By Jueseppi B.
Ninth in th "One A Day" Black History Month series is……Mr. Charles F. Bolden Jr.
Charles Frank "Charlie" Bolden, Jr. (born August 19, 1946 in Columbia, South Carolina, United States) is the current Administrator of NASA, a retired United States Marine Corps major general, and former NASA astronaut.
A 1968 graduate of the United States Naval Academy, he became a Marine Aviator and test pilot. After his service as an astronaut, he became Deputy Commandant of Midshipmen at the Naval Academy. On May 23, 2009, President Barack Obama announced the nomination of Bolden as NASA Administrator and Lori Garver as Deputy NASA Administrator. Bolden was confirmed by the Senate on July 15, 2009. He is the first African American to head the agency on a permanent basis.
Bolden is also the virtual host of the Shuttle Launch Experience attraction at Kennedy Space Center and serves on the board of directors for the Military Child Education Coalition.
Bolden graduated from C. A. Johnson High School in Columbia, South Carolina in 1964, where his father was the head football coach. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical science from the United States Naval Academy in 1968, and a Master of Science in systems management from the University of Southern California in 1977. He is a member of Omega Psi Phi fraternity.
Bolden accepted a commission as a second lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps following graduation from the United States Naval Academy in 1968. He was president of his class. He underwent flight training at Pensacola, Florida, Meridian, Mississippi, and Kingsville, Texas, before being designated a naval aviator in May 1970. He flew more than 100 sorties into North and South Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia in the A-6A Intruder while assigned to VMA(AW)-533 at Royal Thai Air Base Nam Phong, Thailand, from June 1972 to June 1973.
Upon returning to the United States, Bolden began a two-year tour as a Marine Corps selection officer and recruiting officer in Los Angeles, California, followed by three years in various assignments at Marine Corps Air Station El Toro, California. In June 1979, he was graduated from the United States Naval Test Pilot School at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland and was assigned to the Naval Air Test Center's Systems Engineering and Strike Aircraft Test Directorates. While there, he served as an ordnance test pilot and flew numerous test projects in the A-6E, EA-6B, and A-7C/E airplanes.
He has logged more than 6,000 hours flying time.
Bolden was selected as an astronaut candidate by NASA in 1980. He was a member of the NASA Astronaut Corps until 1994 when he returned to active duty in the Marine Corps as the Deputy Commandant of Midshipmen at the Naval Academy, effective June 27, 1994. In July 1997, he was assigned as the Deputy Commanding General of I Marine Expeditionary Force. From February to June 1998, he served as Commanding General, I MEF (FWD) in support of Operation Desert Thunder in Kuwait. In July 1998, he was promoted to his final rank of Major General and assumed his duties as the Deputy Commander, United States Forces Japan. He then served as the Commanding General, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, serving from August 9, 2000 until August 2002. He retired from the military in August 2004.
Selected by NASA in May 1980, Bolden became an astronaut in August 1981. His technical assignments included: Astronaut Office Safety Officer; Technical Assistant to the Director of Flight Crew Operations; Special Assistant to the Director of the Johnson Space Center; Astronaut Office Liaison to the Safety, Reliability and Quality Assurance Directorates of the Marshall Space Flight Center and the Kennedy Space Center; Chief of the Safety Division at JSC; Lead Astronaut for Vehicle Test and Checkout at the Kennedy Space Center; and Assistant Deputy Administrator, NASA Headquarters. A veteran of four space flights, he has logged over 680 hours in space. Bolden served as pilot on STS-61C (January 12–18, 1986) and STS-31 (April 24–29, 1990), and was the mission commander on STS-45 (March 24, 1992 – April 2, 1992), and STS-60 (February 3–11, 1994).
Bolden was the first person to ride the Launch Complex 39 slidewire baskets which enable rapid escape from a Space Shuttle on the launch pad. The need for a human test was determined following a launch abort on STS-41-D where controllers were afraid to order the crew to use the untested escape system.
On STS-61-C, Bolden piloted Space Shuttle Columbia. During the six-day flight, crew members deployed the SATCOM KU satellite and conducted experiments in astrophysics and materials processing. STS-61-C launched from Kennedy Space Center on January 12, 1986. The mission was accomplished in 96 orbits of Earth, ending with a successful night landing at Edwards Air Force Baseon January 18, 1986.
Bolden piloted Space Shuttle Discovery during STS-31. Launched on April 24, 1990 from Kennedy Space Center, the crew spent the five-day mission, deploying the Hubble Space Telescope and conducting a variety of middeck experiments. They also used a variety of cameras, including both the IMAX in cabin and cargo bay cameras, for Earth observations from their record-setting altitude over 400 miles. Following 75 orbits of Earth in 121 hours, Discovery landed at Edwards Air Force Base on April 29, 1990.
On STS-45, Bolden commanded a crew of seven aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis, launched on March 24, 1992 from Kennedy Space Center. STS-45 was the first Spacelab mission dedicated to NASA's Mission to Planet Earth. During the nine-day mission, the crew operated the twelve experiments that constituted the ATLAS-1 (Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science) cargo. ATLAS-1 obtained a vast array of detailed measurements of atmospheric chemical and physical properties, which contribute significantly to improving our understanding of our climate and atmosphere. In addition, this was the first time an artificial beam of electrons was used to stimulate a man-made auroral discharge. Following 143 orbits of Earth, Atlantis landed at Kennedy Space Center on April 2, 1992.
Bolden commanded STS-60's crew of six aboard Discovery. This was the historic first joint-American/Russian Space Shuttle mission involving the participation of a Russian cosmonaut Sergei Krikalyov as a mission specialist crew member. The flight launched on February 3, 1994, from Kennedy Space Center, and carried the Space Habitation Module-2 (SPACEHAB), and the Wake Shield Facility. Additionally, the crew conducted a series of joint U.S./Russian science activities. The mission achieved 130 orbits of the Earth, ending with a landing on February 11, 1994, at the Kennedy Space Center.
In 2009, President Barack Obama appointed Bolden to be administrator of NASA.
In a NASA video, published April 28, 2010 titled "NASA's New Era of Innovation and Discovery", Bolden said: "We're gonna turn science fiction into science fact."
In a June 2010 interview with Arab news outlet Al Jazeera, Bolden said that among his goals for outreach were to help re-inspire children to want to get into science and math, to expand NASA's international relationships, and to reach out to and engage the Muslim world, making better known its historic contribution to science.
Bolden said his agency's long-term ambition is landing astronauts on Mars. However, he has cited spending-cuts as a concern for major NASA projects.

