KIRKWOOD, N.Y. -- Broome County officials are encouraging the public to take advantage of job training and services available through the Broome/Tioga Workforce.
County Executive Debbie Preston announced Thursday that the workforce center recently received a $112,000 grant through the Federal Disability Employment Initiative, to fund employment training programs for the injured and disabled. The workforce center also offers many other programs for the unemployed.
Preston says there are currently more than 3,000 jobs available within in a 50 mile radius of Broome County.
"With the thousands of jobs available in our region and the resources of the Broome/Tioga Workforce, we have the potential to cut our number of unemployed individuals substantially," said Preston.
To find out more information, you can contact the Broome/Tioga Workforce at (607) 778-2136 or visit broometiogaworks.com.

Rachael vs. Guy Celebrity Cook-Off Caption It: We're Watching Youby Maria Russo in Shows, January 13th, 2012
The playing field is once again even on Rachael vs. Guy Celebrity Cook-Off, with only three competitors remaining on both Rachael Ray's and Guy Fieri's famous teams. In this Sunday's episode, the remaining six finalists will not compete together as Team Rachael versus Team Guy but individually, one-on-one.
Who better to evaluate this head-to-head battle than Chefs Scott Conant, Alex Guarnaschelli and Marcus Samuelsson, who have judged countless Chopped competitions. Here these all-star chefs look on curiously as the Cook-Off finalists race against the clock to execute plates that are prepared to impress. Will Judges Scott, Alex and Marcus be pleased with the contestants' efforts or will the dishes leave more to be desired?
Before you tune in this Sunday at 9pm/8c to watch the action unfold, we're challenging you, Rachael vs. Guy Celebrity Cook-Off fans, to write your best captions (tastefully appropriate, please) for this moment in the comments below.

