Benjamin Berell[1] Ferencz (born March 11, 1920)[2][3] is a Romanian-born American lawyer. He was an investigator of Nazi war crimes after World War II and the Chief Prosecutor for the United States Army at the Einsatzgruppen Trial, one of the twelve military trials held by the U.S. authorities at Nuremberg, Germany. Later, he became a vocal advocate of the establishment of an international rule of law and of an International Criminal Court. From 1985 to 1996, he was Adjunct Professor of International Law at Pace University.
He was born in Transylvania, from where his family immigrated into the United States when he was ten months old. According to his own account, the family left Romania to evade the persecution of Hungarian Jews after Hungary had ceded the territory where they lived to Romania after World War I.[4] The family settled in New York City, where they lived in the Lower East Side in Manhattan.[5]
He studied crime prevention at the City College of New York and won a scholarship for the Harvard Law School with his criminal law exam. At Harvard, he studied under Roscoe Pound[6] and also did research for Sheldon Glueck, who at that time was writing a book on war crimes. Ferencz was graduated from Harvard in 1943.[7] After his studies, he joined the U.S. Army, where he served in the 115th AAA Gun Battalion, an anti-aircraft artillery unit.[5] In 1945, he was transferred to the headquarters of General Patton's Third Army, where he was assigned to a team tasked with setting up a war crimes branch and collecting evidence for such crimes. In this function, he was then sent to the concentration camps as they were liberated by the U.S. army.[5]
On Christmas 1945,[6] Ferencz was honorably discharged from the Army with the rank of Sergeant. He returned to New York, but was recruited only a few weeks later to participate as a prosecutor in the Subsequent Nuremberg Trials in the legal team of Telford Taylor. Taylor appointed him Chief Prosecutor in the Einsatzgruppen Case—Ferencz's first case.[5] All of the 22 men on trial were convicted; 14 of them received death sentences, of which four were eventually carried out.
In a 2005 interview for the Washington post he revealed some of his activities during his period in Germany:
Ferencz stayed in Germany after the Nuremberg Trials, together with his wife Gertrude,[5] whom he had married in New York[9] on March 31, 1946.[2] He participated in the setup of reparation and rehabilitation programs for the victims of persecutions by the Nazis, and also had a part in the negotiations that led to the Reparations Agreement between Israel and West Germany signed on September 10, 1952[10] and the first German Restitution Law in 1953.[5] In 1957, the family—they had four children by then—returned to the U.S., where Ferencz entered private law practice[9] as a partner of Telford Taylor.[11]
But the experiences made just after World War II left a defining impression on Ferencz.[9] After thirteen years, and under the impression of the events of the Vietnam War, Ferencz left the private law practice and henceforth worked for the institution of an International Criminal Court that would serve as a worldwide highest instance for issues of crimes against humanity and war crimes.[9] He also published several books on this subject. Already in his first book published in 1975, entitled Defining International Aggression-The Search for World Peace, he argued for the establishment of such an international court.[7] From 1985 to 1996, Ferencz also worked as an Adjunct Professor of International Law at Pace University at White Plains, New York.[4]
An International Criminal Court was indeed established on July 1, 2002, when the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court entered in force. The U.S. did sign the treaty, but did not subsequently ratify it, and furthermore concluded a large number of bilateral agreements with other states that would exclude U.S. citizens from being brought before the ICC.[12]
Ferencz has repeatedly argued against this procedure and suggested that the U.S. simply join the ICC without reservations, as it was a long-established rule of law that "law must apply equally to everyone", also in an international context.[9] In this vein, he has suggested in an interview given on August 25, 2006, that not only Saddam Hussein should be tried, but also George W. Bush because the Iraq War had been begun by the U.S. without permission by the UN Security Council.[13]

09/01/11 A local group has decided to step into the battle over the wind in Marshall County.
NextEra CorporationŌĆÖs proposed ŌĆ£wind farmŌĆØ project in Marshall and Fulton Counties has brought a storm of controversy from property owners opposed to wind turbines in the county, especially around Lake Maxinkuckee. While the opposition to the wind projects have made their position clear another group of residents has their own take on the controversy.
ŌĆ£Long before any of this ever happened there has been a group of people that have been meeting on a regular basis to talk about ways to help our community be more resistant to the affect of diminishing fossil fuels,ŌĆØ said Mike Good, one of the members of the group. ŌĆ£They call them ŌĆśtransition communitiesŌĆÖ and renewable energy sources have always been a big interest of what weŌĆÖre doing.ŌĆØ
GoodŌĆÖs group has put together a blog ŌĆö http://marshallcountywindfarm.blogspot.com/ ŌĆö to present more information for those in the county as the topic continues to be debated.
ŌĆ£There was a lot of wrong information out there about just where the project is proposed to go,ŌĆØ said Good. ŌĆ£The Lake Maxinkuckee Environmental folks were concerned about the wind turbines on the horizon but really where this project is supposed to go has more affect on Argos than Culver. ItŌĆÖs important that people know exactly where the project is going to be located.ŌĆØ
GoodŌĆÖs group also wants residents to be aware of the economic impact of the projects on the county.
ŌĆ£YouŌĆÖre looking at close to $180 million invested in the county in the 20 year life span of these turbines,ŌĆØ he said. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs another cash crop for the farmers whose land they place turbines on. Anywhere from $8,000 to $12,000 a year per turbine in lease arrangements. They project that they will hire at least eight new employees at salaries between $40,000 and $50,000. NextEra will be paying property taxes on all their facilities.ŌĆØ
And of course the bottom line is the environment.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖll be directly displacing coal with the energy produced by the wind facility here,ŌĆØ said Good. ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs less toxins in the air.ŌĆØ
The blog will be updated on a regular basis as the debate goes on.
ŌĆ£We just want to be sure that people have accurate information, especially about the site of the project as this goes forward,ŌĆØ said Good.

