ALBANY, N.Y. -- A new Siena Research Institute poll shows Governor Andrew Cuomo is leading Republican Gubernatorial candidate Rob Astorino in a head-to-head race.
However, results from the poll suggest Cuomo's lead would slip if a third party candidate who voters view as more liberal or progressive than the governor entered the race.
In a one-on-one race with Astorino, Cuomo would lead 58 percent to 28 percent.
The poll shows his lead would drop 15 points if a Working Families Party candidate entered the race. Results also show Cuomo would have 39 percent of the vote, while Astorino and an unnamed Working Families Candidate would each have 24 percent of the vote.
Siena pollster Steve Greenberg said it is clear there is some dissatisfaction with Cuomo within the Democratic Party.
"It's not like they don't like Cuomo, they do. But they feel he has been too moderate, not liberal enough, siding with business over labor, siding with Republicans over Democrats," Greenberg said in an interview with Capital Tonight.
Cuomo's favorability also fell slightly compared to last month. Of the people polled, 57 percent said they have a favorable view of the governor, while 38 percent said they have an unfavorable view.
Eighteen percent of those polled said they have a favorable view of Astorino, while 16 percent have an unfavorable view. There was also 66 percent of voters who said they have no opinion.

Bennington school budget revote will be May 21May 02,2013By Patrick McArdle
Staff Writer
BENNINGTON — After cutting its rejected budget by more than $575,000, the Bennington School Board approved on Wednesday a proposed budget of $12,940,745 to be put before voters on May 21.
Members of the Bennington School Board approved the budget proposal unanimously.
There will be an informational meeting about the budget on May 20 with the vote on the budget, to take place by Australian ballot, the next day. Voting will be at the Bennington fire facility, the same location as the vote in March.
During the Town Meeting Day vote, the Bennington School District budget, which was proposed at $13,518,802, was
rejected by a vote of 1,095-915. While several school budgets around Vermont were defeated this year, Bennington was the only budget defeated in Bennington County.
The Mount Anthony Union School District, which runs the middle and high schools in Bennington, was also defeated in Bennington but received enough support in the other towns it covers, North Bennington, Pownal, Shaftsbury and Woodford, to be passed.
The March budget proposal was an increase of $2,158,689, or 19 percent, over the $11,360,113 budget passed in
The budget proposal approved last night will be an increase of $1,580,632, or almost 14 percent, over the current budget.
The school board has cut $578,057 from the budget proposal defeated in March to reach the new proposed budget.MORE IN This Just InRichard Rivers has settled his lawsuit against the Vermont State Fair.

Texas has been on the forefront of the ongoing immigration debate.
"I mean, I think everyone is in agreement that the system is not working for the interest of anyone right now," said Bill Hammond, president of the Texas Association of Business.
Protests and rallies calling for Congress to act have become commonplace on the streets of Austin in recent months.
"They want a chance to make a living," Hammond said.
And, just as much as they want to work, Hammond said, businesses have a need to put them to work.
"There should be an ebb and flow with the growth and decline in the economy," he said. "Therefore, we don't think a bureaucrat sitting in Washington D.C. should be making the decisions about the number of legal immigrants that come to America. That should be driven by the economy."
Hammond said the state's agriculture, construction and hospitality industries rely heavily on immigrant labor.
"When the economy is doing reasonably well, there are not enough people who were born here that will take those jobs," Hammond said. "That's why those three industries have learned to rely on immigrant labor and do so today."
But, supporters of immigration reform as it pertains to business -- say the potential benefits go beyond those sectors.
Local companies also complain about not being able to find the high-skilled talent that they need, particularly in the STEM field -- science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Rebecca De La Garza, vice president of federal and state advocacy for the Austin Chamber of Commerce, said the chamber supports a federal initiative that would make it easier for certain college graduates from other nations to attain a green card.
"A lot of the time we're educating folks here at our universities, like UT Austin just down the road, but we're not retaining these folks in the United States," De La Garza said. "They're going to foreign countries and they're working for competitors."
The Texas Association of Business hopes the political rhetoric in Washington doesn't cloud what they see as the economic reality.
"If we were somehow going to decide tomorrow we wanted to load them up on a Greyhound bus and send them back, our economy would collapse," Hammond said.
The U.S Senate has approved immigration reform legislation; however, there does not seem to be support for the overall plan in the House where there are plans to review the bill piece by piece.
While many Republicans and Democrats disagree on the logistics, they do agree the immigration system is broken and that something needs to be done.

Exclusive: Shakira Returns to Studio for Edgy, Dance Album
Less than six months after releasing her English album She Wolf, Shakira is back at work on her next project, Rap-Up.com has exclusively learned.
Producer Jim Jonsin (T.I., Beyoncé) and songwriter Rico Love (Usher, Diddy) were in the studio with the Colombian bombshell earlier this month. "I worked with Shakira a few weeks ago in Miami. We did two sessions together," Rico told Rap-Up TV. "She's working on another album."
Fans of the "Gypsy" can expect to see her shake her famous hips once again with the new music, which Rico described as having a "more pop, edgy" sound. "She wanted to really dance on this record and do what made her famous in America, a 'Whenever, Wherever'-type vibe," he revealed.
Despite her global superstar status, there were no diva antics in the lab. "She's really a sweetheart. We got along really good," said Rico. "She understands what she wants, she knows her strong points, and she demands that."
On July 11, Shakira will perform "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)," the official song of 2010 FIFA World Cup, at the closing ceremony before the FIFA World Cup Final at Johannesburg Soccer City Stadium in South Africa.