24. An-Nur (The Light, 64 verses)
24.1. (This is) a sūrah which We have sent down and made obligatory (the observance of the rules therein); and in it, We have sent down clear explanations (of the truth about belief and unbelief) and instructions (concerning human life), so that you may reflect and be mindful.
24.2. The fornicatress and the fornicator – flog each of them with a hundred stripes; and do not let pity for them hold you back from carrying out God's law, if you truly believe in God and the Last Day; and let a group of believers witness their punishment.
24.3. A fornicator (one notorious for indulgence in illicit sexual relations) is not to marry other than a fornicatress (a woman notorious for indulgence in illicit sexual relations) or an idolatress; and a fornicatress – only a fornicator or an idolater is to take her in wedlock. Acting the other way is forbidden to the believers.
24.4. Those who accuse chaste, honorable women (of illicit sexual relations) but do not produce four male witnesses (who will witness that they personally saw the act being committed): flog them with eighty stripes, and do not accept from them any testimony ever after. They are indeed transgressors,
24.5. Except those of them who repent thereafter and mend their ways. For surely God is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate.
24.6. As for those who accuse their own wives of adultery but have no witnesses except themselves, such a person must testify four times swearing by God in each oath that he is indeed speaking the truth.
24.7. And the fifth time, that God's curse be upon him if he is lying.
24.8. But the punishment will be averted from the wife if she testifies four times by swearing by God in each oath that the man is surely telling a lie,
24.9. And the fifth time, that the wrath of God be upon her if the man is speaking the truth.
24.10. Were it not for God's grace and favor upon you, and His mercy, and that God is One Who opens a way to repentance and returns it with liberal forgiveness and additional reward, and All-Wise, (you could not resolve your problems justly and wisely).
24.11. Surely those who invented and spread the slander (against 'Ā'ishah, the Messenger's wife) are a band from among you. However, do not deem this incident an evil for you; rather, it is good for you. (As for the slanderers,) every one of them has accumulated sin in proportion to his share in this guilt, and he who has the greater part of it will suffer a tremendous punishment.
24.12. When you heard of it, why did the believing men and women not think well of one another and declare: "This is obviously a slander!"?
24.13. Why did they not produce four witnesses (in support of the accusation)? Now that they have not produced witnesses, it is indeed they who are the liars in God's sight.
24.14. Were it not for God's grace and favor upon you, and His mercy in the world and the Hereafter, a mighty punishment would certainly have afflicted you (who got involved in circulating rumors), on account of what you indulged in.
24.15. Just think how you welcomed it with your tongues from one another, and uttered with your mouths something about which you had no knowledge. You deemed it a trifle, whereas in God's sight it was most grave.
24.16. Why did you not say, when you heard of it, "It is not for us to speak of this. All-Glorified are You (O God)! This is an awesome slander. "
24.17. God admonishes you lest you ever repeat anything like this, if you are (truly)] believers.
24.18. He clearly expounds to you His instructions and the signposts of His way. God is All-Knowing, All-Wise.
24.19. Those who love that indecency should spread among those who believe, surely for them is a painful punishment in the world and the Hereafter. God knows (the exact truth and nature of all matters), but you do not know.
24.20. Were it not for God's grace and favor upon you, and His mercy, and that God is All-Pitying, All-Compassionate (especially towards His believing servants, what terrible consequences would such evils have caused in your community)!
24.21. O you who believe! Do not follow in the footsteps of Satan. Whoever follows in the footsteps of Satan, (let him know well that) Satan insistently calls to all that is indecent and shameful, and all that is evil. Were it not for God's grace and favor upon you, and His mercy, not one of you would have ever attained purity; but God purifies whomever He wills. God is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.
24.22. Let not those among you who are favored with resources swear that they will no longer give to the kindred, the needy, and those who have emigrated in God's cause (even though those wealthy ones suffer harm at the hands of the latter). Rather, let them pardon and forbear. Do you not wish that God should forgive you? God is All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate.
24.23. Those who falsely accuse chaste women, who are unaware of devious ways of corruption and are believers, are cursed in the world and the Hereafter, and for them is a mighty punishment.
24.24. On the Day when their own tongues and hands and feet will all bear witness against them in regard to what they were doing.
24.25. On that Day, God will pay them in full their just due, and they will come to know that God is the Ultimate Truth and Ever-Constant (from Whom nothing is hidden, and Who makes all truth manifest).
24.26. (In principle,) corrupt women are for corrupt men, and corrupt men for corrupt women; just as good, pure women are for good, pure men, and good, pure men for good, pure women. (On account of their purity and chastity coming from faith,) the latter are innocent of all that evil tongues may impute to them. For them there is forgiveness and an honorable, generous provision.
24.27. O you who believe! Do not enter dwellings other than your own until you have ascertained the permission of their residents and have greeted them with peace. Your doing so is what is good and appropriate for you, so that you may be mindful (of good manners and proper courtesy).
24.28. Then, if you find no one in them, do not enter them until you have permission to enter. If you are asked to go back, then go back (without feeling offended). It is a purer way for you. God has full knowledge of all that you do.
24.29. There is no blame on you if you enter dwellings that are uninhabited which are of use to you. (But always bear in mind that) God knows whatever you reveal (of acts or intentions) and whatever you keep concealed.
24.30. Tell the believing men that they should restrain their gaze (from looking at the women whom it is lawful for them to marry, and from others' private parts), and guard their private parts and chastity. This is what is purer for them. God is fully aware of all that they do.
24.31. And tell the believing women that they (also) should restrain their gaze (from looking at the men whom it is lawful for them to marry, and from others' private parts), and guard their private parts, and that they should not display their charms except that which is revealed of itself; and let them draw their veils over their bosoms, and (tell them) not to display their charms to any save their husbands, or their fathers (and grandfathers, and both paternal and maternal uncles), or the fathers of their husbands, or their sons, or the sons of their husbands (both their own and step-sons and grandsons), or their brothers (and foster- and step-brothers), or the sons of their brothers, or the sons of their sisters, or the Muslim women and the women of good conduct with whom they associate, or those (slave-girls) their right hands possess, or the male attendants in their service free of sexual desire, or children that are as yet unaware of femininity. Nor should they stamp their feet (i. e. act in such a manner as to) draw attention to their charms (and arouse the passion of men). And, O believers, turn to God all together in repentance that you may attain true prosperity.
24.32. Marry those among you who are single (whether men or women) and those of your male and female slaves that are righteous (and fit for marriage). If they are poor, God will grant them sufficiency out of His bounty. God is All-Embracing in His mercy, All-Knowing.
24.33. Let those who cannot afford to marry keep themselves chaste until God grants them sufficiency out of His bounty. And if any of those whom your right hands possess desire to enter into a contract with you to purchase their freedom, make this contract with them if you know that they are honest (and able to earn without begging and be good, free citizens). Help them out of God's wealth which He has granted you. And do not compel your slave-girls to prostitution in order to seek the (fleeting) benefits of the life of this world while they desire to remain chaste. If anyone compels them to prostitution, then God will be All-Forgiving, All-Compassionate to them after they are subjected to such compulsion.
24.34. Indeed, We have sent down to you Revelations which show the truth clearly and illuminate your way, and examples (from the histories) of those who have passed away before you, and an instruction for the God-revering, pious.
24.35. God is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His Light is like a niche wherein is a lamp; the lamp is in a crystal, and the crystal, shining as if a pearl-like radiant star, lit from the oil of a blessed olive tree that is neither of the east nor of the west. The oil would almost give light of itself though no fire touches it. Light upon light! God guides to His Light whom He wills. God strikes parables for people. God has full knowledge of all things.
24.36. (This light can best be obtained, and those guided to it are found) in some houses (that are usually concealed from people's eyes and) for which God has provided a way for them to be built and appreciated, and for His Name to be mentioned and invoked therein; in them, glorify Him in the morning and evening.
24.37. (Those guided are) men (of great distinction) whom neither commerce nor exchange (nor any other worldly preoccupations) can divert from the remembrance of God, and establishing the Prayer in conformity with all its conditions, and paying the Prescribed Purifying Alms; they are in fear of a Day on which all hearts and eyes will be overturned.
24.38. God will reward them in accordance with the best of what they have ever done, and give them yet more out of His bounty (i. e. , more than they deserve). God provides beyond all measure for whom He wills.
24.39. As for the unbelievers, all their deeds are like a mirage in the desert, which the thirsty one supposes to be water until he comes up to it, only to find that it was nothing; instead, he finds God near it, and He settles his account in full. God is swift at settling the account.
24.40. Or their deeds are like veils of darkness covering up an abysmal sea down into its depths, covered up by a billow, above which is a billow, above which is a cloud: veils of darkness piled one upon another, so that when he stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it. For whomever God has appointed no light, no light has he.
24.41. Do you not see that all that is in the heavens and the earth, and the birds flying in patterned ranks with wings spread out glorify God. Each knows the way of its prayer and glorification. God has full knowledge of all that they do.
24.42. To God belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; and to God is the homecoming.
24.43. Do you not see that God gently drives the clouds, then joins them together, (completing the formation of a circuit between them,) and then turns them into a thick mass, and consequently you see rain-drops issue out of their midst. He sends down hail out of snow-laden mountains (of clouds) from the sky, and smites with it whom He wills, and averts it from whom He wills. The flash of the lightning almost takes away the sight.
24.44. God turns about the night and the day. Surely in that is a lesson for those who have the power of seeing.
24.45. God has created every living creature from water. Among them are such as move on their bellies, and such as move on two legs, and such as move on four. God creates whatever He wills. Surely God has full power over everything.
24.46. Assuredly, We have sent down Revelations which show the truth clearly and illuminate your way. God guides whom He wills to a straight path.
24.47. They say, "We have believed in God and in the Messenger, and We have promised obedience (to both)," but then, after that a party among them turn away (contradicting their declaration by their attitudes and actions). Such are not believers.
24.48. When they are called to God and His Messenger so that the Messenger may judge between them, see how a party among them turn away in aversion.
24.49. If the right be on their side, they come willingly in acceptance of it.
24.50. Is there a disease in their hearts (that corrupts their will and character)? Or have they fallen prey to doubts? Or do they fear that God and His Messenger will deal unjustly with them? No, the truth is that they themselves are wrongdoers.