Third Party Manufacturers / Re: Sigma 135mm f/2 DG OS Art Coming? [CR1]« on: December 17, 2013, 08:58:23 PM »
Its strange that canon doesn't have more IS lenses. 100mm 2.8L IS Macro is the only macro IS prime canon has near that range. The one drawback of that lens is that manual focus is twitchy at longer distances. I am hoping for a non-macro IS prime in the 90-135 range. Perferably canon. This is an enticing rumor

NASA's Nanosail-D is scheduled to launch tomorrow, and the Planetary Society wishes the mission every success. Developed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight and Ames Research Centers, Nanosail helped inspire the Planetary Society's LightSail spacecraft, which is scheduled to be ready early in 2011 to carry out the first solar sail-propelled flight in Earth orbit.
"Nanosail has opened the way for a class of advanced spacecraft that someday may lead us to the stars. Its successful flight will advance solar sail technology and may lead to new applications for removing orbital debris through atmospheric drag," said Louis Friedman, Project Director of LightSail and co-founder of the Planetary Society.

Buchi, Iluyemi Florence and Musa, Mohamed Hanafi and Othman, Radziah and Kamarudin, Mohd Salleh (2010) Nutritional evaluation of fermented palm kernel cake using red tilapia. African Journal of Biotechnology, 9 (4). pp. 502-507. ISSN 1684–5315
- Published Version
The use of palm kernel cake (PKC) and other plant residues in fish feeding especially under extensive aquaculture have been in practice for a long time. On the other hand, the use of microbial-based feedstuff is increasing. In this study, the performance of red tilapia raised on Trichoderma longibrachiatum fermented PKC (TL-PKC) was evaluated. Seven isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets were formulated. Reference diet, D1 had no PKC, while the other diets, D2 to D5 contained 10, 20, 30 and 40% fermented PKC (TL-PKC), respectively. All diets contained 1% chromic oxide as an inert marker. Red tilapias of average weight of 2.5 g were fed on these six diets for a period of 8 weeks. The fish were fed at 4% of their body weight, twice a day. There was no difference in mortality rate of fish on the various diets used. However, weight gain decreased with an increase of TL-PKC in diets. There were significant (P £ 0.05) differences in the apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of protein and dry matter between the reference diet and diet containing TL-PKC. The ADC of both protein and dry matter generally decrease when the percentage TL-PKC was increased in the test diets. There was also no significant difference in carcass protein content among fish on the various diets. However, there was a significant (P £ 0.05) increase in the levels of phosphorus, calcium and copper in the carcass of fish raised on TL-PKC, but the level of lipids was significantly reduced. Decreasing dry matter and protein digestibility with corresponding weight reduction may have resulted from increased crude fibre content of diets with TL-PKC.

A twist is a way to share your own spin on our recipies!
|3 poblano chiles
|4 cups warm water
|3 tablespoons canola oil
|2 cups firmly packed spinach leaves
|1 1/2 cups diced yellow onion
|2 cups firmly packed fresh cilantro leaves
|1 teaspoon chopped garlic
|Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
|2 cups long-gran white rice
Roast and peel the poblano chiles.
Heat a medium-size pot over medium-high heat, add the oil, onion, and garlic and saute until the onion is translucent. Add the rice and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the water and bring to a rapid boil over high heat. Lower the heat, cover, and cook for 20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked. Remove the pan from the heat and let the rice cool.
Meanwhile, in a large pot, cover the spinach and cilantro with water. Bring just to a boil and then drain and shock the spinach and cilantro under cold water. Working with a handful at a time, squeeze out the excess water.
In the jar of an electric blender, combine the spinach, cilantro, and poblanos and puree until smooth. In a bowl, blend the rice with the spinach puree and season to taste with salt and pepper. In a saucepan, heat the rice over medium heat, stirring frequently, and serve.

