I have known Marion Barry since the early 1980s, and he was always courteous to me, even twenty years ago on election day when he arrived at Precinct 15 and I was standing outside wearing a Carol Schwartz campaign shirt. Indeed, he came right for me, all smiles. That was always one of his more charming qualities.
After his death early Sunday at age 78, I received requests for comment from several journalists. I was under the weather all day and did not send them my thoughts until Monday morning. Since I missed the news cycle, here are my comments.
In many ways Marion Barry resembled Bill Clinton: smart, politically astute, charming, and with a phenomenal memory. He didn't just remember people's names, he remembered their pets and what ailed them. People who disliked him used to dismiss his talents, which was a big mistake. He was the smartest politician in hometown D.C.
In his early years as mayor, before his addictions got the better of him, he appointed more gay officials than any mayor in the country. I remember him announcing the birth of his son Christopher from the stage at Gay Pride. He was an ally of the LGBT community throughout his mayoral years.
I was greatly disappointed when he opposed marriage equality, and said "Shame on you" to him after he led a chant (3:30 on the clip) at an anti-gay rally in Freedom Plaza in the spring of 2009. He replied, "I supported you on everything else." That did not mollify me, but it was noteworthy that he and the only other "no" vote on marriage, Ward 7 councilmember Yvette Alexander, touted their pro-gay credentials from the dais rather than launching into anti-gay screeds. They were voting with their constituents; but they still, implausible as it seemed, were eager not to be thought anti-gay. That was a tribute to how far the LGBT community had come.
People are calling this the end of an era, but the Barry era really ended 16 years ago when Anthony Williams was elected mayor. After that, Marion was still a force in Ward 8, but not citywide. In recent years he could barely walk, but his mind was still sharp. I was still pleasant with him despite the harm he did to the city, because it cost me nothing and he was still one of our 13 councilmembers. He was a charmer to the end (when he wasn't trash talking), and enjoyed reminiscing about past battles when he was on our side. It was clear that he would be re-elected in Ward 8 as long as he lived; now the question is when his constituents, so devoted to him, will move on.

Leigh Davenport at HelloBeautiful writes:
Rewind back to 2007 when Bill Cosby had just commenced his nationwide tour of telling poor Black America to pull themselves up by their baggy jeans and get themselves together. Black America was unsettled by what seemed to be a never ending crusade waged by America's favorite Jell-O pudding eating dad and fierce debates were launched on cable talk shows and around the web (yes, the internet was around back then) as many notable figures called Cosby out for being elitist and out of touch....
Now ... imagine heading down to Miami to attend the International Book Fair and take in a lecture from the always enchantingly "honest" writer, poet and scholar Nikki Giovanni and getting a completely unprompted rant on Bill Cosby and his antics.

President Obama gave one of his finest speeches last night in announcing his executive action on immigration. Here is my favorite passage:
Scripture tells us that we shall not oppress a stranger, for we know the heart of a stranger -- we were strangers once, too. My fellow Americans, we are and always will be a nation of immigrants. We were strangers once, too.
My friend Walter Dellinger, who was head of the Office of Legal Counsel from 1993 to 1996, explains in Slate that the President is on solid legal ground:
The idea that the immigration plan just announced by President Obama is a lawless power grab is absurd. As the Justice Department legal analysis that was just released amply demonstrates, much of the advance criticism of the president's action has been uninformed and unwarranted. The opinion is well-reasoned and at times even conservative. The president is not acting unilaterally, but pursuant to his statutory authority. Wide discretion over deportation priorities has long been conferred on the executive branch by Congress, and it is being exercised in this case consistent with policies such as family unification that have been endorsed by Congress.
Dellinger's whole piece bears reading. Thank you and bravo, Mr. President.

