Dan Horan, the president and chief executive of PK Enterprises, tells us that he closed Papaya Kings 14th Street location because a bagel store and deli gave him an offer on the lease. Were sorry to go, says Horan. We really liked that spot, but were finding real estate in New York City to be very expensive. Really? No one will cut Papaya King a break in this time of flexible landlords? Horan says that while rents have gone down elsewhere, theyre holding strong for corner properties, which is where Papaya Kings need to be. In 2000, Restaurant News reported that Papaya Kings 86th Street location generated revenues in excess of $1.4 million per year clearly, the 14th Street outpost fell short of that mark, and it might have had something to do with the neighbors. Were hanging in there, Horan says. Were impacted when a big electronic store goes out of business next door. We want people out on the streets.

"So we find ourselves on the brink. It's clear humans have had a devastating impact on our planet's ecological web of life." -Leonard DiCaprio, The 11th Hour

So she's not exactly a 'green' celebrity, but she's still making a difference. Singer and songwriter India Arie is known for her captivating, thought provoking lyrics and haunting melodies. But she's more than a voice, more than a stage persona. She's using her power as a celebrity to do two very different things: empower women to love themselves as they are and, more recently, helping to turn the world's attention to the AIDS epidemic in Africa. And together they sum up what India stands for.
She's considered one of the world's most beautiful people. Her films have made you laugh (Wedding Crashers) and sob so hard you ran out of tissues (The Notebook). But I bet you didn't know that in addition to being a magazine cover girl, a leading lady and a red carpet goddess, she's also an environmentalist. Better yet, her love for nature and the environment isn't just an excuse to get press or a pet project to help her get tax breaks. She's been environmentally conscious since she was a kid, and to this day she does everything she can to lighten her footprint on the world (and even dreams of living in a tree house and growing her own food).
The pages of the weekly magazines would lead you to believe that all celebs live a life of champagne wishes and caviar dreams. But that's truly not the only scenario. Some use their stature (and money) to help a cause. And what bigger cause can there be than trying to save the earth? Woody Harrelson has done a lot with his name. He's gone on 'tour' promoting simple organic living, he's published a book (How To Go Further) and he even has his own eco-driven website that he started with his wife, Laura.
His website contains a poem by Woody called Thoughts From Within. Combined with compelling images, he reads his poem on his website. I've known about this video for a few years now, and it's something that just gets better each time I watch it. His distinctive voice speaks words that are so powerful, and so true, that you can't help but sit up and take notice. He says aloud what some of us are thinking, but what most of the world chooses to ignore.
I don't want to ruin the experience by quoting the whole poem here. But just to give you a taste to encourage you to see the entire thing for yourself, here's one of my favorite stanzas:
A billion people sitting watching their TV in the room that they call living but as for me I see living as loving and since there is no loving room I sit on the grass under a tree dreaming of the way things used to be Pre-Industrial Revolution which of course is before the rivers and oceans, and skies were polluted.
-from Thoughts From Within, Woody Harrelson
Woody makes me smile, because for every person that he talks to, every life that he changes, that's one more person working towards environmental activism. In his book he says that the only right answer to changing the world is to change who you are and what you do. Create your own self-evolution simply by emailing the link to Woody's poem to your friends. Encourage them to send it on as well. Create a viral revolution.