text: Share the post "Good things come in 3's." FacebookTwitterGoogle+PinterestStumbleUpon Let's be honest here, we would have been happy with only one of these cars, but the fellas from Next Mod decided to bring out three of their cars! Before going further we gotta give props to these guys. We've featured plenty of cars that came out of their shop and from what we hear they're a bunch of great guys who do great business. If you're in the Ontario, Canada area and need any car related stuff, we would definitely recommend hitting them up. We'll provide you with links and their contact information on the bottom of this post. For now though, let's take a closer look at these three beauties that our talented photographer Raymond Tran captured. We don't do this often, but when we do it we do it out of honor and respect. Make sure you click the Read More button on the bottom of this post for more! Photos By: Raymond Tran exclusively for StanceNation.com & NextMod.com First up we'll take a much closer look at Peter's R35 GTR. Peter is the owner of Next Mod and as you can expect, his GTR is truly one of a kind. Don't worry, that big wing on the back is definitely here for a reason as you'll soon find out. We're talking HKS GT570 upgrade kit and 21×13 rear wheels with 375/20/21 tire. We were in just as much awe when we first read those numbers as you may be right about now. We have about a dozen beautiful photos of this beast for you below. This stunning S2000 is definitely a head turner. It belongs to Brian from Advance Powerhouse& Dyno and has quite a lot going for it. From the incredible AMUSE GT Widebody to a Custom (GT3076R) turbo kit. We'll take a closer look at it below so make sure you click the Read More button below. Lastly, we'll take a look at this 2008 Honda Civic Si 4Door that has been transformed into an incredible machine. Just like the other 2 cars, this one is also a track junkie! Kevin spared no time swapping everything out from audio, to brakes, suspension, aero and of course plenty of "go-fast" mods under that hood. We urge you to hit that Read More button under the photo below for some seriously good stuff. Where do we even start with this Godzilla? Having owned this beast for just 3 months, it's spec list is pretty impressive. The HKS GT570 upgrade kit consists of things like an all new 75mm Racing Extension Pipes, Racing Center Pipe, a fully polished aluminum Intercooler Pipe Kit, JDM Spec Pre-programmed EVC, Pressure Release Computer and much more. Peter is also running a GTHaus Meisterschaft 90mm exhaust which will make the hair on your back stand straight up. The The VOLTEX Type 5 GT Wing sits about 5.5″ wide on the back of that already wide rear end. Front end also features a Powerhouse Amuse Front Splitter which not only looks good but actually helps quite a lot with grips in corners as well as air flow to the brakes, thanks to it's underneath design. Suspension wide, a set of KW Coilovers is all that it's rocking for now. That won't last long though we have a feeling. One of the most impressive things about this GTR are it's wheels. Peter not only wanted to push the envelope a bit, but he wanted to do it in style. That's where ADV1 comes into picture. They set Peter up with their ADV10 Deep concave wheels in 21×10.5 (+38) & 295/25/21 tires up front and 21×13 (+34) & 375/20/21 tires in the rear! That's plenty of contact patch, don't you say? He finished the wheel off with a set of Volk Racing Formula lugs which look absolutely beautiful might we add. Up next we have Brian's amazing S2000. It's far from all the Honda's we usually share with you, but as you can see we definitely appreciate function. With things like custom turbo kit (GT3076R), Motec M400, APH spec drive by wire kit, GReddy intercooler and more, this bad boy begs to be driven hard every time the ignition keys are turned. The wheel fitment may not appear to be "aggressive", but it definitely is. The AMUSE GT Widebody sits wide over those RAYS Volkracing CE28NF wheels in 18×10.5 (+15) all around. Brian wrapped them up in Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R (265/35/18) tires and finished them off with a set of Project kics lug nuts. Simply beautiful. We can't stop wondering just what your everyday people think they are looking at when Brian takes this bad boy out for a drive through Ontario. The AMUSE GT Widebody and APH spec VOLTEX rear wing definitely look like they belong in the latest Transforms sequel. When it came time for suspension, Ohlins DFV coilovers & Cusco sway bars (all around) went on, and Brian even upgraded to the APH spec AP racing big brake kit with Goodridge SS brake lines. The word incredible is truly an understatement. Check out some more photos below. Last but not least we have this beautiful FA5 which belongs to Kevin. It may not be the "craziest" out of the three, but it's spec list is by far the longest. As a matter of fact, it's spec list is so long that we'll have to break it down in several pieces for you. It's pretty obvious just how much this Civic means to Kevin. Even if you take the amount of money that was invested in this build, the hours and hours of work that was put into this thing is just mind blowing. It sits on a set of Advan Racing RGII wheels in 18×9 all around with 225/40/18 Yokohama tires. Everything from JDM head & tail lights, Mugen spoiler, Ings front bumper down to the Recaro Racing seat, Alcon 4 pistion caliper and Greddy Ti-C Cat-Back exhaust screams authentic & quality. We'll leave you with a full break down of all the mods below. Exterior: Advan Racing RGII Silver 18×9 29offset with Advan centre cap Yokohama S Drive 225/40/18 Type R Vivid Blue peral Project Kits 40 neo chrome wheel nuts Ings Front bumper Ings Rear bumper Ings side skirt JDM civic Headlight JDM civic Tail light JDM civic Fender APR Canard Spoon style carbon fiber trunk Mugen style carbon fiber hood Mugen style GT spoiler Mugen style window visor Carbon Fiber vinyl roof Hella Horn Interior: Defi Advance CR oil pressure gauge Defi Advance CR oil temp gauge Defi Advance CR water temp gauge Mugen Si shift knob Skunk 2 short shifter Personal 335mm racing steering wheel NRG short hub NRG quick release RECARO Pole Position racing seat 7″ double din DVD/MP3 player MTX 4 channel amps MTX 2 channel amps Vibe 6″ speaker, tweeter with crossover (front & rear) Energy 12″ subwoofer Clarion equalizer Brake & Supension: Alcon 4 pistion caliper Hawk HP+ brake pad (front & rear) Racing Brake 2 piece brake rotor (front) Goodrich stainless steel brake line Motul RBF600 brake fluid Skunk 2 Pro-C coilover Ebiach 32mm front swaybar Progress 22mm rear swaybar Ultra Racing strut bar (front & rear) Beaks lower tie bar T1R rear camber arm Ingalls front camber bolt Engine: Injen cold air intake Skunk 2 race header Greddy Ti-C Cat-Back exhaust Hondata Flash Pro Apex-i ground kit Ingalls torque damper Skunk 2 Magentic engine oil & transmission oil dring plug Optima Yellow top battery JDM Red Valve cover cover We gotta give a huge shout out to Next Mod for agreeing to share their awesome rides with us.