Director Mike Nichols died on Wednesday at age 83. He was born in Germany and moved to the United States at age 7. He was a member of the comedy duo Nichols and May with Elaine May. In his long directing career, which encompassed stage, film, and television, he won about every award that could be won in his profession: Oscar, Emmy, Tony, Drama Desk, Golden Globe, Grammy, and Britain's BAFTA. He received the Kennedy Center Honors in 2003, and an American Film Institute Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010.
Nichols seemed eternally young, always with another project. He was working on a production of "Master Class" with Meryl Streep for HBO when he died. Fortunately, much of his work remains available for viewing. I remember seeing "The Real Thing" in 1984 in Broadway, featuring Jeremy Irons and Glenn Close. That he was adept in so many media put him in rare company. The partial lists of his work below convey his incredible range and output. At the bottom is a famous scene from "The Graduate" featuring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft. He is survived by his wife Diane Sawyer and his children Max, Jenny, and Daisy. May he rest in peace.
On Broadway: Barefoot in the Park (1963), The Odd Couple (1965), Plaza Suite (1968), The Prisoner of Second Avenue (1971), Uncle Vanya (1973), Streamers (1976), Annie (1977), The Real Thing (1984), Hurlyburly (1984), The Seagull (2001), Spamalot (2005), Death of a Salesman (2012), and Betrayal (2013).
On film: Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966), The Graduate (1967), Catch-22 (1970), Carnal Knowledge (1971), The Day of the Dolphin (1973), Silkwood (1983), Heartburn (1986), Biloxi Blues (1988), Working Girl (1988), Postcards from the Edge (1990), Regarding Henry (1991), The Birdcage (1996), Primary Colors (1998), Angels in America (2003), Closer (2004), and Charlie Wilson's War (2007).

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
This Hydro partnership is working
Will Braun, of the Interchurch Task Force on Hydropower, in his commentary Dam deal loses shine (May 24), condemned the Wuskwatim project. Your readers should have the facts about Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation's partnership with Manitoba Hydro.
First, echoes of the past: In the 1990s, opponents maintained we had "settled for something far less than what (we) were originally promised" when we signed on to the 1996 Northern Flood Agreement. We were portrayed as naive puppets of government and Manitoba Hydro, "being led -- like children -- into agreements that sacrifice the future of our communities in return for little more than beads or trinkets."
Then, as now, I feel such portrayals do a disservice to my community, which voted for the agreement to build a better future.
We find it outrageous that Braun represents the people whose residential school policies helped to destroy the fabric of our communities. As my colleague Coun. D'Arcy Linklater puts it, we are trying hard to restore our spiritual, political and economic sovereignty and we wonder why people persist with paternalistic attitudes, creating turmoil in our community by questioning economic-development decisions made with the support of our people.
By now, most Manitobans are aware of the tragic history we endured in the development of hydro in this province. We have tried to overcome this history of mistrust and move forward as a modern First Nation to create opportunities for our citizens. Since 1996, we have used the compensation from past flooding from hydroelectric projects to provide millions of dollars in programs and services for our people. We have invested in businesses that employ other Manitobans and we have used the profits of those businesses to create jobs in our community.
At one time, we were 100 per cent dependent on the federal government for our funding. That is no longer the case. Our agreements with Hydro, including the Wuskwatim project, are part of this success story.
In 2006, we voted to authorize our council to sign the Wuskwatim Project Development Agreement. As with any business deal, we explained there were risks involved. Like many projects built over the past decade, capital costs escalated and interest rates, exchange rates and export sales fluctuated. No one foresaw the 2008 global recession and its lingering effects, nor the impact new technologies, such as fracking for natural gas, would have on export electricity rates.
We need more control over our lands and resources to further develop our economy. We are not so naive as to think the Wuskwatim project will end the poverty many of our citizens live with daily. But we believe it is one more step in the right direction. We are proud of our partnership with Manitoba Hydro. While we do not always view things the same way, we can say categorically the people at Manitoba Hydro have tried to ensure there will be benefits for our people, today and tomorrow.
Based on the assumptions made before the 2006 vote, we projected we would have about $7 million available annually from our two hydro-related trusts until our Wuskwatim investment loans were paid off. We understood that because hydro projects are capital-intensive, losses would occur in the early years and we negotiated arrangements to respond to those realities.
We have invested millions of dollars of our own money in this project by carefully managing our resources. Contrary to Braun's assertions, we are on track to receive money annually, and once the loans are repaid, the payments will grow. They may not be as high as projected; this depends on events in the North American economy.
In the meantime, we will have funds to address serious infrastructure and housing issues in our community and to invest in other ventures similar to those we already own, such as the Mystery Lake Hotel, Meetah Building Supplies, and our Family Foods stores in Thompson and Nelson House.
Our critics operate without full knowledge, making inaccurate or misleading statements that cause turmoil in our community. Like other First Nations, NCN is trying to overcome years of poverty, injustice and exploitation. Again, to quote my colleague, Coun. Linklater: "While we cannot ignore the effects of colonization, we can learn from it for the benefit of all Manitobans."
Participation in resource development is one of the few significant opportunities we have, and it benefits all North Americans. We suggest Braun heed his own advice to his church leaders and "promote open, non-polarized discussion of Hydro issues." Unfortunately, given past history, we doubt that he or others who have been campaigning against hydro development in northern Manitoba will change.
Time will prove they are wrong, just as critics of our earlier hydro deals were wrong. I hope Manitobans will ignore these critics who do us a disservice. Our citizens deserve to be proud of the fact we could overcome such a negative history and move forward for the betterment of all Manitobans.
Marcel Moody is chief of the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation. He is a member of the board of directors of the General Partner of the Wuskwatim Power Limited Partnership. He was NCN's lead negotiator for the 1996 NFA Implementation Agreement and was a member of the negotiating team for the Wuskwatim Project Development Agreement.

