Michelle Alexander's acclaimed book calls attention to the mass incarceration of African-Americans in the United States.
Friday, November 22, 2013
"The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness" challenges the conventional wisdom that our nation has "triumphed over race" with the election of Barack Obama, and argues that the sudden and dramatic mass incarceration of African-American men, primarily through the War on Drugs, has created a new racial under-caste.
Alexander, whose book is a New York Times Best-Seller and won the NAACP Image Award, is a civil rights lawyer, advocate, and professor at The Ohio State University. She was previously an associate professor of law at Stanford Law School, where she directed the Civil Rights Clinics.
"Michelle Alexander reminds us of the complex ways that we are implicated in the suffering of others and she illustrates this through haunting statistics, narratives, and social realities of which many of us are unaware. Lesley University is honored to host this luminary and prophetic voice.," says Dr. David Goodman, an assistant professor of psychology, who is director of the Psychology and the Other Institute at Lesley University.
The event is free and open to the public and will be held on Friday, Dec. 6 at 7 p.m. in Lesley's Washburn Auditorium, 10 Phillips Place, Cambridge. For more information, click here.
Michelle Alexander previously worked as a civil rights lawyer and advocate in both the private and non-profit sector. For several years, she served as the Director of the Racial Justice Project for the ACLU of Northern California, where she helped to lead a national campaign against racial profiling by law enforcement. While an associate at Saperstein, Goldstein, Demchak & Baller, she specialized in plaintiff-side class action lawsuits alleging race and gender discrimination. She is a graduate of Stanford Law School and Vanderbilt University.
Lesley's Psychology and the Other Institute, which facilitates interdisciplinary conversation between psychology, theology/religious studies and philosophy, presents Michelle Alexander along with the Lesley University Office of the Provost, Lesley's Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences, and the Lesley Diversity Council. The Emmanuel Levinas Lecture Series takes place two to three times per year and features a scholar/activist who represents a pressing need in the world and speaks to an issue of significant ethical importance. Levinas was a Lithuanian philosopher who was concerned about the failing moral systems in Western society. This lecture series is intended to highlight important contemporary issues that pertain to human responsibility and ethics.

Rough, rough day yesterday. Went 2-5 overall, but it was how I lost that really frustrated me. Alabama blows a 10 point lead in the final 3 minutes of regulation? With 24 seconds to go in the first OT, Texas A&M holds a 4 point lead. The Tennessee player who receives the ball goes coast to coast for an unconstested layup??? An uncontested layup in that situation? Horrible. Then, I suffer the backdoor beat in the Florida-Arkansas game. Other losers were TCU and Eastern Kentucky. Winners were Georgetown and Oklahoma. Sorry for the rant.

- Pros: Fits Well, Effective, Authentic Looking
- Cons: Tips Catch On Hair
- Best Uses: Costume Party, Just For Fun, Trick Or Treating
- Bottom Line: Love the design of the wings, because they don't look like every other pair of fairy wings you see around. They fit well enough, yet, if one was a larger person, the straps might be too short/tight. The only slightly annoying thing about this accessory is that the tips of the wings catch on the hair due to their shape and they can't be bent backwards further away from the body to fix the issue. That aside, I still think it's a great costume piece.

Imagine making a good amount of money without ever leaving your home! If you have clock for sale then you might want to consider selling them online. Initially you might start by selling through a third party and if you like it, then open your own online clock store. For some great tips on selling clock over the internet check this out.
Make sure to always check your website after you make modifications. Your links should always be short and work, and the navigation needs to be smooth so customers can find their clock quickly.
Many customers are naturally visual and if they can't see a clock product image they won't feel the need to buy it. Words can only go so far so make sure to include pictures to entice your customer to buy.
For technical help you do not have to pay an arm and a leg to professionals. Instead take advantage of free support on the internet or your close circle of friends.
Be certain that you have the time to put into your business. If you are beginning by selling your item as a side job, understand that you will need to dedicate a major amount of time to the project. You may even want to schedule a particular number of hours each day to spend on your business and mark that time down on your calendar.
A website that was created professionally and is maintained in the same manner is a must when it comes to having a business that is a success. You want to have a blog that your store online is tied to so that an informal connection is added to the professionalism. You can be flexible and hold conversations that are informal. You will be projecting more than a business enterprise. You will be giving them a person behind it.
Cash is always the preferred method of payment. That's because when receiving cash you don't need to incur operating costs from the banks and payment service providers like you are charged when accepting credit card payments.
Grab attention for your website by offering special drawings and raffles. Offer high-priced clock for the price of an inexpensive raffle ticket. This will get customers looking at your clock product and will excite them about your store. It will also increase traffic to your website.
If you have a physical store front sometimes its preferable shoppers come in versus place orders online to save on shipping and handling. Plus a personal shopping experience can go a long way and you have greater opportunity to really sell your clock to them.
For a seamless checkout service, it is important to educate your customers on how to buy clock from your site. Once customers have placed in order you should keep them up to date with the status of their order as well as shipping tracking numbers so they know where their clock is at all times.
Simply visit any large search engine and search for grandfather clock if you need more helpful ideas about hand-made clock.