Let's Review: Was it a play or a movie? WoW Festival-goers know about Platonov
By Will Bowen
La Jolla Playhouse's four-day WoW (Without Walls) Festival in October appears to have been a rousing triumph. Playhouse Managing Director Mike Rosenberg called it "an unqualified success," adding 1,400 to 1,600 people visited the festival each of the four days, which was way more than expected. Playhouse Director of Education Steve McCormick said the festival was "awesome!"
One of the best of the 20-some performances was an experimental work called "Platonov" or "The Disinherited" (an adaptation of Russian playwright Anton Chekhov's first play) written by MIT Theater & Music Department Chair Jay Scheib, who also directed it.
The play was preformed in a small, makeshift house built on the grass in front of Galbraith Hall on the UC San Diego campus near the "Stonehenge" Stuart Collection art piece. The audience was positioned on outdoor folding chairs in front of the stage
This exciting, daring, and at times threatening, play has to be classed as a grand example of innovation in the tradition of directors like Anne Bogart or Joseph Chaikin.
What was so unique was that it was both live theater and a movie at the same time. Scheib was right there on stage in the middle of the action with his actors filming them up-close with a hand-held video camera. The result was projected in real time on a 35-foot screen above the stage. The audience had an unparalled opportunity to compare and contrast the story as a play and as a movie.
Of course, the viewer's eyes went back and forth between the real action on stage and the film above that was subtitled with the dialogue spoken below. It was like simultaneously being at Old Globe's Shakespeare in the Park while attending a drive-in movie under the stars. The production made you think about why movies are so popular, while many theatrical companies struggle financially. Scheib reminded patrons that the New York City Opera cancelled its 2013-2014 season.
Audiences seem to like the larger-than- life images projected on the big screen. Maybe it's because the images are so large (or the camera brings you in so close and focuses your attention so well) or maybe it's the richness in the coloration or texture of the images that the camera provides.
Scheib said our emotional involvement in the cinematic image is the kind of thing that prompted German theater great Bertolt Brecht to configure what he called "The Alienation Effect," actions that make us aware that the play is not real life and that we are in a theater.
"Brecht said we want to get lost in the illusion that cinema provides ... but that obscures our vision of the real world reflected in the play. The technique of film and a play simultaneously is like an alienation effect because it makes us aware of both mediums and prevents us from becoming emotionally lost in the story so we can better think through what is happening before us," Scheib said.
But then Scheib seemed to contradict himself, when he added, "The whole point with this play is to make theater more like the movies. For live theater to survive in the future it must become more engaging ... this play was an experiment in that direction.