Nosa Eguae has been through it all at Auburn. He redshirted in 2009 following an injury and was part of Auburn's national title run in 2010. In 2012, he suffered through a disastrous team that failed to win a game in the Southeastern Conference. Years later, he ended his college career in a familiar spot: at the top of the SEC with a berth in the BCS National Championship Game.
Eguae has six tackles, a sack and a tackle for a loss in two national title games.
Here is the defensive lineman's open letter to the best fans in the country.
Dear Auburn Family,
In August, I told myself that when this season and my time here at Auburn came to a close, I would write an open letter the Auburn Family to simply say "thank you!" After last night I found myself having trouble putting into words the gratitude I was longing to convey. This University will forever have a place in my heart, and the city of Auburn will forever be a home to me.
In 2009, I came to college as a 17-year-old kid from Arlington, Texas. Now, in 2014, I am leaving as a 22-year-old Auburn man. I wish I could list every person that helped make this the most memorable time of my life. However, that list is far too long. I would like to thank Jay Jacobs for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this family. Everyone in the support staff in the athletic complex from compliance, equipment, trainers and media relations, to the academic staff that never once let me lose sight of what was most important- leaving Auburn University with my degree in hand. Auburn FCA, who helped me grow spiritually and constantly pushed me towards Christ. Brother Chette Williams, you will forever be a mentor for me. You played an instrumental role in the decision to rededicate my life to Christ and be baptized two years ago.
To all of my coaches throughout my time here, I thank you. My two strength coaches taught me the true meaning of work hard work, and that is something I will carry forever and no one will every be able to take it from me. Coach Rodney Garner, you instilled in me accountability and consistency. I cannot thank you enough for bringing me so far in just a year's time. Coach Gus Malzhan, you gave my fellow seniors and me the opportunity to be leaders among men. I speak on behalf of all of my brothers that wore the AU helmet for the last time yesterday when I say "thank you."
Soon enough, I will look back and reflect on our accomplishments, but today, I am choosing to live in the moment. This is the last time my brothers and I will get to spend a day with each other for tomorrow we will go our separate ways and pass the torch to the next group of seniors that will lead and fight for the greater good of The Family. From tragedy to triumph, I could not ask for a better group of men to ride off into the sunset with.
From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank every one of my teammates, past and present. Nothing will ever break the bond I have with every single one of my brothers I had the pleasure of going to war with.
And in closing, to the greatest fans in America, "thank you!" I appreciate you. Through the ups, downs and times that seemed much like a roller coaster, you all stayed true. That is why Auburn is different. That is why we're family! I cannot thank you enough for that.
War Eagle! God bless you all! Nosa Eguae #94 c/o 2013
Why pride? When the only reason you have anything good is because the King humbled Himself and died for you." -Louie Giglio