In the past four weeks I have attended two cannabis factories, been to one house where harvested cannabis was being dried and I've witnessed the pile of seized hydroponic equipment outside the property store being added to on a daily basis.
It's estimated that us police types are raiding three cannabis factories every day across Britain, they're a regular discovery around the West Midlands and whilst we're doing our best to disrupt the trade, the factories that our Cannabis Disposal Teams rip apart only represent the tip of the iceberg.
It's common to find cannabis farms set up in residential houses and factory units – one of the largest growing operations of the past few years was uncovered inside an industrial building just behind Bloxwich Police Station – and criminals are more than happy to tap straight into the mains to power the heat lamps required to make their crop grow.
As it is the case that the cannabis farmers often use residential locations to grow their crops, having members of the public keeping an eye open for suspicious activity and passing information onto ourselves is crucial.
What should you be looking for though? How can you spot a cannabis farm?
Assuming you've got your deerstalker on and magnifying glass in hand, here are some of the clues that hint a cannabis factory may be nearby:
- Strange smell – One of the most obvious signs, cannabis is referred to as 'skunk' for a reason. Its sweet smell is very hard to disguise and drifts through thin walls and open windows.
- Covered windows – In many of the factories that I've visited, the windows have been papered over or the curtains kept closed. It helps keep in the heat and light and is a strong sign that there's something inside somebody's trying to hide.
- Pots and soil etc being brought in – Much of the equipment needed to grow cannabis is bulky. Lamps, ventilation tubing, pots and soil being brought in at funny hours suggest your neighbour isn't growing marrows.
- Odd comings and going – One job I went to started off with a report that a minibus full of people had been seen arriving at an empty house at five in the morning, we arrived and found they were illegal immigrants about to set up a cannabis farm.
- Neighbours that don't quite fit in – DrugScope suggest that three quarters of cannabis farms are run by Vietnamese gangs although it's certainly not exclusive to one ethnicity, anyone can be tempted to try and grow cannabis.
- Shy occupants – If neighbours have set up a growing operation, they'll be keen to attract as little attention as possible. Suspicions should be raised if you think a house is occupied but you never see the people living there.
- Lots of banging and noise – As you can see from the photo, cannabis farms require some extensive 'renovations' which won't be quiet work. You may also be able to hear air circulation fans running constantly.
- Heat coming through walls – Cannabis plants don't get on particularly well with the British weather so heat lamps are required, you may well be able to feel the surplus heat escaping through adjoining walls. It's also quite noticeable to the thermal imaging camera on our helicopter.
- Electrical problems or a rise in your bill – Heat lamps are electricity thirsty and rather than pay for the electricity, cannabis farmers usually (and very dangerously) hook directly up to the mains. In one factory they'd dug under the road and linked straight to the street's main supply, the electricity company had to dig the street up to fix the damage.
- Odd things left in the rubbish – Look out for bags of cuttings, empty cannisters of plant growth formula and the like.
- Strange pattern of occupancy – Cannabis farmers usually rent their properties, if you notice a house that's been unoccupied for a while being taken over by someone who doesn't move in any furniture or appear to be running a business, it may be that they're stripping the property out for a farm.
- Rise in humidity – Just as cannabis plants like heat, they also need a high level of humidity to grow. This may well be noticeable, as might the sound of the humidifiers.
- Vents visible – Look out for silver coloured piping hanging out of windows, hose pipes leading indoors too are a give away.
- Lights left on – If the windows haven't been completely covered, you may be able to see bright yellow light escaping.
If you've noticed any of the above, it's a good possibility that someone might be operating a cannabis factory nearby.
Please give us a call on 101 and let us know as we're always happy to come around with the 'big red key' and have our burly Cannabis Disposal Team tear apart the hydroponic equipment with their teeth.
Alternatively you can supply the information anonymously via Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111 or visiting their website.
The most recent cannabis find I'd attended came to our attention as a result of an anonymous call from a resident – it's hard to say just how valuable these sort of calls are to us so if any of the above indicators have stood out to you, please don't delay in letting us know.
Help us nip the problem in the bud!