The RPM Challenge
2014 Jukebox Uploader
The Jukebox Uploader is active so you can put your 2014 songs in place!
Help us load the 2014 Jukebox with your music, so everyone can check it out. It's easy and fun:
1. Log in to http://RPMChallenge.com, as usual
2. Go to http://rpmchallenge.com/cgi-bin/jukebox.cgi
3. Edit your band info, if necessary, then click on "2014 Album"
4. Change the album name, upload your tracks, and voila! You're in the Jukebox!
Now, of course there's a bit of small print (there's always small print....)
- The jukebox is happiest when you feed it well-tagged files, so spend a little time getting you ID3 tags in order for your files so that the uploader can read all that information for you. We recommend filling in the artist and title fields at the very least, but feel free to go nuts!
Yes, you CAN post your music elsewhere, but please consider taking a moment to put it in the RPM Jukebox, too, so it's all in one place for everyone to explore. This will also make it easier to include your tunes in the Jukebox as we make upgrades over the next few months (which we are very excited about!).
Let's party in Portsmouth!
Come one, come all!
- RPM Challenge Live Listening Party
- Saturday, March 15, 6-9 pm.
- Portsmouth Music and Arts Center, 973 Islington St.
We'll be taking over the new space at PMAC (map and directions here), where we can all gather under one roof and enjoy the sounds of all the new music that was made this month. We're looking forward to filling up the gallery, classrooms and recording studio. There will be break-out rooms where quieter songs can be heard, videos can be watched (and made), photos taken and more. There will be an on-site cafe with fare available for sale from our friends and fellow RPMers White Heron Tea Cafe. Most importantly, there will be music.
Let's come together to check out the news space, connect with fellow musicians, and give all these new songs a really good listen!
This is The Challenge - Record an album in 28 days, just because you can.
That's 10 songs or 35 minutes of original material recorded during the month of February. Go ahead… put it to tape.
It's a little like National Novel Writing Month, (NaNoWriMo.org) where writers challenge each other to write 1,700 words a day for 30 days, or the great folks over at February Album Writing Month (fawm.org), who encourage artists to write 14 new songs in February. Maybe they don't have "Grapes of Wrath" or "Abbey Road" at the end of the month, or maybe they do—but that's not the point. The point is they get busy and stop waiting around for the muse to appear. Get the gears moving. Do something. You can't write 1,700 words a day and not get better.
Don't wait for inspiration - taking action puts you in a position to get inspired. You'll stumble across ideas you would have never come up with otherwise, and maybe only because you were trying to meet a day's quota of (song)writing. Show up and get something done, and invest in yourself and each other.
Anyone can come up with an excuse to say "no," so don't. Many of you are thinking "But, I can't do that! I don't have any songs/recording gear/money/blah blah blah..." But this doesn't have to be the album, it's just an album. Remember, this is an artistic exercise. Just do your best using what you have in order to get it done. If you have a four-track, become a four-track badass! A mini disc, a pro-tools rig, a Walkman, an 80's tape recorder – use it. Do your best. Use the limitations of time and gear as an opportunity to explore things you might not try otherwise. If you can afford studio time in a "real" studio, fine, but let's be completely free of any lingering idea that "good" records can only be made in a studio. If that were so, then all the old scratchy blues records or Alan Lomax field recordings that have changed our culture – the world's culture – wouldn't still resonate with us today as they do. Springsteen's haunting classic "Nebraska" was a demo he did at home on a crappy machine. That album is fricking awesome. What label would put those recordings out now? (See: who cares) There are a million examples of this kind of stuff, but the fact will always be: Well written, honest music is compelling and undeniable no matter what it was recorded on. So put it to tape.