I'm madly in love with this timepiece by Dior! This is the Dior VIII Grand Ball watch with a black mother-of-pearl dial set with diamonds. It has a black ceramic case and bracelet and bezel set with diamonds. It's a fabulous accessory that you can wear casually with a pair of jeans and more dressed up with a sexy cocktail number. Cheers and Happy Wednesday!

I am an avid lover of Christian Dior bags, sunglasses, jeans, gowns, makeup, etc. etc. Pretty much everything by Dior, "J'adore." I especially love today's 'Lady Dior Bag' from the Resort 2011 collection and it's black quilted lambskin, pearl detailing, and the gold letters spelling out "D.i.o.r." Enjoy and Happy Monday! xoxo

This group is established to petition Suunto to deliver on what they promised - ongoing upgrades to the firmware and features for the Ambit 1.
Suunto have responded to the feedback provided and asked that a link be provided on this group page. Please find a link below to Suunto's announcement regarding a future upgrade to the Ambit 1.
Suunto have obviously been listening to the comments so if you have further feedback for them then continue to express your views.
Adventure racing, Aerobics, Alpine skiing… (+70 more)
See above link for the announcement from Suunto in response to the feedback they have received.
Join this group to let Suunto know what you think.
For people thinking about the Suunto Ambit 2 review or Suunto Ambit 2S review, the experiences of Ambit 1 owners may be relevant for you.
Sorry, "<" and ">" characters are not allowed.
… and vibration alerts :)
920xt HERE WE GO !!! Ant bluetooth !!!
Hello, can you test, one of my applications in your sporting activities. In " Plan&Create " ; in "App Zone" ; in " Search Apps " ; input : jfcalypso . Kind regards
Have a look on Rainmakers side (he tested the A2S, too). There you can read what is compatible and what not … Here is the side of A1-owners … more or less ;)
But if you want to buy an Ambit I would change to A3 cause the A2 (and A1) still uses ANT( ) and that's not the last technique for Suunto Ambit - now they are using Bluetooth smart for the new watch … Every year a new one ;)
Hi guys, do you know witch bike cadence pod I can pair with a Suunto Ambit 2S?
I have tryed 2 diferents (one from Decathlon and the GARMIN GSC10) and none of them works with!
Both was supposed to be compatible ant !!!
Thanks , cheers
I have an ambit 2 sapphire and it works with the decathlon one.
Some older units are not compatible.GSC10 is said to be compatible too.

Win everyAir desktop app for the iPad {WoW}
Nov 27th 2010 2:22PM I'd probably use this, as long as I could do the following:
Have the system capture only one monitor; set a virtual monitor on my system, place WoW on it and have the application output only the display for the virtual monitor. Then have the computer set to accept multiple mouse and keyboard inputs, so that the system could be used for other things without interfering with the WoW time. While thats a bit of a stretch, it could probably work
Alternatively, the one easier method is to get a slightly dated desktop or build a low power "headless" desktop with a decent graphics card and just remote into it for gaming. The advantage of the first option of course being I don't have to use another computer for it.
Either way this application looks pretty cool. Shame I didn't pop by in time to comment and enter the contest. Either way, I might buy it if I ever get an iPad.