Having just had a quick peek at the FBI's 'Ten Most Wanted' list, I notice that they've got the catchy headline 'be part of the solution'.
As we've just published our own version of the Most Wanted list, I'm writing to encourage you to be part of the solution yourself and help us catch some of the West Midlands' most sought after criminals.
Drawing on the success of Operation View during which we encouraged – and are still encouraging – you to take a look at CCTV captured during the August Riots, we now have a dedicated section of our website on which we're publishing some rather unpleasant mugshots of persons who we're hoping you'll help us locate.
Doing so is easy enough – you just need to take a note of the offender's reference number and then either give us a call on 101 or alternatively, approach Crimestoppers anonymously with your tip off.
The people we've added to the gallery are wanted for some of the worst offences it's possible to commit – there are suspected murderers, robbers, burglars and more. They've all either been convicted or are named as responsible for a range of serious offences and what's more, whilst their not residing in one of our cells are more likely than not out causing harm in your area.
Because this is the case we need your help to locate and arrest these villains as soon as possible. You might recognise them from the pub, or through a friend of a friend or maybe you've seen them hanging around on your estate – whatever your connection and however strong, it's important that you get in touch to help us prevent further offences.
As you'll notice from the gallery, there are already suspects who have big red 'arrested' stamps across their silhouettes – this will be because members of the public have got in touch and we'd love to see a few more stamps appearing on the other people in the gallery – it'll be owing to your help that this will happen.

Putting all his body weight behind what is already a fairly hefty chunk of steel, the officer swings the ram into the door. The lock claws at the door frame as it gives way in a shower of splinters. The ram is then cast aside and officers begin to flood the premises.
The first thing that officers will be looking to do once inside is to locate all of the persons within and ensure that they have no opportunity to destroy evidence. Each room will be searched for occupants, including cupboards and under beds, and all those found will be gathered and secured in one area.
Probably still a little shell shocked from their unexpected wake up call the officer in charge of the warrant will explain to the occupants why the warrant is being executed and give them a chance to examine a copy of the warrant itself. A search book will then be started listing where the warrant is taking place, who is present and what, if anything, has been recovered.
With the occupants of the premises sat in one place the search can begin to earnest. Each room will be thoroughly and methodically sifted through with anything that may be linked to an offence likely to be seized as evidence. The warrant specifies what we are able to search for and are searching techniques need to be proportionate to what we're looking for. A warrant authorising us to search for a stolen 52″ flat screen television, as an example, would mean that we couldn't search kitchen draws as it's rather unlikely that we'd find the television inside.
When we find something of interest that we're going to seize we make a note of where it was found, along with the time, and enter this information into the search book.
Having finished our search we'll then transport any arrested suspects back to the police station taking with us our seized property. The prisoners will be booked on in the cells whilst other officers will begin the process of booking their recovered evidence into the property store and writing their production statements. This task finished we can then evaluate any useful intelligence that we've gained from the raid and begin dealing with the prisoners themselves.
Drugs warrants are a great way for us to tackle the wider issues caused by drug abuse and provide a visible sign to the public that we are taking action to clamp down on the dealers. In addition they have a habit of making other criminals in the area quite edgy about continuing their dodgy operations. Will I be next they begin to wonder? Should they persist to flout the law, the answer is a very loud yes.

The enforcer rips the door from its hinges at the first attempt. "Police! Police! Stay where you are!" yell the officers who pile into the address immediately afterwards, flooding each room and securing exit points. A handful of rather shocked occupants are led through into the living room, their hands secured to the front with cuffs. They are sat down and after a brief pregnant pause an officer comes in holding a large quantity of cash, scales and a sizable bag of white powder to boot. Another successful drugs raid then.
What goes into a police drugs raid then? In this, the first of a two part special on the subject, I look at what's involved in getting us to the front door of a suspected drug dealer.
A drugs warrant, as with any other form of warrant, starts off with good intelligence. Neighbourhood officers have a good idea of who's likely to be causing problems on their beat and are supported by members of the public who'd rather not have a drug dealer lurking around at the corner of their street. Information flows in from a variety of sources including Crimestoppers and gives us a fantastic idea of who might require a visit from the battering ram.
Having collected, collated and analysed information on a suspect, we then sit down and start work on a plan for the operation. This takes into account what resources there are available, what issues we might be likely to encounter at an address and if there are any risks to our safety that we might need to prepare for. Are there, for example, dogs at the premises that we might need help with? Are there children present? What do our suspect's criminal records tell us about how they might react?
Once it has been put together, we'll then get our plan risk assessed by a trained member of staff who will decide whether we are going to be able to execute the warrant without putting anybody's welfare at undue risk. Warrants can be dangerous operations by their very nature but by evaluating them beforehand we try and do the best we can to ensure that every officer entering an address has roughly the same proportion of limbs when they emerge again.
With the risk assessor's stamp of approval, we're then in a position to approach a magistrate to ask him or her to endorse our warrant thereby giving us the legal power to enter an address. To do this we have to visit the court, swear an oath, and are then asked questions about how we plan to carry out the operation. If the magistrate is happy with the grounds for executing the warrant he or she will sign it. We then have a period of one month to go and put the door in.
It's at this point that we have to decide when it is best to go and execute our warrant. This will depend on our resources, when it is most likely that our targets will be in and when we are likely to have the best chance of catching them with controlled substances.
Once a date and time has been picked, we'll then gather together our kit and sit for a briefing during which the plan for the warrant is laid out in detail. Every officer's role in the operation will be clearly explained so that as they head out to the address everyone is clear who is searching where, who they're expecting to find at the address and what they're looking for.
Forcing entry to a premises is often preferred to simply knocking as it presents less opportunity for those inside to quickly destroy evidence. The shock of hearing the front door tumbling into the hallway in splinters is usually enough to stun even the quickest thinking criminal.
Briefing complete a small convoy of police vehicles emerges from the station car park and snakes its way to the target address. With people positioned to the rear, method of entry trained officers run up to the front door and draw back the ram ready to strike.