LONDON -(Dow Jones)- The U.K. government's decision to retrospectively order Barclays PLC (BCS) to close down two tax loopholes and pay an estimated GBP500 million earlier this year was "completely unwarranted" and caused unnecessary damage to the bank's reputation, Chief Executive Bob Diamond said in a letter to the Treasury Select Committee that was released Monday.
In a letter to Treasury Select Committee Chairman Andrew Tyrie, dated May 15, Diamond said the tax situation arose after the bank voluntarily told the tax department, Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs, that it had bought back some of its own debt in a "tax efficient manner."
Diamond said the bank received guidance from professional advisers that the tax treatment was compliant with the Tax Code, and that other companies had used similar practices.
Diamond said the bank was therefore surprised to be singled out by the Treasury and for Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury David Gauke to name the bank in his statement to Parliament and accuse it of entering into a "highly abusive" arrangement. Diamond said this naming had compromised the principle of taxpayer confidentiality.
"The way in which this situation was handled seems to us to have been completely unwarranted," Diamond wrote. "Unnecessary damage was placed on Barclays reputation just at a time when the focus should be on rebuilding confidence and accelerating growth, not undermining it."
The committee also released a letter from Tyrie to Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne to respond to Diamond's comments.

Marketing forum "Everyone sells!" to be held March 26
"Everyone sells!" is the title of a panel discussion to be held at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, Tuesday, March 26, 2013 at 4 pm in Schneider Hall Room 100. The event is free and open to the public.
"Too often students think of sales as something that happens only in a corporate setting," said Dr. Bob Erffmeyer, professor of marketing and director of the Center for Sales and Sales Management. "This year's panel focuses on careers not traditionally associate with sales. All of our panelists are effective "salespeople" who know how to "sell" their organizations to others."
Members of the 2013 panel include
- Jackie Boos, membership and group sales manager, Visit Eau Claire
- Heather Kretz, assistant director, UW-Eau Claire Admissions
- Suzie Slota, director of financial development, YMCA of Eau Claire.
Erffmeyer and Jerry Kollross, sales coach and instructor, and assistant director of the Center for Sales and Sales Management, will moderate the discussion.
The panelists will discuss how they use sales skills to further the goals of their organizations. They will offer recommendations to students who wish to pursue careers similar to theirs.
"Our goal is to show all students, not just marketing students, that selling skills are very useful to have," said Kollross.
Effective sales people, according to Erffmeyer and Kollross, are persuasive communicators who have excellent oral and written communication skills. They know the features and benefits of the product or service they are selling as well as the offerings of their competitors. They are good networkers who can build rapport, and develop and maintain good relations by listening to their customer's needs and following through on their requests. Effective sales people are self-confident, motivated individuals who are goal oriented.
"These skills are critical for success," said Kollross. "This is true whether you are selling a product, a service, an idea, a community, a university, or even yourself during a job interview."
The panel is the first program in the 2013 Hot Topics: Marketing Forum series. The event is sponsored by the UW-Eau Claire Department of Management and Marketing, Center for Sales and Sales Management, and the UW-Eau Claire Chapter of Pi Sigma Epsilon (PSE). The panel is held in conjunction with the 2013 UW-Eau Claire Women's History Month.
For more information, contact Dr. Bob Erffmeyer and Jerry Kollross, Department of Management and Marketing.

Is it just me, or was this holiday a book bonanza for you too? Book glutton that I am, I started three all at once:
- Salman Rushdie's Shalimar the Clown, about a Kashmiri acrobat-turned-terrorist, not that the plot even matters to me – I'll read any Rushdie for the lush language and incisive observation alone. (To hear me gush, ask me what I thought of Midnight's Children.)
- Tokyo: A Certain Style by Kyoichi Tsuzuki – with hundreds of photos of apartments of artists, animators, and avid collectors hardly larger than a futon, this book makes my one-bedroom apartment crammed with books seem wildly luxurious.
- Close to the Machine by Ellen Ullman, a software engineer whose memoir of tech life exposes the peculiar satisfactions of debugging, and the singular frustrations of living in a world rife with glitches that can't be readily fixed with code.
Credit for that last selection goes to my exceptionally well-read friend Anirvan over at BookFinder, who called it one of the most worthwhile books he's read in years – and that's coming from an omnivorous reader who's devoured 613 books in the past 6 years. (More impressive still: he has the complete list on his PDA, and keeps a running tally of books he likes. No, really.)
As for my own reading habits, it's confession time: I've never been a monogamous booklover. As a kid, I was bitter about the fact that the local library would only let a card-holder check out 16 books at a time. Never mind that I couldn't physically carry even 16; 20 or 25 seemed like a much more fair number. These days, the stacks of non-fiction, art & design books, and novels at home are tall enough that I finally dispensed with the formality of end tables, so that I didn't have to fear death by books during our recent minor earthquakes.
My New Year's resolution is to keep books at replacement levels – as one comes in, another goes out. This means that I have to get rid of 10 books to make up for my holiday haul … ahem. I'll let you know how that goes. But there's a loophole: At Blurb, I get to be surrounded by all the books I want.
What are your latest book acquisitions, from Blurb and elsewhere? Got any hot recommendations for me for 2007? (Hint: This is where you pipe up and plug your Blurb book.)