Bitter Seeds (Milkweed Triptych #1) by Ian Tregillis
|Written by Cameron on Feb 18, 2013 | One comment | Forum Discussion
|Filed under: 2010, Alternative History, Bloody or Gritty, Character-driven, Ian Tregillis, Male Protaganist, Military, Political Intrigue, Reviews, Science Fiction, Series, Tor, Trilogy, Unique Magic System
In 2010, Ian Tregillis took the SF/F world by storm with his stunning alternative World War II debut, Bitter Seeds. Tregillis received a large amount of attention because he was groomed under the tutelage of some of fantasy's greats, such as George R.R. Martin and Daniel Abraham. If his teachers were not enough to lure you in, its arresting hardcover of a woman holding a novel and trampling over a pile of skulls just might be. Given these pieces of information, you probably concluded that Bitter Seeds is a dark romp through the corridors of war and how it changes us, for better or for worse.
World War II rages on, and neither the United States nor Germany is willing to give up any ground. That is, until a brilliant German scientist cracks the genetic code and creates machines that allow humans to gain superpowers, to become the Übermenschen of Nietzsche-an fame. To combat this escalation of German power, Britain enlists the help of warlocks. In between these two powerhouses is a normal British operative who must figure out how to stop the magical Reich. The war is at its boiling point, and sacrifices will be necessary. Neither side will come out unscathed.
An old dog still has some new tricks
One of the interesting things Tregillis does is take fairly old powers and make them interesting again. For example, one character can turn invisible, which is a concept that has beaten readers across the head for ages, but Tregillis uses it in a novel way. In addition, Tregillis's no-holds-barred approach to combat allows these powers to have new life. In war, there are no moral limits and thus, the characters beautifully exploit their powers to the fullest extent. This does not mean the characters can wantonly fling their powers about, however. They are intimately aware of the limits of their power and the fact that they are still mortal.
Now that is a character arc
Where the magic and technology is really intriguing, the characters are even more interesting. The British side is housed by a cadre of good-willed individuals who are trying to end the war to protect their country and loved ones. In their attempt to stop the war, the British have to make many sacrifices, drink in the proverbial abyss that war inevitably brings. The Germans do not fare much better since they are held back by the Reich's bureaucracies and the taxing mental toll their superman status brings. All of these character changes come together to make quite an exciting read because it shows just how far a person is willing to go to win.
The authorial hand
As previously mentioned, this was Tregillis's first novel, and it shows in a number of places. On the surface level, there are pacing issues and some seemingly silly tactics employed by the main characters. The grossest grievance I can level at Bitter Seeds is that, at times, Tregillis does not let the despair of war grow naturally. I completely understand that war is gritty, but Tregrillis seems to place the characters at just the right time to have the worst possible thing to occur to them. This really stretched my suspension of disbelief. Of course, these are just small grievances that I am sure will be buffed out in the next two novels.
Why should you read this book?
George R.R. Martin liked it—isn't that enough for you? Well, of course not. You should read Bitter Seeds because of the brutal effect of this concocted mix of science, magic and grey characters. If you are looking for a new and exciting voice in fantasy and science-fiction or a voice that rings true on the tolls of war, then look no further than Ian Tregillis.

Labatt may if needed, fire several employee's for illegal actions during their wildcat strike. Labatt will concider the first 100 resumes sent to their office for the position of "unskilled labour". New hires will not receive the rate of pay in the mid $30 per hour range most Labatt employee's now receive but will start with a mid $20 per hour range with a strong benifit package. If you are interested in one of these positions, apply online with the phrase, "hell yes me son, I'll do dat job".

And you talk about whiners? How about that Richard Alexander, Bradley George and Denis Mahoney? Cut wages to workers, pay no taxes or Workers' Comp, lower prices for fish, oil, ores and lumber. Nothing about building our province by creating better paying jobs or more or better businesses and making stuff move ahead. This is what capitalists do when they have no guts and drive. Just whine and whine to scab a few twisted bucks into their own pockets by decreasing the wages and working conditions, raw materials prices and the taxes they should pay. This mentality just swirls the economy and society in closer and closer on itself until it collapses. We should be aware what is going on and that making a few stingy bucks for whining business owners or their running dogs does not improve our lot, our province or our society.

Irreparable harm! Irreparable harm? I don't think this phrasing is in contact with the real world. Irreparable harm? Really? You would think that having some common sense would be a requirement to earning a large salary and a large pension that was just lumped into the province's unfunded debts and is a burden on the backs of everyday workers like those at Labatts. It would seem to me that "irreparable harm" has more to do with the aloof sentiments of the 1%ers who couldn't be bothered with the insignificant every day lives of the taxpayers who have to make the money to pay for hospitals, schools, roads, buildings, the legal system and all the rest. "Irreparable harm" seems a justification to prolong the strike by making it more and more comfortable for the company and decrease the taxes coming into the coffers of the province to pay government-funded salaries and pensions. Companies are always trying to cut what they have to pay out for wages, raw materials, buildings and taxes and increase what they take in by bumping up their prices. That's capitalism. However those profits go outside this province; the workers' wages run our own economy so why cut our own throats. I enjoy Quidi Vidi products so it would appear I won't be drinking Labatts any time soon; however cuts to government services and tax increases seem to be in our current and future expectations.