Apr 19th 2010 11:52PM Not once did I claim that the Windows Powertoy version was better. All I claimed was that you didn't seem to look into any programs for windows that did this before Dexpot, and made it seem like Dexpot was the only chance Windows had to catch up with Linux OS's in the virtual desktop field.
Look I'm not trying to bash the article itself; for what its worth it is well written and informative on the benefits of Dexpot. Just little things like that irk me, blame it on the morning grumpies if you will but oh well.

Apr 19th 2010 9:01AM Find it cute that I can't respond to your responses Sebastian. Not trying to rain on your parade, but all I'm suggesting is that before you make a claim like that maybe you should find out what alternatives have been there for years. Also keep in mind that said powertoy came out years before Dexpot, and was made for an OS from 2001, so yeah it might not be as up to date.

Apr 19th 2010 8:30AM Been a Powertoy that gave virtual desktops for XP since around the time XP came out. So your article is a bit inaccurate when you make the "Virtual desktops have long been one of those things that Linux has held over Windows (and Mac too, until recently)".. at the start of the article.
Will iPhone OS 4.0 include direct printing from iPhones and iPads? {Download Squad}
Apr 8th 2010 8:56AM I see there being a potential for it working only on Wi-Fi networks, printing by connecting to an iTunes supporting computer or computer with Bonjour installed then printing from there. Of course something like that is pretty hackjob yet I find it hard to believe they would write all the drivers for it either. I guess we will see today.

Arnovitz: Celtics make lemonade out of lemons
Kevin Arnovitz with a phenomenal look at what makes the Celtics so difficult to defend when they're on their game.
2 Responses to "Arnovitz: Celtics make lemonade out of lemons"
That really is a great discussion, but here is where it exits reality:
"The Celtics rarely futz around getting into their offense as so many teams do, which gives them time to run through their full list of triggers. "
That's actually only true when Rondo is focused and playing with energy. Far far too often, Rondo doesn't seem to start the play until well into the 24 second clock. At that point, there's only time for the first option, which frequently doesn't work. This is one of the most important reasons why an aggressive, focused, energized Rondo matters. We have to get into our plays early in the shot clock so we have time to go through options, and possibly even to run another play. Also, it helps in keeping the defense off balance. When Rondo waits for the offense to set, that also gives the defense plenty of time to set.

The Vaughn Velocity V6 1100 Goalie Blocker features a lightweight construction and has a more traditional look and feel to it than the other models in the Velocity series.
The materials in the V6 1100 blocker are of a very high quality, producing a blocker that is both extremely protective and lightweight.

My af is finished now after my chemical pregnancy from last week. I guess I am doing okay. It was such a sad time. I only knew I was pregnant for about 5 days. There was only one day when I didn't know something was wrong.
We went to the fertility clinic last Thursday and she had really good news for us. My amh level was 10.4 which she said was above average for my age (42). My husband's sperm count was good too. She did recommend IVI for us but we aren't sure yet what to do. We may try again on our own but she said because of my age we didn't have much time to wait. It upset me a bit that she hadn't read my file completely and don't know that I was currently miscarrying. She said at least I am ovulating and I am able to get pregnant.
Yesterday I went to my hematologist. I still have blood clots in both legs and there has been no change since January. I had to switch meds again because I'm no longer pregnant which has been affecting me big time. I think we may take this month off of ttc to regroup. Bella

I am so sorry Kendal. Life is so unfair sometimes.
Well ladies, as most of you know the OB put me on progesterone to restart my cycle, as I had missed my period. Well I did not get even half way through the meds. I went to NY for the weekend to a fertility seminar on Sunday. What happened?!! Ironically AF arrived on that very day. I am not going to complain, as I have made my mind up to cherish every cycle that happens. It happened to be a little inconvenient, but it was ok. The thing is, my body did not need that medication. It happened pretty much on its own. Woo hoo!

Film festival reflects cultural voice
Festival's fare showcases Jewish experience in San Diego
Having worked in television for nearly 30 years, Reiss certainly has some perspective on the role Jewish writers have played in the medium's evolution. "When I started writing for TV in 1983, literally everyone was Jewish. And those numbers have just dwindled over time," he said. Why the decline? Reiss offered his theory, "There are a lot of professions where Jews, through history, would get marginalized into, and then they'd achieve great success and everybody would pile into it. Comic books were especially like that. All the great comic book heroes were created by Jewish writers, and since they made it into an art form, everybody wants to write comic books."
Reiss also noted that the three series in his presentation were created by Christians, but developed by Jews, including the "The Simpsons," the brainchild of Matt Groening and developed for television by Sam Simon. But Reiss doesn't put too much stock in his "odd observation." In fact, he attributes much of "The Simpsons' " Jewish-themed content to his Catholic writing partner, Al Jean, who now runs the series for Fox.
"Al just loves the Jewish stuff. He was the reason there would be so much Jewish content on the show," Reiss cheerfully explained in reference to the show's infamous Jewish character, Krusty the Clown. "The Jewish writers would always be a little sensitive and wonder, 'Gee, is anyone interested in this?' And the Christians would respond, 'Oh, Jews are hilarious! The way they talk, and their customs. The way a Rabbi dresses is so funny."
While some might find this sentiment at least a little offensive, a comedy writer like Reiss takes it all in good fun. "It was sort of nice to know something," Reiss said. "Al would say, 'All right, what would Krusty say about this? What's a good Jewish term?' And you'd be happy, saying 'Hey, I know the Yiddish word he would say!' And you'd throw out some Jewish bit of arcana. It was fun to be finally putting all those years of Hebrew school to good use."