Wiki Headlines
18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
It's a fat kid's dying dream as he slowly dies of dabeties in a children's hospitalThis would explain EVERYTHING about this batshit insane show.
The pilot episode is really the last episode.Remember when Chowder and Panini have been mercilessly Flanderized? Well, that's because one can consider them to be the last episode in which there is a resolution to both Chowder's classification as a scatterbrain and the Will They or Won't They? of Panini X Chowder. Therefore, the so-called Flanderization of both characters were really intended from the beginning, and the pilot is just aired as the first episode, and takes place much later in the series.
The Brain Grub episode is the first episode.This episode acts as though the characters aren't aware of the fact that they aren't in a show. If we take this as the first episode, then all the other lampshade hangings and such make sense in every other episode.
Mung was the one that left Endive behind at her wedding.It's been stated more than a few times over the course of the show that Mung loves the ladies (and continues to do so, even after being married to Truffles for god-knows how long.) It's also been stated that he hates doing things by the book. What started out as a possible full-fledged romance between him and Endive basically turned to rot after he found that he couldn't stand her textbook-perfect nature; that, coupled with the fear of giving up his bachelor lifestyle, caused him to get cold feet and run off on his own until he met Truffles, who didn't give a crap about how he worked or who he flirted with on the side. Also, before anyone mentions the "Mung and Truffles have been married for 450 years!" bit, keep in mind that Endive's age isn't even hinted at yet, meaning that she could be as old as he is...
The entire series is All Just a Dream, a dream induced by Chowder getting food poisoning.Because that would explain the Negative Continuity, the bizarre colors, people, and cars, the surrealness of the episode plots, and Chowder's obsession with eating.
gazpacho is secretly a pirate.that's why he hates ninjas
Alternatively, the whole series is the hallucination of a mental patient.You said it. The entire city is extremely surreal, and nothing seems to logically make sense.
Before entering puberty, the species which Chowder and Panini belong to are in a state of...what's a nice way to put this....
Alternatively, the species Chowder and Panini belong to are of the tanuki.
Chowder is the true idealized form of Instrumentality
Marzipan City really is made out of marzipan.Because if you can mold it into tiny little intricate shapes, then heck, why not an entire city where almost everything revolves around food?
Chowder's Cute Little Fang is the same as his "Wisdom Tooth"
Chowder takes place in the same universe as Katamari Damacy
Schnitzel is actually a Pok�mon.
Chowder is Light Yagami
Marzipan City is built upon Candied IslandWhen Knuckles and Flapjack finally find it, Flapjack and Chowder will start the eating contest to end all eating contests!
Chowder's world is the fairytale world in the far futureOur time to be exact. It's a different world or universe or whatever but it does make sense. Mung is probably an elf and Endive an ogre. It also explains why there are cat/bear/rabbit hybrids. If there are half humans in fairy tales, then why not hybrids of other things?
Male rock monsters are rumored to be very well equippedThis is why so many elderly Marzipan City ladies are hitting on Schnitzel (no, it's not just Endive - See "The Big Hat Biddies""). The reason why Schnitzel took a job where he always gets stuck with all the menial labor, is that his only other option was to become a gigolo, and that was beneath his dignity.
Chowder has Asperger's Syndrome or some form of autismIt would explain his tendency to blurt out random things without thinking about what he's saying, and his social awkwardness. In an early episode it is also implied that he's dyslexic, which is a common symptom of autism.
The theme song is an in-universe commercial for Mung's restaurantThis might be a pretty obvious WMG, but the song's all about cooking and food, the lyrics are sung by Mung and the gang as an invitation for people to "stay awhile 'cause something's always cooking", and it ends with the characters chattering to each other about how well they thought the song went. It gives the impression that the theme song's really an in-universe commercial they're putting together for the catering company.
Chowder is a girlNo one else knows, and Chowder doesn't realize they don't know. That's why (s)he's horrified at Panini's advances and why (s)he frequently enjoys wearing girl's clothing. This is also why (s)he never hooked up with Marmalade, despite being very compatible with her...not to mention the whole purple clothes thing.
Marmalade is the child of Kermit and PiggyGazpacho did call her a "Pig Frog Girl"
Marzipan City is hell, or at least in hell.Everyone in the city committed one of the Seven Deadly Sins, and for their punishment have been warped into bizarre, animal-like forms, had their sins exaggerated to the point of absurdity, and put into an illogical city that sometimes seems to be actively trying to hurt them.
The original Schnitzel died in the episode "Chowder's Catering Company" and was replaced by Schnitzy, his twin.At the end of Chowder's Catering Company, Schnitzel jumps in a barrel and rolls into the Wonderhole in which, according to Chowder, nobody can ever get out of. He was replaced by Schnitzy, his exact twin, who performed at the comedy club Gazpacho also peformed at in "Gazpacho Stands Up". However, Mung and Chowder fail to beleive that original Schnitzel is still trapped in the pit.
Chowder has an eating disorderWhy else would Chowder eat EVERYTHING and ANYTHING he comes into contact with (occasionally residents of Marzipan City)?
The world of Chowder will be completely overrun by his and Panini's children.They will not be able to keep that whole "no more babies" agreement in the the finale and will keep on making babies until their descendants have out-competed everyone else.
Chowder is a distant relative of Eek! The CatJust compare the two. Although probably not immediate family (Chowder being a hybrid creature), the two do bare more than a passing resemblence to each other.
Gazpacho's mother was dead.Gazpacho's tendencies on always saying "mother always says" is a mean to cope of her loss. He even went as far as to dress up as her so that no one would know.
Chowder takes place in the same world as TorikoBoth Marzipan City and the whole world of Toriko are food obsessed, and the quality of food is directly dependent on how hard it is to obtain the ingredients and prepare them into an edible form.
Ceviche is biologically femaleA kid FtM.
Chowder's parents are around.In the episode "The Deadly Maze", during Gumbo's flashback of when he quit being Mung's apprentice, Mung says "Well, we lost another one. Shintzel, get the apprentice catalog!" So in Chowder's world, or at least Marzipan City, its common for kids to be send off to the apprentice delivery. Chowder's parents were poor and want their son to have a better life. They have him put among the other chef apprentices since he likes food, a lot. Off-screen, Chowder writes to his parents about his many adventures.
Chowder is MarxNo, seriously. Something about Chowder terrified me as a kid. I couldn't figure it out though until now. Look at how much he looks like Marx! The alternative is that Panini is Marx.
Ceviche moved away or died in the future of "Chowder grows up".Maybe the reason why he didn't show up was maybe he became extremely popular so he moved to a different country or got killed in some accident whatever you think makes sense.
The R actually raped ChowderR IS FOR RAPE! and R put it on a child porn site.