The private sector is sick of you (all Unions) whining about paying into your own pension fund and looking to secure your own well being for the future. Wake up! It's 2013 you need to take some responsibility for your financial future. Companies (including government) can no longer afford to provide FULL benefit packages. Take a look around-countries are crumbling because governments (Greece etc) have gone bankrupt trying to pay out pensions. You will receive ZERO public support because guess what Blocker- we already have to pay for our own benefits-it's called life. Go ahead and be a moron and boycott the product that pays you, and when ABINBEV pulls out and you realize that you are qualified to do nothing else-get a job like the rest of us and smile while you pay for your own benefits and financial security for your OWN retirement.

The point... Suzanne is that Labbat is taking livelihoods AWAY from their own workers; and for the strikers to call on people to continue to reward Labatt by buying their product would be, in your words, moronic. Just because you are either too privileged or too pathetic to stand up for yourself doesn't mean that others should allow themselves to be walked over. Oh and your interpretation of the Greek situation is as sophomoric as it is laughable.

Well, Suzanne consider yourself lucky to be in a society that has unions. It is not suprising to see that the private sector is sick of unions, after all thay force employers to pay fair compensation, something they have never done unless they have to. Even those who are not in unions, benefit from them, as employers raise standards just to try to keep unions out. So you see, even though you do not belong to a union you have benefited from them, unless, of course you are an employer. As far as paying into their own pension, unions have always paid for their own pensions and benefits, when they negotiate, they divert part of the wage package to benefits. It does not show up on the pay stub, but they pay for them, just the same. As far as govts go, they are in trouble for many reasons, massive company bailouts and preferential business tax rates amongst them. And , yes boycotts are the way to go, to try and force fair settlements. And, i can tell you if if were not for the lesson nefoundlanders taught coke when they left, both Labatt and Molson would have left a long time ago. This lesson is not lost on them, they know whoever leaves first will pay the price. Again, I can only conclude that you are either an employer or you are jealous of those who have what it takes to stand up and fight for a better life for their families.

I did not support the Labattt workers because I was not a union member. I cheered when they laid off government employees because I don't want to pay taxes. I chided the airport workers because (I assume) I am more educated than me and therefore more entitled. I know nothing about the RBC workers in Toronto who were forced to train the scabs that took their jobs because I have no interest in mainlanders. Now my employer is talking about out-sourcing my job -- WHY IS NO ONE SUPPORTING ME?!

Smitty, perhaps no one is supporting you because they are not aware of your caseyou say in your own comment, because you don't care about anyone else's situation. As far as govt workers, be glad you have their incomes supporting you economy. Just imagine how bad the Canadian economy would be if the billions the govt spends on health and social progams and the people who administer them was not their right now. We would be in another full blown depression. It is bad enough that companies and Mr. Harper are doing their best to suppress wages. Just think about this, companies do not create sustainable jobs. Consumers make jobs sustainable, and when they do not have dispossible income, they do not buy cars, tvs,computers, go to restaruants, shows, clubs or shopping for extras. Ibelieve we are in a time that is very similar to the 1920's when all of the wealth was being amassed by a small segment of the population, a situation which contributed to the great depression.

Actually, Blocker, I was paraphrasing Martin Niemöllers "First they came for the Socialists..." a reference to Hitler's ability to carry out the holocaust by pitting islated people against each other.

Unions support and fight for you every day whether you know or appreciate it or not. With so many large corporations and especially foreign ones taking billions of $$ of profit out of the country, there will soon be no manufacturing industry or enough sustainable jobs to support our country.

The above comment was submitted due to the fact that I submitted a comment last night outlining this company's greed and it has not been published. If this company is going to close the plant they need no excuses, they will just do it. The company is worth over 100 BILLION dollars, Makes billons in profit every year. Paid the top 40 execs approx 2Billion in bonuses last year including approx 184 million to its ceo. they cut wages and benefits to both salaried and union employees and tranfer jobs out of the country. The reductions they impose on all their employees hurt your economy. They mean less disposable income to spend, money that supports your jobs and businesses. Don't be jealous of their wages, the money they spent may be keeping you employed.

Dianne is a powerhouse. Not only does she blog at Veggie Girl she is now the owner/editor of Chic Vegan. She also does marketing and design at Vegan Heritage Press, does health coaching and teaches cooking classes. I think we may be tied for person with the most jobs!
While you're at Veggie Girl to get the recipe for Lentil Quinoa Taco Filling make sure to pick out a few of her amazing recipes to make this week too.
You need a side or two to go with your tacos, so why not try this easy refried bean recipe. it also uses a 1 1/2 to 2 quart slow cooker so it even fits the theme of the week.
Refried beans won't win any beauty contest, but they are cheap, tasty and good for you. I promise you they taste great even if they just look okay!
The recipe below is a jumping off point. You can add green chilies, chopped hot peppers, lime juice, sautéed onions and peppers, even beer if you're so inclined.
Beyond Easy Not-Refried Beans
soy-free, gluten-free
Makes 2 to 3 cups
**This recipe uses a smaller slow cooker 1 1/2 to 2 quarts – you can double the recipe and use a 3 1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker
- 1 cup dry pinto beans
- 3 cup water (plus extra noted in recipe)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (can use 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder instead)
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- A few dashes liquid smoke or smoked salt, optional
- Tabasco or other hot sauce, optional
- salt, to taste
The night before: In your slow cooker add the dried beans, water, garlic, and chili powder. Cook on low overnight. (If your 1 1/2 quart slow cooker does not have a low/high setting then it should run on low.)
In the morning: Add the liquid smoke if using and 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water depending on how long you will be gone for the day. You can cook these a very long time if you just add extra water.
Before serving: Take a wooden spoon and mix the beans together smashing some again the walls of the slow cooker if there are still too many whole beans. Adjust seasonings and add hot sauce, salt, or other add-ins now.
Serve as-is over brown rice with salsa for the easiest meal ever, or serve in tacos or burritos.

