Mixed military/civilian facility is boon for IT providers, tenants
The Naval Support Activity facility at the Algiers Naval Base in New Orleans is fighting its way back — first from being targeted for closure by the Defense Department and then from Hurricane Katrina's devastation. In the process, it is being transformed into a high-tech government complex called Federal City.
With the support of city, state and congressional leaders, the 200-acre project on the banks of the Mississippi River is opening new business opportunities for integrators and other government contractors for at least the next four to five years.
Retired Marine Corps Maj. Gen. David Mize is leading the Federal City project. Mize, a senior vice president at Apogen Technologies, is based in New Orleans. His initial voluntary effort and vision saved the facility from DOD's 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) initiative.
Then Katrina came, and although the base did not suffer severe damage, the project went into a six-month hiatus because of more pressing needs to restore homes, schools and municipal services.
But Federal City gained new life when the Algiers Development District Board awarded Apogen a modest six-month, $46,000 consulting contract to pay for Mize's services and get the project into high gear.
Mize calls it a win-win project that will provide work, housing and other amenities for about 4,500 base employees. He said local officials see it as a way to boost confidence in the overall recovery effort.
He said the project was initially expected to cost $200 million, including the cost of infrastructure improvements throughout the base. But because of BRAC, the Navy has reassigned many of its employees, "so we'll have a few less tenants than what our maximum would have been," Mize said. He said the project's current ballpark figure is $160 million.
Mize and his staff are formulating project requirements to prepare for a bid solicitation. "We have to line up our master developer, and we have to refine our requirements more precisely before we do that," he said.
Mize said Federal City officials are also negotiating with the Navy to lease its vacant offices.
The next step, he said, will be to distribute requests for qualifications in the next two months.
"That will be followed several months later by regular" requests for proposals, he added. "What we will be looking for probably is a master developer who would put together a team, and the technology organizations and components would be part of that team."
According to the development plan, he added, offices will have state-of-the-art technology. With multiple tenants sharing costs, the complex will have fewer overhead expenses, Mize said.
He predicts construction will begin next spring and the first tenants will move in by late 2008 or early 2009. "Probably the biggest initial tenant will be the Marine Corps Reserve headquarters," he said.
"What we'd like to do is not only have DOD [tenants] but also other related federal organizations here," Mize said. "We're excited about having a place where we can coordinate some security and homeland defense, both DOD" and the Homeland Security Department.
The Base Realignment and Closure Commission has set a deadline of Sept. 30, 2008, for construction of the Federal City project to begin at the Algiers Naval Base in New Orleans.
The Federal City plan involves:

My dh will put in and take out laundry, I fold and put away
Either will vacuum, usually me

I drop off kids for school/camp/daycare (dh is at work already), I will pick up son, he will pick up daughter
Either one will take kids to parties and activities
Not sure if I missed anything
We both work fulltime

I currently have no SO, so it's all my baby. When I did, though, cleaning/maintaining the house was pretty much an equal-opportunity thing. Car stuff and financial stuff was always separate (and would have been even if we'd been married) and kid-related stuff was done by whoever had the best availability at the time.
Cooking was mostly my thing because I'm a control freak in the kitchen. THe exception to that was Friday nights. The job I had at the time was really, really tense on Fridays and I always came home with a migraine, so I'd go straight to bed after work and he'd make his famous Friday Night George Foreman Quesadillas.
ETA: Dishes and laundry were mine by choice, too...I am a freak about laundry and it has to be perfect. No one else can make it that way!LOL And everyone in his house wanted to hand-wash dishes and I insist that they be dishwashered, so I got to do that, too.
I'm really much more of a controller than I usually give myself credit for being. ;-)