So you want to be a rock 'n roll star! That, or start up a new hobby to fill the time. Wherever your future endeavors may take you—the stage, the studio, the comfy living room couch—the first step in embarking on your wonderful journey is purchasing a guitar.

Many first-time guitarists mistakenly choose the cheapest model they can find, thinking it's easier to play and suits them best.

If you like what you see, you can learn about or discover even more about Yamaha guitars similar to the C40 in the Yamaha guitars section of our website.
Popular amongst beginners and experienced guitarist as well, the Epiphone Les Paul 100 has everything you need. This electric guitar comes supercharged with budget-friendly humbucker pickups that deliver loads of serious tones. The slimmer body and bolt-on mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard provide a super-comfortable feel. Affordable enough for beginners, but has the tone, amazing looks, and excellent playability you'll never want to let go of. No matter what style of music you want to play, you'll never go wrong with the Epiphone Les Paul 100. See more guitars including photos, prices and videos on our Epiphone electric guitars page.
This value-filled Squier Stop Dreaming Start Playing Affinity Strat set features everything a beginning guitarist needs to begin the process of learning how to make music. The Squier Affinity Strat is an electric guitar with three single-coil pickups and a 15-Watt amp with an 8-inch Special Design Speaker. The amp is a virtual band in a box, containing 15 drum and bass loops, a built-in metronome, and the capability to recreate the sound of 16 different amp types. Included also are stereo headphones, instructional DVD, guitar strap, guitar cable, and a pick sampler. A sweet gig bag is also included to help protect and transport your new Strat from the garage to the living room or from one concert hall to another.
As a beginner, you'll want to have all the right gear and accessories to better assist you on your new musical journey. More information on affordable electric guitar packages and extra goodies can be found in the guitars section of our website.

Laptop with bootleg Windows - Wanting to restore to legit key
2 years ago, I bought an Acer laptop that came with Window 7 Home Premium 64-bit. But my boyfriend at the time decided that Home Premium wasn't good enough, so he pirated a copy of Ultimate 64-bit and installed it on my laptop despite me asking him not to. He also "lost" the restore disk.
Fairly recently, the laptop failed to pass genuine advantage, and I'd like to try to go back to using the legit key that I can still read on the bottom of the laptop.
If I buy an OEM version of Windows 7 Home Premium, could I use the disk to install the OS on my laptop and use the product key that is printed on the bottom of the laptop? I plan on building a new desktop, and would like to use the new product key that comes with the disk for that.

Windows 7 Ult. x64 Windows 8.1 x64
Hi MsFunk,
Since this site has avery strict policy in regard to software piracy, I've decided to check with one of the forum administrators first if we are allowed to help you with this.
Zero10 has agreed that we can help you, so lets get cracking:
Since many bootleg/pirated software is known to carry malware, the best course of action is to perform a clean install (with a full disk format). This guarantees that any malware that may have been present will be completed removed. So, you need to to ensure that all your data (Photo's, music etc. etc.) are backed-up to an external device.
Once you have done that, downlaod a legitimate Windows 7 Home Premium ISO from this link:
It does NOT have to be an OEM version. be sure to select the correct bit : x86 (32 bit) or x64 (64 bit).
Next download and install the Microsoft USB Installer tool from this site:
Use this installer to create a bootable USB thumb drive (must be a minimum of 4GB) using the Windows 7 ISO you downloaded:
You are going to install Windows 7 to your laptop from this USB (ensure it can boot from the USB device by checking in the BIOS), and activate it with your OEM key at the bottom of the laptop.
Post back if you need more help with this.

Win 7 x64 Home Premium (and x86 VirtualBox VM)
You need to use the Recovery Media appropriate for your laptop - if the recovery partition still exists use that.
If the Recovery Partition no longer exists, you will need to order a set of recovery disks from teh manufacturer, and thene reinstall using that (this will be cheaper than purchasing a new license!)
Either way, you will need to back up all data to external media as it will wipe your hard drive in the process.