Before there were golf courses at every turn, before lawn mowers outnumbered lawns, before commercial fertilizers were available at Wal-Mart, there was manure ...
Interestingly, no one race, tribe or person can be attributed with the use of organic fertilizers to boost crops. Its history started with that of plant cultivation itself ... some 10,000 years ago. Native American tribes of the American east coast used fish to fertilize numerous crops. The most common species used for this purpose was the menhaden. The Narraganset called it "munnawhatteaug," which roughly translates to "that which manures." English colonists soon corrupted the word into "menhaden." The Abenaki of Maine called them "pauhagen," their word for "fertilizer," hence "pogy," still a common name for the fish Squanto likely taught the Pilgrims to plant with their corn.
For much of the coastal farmland of New England and the mid-Atlantic, menhaden actually became an industrial-scale fertilizer during the early 19th century. Farmers often joined ranks to form small companies–with jaunty names like Coots, Fish Hawks, Eagles, Pedoodles, and Water Witches–that owned the boats, huge nets, and draught horses necessary to catch and haul tens and even hundreds of thousands of fish at a time.
Driven by industrialization, demand for lubricants and liquid fuel soared. Initially, this market was satisfied primarily by whale oil, but hunting caused whale populations to plummet. After the 1850s, menhaden, consequently, became the country's greatest source of industrial oil. Menhaden oil production was twice that of whale oil as early as the mid-1870s. Over 400 ships, from Maine down to the Carolinas, chased schools of the fish, sometimes 40 miles long. A single haul from a purse seine would often yield enough menhaden to weigh the equivalent of a blue whale. Their oil was extracted at nearly 100 factories, which sold the by-product as fertilizer to the nascent agricultural industry. The harvest of menhaden became a major component of this country's economy.
But this isn't about fish. It's about fertilizer. Which, naturally, brings us to Chicago's stockyards.
Fifteen rickety railcars delivered the first bovine arrivals to the Union Stock Yards & Transit Co. of Chicago on Christmas Day 1865. During the Civil War, the Union Army's ravenous demand helped to bolster the city's meatpacking industry into the largest the world had ever seen. With unprecedented growth, came growing pains. Consolidating the city's scattered stockyards into one colossal site seemed the only way to handle the swell. To make usable a tract of adjacent swampland, some 100 men dug 30 miles of ditches and drains that emptied into a fork of the Chicago River, later termed "Bubbly Creek" when slaughterhouse offal mired its waters.
Covering a half square mile, the yards soon filled with livestock in numbers never before witnessed. During World War I and the height of its existence, 15 million animals made their way through Chicago's stockyards in a single year, resulting in nearly nine million pounds of meat per day. There was nothing like it and nothing quite like the volume of manure generated by that many animals in one place, which brings us back, once again, to our subject.
The November 11, 1908 Breeder's Gazette included a story about utilizing stockyard waste, one worth revisiting. It would seem that the "virtues" of manure had only recently been unveiled to the growing populace. It is best told in its original form:
Until a few years ago even the barnyard manure pile was not always regarded as an asset of especial value. Every ocean-bound creek and river carried leached fertility, robbing the soil forever. Wherever a stockyard perched on the bank of a river, manure was persistently dumped into the passing current as the most expeditious method of disposal. Fertilizer values running into uncounted and inestimable millions have been wasted in this reckless manner, but the inevitable change has already been registered. Instead of a waste product, stockyard companies find manure a salable product and an accumulation impossible. Owners of large feed lots in various sections of the country no longer appeal to neighboring farmers to haul away the manure. Commercially, animal waste is acquiring standards.
Probably the American farmer will never place the same value on fertilizers that John Chinaman does. The wily Asiatic is credited with keeping his manure in fire and burglar-proof receptacles. While this is merely an exaggeration of speech, the Mongolian who may be found raising vegetables in the environs of the great American cities produces incredible quantities. His method of cultivation is intensive in the extreme, possible only by liberal applications of liquid fertilizer. It is not the American farmer, but the agricultural specialist who is responsible for developing trade in fertilizers. Adjacent to New York, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia and other large cities are thousands of glass-roofed acres devoted to the floral propagation. Thousands of other acres produce vegetables at a season when out-of-door cultivation is impossible. The up-to-date vegetable grower in the North is busiest when nature frowns on activity in that sphere of production and his industry would be impossible without manure. It engenders heat and supplies plant food. The open-air gardener also crops his land in such an exhausting manner that manure must be applied annually by the many tons to the acre. The great and ever increasing park systems of the country call for more fertilizer annually, all of which must pass through commercial channels. Little wonder then that the refuse of the stockyards is carefully conserved.
Probably the largest accumulation of manure found anywhere is at the Chicago stockyards. Other markets produce it in smaller quantities, but their market is local, much of the product being hauled to adjacent farms and gardens in its original form. At Chicago, a definite system has developed and a regular scale of grades established from coarse strawy manure, worth $6 to $8 per car, valuable mainly for the liquids it has absorbed, to pulverized fertilizer quoted in bags at $18 per ton. The quantity of manure left by the 40,000,000 or more animals reaching the livestock markets of the United States annually may be imagined and yet a few years ago, most of it was wasted. St. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha and Sioux City hauled stockyard refuse to the river at considerable expense as the most expeditious and inexpensive method of disposal. Even farmers in the immediate vicinity refused the opportunity to carry the stuff away. The remarkable fertility of Washington and Jackson Parks, Chicago, is attributable to manure. For many years a conspicuous feature of stockyard landscape was a huge pile of decomposing refuse. During the winter months, thousands of tons of this condensed fertilizer were placed on the sterile gravel ridges created by the receding waters of Lake Michigan that the people of Chicago might have breathing space. The cavalcade transporting this manure from the stockyards was gaudily caparisoned. Harness glittered with resplendent brass and horses were the best that money could purchase, the procession moving with precision under the watchful eye of a uniformed, mounted marshal.
That stockyards dump has long since been replaced by a spur track where a string of cars is always waiting. The sorting process is severe, furnishing material that goes to the drier and pulverizer where, after careful preparation, it is sold on a guaranteed analysis. The coarse residue is sent to nearby points, florists and gardeners fairly clamoring for it. Mixing hog and sheep manure pulverized is the acme of fertilizer quality. Enormous quantities are used in cultivating house plants. New England tobacco growers are heavy buyers of concentrated manures and demand is always in excess of supply.
A few years ago manure was a serious menace to atmospheric purity at the big sheep feeding stations around Chicago. Feed yard owners actually paid the expense of hauling it to adjacent farms, soliciting permission to dump the stuff. Under changed conditions, each plant has a drier and whenever a carload is ready, it is promptly consigned to some customer in the East, orders being booked for months in advance. When St. Paul and Minneapolis became the centers of a great mutton-finishing industry years ago, manure disposal presented itself as a problem, but was solved by the hay-farming community nearby. Sheep feeders needed hay in large quantities and demand soon created a supply. Farmers discovered that the bald hills of Ramsey and Hennepin counties once treated with liberal applications of sheep manure produced grass luxuriantly and all winter they hauled hay to the feed yards, returning with the fertilizer that insured a succeeding crop. Had the mutton feeding industry in that locality not dwindled to small proportions in recent years, this by-product would be going east in dried and pulverized form by the trainload.
Coincident with placing a market value on what was but recently a stockyard incubus, a growing appreciation of the value of manure is evident everywhere. Tobacco growers in the East close feed every winter a large number of cattle not with the object of profit on the feeding operation, but solely for the purpose of securing manure, not an ounce of which is permitted to waste. Illinois, Iowa and Missouri corn growers prefer running sheep in their cornfields if they can thereby secure the market value of the grain consumed, realizing that the fertilizing value of the operation yields a profit. Land thus treated invariably responds with increased yields of grain in subsequent seasons. Southern Michigan, denuded of fertility by continued wheat growing, discovered a route to prosperity through the mutton finishing lot and farmers in that state now feed sheep and lambs regardless of cost to get a supply of manure. Land in the lower tiers of counties of the Wolverine State has trebled in value in a decade where sheep have been fed. Interest in manure has revived everywhere and in the economy of the future the compost pile will have a fitting and conspicuous place.
Within the memory of the present generation, cottonseed found a repository in the refuse pile, packing house by-products were dumped into vacant lots when no handy stream could be utilized for the purpose, and mill screenings (for which the sheep feeder is now asking $15 to $18 per ton) were consigned to the Mississippi River by Minneapolis millers. Material formerly wasted is now converted into manufactured product worth many million dollars annually and it was but logical that manure should finally receive enumeration in the category of salvage. An eminent engineer commenting on Chicago's expenditure of $50,000,000 in constructing a canal to carry the sewage of the western metropolis expressed the opinion that the money had been wasted. "What Chicago should have constructed was a reduction plant capable of converting sewage of the city into commercial fertilizer," he said. "Some day and perhaps the time is not far distant, every urban community of considerable size in the country will possess such a plant and they will all pay dividends.
And that, folks, explains how Chicago's parks and public spaces became so lush and green ... and how manure rose to its current level of distinction in the annuls of American history–no shit! POSTSCRIPT—The Chicago Stockyards were one of the city's world-famous wonders, visited by nearly every tourist and many luminaries from around the globe. Founded on its railroads, the stockyards became obsolete with the advent of refrigerated trucks and the interstate highway system. Packers decentralized and moved west, bringing this chapter to a close that had endured for almost a century.