For the most part our household workload has shifted according to our work workload.
When I was a SAHM I did the majority of the houshold work (the exceptions being when our kids were at ages where they were very time consuning then in stepped in more).
When I went back to work I worked part time so I continued to do more.
When I started working full time then it became more even. At this point it is fairly close to even, not that we split each job equally but that the amount of time we spend on household chores is fairly even.
But there is still a shift according to work schedules. Two to three times a year DH has four to six week blocks where he puts in a lot of over time and during that time I take over more of the household chores. Oct to Dec is my busy time at work where I put in the over time and during that period he takes over more of the chores.
|Thu, 08-16-2007 - 10:42am
Working off your list
DH does the lawn work unless he is working over time, then I will mow and edge but will not weed eat.
We both do laundry, probably about a 60/40 (me/him) split
We both vacuum about a 50/50 spli
Both will mop but probably a 70/30 split
I usually cook
Wiping down counters gets done by whoever does dishes. I dust.
We both take out the garbage.
I do the bills.
We each call for our own appointments.
We each take care of rountine things (inspections/oil changes) on our own vehicles. If it a repair that he can do then he does it but these days most things have to be take to the shop.
You did miss dishes. It is about a 65/35 split.
The kid items you mentioned are not applicable to us any more. Btu I always consider those to be parenting, not household chores.
|Thu, 08-16-2007 - 10:47am
Thanks! Forgot the dishes!
I usually put them in the dishwasher or clean them, he will rarely. I put them away. He has put them away before and I can't find things for weeks-lol!!

Me: make the bed, do laundry (including folding and ironning--dh and Dylan put away their folded clothes), run the dishwasher. I also do the grocery shopping and dtaking dh's mom on errands. Dh makes his mom nervous when he takes her grocery shoppping. He tends to hover.
Dh: most of the dishwashing by hand, the yard work, walks the dogs, puts away his clean clothes.
Dylan: put his clean clothes away, puts the dirty ones in the laundry room when it's time to wash them, take out the trash/recycle containers to the curb and bring them in the next day, collect the mail, keeps his room neat, picks up his toys.
Everyone: feed the dogs, empty the trash cans in the house and take the recyclables to their containers, set and clear the table.
Dh and I share: cooking, vacuuming and dusting, cleaning the bathrooms.
I'm sure that I've forgotten chores.

A great conversation set with nice cushions

Very nice set. The color was a little darker than the bronze I expected. Still a very nice set at a good value. Shipping times are much greater than expected for an in stock item. My order took 7 weeks to receive.

A walk-off single from John Malloy brought home the winning run for the Florence Freedom (23-18) in a 6-5 victory over the Lake Erie Crushers (20-21) at Home of the Florence Freedom on Sunday.
Malloy racked up three RBIs on two hits for the Florence Freedom. He doubled in the fifth inning and singled in the ninth inning.
Peter Fatse had two extra-base hits for the Florence Freedom. He tripled in the second and third innings and singled in the ninth inning.
The Lake Erie Crushers couldn't get anything going so long as Brennan Flick was on the hill. The Lake Erie Crushers managed just one hit off of Flick, who allowed no earned runs, walked one and struck out three during his 2 1/3 innings of work.
Jonathan Kountis ended up on the wrong side of the pitching decision, charged with his second loss of the year. He lasted just two innings, walked one, struck out one, and allowed one run.
Fatse, Malloy and Eddie Rodriguez helped lead the Florence Freedom. They combined for seven hits and four RBIs.

Robert Neville (Will Smith) is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus that was unstoppable, incurable and manmade. Somehow immune, Neville is now the last human survivor in what is left of New York City and maybe the world. But he is not alone. He is surrounded by the Infected - victims of the plague who have mutated into carnivorous beings who can only exist in the dark and who will devour or infect anyone or anything in their path. For three years, Neville has spent his days scavenging for food and supplies and faithfully sending out radio messages, desperate to find any other survivors who might be out there. All the while, the Infected lurk in the shadows, watching Neville s every move, waiting for him to make a fatal mistake. Perhaps mankind s last, best hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus using his own immune blood. But his blood is also what The Infected hunt, and Neville knows he is outnumbered and quickly running out of time.
The Invasion tells the story of a mysterious epidemic that alters the behavior of human beings. When a Washington D.C. psychiatrist (Nicole Kidman) discovers the epidemic s origins are extraterrestrial, she must fight to protect her son, who may hold the key to stopping the escalating invasion.

The following are voices paying homage to Richard Matheson's classic novel. This is the experience of a dying mankind and the foretelling of a new world before we meet the legend, Robert Neville.