Powerful tornadoes like the one that leveled parts of an Oklahoma City suburb have varied widely in number in the past three years, for reasons that can't be blamed on climate change, a federal researcher said.
A swath of the Midwest that's home to 63.9 million people faced a third day of tornadoes, powerful thunderstorms and damaging hail from the same system that spawned yesterday's deadly Oklahoma twister.
A plan by the Weather Channel to name "noteworthy" winter storms has hit its competitors in the commercial forecasting industry like a face full of sleet.
Tropical Storm Katia may grow into a hurricane in the next two days as it moves west-northwest through the mid-Atlantic Ocean, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Hurricane Isaac developed near the mouth of the Mississippi River today on a path that may take it near New Orleans and bring flooding rain to the lower Mississippi Valley, the National Hurricane Center said.
Tropical Storm Nate is expected to become a hurricane today, forcing energy companies to begin evacuating platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. Tropical Storm Maria and Hurricane Katia will probably weaken in the Atlantic.
Hurricane Isaac unleashed a storm surge of as much as 12 feet (3.7 meters) and strong winds as it pushes water over a levee on its path to New Orleans.
A number of years ago in Cambridge, Massachusetts, a young friend from Germany turned to me and commented on the potholed and patched streets that surrounded us, as well as the uneven sidewalks and assorted other rough edges.
Residents of New York and the Northeast who've been bundling against icy weather will probably be spared having to shovel snow this weekend.
Tropical Storm Nate is expected to become the third hurricane of the Atlantic season today or tomorrow as it forced energy companies to evacuate platforms in the Gulf of Mexico and shut oil ports.
"It is unlikely that you will see something as extreme as what was witnessed yesterday."

Projects that have crochet and knitting together can blossom into beautiful things, like this Blooming Spring Hat from Lindsay Obermeyer. Who doesn't love colorful spring hats? With flowers and leaves topping this beanie, you'll be in the spirit of spring in no time!
- 1 Skein Manos (or other worsted weight yarn) in color #70
- Assorted bits of pink, red and green yarn from previous projects
- 1 16" #9 Circular needle
- 1 Set of #9 double points (you could do the whole project on double points)
- 1 G crochet hook (or size to match assorted bits of pink and red)
- 1 Set of straight knitting needles in size to work the green leaves
- 1 Tapestry needle
- Stitch markers
- Scissors
- 4 stitches to the inch
- 6 rows to the inch
- On #9 needle using Manos
Directions for Hat:
- Cast on 80 stitches and join circle.
- Add a stitch marker to mark beginning and end of round.
- Work in Garter Stitch for first inch. Remember that Garter in the round is - *K a round, purl a round* repeat from * to * for one inch.
- Switch to Stockinette Stitch and continue for 4 more inches. In the round, this means you are just knitting.
- On final round of the body, place stitch markers every 10 sts.
- Decrease round is worked as a K2tog after every stitch marker.
- Knit the next round. You will continue working a decrease round and then knitting a round until you have only 8 stitches left. At some point, around 40 stitches, you will want to switch to double pointed needles as the crown of the hat is too small to continue working on a circular needle.
- With 8 stitches left, cut a long tail and pull it through the remaining stitches. Pull firmly and weave in all tails.
Directions for Flowers:
- Chain 21 stitches. Leave a long tail.
- Turn, skip 2 sts.
- Double crochet 3 times in the next stitch.
- Continue working a DC 3 times in each stitch. The piece will begin to form a corkscrew.
- When only 5 stitches remain, work a DC in the next stitch and the rest in a half double crochet. Bind off.
- Leave a long tail.
Directions for Leaves (you will be working the leaves in Garter Stitch):
- Cast on 1 stitch. Leave a long tail.
- Work an increase – 2 stitches.
- Work an increase in both stitches – 4 stitches.
- Work an increase in the end stitches – 6 stitches.
- Knit for 3 rows.
- Work an SSK (slip, slip, knit) on the right side and a K2tog on the left – 4 stitches.
- Work an SSK (slip, slip, knit) on the right side and a K2tog on the left – 2 stitches.
- K2tog. Cut tail and pull through final stitch. Work in this tail, but leave the other.
- Open up the first corkscrew / flower. Use one of the tails and stitch the corkscrew into a spiral / rosette formation onto the crown of the hat. Bring tail to back of work (hat crown) and tie to first tail. Work in ends.
- Continue until all "flowers" are attached.
- Sew on leaves where needed visually. Work in tails.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

CenturyLink Review
CenturyLink's appeal lies primarily in its speeds, which are much faster than most other DSL Internet companies, and should be enough to satisfy heavy Internet users. Sign Up
As far as DSL Internet goes, CenturyLink is incredibly fast, with plans offering up to 40 Mbps. This should allow you to surf the web, watch videos, and play games online without having to endure long load times. These speeds also make CenturyLink a great option for households where there are several computers, smartphones, or tablets all connected to the Internet. Everyone can be online at once and still get the fast Internet service that they expect from CenturyLink.
CenturyLink has a five-year price lock offer available, which ensures that the monthly price that you pay for your DSL Internet service does not go up for five whole years. This offer is pretty much unmatched among DSL providers — and among Internet providers in general — and could be extremely valuable if you are looking to keep your costs low.
CenturyLink offers several bundling options, including the ability to create your own bundle with just the features that you want. You can choose from any of their DSL Internet plans, and add in their home phone service, Verizon Wireless service, and even DIRECTV. Bundling these services together can be a great way to save a little money and is ideal for households looking to eventually purchase TV or phone services as well.
Although CenturyLink offers some pretty phenomenal download rates, their upload speeds are surprisingly lackluster. Every plan, with the exception of the 40 Mbps plan, receives only 896 Kbps. So if you plan on uploading photos or videos to the web, you should be prepared to wait because it could take a while. However, their 40 Mbps plan does offer a 5 Mbps upload speed, which is actually quite good for DSL Internet, and should you choose this plan, you won't have to worry about your uploads taking a long time.
Before you are able to get DSL Internet service from CenturyLink, you must pay the activation fee, which, though not very expensive, is still more money coming out of your pocket. DSL Internet companies by and large do not charge activation fees, so the fact that CenturyLink does is a little surprising. But this shouldn't be a major problem for most people, especially since you get so much from your CenturyLink Internet plan.