I also am having difficulty obtaining a product request code for Autodesk Inventor 2010. I have an activation code and an internet connection yet it still asks me for the request code.
Are the commands you listed in your previus post to be carried out after you open/run Autodesk Inventor 2010?
My issue is that I cannot find it on my computer to actually open/run it in the first place! I did not have this issue when activating Autodesk AutoCAD 2010.
you can do it within the program; like i mentioned or you can do in the splash screen on initial startup.
have you installed Inventor ?
I have dowloaded Inventor 2010 but it does not appear on my computer programs list.
It tells me on the Autodesk website that I need the request code which appears when I open Inventor, but I can not open it as I can not locate it.
I am assuming I can not install it until I have the software activated which means I need the request code.
you only need serial number to install the product, if you don't have this yet,
please try
I am having the exact same problem. I downloaded Autodesk Inventor, but it has not showed up anywhere on my computer, and I cannot find the program to run it. Since I can't run it I cannot get to the steps that it gives to find the request code. Any suggestions?
i figured it out fellow brothers and sisters, windows/autocad problem. i kept clicking on the ativate and closing it and eventually it showed up. normally you should only have to do it once
ok this is getting really annoying ive downloaded 3ds Max, got my serial number and began the activasion proccess i was told from the activation guide. it aked me my serial number and i added it, then it asked the product requet code which im supposed to get when i hit the activation button once i open the software.
Now when i open the application is has 2 buttons "try" and "activate". i choose activate then i must accept the "autodesk privacy policy" and choose continue, after that the activasion screen goes blank, which is where i have to get the code i suppose...
So any help after this story ;p
This is the proccess....