Using Windows Vista on a Corporate Mobile Network
Make the decisions that are best for your environment
Neil Tucker | 22 February 2007, 15:00 | Authentication | View Preview
Can you remember the frustration you felt the last time you needed to work on a document but couldn't connect to the network to use it? What about the last time you wanted to write an email or get some work done on the Internet, but you had to go to a different location where you could use a networked system? Multiply these problems and frustrations by every employee who has every experienced them and you will understand, if you don't already, why wireless networking is becoming a requirement in many offices. When properly implemented and used, wireless networking acts not only as a nice convenience, but as a valid tool for increasing productivity and efficiency.
Those who resist the idea of creating a Wi-Fi network will normally acknowledge its advantages, but express valid concerns about expanding the network infrastructure and preventing security problems inherent in the technology. Can you implement this kind of change without unduly impacting the security of the existing network infrastructure? Can you enforce security procedures created just for the wireless network on end-users working with laptops? Some of your users might be allowed to use their laptops on public Wi-Fi networks where you have no control. Can you run system checks and prevent computers with security problems from rejoining your network? If you are using an Active Directory domain with Windows Vista clients, the answer to all of these questions is yes.

When I founded The Comic Academy over a year ago, my initial focus was comic creators wanting to break into the industry. In the first market research survey I ran, which I advertised on comic-related forums, most people who responded wanted to work for the likes of Marvel and DC. And for many that's still the dream.
But there came the news this week that Marvel has made a number of key production and editorial staff redundant as part of a 'cost cutting exercise'. Named 'Marvelcution 2011', after the original cull of Marvel staff in 1995 shortly before the company declared bankruptcy, one wonders what's next on the horizon for the industry's flagship company.
It's been said that the workload will be shared amongst the remaining staff, and also that creators rates on lower-selling books are being cut.
But I'm not here to just tell you the news. It's being done much better on the likes of Bleeding Cool's site, with an overview here, and a summary of the various problems at Marvel here, and at The Beat, whose great, in-depth version of events is here. Here's hoping that those who have been cut find a brighter light at the end of the tunnel.
A Bright Future For Comic Creators
What I'd like to do in this article is explore the various options that comic creators have in these challenging but promising (yes, promising) times.
I've been particularly inspired by the moving retrospective that classic Hulk and FF artist Herb Trimpe wrote about his 5-year journey after being sacked by Marvel in 1995 (link here). In it he states:
"June 10: It hits me today about this being the first weekday of no official job. It is the first time since before the Air Force 34 years ago. An interesting sensation. Like hanging over the edge of a cliff. But maybe I can fly."
Unfortunately, back then the internet was in its infancy, so Trimpe struggled to find his niche all over again. But had he been part of the latest Marvelcution event instead, I'd bet that he wouldn't have had to wait so long for even greater success.
Twenty years ago, if you wanted to be a successful comic creator, you had to get hired, or rely on freelance work, whether that was with a comic publisher, a book publisher, or at a newspaper. Self-published comics, and even comic-related magazines and fanzines, were mainly underground works created more for love of the medium than large profits.
But now the world has changed beyond recognition. All of the following have become mainstream since the 1995 Marvelcution:
The internet, broadband, wi-fi, email, Computer Aided Design, webcomics, online forums, smartphones, tablet computers, online shopping, Google Adwords, inexpensive quality-driven self-publishing (e.g. Ka-Blam), banner ads, print-on-demand merchandise (e.g. Spreadshirt), Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, You Tube, hand-held video cameras, simple movie creation software, quality home printing, affiliate programs (e.g. Clickbank), worldwide outsourcing (e.g. Elance) and mobile phone apps.
That's a whole new infrastructure of hardware, software and services which come together to help us create great comics in multiple formats, backed up with a variety of merchandise, make them visible to a larger audience than ever before, and make it much easier for them to part with their cash.
To put it simply, the power to take valuable market share is no longer just with the publishers and distributers. It's with the individuals – the creators and the entrepreneurs.
Do you know what you really want?
But a large problem is that comic creators are unaware of the massive potential out there for getting their creator-owned material in front of a major audience without having to work for someone else.
When one of my mentoring clients tells me that their ultimate goal is to work for Marvel or DC, I have the responsibility to question their reasons behind that goal, to ensure that it is what they truly want. Their strongest desire may be to make history by writing or drawing seminal characters that they loved as a kid. I'm fine with that. I understand why that is so important to a lot of people.
But here's the thing – that desire needs to be weighed against the alternate future that they could build for themselves as a self-employed comic creator. Taking full responsibility for making their own characters come to life and inspiring a legion of fans from the ground up is arguably more satisfying in the long-term than writing a few issues of Ghost Rider, and it's a damn-sight bigger achievement.
If you thought that working for a publisher was your only road to success in comics, I hope this article has helped you consider alternate options.
But if your goal is still to work for the likes of Marvel or DC, I salute you as you've chosen the more difficult and uncertain path to success.
Whichever ideal future you choose, or if you're still undecided, my Comic Creator Success Secrets product, and the other articles on my blog, should help.
Or if you'd like to ask me a question or know more about my 1:1 mentoring services, please get in touch via the Contact Me page.