text: After placing third in the triple jump at the 2007 NESCAC Track & Field Championships and second the two years before that, Sam Grover '08 (photo) capped his four-year career with a NESCAC title by the slightest of margins during the meet at Hamilton Sat., April 26. With a jump of 47-8 1/2, Grover took first place by less than 1/2 inch while teammate Tommie Lark '11 was third in the event. Grover collected 23 team points for the Cardinals as he also placed fourth in the high jump, fifth in the long jump and fifth in the 110m hurdles. Lark was second in the long jump, less than 1/2 inch out of first, and Mike Moody '10 was second in the javelin with a throw of almost 180 feet. In all the Cardinals gained 41 of their 67 team points, good for fourth place among the 11 colleges, from the field events. Individually on the track, Jonah Blumstein's '09 third-place posting in the 10k led the Cardinals. The distance medley relay squad of Chris Foster '09, Chris Greene '08, Brad Litchfield '09 and Matt Katz '11 set a team mark of 10:21.64 while placing third. During the New England Division III Championships at Coast Guard which concluded Sat., May 3, Grover took another triple jump title with his 47-1 effort. Lark also scored in the triple jump with his fifth-place performance while also taking fifth in the long jump, accounting for Wesleyan's 18 team points as the Cards finished 17th of 26 scoring teams. During the New England Open Championships Thurs.-Sat., May 8-10 at New Hampshire, Grover, Lark, Moody and the 4x800m relay squad of Chris Coleman '09, Foster, Litchfield and Sean Watson '08 combined for 17 team points, allowing Wesleyan to finish 18th. The 4x800m relay shattered the team record set in 1976 (7:52.25) by placing fifth with a time of 7:46.30 ; Moody was seventh in the javelin (185-0) ; and Grover (2nd, 47-9 1/4) and Lark (6th, 46-5 1/4) placed in the triple jump. Grover's jump was his best of the season. A bit earlier in the Little Three meet at Amherst April 19, Grover cleared 6-4 3/4 in the high jump, 21-0 in the long jump and 46-8 1/4 in the triple jump to become a three-event victor for the Cardinals. Grover also added a second-place finish in the 110m hurdles to collect 26 team points as Wesleyan totaled 117 on the afternoon, good enough the beat host Amherst (82) but not enough to overtake Williams (182). Grover was honored by the NESCAC as its Field Performer of the Week. Wesleyan also got a first-place showing from Moody in the javelin (175-7 3/4) as more than half of the squad's point came from the eight field events. Dan Manuyag '09 was second in the 100m dash and third in the 200m event to lead the Cardinals on the track. The last action of the year took place at Wisconsin-Oshkosh Thurs.-Sat., May 22-24 where triple jumpers Grover and Lark competed in the NCAA Division III Championships. Neither Grover, seeded seventh in the country, nor Lark, seeded 15th, qualified for the finals as they placed 10th and tied for 12th during the preliminaries.

Coen Bros Storyboard Artist Coming To The Cinematheque
09/21/10 | Posted by Cinematheque | Posted in Cinematheque
J. Todd Anderson, one of the movie industry's top storyboard artists, will appear in person on Friday, October 8, at 7:30 pm at the Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque to discuss and demonstrate "The Art of Motion Picture Storyboarding." Anderson has been the storyboard artist on every Coen brothers movie starting with RAISING ARIZONA (1987), including the upcoming TRUE GRIT. He has also drawn storyboards for feature films directed by George Clooney, Barry Sonnenfeld, Frank Oz, Michael Almereyda, and others. He is a member of the Directors Guild of America. Anderson will use pen and paper to demonstrate the practice of storyboarding, which allows directors to visualize shots and scenes before committing them to film. He will also bring some of the storyboard "field manuals" that he created for the Coens and answer audience questions. After Anderson's presentation, at 9:30 pm, the Cinematheque will screen FARGO, Joel and Ethan Coen's Oscar-winning 1996 police movie that stars Frances McDormand, William H. Macy, and Steve Buscemi. FARGO, for which Anderson did the storyboards, is the only Coen brothers movie in which he also acts (he plays "Victim in the Field"). Admission to "The Art of Motion Picture Storyboarding" (including the screening of FARGO) is $12, Cinematheque members and CIA students & staff $8. Admission to FARGO only is $9, Cinematheque members and CIA students & staff $6. Tickets can be purchased at the door after 6:30 pm on October 8. The Cinematheque is located inside the Cleveland Institute of Art at 11141 East Boulevard in University Circle. Free parking for filmgoers is available in the CIA's adjacent lot. For further information or images, call John Ewing or Tim Harry at (216) 421-7450 or go to www.cia.edu/cinematheque.