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Americans should work on Canadian model
WASHINGTON — Those who believe America is in decline, get ready to fret: Sometime this past summer, the average net worth of Canadians surpassed that of Americans. Adding insult to injury, Canadians have universal health care and a lower unemployment rate, too.
But you know what really makes it sting? They barely even worked for it. The average employed Canadian works 85 hours fewer each year than the average American — more than two full work-weeks. And that may be the lesson Canada has for the United States: Working 24/7 isn't the road to prosperity, much less happiness, and there are numbers to prove it.
In fact, across rich countries, it turns out there's no close link between the average hours people put in at the office and how much they make. So go ahead: Take that vacation.
According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, the rich world's think-tank, the average number of hours worked each year by someone employed in the United States is 1,787.
In Britain, it's 1,625 hours — or about 20 fewer working days. In Germany, the engine of Europe's economy, the average employee works just 1,413 hours a year — that's more than 12 workweeks off. Nobody ever accuses Germans of being lazy; a lot of that is because the European Union mandates four weeks of paid vacation a year. But if you live in the United States, the government guarantees exactly zero paid vacation time. Thanks to the lack of any legal holiday requirement, nearly a quarter of workers get no paid vacation or holidays at all. Japan, the next stingiest among industrial countries, mandates 10 paid days off, with more the longer you have worked.
But doesn't working harder make you richer? It's true that at the individual level, there is a link between working hard and being paid more. Nearly two-thirds of high-earning U.S. workers surveyed for the Center for Work-Life Policy clocked more than 50 hours a week, and one-third logged more than 60 hours. At the other end of the income scale, of course, many of those in poverty can't find a job to put in the hours at all. It's also true, however, that in many low-income families, parents are working two jobs just to stay above the poverty line. Poor people are poor because they don't get paid much per hour, not because they don't work hard enough.
A similar story applies across countries. The United States is more productive than the European Union, with annual output of around $42,500 per person, about 19 per cent higher than Germany and 30 per cent higher than France. But not much of that difference is due to working more hours. Take an example from a benighted country in Southern Europe: OECD data suggest in 2011, the average Greek who was actually employed worked 2,032 hours that year. The average German worked 30 per cent less than that. For all that hard work, however, Greek GDP per hour worked was only $34 — compared with $55 in Germany. When it comes to relative economic strength, more efficient German production (alongside higher overall employment) completely outweighs those long hours the Greeks put in at the office.
And it's not just Greece. The link between work hours and output is pretty weak in general. In 1974, Britain was gripped by the threat of a coal miners' strike that forced the government to impose a three-day workweek to ensure there was enough electricity to go around. Despite the dramatically reduced number of hours worked, industrial production in those two months fell only six per cent. In 2000, France cut its 39-hour workweek by four hours, but the country's GDP per capita climbed from $27,396 to $28,520 between 1999 and 2001.
After then-president Nicolas Sarkozy effectively rescinded the 35-hour workweek in 2008, however, France's per capita GDP fell from $30,466 in 2007 to $29,169 in 2009. Clearly, the financial crisis was to blame for that decline, but the point is working hours didn't do much, if anything, to move the needle in either direction. So why do Americans fetishize hard work when the link between labour and economic strength is so tenuous? The bottom line is productivity, driven by technology and markets that function well, drives wealth far more than hours worked. And very few jobs in developed economies nowadays are classic assembly-line positions, where working 20 per cent longer will mechanically produce 20 per cent more widgets.
Psychology plays a role here too: At least 40 years of studies suggest people work harder if you limit their time to complete a certain task. In some cases, working too hard can actually reduce output. Long working hours are also associated with ill health, which means lost labour in the long term, as well as higher medical costs for employers and government. A study of hospital interns found young doctors who worked longer shifts made almost 36 per cent more serious mistakes, such as giving the wrong dose or the wrong medicine altogether to patients.
Working too hard has societal costs as well. Nearly two decades ago, Harvard University Prof. Robert Putnam warned that the "social capital" of the United States was decaying as Americans spent less time with family, friends, neighbours and community organizations and more time "bowling alone." Over the last quarter of the 20th century, Putnam recorded a 58 per cent decline in attendance at club meetings and a 43 per cent drop in family dinners. He blames television and commuting for much of the decline. But note also that the hyperactive U.S. worker put in 20 per cent more hours at the office than the average French worker in 2011. All that extra parental time at home might be why French kids are so much better behaved.
But if long hours aren't the secret to rapid growth and high employment, the reverse does appear to be true. As countries get richer, their citizens work less. Since the mid-20th century, average annual working hours have declined across the western world. In the United States, however, the decline has been less dramatic.
So maybe it's time for Yanks to relax a bit more. Take a full week off for Thanksgiving next month (as opposed to trying to sneak off on a Wednesday afternoon), or do like the French and take August off next year. It'll make the country healthier, happier — and maybe one day even as rich as Canada.

