry well, glazing, residential, commercial, auto, aircraft industries well. The T1 crane helps construction workers and employees save time and money setting pipe, pumps, towers, duct work, also with airplane maintenance and manufacturing, aerospace, and general maintenance such as in energy, municiples and schools.
Easy to push around on jobsites and on interior floors, the T1 hoist can also be used on multiple surfaces including exterior surfaces such as grass, dirt, gravel, asphalt, concrete. Utilizing rear steering, the new design allows the crane to swivel, pick and carry and rotate materials and loads. This aspect, according to Josh, gives users a greater sense of control over their applications. "An operator can literally grab a load off the back of a truckbed outside, and carry that load inside a building, through doorways and inside elevators, up several stories, through hallways and aisles, and straight to the jobsite where it can be positioned to rig that same load into position for installation." Josh said.
Unlike a forklift, these portable cranes are meant to work in tight spaces and rig loads from above. There is no noise, no gas, no pollution. "We are proud to say our cranes are considered environmentally friendly". Josh stated. "There are no operations training required, no fuel needed, and anyone over 18 years of age can operate a Smart-Rig after referring to the manual. They are meant to be simple yet powerful and effective lifting tools."

The most common type of kidney cancer is called renal cell cancer, a cancer that forms in the lining of very small tubes in the kidney that filter the blood and remove waste products from the body. Renal cell cancer accounts for more than nine out of 10 cases of kidney cancer. In Los Angeles County in an average year, about 5,000 people will be diagnosed with kidney cancer. Of those, 1,160 will die.
TreatmentTreatment options include surgery to remove all or part of the kidney, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and hormone therapy. Two targeted therapies, Sutent and Nexavar, recently were approved to treat kidney cancer. UCLA researchers also are testing the drug Avastin in kidney cancer.

Definitions for feminismˈfɛm əˌnɪz əm
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word feminism
Random House Webster's College Dictionary
fem•i•nismˈfɛm əˌnɪz əm(n.)
a doctrine advocating social, political, and economic rights for women equal to those of men.
Category: Sociology
a movement for the attainment of such rights.
Category: Sociology
feminine character.
Origin of feminism:
1890–95; < F féminisme
Princeton's WordNet
a doctrine that advocates equal rights for women
feminist movement, feminism, women's liberation movement, women's lib(noun)
the movement aimed at equal rights for women
Kernerman English Learner's Dictionary
feminism(noun)ˈfɛm əˌnɪz əm
the belief that women should have equal rights to men
She is a strong leader and feminist.; feminist ideas
A social theory or political movement supporting the equality of both sexes in all aspects of public and private life; specifically, a theory or movement that argues that legal and social restrictions on females must be removed in order to bring about such equality.
Origin: From féminisme c. 1837, ultimately from femininus, from femina. First recorded in English in 1851, originally meaning "the state of being feminine." Sense of "advocacy of women's rights" is from 1895.
Feminism is a collection of movements and ideologies aimed at defining, establishing, and defending equal political, economic, and social rights for women. This includes seeking to establish equal opportunities for women in education and employment. The Utopian Socialist and French philosopher Charles Fourier is credited with having originated the word "feminism" in 1837. The words "feminism" and "feminist" first appeared in France and the Netherlands in 1872, Great Britain in the 1890s, and the United States in 1910., and the Oxford English Dictionary lists 1894 as the year of the first appearance of "feminist" and 1895 for "feminism". Today the Oxford English Dictionary defines a feminist as "an advocate or supporter of the rights and equality of women". Feminist theory, which emerged from these feminist movements, aims to understand the nature of gender inequality by examining women's social roles and lived experience; it has developed theories in a variety of disciplines in order to respond to issues such as the social construction of sex and gender. Some of the earlier forms of feminism have been criticized for taking into account only white, middle-class, educated perspectives. This led to the creation of ethnically specific or multiculturalist forms of feminism.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
The theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes and organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests. (Webster New Collegiate Dictionary, 1981)

