The Long Haul Test – Crossing the Pacific in Boeing's 787 Dreamliner

For my flight to Tokyo from Seattle, I rode in business class. It was roomy and comfortable, with no fighting over the arm rests, plenty of room to spread out a laptop and a lay-flat bed that even a six-footer could enjoy. Everyone sits in a relatively private "pod" with a large table in front and a smaller one at the side. Business class is the one place you might actually want the middle seat — it's got a small table on each side for added space, and there's nobody next to you.
The other half of the airplane is filled with 112 economy seats, and that's where I sat for the flight home. The trend in economy is thinner, firmer seats, which saves space and weight. "Thinner and firmer" might sound to you like "smaller and harder," but the seats are comfortable. The seat pitch (leg room) on the ANA 787 is a relatively spacious 34 inches, and the seats don't actually recline. Instead, the flat part you sit on slides forward and back. In this aspect the seats aren't quite as comfortable as a conventional reclining seat, but the upside is you, not the passenger in front of you, determines how much leg room you have.
LED lighting is among the more subtle features. On most planes, cabin lighting is binary — on or off. A 787 crew can choose from a wide range of colors and brightness levels in the cabin. Time to sleep? No problem. Lighting can emulate the nighttime sky. When it's time to wake, you can rise and shine to a simulated sunrise. Gone is the jarring change from pitch black to bright fluorescent. Instead the cabin fades from nearly black to a dark blue to a warm shade of orange. It's a cool trick said to help keep your internal clock in sync. It's hard to say if that actually works, but the gentle transition from dark to light is enough all by itself.
Another problem with sleeping in conventional aircraft is there is always at least one person who opens the window shade, blinding everybody with bright light. The 787 eliminates that by ditching the window shades. Instead, passengers and crew control the tint of the window, selecting one of five settings from from crystal clear to super dark. When everyone aboard is catching Zs, the crew limits the tint to a relatively dark level. During my flight to Tokyo, the windows and lights were turned down against the bright sun outside, but it's still easy to enjoy the view.
Those windows, by the way, are about 1.3 times larger than those in other airplanes. It feels like you're looking through a window, not a porthole. It improves the view and makes the cabin feel bigger, even for those stuck in the middle of the airplane. And speaking of windows, ANA put one in each lavatory, even if takes fair bit of contortion to enjoy the view while, uh, taking care of business. And don't worry — those windows feature shades for privacy on the ground. Another unusual feature, for an airplane, is the bidet with three settings: back, front and soft.
One of the most highly hyped features is the hardest to analyze. The composite fuselage allows airlines to pressurize the 787 to a higher level, resulting in a lower cabin altitude experienced by the passenger. Most airliners are pressurized to simulate an altitude of around 8,000 feet, whereas the Dreamliner is pressurized to 6,000 feet. That means the passenger gets a bit more oxygen with each breath, which should help prevent headaches and other ailments. Further improving comfort, the humidity is doubled from eight to 16 percent.
It's difficult to say with certainty whether the improvements in cabin air will be noticed by every passenger. That said, although I was groggy from the time change when after arriving in Tokyo, I didn't have the dry cough, irritated nose or other problems that typically accompany a long-haul flight. I heard other passengers make the same comment. Though we were aware of the placebo possibility since we were told we would feel better at the end of the flight.
I can say with certainty the Dreamliner is much quieter than other airliners. I was above the wing en route to Tokyo. And despite the fact this isn't usually the noisiest spot, it was noticeably quieter during take-off and cruise. It was the same story on the flight home when I sat behind the engines, which is usually the noisiest place on many airplanes. After 10 hours in the air, the significant reduction in engine noise is appreciated.
I can't tell you how many times I heard Boeing engineers, designers and executives sing the 787's praises. At some point you just drift off a bit when told for the 100th time how it would improve the passenger experience. Now, I'm not going to tell you a flight aboard a Dreamliner will change your life. But I can tell you the experience is nicer, even in economy class. The 787 is an airplane people will choose to fly on if possible and frequent fliers might even adjust their schedules for it any time it's available.

An attempt to burn oil and gas spewing from a well blow-out in Assumption Parish is on-hold for the night.
The well, which blew out Wednesday, is in a sugar cane field between LA 1 and Highway 70 in Paincourtville.
After Friday's attempt to catch the blow-out on fire, by setting sugar cane on fire, failed, authorities spent an hour discussing what has worked so far, and what could work next.
State Master Trooper Bryan Zeringue says the burn did help clear a path for the crew's next attempt, but the weather is what they need help with the most to get the go-ahead for another attempt.
They'll make that decision Saturday morning.

President Obama's executive order, now two weeks old, "removes barriers to responsible scientific research involving human embryotic stem cells" But what does responsible mean? But what guidelines should govern how stem cells are used, moving forward? The order was met with joy by researchers – who now have more streams for funding – and a mandate to put science first.
Scientists and ethicists from all over the country gather today in New Haven for StemCONN 2009—an international stem cell research symposium. Today on Where We Live, symposium organizers and experts join us to talk shop. What does new federal policy mean for a state like Connecticut, already heavily invested in stem cell research?