There's a fine line between the boardroom table and the kitchen table in any family business. Just ask Ellen Picataggio, 35, and husband Pete, 36, managing partners of The Farmer's Daughter, a 66-room hotel in Hollywood, California. The hotel was built in the 1960s and became a neighborhood icon, especially for fledgling actors who could get a room for as little as $25 a night.
Ellen's Korean-born parents bought the hotel in 1997 and continued to run it as a low-budget motel with the help of her sister, Christina. When Christina was killed in a car accident in 1999, Ellen's parents asked her to leave her job as an operations manager for a clothing manufacturer to take over operations at The Farmer's Daughter.
Pete considered leaving his job in business development for software company Symantec to join the family business. Leaving the corporate world was one hurdle; the thought of working seven days a week with his in-laws looking over his shoulder was another. "When they first asked, I said no," he says. "But the more I let my brain get behind it, the bigger a challenge it [appeared to be]."
He joined Ellen, and they started unpacking their own ideas. Ellen wanted to update the motel's design. Pete felt marketing and operations needed a huge overhaul. Both wanted to revamp The Farmer's Daughter into an upscale hybrid hotel-motel, a renovation that would cost a few million dollars. Ellen's parents, who are both in their 70s and spend most of their time off-site but maintain full ownership, resisted initially. "[My parents] come in every day for five or 10 minutes to look around and talk about what's going on," Ellen says. "Their minds are still very much involved in what's going on in the business."
The Picataggios gave Ellen's parents an ultimatum: Either you let us change some things, or we're outta here. "We sat down and said, 'If this is just going to be a Motel 6, we can't stay here.' That was step one," Ellen says.
The Picataggios also pressed her parents' hot button--the bottom line--by writing a business plan, preparing a sales pitch and letting them do the math. It worked: The renovation was completed in 2003, redecorated rooms are going for $115 to $122 a night, and The Farmer's Daughter has become a Hollywood nightspot for celebrity parties. Sales for 2005 are expected to reach $2.3 million.
Family members have to make a stellar case for any changes they propose, says Larry Bennett, director of the Larry Friedman International Center for Entrepreneurship at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island. To be taken seriously, "you have to quantify your rationale better than you would in a nonfamily business," he says. "You have to have an attorney's mind-set. That means knowing the answer before asking the question."
For the Picataggios, approaching Ellen's parents as investors and understanding their perspective was also key to changing their minds. "You have to keep it on a professional level," Ellen says. "That made a huge difference."

Dark Souls 2 producer discusses PC version and possibility of world events
by Ozzie Mejia, shacknews.com, Mar 12, 2014 12:00PM PDT
Dark Souls 2 launched on Xbox 360 and PS3 earlier this week, to the excitement of many within the Shacknews community. To help commemorate the launch, producer Tak Miyazoe recently spoke out about various aspects of the game, including answering some of Chatty's questions about the game's difficulty, online system, and the upcoming PC version.
Miyazoe emphasizes that the development team had Dark Souls 2's PC version in mind from the beginning, designing it to be a good Dark Souls experience across all platforms.
"We apologize for the delay, but we did spend time working on the PC version, making sure that we do attend to higher resolutions, higher framerates, and also keyboard mapping most controls," Miyazoe told GamerHub TV.
Miyazoe also adds that Dark Souls 2's server-based system for online play leaves open the possibility for world events. However, the development has not planned those out at this time, first wanting players to enjoy the online system as it is currently constituted.
"One of the main reasons why we wanted to re-visit the game server system was for that added level of role-playing in the online world, itself," Miyazoe added. "The Covenants have been improved. The new game servers, based on the beta we had last year, we noticed that there's a lot of online activity, a lot of players leaving blood messages, a lot of ghosts being seen. It obviously adds a new level to the online system itself."
Dark Souls 2 will hit PC on April 25.