If you get the OEM Reinstall Disk for your Laptop from ACER, you can clean install. It will require no activation - it will auto activate off-line.. ( I got the OEM Reinstall Disk for my DELL laptop and did a clean install. Dell sends it free but ACER may charge a small fee.) Get in touch with ACER Technical Support. Just tell them your HDD got ruined by a virus and you need to reinstall. Good luck.
EDIT: 1. You can also download the official Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit from the digitalriver server http://msft.digitalrivercontent.net/win/X17-58997.iso and do a clean install. You wiill be required to activate by phone using the COA key.
2. Alternatively if one of your friends has the same ACER laptop with the same Windows version, you can backup the OEM activation in that laptop using Advanced Tokens Manager http://www.sevenforums.com/windows-u...ml#post1769683 and restore the OEM activation on your ACER laptop, when you clean install the official version downloaded above. The only difference is you will not be using the COA key and you will not be calling Microsoft.
There is absolutely no piracy involved here since you are only restoring the original OEM activation for which you have paid for - but lost doing some mischief - more conveniently and comfortably.
|My System Specs
|10 Feb 2012
Thanks for the responses, guys. I probably won't be downloading it, since I'm going to be buying the OEM disk anyway for building a new desktop. Also, my BIOS is password protected and not set to boot from USB (THANKS ACER!! This is why I build my own computers!).
Having the other options is a bit of a relief.
And about the pirated copy... I'll reiterate that I didn't want the pirated copy on the laptop in the first place. It's caused nothing but headaches trying to avoid downloading the wrong updates and removing the genuine advantage checks. I wouldn't recommend pirating Windows 7 to ANYONE. I use my computer for freelance work, and I've lost a lot more than $100 in work because of the pirated OS activation.
|My System Specs
|10 Feb 2012
OK, for your ACER Laptop, get the OEM Reinstall Disk from ACER and get done with it. (This OEM disk will not install on any other system/motherboard)
If you are thinking of building your own computer, I would recommend that you buy the retail version of Windows 7.
The OEM edition, though cheaper, will again tie it up to your motherboard. In case it needs to be replaced anytime in future, you will have to get the same motherboard to preserve the activation. If it is not available then and you are forced to use a different motherboard, you may have to do a bit of explaining to Microsoft to get it activated.
The retail version does not restrain being shifted to a new system when such a need arises.

Jeezy - Foul Play
Artist: Jeezy
Producer: Drumma Boy
Album: #ItsThaWorld 2
Avg Rating: 2.6 ( 7 votes )
This next song is dedicated to the Ndamukong Suh's and Rasheed Wallace's of the world. Those who feel the need to get aggressive and downright dirty (similar to our examples) are advised to keep Young Jeezy's Foul Play on repeat. Handling production duties on this brash, defiant cut, Drumma Boy cooks up a hi-octane, relentless trap beat. The only thing more commanding than the instrumental is Jeezy's boisterous, raspy flow. The rapper-turned-A&R-turned-rapper cranks it up a notch with some unapologetic, hostile bars that hammer home the record's sock-you-in-the-mouth vibe. Foul Play is slated to appear on Jeezy's forthcoming It's The World Vol. 2 tape, due out in late November.

Alright a couple weeks ago at work a co-worker said he saw a study or article somewhere that stated Diet Mountain Dew was far worse for you then any other diet soda out there. He didn't really state why or who did the study though.
I was searching around for this study/article but couldn't find anything. So I'm asking you guys if any of you have seen this?