Greenville HotelsWhere else can you hike to peaceful turquoise lakes – with pine tree covered cliffs rising dramatically from the water's banks - before returning to a city bursting with youthful energy and activity? Contented chatter radiates from the classy restaurants, packed bars, and specialty shops that populate Main Street, but walk on for 2 minutes, and you'll swap downtown's lively clamor for the blissful harmony of rushing waterfalls, at the extraordinary Falls Park. South Carolina's Greenville puts the magnificent outdoor playgrounds of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Paris Mountain State Park within easy reach, while simultaneously inviting you to sample its unique brand of welcoming southern charm.Things to seeWhile the Blue Ridge Mountains' winding mountain bike trails, grassy hiking routes, and independent wineries – which sell bottles of oaky chardonnay wines – will undoubtedly tempt you away from the city at some point during your stay, don't neglect Greenville's downtown – which is just as compelling in its own way. The centrally located, and meticulously landscaped, Falls Park features a sweeping pedestrian suspension bridge, which almost seems to float on the air as it bananas above the cascading Reedy River. This secluded urban oasis gives even the busiest city-dwellers a chance to admire the beauty of its frothing sheets of water, and to feel its misty spray on their faces. Make sure you plan your visit for October if you want to experience the city at its most vibrant, by being part of the Fall for Greenville Festival. Makeshift stages pop up all along Main Street, which fills with music, laughter and the smells of sweet teriyaki chicken and frying shrimp during the celebrations. Hotels in GreenvilleForbes Magazine labeled Greenville as one of America's best value cities, so it's no surprise that there are plenty of affordable Greenville hotels to choose from. Stay in cheap and comfortable surroundings, with an in-room television, air conditioning, and free continental breakfast provided, or indulge yourself a little more by opting for a boutique spa hotel. Go for the second option, and you'll leave feeling brand new after sleeping in the softest of Queen-sized beds, and relishing in deeply soothing massages. If that sounds too indulgent, you could always take things back to basics and head out into the mountains. Rent a log cabin, and fall asleep with a smile on your face, breathing in the fresh scent of pine needles. Where to stayDowntown's hotels are ideal for night owls and those wanting some evening entertainment. Whether you prefer rocking to a cymbal smashing, guitar thrashing band - or absorbing the sounds of an orchestra's quivering strings – the Peace Center for the Performing Arts offers shows for all tastes. If you'd rather avoid downtown, then accommodation close to the airport - and the shopping haven of Haywood Mall - will fit you like a glove. You'll also be well placed to sample one of Greenville's many characterful museums – Roper Mountain Science Center. You can't help but feel inspired after looking deep into the sparkling heart of the galaxy, though the observatory's telescope. How to get to GreenvilleGreenville-Spartanburg International Airport is a convenient option if you're flying – sitting just 13 miles away from downtown – and offering services to most major East Coast and Midwest cities. Another option is to hop aboard Amtrak's 'Crescent' service, which links Greenville with New York in 15 hours, Atlanta in 3 hours, and New Orleans in 15 hours. If you have access to a car, you can drive to Charlotte in 1.5 hours, or be sunning yourself on one of Charleston's golden beaches less than 3 hours after setting off from Greenville.