The above is a short video with some words from our head honcho, Chris Sims, about the ongoing efforts that we're making to sweep up outstanding offenders from the August riots.
We've already made a large number of arrests and put many guilty persons before the courts and then behind bars. Images of those persons involved but not yet located are sitting on the Operation View website and you're able to take a gander at them and then give us a call if you recognise anyone.
As the Chief said, much of the success we've experienced so far has come about through help from the public and your input is vital to catching the few not yet collared by our long, long arms.
Anyone with any information about those involved in the disorder should call West Midlands Police on 0345 113 5000 or the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

International Programs
In order to improve the context for bird conservation, IAP addresses major threats at specific sites and at the flyway level. Birds and biological diversity in general face major threats from rampant deforestation; other habitat loss and degradation; predation and hunting; environmental toxins; and manmade barriers such as cities, hardened shorelines and rivers, and transmission lines, wind power, and other energy infrastructure. In addition, the increasingly apparent effects of climate change on habitats require us to look at the resilience of the sites where we work. To address these issues, Audubon carries out high-level strategic actions and develops powerful alliances to address specific threats by improving policies, encouraging best practices, and building strong constituencies.
Audubon's IAP team currently focuses on 30 IBAs within 7 priority conservation areas: the Bahamas, Belize, Chile, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, and the Southern Cone Grasslands.

STL's best-in-show are hosting a night to remember. We'll be there - will you?
St. Louis-based fashion model management firm Mother Model Management has announced that, in collaboration with Next Model Management, Synergy Productions, and Alive Magazine, they will present an extraordinary fashion show and homecoming party, "Tribute", on Saturday, November 17th in St. Louis, Missouri from 7:00pm to 11:00pm. The event will mark the debut of Wonderland at the MX, a limited-engagement pop-up event space at 618 Washington Avenue, Suite 202.
"Our models have walked the runways of Dior, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton and they are coming home to celebrate their Midwest roots,"says owner Mary Clarke.
The evening will include a gallery of Mother Model discoveries, a vintage fashion show featuring Mother's most successful models, and homecoming party to celebrate a decade of homespun success in St. Louis by Jeff and Mary Clarke.
Co-Producer Kelly Hummert Dhawan notes: "Jeff and Mary Clarke have, on their own terms, been putting St. Louis on the map in the world of high-fashion for over a decade. They foster their models' developments in such a compassionate, loving manner - a testament to their commitment to succeed in the fashion business at the highest level, but leading with their hearts. Their models have had a very successful season, walking in New York, Milan, and Paris. We are thrilled to create an opportunity for all of that spirit and energy to culminate on a runway back home in St. Louis. This show will celebrate the soul of Mother Model Management: Gorgeous and jaw-dropping high-fashion design and aesthetic, but with sweet, Midwestern attitude."
Faith Kates and Joel Wilkenfeld from Next Models shared that "Next Models have proudly worked with Jeff and Mary for many years and we are delighted to be supporting this amazing event.

Indeed, winter conditions back with a vengeance although here in the West of Scotland there's just been smattering of snow but it is icy cold: I feel sorry for the wildlife having to cope with and forage in such conditions again.
Oh! ..... and a fine shot of this Fieldfare.
I've been warmer on the top of a mountain summit than the streets of NE London today! This guy doesn't look that worried by the weather though
Oh dear, that looks cold. Not Fair to the fields
Fantastic shot, great light.
Well they do say every cloud has a silver lining! A tremendous portrait of this handsome bird, the detail and colours in the plumage have been perfectly recorded.

Uruguay, Atlantida region
Vinedo de los Vientos
Vinedo de los Vientos Tannat 2007 really showing well
Through our experiences with the grape as it is being produced in Uruguay, Uruguay Tannat may have the closest affiliation to an Old World style than any other wines being produced in the New World.
Fruit is not a primary note but a part of the greater whole, even secondary, but the wines do have fruit and plenty of it. It's just not the gushing juicy upfront style.
Here the visuals are very dark and light capturing, with a purple edge to the rim. The nose is very unique with an assemblage of intriguing nuances. The nose offers up notes of cocoa powder, a hint of vanilla, some earth and a faint licorice tone and dry spices sitting over dark fruit characters aromatically. The palate is full and round, supple and dry, offering up dark black berry fruit flavors with a hint of some cocoa powder surfacing up on the finish. The tannins are firm, but polished and showing harmony and balance with the fruit. With several years of bottle age this is really showing well and should drink beautifully over the next 3-4 years.