LINCOLN ŌĆō ŌĆ£BURN,ŌĆØ an independent documentary film capturing a year in the lives of Detroit firefighters, is coming to Rhode Island and the filmŌĆÖs director wants to see you at the screenings.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆō Imagine a creature that reaches reproductive maturity at six months old, gives birth to six or seven offspring at a time and loves having unprotected sex as often as possible.
No, itŌĆÖs not some mythic species invented by Hollywood, but the common cat gone wild. By some estimates, one feral four-legger and her offspring can spawn a colony of 5,000 cats in just three years.
No wonder Pam Howard is such a busy lady.
CUMBERLAND ŌĆō ItŌĆÖs been 68 years since Wilfrid E. Hebert, 91, returned home from World War II and he has spent much of that time coming to terms with his days as a B-17 crew member flying missions over Europe.
Hebert, an ex-POW and a resident of Flat Street, can tell you what helped him most through his troubled times and also about the things he still grapples with when holidays such as Memorial Day arrive.
BLACKSTONE ŌĆō At least two members of the Board of Selectmen say they are prepared to buck the Finance CommitteeŌĆÖs recommendation and make a case on Town Meeting floor for why voters should approve $75,000 to fund a feasibility study for a new senior center.
Expressing the most discontent is Selectman Paul S. Haughey, who chastised the FinCom earlier this week, saying the boardŌĆÖs decision to not recommend passage of the senior center article is an injustice to the townŌĆÖs senior citizens.
The end of school is near, and thereŌĆÖs no time like the present for teenagers to try to find that summer job.
Lining up work with a private business is one way for teens to fill their free hours but that may not be an easy task given the areaŌĆÖs still-recovering economy.
There are also community-based jobs ŌĆö funded through local governments, state agencies, or federal programs ŌĆö that may still be available to interested job seekers.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆō Amid the smell of fresh rubber tires, sparks fly off the rusty interior of a chrome bicycle rim as Craig Brassard buffs off some metal burrs with a portable hand grinder that sounds like a kitchen blender.
ŌĆ£No guarantees,ŌĆØ he tells the owner of the vintage Schwinn 10-speed from which the rim came ŌĆō heŌĆÖd done the best he could to address the cause of his flat tire.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆō Four new recruits were sworn in as probationary patrol officers by the Woonsocket Police Department on Friday.
Officers Mark Castiglione, Taylor-Rae Monfils, Manuel Salema and Craig Thompson will immediately be assigned to the field training program, which lasts about 14 weeks, according to Police Chief Thomas Carey.
More than a dozen banks from Providence to Pawtucket have been robbed over the past five months, leaving some to wonder if bank robberies have reached epidemic proportions in the Blackstone Valley.
While it may seem like the valley is a hotspot for bank theft of late, Special Agent Greg Comcowich, a spokesman for the FBIŌĆÖs Boston division, says the recent spate of robberies, which include MondayŌĆÖs heists in North Providence and Cranston, and ThursdayŌĆÖs robbery in Pawtucket, are not an indication of an overall rise in the number of bank robberies in the state.
PROVIDENCE ŌĆō Proponents of a bill to alter the School Siting Law passed last year say it will strengthen the safety requirements for building schools on former industrial or manufacturing sites.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆō Melissa Murray just opened a new business in the city and itŌĆÖs located in a place she sees as a perfect home for creative and innovative art and craft entrepreneurs like herself.
Murray, a city native, operates The Opulent Squid in the Le Moulin Artist Mall at 68 South Main St., selling an eclectic selection of her own jewelry designs and consignment items in mixed mediums.

Composer Creates Stunning Piece of Music Using Only a Bicycle
Composer Johnnyrandom is on a mission to change the way you hear the world, using only a bicycle and its parts. The artist created an entire musical composition without using any traditional instruments. Instead, he tuned his spokes and plucked them with guitar picks, struck his tires and sprocket with mallets, and even implemented an ebow, which uses an electromagnetic field to vibrate metal objects, such as guitar strings -- or in this case, brake lines.

OURAY, Colo. (AP) -- Two workers were killed and 20 others were injured in a mining accident near the southwestern Colorado town of Ouray.
Ouray County spokeswoman Marti Whitmore says the sheriff's office was called to the Revenue Virginius mine at about 7:20 a.m. Sunday. The miners were trapped underground, and they were confirmed dead Sunday afternoon.

DETROIT (AP) - Detroit police say they have arrested two more men in connection with the severe mob beating of a suburban motorist who had accidentally hit a 10-year-old boy who stepped in front of his truck.
Sgt. Michael Woody said a 30-year-old man was arrested Sunday night and a 24-year-old on Monday afternoon. That brings to four the number arrested in the assault of 54-year-old Steve Utash after the accident Wednesday.
A 17-year-old has been charged with assault and faces arraignment Tuesday. The fourth is a 16-year-old who hasn't been charged but is being held in a juvenile detention facility.
Woody says Utash, of Macomb County's Clinton Township, is in a medically induced coma.
The boy was treated for a leg injury.
The case has outraged the public, clergy and elected officials.

