New York Post "The Yankees offense had enough problems, and now it will be without its most consistent weapon for at least a couple of weeks.

New York Daily News "Jacoby Ellsbury won't be in the lineup Tuesday or Wednesday thanks to a mild abdominal strain, but the Yankees aren't overly concerned. At least not yet, anyway.

Yankees have made offer to FA infielder Omar Infante, in addition to Drew, Ellsbury, Choo, Beltran, sources tell @Ken_Rosenthal and me.

Clarification on something I reported earlier. #Mariners want Ellsbury or Choo plus starting pitcher. Not on Napoli, but will seek RH bat.

Julian Smith | September 27, 2004 | Comments
Search may be hot right now, but online branding will soon blossom.
Much attention has been paid to search-initiated, pay-per-click (PPC) advertising over the last couple of years, and rightly so. We at Jupiter Research (a Jupitermedia Corp. division) estimate spending more than doubled in Europe from 2002 to 2004, from €225 to €576 million, outpacing growth of all other advertising forms, online and off-. (In the U.S., it rose from $1.1 to $2.6 million during the same period.) As hordes of new advertisers latch on to paid listings' cost-effective, lead-generating potential, and Google awkwardly transitions from a private to public company, online activity and the industry it spawned garners plenty of column inches.
Recently I was asked, in light of all this, whether I believe the phenomenal growth of search advertising has overshadowed what the Internet can do in terms of branding.
No, I don't.
Although low-risk PPC activity may highlight the Internet's direct response capabilities, it hasn't totally overshadowed how the medium can contribute to shifting brand metrics. Though the spotlight has been on search, in the background marketers have been growing confident about using the Web to help build brand. Online branding spend, in the form of display ads, content sponsorship, and, increasingly, rich media and streaming video, also continues to grow steadily, dominating online ad spending.
From 2002 to 2004, investment in online display media formats increased from €580 to €946 throughout Europe. In the U.S., rich media advertising will almost triple in size from $0.5 million in 2003 to $1.3 billion in 2005.
Paid search advertising can tap into a self-selected target audience who are actively considering a product or service and encourage their clickthroughs. As such, paid search is particularly popular with retailers looking to directly influence an online (or off-) sale. Its dramatic growth is, in fact, closely linked to growth in e-commerce spending.
But limited creative possibilities don't make paid search attractive to some sectors, including automotive and fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG). Such sectors use the Internet more to build awareness, interest, and desire than to activate immediate response.
Almost all the major car manufacturers are now investing significant budget in online. They're making long-term sponsorships deals, using rich media formats, and creating viral marketing campaigns. Volkswagen created a campaign-specific microsite, exclusively on the NYTimes.com for three months, to celebrate 30 years of the Golf. Ford Galaxy sponsored "Family Days Out" themes on AOL and, interestingly, the Tesco.com retail site (an early example of "advercommerce"). And The Mystery of Dalarö was a superb and award-winning integrated ad campaign for the Volvo S40.
A new age may be dawning for the online FMCG sector as well. Drinks giant Diageo recently announced in the UK it's putting more time and effort into its online ad strategy. It intends to use the Web as a branding medium for brands such as Archer's Peach Schnapps, rather than as a direct response channel. This could be a landmark for the medium and may herald the start of a more concerted move by FMCG brands in this direction. It's perhaps not surprising considering how the Internet is becoming increasingly interwoven into the daily lives of the young, affluent consumer, and its consumption is increasingly cannibalising use of traditional media channels. Many available case studies highlight significant lifts in branding metrics by adding an online element to the marketing mix. Just ask the Interactive Advertising Bureau or Dynamic Logic.
The Internet still only complements traditional brand-building channels such as TV and print, which will continue to dominate for a number of years. But with increasingly fragmented media consumption, these media can't do it alone. Media must be more fully integrated, often with online at the core. Although these advertising conduits can build brand awareness, interactive media build brand experience and, ultimately, loyalty.
The burgeoning demand for paid search increases keyword bid prices, making participation increasingly expensive. Conversion rates are unlikely to rise at the same rate, so the channel is slowing and becoming less cost-effective. As this trend develops, balance will be restored between cost-per-action-based buys (e.g., search) and CPM-based impression buys. The two primary online advertising objectives, direct response and branding, will then coexist in more equal harmony.