The MTA's project to install an elevator at the Ozone Park-Lefferts Boulevard A train station has been delayed due to design issues, but it is expected to get off the ground early next year.
The plan, which includes a complete overhaul of the station's staircases and platforms, will also see an elevator installed at the station on the north side near Liberty Avenue and Lefferts Boulevard. It has been delayed for months due to design changes with the elevator shaft, according to Joe Raskin, the MTA's assistant director of government and community relations
"We've had to do some changes in the design," Raskin said at Monday's Community Board 10 meeting in South Ozone Park. "The changes do not affect whether or not we do the work."
The biggest change in the design is that the station will no longer have one elevator serving the street, mezzanine and platform levels. In the new design, there will be one elevator that will connect the street to the mezzanine in front of the fare collection system and then another that will connect the mezzanine to the platform level after a fare is collected.
The elevator construction will require the parking lane of westbound Liberty Avenue to be removed for about a third of the block between Lefferts Boulevard and 118th Street to allow for a wider sidewalk. The Q112 bus stop will be moved 33 feet west to allow for the sidewalk to be expanded. The elevator shaft will sit roughly in the middle of the sidewalk with about 9 feet of clearance on either side to allow pedestrians to walk around the elevators. The entrance to the lift will face Lefferts Boulevard. The elevator will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, as every elevator in the system does.
The Lefferts Boulevard station — the terminus for the Liberty Avenue elevated line — will also get new stairs, new platforms and a new roof. The width of the platform between the tracks and the elevator will be widened to be handicapped accessible.
Raskin said the work is now scheduled to begin in January. The MTA does not yet have a cost for the project until it goes out to bid, which will be in the next few months, and Raskin said in May it would take up to two years to complete.
The elevator will be the third to be placed at a station in CB 10, along with ones at Howard Beach-JFK Airport and the newly reopened station at Aqueduct Racetrack, which serves Resorts World Casino New York City.
Work is also expected to be contracted out this month for the reconstruction of the five other stations along Liberty Avenue: 80th Street, 88th Street, Rockaway Boulevard, 104th Street and 111th Street. The stations are expected to get their platforms and mezzanine levels overhauled as well as new staircases in some of the stations. New stairs were installed at Rockaway Boulevard several years ago.
The tracks above Liberty Avenue were overhauled in 1999 and the trestle was painted in the mid-2000s.

How do you get the chocolate thick when dipping chocolates. Someone told me to add a little bit of water when you are working the chocolate on the marble slab. Is this true or can you achieve this just by the way you dip?
Views: 374
Adding water to chocolate is going to make it seize, and then it is useless.
You may just have to try different chocolates to test viscosity, they are all different. I personally don't want my chocolate thick for dipping. I prefer a more fluid chocolate so the dipped items look better.
I have been in a class where a small amount of water was added to the chocolate, it was stirred vigerously (immediately from when the chcolate was added) and it did not seize. It does thicken the chocolate but I think if you did that the chocolate would be too thick to work with for dipping. I asked for a scientific explanation of why the chocolate did not seize but didn't really get an adequate explanation.
The chcolate is not useless after it has seized. It can be used for ganaches. It just cannot be used for tempering even if remelted.
You might try double dipping the chocolates for a thicker coating or as Robyn suggested look for a chocolate with a thicker viscosity when tempered that would give a thicker coating. www.chocosphere.com has product information, at least on some brands, about differing viscosities of the various chocolates.
Look for a lower % cocoa butter chocolate, ask for it from your supplier, or if looking for higher quality, a similar % cocoa butter in what you're using now but without the emulsifier such as lecithin. Look at the viscosity given for your paste and request a higher one.
Water brings on problems with how the chocolate melts down in the mouth and texture when eaten. Water can absorb up to twice its weight in the sugars, making a syrup, and the sugars can crystalize to larger and larger sizes over time making it gritty.

Title: Looked and hurt so good
Date: Nov 05, 2012
I'll start off by saying I'm not much of a heel person, i.e. I don't normally wear a heel higher than 2.5'' so I did find these kind of uncomfortable. However, I did get tons of compliments on them and they look absolutely fabulous - the paint is just as pictured and the stitching and everything looks like it's of good quality. I have fairly small feet but they're a little wide too so I did find the shoe a bit narrow. My flats are size 6-6.5, so when I wear heels, I usually go up to a 7. If I could do it over again, I would have gone up to a 7.5 for these shoes because my toes were pretty squished. I ended up getting small foam insoles for the ball of my foot and chugging two beers to help with the pain. I think I managed to get 2 hours wear out of them before I surrendered. So if the height and angles don't bother you: Buy these shoes! If they do: Buy these shoes and go to a party where you can take them off after 2 hours. Personally, I'm working on my pain tolerance so I can take these puppies out more often.