"Enhancing the quality of life of all older Pennsylvanians by empowering diverse communities, the family and the individual."
November is National Alzheimer's Disease Awareness and Caregiver Support Month
In 1983, November was designated as National Alzheimer's Disease Awareness Month. At the time, fewer than 2 million Americans had Alzheimer's disease; today, the number of people with the disease has soared to nearly 5.4 million nationally. In Pennsylvania, nearly 400,000 individuals are living with Alzheimer's disease or related disorders.
This is the time, reflect on those who are providing care to persons living with Alzheimer's disease or related disorders and to say thank you to them for their dedication to their loved ones. The Department of Aging is committed to enhancing awareness about the disease and providing information and support. One such demonstration of this is through the creation of the Pennsylvania State Plan for Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders. For more information on the State Plan, click here.
Caregivers provide millions of hours of care for loved ones. Familiy caregivers make essential social and financial contributions toward maintaining the well-being of those whom they provide care. The Alzheimer's Association estimates that in 2013, 669,000 family and friends in Pennsylvania provided 762 million hours of unpaid care to those with Alzheimer's and other dementias - care valued at $9.5 million.
The department's Pennsylvania Caregiver Support Program provides benefits to primary caregivers to relieve caregiver burden. Individuals should contact their Area Agency on Aging to find out more about the program. Services may include reimbursement for supplies/services paid for by the caregiver, counseling, information and referral to other area services, caregiver education/training and respite. For more information on the Pennsylvania Caregiver Support Program,

Happy Birthday PACE!
The Pennsylvania Department of Aging joins the Pharmaceutical Assistance Contract for the Elderly Program (PACE) in celebrating its 30th Anniversary. Since the program began in 1984, PACE has provided Pennsylvanians in need with assistance for prescriptions that, in some cases, are lifesaving.
For more information on PACE, click here.
Medicare Open Enrollment
Medicare Open Enrollment begins October 15 and goes to December 7. Medicare beneficiaries are encouraged to seek help with finding out changes in Medicare benefits and evaluate what health care insurance plan meets their needs.
The Department of Aging's APPRISE program offers free, one-on-one health insurance counseling to assist Pennsylvanians with Medicare. APPRISE counselors are trained volunteers who can answer questions about Medicare and work with Area Agencies on Aging at the local level. They provide objective, easy-to-understand information about Medicare, Medicare Supplemental Insurance, Medicaid, and long-term care insurance in order for older adults to compare plans and determine which one best meets their needs.
Area Agencies on Aging offer enrollment events where counselors are able to provide older adults with information. You do not need to attend an enrollment event to receive assistance.
To receive information related to your Medicare plan or to find an enrollment event, call 1-800-783-7067 or click here. To learn more about the APPRISE program click here
2014-15 Senior Community Center Grants Awarded
The Corbett Administration has provided $2 million to 67 centers across Pennsylvania. The grant program is in its second year and is part of the largest-ever single investment in home- and community-based services through the Pennsylvania Department of Aging.
Grants will provide opportunities for centers to modernize, encourage technology improvements, expand innovative programming, and better meet the needs of their current and future participants.
For more information, click here.
The Permanent Supportive Housing Award
The Pennsylvania Departments of Aging and Public Welfare, and the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency are seeking nominations to recognize initiatives and honor individuals and organizations for their dedication and leadership to increasing permanent supportive housing opportunities for veterans in Pennsylvania. The award will be presented to an individual or organization, whose program offers new and creative approaches to supportive, accessible and affordable housing, maximizing the availability of services and positive opportunities for residents.
Permanent Supportive Housing is a cost-effective alternative to institutional living that allows residents a safe, accessible, community-based home.