Matt Dallas and Bruce Thomas, Kyle XY
For months fans have wondered, "Who is Kyle XY? What is he?" In the end, might this seemingly supernatural being with the rather super abilities be just a long-missing milk-carton kid named Noah Peterson? That is precisely what's proposed in the opening minutes of the ABC Family series' first season finale, airing tonight at 8 pm/ET. But it can't be that simple, right? Right?! TVGuide.com spoke with Kyle's "dad," Bruce Thomas, about the switch in parental units ahead.

Question: I heard recently on the radio that folk-music promoter Harold Leventhal had passed away, and as the announcer described his life and career, I got to thinking about one of my all-time favorite movies, A Mighty Wind. To what extent, if any, is the dead folk-music promoter in the film based on Mr. Leventhal? The similarities seemed apparent to me.Answer: And to others, believe me. Harold Leventhal is widely but unofficially acknowledged as the inspiration for A Mighty Wind's (2003) Irv Steinbloom; Levanthal's clients were a who's who of celebrated folk singers, including Bob Dylan, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez,

Its oil slick finishes, wood trims and cotton webbing stand in striking contrast to the more feminine and sophisticated take on a military inspired theme. Vibrant reds, yellows and cobalt heat up the Modern Tribe Collection. Leather and resin details mix with eclectic prints and geometric silhouettes. Tassels finish off closures and add a final layer of understated femininity. This season we set our sights on details that stand out, all with effortless style and ease.

Unofficial results in Tuesday's general election indicate Democrat Rick Howard unseated 12-year veteran Ed Taylor for the District 2 seat on the Franklin County Board of Commissioners. The close race came down to the last reporting precinct, with Howard receiving a total of 1,262 votes and Taylor walking away with 1,200.
With such a small margin in the unofficial numbers, Howard said he is cautiously optimistic about his chances of winning the election because some votes have not yet been counted.
"There's still provisional votes that have to be counted and I think there are several votes still out there, so it's not a done deal yet," Howard said Tuesday night after hearing the results.
The Franklin County Board of Commissioners, as well as the county election officer, are expected to open any provisional ballots and count them starting at 8:30 a.m. Nov. 15 in the county clerk's office inside the courthouse, 315 S. Main St., Ottawa. At that point, the official votes will be released, and Howard said he hopefully will be able to breathe a sigh of relief after the more-than-week-long wait.
"I feel good about being on top at this time," Howard said. "Like I said, it's very close and there's several more votes out there to be sorted through, so I don't want to jinx myself yet and say anything and get too happy about this until they get those in and see where we stand."
Receiving more than 48 percent of the votes, according to unofficial results, Taylor said he was disappointed about the vote's outcome, but that he was expecting a close race in the second district. He said he wishes Howard, whom he called his friend, luck in the future.
"I feel very fortunate to have served the 12 years. I've seen a lot of changes in the face of county government in that time," Taylor said Tuesday night. "I think Franklin County is in good shape, and I wish him all the best."
"I don't think you'll get that many provisionals; there never is. I would be very surprised if there were that many," he said. "Even if there were that many provisionals, you're not going to get them all."

Sat, May 12, 2007
Members of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association are
opposed to the idea of a $25 per flight user fee for
turbine-powered aircraft, AOPA President Phil Boyer told members of
the Senate Commerce Committee in a May 10 letter.
Boyer (right) acknowledged the Aviation Investment and
Modernization Act of 2007 (Senate Bill 1300), the Senate's
alternative to taxes and user fees proposed by the FAA in its bill,
did address many AOPA members' concerns.
"With that said, AOPA remains very concerned about the
precedent-setting introduction of user fees and the impact on our
members who fly turbine-engine aircraft," Boyer wrote. Even though
piston-engine aircraft would be exempt from the charge, "the
majority of AOPA members are opposed to the surcharge, believing
that once a user fee or surcharge is introduced, it is only a
matter of time before it will apply to them."
Boyer noted the positives in the Senate bill,
including increased airport funding and no increase in taxes on
aviation gasoline. He also said AOPA supports modernization of the
air traffic control system... but reaffirmed his belief the NextGen
program can be paid for through the FAA's existing tax-based
financing system.
"As the FAA reauthorization bill moves through the process, we
ask that you support efforts, such as an amendment, to address the
concerns of pilots by removing the air traffic modernization
surcharge from the legislation," Boyer wrote the committee.
Meanwhile on the other side of the Capitol, one member of the
House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee took sharp note
of the user fee provision in the Senate bill.
"Some people are doing everything they can to advocate for a
user fee. I think it's pretty clever what happened over in the
Senate," said Iowa congressman Leonard Boswell during an aviation
subcommittee hearing on May 9. "Pretty clever to separate the
general aviation community.... I hope we don't go down that
Boswell, a pilot, AOPA member, and vocal opponent of user fees,
said he did not want to see general aviation in the
United States destroyed by user fees as it has been elsewhere in
the world.
The House Transportation Committee will be writing its own FAA
funding/reauthorization bill. Differences between the Senate and
House bills will ultimately be reconciled in a joint conference