Hi Dr. Lam -
You have done fat transfer on me (September 2007) and OF COURSE, I come to you for my Botox and lip injections. I love everything you do!! Mistakenly and stupidly, Buccal Fat was previous removed and I see a hollowness when I look in the mirror. To me, I would need an implant, Artefill or quite a bit of fat injected in this area. If you draw a triangle from the outer edges of my nose (top of triangle) and move outward towards the jaw, this is the area I feel has lost volume, to include upper lip area. This area does not appear soft but, has a more stern appearance. I would prefer a softer jaw line and fuller areas between the chin and back of jaw.
You looked at it right after my fat transfer and said to wait and see how the effect of the fat transfer on the other parts of my face. Can I come back in and have you look again? Patience is not my strength so, forgive me, if I am being overly anxious.
Thank you!!

Postgame: Wantagh - Manhasset
Tuesday's Nassau Class B semifinal between No. 2 Manhasset and No. 3 Wantagh finished too late to appear in Wednesday's paper so I wanted to provide some additional detail on what ended up being by far the best game of the day. The Warriors (15-3) played by far their best game of the season to upset the Indians, 17-11, setting up a rematch with Garden City in the finals. It is the first time Manhasset...Read more »

Twelve of the 22 players selected for the Under Armour All American North Team are from Long Island.

Manhasset coach Bill Cherry will coach the North Team on July 2 when it plays in the sixth...Read more »
Nassau boys lax top 10
It's playoff time, folks. Just 34 Nassau teams remain, vying for county titles in three classifications. Twelve teams are in the Class A bracket, 16 in Class B and six in Class C. There isn't much change in this week's top 10, as the big guns have used their final couple of games as playoff tune-ups. Garden City, which has won a Nassau-best nine straight games, remains in the top spot. During their...Read more »
Nassau boys lax top 10
With just a little over a week before the Nassau playoffs begin, big shakeups in the top 10, including a new No. 1 -- Garden City. Chaminade's 3-2 loss at Manhasset on Saturday night allows Garden City to reclaim the top spot for the first time since late March. As for Chaminade, things don't get any easier, as it will take a trip to St. Anthony's for a rematch with the Friars this afternoon. The...Read more »

The 120th Woodstick Classic is in the books, as Garden City halted Manhasset's 45-game winning streak with a 10-6 win Saturday night. That means West Islip's 32-game winning streak is now the longest active streak on Long Island. And there's no rest for the weary Indians. They've got another big-time Saturday night showdown this weekend against Chaminade, our top-ranked team in Nassau. The...Read more »

Not very many changes to the top 10 this week. Chaminade remains in the top spot, and only movement is Holy Trinity and Wantagh flipping spots.

First the nitty gritty -- in Gregg Sarra's weekly Big 10, Chaminade remains at No. 4. The Flyers are the...Read more »
Nassau boys lax top 10
Chaminade's reign on top of Long Island lacrosse was short-lived, as the Flyers dropped an 8-7 decision at West Islip on Saturday. But its reign atop Nassau will not end that quickly. After all, there's no shame in losing to a team that has now won 27 straight games. All of the Flyers' goals for this season remain in tact, as they are still the front-runners for the CHSAA title. And despite the...Read more »

So quickly things can change. Garden City came into the season as the rightful owner of the Nassau throne, but has since been unseated by Chaminade, which is off to a phenomenal start. The Trojans' 10-7 loss to Ward Melville, coupled with the Flyers' 10-5 win over rival St. Anthony's, did the trick. Not only is Chaminade the top lacrosse team on the Island, it's also the top team in Gregg Sarra's...Read more »

President Obama held a sure-to-be-historic interview with ABC News today, in which he announced his support for same-sex marriage.
Obama followed Biden's recent approval of gay marriage in the interview, stating that:
I have to tell you that over the course of several years as I have talked to friends and family and neighbors when I think about members of my own staff who are in incredibly committed monogamous relationships, same-sex relationships, who are raising kids together, when I think about those soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained, even now that Don't Ask Don't Tell is gone, because they are not able to commit themselves in a marriage, at a certain point I've just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same sex couples should be able to get married."
The announcement comes a day after North Carolina voted to pass a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage.
What's your stance on gay marriage and/or marriage equality?

The picture showed a nine-year-old boy who was so enormously fat he looked as though he had been blown up with a powerful pump.
"The picture showed a nine-year-old boy who was so enormously fat he looked as though he had been blown up with a powerful pump." - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Augustus Gloop ("The great big greedy nincompoop!" as the Oompa-Loompas sing later) appears in Roald Dahl's story Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which has since been adapted into two films, an opera and a West End musical.
Augustus is a young boy who enjoys eating. His mother, Mrs Gloop, tells us he eats so much chocolate it would have been impossible for him not to find one of the Golden Tickets hidden in Willy Wonka's chocolate bars, and so win a trip to the Chocolate Factory.
In the original story Roald Dahl doesn't tell us where Augustus is from, but in the 1971 film he hails from the fictional town of Dusselheim. In the 2005 film, he's from Düsseldorf, and in the 2013 West End musical production he is from Bavaria. All of these places are in Germany, so most of us think of Augustus as being German.
One thing for certain, though, is that Augustus is a greedy boy. Once inside Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory he's so keen to get started that he won't listen to what Mr Wonka says and very nearly meets a very sticky end in that chocolate river. Luckily, the Oompa-Loompas are on hand to divert Augustus from the fudge room, but it's close...
On film, Augustus has been portrayed by actors Michael Bollner (1971) and Philip Wiegratz (2005).
This stuff is fabulous...Gosh, I need a bucket to drink it properly!