CEN/TC/346/WG4/TG1 Sites and Buildings Intended for the Storage and Use of Collections
Under the CEN 346 standards project and the UK's principal board B/560, the UK is leading on the development of a new standard for museum, gallery, archive and library buildings. This new standard will replace BS5454 (recommendations for archival storage and exhibition) and cover all collection types. In order that UK expertise can be brought to the European discussions on this potentially significant standard, a panel of UK experts is needed. Tthe standard will cover:
- Hazards to collections
- Specifications for building quality, environment, fire protection and security
with the aim of providing recommendations that assist custodians and conservators to specify the qualities necessary to protect collections in new museums etc, and to provide targets for existing locations including in historic buildings.
The Environment element of the UK's contribution is expected to comprise the new PAS 198, currently out for public enquiry. A new PD5454 archives guidance paper, under development and expected for enquiry soon, will also contribute to the work on the new CEN standard. In addition a number of recent or emerging CEN standards on relevant topics will inform or be referred to by the new standard, to avoid duplication. The UK Mirror Committee will meet about three times per year and communicate by email in between. The committee can appoint ONE non-institutional expert to receive travel to accompany the TG1 convenor to meetings in Europe when required.
If you have detailed experience of the management practice and science of museum, archive and library buildings and would like to play a part in creating this important standard, please contact

Commonwealth of Massachusetts
A Proclamation
His Excellency Governor Deval L. Patrick
Whereas Children are the Commonwealth's greatest resource and deserve our utmost protection and care; and
Whereas Among the most important issues facing us today, child abuse and neglect crosses all cultural, ethnic, economic and social lines; and
Whereas The best means to prevent child abuse and neglect is by providing parents with the skills, information and resources they need and deserve to be the best parents they can be; and
Whereas Child abuse and neglect is often generational within families, and the most important factor in breaking that cycle is to ensure that children grow up in safe and caring environments, and
Whereas When parents experience positive social connections they feel less isolated and frustrated and are less likely to commit abuse or neglect; and
Whereas When parents understand child development, their expectations of child behavior is more appropriate, and when coupled with useful parenting tools, such as positive discipline techniques, knowledgeable parents have more confidence in their parenting skills and create healthier home environments for their children; and
Whereas Protecting children and preventing child abuse and neglect in our Commonwealth requires the participation and partnership of every Massachusetts citizen, business leader and family-service professional,
Now, Therefore, I, Deval L. Patrick, Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, do hereby proclaim April 2012, to be,
Child Abuse Prevention Month
And urge all the citizens of the Commonwealth to take cognizance of this event and participate fittingly in its observance.
Given at the Executive Chamber in Boston, this ninth day of March, in the year two thousand and twelve, and of the Independence of the United States of America, the two hundred and thirty-fifth.
By His Excellency
Deval L. Patrick
Governor of the Commonwealth
William Francis Galvin
Secretary of the Commonwealth
God Save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

I am already behind in my resolve to keep my blog current! I spent some time this week thinking about the things in my life I would like to change in 2014. I decided to write some of them down and then realized I already had, in 2013, '12, '10, '07, '05… you get the picture. This year is the year I get in better shape, stop procrastinating, work smarter and move beyond my fears to realize my full potential… wait, I think I wrote that in 1995!!!
I am going to take a new (for me) approach and work on a word this year. I have seen several facebook entries using this idea and I like it. Instead of all of those lofty goals of yesteryear, I will try my best to use a word as my guide. My word?
I am sure you will let me know how I do.

The family of an unarmed teenager shot and killed by police continues their call for the killers to be arrested.
Family members and supporters of Ramarley Graham demonstrated in front of City Hall Friday.
The 18-year-old was shot and killed in his Bronx apartment bathroom by police on February 2.
"it's painful that these police are going home to their family and I just have to look at pictures and try to figure what happened, asking myself why," said Franclot Graham, Ramarley's father.
"This family is suffering every single day," said Jose LaSalle of the group "Stop Stop and Frisk." "They are struggling to move on with their life."
The officer and officer's sergeant involved in the shooting have both been placed on modified duty as Bronx prosecutors investigate.

New York's oldest operating tavern: the borough finalists
Of course, once you start looking closer, you find that the definition of bar/tavern/saloon itself gets blurred in a couple of these cases.
5) BRONX 1923 (not 1928 as the big sign indicates!)
Although I've never seen it described as such, I believe the Bronx's oldest bar is the Yankee Tavern, located at 72 East 161st St in the shadow of the elevated subway and old Yankee Stadium. Not surprisingly, it opened the same year as the stadium (1923) to satisfy a predictably parched clientele of baseball fans. Babe Ruth himself would sometimes come in buy a round of brews.
With the new stadium, this should have been a big year for Joe Bastone, whose family has owned the tavern since its opening. Oh it was big all right: Bastone was charged last month for failing to pay over $1 million in taxes on the place.
You don't get more rustic than Staten Island's entrant, Liedy's Shore Inn (748 Richmond Terrace), first opened in 1905 by German immigrant Jacob Liedy. Liedy's was popular with the sailors --affectionately called the 'Snugs' as Sailors Snug Harbor is close by -- and kept alive during Prohibition by bootleggers who came over from Bayonne, NJ, in rowboats. Since then, the inn has stayed in the Liedy family.
A liquor license snafu almost closed the place for good a couple years ago; apparently current owner Larry Liedy kept the liquor license in his dead mother's name.
It's quite possible that Killmeyer's Old Bavaria Inn (4254 Arthur Kill Rd) in Charleston, SI, is older than Liedy's. Their site confirms that the building is older, though its unclear as to when they might have become an operating tavern. Best to grab a drink at both then!