Best Croissants?
- c
- chowdahhead Feb 16, 2012 08:45 PM
Hey y'all,
Was curious where to find the best plain, buttery croissants in town?
Best I've had so far has been from Quack's Bakery in Hyde Park (purchased at Medici). Boîte was recommended but underwhelmed. Where else should I check out?
Barrie Cullinan makes the best croissants in town, in my opinion. They're really buttery and flaky, plus she also makes chocolate ones. I stick to the original type.
She supplies several locations around town (Antonelli's, Vespaio, countless others) with her baked goods, but the word for a while is that she's been planning her own physical location. A friend of mine whom I shouldn't name on here told me that she's cutting back on orders, so I think it's happening soon. Fingers crossed!
The croissants are amazing, yes. But try the A.M. buns. Ughhhhhh can't wait til they're more freely available.
re: popvulture
I totally agree with you. I also love her almond croissants, because you can freeze them since I'm not that close to downtown and I like to stock up for the week.
Well, it's official - she has stopped selling them to La Boite and other restaurants. I sure hope she sells them somewhere soon, as I'm totally addicted to them.
re: ciliegia
Antonelli's Cheese Shop's latest newsletter said she was working on opening her own bakery. They now get their breads from Easy Tiger.
re: chispa_c
Sad her stuff isn't available at other sites anymore, but excited for her own place to open. Those croissants are pretty fantastic. And hooray for Austin getting some solid bakeries!
re: popvulture
As noted below, Barrie has stopped supplying several locations with wholesale and, presumably, it is for the purpose of opening her retail operation. Has anyone found a trace of her retail plans, presence, or offerings?
I find an old architectural rendering of the inside of a store and various posts about her aspirations, but nothing concrete.
Any news?
re: akachochin
Check out www.amitybakery.com
No mention of new retail space that I can find but you can sign up for her newsletter and purchase her products for pick up.
re: chispa_c
I looked a couple of weeks ago and her website had not then been updated. This looks like quite a hassle and is a far cry from what I had hope for when "retail" was mentioned.
Given the other comments re croissants around town, I thought I'd throw in my developing impressions. This past Saturday, after my morning taco, and finding it was too early for the Republic Sq. farmer's market, I stopped by Easy Tiger and Elizabeth St. and picked up a plain croissant from each. For that sample and my taste, the Easy Tiger croissant was better. It had a lighter texture, better developed layers, and good crispness. By contrast, the Elizabeth St. example was heavier, with much less distinct layering, with a crisp but quite hard outer crust; perhaps the overuse of a glaze or more sugar in the dough. (The ES croissant was distinctly sweeter)
I have not been out to B et C early enough to make a direct comparison of their croissants, but thought the ones I have had around noon were well made.
I've got a couple of early meetings this week and intend to try the experiment again.
Elizabeth St. Cafe has had great pastries including croissants. I have not had a croissant from Easy Tiger but their pain chocolate was great and I suspect their croissant is too. Note at both these places I got them by 9:00am and I suspect they only make a morning batch. A 3pm croissant is not nearly as good.
Also, if you've the need for a brunch party the William Sonoma croissants (online only) are worth their $3/each price tag.
The croissants at La Boite are the same croissants popvulture mentions from Barrie Cullinan. I love them, esp the almond version.
You might want to give it another try to the La Boite croissants (made by Barrie Cullinan) as they are one of the best in town (not the best in the world but in comparison to the rest you will find in Austin they are pretty good and made with real european style butter). If you don't mind the driving, go to Baguette et Chocolate in Bee Caves, that is a french bakery and is pretty good for Croissants and other french goodies (you have to go kind of early though as they sometimes run out of things even though I've not been there in a while).
There are really not many places for good croissants in Austin AFAIK.
I find Barrie's croissants to be too chewy (overworked gluten?) and greasy. Buttery is one thing, but it seems like these croissants are leaking the butter from the layers. However, I don't doubt that they could be the best in town, unfortunately.
Easy Tiger's croissants are inconsistent and need work. The ones I've tried have been too dense - they really seem amateurish right now. Their pain au chocolate usually looks better, but I haven't tried one yet.
Village Baking Co. at the Barton Creek Mall farmers market has some good looking croissants.
Almond croissants are pretty hard to screw up. They were created as a way to use up stale croissants, so the structure of the original croissant is less of an issue. You can basically take any croissant from a mediocre bakery and make it into very good almond croissant.
re: Joe MacBu
I missed this earlier. With respect to almond croissants, I disagree. A mediocre croissant is a mediocre croissant. A mediocre croissant loaded with Christine Ferber's finest or piled with Joselito Gran Reserva or turned into an almond croissant might be more palatable, but it's still a mediocre croissant. Much like a Katz's pastrami sandwich is awesome, despite being served on crappy bread (and would be even better served on something decent).
I like Upper Crust bakery, good stuff. There is a place in Pflugerville with a French name also has good pastry.
FWIW, it looks like La Boite has switched to Elizabeth St Cafe for pastries, including croissants.
Another vote for Baguette et Chocolat.
Getting there past noon will probably leave you empty handed. These are the type of croissants that explode with flakey goodness towards the ends and melt in your mouth toward the center. You can see virtually every layer of dough too. Worth the time/drive imo.
re: chispa_c
i just love baguette et chocolat's pastries. i think their croissants are excellent--all varieties.
Perhaps not in the closest of relevance to the original thread, the warm ham or turkey with cheese croissants at Quack's that sell out usually by 11 a.m. are my favorite in austin. One would probably not be advised to eat one every morning, they're pretty caloric, but yummy and filling.
Upper Crust Bakery on Burnet has good plain croissants. Not the authentic kind you find in Paris, but a good American Texan subspecies, nevertheless. Using the same croissant dough, they make sausage rolls (with really fat, greasy sausage and anise or caraway seeds!) and a mysterious thing called Texas Croissant - it is amazing. It's an oversized croissant filled with jalapenos and cheese and what seems to be picallilly or mustard sauce. It's all cheesy, melty, and pizza-y. It blows your mind. One's big enough to share among two people.