BEIJING A strong earthquake struck a remote, mountainous part of China's southwest Sunday, killing at least 367 people, injuring more than 1,800 and toppling more than 12,000 homes, state-run media reported.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the magnitude-6.1 quake struck at 4:30 p.m. local time.The China Earthquake Networks Center measured the quake as magnitude-6.5 and said the epicenter was along a known earthquake belt in Ludian county of Zhaotong City, in southwest Yunnan province.
Most of the deaths 357 were in Zhaotong City, the state-run Xinhua News Agency reported. Another 10 people were killed in Quijing City.
It was the strongest quake to hit Yunnan in 14 years, Chinese state broadcaster CCTV said.
Ma Liya, a resident in the Ludian county seat, told Xinhua that the streets were like a battlefield after bombardment. Transportation, electricity and telecommunications were cut off in the county, the news agency said. CCTV showed emergency workers climbing over large boulders that had fallen and blocked roads in the mountainous and poor region.
China dispatched more than 2,500 troops to the disaster region, Xinhua said. Civil affairs authorities and the Red Cross of China were sending thousands of tents, folding beds, quilts and coats to the region to aid those in the quake area, CCTV said.
Aftershocks, landslides, rain and thunderstorms are hampering rescue efforts, The People's Daily newspaper and the Sina.com website reported. Heavy rains are forecast for the next three days.
Since the massive 2008 earthquake in neighboring Sichuan province that left nearly 90,000 people dead or missing, China has invested heavily in a national earthquake monitoring and early warning system that cannot forecast a tremor but may be able to notify people seconds before seismic waves reach their area.
The China News Service, a state-run news agency, said Sunday that local seismology bureaus had issued warnings for Zhaotong 10 seconds ahead of the quake reaching the city, and gave a 57-second warning for the provincial capital Kunming.
In Sichuan's Yibin city, the Yibin News website reported residents had received cell-phone warnings 40 seconds before the quake. The official Yunnan.cn website quoted a seismic expert who was skeptical of the warnings claimed in Chinese media reports.

Got Behavioral Economics?
Despite economists' frequent assumption that humans are rational economic agents, let's admit it, we have limitations; we may be weak, altruistic, easily manipulated or scatter-brained among many other things. Thus, results based on, say field experiments relying on one-off interviews may tend to miss a lot of that important human behavior.

Property Details
6 Bedrooms, 6 Baths, Sleeps 20
Hale Pua ("House of Flowers") features five king bedrooms plus one bunkroom with four twin beds. This special home is maybe the only 6 bedroom/6 full bath luxury oceanfront home for vacation rental on the Kona Coast. For recent candid photos and input from guests, please visit our Facebook page, halepuahouseofflowers.
Hale Pua is a coastal oasis with high-end comforts and details throughout. While this privately-owned home works wonderfully for large gatherings, it is just as warm & welcoming for several couples or a smaller family group.
The home boasts full baths for every bedroom, and a sprawling sea-facing great room with easy access to the kitchen and wetbar. Multiple wall-to-wall glass sliding doors on the oceanside allow trade winds to gently flow while enjoying the stunning water and sunset views. You can SEE or HEAR the ocean from nearly every room!
The spacious lanai with waterfall pool and spa extends the full length of the house along the oceanfront. A lush stretch of yard is the only separation between the rolling surf against the lava rock wall and the home's lanai.
Just a 50 foot walk from the lanai along a wide rock wall is a small sandy beach with gentle entry to abundant tide pools and out to the ocean for snorkeling, surfing or kayaking.
Your ocean view is unobstructed and stunning; no walking path between you and the sea which is the case in many local beachfront neighborhoods.
After a day of sun & fun, kids (or adults!) can chill out watching their favorite movie or enjoying a video game in the media room featuring leather home theater recliners, 70" Smart Samsung flat screen 3D TV, 3D viewing glasses, surround sound & Sony PlayStation/Blu-ray player. Many recent movies along with popular Play Station games are provided for your enjoyment.
The executive open-design dream kitchen features ocean view granite counter and dining room seating for 16 indoors, 8 outdoors. This chef-worthy kitchen is equipped with 2 refrigerators, 2 dishwashers, 1 wine cooler, Subzero & Dacor appliances along with flatware & dishes to serve over 20 people.
Hale Pua is a special home that has been recently renovated with custom paint, window treatments, wall art and designer Restoration Hardware furniture. Each bedroom bears a fitting title in a brass doorplate, such as "Surf's Up", "Kona Coffee", "Pua Suite" and so on. The Hawaiian bedroom décor showcases new linens, pillows and tropical touches that will make you smile. All bedrooms have flat screen TVs with cable.
The 2nd floor Master Suite, with panoramic ocean views, provides optimum whale and dolphin watching opportunities. Another guest suite is "Ohana" designed, also ocean view offering upstairs sleeping and separate downstairs living/sleeping with wall-to-wall sliders opening onto the lanai.
The baths are all full-size, three with double-sink vanities. Four of the six baths have very large tiled walk-in showers; the other two have shower tubs, one of those featuring a Jacuzzi. Vaulted beamed ceilings throughout the home, with finish work done in native Koa wood. The large laundry is centrally located in the home, featuring two new Whirlpool Duet full-size washers & two dryers.
Hale Pua is perfectly located; close enough for adults and kids to walk to Old Kona Town and the pier. Set back 130 feet from prestigious Alii Drive, behind a private remote-controlled gate, the setting is peaceful and private.
Part of Hale Pua's charm is its traditional Hawaiian coastal open-air design. The home has louvered and screened windows throughout and features large wall-to-wall sliding doors on the ocean side of the house - the prevailing trade winds from the west over the ocean and the mountain breezes from the east keep this home comfortable with ceiling fans and Vornado floor fans throughout.