ABOUT THE FELLOWS PROGRAM. In the Fall of 1988, five Fellows from five countries arrived on campus to become the first class of Johns Hopkins International Philanthropy Fellows. In the years since, the Fellows Network has grown to include 148 Fellows from 54 countries, representing virtually every continent and region of the world. The result is a vibrant network of nonprofit professionals who share a common set of experiences and a common base of knowledge about the operations of the nonprofit sector in different parts of the world.
From the concept note, circa 1986:
The purpose of this program would be to offer students and practitioners in the voluntary sector abroad the opportunity to learn first-hand about the character and operation of the American voluntary sector, to encourage leadership development in the sector internationally, and to foster a greater sense of common purpose and mutual understanding among individuals involved in voluntary institutions throughout the world. In the process, the program would help create a truly international community of people who share a common base of knowledge about the nonprofit sector and its role in modern life.
In addition to continuing to bring highly-qualified Fellows to study at the Center, the program convenes regular conferences in different host countries, giving past and present participants in the Fellows program the opportunity to interface with local researchers and practitioners in these different countries, while at the same time broadening understanding of the nonprofit, philanthropic, and voluntary sector at the international level.
Philanthropy Fellows program applicants may choose to participate for either one semester (four months) or a full academic year (nine months). The program follows the Johns Hopkins academic calendar. Participants must complete a research project related to the role or operations of nonprofit or philanthropic organizations in the U.S., often including a comparison between some facet of the U.S. nonprofit sector and that found in the Fellows' country of residence or region of interest. Research topics have encompassed a wide spectrum of civil society concerns such as transparency and governance; public-private partnerships; nonprofit provision of social services; the marketization of nonprofits; charitable fund-raising; tax policy; the role of foundations; community organizing or empowerment; nonprofits and labor; and volunteerism.

Comments about Epiphone Masterbilt EF-500RCCE Fingerstyle Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I read all the reviews before I bought this one and I have several other Epiphones. While none of my Epi's can stand up to my Martins and Gibsons, they serve a good purpose. But this one is amazing. I used a mirror to look at every glue joint on the purfling, bracing and neck joint. There are no sloppy joints. My other Epi's are made in Korea and China. This one is made in Indonesia. The finish is not a gloss, as described in MF desciption, but is a matte. The manufacture's discription says there is no finish, but there is something and it looks good and feels good. There is no sandy feeling as some reviewers claimed. It has a good bright sound and the electronics and tuner are really good. It is definitely a fingerstyle guitar. A pick does it no good. For the price, this is an excellent purchase. On the strength of another review, I did buy extra strings and changed them out when I was having trouble tuning it. I had the same trouble with the new strings and I came to believe it was the bone nut. I think it could use a little file work to help the sting slide a bit. I can't find a case that really fits it and that I don't like. My Gibson 175 case fits it fairly well, but that case is a bit pricey for this guitar. I have been lead to believe that Epiphone is coming out with a case for it, but no one knows when.
Comments about Epiphone Masterbilt EF-500RCCE Fingerstyle Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I've only had this guitar a few days. The sound is way more than the price tag, both plugged and unplugged. The exterior workmanship is very good. While the looks are relatively plain, the feel of the guitar is that of a more expensive instrument. The solid musical tone-woods make all the difference. The EF-500RCCE does have it's short comings. The interior workmanship was not so good. The spruce bracings for the top and bottom appear to have been kiln dried rather than letting nature do it more slowly. The result is the braces seem brittle. I found a crack in one of the bottom braces. I don't think the overall structural integrity is diminished by the crack, but it's not what I look for in a brand new guitar. While the sound of the guitar is not impacted, I'd guess the longevity may be. Another problem occurred when I plugged it in. There were intermittent but constant pops and crackles in the amp, annoying to an extreme. While waiting for the makers of the electronics (shadow-electronics) to get back to me, I discovered that the hole drilled through the bridge to wire the under the bridge piezo, had accidently pierced the X brace. The wire from the piezo was run through it and apparently the wire itself vibrated when the guitar was played. This resulted in the unwanted noise. I would think that this is a rare occurrence. Getting the wire out of the X brace resolved the problem. The sound is indeed beautiful. Overall, I like the guitar and am good with the purchase. However, I do think there will be issues with the bracing a few years down the road.

I bought the Epiphone EF-500 RCCE because I was looking for a fingerstyle guitar but wanted an acoustic electric as well. I ordered it throcpattonugh a local dealer. When it came and I played it I was stunned!! This guitar has an amazing sound. The solid cedar top and solid rosewood back and sides look beautiful. Strummed it souds a little muddy but when you are fingerpicking, this guitar really lets you know what it is capable of. Epiphone really out did themselves with this one. My hat's off to them!! I would recommend this guitar to anyone!!

I am hoping for "shiny!" "Yes, that certainly is shiny!"
If no one says "big damn heroes" during this episode, I will be sorely disappointed...

Great ! Like her in Suits...
Yes!!! I absolutely adore Gina Torres!