On the Implausibility of the Death Star's Trash Compactor.
[Originally published January 10, 2002.]
I maintain that the trash compactor onboard the Death Star in Star Wars is implausible, unworkable, and moreover, inefficient.
The Trash Compactor Debate turns on whether the Death Star ejects its trash into space. I, for one, believe it does. Though we never see the Death Star ejecting its trash, we do see another Empire ship, the so-called Star Destroyer, ejecting its trash into space. I therefore see no reason to suspect that Empire protocol dictating that trash be ejected into space would not apply equally to all Empire spacecraft, including the Death Star.
The Death Star clearly has a garbage-disposal problem. Given its size and massive personnel, the amount of waste it generates — discarded food, broken equipment, excrement, and the like — boggles the imagination. That said, I just cannot fathom how an organization as ruthless and efficiently-run as the Empire would have signed off on such a dangerous, unsanitary, and shoddy garbage-disposal system as the one depicted in the movie.
Here are the problems, as I can ascertain them, with the Death Star's garbage-disposal system:
1. Ignoring the question of how Princess Leia could possibly know where the trash compactor is, or that the vent she blasts open leads to a good hiding place for the rescue crew, why are there vents leading down there at all? Would not vents leading into any garbage-disposal system allow the fetid smell of rotting garbage, spores, molds, etc., to seep up into the rest of the Death Star? Would not it have been more prudent for the designers of the Death Star to opt for a closed system, like a septic tank?
2. Why do both walls of the trash compactor move towards each other, rather than employing a one-movable-wall system that would thus rely on the anchored stability, to say nothing of the strength, of the other, non-moving wall, to crush trash more effectively?
3. Why does the trash compactor compact trash so slowly, and with such difficulty, once the resistance of a thin metal rod is introduced? Surely metal Death Star pieces are one of the main items of trash in need of compacting. It thus stands to reason that the trash compactor should have been better designed to handle the problem of a skinny piece of metal. (And while I hate to be the sort of person who says I told you so, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that a one-movable-wall system would have improved performance.)
4. Why does the trash compactor only compact trash sideways? Once ejected into space, wouldn't the flattened, living-room-sized, and extremely solid panes of trash that result from such a primitive, unidirectional trash compactor pose serious hazards for Empire starships in the vicinity?
5. And what of the creature that lives in the trash compactor? Presumably, the creature survives because the moving walls do not extend all the way to the floor of the room, where the liquid is. After all, if the walls reached the floor, the creature would be killed each time trash is compacted. The design employed on the Death Star must allow the organic trash to filter down to the bottom, where the parasitic worm-creature devours it. But what happens when heavier pieces of non-organic trash fall down there? Would such trash not get wedged under the doors, causing them to malfunction? Do stormtroopers have to confront the creature each time they retrieve pieces of un-compacted trash?
6. Why not have separate systems for organic and inorganic waste, thus allowing full compaction of the inorganics and a closed sanitary system for the organics?
7. Why does the Empire care, anyway, about reducing its organic garbage output? Are we to believe that the architects of the Death Star, a group of individuals bent on controlling the entire known universe, are also concerned about environmental issues? Would organic garbage rot in space? So what? Furthermore, why has the Empire gone to the trouble of acquiring a frightening parasitic worm-creature and having it eat all organic trash, especially given the aforementioned flaws in the design of the compactor and overall maintenance hassles?
8. Personally, were it up to me, I would have designed special garbage ships instead of employing a crude, cumbersome, and inefficient (to say nothing of unsanitary) compactor-worm combo to deal with the trash.
9. If the Empire insists on ejecting trash into space, why do they bother compacting it? Space is infinite, is it not? In such an environment, it hardly matters what size the trash is. In fact, a persuasive argument can be made that it's actually better for the trash to take up more space, so that it appears on radar systems as something for Empire ships to avoid. Compacted trash creates smaller chunks of harder trash that would undoubtedly cause serious damage to Empire starships. And needless to say, damage to starships would, in turn, create yet more hassles and headaches for the Empire.
Please understand, gentle reader, I am all for creating hassles and headaches for the Empire. I just doubt that the Empire would have created so many for itself. Q.E.D.

Please Wait - Updating Your Shopping Cart
Bianchi AccuMold® Universal Radio Cases feature patented AccuMold® that is custom molded to fit your gear.
Connecting parts are made of plastic not metal. I broke mine just trying to hook it to my belt. I really don't think this product will hold up in fight or chase.
Case is really nice. This seller charges about $18 more than other sellers, but I learned that after buying. Compare prices before buying.
This product can take a lot of stress and still last. The only bad thing is the elastic band that snaps the radio in wears out.
Mine should have broken a few years ago, but it's still working and swivels. The bottom edges are a little worn out from rubbing clothing/seatbelts, but definately good quality!