Mixed media artist Joyce J. Scott spent about two hours Monday afternoon sitting in the center of one of the new galleries of Mesa Contemporary Arts.
Carts held her her brightly colored beadwork and blown glass sculptures. Her stark framed prints sat wrapped in blocks of plastic foam. She looked around trying to visualize where her pieces should be placed on pedestals or hung.
Scott is one of six artists whose works make up the debut exhibitions at the museum, the first component of the $94.5 million Mesa Arts Center that opens on Friday.
Her work will be shown in the Ruth Tan Lim Project room, between the south gallery that houses sculptor Michael Shaughnessy's colossal hay sculptures, and the main gallery that will feature Montana artist Deborah Butterfield's "Horses" exhibit. In the north gallery, photographer and multimedia artist Gene Cooper and sculptor Byron Lahey, both faculty at Arizona State University's main campus, were installing the computers, projectors and wiring for a documentary project being done in collaboration with multimedia artist and ASU West professor Patricia Clark.
"What's the possibility of dramatically lighting this room? Maybe even using spotlighting, a warm light, on each piece?" Scott asked.
Patty Haberman, Mesa Contemporary Arts curator, and her assistants crafted a plan. Other pieces will hang from the ceiling, some with knives and scissors attached.
Anna Skibska, who arrived Monday afternoon, plotted where to hang her large webbed glass cocoons from the ceiling.
A glass sculptor, Skibska melts and stretches glass into thin ribbons, creating unusual shapes and forms.
Her first solo exhibition at the center, "Untitled," will explore the dichotomy between line and form and light and shadow, and to represent the new millennium.
"Looking technologically at my pieces, glass is made of sand, which is ground and then purified by fire," she said. "Then with that clear material, lit with fire, I created the pieces."
Butterfield is scheduled to arrive today to install her four horse sculptures. Elsewhere in the building Monday, staff members polished floors and painted.
Friday's opening is 6 to 9 p.m.; Saturday hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Mesa Arts Center is at 1 E. Main St.

Understanding the Circuit
By Tom Parker
Often times, the airspace immediately above an airport can get quite busy. To enable orderly flow of traffic around the airport and to prevent conflicts between aircraft, a standardized traffic pattern was established. Understanding this pattern will better help you determine the flow of traffic around an airport and enter that flow when the time comes.
The Elements of the Circuit
The circuit is a rectangular path around the active runway. It is composed of five elements: upwind, crosswind, downwind, base, and final as shown in the illustration below. The direction of the traffic flow is usually determined by the wind such that takeoff and landing are into the wind. Because the winds my not be straight down the runway, it may be necessary to adjust your aircraft heading such that you achieve a rectangular ground track. (ie: "Crabbing")
The size of the pattern is determined by the speed of the aircraft. The faster the aircraft, the larger the pattern should be. For smaller GA type aircraft, the downwind leg should be ½ to 1 mile from the runway. For larger aircraft, this pattern can be up to 5 miles. It should be sized so that you can make a safe, gradual descent through downwind, base, and final.
The upwind leg is that leg immediately following takeoff and is aligned with the runway heading. It starts from the point of takeoff and ends at the point where you make the turn to crosswind, and follows that line created by extending the runway centerline.
When flying in the pattern, you must determine the point at which to make the turn to crosswind. The guidelines are to make sure that it?s beyond the departure end of the runway and that the aircraft is within 300 feet of the traffic pattern altitude (TPA).
The crosswind leg is that leg following the upwind leg. It is perpendicular to the runway heading. It starts at the point you finish your turn from upwind, and ends at the point you begin your turn to downwind. Upon reaching the traffic pattern altitude and when in the correct position, the pilot should begin a level turn to downwind.
The downwind leg is that leg immediately following the crosswind leg. It starts at the point you finish your turn from crosswind and ends at the point you being your turn to the base leg. It is parallel to the runway and flows in the opposite direction of your intended landing. It is during this leg that you complete your landing checklist. In many cases, it?s also the time that you begin your descent. As a general rule of thumb, you begin your descent when abeam the arrival end of the runway. (ie: ?abeam the numbers?)
When flying downwind, you must determine when to begin your turn to base. General guidelines are to begin your turn when the line between your aircraft?s position and the arrival end of the runway form a 45? angle. If another aircraft is ahead of you in the pattern on final, you should extend the downwind leg until the line between your aircraft and the other aircraft form a 45? angle. You must also consider the wind conditions. You should ensure that you turn at a point such that you can achieve a safe, gradual descent to the touchdown point.
The base leg is that leg following the downwind leg. It begins at the point you complete your turn from downwind and ends at the point you begin your turn to final. It is perpendicular to the runway heading. Having started the descent on downwind, this is a descending leg.
Final Approach
Final Approach is the last leg of the pattern. It?s that leg immediately following the base leg. It begins at the point you complete your turn from base and ends at the point your aircraft touches down on the runway. It follows that line created by extending the runway centerline. This is the most critical leg as it?s where you much continually judge your height and airspeed to touchdown at the desired point on the runway.
Determining the Pattern Altitude (TPA)
The standard Traffic Pattern Altitude (TPA) for small GA aircraft is 1000? AGL. For turbojets, the standard is 1500? AGL. However, the TPA is set by the airport and can vary on occasion. To find out the actual altitude, you should reference an Airport / Facilities Directory (A/FD) which contains information pertinent to that airport or search online to find this information. It?s readily available in several locations.