In mid-March his mother visited. She barely recognized him. "I just started crying," says Nikki Moffett.
Circuit Court Judge Mark Leban was also shocked by Moffett's appearance. On March 28, the same day the short-order cook was sentenced for violating probation, Leban recommended Moffett receive a medical evaluation. Court records indicate the judge was aware Moffett had "skin problems, chest pains, and breathing problems." He also had contracted a staph infection.
Just days later, Moffett had a seizure and his face was swollen beyond belief, court records show. He went back to court — but corrections officers refused to bring him inside the courtroom because of the way he looked. Attorney Scott Pettus pointed out that his client hadn't yet seen a doctor, so Leban sent his bailiff into the holding cell. After hearing from the bailiff that Moffett was indeed ailing, Leban released the inmate on the spot. The cook immediately hobbled to Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he stayed two weeks.
Now almost four months after his release, Moffett spends his days in front of the television set in his mother's tidy Pembroke Pines condo. He hasn't shaken the staph infection and has another problem on top of that: Stevens-Johnson syndrome, a potentially deadly skin condition that — according to doctors — is likely related to the medicine he was given in jail.
Moffett lost 50-plus pounds and is just now beginning to gain them back. His hands and feet are tough and leathery like the pads on a dog's paws. He itches constantly. His hair has fallen out in clumps. He has spots on his kidneys, trouble hearing in one ear, and looks 50 years old. Moffett has been back to the hospital seven times since his two-week stay, and has racked up $75,000 in medical bills, none of which he can pay. His mom has also contracted the staph infection.
Moffett says he plans to sue. "The way they treated me was like a dog," he says while sticking his hand down the side of his pants to scratch his upper thigh.
Kippo Pruitt was 55 when he landed at the Metro West Detention Center March 31, charged with selling marijuana near a school.
A Vietnam veteran with an honorable discharge, Pruitt had racked up several charges over the years, from the very minor (possession of a shopping cart) to the more serious (dealing cocaine). Along with his demons, Pruitt struggled with diabetes. He needed insulin to survive. When he walked into the jail, his four daughters hoped this would be his last time behind bars.
Over the next month, Pruitt's health inexplicably declined. One inmate reported seeing him arguing with a nurse over a scheduled insulin dose. He also complained of chest pains. During visiting hours, a family friend saw Pruitt and reported back that he "looked sick," according to his daughter, 19-year-old Ke'Tara.
On May 11, Pruitt collapsed in his cell. He was taken to Kendall Regional Medical Center and shackled to a bed. He was comatose by May 17, when Ke'Tara and her three sisters discovered their father was sick. "Why didn't anyone notify us to say he was in the hospital?" Ke'Tara wonders. "They had my number, because I had called the jail clinic to ask about his health."
Pruitt died May 21. The official reason: "cerebral intraparenchymal hemorrhage." In other words, a stroke. The medical examiner deemed the cause of death natural. Pruitt's children suspect he wasn't given the proper dose of insulin.
"My father was absolutely okay until he got to the jail," says Ke'Tara.
Rodolfo Ramos's case is frighteningly like that of Kippo Pruitt. One day in January — his niece, Yeisleny, doesn't remember exactly when — she got a call from her uncle. He spoke in a quick, excited voice. "Los elefantes quieren comerme," he said. The elephants want to eat me.
"What?" Yeisleny said.
"¡Escuche, escuche!" he exclaimed. Listen, listen! Yeisleny didn't hear anything.
Another inmate got on the phone. Ramos's friend "Camagüey" sounded sad and worried. "Your uncle is hallucinating," he told her. "You should call the clinic."
Ramos was born in Camagüey, Cuba — like his jailhouse buddy — April 16, 1965. In the decades that followed, his father and sister moved to Miami. Ramos got a visa and joined the family in 1995. They all lived in a small house in Hialeah, a few blocks north of the Westland Mall.
But for Ramos, life in many ways was more difficult in Miami than it had been in Cuba. He worked for a spell as a massage therapist and then as a delivery driver. In 1996 he was picked up for drunk driving, but those charges were later dropped. The following year he was convicted of larceny and served a few months in jail.
For a few years it seemed Ramos had gotten his act together. He would take his young niece Yeisleny to the movies and go to happy hour with friends. He began working at a Hialeah warehouse, again as a delivery truck driver. Although a doctor had diagnosed him with diabetes, Ramos had little problem controlling his blood sugar or weight, probably because of the exercise he got at work and his love of salsa dancing. At six feet one inch, Ramos weighed a respectable 190 pounds.

Whewwww-eeee! What a fun draft. A good four-and-a-half hours after the draft start time I had picked my 17th player, and I think I really like my team. But with a lot of picks, I did feel a bit like Jerry Lundegaard in Fargo trying to defend them; "it's a real good deal this one, real good!" Thanks again for filling out the league loyal Razzball Nation, and again thanks to our friends at RotoGold.com and the TDBSportsNetwork (which you can catch me on their "The Double Bonus" Show throughout the season and from last Wednesday) for helping class up the joint.
So if you missed the post launching the league, the Razzball Elite Dynasty League had our inaugural draft last night, an all-out brawl of an Auction draft with some really interesting bidding wars. Looking at you Ben from RotoGold and you pumping up Giannis Antetokounmpo for $15 late! The league is 20 teams, 12 starters (two of every position and two UTIL) and five bench spots. Using my abacus over here, that's 340 players owned. Neeedless to say, things got really interesting once we were in the bottom end of starters. There is no inflation, we voted on a true Dynasty application, with lifetime contracts. Free agent pickups all must be done with your $100 yearly FAAB, and those players can be kept on a $1 lifetime contract. So FAAB bidding will be a critical element through the season.
Please, blog, may I have some more?