On Doc Rivers, and the downside of NBA life
I always dreamed of playing in the NBA. As young basketball players, don't we all? We see the money, the cars and the clothes (I just wanna be, I just wanna be successful), and we suspect the NBA life would be perfect. Play basketball, work out, and have no other responsibilities. That sounds like a life I would kill for.
But there's also another aspect of NBA life, one which can murder families and break up marriages: travel. When you play 82 games in a span of six months, and 41 of them are on the road, the NBA lifestyle takes quite a toll on families. Just look at Christmas Day. The Celtics spent it in Orlando, where a few C's (I assume) were thousands of miles away from home, away from their families. On Christmas, people, when families everywhere are spending time together.
Most of the time, we hear nothing about the difficulties of an NBA relationship. We hear the occasional tidbit about cheating that goes on during road trips. We hear that Acie Green was the only NBA player, married or single, to remain sexless on the road (which is likely an exaggeration). But his sexlessness doesn't count as faithfulness, mostly because he was the Tim Tebow of basketball players. And I don't mean that he was a bruising player with a bad throwing motion whose game excelled in college but may not translate to the NBA. I mean that Green was a virgin. It's pretty tough to cheat on your partner when A) you don't have sex with anyone at all, and B) you don't have a partner to begin with. Other than whispers of cheating players (and Eric Williams, who blatantly admits to cheating on his way-too-pretty-for-him wife), we rarely hear about the NBA season as an obstacle to familyhood.
Doc Rivers provides one of the rare glimpses into an NBA family. Rivers isn't just a loving father and husband — he's also open about the difficulties his NBA life provides. He ponders retirement after every season, as he thinks about how great it would be to spend more time with his children and wife. Family means a lot to Rivers, and being away from his wife and kids sucks. Rivers' four children live in three different cities, and (if I'm not mistaken) his wife lives in Orlando. And Rivers isn't in any of those cities. During the season, he can normally only see his family on off days. Even then, he needs to fly on a plane, often halfway across the country, to visit.
This summer, knowing the strain coaching put on his wife and kids, Doc let his family vote on his coaching future. (Boston Globe)
The coach called a meeting in early July to assess the family's feeling on him taking a hiatus. All four children voted against him stepping away.
"I felt like that would be selfish of us to take him away from what he loves,'' Jeremiah said. "We don't feel like he's hurting our family. My mother [Kristen] is a strong woman, she's been holding down the fort darn near 10 years now. So we know what the deal is, we know he's providing for our family and we know he really wants to be at our games. It's not like he's trying to do better stuff.
"He came to my championship games in high school. He's taken private jets at 2 a.m. to get to our games the next day. I know it's difficult. It's tiring. It's stressing, but he loves us. The biggest thing is we all understand.''
Would I give my left eyebrow for a chance to become an NBA coach? Well, let's see.
On the one hand, there's blogging. I wake up at 6:00 a.m. most days, read and write all day, and get paid almost nothing. The following is a true story: I went to a bar last night and ordered three waters. Why did I order waters at a bar, rather than an alcoholic drink, or even a soda? Because I couldn't afford a beer. Seriously. I blog because I would one day love to become a paid sports writer, and because it's fun to share my thoughts about basketball. But I'm a 23-year old dude living at home and earning no income, and that part sucks. The blogging life has its perks, of course. I watch a lot of TV, possess little responsibility besides writing, and work from home. I can watch my little brothers' basketball games, hang out with friends, coach JV basketball (also without pay), and see my parents every single day. But, again, I make almost zero money. Not even enough to afford a beer at the bar, or gas for my car.
On the other hand, there's the NBA life. I wouldn't get to see my family as much, and when I would, I might have to take a 2:00 a.m. flight. My family life would mostly be a string of phone calls, or Skype messages. I may spend holidays far away from home, and my kids would grow up largely without my guidance. But, umm, there would also be a few major pluses to come from the NBA life. A) I would be playing the best sport in the world for a living, which sounds pretty nice. B) I would be making a shit ton of money, even if I were the worst player in the league. And C) if I ever missed my wife, I'd be able to choose from dozens of groupies throwing themselves at me. Obviously, I'm only kidding about reason 'C'. There would actually be hundreds of groupies throwing themselves at me.
Do you understand my point? Me neither. I guess what I'm trying to say is this: playing basketball in the NBA would be amazing. I dreamed about it throughout my youth (until I realized I was too short, too lead-footed, and too un-skilled to reasonably hope for an NBA career), and I would probably throw my little brothers under a bus if it meant I could play or coach in the NBA today. (Sorry, Chris and Petey.)
But the NBA life isn't all gravy. Players and coaches make sacrifices, and those sacrifices often go unnoticed. In the holiday spirit, I recognize those sacrifices today.
Even if this post was far too long and uninteresting.