AJ, bottom feeders eat good at my lake shack, eh bro....he he he......Greedy,
TD, careful you don't want to make the local "cop" made he might report you to Yahoo for posting false information....lol What a joke this forum has become! Greed is good!
AJ, the joke is on you Bro! lol
It remains my biggest concern right now but I do have confidence they will come out a winner. My cost basis is in the low 13's so I am not too worried. I like the long term story with this company.......Greedy, always!
Chem, really do you have any idea how much this thing would jump if they win the STM suit? Greedy,
Toppchimp? I hear Chimps have 2 inchers.............Greedy,
Any guesses? 24% is a lot of shorts....Greedy,
Just wanted to see what it looks like from your perspective...lol Greedy,
So true Paul! You have already racked up 3 so let the children play!!!! My best to you ya, Greedy
GD, if that is true then he is not the sharpest knife in the drawer for sure. Better yet maybe he's just looking for losses to offset some capital gains......He told me back when he was posting that he had a nice beach house somewhere in Arizona I think..........Greedy,
Paul, they don't want to hear any good news about the # 1 back haul specialist in the world. That just spells trouble for their stock because you know Vivo has tested the dragon and chose CRNT due to a far superior product. I hope you are making money Paul, I have made some really good trades as of late! Best regards, Greedy!
No AJ, I don't have any concrete evidence at all. I just dream up stuff like this and post it here to make people like you say "how do he know?" I am seeing someone unload on every tick up so someone's getting out and for good reason it's had it's run. Like you always say take profits when you can........Right Bro?
He did make a little profit though. Check out CRNT the bottom is in now. What a boring bunch over here always on down days you guys are quiet as a mouse. Greedy,
See Amigo!!!!! I am with ya now!
Chem, if you always do what you've done you will always get what you've gotten.---Greedy, lol
I doubt it....If they are the chosen ones I'll bet Apple has a gag order on them......Apple holds their cards very close to their chest. Always have and always will IMO........Greedy
I'll bet if we knew for sure INVN was in their new products we would be a few bucks higher......Greedy,
Chem, he's on them, can't fix idiot! ........Hey I am now pleased I held AAPL into earnings and still short SDS too!!!! Cha-Ching! Greedy,