Take a look at the public art of Paris-based Swiss artist Felice Varini. The paintings have one vantage point where its form can be viewed. From any other angle, the illusion fades into abstract lines and fragmented pieces. His anamorphic illusions can be found on a variety of urban settings both indoor and outdoors.
Varini has been creating illusions of flat graphics superimposed on three dimensional spaces since 1979 using the same eye-deceiving technique called anamorphosis. The complete shapes can only be seen when viewed at certain angles, otherwise the viewer will only see some random broken pieces.
Over the course of 30+ years, Varini has created many great optical illusions, however the most remarkable work is probably "Cercle et suite d'éclats" where the artist took on the challenge of working at the scale of the village, superimposing perfect circles on the town of Vercorin in the Swiss Alps.

This topic contains 6 replies, has 3 voices, and was last updated by Jitendra Mishra 1 year, 2 months ago.
December 23, 2013 at 6:38 am #143611
I have to start a new topic here as I could not find anything regarding this question:
could you, please, tell me if the tag clouds widget (with categories, rather than tags)
is responsive in your theme? It doesn't seem to be as there are big white spaces between
some of the category links. I am not providing a link because I took this widget off.
This happens on small screens – the links are being pushed down in random manner.
Hence my question is this widget can be made responsive.
Thank you.December 23, 2013 at 9:36 am #143632By default the widget boxes are responsive by nature. But if you have made some customizations regarding this then it might behave as it. So we really need to see your site for going into this problem.
December 23, 2013 at 7:02 pm #143677As Jitendra, we really need to see a site. But if you're comfortable with CSS, then you'll want to work with either of these. I believe it's the white-space property you are wanting to adjust, but we really need to see a site.
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_word-wrap.aspYou might also need to adjust the font size as well.
December 27, 2013 at 10:57 am #143918Thank you for the replies. I think the problem is more to do with certain phones, specifically Android phones such as HTC or Samsung Galaxy ACE. There is no problem with the tagcloud on iPhones and Blackberries.
For example, it would be good to know if anyone has experienced the following:
the Go button (#searchsubmit button) – there is a little hollow square to the left of the button which seems to show up on Android phones – not on iPhones and Blackberries (the square looks like something we sometimes see in Notepad in place of a line brake or carriage return).If anyone has experienced this, would you know what it is?
Thanks.December 27, 2013 at 12:24 pm #143930Sorry, I don't believe anyone else has ever mentioned that. But we could be interpreting what you're saying to be something totally different. That's why we need an actual link where this is occurring to test.
December 29, 2013 at 8:01 am #144092Thanks. It appears that the problem is to do with a certain CSS rule in your theme. Here is a link which deals with this issue:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8797706/android-displays-rectangle-instead-of-white-spaceI would be grateful if you could tell me where I can safely remove this rule so that it doesn't affect anything else.
Many thanks.
December 29, 2013 at 10:02 am #144108It is very difficult task to tell you anything about this issue without going through your site as we are totally blank about which is causing the problem.

The Newspaper Paywall Delusion
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- When I first moved to Atlanta three decades ago, I was told the city had one "monopoly" newspaper.
I had to laugh. I came here to work for a competitor to that newspaper, a weekly business paper. We also had a legal newspaper, an entertainment newspaper, a gay newspaper, papers for towns or counties in the metro area and several newspapers focused solely on African American people. Since then, we've had sports papers, Hispanic papers, even a local Korean paper.
Yet, friends who worked at the daily, mass-marketed, mass-distributed paper insisted they held a news monopoly. It was a sense of entitlement I found galling. They were telling themselves something that wasn't true.
That false sense of entitlement lives on in this nonsense about paywalls. The New York Times (NYT) claims great financial success with its paywall. News Corp.'s (NWS) Wall Street Journal does, too. The Washington Post (WPO) is about to erect one.
Never mind that Internet circulation could decline 90% with a paywall, as Monday Note warned two years ago. The same is true today: Most papers today use "metered" paywalls that allow a little free use, but even these are not halting the industry's slide. As Michael Wolff wrote recently in The Guardian, they don't solve the problem of losing younger readers, or ad revenue. A Columbia Journalism Review article from last June says the Dallas Morning-News circulation dropped 9 million/month after it instituted a paywall. The Memphis Commercial Appeal saw a 30% decrease in traffic to get 1,000 paywall subscribers. The Columbia Tribune lost 25% of traffic and a shift to a local, free rival in order to secure $80k in revenue. In a recent profile of Henry Blodget, who runs a competitor to this site, Ken Auletta of The New Yorker repeats the industry script that it's inevitable, that "content must be paid for," that "you can't give it away." Nonsense. Newspapers "gave it away" in print for a century. The price never covered more than the cost of distribution. What do publishers think is going to happen on the Internet when they all erect paywalls? Do they think the news won't happen, that it won't be published, that people won't somehow find out about it? The way they run their paywalls shows this isn't so. Newspapers syndicate their stories to other Web sites, which aren't behind paywalls. They talk about their stories on TV. Markets, like nature, abhor a vacuum, and when a local newspaper goes behind a paywall, the TV stations and all the other specialty publications in town fill that vacuum. Maybe their stuff isn't "as good." Maybe it's not "authoritative." But the nature of news is that it's widely reported, that everyone knows it. Writers want readers, the more the better, and will naturally gravitate to sites with high circulation. You can't hide the news by putting it behind a paywall, any more than you can control a market by claiming to be a "newspaper monopoly."