Tuition will not increase next year at WSU, UWJuly 2, 2013 @ 4:34 pm
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) - For the first time in 27 years, tuition will not increase next year for students at Washington State University.
The WSU Board of Regents on Monday rescinded a previously approved 2 percent tuition increase for the 2013-2014 school year. The Moscow-Pullman Daily News ( http://bit.ly/12jtKXj) reported that in the past four years alone, tuition at WSU has risen by about 70 percent, to about $11,000 per year.
At the University of Washington, tuition will essentially not increase as well, except for a $14 student-approved fee, for a total of $12,397. Regents at UW made that announcement Monday.
The state's 2013-2015 operating budget, signed Sunday by Gov. Jay Inslee, states there will be no tuition increases at any of the state's public universities for the 2013-14 school year.
"I have been a regent for 10 years, and this is the first year I have not had to vote to raise tuition, and it's a real, real pleasure," said WSU Board of Regents chairwoman Connie Niva, of Everett.
Washington State president Elson Floyd said the legislative session was challenging but ultimately productive. The Legislature funded WSU as if it had implemented a tuition increase, Floyd said.
"This is a great day for our students and a wonderful day for their families and very much consistent with what we've been trying to do, that is to keep tuition as low as possible," he said.
Taylor Hennessey, president of the Associated Students of Washington State University, said student government leaders were also pleased with the new budget.
"I could not be more proud to call myself a Coug," Hennessey said.
While WSU students will not have any tuition increases next year, the Board of Regents previously has approved a $10 increase in the services and activities fee on the Pullman and Spokane campuses and a $3 increase in the Student Recreation Center fee in Pullman.

Bob White kept a secret for many years. He says, "I'm 73 years old. I don't have much longer?This is the most difficult thing I've ever done in my life." He's showing the world an artifact he claims fell off a UFO in 1985.
Steve Rock writes in The Kansas City Star that White keeps the artifact locked up in a small building he calls the Museum of the Unexplained. White says, "I've been called every name you can think of...What I'd like to see before I'm gone is the national media get their heads?out of the sand. I'd like to see the national media and everybody else realize that what I have is real.
"Once it happens," White says, "it's something you'll never forget?What I saw was not of this Earth." He didn't believe in the existence of UFOs before 1985. "I was the biggest skeptic in the world." But then he and a friend were driving from Denver to Las Vegas on lonely highway at 2 or 3 a.m. White was asleep in the passenger seat when his friend woke him up and pointed to a strange light in the sky, which eventually became so bright it almost blinded them. White got out of the car to look at it. He says the object was only about 100 yards in front of him "and it was huge?absolutely huge." Eventually, it zoomed quickly up into the sky, where it merged with what looked like a cigar-shaped UFO, then the larger ship disappeared.
As the craft flew away, White saw an orange light falling to the ground. It was red hot but he when it cooled, he picked it up and kept it a secret for about 10 years. "I didn't want anybody to call me a UFO nut," he says. "I was afraid it might hurt my career." The object is about 7? inches long and shaped like a teardrop. It's metallic and weighs less than 2 pounds. White had it tested and discovered that it's made mostly of aluminum. He removes the object from the museum display and puts it in a gun case at the end of every day. It never spends the night at the same place two nights in a row.
In 1996, NIDS (the National Institute for Discovery Science) sent a sample of it to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology. "The metallurgical analysis was pretty mundane," says NIDS spokesman. "We didn't find any evidence that it was extraterrestrial." But they couldn't identify it either.
White has twice passed polygraph tests about the encounter and the artifact. Capt. George Larbey, who, conducted the first polygraph test in 1998, says, "I believe he found an object that fell from the sky?There was no reason for me to believe he was intentionally fabricating any aspect of his story."
White says, "I don't know what I have to do to prove this is the truth. You can't make this stuff up."
If UFOs are real, why can't we find out the truth? But the truth can be hidden in many strange ways, such as within 8,000 ancient statues that reveal the principles of an ancient solar science and its remarkable insights into heaven, hell, and the immortality of the soul. Their secrets will be revealed on this week's Dreamland!
And Linda Howe reveals, for the first time ever, Dr. Dan Burish's encounters with the alien J-Rod at Area 51. He received the same message that the terracotta warriors reveal, and the shocking reason J-Rod and his kind are here, that is directly related to the SAME pointing to the year 2012. Subscribers: You can listen to the powerful new message from Leah Haley, who is one of the most famous abductees in the world.

Islands, the project led by former Unicorn Nick Thorburn, stays forever busy. Their last album, A Sleep & A Forgetting, is only a year old, but they've already announced plans for the follow-up. Ski Mask, the new one, is set to arrive this fall, and in a press release, Thorburn says that it's "like a summation of Islands, everything we've ever done distilled into one record." He also writes that the album is "really about being angry." "Wave Forms," the album's first single, is a florid and idiosyncratic pop song, one built from pianos and keyboards and lush studio orchestrations. Stream it below.
(via Pitchfork)
Ski Mask is out in September on Thorburn's own Manqué label.