CSU volleyball prepares for NCAA tournament
The Rams spent Thursday, Nov. 29, preparing for No. 22 Purdue, their NCAA tournament first-round opponent.
Brook Coulter joined the Colorado State volleyball coaching staff on Jan. 26, 2012, as associate head coach, and begins her third season with the program in 2014. With her diverse background, Coulter works with all aspects of the program, including first-contact defense, outside hitting and as the team's recruiting coordinator.
By coaching at CSU, Coulter was able to return to her hometown. A 1996 graduate of Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins, Coulter spent her childhood watching CSU volleyball. She attended matches at Moby Arena, and beginning at the age of 14, even kept a three-ring binder full of newspaper clippings.
In just two seasons as associate head coach, she has made a lasting impact on the CSU volleyball program. The Rams have won back-to-back Mountain West championships with Coulter's assistance, and in 2013, set a program record with a .933 winning percentage. CSU ranked as high as No. 9 nationally, and began the season 27-0.
The Rams' back-row defense held a .953 reception percentage, sixth-best in program history, and set a school record with a .926 serve percentage. On offense, CSU hit .299, second-best in program history.
Over the past two seasons, CSU has earned eight All-Mountain West selections and six AVCA All-Region nods. Coulter has tutored some of the program's top defensive specialists, including Izzy Gaulia - who ranks second for career digs - Cassidy Denny - whose .952 serve percentage in 2013 ranked second all-time for a true freshman - and Jaime Colaizzi - who as a sophomore in 2013 had 26 double-figure dig matches (tied for fourth), including 23 in a three-set win over Air Force (fifth-most for a three-set match).
Away from the court, she plays a large role in CSU's development process as the program's recruiting coordinator. She is also instrumental to the Rams' academic success, which has been shown with the team's 18 Mountain West Academic All-Conference selections over the past two seasons, in addition to an Academic All-American.
Prior to her time at CSU, Coulter spent one season (2011) as an assistant coach at Georgia, training the Bulldogs' outside hitters and liberos, as well as coordinating camps, planning freshman transition and working with academics.
Before her stint in Athens, Ga., Coulter was an assistant coach at Denver for four seasons (2007-10). There, she worked with the team's outside hitters and defensive specialists, in addition to many off-the-court aspects of the program. The Pioneers went 77-54 during her tenure, including a program-best 25-7 mark in 2008.
Her coaching career began as a volunteer assistant at Nevada in 2002, where she organized summer camps and maintained a recruiting database. After one season in Reno, however, she put coaching on hold to continue her playing career.
She played professionally in Europe from 2002-07, competing for teams in Slovenia, Austria, Spain, Germany and Holland. She was also employed by Bring It Promotions, where she directed and organized international tours throughout Slovenia and eastern Europe.
In college, Coulter was a four-year starter and three-year captain at California. The outside hitter was named to the All-Pac-10 freshman team in 1996 and was a two-time member of the Pac-10 honorable mention squad. Today, she still ranks first all-time in Cal's record book for career service aces (162) and aces in a match (nine). She finished her career ranked sixth for digs (1,121) and seventh for kills (966), and in 1998, her 56 aces ranked fourth nationally.
As a senior in 1999, she was coached by long-time CSU Head Coach Rich Feller. Coulter was a two-sport athlete, also competing with the women's basketball team for one season.
Away from the college level, Coulter has a wealth of experience with the international game.
In 2014, she was an assistant coach for the U.S. Girls' Youth National Team, earning a silver medal at the NORCECA Women's U-18 Continental Championship in Costa Rica and a berth in the 2015 FIVB Women's U-18 World Championship.
Coulter served as head coach for the 2013 USA Future Select National Training Program, working with the top athletes under 13 years of age. In 2010 and 2011, she was an assistant coach for the USA Volleyball Women's A2 Junior National Team in England and for the Global Challenge in Croatia, winning a gold medal. She was the head coach for 2009 USA Volleyball's High Performance A3 camp, and the year prior, in 2008, was an assistant on the bronze medal-winning USA Women's A2 Volleyball Open Adult Championship team.
Additionally, Coulter founded the Green Valley Ranch U-12 Starlings club program. In June 2009, the Starlings captured the bronze medal at the Starlings National Championship in San Diego, Calif. As a student-athlete at Cal, she coached the Golden Bear Volleyball Club.
Coulter earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in integrative biology in 2001 from California, and was a physical therapy aide at the Nevada Physical Therapy-Orthopedic and Sports Rehabilitation Clinic upon graduation. Her parents still live in Fort Collins.

Pondering the former Chancery, Einstein's spaces on Downer
It's been nearly two years since The Chancery closed its doors at 2575 N. Downer Ave.
Next door, the former Downer Avenue Einstein Bros. Bagels has been closed since July 2006.
Together, these vacant spaces suck some of the life out of one of Milwaukee's truly historic and walkable avenues.
I haven't heard much lately about either address, so I thought I would open it up to you for ideas, insight and input.
What are your thoughts for the best use of the former Chancery and Einstein's spaces on Downer Avenue? Chime in via the Talkback feature below.
With new streetscaping and a new year, hope springs eternal and new ideas are needed.
cgodfrey | Feb. 3, 2010 at 4:31 a.m. (report)
I know Pizza Man is probably looking to reopen at the same location, but they might be an interesting fit for the old Chancery space.
Also, the whole Alderman Kovac's father/Parking Structure lawsuit is a farce. The city bends over backwards to accomodate Kovac's wishes due to his son's political pull, and then he sues them for doing so. If anyone's looking to run against Kovac and needs some dirt, the shenanigans with the parking structure are a good place to start.