WEST MEAD TWP. -- An elderly Meadville area man died in a house fire this morning. Meadville firefighters pulled the body of 82-year-old Robert Irwin from his home at 20050 Gill Street, in West Mead Township.
West Mead #1 Rescue Chief Jayme Corey says Meadville Central arrived on scene first.
"They got here first and made an interior breach into the house out of the window, on what we call the B side of the structure. Unfortunately, he was deceased."
The fire was discovered by Irwin's stepdaughter, Patsy Irwin, who saw smoke coming from a window when she went to check on him this morning.
Rescue Chief Corey says Meadville Central always responds first on entrapment calls.
"We always have Meadville Central -- the paid department -- come originally when there is entrapment, because they are a paid department and they are always on call."
Crawford County 911 reports firefighters from West Mead 1, West Mead 2, Meadville Central, Vernon Township, Vernon Central, Saegertown, Cochranton and East Mead responded. Conneaut Lake and Hayfield were on standby.
Toxicology and carbon monoxide tests are pending on the body. A State Police fire marshal is investigating the cause.

Spag's was, from 1934 to 2004, a discount department store on Route 9 in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts. The store was considered an early pioneer of discount retailing and was notable for its longtime resistance to accepting charge cards (until 1992)[1] and offering plastic shopping bags (late 1996)[2] and shopping carts (introduced in 1998)[3].
Contents |
Anthony "Spag" Borgatti (1916–1996) opened Shrewsbury Battery and Tire Service in 1934. In 1939 the store expanded and the name was changed to Spag's Hardware Supply. Spag's was a local sponsor of the broadcast of The New Yankee Workshop and The Victory Garden on PBS local station WGBH.
A second Spag's store operated from late 1999[4] until the end of 2001 in Springfield, Massachusetts[5].
When Spag died in 1996, his daughters took over[6] until 2002, when they sold it to Building 19.[7] The location became Spag's 19, and in September 2004 Building 19 owner Jerry Ellis said the store was not profitable in its current format. Spag's merchandise and operations were converted to Building 19's format.[8] October 3, 2004 was the last day of business for Spag's. For much of its lifecycle, the roof of the main building had the name "SPAGS" written across the east roof, but this was painted over in 2005. Other businesses surrounding Spag's, including The Ground Round family-style restaurant[9], have since closed due to lack of business. In June 2007 tentative plans were announced to close Spags 19 and demolish the building to make way for an affordable housing project.[10]
On June 28, 2012, the ILS-29 Instrument Approach Procedure into Worcester Regional Airport was updated to honor contributions made by Spag and Olive Borgatti to aviation in Worcester. The "Initial Approach Fix", located just south of the store location, has been renamed from PUMPP to SPAGS. [11]
Spag's was originally one central building, later named "the warehouse" when the store opened the Spag's Sports Shop[12]—featuring sports, hunting, and fishing equipment—and the Spag's Olde School House, which contained household tools and items such as pencils, nursing wear, and photography accessories. The Olde School House was closed for storage[13] after being sold to Building 19 but was reopened for a short while in 2003, before being closed permanently. The Sports Shop closed in 2004 after the store officially became Building 19. The only remaining building, other than the main building (which saw renovations in the mid 1990s), is the Garden Shop, which sits adjacent to the main building.
Reflecting the Borgatti family's religious values, the store was not open on Sunday. This policy changed in the 1990s.
A key to the success of the original operation was Spag's use of cash. The store did not accept credit cards, and Mr. Borgatti was able to purchase truckloads of inventory at low prices by offering immediate payment in cash. Much of the inventory was stored in the delivery trailers, parked on the Spag's lot.
The term "Spag's mentality" was coined to describe the thrifty mindset found among the store's customers. Depending on the context it is used in, it can carry a positive or negative connotation. One example of the Spag's mentality is the sheer number of shoppers that would visit for the store's annual spring tomato seedling giveaway.[14] Beginning in 1957, the store would give 25 tomato seedlings to visitors; in 1985, the store gave away one million seedlings.[15] The prices of many goods at Spag's were written on them in indelible black Magic Marker, and another aspect of the Spag's mentality was to display the handwritten price proudly, as proof of one's resourcefulness as a shopper.
Spag's often carried only one or two brands of a particular product, and, because of the store's popularity in New England and central Massachusetts, brands that are not market leaders in other areas of the country are household brands in the Spag's districts. Such is the case with Ban Deodorant and Good as Gold Coffee.
With the creation of Spag's Supply, Inc, in 1966, "Mrs. Spag" Olive Borgatti became president of the company, Spag the treasurer. She served as the company's president until her death in 1990. Spag assumed the position of president briefly before retiring the position to his daughter, Carol Borgatti Cullen, who served as the company president until shortly before the store's sale to Building 19. The other Borgatti daughters, Jean M. Borgatti and Sandra Borgatti Travinski, also served in upper management positions for Spag's.