In September 2011, with our binoculars and telescopes we all witnessed SN 2011fe (initially named PTF11kly) blowing up to become a Type 1A Supernova. One thing about Type 1A Supernova is that astronomers around the world discover around 280-400 of them each year.
Yes, a star blows up almost every alternative day. So what was so exciting about SN 2011fe?
The fact that it was visible to the hobbyists. And this is the first time after more than 30 years that a supernova was visible to the naked eye. One of a kind opportunity. And we'll never know if we shall have such an opportunity again in our lifetime.
The supernova was detected by an automated survey of the Messier 101 on 24th August at Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) within hours of its occurrence. The Messier 101, also known as the Pinwheel Galaxy, is a spiral galaxy like our Milky Way about 21 million light years from Earth. Now 21 million light years may seem like a long distance, but for astronomers it is actually pretty close. Remember, we are talking about another galaxy, not just a star in our own Milky Way. The image above may help to locate the supernova. It would be best visible during twilight towards the west in the Northern Hemisphere. Unfortunately, if you were in Australia or any other part of the Southern Hemisphere, you didn't have the luck.
At the time of its not-so-glamorous discovery, SN 2011fe was a million times too dim to be visible to the naked eye. But it has brightened and is still getting brighter. And right now it is the brightest star in M101 galaxy.
Such supernovas reach the brightness of more than a billion suns, because the process creates radioactive elements that decay and emit light.
SN 2011fe can help us understand the mystery of death of stars and what will happen to our own sun at the end of its life, about 5 billion years from now. This kind of Supernova occurred before in 1937 and 1572, when we didn't have sophisticated telescopes and mechanisms to study them properly. Today, we have all the necessary equipment that can see the ultraviolet, and visible light. Remarkable!

The California Public Utilities Commission has rejected a request by Pacific Gas and Electric Co., for a waiver from scheduled rate reductions mandated under a three-year base-rate plan approved...
Blackouts? never Again! (But...)
around for a long time, since before World War II."
Proven Technology
Loehr says Hydro-Quebec has two major DC interconnections with the United States-one with New York and one with New England. Loehr says Hydro-Quebec uses DC for technical reasons. "It could not interconnect with the Eastern Interconnection or with other Canadian provinces, but they were able to overcome that problem by using DC ties," he explains. "ERCOT also was a separate interconnection and found that to tie into the Eastern Interconnection to buy and sell power was much more feasible by using DC," he notes.
Loehr claims that use of DC would have avoided the August blackout. "The advantage of DC is that it is not subject to Kirkoff's laws," Loehr points out. "With an AC system, if something happens at one end of an AC system, then that is broadcast to the other side," he explains. "So if the lines trip in Ohio, we feel it in New York, but if you have DC, that is not the case."
"Let's say you have a situation on Aug. 15 where New England, New York, and Ontario are operating as a separate interconnection, with DC ties to the rest of the world," offers Loehr. The problems in Ohio would not have caused any problems in those three areas. "The only effect you could have on a neighboring system is the neighboring system would have maybe the loss of any power that had been flowing on the tie," but Loehr adds "you would plan for that anyway, even if it were an AC system."
Cost Advantages
Loehr also believes the proposed DC system would cost less to upgrade the North American grid than numbers being thrown around post-blackout. "I did estimates of the cost for DC, and they all seemed to average out to about $100,000 per mega-watt at each end of the line to converter stations," he says. He did the math and came up with estimates of between $7 billion and $8 billion. Those costs would match the capabilities of the present grid, which might need to be enhanced in some places and lessened in places. -L.A.B.
Toward Bigger Blackouts?
The 2003 blackout was larger than the 1965 blackout geographically, and George Loehr believes any future blackouts will be even bigger.
He makes that conclusion based on the existence of many more high-voltage transmission lines today. The resulting effect is that impedances between one point in the system and another point decline. Loehr explains that if you take Point A and Point B with one transmission line through it, and now have impedance X, and then build another identical line, impedance is now X divided by two. Then build two more, it is X divided by four. That leaves one-quarter the amount of impedance between those two points than existed with just one line. Basically, the grid is infinitely more complicated, and when more transmission is built, impedance is lowered across the system. If something happens somewhere in the interconnection, it is going to be felt more strongly by places far