BILLINGS - Wearing nothing but underwear and paint, a member of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) hit the streets of Billings today to protest the meat industry.
The protester was under Sky-Point on the corner of N. 28th Street and N. Second Avenue, in downtown Billings. The women held a sign that read "All animals have the same parts."
"Animals aren't 'breasts' or 'thighs' or 'flanks,'" says PETA campaigner Virginia Fort in a statement. "They think, feel, and want to live, just as you and I do. By exposing my body, I hope to expose others to the benefits of a humane vegan diet."
The animal rights group says they hope this protest will encourage people to view animals as more than walking entrées.

Community Contact Information:Temple Sinai of GlendaleGlendale, CAhttp://www.temple-sinai.net
Goals:- Reduce our carbon footprint and our reliance of coal, which seriously impacts the health of our nation.- Reduce our energy costs- Facilitate other temples' "green" efforts by welcoming questions, "advertising" in media.
Overview:Our finest universities and all national science academies throughout the world unanimously urge us to act to prevent the worst effects of climate change. By reducing our carbon footprint Temple Sinai has responded to this plea. All other forms of tikkun olam will be swamped by the consequences of doing nothing. As a result of climate change there will be a sharp increase in poverty, hunger, disease, and homelessness, but we can minimize this by strongly pivoting to low carbon fuels. Just as with civil rights, Judaism must step forward.
Preparation:Many low carbon improvements (lighting, etc) had already been underway in our congregation. After some exploration and research, a temple member was asked to fomally present the "Solar Sinai" concept to our President. Next, a meeting with the Temple Sinai Board was scheduled: the idea was presented to the Board. Of course, a large investment such as this was met with considerable skepticism, but also encouragement. A "Solar Sinai" committee was formed of four other members to collect proposals, evaluate their merits, discuss doubts and objections raised by the Board, analyze the financial impacts, plan presentations to future Board meetings, etc. Prior to officially launching the program a major fundraiser was initiated, and more than half the congregation contributed to fully fund the down payment.
Project Implementation:We celebrated at an event with music, dignitaries, speeches, and a play put on by the little ones. The 30KW Photovoltaic System was installed over a period of a few weeks. A major effort to "spread the word" in the media was made by many members of TSG. Outreach efforts to other Synagogues is still underway. We hope to be a resource for low carbon solutions in the Jewish Community - and in others, as well. Further improvements, such as a new A/C continue to shrink our usage of electricity. A Xeriscape garden is installed by members to lower water (and energy ) use.
Results:We reduced both our use of electricity and reliance on polluting coal by installing improved lighting, renovating our A/C and installing a 30KW solar panel (photovoltaic) system. In the process our electricity bills were reduced from $34,000/year a few years ago to about $14,000/year. In six years (when the lease expires) the bill will drop to about $5000/year. By using less coal energy we have also avoided the release of many tons of CO2, as well as preventing the release of mercury, particulates, sulfur and nitrogen oxides from coal plants. We are in the process of exploring purchase of a second system that would, in a few years, almost eliminate our production of coal pollution and completely zero out our bills. We, at Temple Sinai, are members of California Interfaith Power and Light. This is an organization that supports all faith groups striving to be "good stewards" of our environment. Recently, out of about 560 member faith groups, we were awarded the "Green Building Oscar" for our work. We have reached out to the greater community by telling our story and encouraging others to benefit as we have.
We are currently in negotiation for a second system of 30KW, which will double the benefits. Rabbi Schecter's teaching on Judaism and the environment and Eddie Polon's efforts resulted in the complete funding of the down payment. Our membership showed great enthusiasm for the project. For example, one young man had saved his Tsedakah money for several years and went "all in" for Solar Sinai. Our story has been published in at least half a dozen news articles; some are attached. Awards: We were awarded an "Energy Oscar" for Green Building from California Interfaith Power and Light, an interfaith group of 15,000 members nationwide. Rabbi Schechter tells of a Rabbi who once said, "good deeds are, in fact, prayers". It is as if our building is praying every day, through the generosity of our members and the open mindedness of our temple administration.