Ferrari rivals confident ahead of Hungaroring race
Given his current contractual dispute, it is deeply ironic that Jenson Button may stand his best chance yet of scoring his and the BAR team's maiden victory in Hungary this weekend.
While the ambient and track temperatures are expected to be sizzling, the 24 year-old Englishman is expecting a cool reception from his team after announcing that he wants to go to Williams in 2005. The matter will go before the Contracts Recognition Board, but after their first face-to-face meeting since the announcement, at the beginning of this week, Button and team principal David Richards are both determined to achieve their best results over the remaining six races. The Hungaroring should suit the BAR and its punchy Honda engine, and there will be some technical updates on the car after the summer break.
However, both Renault and McLaren also fancy their chances here. Last year, of course, Fernando Alonso ran away and hid to score his first Grand Prix victory, and there is no reason why the updated Renault R24 should not be equally as competitive this year. It is going to be a special race for me I think, the Spaniard says. This was always one of my favourite circuits anyway, and it is a nice feeling to look back and remember last year. I am feeling confident: we were fast in Hungary in 2003, we have been fast with maximum downforce already this season in Monaco, so I hope we can have a good race, and maybe be in with a chance to win.
Both Alonso and team mate Jarno Trulli will have the latest RS24D variant of the RS24 V10 to race, which has revised cylinder heads and related parts in its top end and represents a small performance step over the final RS24B which raced in Hockenheim (the RS24C was a project that did not proceed beyond dynamometer testing). McLaren have clearly turned a corner in recent races and Hockenheim showed just how competitive the heavily revised MP4-19B has become. Kimi Raikkonen and David Coulthard must also be viewed as potential winners.
Williams have had a tough time of late, and Ralf Schumacher will still not be fit enough to join team mate Juan Pablo Montoya in Budapest. The German will probably miss Spa, too, so his place will once again be taken by test driver Antonio Pizzonia, who will be hoping to make a big impression to retain his test role in 2005.
Why leave Ferrari so far down the order? Only because the Michelin runners fancy their chances after last years race, where Bridgestone struggled so badly. This time around, however, engineer Kees van der Grint is completely confident that the Japanese companys tyres will be equal to the task, and Michael Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello not only start as favourites but could well wrap up the constructors world championship this weekend.
Sauber were due to given English DTM racer Gary Paffett, the reigning European F3 champion, a run in their C23 on Friday, but this has now been postponed and the team will field only its two usual cars for Giancarlo Fisichella and Felipe Massa, with some further aerodynamic refinements.
Jaguar were very competitive in Hungary last year and come to this years race full of optimism even though they have finally accepted that star driver Mark Webber will be going to Williams next season. There are updates on this car, too, so a repeat performance in what is a better machine would not be a surprise.
Toyota are also hoping for a strong showing, after Olivier Panis reported that the TF104B was a major improvement at Hockenheim. The car has a lower centre of gravity, better aerodynamics and a more potent engine. What it doesnt have is Cristiano da Matta in the cockpit, as the Brazilian will be replaced by fellow countryman Ricardo Zonta, the teams regular test driver.
Jordan and Minardi continued unchanged, with Nick Heidfeld and Giorgio Pantano, and Gianmaria Bruni and local hero Zsolt Baumgartner, respectively. Baumgartner will be celebrating the anniversary of his Grand P debut here last year for Jordan.
Oddly enough, the Hungaroring is very similar to Monte Carlo, insofar as it demands maximum downforce and presents very few overtaking opportunities. Cars need good balance and precise turn in to be fully competitive. Efficient cooling is also imperative, not just because of the high ambient and track temperatures but because the short straights give engines little time to cool down. This is true for the tyres, too, as there are under almost constant side loadings. The surface of the track is often dusty and offers low grip, so cars tend to slide around more than usual and tyre degradation is correspondingly high. Wear will thus be a critical factor when teams make their choice on Friday.
The race starts at 1400 local time (1200 GMT), and will run over 70 laps.