I'll have to take it on its word. PJ Hanley's in Carroll Gardens (449 Court St.) proclaims itself to be the oldest bar in the borough, opening in 1874. In fact, this is where a little fudging comes in. There has been a bar at this location since 1874, originally a saloon for Norwegian customers. During Prohibition it was called Ryan's, where Al Capone purportedly brewed beer in its basement. However, the Hanley family have only owned it since 1958. They sold the bar in 2005 but it retains its name and its charm, freshly renovated and reopened a couple years ago.
To be in operation over 150 years sometimes requires a certain camouflage. Such is the case with Woodhaven's Union Course Tavern (87-48 78th Street) which basically looks somebody's dilapidated two-story house.
I've seen both 1853 and 1855 associated with Union Course. This is not a trivial matter; the claim of 'New York's oldest bar' is at stake. It seems though that the Queens tavern might be fine with Manhattan taking the title. (A plaque outside indicates 1855 as the official date.) It's still a locals bar, far from the hooves of tourists.
It started as the Blue Pump Room, then became Niers Social Hall in 1891. Mae West, who lived in Woodhaven, sometimes performed here; her picture graces the walls of pressed tin today. It's name today comes from a former racetrack that was once the pride of Woodhaven in the 19th century. The racetrack closed in 1888, so the bar must have taken its name affectionately.
Everybody knows the oldest continually operating bar in Manhattan is McSorley's Old Ale House (15 East 7th Street), right? The still-popular old hole in the wall has been serving up its signature brew since 1854, for the likes of Abraham Lincoln, Boss Tweed and John Lennon.
But if you tweak the definition of what 'continually operating' and 'bar' is, you might come up with two other candidates. The building that contains the Bridge Cafe (279 Water St.), near the South Street Seaport, has reportedly been the location of liquor sales since 1794, both as 'wine and porter bottler' and as a boozy 'grocer'.
And then, what to make of Fraunces Tavern (54 Pearl St), one of the city's Revolutionary War era treasures and location of George Washington's farewell speech to the Continental Army? The original building, built in 1719, was opened for business as a tavern as early as 1762. However the tavern has been entirely rebuilt on at least a few occasions. Also, Fraunce's has been so much more than just a tavern.
Again, it's all in how you word it. And after a few drinks, does it really matter?

sonnys in red hook is actually the oldest bar (same family, location, etc) in brooklyn.ReplyDelete
I love Sunny's! According to every source I've seen though, the bar opened in 1890. However it HAS been in the Balzano family the entire time, meaning it might be considered Brooklyn's longest continually owned saloon. Maybe I should swing by and ask Sunny himself....ReplyDelete
In the "longest continually owned/operated" category, I think McManus on 7th @ 19th might be the Manhattan finalist -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_McManus_CafeReplyDelete
Ear Inn is the oldest continually operating bar in Manhattan, operating since 1812. -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Brown_House_(New_York)ReplyDelete
The Bridge Cafe is the oldest in NYC, since 1794. -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_Cafe

...Well, not much to say right now, just a regular 20-something-year-old Chicago native who got bored enough to hang around. More of a Lurker than anything else. I only update this sporadically, so don't be surprised if something doesn't show up here right away. I won't put up relatively minor edits or adopted orphans, either. Speaking of which, if you see a line from me on your user page, don't worry; I was probably just cleaning up the orphan list some more, and your page was on it (or more commonly nowadays, I just ran across your page during a Wiki Walk). NOTE: Due to technical limitations, my handle here is technically G Mon (if you're interested in seeing my edits, they're here). PMs via the link above won't work for the same reason. If you really need to get in contact with me, try looking for me on the forums; I usually hang out in the Trope Repair Shop, Trope Talk, and Wiki Talk areas. Alternatively, you can use the "Send a PM" link near the top (the second row of blue buttons up there, if you're a Known Troper).
NOTE TO TROPERS: If anything on this page gets renamed, feel free to correct the wick to reflect it; just leave a note with the former name in it. Also free are updating a ptitle wick moved to its non-ptitled version and moving works pages wicks to an appropriate namespace. Just leave an edit reason saying as much.

You have little or no experience with unsurfaced roads such as gravel or dirt.
Level 2 - NOVICE
You have minimal riding experience, but have been riding for at least one season. You feel fairly confident riding in inclement weather conditions. You are comfortable with curves and minor leans, and are capable of performing emergency procedures such as fast braking and swerving. You have little or no experience with unsurfaced roads such as gravel or dirt.
Level 3 - INTERMEDIATE
You can ride well at higher speeds and on roads with extreme curves or steep ascents and descents. You have a good understanding of body language as it applies to motorcycle riding, as well as the mechanics of how a motorcycle works. You have no difficulty with most inclement weather conditions. You have some experience with unsurfaced roads, but potentially less experience with more challenging enduro riding.
Level 4 - ADVANCED

Equal Protection
Baskin v. Bogan
Dist. Ct. did not err in entering judgment in separate cases that invalidated Indiana's (statutory) and Wisconsin's (state constitution) bans on same-sex marriage. Challenged laws discriminated against homosexual minority based upon immutable characteristic, and states' rationale that same-sex couples and their children do not need marriage because same-sex couples do not produce children was irrational. Ct. further found that said laws violated notions of equal protection since states failed to articulate any rationale for allowing infertile, heterosexual couples to marry and obtain financial benefits granted to marriages of fertile, heterosexual couples, but failing to give same financial benefits of marriage to same-sex couples who also do not produce children. Additionally, states' solution for their concern regarding problem with unwanted children was not tailored to said concern because by denying marital rights to same-sex couples, they reduced incentive of such couples to adopt unwanted children and impaired welfare of those children who had already been adopted by same-sex couples.
Lee v. Godinez
Director of Department of Corrections is given statutory discretion to consider an eligible inmate's history of domestic battery convictions in determining whether to grant inmate discretionary early release. The award of supplemental sentencing credit (SSC) is, and always has been, discretionary, and thus changes to SSC statute do not violate ex post facto laws. Whether to grant work release or electronic home detention are matters of day-to-day operations within discretion for Department of Corrections. (HOLDRIDGE, concurring; McDADE, specially concurring.)