Rain, rain, go away
A downpour in the UAE usually spells flooded offices, blocked roads and gridlocked traffic. Why?
February 28, 2010 3:00 by kippreport
Kipp has grumbled and whined extensively about the problem with rains in the UAE, and we are compelled to do so again.
The heavy rain on Saturday in the UAE has once again flooded the roads with water, caused traffic jams, and basically brought the whole place to a standstill. Undoubtedly the downpour on Saturday, which was accompanied by thunderstorms, was one of the heaviest the country has seen. But after all these years, the roads are still not equipped to deal with a single night's shower. There is no draining system to clear the waterlogged streets, and drivers struggle to avoid accidents.
One of our colleagues, who was stuck late in office on Saturday, couldn't venture out of the building because she would have been more than knee deep in water. Some of the cars on the street were actually floating, she said.
Kipp had also written previously about how a cab driver told us that the new range of taxis in Dubai will suffer heavy damages if exposed to waterlogged roads. And if his taxi developed problems, he would have to pay huge fines. Because of that, the driver refrained from taking passengers to certain areas.
Rains have become at least a yearly feature (if not more) in the country. So why is nothing done to improve the nation's infrastructure in relation to the weather? Is it too late to install a drain system on the roads? Or would the cost outweigh the benefits?

To make you happy, more storms and heavy rain are bound to hit the UAE late Monday and Tuesday (Mar 1-2, 2010).
Maybe this time you can take some measures and plan for it.
Emirates Meteorology
That the roads do not cope isn't new but the scale of the disruption seems to decrease a little, at least on the roads I use. What I fail to understand is how new buildings like Ibn Battuta or the Dubai Mall still suffer from flooding, forcing stores to shut and making car parks impassable. Add to this the fact established hotels see their lobbies still flood and the conclusion is clear: lack of planning and poor engineering make a mockery of the success story that is Dubai. We live on a movie set, designed to impress but not to stand the test of time. Dubai deserves better than that.
Eric, Dubai reaps what it sows. As you say it's designed to impress, little more.
It is really strange to note that Dubai and UAE are so incapable of handling the rains. Since last 3 years rain falls are increasing in frequency and strength of the government has not taken any noticeable steps to overcome damages due to rain.
Ironically, the municipality still use tankers and buckets to clear water-logging from streets.
When shiny new buildings are thrown up in world record time by overworked, underpaid labourers who just want to go home, is it any wonder they leak like sieves when it rains?
If you were paid Dh500 a month to work six-day weeks and had to spend your limited free time in a Sonapur labour camp, how much effort would you put in to quality construction?
I've been here (on and off) since late 1993, and inregards to drainage absolutely nothing has changed. Things are badly scoped and planned, and badly constructed. The only part of the process that's done relatively competently is the architechting, but even then more emphasis is placed on style rather than substance – or god forbid, usability.
For all this country has changed in the last 15 odd years, really it hasn't changed all that much.