Video: José Parlá "Broken Language" on Nowness
This article was posted by Senior Editor 1 year, 10 months, 1 week, 2 days, 5 hours ago.
On the occasion of José Parlá's debut show at Haunch of Venison gallery in London, Nowness visited the artist in his UK studio working on a new body of work and takes to the streets to share his unique perspective.
Here's what Nowness had to say:
Concrete sculptures and large-format expressionistic paintings that combine collected ephemera with layered oils and graffiti-style brushstrokes bring the streets into the gallery for José Parlá's exhibition Broken Language, opening today at Haunch of Venison in London. In this documentary short, the New York-based, Miami-born artist mines inspiration from the pavements of Hackney for this latest solo show, giving us a peak into his signature practice of recording the urban environments he visits in his multimedia works. "London spirals and circles," observes the artist of the crazy, unplanned structure of the UK capital that is reflected in the dynamic wall-sized pieces currently on display there. "There are veins of alleyways and streets that go in different directions, and you have to know the routes to get around." Parlá has been visiting the city since the late 90s, and notes how both the natural and built environments have a distinct impact on its inhabitants in comparison to his adopted home. "The infrastructure is different, the colors are different, the vegetation is different, the grey skies are different—and when you have light, it's very special," says Parlá, who makes multiple trips to a locale when studying it for his creations. "There is a lot of psychology that goes with how a city is built."
Broken Language runs at Haunch of Venison, London through March 28.

She may have been in the "I have a checklist so I don't have to think mode". We had a lot of problems with PT assessments with my mom in the hospital. We would explain my mom had Alzheimer's and speech aphasia and couldn't answer their questions. They would say okay, and turn to my mom and start asking her questions, the one guy was a student and he just had to ask my mom these questions, because he had to fill out the form, even though she couldn't answer them.
Well, during one of my appointments during one of the years I was in my graduate program, a hospital social worker came to introduce herself and asked me, "What grade are you in?" I set her straight, straight-forwardly.

The Swimmer
By Shana Naomi Krochmal
Long before the Kardashians processed each new microemotion on TV, athletes were ambushed by flashing cameras while still in the throes of endorphins, peppered by questions about what their win/loss/tie meant to them, to their coaches, to their fans, to their nation. They were the first reality stars, and some were so good at it they retired to on-camera careers as commentators or actors or hosts.
When Nyad quit swimming, she enjoyed some celebrity -- she appeared on Johnny Carson's Tonight Show, was name-checked by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis on the front page of The New York Post, and was eventually courted by ABC Sports. "I'd done nothing like that," Nyad says. "I was at NYU, studying comparative literature for a master's degree, thinking I'd teach Madame Bovary." She covered world championships and the Olympics for Fox Sports, was a commentator for CBS, and hosted international travel documentaries and exotic animal shows, but is probably best known for a regular column on NPR.
Out of the water, Nyad is a big personality in a tiny frame (those ocean-crossing shoulders her mother worried about are strong, but she's surprisingly proportionally petite). She is confident, bordering on cocky, demanding in that charismatic way that stars have where you find yourself wanting to be helpful, even if it means agreeing to meet for the first time at a Volvo dealership at 8:30 on a Saturday morning.
In the three hours we spend together on a Los Angeles day that swings from gloomy overcast skies to scalding sunshine, I quickly learn that there is one thing that Nyad can do as well as she can swim: talk. Her stories are tight little races; you don't know where they're going until they arrive, usually in heart-wrenching detail, at a moment of great triumph or tragedy. Her sentences are less steady than her famously even strokes, often abandoned in her rush to get to the climax. But she has a marathoner's stamina; she almost never stops talking. It's not the selfish babble of a straight-up egotist—she also asks razor-sharp questions of everyone she encounters.
The only time she is content to be silent is when her best friend, business partner, and coach-like handler, Bonnie Stoll, is in the car with us, propped up in the backseat and cranky about being dependent while she recovers from knee surgery. Then it's as if Stoll's mere presence is enough to take up all the quiet space. Together, they focus on criticizing my driving -- "I could have walked down that hill as fast as you drove it," Stoll says -- and directing me to the personal-training appointment Stoll has for the fitness company they own together. It's a tiny glimpse of what I imagine Nyad experiences in the water, and I can't help but speed up.
Nyad now raises a good chunk of the cost of her marathon swims as a motivational speaker, addressing corporate retreats, colleges, and associations (a representative example can be found in her TEDMED talk available on YouTube). She can rattle off tips for aspiring toastmasters ("Don't talk about things you don't know") and has a tendency to veer off into her version of a stump speech: "We all have hopes and dreams. You get a certain finite time, and all you can do is be in awe of it." She is saved from a Tom Cruise–in-Magnolia-ish performance only by her transparent sincerity.
The story she tells over and over is about turning 60.
She had managed to stay relevant as a journalist. She was gregarious, outgoing, and charming. She didn't expend any energy trying to hide that she was a lesbian, once she figured it out -- at 21, she had taken a bus from New York City to Ann Arbor, Mich., for a friend's surprise birthday party. "They didn't tell me they were all gay," she says. "They thought, She won't care, she'll just get here and deal." She had sex with three women that night.
"I stayed for two weeks and went out every night and slept with everybody in the town." Before that, she says, "I was just so messed up. I didn't have any sexuality -- I just knew I didn't want to be with men. But I thought it was all just because of the trauma -- you never know, but I think I was gay from day one."