|Freshmen duo win three-set decisions on Senior Day
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Charlotte women's tennis earned a pair of three-set victories in singles action, both by freshmen, but unfortunately for the 49ers they came after East Carolina had already clinched a 4-3 win Saturday afternoon. The Conference USA meeting marked the regular-season finale for both programs.
"I'm proud of the determination and heart with which we played today," head coach Michaela Gorman said. "I thought we worked hard all afternoon and had our opportunities in some matches. I'm proud of the effort of this group heading into next week's conference tournament and feel like we're definitely heading in the right direction."
Rookie Victoria Pahlett earned her second-straight triumph, holding off the Pirates' top player, Melis Tanik, in a 6-4, 4-6, 10-4 battle at the No. 1 position. Tanik entered the contest with an East Carolina (12-10, 1-1 C-USA) best 21 singles wins in 2013-14.
Pahlett's classmate, Macy Vonderschmidt, who was the March 25 Conference USA Athlete of the Week, did not let an opening-set loss derail her from posting a come-from-behind 2-6, 7-5, 10-8 victory against Maria Storozheva at the No. 3 slot. The win was Vonderschmidt's 10th of the campaign, extending her team-high spring total.
Junior Lisa Grosselius also reached 10 triumphs during the year, becoming the third overall Charlotte (7-12, 0-3 C-USA) player to accomplish the feat, with her 6-2, 6-2 handling of Michelle Castro at the No. 2 spot.
The Pirates opened the day by winning the No. 1 and 3 doubles matches to earn the early point, which would prove to be the difference between the two in-state foes.
With the regular season now complete, the Niners will await word from Conference USA on their first opponent in the league tournament, which begins Wednesday at Old Dominion in Norfolk, Va. All 16 conference schools will participate in the single-elimination bracket, with the top-four seeds receiving a double bye and seeds five through eight earning an opening-round bye.

"When did you first learn about the swine flu outbreak?""Have you searched the Internet for additional information on the swine flu outbreak?""If a vaccine for swine flu became available, would you want to be vaccinated?"These questions were posted (as an experiment) on Facebook on Saturday, April 25, just a day or two after concerns of H1N1, or "swine" flu, swept across the country.
If Swine Flu had proved to be more serious than it turned out to be, many people would have turned to the internet for information and advice. The researcher who posted these questions, mathematical biologist Lauren Ancel Meyers, says, "I didn't want to miss the opportunity to gather data on early reactions to the outbreak." She is trying to figure out how people perceive health risks, so the government can learn how changes in decision-making influence patterns of disease spread.
She thinks people will want to know things like: What if the bug is really infectious and deadly? What if it's resistant to the drugs we have? What if we have a vaccine that's effective, but there's only enough of it to immunize part of the population? What if we close international airports? What if people don't adhere to the recommended interventions?
Meyers says, "The way it spreads may also reflect the way that information about swine flu spreads through blogs, Facebook or other social networking sites. Part of what we're trying to understand is what sources of information influence decisions and how quickly they impact behavior."
We modestly hope that some of the things we write about and talk about (which nobody else does!) will influence public and government behavior (and we have evidence that this does happen). Be part of this important dialogue: come to our Dreamland Festival in June and subscribe today! There's never been a more important time to be on the right side of these important issues.

Moultrie cameras have exceeded our expectations and worth every penny!! These cameras are the best we have every used and our favorite was the M80XT, that is until the M880i came out with a super fast trigger.
After Connor convinced his father to go fishing instead of golfing, they made their way to a pond right in the city limits of Columbia. With no bites and frustrated we tried one more spot and to our surprise it only took 20 minutes to land a good mess of healthy catfish.
A Windy Subject That Is Easy To Miss
Moultrie Cameras
Most archers don't factor in the wind when hunting here in the Midwest and why should we...most shots are from treestands in the woods with little or no crosswinds. But when hunting antelope of muleys in the high deserts of New Mexico you had better adjust for wind because your shots might be up to 90 yards away.

The tiny town of Parshall, N.D., is isolated, windswept and frigid, like most northwestern American communities. With a population of 1,073, Parshall holds the record for the coldest temperature ever recorded in North Dakota (–60 degrees Fahrenheit). The economy of this small community, like so many other similar towns across America, has been in steep decline for many years. As manufacturing and farming jobs have moved overseas, town residents have sought greener pastures and a better life. But recently, something amazing happened:
Below the wheat fields and the grocery store and the high school football field, surveyors discovered oil — barrels upon barrels of thick, unrefined, highly sought-after crude oil. Planet Green' s original docu-series BOOMTOWN, airing Saturdays at 10 PM (ET) beginning on January 29, tells the tale of this struggling American town in the midst of a profound reversal of fortune.
BOOMTOWN is an unconventional case study of how the domestic oil and gas industries are exploring every option here on U.S. soil — but at what cost? In an illustration of what' s happening in small towns across America, practically overnight, many of Parshall' s residents and landowners are transformed from ordinary folks into millionaires. But not everyone gets rich quick, and not everyone thinks this new development will end well for the residents of the town.
BOOMTOWN is a five-episode series produced for Planet Green.