When I started college, I worked at a lot of coffee shops, because I couldn't concentrate while living at home. So, over the years, I've become very use to working out of coffee shops and being productive there. Friends ask me why I work out of them all the time and they are usually confused. I especially love when people ask, "isn't it distracting with all the people and the noise?"
Distractions are all over the place
As if you don't check Facebook, Twitter, and the many other non-productive things that we all do on a daily basis. Isn't that a distraction? Or, how about the occasional, "I'm just going to see what's interesting on TV…", right, then 2 hours later you just watched "40 year old virgin" for the 18th time, or some random variation of that.
Of course there are tons of distractions from really interesting conversations to the crazy random people. There are times where I want to pull my hair out because of the fact sdthat there is some crazy dude yelling into his cell phone, or, the group of older ladies who get together for coffee once a year and are louder than hyenas. (sorry ladies, you are!)
Again though, distractions are all over the place, even in an office environment. Coffee shops tend to have the least in my opinion. And, when it does get too distracting, music drowns everything out.
Sparking creativity
Overall, I tend to find it a very creative environment. Especially when there are other people around you doing similar things. Whenever I see groups working on websites, or writers working on a script (sure, maybe only in LA), to someone just sitting there reading a book. I tend to feed off that energy and it definitely sparks the creative juices inside me.
Talking to others really ends up getting creativity going for me. Hearing what people are working on and doing. People trying to make it in their respective industries. It really brings out the entrepreneur in me and gets me excited about even the most mundane excel spreadsheets or data entry.
A change of scenery and environment
I have self diagnosed myself with ADHD and sometimes just changing environments is all I need to calm me down. That and usually a nice cup of chamomile tea will do the trick. While I'm at a coffee shop, all of the noise, people, bustling, and music tends to calm me down a bit as well. It keeps part of my mind going rather than wondering and not staying focused, as odd as that sounds. I've learned this about myself and have learned to find ways to make myself more productive.
You never know who you'll meet
I tend to always meet people while I'm at a coffee shop, I've met people that I've partnered with, industry contacts, and most recently, someone helping out with Eventify. Nina Kaufmann, one of our awesome writers I actually met at Paper or Plastik Cafe while working on the product.
Secondly, while at Paper or Plastik, I met the owner and talked to him about listing their venue on eventify. They were excited about the idea of getting more eyeballs to their studio, Mimoda Jazzo. In our next iteration of eventify, you will see the studio as a featured venue, all because of working at the coffee shop.
Coffee shops aren't for everyone, but they are for me
I know that not everyone is productive or likes to work at a coffee shop. Find places that can help your productivity and break up your day from being mundane and boring. I think all that matters is that when you get into a rut, you find a way to re-energize yourself, even if it means talking a walk, going out for lunch, etc. For me, coffee shops work, and they might for you too!
If you like working at coffee shops, tell me your experiences and whether it has helped you be more productive? You've met anyone interesting? Or, if you just plain hate it! If you haven't, give it a shot and let me know how you like it!

We were in your same conundrum. Had been looking at resales for a few months and the few that we really liked already had contracts when we called. So ended up buying direct with good incentives when we were on a Disney cruise at the end of April. Bought AKL (December UY) and while we've never stayed there before are happy with the choice (kids love animals). DH didn't want to go through the resale hassle at this point and neither of us wanted to wait until 2014 or 2015 for points for various reasons. While we most likely won't use the points for a cruise we like the option that we can; and also like the option of being able to go on the member cruises if we choose. As far as booking goes...I haven't had a real problem but that could be because we live in Florida and our trips are going to be short and we are fairly flexible with the dates (and I'll admit I'm a newbie, albeit, an obsessed one who's spent hours this past week on the DVC website looking at options). Will have our first trip next week - called MS last week when we closed and got a 1 BR Savannah view at AKL for 3 nights. I know they gave us some pixie dust on that one because initially she said they didn't have all 3 days but when she saw it was our first trip she put me on hold and came back with all 3 days!!! I've also booked 2 days in September in a 1BR at BLT and am researching a few days during Food and Wine. And, yes, there is availability during that time, not at Beach Club or BWV but BLT, SSR and AKV had 1 BR and studios. Bottom line is go with your gut feeling. Yes, resale is less expensive but if you can't find one that works for you then that is irrelevant. Also, it seems like resale prices have gone up in the past few weeks. Don't know if that's because of demand or if it's because Disney announced a price increase for June for direct. Good luck with whatever route you choose!

New York Knicks Rumors: Why Rasheed Wallace Won't Be Signed
Wallace is a four-time All-Star that has appeared in three NBA Finals. (Photo: Reuters)
The New York Knicks are considering signing former All-Star power forward Rasheed Wallace after he worked out at the Knicks' practice facility last week, according to reports, but don't count on it actually happening.
For one, Wallace, who is now 38 years old, hasn't played in the NBA since Game 7 of the NBA Finals during the 2009-10 season with the Boston Celtics. He was a bit old at that time and had been experiencing a bad back, so it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility that he could be prone to the same type of injury now at an even older age.
Follow Us :
Secondly, there would most likely be some rust in Wallace's offensive capabilities, particularly his shooting, after making an NBA comeback following a two-season hiatus. Consider that Wallace recorded a career-low nine points and four rebounds per game with a 28 percent three-point field goal percentage in his season with the Celtics. That was arguably the low point of his career. Could he really be all that better with the Knicks playing limited minutes?
Thirdly, although the Knicks are looking for a defensive-minded backup power forward/center, they already have viable defensive-minded backups in Kurt Thomas, who is 38, and Marcus Camby, who is 39. Do they really want to get any older with Wallace on board considering they also signed 39-year-old Jason Kidd and 35-year-old Pablo Prigioni to sure up the point guard position?
Wallace would seem to be a low-risk, high-reward option. He knows coach Mike Woodson from his days back in Detroit and can be signed for the veteran's minimum for a year. If he doesn't achieve the results the team wants, he can be cut after the year is over. At the same time, if the Knicks don't proceed past the first round of the playoffs, having signed Sheed would seem to have been all for naught.
The 6-foot-10 Wallace has averaged 14.6 points and 6.7 rebounds over 15 seasons.