Reviewer Comments:
We had 7 boys (3-8 yrs) and 12 adults. The place was absolutely perfect. Clean, well maintained, plenty of room, huge kitchen to feed the hungry crowd. The boys loved the pool, but we were close enough to town to visit regularly. The nicest place we have stayed for family vacation in 7 years. Loved the Da Poke Shack for lunch and Jackie Rey's and Quinns for dinner. Hapuna Beach, while a bit crowded, should not be missed.
About the Owner
This is the second home we've owned in the Kona area, the first being up in the Kona Coffee belt of Holualoa. Having retired in 2009, we can now focus more on one of our favorite vacation spots – the Big Island! Only two previous owners (those who built Hale Pau and one other couple) meticulously cared for this estate. We plan to live up to their legacy for many years to come, maintaining and investing in Hale Pua as generously as did they.
Guestbook comments from the manager
Hale Pua was the perfect house to host my extended family for my 50th birthday celebration. There were 17 of us total and this house could accommodate more comfortably. Every bedroom has it's own bath and the master suite is on a level of it's own with a private balcony overlooking the surf. There are 3 fridges and adequate parking within a secured gate. This house is situated on a main thorough fare to the center of town where all the action is. Very close to Magic Sands beach as well. We walked to town several times while there. The house is tastefully decorated and the rental agency was very responsive when we had a concern. We would definitely stay here again. Hale Pua is wonderful!

Great place for a large family (three generations) vacation. There was plenty of rooms and beds for all 14 of us. Everyday we saw whales and dolphins from the backyard and every evening was a picture perfect sunset. Can sit right on the rock wall and see turtles and colorful fish in the ocean below. Easy access to the water for snorkeling or surfing right from the house. Five minute walk to a local farmers market. House is very clean and property management company very responsive.

This my first time renting a home for a family vacation. Hale Pua met all of our expectations! Spacious, loved the pool, the view, the kitchen-we cooked more than we thought we would because the kitchen was so fabulous and well appointed. Ocean breeze all day long. This was perfect for our large family.
You will not be disappointed!!!!
From the Owner
"We have three children, two grown and one in high school, three grandkids and a large extended family. We've struggled to find a home to rent with enough bedrooms and baths so kids weren't in sleeping bags and stepping all over each other. When our family & friends join us on the Big Island, they all yearn for an oceanfront property with both pool and spa; the adults and younger ones alike want easy access to snorkel, kayak and boogie board in the ocean; the kids are thrilled if there's a theater room for movies & video games; and everyone hopes to be near enough to walk to Kona town. We finally found the perfect venue with Hale Pua!"