We need a pet store in this area. The grocery stores and drug stores carry dog and cat food but what about those of us with other pets? It's a long bus ride or drive to get to the nearest pet store. A locally owned pet store that sells pet supplies for all pets would be ideal in this location. As a bonus, the store could also offer pet training classes and occasionally serve as satellite adoption center for local animal shelters and rescues.

A kitchen boutique would do quite well on Downer. Where you can purchase those (extremely) hard to find kitchen utensils & necessities and some specialty spices, oils & deli items. It would compliment Breadsmith's, Sendik's & Downer Wine & Spirits.

And most of Boris' success if due to having the former alderman in his pocket. One has to wonder if the former alderman didn't run for re-election so he could distance himself from his connection to Boris (and possible criminal charges). I only hope that the new alderman doesn't fall under the spell of Boris and his Russian mafia money laundering.

Live from the London Book Fair: FIRST YOU WRITE
We are truly living in the most thrilling publishing era since Gutenberg.
I finished the final draft of this manuscript on my MacBook Air during a flight from Texas to Belgium and input my critique partners' edits on the bullet train from Brussels to St. Pancras Station.
Drinking coffee in the kitchen of Irish author Orna Ross (whom I've seen many times on Facebook and Skype but met for the first time three days ago at the Willesden Green tube station), I converted the manuscript to ebook format and assigned it an ISBN from the spares I keep on hand.
Sitting in the Espresso corner at Earl's Court with the London Book Fair in full swing all around me, I published it and set it up for a mid-week freebie via Kindle Select.

Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals have 'pure speed' in Ted Ginn, Jr. and John Brown
TEMPE, Ariz. -- Speed.
It's something the Arizona Cardinals have wanted. It's something the Arizona Cardinals believe they now have, especially after the addition of receivers John Brown and Ted Ginn, Jr.
Last season, as a team, the Cardinals had 52 plays of 20 or more yards, 49 of which came in the air. Michael Floyd led the team with 17, and Larry Fitzgerald followed him with 11. While both effective, neither wideout is considered to be a "burner."
Enter Ginn, who runs the 40-yard dash in about 4.30 seconds and Brown, a third-round pick who was clocked at 4.34 seconds in the same drill.
"Just pure speed," quarterback Carson Palmer said of the duo. "That's something that this offense must have to be successful. Pretty much every offense must have some speed. But both those guys are absolute burners.
"You look at some of the things Ted can do once he puts his foot in the ground and hits full speed and full stride. And John, it doesn't take John long; it takes him maybe two steps to be running 4.30. They give us a huge, dramatic change from what we were last year going into this year."
Ginn, who played for the Carolina Panthers last year, came to Arizona as a free agent. He has caught 197 passes for 2,604 yards and 11 touchdowns in his career. Brown was taken with the 91st pick in the draft out of Pittsburg State.
Both have been impressive up to this point, with Ginn proving to be more than a special teams player and Brown turning heads on what seems like a daily basis.
In fact, head coach Bruce Arians said that Wednesday's practice was the first time the rookie looked like, well, a rookie.
"He dropped a ball, the first one he dropped, and he fell down, wide open," the coach said. "So he got to be a rookie. I think he's reading his press clippings."
Arians was joking, of course, but there's no hiding the fact that he believes the offense finally has the tools to be as effective as he wants. In every one of his stops before this one, Arians always had a receiver who could stretch the field, like Antonio Brown in Pittsburgh and T.Y. Hilton in Indianapolis.
"Any time you can hit a home run in one play, it's easy," the coach said. "The threat of those guys being out there is every play that you can hit one and what they do to the defense to open up everyone else.
"You don't have to throw it long. When you hit a fast guy going across the field it's easy for him to turn it up and go the distance."
That's a threat the team really didn't find last season, though not for a lack of trying. Teddy Williams and Brittan Golden each got a chance, with Golden catching a 63-yard pass and Williams a 51-yarder. Unfortunately both players suffered injuries before they could really get going, forcing the team to explore other options. Williams has since been moved to defensive back while Golden is fighting to make the team.
It's a sign of just how much the team has changed in just one offseason.
"That speed element is something we feel like we've added a lot," Arians said. "Andre Ellington being the feature back we feel adds a lot of speed on the field. Whoever comes out of the tight end room has got some speed. I really like where we're at offensively."