Tue, Mar 23, 2010
Virgin Galactic announced Monday that its commercial manned
spaceship, VSS Enterprise, has successfully completed its first
"captive carry" test flight, taking off at 0705 PST from Mojave Air
and Spaceport in California.
The spaceship was unveiled to the public for the first time on
December 7th 2009 and named by Governors Schwarzenegger and
Richardson. VSS Enterprise remained attached to its unique
WhiteKnightTwo carrier aircraft, VMS Eve, for the duration of the 2
hours 54 minutes flight, achieving an altitude of 45,000ft.
Both vehicles are being developed for Sir Richard Branson's Virgin
Galactic, by Mojave based Scaled Composites. Founded by Burt Rutan,
Scaled developed SpaceShipOne which in 2004 claimed the $10m Ansari
X prize as the world's first privately developed manned spacecraft.
Virgin Galactic's new vehicles share much of the same basic design
but are being built to carry six fare paying passengers on
sub-orbital space flights, allowing an out-of-the-seat zero gravity
experience and offering astounding views of the planet from the
black sky of space.
Virgin Galactic has already taken around $45m in deposits for
spaceflight reservations from over 330 people wanting to experience
space for themselves.
The first flight of VMS Enterprise is another major milestone in
an exhaustive flight testing program, which started with the
inaugural flight of VMS Eve in 2008 and is at the heart of Virgin
Galactic's commitment to safety. "This is a momentous day for the
Scaled and Virgin Teams," said Burt Rutan. "The captive carry
flight signifies the start of what we believe will be extremely
exciting and successful spaceship flight test program."
"Seeing the finished spaceship in December was a major day for
us but watching VSS Enterprise fly for the first time really brings
home what beautiful, ground-breaking vehicles Burt and his team
have developed for us," added Virgin Galactic founder Sir Richard
Branson. "It comes as no surprise that the flight went so well; the
Scaled team is uniquely qualified to bring this important and
incredible dream to reality. Today was another major step along
that road and a testament to US engineering and innovation."
The VSS Enterprise test flight program will continue though 2010
and 2011, progressing from captive carry to independent glide and
then powered flight, prior to the start of commercial

Rod Ryan Show
I grew up in Daytona Beach, Florida, where parading around in a bikini was a year-round sport. Like everyone else, I did it -- but I never felt fabulous (and my sarong was never far behind). In fact, the only time I was able to strut around in two tiny scraps of Lycra confidently was, perhaps ironically, when I was pregnant. Talk about freedom! There was no need to suck in my gut, and I had temporarily massive porn-star hooters that made it near impossible to look anywhere else. Sure, my rear view wasn't so hot, but for once I didn't care.
Too bad I didn't know about this pageant back then. In Texas, gestating mamas-to-be are encouraged to don their teeniest bikinis and vie for the coveted Rod Ryan Pre-Labor Day Pregnant Bikini Contest crown. (There's a diaper changing and throwing contest before the bikini round -- no joke!) I say it's about time we celebrated our baby-making bods and all of their fertile, fabulous glory. Check out our favorite moments from the pageant action.

Great Service and StaffSubmitted by: Bill in 19/01/07

- From: Colombia
- Traveller type: Pleasure Seeker
The Hotel Cañaveral Tenerife in Santa Marta is conveniently located a block away from the best beach in the famous Rodadero area, and also a short walk away from the less crowded beaches and coves. Its restaurant has a good variety of dishes, and the service is very personalized and good. The rooms facing the ocean have spectacular views of the Caribbean sea, balconies, and are quite comfortable. I suggest that the best time to visit this hotel is during the off season, as during the peak seasons it is quite full.

Ready for Spa-Francorchamps. The first real stage of what promises to be a long, challenging season got off to an exciting start at Vallelunga. The pre-season tests saw the Trofeo's new aerodynamic package make its debut and almost all the drivers gave them the thumbs-up. The modifications to the car have tweaked the way it handles in medium-fast stretches and boosted its performance.
One of the drivers who adapted quickest was Mauro Calamia, a title pretender. The Swiss Team driver was fastest on the circuit, even though not all the drivers went flat out. If he maintains this form, Kuppens could have a true rival to contend with at the famous Ardennes circuit. This is where the Trofeos will be battling it out come the next weekend.
Year built: 1920
Circuit Length: 7,395 m
Direction: clockwise
Curves: 20
Total capacity: 70,000
Spa is one of the most attractive world championship circuits, one of those "old-time" tracks that have never undergone any radical modifications. Set in the green hills of the Ardennes the track retains more or less all the technical features of the original circuit (which was about 14 kilometres long). That means it is very exciting from start to finish and its highly technical layout is capable of really highlighting the difference between a proficient driver and a champion. Racing enthusiasts cannot but be thrilled as cars take the Eau Rouge or Radillon and feel they are in there with the drivers as they tackle this terrifying dip flat out.
Obviously, it is not only Eau Rouge-Radillon which allows drivers to set fast times. The central part of the Spa circuit is intriguing too and characterised by a sequence of fast, swooping corners and short straights. This second stretch is probably the most technical, since it demands special driving skills to avoid spinning (and running fairly low levels of downforce can complicate matters).
After the mixed stretch coming out of the treacherous Stavelot, we go back in history to the evocative straight in the Ardennes woods - Blanchimont - leading to the Bus Stop, the chicane where drivers always come to within a hair's breadth of the wall as they accelerate out. Spa-Francorchamps is also famous for its unsettled weather conditions, which often present drivers with wet and dry sections over a track almost seven kilometres long!

It's hard to tell whether highwire-walker Ryan Robinson had permission to tiptoe across a rope, surreptitiously strung between two outcroppings of rocks, somewhere near Lands End, on the northwestern edge of San Francisco.