A Temporary Road Opens
by Diana Stricker | Sep 6, 2011 11:06 am
(11) Comments | Commenting has been closed | E-mail the Author
The 400 families in Branford's Indian Neck and Pawson Park neighborhoods were nearly stranded when Irene's relentless storm surge undermined part of Linden Avenue, the only road leading to the peninsula.
Homes along Linden Avenue vibrated from the hurricane's waves, and huge rocks were hurled up onto the roadway.
Fortunately, one lane of the coastal road remained stable, and town crews were able to provide a temporary fix by cutting another lane through neighboring lawns. But even when the road is restored to pre-storm conditions, the town is facing costly repairs to ensure the road will be passable in future storms.
"Beyond a doubt, Linden Avenue will be the most costly project in Branford," First Selectman Anthony "Unk" DaRos told the Eagle yesterday. "It will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars just to secure the road. Contractors have been to the scene all week and work will begin very soon."
DaRos expects to receive proposals from contractors this week. He is also hopeful that Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) money will be available for the project, since the entire state was declared a disaster area. He said 710 feet of the road need immediate attention.
Meanwhile, Branford is continuing to recover from the Aug. 28 tropical storm that left 100 percent of the town without power and caused significant damage to a number of homes. DaRos said electricity had been restored to all but 50 homes by yesterday afternoon—- more than a week after the storm. Those homes have isolated problems, he said. The Branford School District, which cancelled the Sept. 1 start-up of school, will hold the first day of classes tomorrow, Sept. 7.
Town officials and work crews spent the past week aiding those impacted by Irene. In terms of infrastructure, the Linden Avenue roadway sustained the most extensive damage.
"We're looking for proposals for a long-term solution so this won't happen again," said town engineer Janice Plaziak in regard to Linden Avenue. "We want to look ahead to the future with permanent repairs. That road is the only way in and out of that whole neighborhood."
The peninsula is particularly vulnerable to coastal storms and was significantly damaged by the deadly 1938 hurricane and again by Hurricane Gloria in 1985. After Gloria eroded portions of Linden Avenue, the town backfilled the slope leading up to the road and built a bed of rocks beneath the road. Seawalls were constructed in some areas.
"What was there didn't work," Plaziak said. "The road suffered a greater impact from this storm."
DaRos and Plaziak accompanied FEMA officials as they toured the hard-hit areas last week, including Beckett Avenue in Short Beach. "FEMA felt Linden Avenue was a significant impact for the town," Plaziak said.
Plaziak said the initial repairs (see photo) were covered under emergency authorization, but that any long-term solution will require traditional approvals and permitting by town boards and the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP).
"I'm awaiting proposals," Plaziak said. "We're taking it one step at a time now." The proposals will be analyzed in terms of time and costs, and then designs would have to be drafted. Right now, no one knows how expensive or extensive the project could be.
In the meantime, Plaziak is hoping to backfill the slope once again, open the roadway and restore the lawns. She said a permanent solution may involve creating higher seawalls or terraced seawalls. Some seawalls in the area were damaged and others remained intact but were useless.
"The waves actually went above the seawalls," Plaziak said. "The coastal surge was the biggest problem here…It was greater than I would have anticipated. The reach of the wave action was surprising to me. It wasn't even a hurricane…it was a tropical storm."
Watching The Storm Surge
Helen and Tracy Selmon had front-seat seats as the storm carved out the road in front of their Linden Shores home, which faces Long Island Sound.
"It's amazing to see a storm on the water," Helen Selmon said. "When the surge hit you could feel the whole house vibrate."
Her husband Tracy, an engineer, said it wasn't the wind that vibrated the homes. Itt was the "seismic shock" of the waves pounding the shoreline. Their home, which sits about 20 feet above the water, sustained minor damage but their electricity was out until late Friday.
When the storm subsided, Helen and Tracy joined neighbors as they examined the damage to the road. They later watched as crews created a temporary lane out of their front lawns.
Helen Selmon said she and her husband are pleased with the town's response but are eager for a permanent fix. "They need to do something," she said.
Despite the storm and the road problems, Helen Selmon said they wouldn't consider living anywhere else. "You can't trade the view, even with the storms."
Louise LaMontagne, president of the Linden Shore District, also had a first-hand observation of the storm's wrath.
"I went down there at the height of the storm," LaMontagne said. "The waves carved out under the structure of the road." Although she has lived in the Indian Neck area most of her life, she has never seen that much damage to their only access road. "I was heartbroken," she said. "The water side [of the road] is completely inaccessible."
She is very appreciative of the town's response. "What they've done so far looks good," LaMontagne said. "Safety is our number one concern. We have all the confidence in the world that town will keep us safe and fix it right."
The Linden Shore District, which was formed in 1959 as an erosion control board, has jurisdiction over the trees, beaches, and recreational areas along Linden Avenue. It includes residents from nearly half the streets on the peninsula and is a separate taxing district. It is also tasked with maintaining flood erosion control systems.
According to the Linden Shore District's Web site, the Indian Neck-Pawson Park peninsula was inhabited by the Totoket Indians, led by Chief Pawson during the 17th century. By 1716, the Indians had sold the property to the First Ecclesiastical Society of the First Congregational Church of Branford. The Society held leases on the some of the property until it was transferred to the Linden Shore District in 1967.
It is not known what role the Linden Shore District will play in the decision-making process regarding a permanent solution for the road and seawalls. The association held an emergency meeting last week to discuss storm damage, and will hold a regular meeting Sept. 14.
Across the peninsula, Carole Ford has lived in a 100-year-old home in the Pawson Park neighborhood since 1967. She, too, is appreciative of how quickly the town came to their aid.
"I think they did a good job. They were in there right away," Ford said. But she is eager for some long-term answers to the road. "It's the only way in and out. We have to have it."
Ford recalled the damage Hurricane Gloria did to her home in 1985. "We were very lucky this time," she said. "Gloria was worse for us but this one was worse for other people. It just depends which way the wind is blowing."
Electrical service wasn't restored to Ford's neighborhood until Saturday afternoon. She was particularly impressed with how the utility crews from Missouri worked non-stop to restore power. "Then they walked down to the beach because they had never seen water like this," Ford said of the crews. "What we take for granted, they were amazed to see."
Sean Hines, 20, a volunteer firefighter since he was 14, worked with the Indian Neck-Pine Orchard Company as they responded to around-the-clock to emergency calls during the hurricane. The station is on the landward side of the peninsula and he was walking on Linden Avenue when the waves were undermining the rocks from beneath the road.
"It was intense," Hines said. "We were up there while the road was eroding, and a massive wave washed up and threw a rock right in front of my face." He was not injured and continued to work.
Hines said was impressed with the way people helped each other and the response the firefighters received from residents. "The ladies baked us cookies and brownies when they got their power back," he said with a smile.
Disaster Recovery
During yesterday's update from town officials, DaRos announced that a Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) will be set up in Branford soon so that private homeowners may document their losses and hurricane-related repairs to FEMA.
According to information from the governor's office, homeowners must contact FEMA either by phone or online. To register with FEMA by phone, residents may call: 1-800-621-FEMA (3362). The TTY line for people with speech or hearing disabilities is 1-800-462-7585. The line is open from 7 am to 10 p.m., 7 days per week.
Click here to register online and to fill out an application.
If residents have disaster assistance questions, they may call the FEMA Helpline at 1-800-621-3362.
DaRos also included a personal message. "I want to thank the businesses that offered their services during the storm and commend all town departments and citizens for their fine performance at the highest level." He ended by congratulating residents, saying "we all got through this without any serious injury."
The town's Emergency Operation Center, which operated from the police department, will be closed. All shelters are now closed. All town departments will be back to normal hours effective today, except the transfer station which will remain open until 6 p.m.