text: The Role of Hip Recall Lawyers When DePuy Orthopaedics announced its latest hip substitute recall on the ASR XL Acetabular System last month, it only added to a checklist of recalls that previously happened. DePuy, a subsidiary organization of Johnson & Johnson, now shares a spot on the 2010 hip system recall record with manufacturers Zimmer and Stryker. This has been very disheartening for people that have acquired any of the hip units of these suppliers; however, it is even a lot more troubling for the seniors that have been implanted with the real recalled products. The five primary products that have been recalled are the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System, the DePuy ASR Hip Resurfacing System, the Stryker Trident Hemispherical Acetabular Cup, the Zimmer Durom Cup and the Stryker Trident PSL. Certainly, these companies are all massive gamers in the hip replacement company, particularly Stryker and DePuy hip alternative products, so there are virtually tens of thousands of folks who may possibly be affected by this recall. The unlucky truth is that a lot of have previously sustained serious injuries due to some of these recalled gadgets. That is, of course, why the units have been recalled in the first place. Because of this patients have the right to file a lawsuit and hire one of hip recall lawyers to assist them. It's unsurprising for individuals to be unfamiliar with the correct kind of implant that they have. Yes, it is a policy to discuss the implant and the procedure prior to the actual surgical procedure; however, numerous individuals have a tendency to set all of trust in their physicians and let this information go in a single ear and out the other. Therefore, when it comes down to it, many simply can't bear in mind the correct model that they have implanted. Symptoms consist of swelling, persistent ache, clicking, popping, implant dislocation or loosening, and hip fracture. Individuals that are encountering these signs now should surely seek advice from with their doctor to verify the sort of implant method they have, and to find out what can be carried out to fix the issue. Of course, that is not the only individual that a patient should call. It's often clever to get in touch with experienced hip recall lawyers in situations like these. Seasoned hip recall lawyers can aid individuals by gathering and preserving essential evidence and by filing all of the irritating paperwork for their claim.

Sources: Marlins' asking price high
While the Miami Marlins have made it clear that pitcher Josh Johnson is available in a trade, the team's initial asking price for the All-Star right-hander is so high it's generated skepticism within baseball circles over whether he will be moved by Tuesday's non-waiver trade deadline.
Several baseball sources told ESPN.com the Marlins are asking for each team's top two or three prospects in every trade scenario involving Johnson.
"They're asking for a ton," an American League general manager said.
Another baseball source said the Marlins' demands are so exorbitant that their trade proposals are basically "non-starters" for clubs interested in having a dialogue.
More From SweetSpot
The Miami Marlins should hold on to their ace Josh Johnson, writes David Schoenfield. Blog
The Rangers, Blue Jays, Orioles, Angels, Braves and Red Sox are among numerous teams interested in dealing for Johnson. Indications are that Miami's talks with clubs have focused on such elite prospects as Jurickson Profar, Mike Olt and Martin Perez in Texas; Dylan Bundy and Manny Machado in Baltimore; and Travis D'Arnaud and Anthony Gose of Toronto.
Several baseball officials have said the Marlins are looking for a haul similar to what Texas acquired from Atlanta in July 2007, when the Rangers landed Elvis Andrus, Matt Harrison, Neftali Feliz and Jarrod Saltalamacchia as part of a seven-player trade that brought Mark Teixeira to Atlanta.
Now that Cole Hamels has re-signed with Philadelphia and the Cubs' Matt Garza is apparently off the market because of health concerns, Zack Greinke, Johnson and Ryan Dempster are the most prominent pitchers available. Unlike Greinke and Dempster, who are free agents this winter and are available as two-month "rentals," Johnson is under contract for $13.75 million in 2013 and won't hit the free-agent market until after next season.
ESPN.com's Jayson Stark quoted an anonymous baseball official Wednesday as saying the chances are "95 percent" that Johnson remains in Miami.
The Marlins, 14 games out of first place in the NL East with a 45-53 record, have had an eventful July regardless of whether they move Johnson. They traded second baseman Omar Infante and pitcher Anibal Sanchez to Detroit earlier this week for pitcher Jacob Turner and two minor leaguers, and shipped Hanley Ramirez and Randy Choate to the Dodgers on Wednesday in exchange for pitcher Nathan Eovaldi and a minor leaguer.
Ramirez, Infante, Sanchez and Choate are making a combined $28.5 million this year, so the two deals took a major chunk out of the Marlins' $111 million Opening Day payroll. The Marlins also shed the additional $31.5 million owed to Ramirez in the 2013-2014 seasons.