Here is a pretty comprehensive overview of matters sexual on my humble blog. I do not intend to become a one trick pony, or a one note song on this matter, but it seems to me to be at the heart of so much that is misunderstood. The separation of sex from procreation, accomplished via contraception, is the root issue. It is almost as fundamental an error as the divorce between faith and reason. In fact, our contraceptive mindset flows from this divorce, which is precisely why the church's teaching on sexuality is considered archaic and retrograde. Stated perhaps far too simplistically, faith and reason split as a result of the Protestant schism, with Luther's turn to the subject on matters of faith, a rupture that was only widened by the Enlightenment.

Yankees rally, beat Seattle after Hernandez exits
|New York Yankees' Brett Gardner, right, is greeted at home plate by Chris Nelson (39) and Vernon Wells (12) after Gardner and Wilson scored on a double by Robinson Cano off Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Charlie Furbush in the seventh inning of a baseball game at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday, May 14, 2013, in New York. (AP Photo/Kathy Kmonicek)
NEW YORK (AP) — Robinson Cano hit a two-run double, Lyle Overbay delivered a tiebreaking sacrifice fly and the New York Yankees rallied after Felix Hernandez left following a couple of odd twists, beating the Seattle Mariners 4-3 Tuesday night.
Hernandez exited after six innings with a 3-1 lead, having outpitching CC Sabathia in the first matchup between the former Cy Young Award winners.
Hernandez, however, appeared to hurt himself in the sixth when he fielded a comebacker, pivoted and threw to second for a forceout. The Seattle ace twice kicked his left leg near the mound, trying to get loose, and seemed to say "ouch" a few times.
Manager Eric Wedge and a trainer visited Hernandez and left him in. Overbay followed with an RBI double that made it 3-1. There was no announcement on whether Hernandez had tweaked something, was injured, or was pulled after 97 pitches.
Hernandez allowed one earned run in another strong outing at Yankee Stadium, and leads the AL with a 1.53 ERA. Sabathia, who had won his last eight starts against Seattle, struck out 10 in 6 1-3 innings while giving up 10 hits.
Raul Ibanez hit a two-run homer for Seattle in his return to Yankee Stadium. New York star Curtis Granderson came off the disabled list and went 0 for 3 with a walk in his season debut.
Down 3-1, the Yankees rallied for three runs in the seventh to win for the seventh time in eight games.
Mariners reliever Yoervis Medina gave up a leadoff single to Chris Nelson, who went to second on a wild pitch. Charlie Furbush (0-2) entered with one out and walked Brett Gardner before Cano tied it with his double off the base of the wall in right-center.
Vernon Wells was intentionally walked, Granderson walked to load the bases and Overbay hit a sac fly to center that put the Yankees ahead.
Shawn Kelley (2-0) got two outs in the seventh. Mariano Rivera pitched the ninth to remain perfect in 16 save chances this season.
Granderson broke his right forearm in his first at-bat of spring training, and the public-address announcer said "Welcome back" when introducing the starting lineups.
Granderson was the first of the injured Yankees' stars to return to the team. Derek Jeter, Mark Teixeira and Alex Rodriguez still haven't played this year.
Ibanez got a nice ovation before the game from fans who remembered his clutch homers last October for the Yankees — when he connected this time, the crowd responded with a mix of boos and calls of "Ra-uuuul."
Hernandez was involved in a weird play in the fourth when he ran over to cover first base on Overbay's grounder to the right side. Hernandez was called for obstruction — and charged with an error — when Overbay ran into him near the bag as first baseman Kendrys Morales took the throw for an apparent out.
Seattle took a 1-0 lead in the third on Kyle Seager's double.
NOTES: The Mariners committed two errors in a game for the first time this season. C Kelly Shoppach made a wild throw to first, trying to get Nelson when he struck out and reached on a wild pitch in the third. ... DH Travis Hafner was out of the Yankees' lineup because of a sore right shoulder. New York manager Joe Girardi said Hafner would have an MRI and get a couple days off as a precaution.

Interview: Heiko Salzwedel, British CyclingSubscribe
Phil Ingham 26 March 2002
The following interview appears courtesy of www.britishcycling.org, British Cycling's official website.
THE SUCCESS of the track cycling team at the Sydney Olympics marked Britain's arrival among the world elite and was the first step towards the UK becoming the leading track cycling nation by 2012.
The man charged with overseeing the track element of British Cycling's World Class Performance Programme, which receives Lottery funding of £2million per year from UK Sport, is Heiko Salzwedel.
Appointed as National Track Manager last autumn, Salzwedel is perhaps best known as the man behind the Australian Institute of Sport's hugely successful road and mountain bike programmes during the nineties, which effectively put Australia on the cycling map. In 1999, following a move back to Germany, he managed the national team that won four Gold medals at the Track and Road World Championships.