This damage is nothing compared to what next year's storm will bring.
As beautiful as this very high-income area is (and I spend a lot of time there each summer), should it really be rebuilt using public funds, when we are simultaneously cutting transit and raising fares for children, elderly, and disabled residents?
posted by: Jay Avitable on September 6, 2011 1:05pm
Even if you want to be that cut-throat about it… If those properties go under water, they come off the tax rolls. Branford definitely cannot afford that!
posted by: Ray Ingraham on September 6, 2011 2:32pm
Branford's team of Public works, Police and Fire services deserve a great bit of thanks, they responded and helped so many. Teamed with our neighbors Branford is back up and running!
Jay so right sir, our tax base would be in the dumps without these homes so many have been there over a hundred years, they pay a premium because of the view and then an additional tax for a erosion control district. The fixes previously done have lasted decades, some lessons learned and put into action will make this road way safe for future generations.

Erosion taxes? I'm sure those raise a lot of money. This road will cost a million dollars in public funds to reconstruct, and it wasn't even a big storm. When the whole area is washed away again next year, how much of the cost will that cover?
The wealthy always have special laws and other ways to argue why everyone else should support their needs, and nebulous reasons why supporting the rich creates jobs.
Instead of propping up folks with 4-car garages, that million dollars in taxpayer funding could restore bus service instead so people who don't have cars could actually get to work - that's what would create many more jobs.

Just a few facts: Not everybody who lives on Linden Avenue or those on other parts of Indian Neck are, to quote "anon," "very high income." Many live in former summer cottages, modest homes, and pay huge property taxes. Many not only don't have four-car garages, they don't have garages. They would love bus service. There are about 400 families on Indian Neck, and they would like a road to get home and, yes, would like bus service. The area is not some luxurious gated enclave, as a drive throghout Indian Neck would clearly show.
posted by: There is no "magical funding" in Branford on September 7, 2011 1:11pm
The money you want to spend on buses has to come from somewhere.
So, I live out in Pawson Park and every year, I pay over $12,000 in town taxes each year. We're not rich and have never sent kids to the Branford school system (where 80% of town funding goes anyways), but I've never complained about the property taxes we pay.
Our house isn't big at all, but go ahead and assume that the average tax bill out that way is only 60% of that, so call it $7,200
$7,200*400 houses is around $2.9m a year. Assuming Branford cops, teachers, and other town workers make an average of $60k/year, that's around 48 town employees that are paid from the tax proceeds of this neighborhood alone. I think that's a reasonably important tax base for Branford.
Fix the road.

Rasie and Magical, You both are very right in your assessment. I live on Indian Neck Ave and my in-laws on Linden Ave , their family has been there since 1894. They pay more than their fair share of taxes they have not complained until recently about the amounts that go to each town entity. A point of clarification the Education budget is about 52% of the total budget of approximately $93 million dollars. The costs of the project is being assessed, I have read hundreds of thousands to millions we need to wait for the bids.
For full disclosure I am running to be a Representative for the Fifth District on the RTM and also the Republican Town Chairman.

I love how people complain about taxes, then want other people (besides themselves) to pay more in taxes for rebuilding what are, essentially, large private driveways.
Sure, there is a tax base in the area, but you can't just magically assign all that to the road, because the residents here clearly benefit from many other town expenditures (police, fire, schools etc.). As usual, we are taxing the less well off, and borrowing from our children's futures, in order to build palaces for the rich.
Perhaps if the area were made open to public use, there would be more support for using public funding for rebuilding it. Otherwise, the public needs to stop funding roads that are clearly just going to get washed away again.
Rebuild the road, but do it through a new tax, just on the houses in this area, that actually covers the cost.
posted by: anon, and while your at it we ... on September 8, 2011 8:31am
should only tax the people whose house has a fire, and only the people that have children for education, and on and on. Pretty soon we will come to something you need and the all the others will look at you to pay for what you need. Our country was founded on the idea of Government working for the "Common Good" but many today sleep-ed through part of American History. Surprise…others did not and still believe in the "Common Good."
posted by: Pawson Resident on September 8, 2011 11:04am
Anon, you seem to have missed the point. Where do you think that the money is coming from? How are we taxing the less well-off to pay for the road (your assertion)? Even in the most critical review of paying for the road, the argument would be that the town is directing less of the Pawson/Indian Neck tax payments to subsidize the rest of the town than it usually does. Even if you take $1m (a high estimate) repair this year, those familes are still making a net contribution of $5,000 each to the town's coffers.
Year after year, the residents of that area contribute far more to the town's finances than they take out - that's a progressive system and I don't have a problem with that (within reason). But, those people have the right, at a minimum, to the same repair and town services as anyone else in the town.

I might add that in addition to taxes, those 400 families spend their money all over our community. They spend in shops and restaurants buy goods and services thereby creating the community we love so much. I agree with the previous post, its for the common good.

Education, discounts and a controversial political figure were among Google's list of the fastest rising Denver-related searches in 2010. The Bolder Boulder race topped Google's Denver Zeitgeist list, followed by "UCDenver."
"Four of the ten of Denver have some kind of connection to education, and that's kind of a theme we saw across a lot of different cities," said Kevin Willer, head of industry for Google.
The search company released top 10 lists for 15 cities in the U.S. in addition to the annual national and global rankings. The lists don't represent the most-searched terms, just the terms that saw the biggest jumps in queries compared with a year earlier.
The only person to crack the top 10 list in Denver was Ken Buck, the Colorado Republican senate nominee who lost the race to Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet. Buck made a couple of controversial remarks during his campaign.
Technology dominated the national list, with "iPad" ranking as the fastest rising search term.