National Institute Of Health Awards Contract To Support Use Of IBio's Proprietary Technology For Improved Anthrax Vaccine
NEWARK, Del., Dec. 5, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- iBio, Inc. (NYSE MKT: IBIO) announced today that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the National Institutes of Health, has awarded a contract to the Company's research and development collaborator, the Fraunhofer USA Center for Molecular Biotechnology, for a new generation anthrax vaccine to be developed with the iBioLaunch™ Platform under a research license from iBio. The first year of funding will be $1.76 million with a total contract amount of up to $9.9 million, depending on the exercise of contract options.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120419/NY91086LOGO )
In October 2012, iBio announced issuance of a U.S. patent covering compositions of matter and methods of producing anthrax vaccines, an expansion of the Company's portfolio of assets relevant to bio-defense and infectious disease product applications. Data previously published in peer-reviewed scientific journals demonstrated the effectiveness of the iBioLaunch platform for development and production of vaccine candidates for both bacterial pathogens, such as plague and anthrax, and viral pathogens such as influenza and human papilloma virus.
"The award of this contract to Fraunhofer is an important expression of confidence in the importance of our iBioLaunch and iBioModulator™ technologies," said Terence Ryan, iBio's Chief Scientific Officer. "We believe that our portfolio of highly protective anthrax vaccines and monoclonal antibodies, along with this expanded anthrax initiative, will generate significant commercial interest in other novel applications of our technology."iBio's strategy for development of therapeutic and vaccine product applications of its technology platforms is through commercial collaboration and licensing internationally with corporations and government entities. In September 2012, iBio and GE Healthcare announced the formation of a new global alliance, and the Company's technology is being used for development of a new recombinant yellow fever vaccine under a commercial license and product development collaboration with Fiocruz/Bio-Manguinhos. Phase 1 clinical trials of influenza vaccine candidates produced via the iBioLaunch platform were funded by the U.S. Department of Defense and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundations. iBio previously announced success in the use of its platform for the production of a variety of therapeutic protein candidates including monoclonal antibodies and human blood plasma proteins. The Company is currently seeking additional partners for new vaccine candidates and for biotherapeutic products based on its platform technologies. About iBio, Inc.

'The Giver': Cookie-cutter teen dystopia shows some color
A movie review of "The Giver," a beautifully packaged but commercialized take on Lois Lowry's 1993 Newbury Award-winning young-adult novel. It got two stars out of four.
Seattle Times staff reporter
Movie Review ★★
'The Giver,' with Jeff Bridges, Meryl Streep, Brenton Thwaites, Katie Holmes, Cameron Monaghan, Odeya Rush, Alexander Skarsgård, Taylor Swift. Directed by Phillip Noyce, from a screenplay by Michael Mitnick and Robert B. Weide, based on the novel by Lois Lowry. 97 minutes. Rated PG-13 for a mature thematic image and some sci-fi action/violence. Several theaters.
Like the dystopian, emotionless world on which it is based, director Phillip Noyce's "The Giver" feels like an echo of Lois Lowry's 1993 Newbury Medal-winning young-adult novel, visually bringing to life Lowry's imagining without capturing her story's depth or thoughtfulness.
The story follows a teen, Jonas (Brenton Thwaites), as he is "selected" to become the next Receiver — the one individual who carries around the memories of the world and the only person to understand joy, pain, love and all the hallmarks of human experience. Jonas forms a strong bond with The Giver (Jeff Bridges), who must pass on to Jonas the burden of humanity, and begins to question his society's sacrifice of emotion for uniformity and stability.
In some ways, film is a better medium for the often visual story, especially because the world of "The Giver" is colorless. The movie is initially shot in black and white and strategically reflects Jonas' growing perception of colors, highlighting the red of an apple or the green of a tree in a way the book could never achieve. As the colors of the world begin to unfold before Jonas' eyes, the viewers are able to immerse themselves in his perspective and feel the simple wonder and beauty of color with him.
But the story's beautiful packaging doesn't make up for the way it has been commercialized. "The Giver" overlays Lowry's simple story with all the elements of a cookie-cutter teen dystopia in an attempt to appeal to fans of "The Hunger Games." Instead of an emphasis on the relationship between The Giver and Jonas and his path to discovering what it means to be human, there's the budding teen romance with childhood friend Fiona (Odeya Rush); the villainous and status-quo-obsessed Chief Elder (Meryl Streep), a minor character in the book; the thrilling chase sequences — all of which make "The Giver" fun to watch but unoriginal and forgettable.
Even the star-studded cast (including Taylor Swift, who appears briefly as the previous Receiver-to-be) can't make the movie pop. Streep ironically serves as the emotional powerhouse in the film despite her character's commitment to the society's dystopian views on emotion, but Bridges and Thwaites lack the chemistry to make the vital relationship between The Giver and Jonas seem deep and special. Thwaites has a much better time with the baby cast as Gabriel, a child to whom Jonas becomes particularly attached. Their scenes together are poignant and natural.
With not enough character development to stand alongside "Pleasantville," nor enough action to compete with "Divergent, "The Giver" is stuck somewhere in between, losing its heart along the way.