Can this mouse detect concurrent clicks?
The original Bluetooth Mighty Mouse couldn't detect right-clicks separately to left-clicks. This meant that there was no way to chord a simultaneous left- and right-click to perform a middle-click, and there was no ability to play games which might have had zoom on one button and fire on the other.
Has the Magic Mouse fixed this? Can separate clicks be detected separately?

The Light and How to Swing It: Gearing a new level 80 tankadin, part 3
First up, I'm looking for action screenshots of retribution and protection paladins. They can be any level between 1 and 80. I'll be using these for header graphics like the one above. Please send those as well as any other comments to my email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Secondly, this is it. We're almost done. We're finishing our final installment of how to gear your new level 80 protection paladin. If you've been reading our previous weeks of this guide, you know that we talked over reputation and profession gear as well as all of the various dungeon gear you can nab. This week we're going to be taking advantage of all of that dungeon running and spending our badges with a look at all of the badges from Frost to Heroism (and yes there are exactly 7 useful items that you can trade Emblems of Triumph down to Emblems of Heroism for ... and 6 of them are epic gems).

Review: The Fifth Queen (The Fifth Queen #1-3)
User Review - Tiffany - GoodreadsA bit too old-fashioned for me, the dialogue was too gadzooks and methinks for me to really enjoy. I recognize that historical fiction has changed quite a bit since Ford's time, but I just couldn't get much further than most of the way through the first book. Read full review

Hello, Los Angeles! #LetRockRule #AerosmithApril8 PLEASE RETWEET pic.twitter.com/IVQ3qUz5wz — Aerosmith (@Aerosmith) April 3, 2014
Hello, Los Angeles! #LetRockRule #AerosmithApril8 PLEASE RETWEET pic.twitter.com/IVQ3qUz5wz
Aerosmith and Slash are preparing for an announcement next week -- most likely on Tuesday (April 8) -- for their summer Let Rock Rule tour. To gear up for the reveal, Aerosmith and guitarist Joe Perry have engaged in a bit of graffiti around Los Angeles, all captured on their Twitter feeds and Facebook and Instagram pages. In one, Perry confirms that the tour is "absolutely official" and that "tickets will be going on sale real soon." No time frame has been specified for the tour yet. Aerosmith, which released "Music From Another Dimension!" in 2012, is unlikely to have any new music for the trek, though Slash and his band, the Conspirators, have been working on a new album they hope to have out by the end of summer or in the fall. Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler tells us that his band's frequent issues and interpersonal turmoil tend to melt away when the five members are actually on stage together:
"The funny thing about the band is when we're on stage, (we're) different animals on stage. We're right back to the same people we were when we were in the studio writing and the first year that we met and the excitement and the gleam in Tom Hamilton's eye when he picked up the bass and we made music together. Oh, sure, we all played music apart, but once we played it together, oops, there's the magic. It was like the five right keys that opened the lock of what it is-ness -- you can coin that term, baby!"

ABC News reported that he is now being sought by authorities on obstruction of justice charges. This report stated that an arrest warrant has been issued for the Patriots tight end in connection with the shooting death of 27-year-old Odin Lloyd of Boston. However, The Boston Globe countered with a report of its own saying no such warrant has yet been issued. Both reports cited unnamed sources in law enforcement.
ABC News' report said authorities believe there's evidence to suggest Hernandez's home security system was destroyed. Furthermore, when the player's attorneys handed over his cell phone to investigators, that device was also broken "in pieces." Police also want answers as to why a cleaning crew was called to work inside Hernandez's North Attleboro, Mass. home on Monday.
Meanwhile, a U.S. District Court in south Florida has issued a summons for Hernandez. The document informs Hernandez that he is being sued and has 21 days to respond to this action. If he fails to do so, the court paper says, the plaintiff will automatically receive the damages sought.
A 30-year-old Connecticut man, Alexander Bradley, claims to be an acquaintance of Hernandez and says, in his court filings, that he was shot by Hernandez in February. Bradley is seeking compensation of an unspecified amount in excess of $100,000, according to the court documents.
The 23-year-old Hernandez made a brief appearance at Gillette Stadium on Thursday before leaving the facility and driving to his lawyers' offices in downtown Boston. Several media and news helicopters followed Hernandez the entire way, with some news stations airing live footage of his vehicle on its journey.

The name Rutherford automatically establishes kinship with a fairly closeknit group of people who first appeared by that name on the borders of Scotland. Marriages between the Scot and English, primarily to settle the border disputes, were consumated in the 17th Century and we find the Rutherfords were among those who married and settled in Northunberland county, England, as well as the original tree from Jedburgh, Roxburghshire Scotland. Having researched my family, I start with Robert Rutherford, 1634 in Essex County, Virginia and follow to Robert Jr; John, William, Finney, Dulaney, William C. etc.. Any further information would be appreciated. I am also willing to share any information that I have. I also have the great works of William Kenneth and Anna Clay Rutherford Volume I and II dated 1986. |

Reduced cost clinic Sat. for 'fixing' cats from Berwick
Friday, September 6, 2013
BERWICK, Maine — For cat owners who missed the Spay/Neuter Clinic for low-income residents two weekends ago, there will be another this Saturday.
The AWS has hosted this clinic six times in the past two years and more than 100 cats in four local communities were spayed/neutered through the reduced cost clinic last year. |