While many owners toilet their dogs outside, indoor potty-training is a viable option for small breeds, particularly those living in cold climates or in high-rise buildings. The following steps will help you get started:
"My puppy can go all night without pooping or peeing: why do I have to take him out every hour during the day?"
Many dogs are frightened by the sights and sounds of thunderstorms: the rain, wind, thunder, lightning and even pressure changes can all produce anxiety. The degree of that anxiety depends on the individual dog: some simply pace and whine, others hide, still others injure themselves trying to escape confinement. This degree of reaction will determine which interventions are most appropriate for the dog.
Submissive urination is defined by sudden urination when a dog feels threatened. This may occur when someone is greeting the dog (with direct eye contact, forward posture and leaning over the dog) or punishing him, either verbally or physically. Excitement urination occurs most frequently during greetings and play.
Submissive urination is most common among dogs with the following characteristics:
Dogs bark for a number of reasons, leaving many owners to wonder how best to solve the problem. Paula Zukoff, Manager of Behavior and Training, addresses three primary causes of barking and how to work with each one:
People plant gardens, excavate foundations for homes and build freeways, all activities we might define as human "digging". However, if these activities were done in inappropriate places, we might define them as destructive behaviors. As natural as our digging needs are to us, dogs have digging habits with very similar goals. Unfortunately, their digging activity is not often acceptable when living with their human families.
Chewing, playing, exploring, and investigating their environment are normal behaviors for dogs – especially puppies! However, these normal behaviors can result in destruction of household property, which can become a serious and frustrating problem for owners. In fact, destructive behavior is one of the most commonly reported behavior problems in dogs. DOGS DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN DESTRUCTIVE ACTIVITIES OUT OF SPITE OR REVENGE! Dogs often behave destructively to relieve anxiety or as an outlet for excess ene

Separation Anxiety is an anxiety disorder, and in humans and probably dogs, SA is closely related to panic disorders. The dog is panicking in the absence of the owner, or the object of attachment (which could be another animal, but usually is a human). The dog can have any or all of the following behaviors that occur only in the absence of the owner:
Other signs include:
What causes Separation Anxiety?
Nobody is completely sure, but there is some evidence that some dogs may be genetically predisposed to anxiety-related conditions. There is a strong correlation between thunderstorm phobia and SA, and many of these dogs appear to us as little "puppy paw-wringers". They may "worry" about a lot of things, may be dogs that pace a lot.
There is some evidence that SA is higher in dogs that have never successfully learned to be alone, such as in a dog that has always lived with another dog, or is home much of the time with their person. Retired persons, at-home parents, people who office at home, student housing, or homes with someone home most of the time will often present with a dog with SA-related symptoms. As a social species, it is not natural for dogs to be completely alone, and they must learn this at a young age so they can tolerate it. When looking at the history, find out about the make-up of the household. It is normal for puppies to distress call when separated, and when they learn very early to be separated from people, they're more likely to tolerate it. Dogs rarely if ever enjoy being separated from their humans, but it is not normal for dogs to be frantic and desperate about it.
What can I do?
You can contact a Veterinary Behaviorist or your own Veterinarian about treatments that may help to reduce anxiety in the dog. You can check our behavior helpline for referral information. You may also want to read more about Separation Anxiety. We recommend I'll Be Home Soon by Patricia McConnell.
If you have a dog that lunges/pulls toward/barks at other dogs on walks, you know how stressful and embarrassing it can be. In addition, you may be offered "advice" from well-meaning friends and relatives (who are not dog professionals) that only seem to make the matter worse. This kind of behavior has many components that must be considered:
Mission: To engage the hearts, hands, and minds
of the community to help animals.
Vision: To compassionately and responsibly
create a more humane world for animals.
Core Values: Be good to animals. Partner with people.
Lead responsibly with compassion.

Too often, the news from China about animals is about unethical treatment and abuses. Here's a far more positive report: Recently, in the midst of winter, 59 Chinese volunteers helped to clear 162 illegal wire snares from the northeastern province of Heilongijang. The snares had been set by poachers and are meant to catch boar, rabbits and roe deer, but have sometimes caught tigers. Indeed, last October, a tiger was found dead in one such snare.
The population of Amur or Siberian tigers in China is very low — only 18 to 22 are thought to remain — and the animals are critically endangered. In the 1940s, about 300 tigers were living in the country. The World Conservation Society estimates that fewer than 3,500 tigers remain in the wild, with only about 1,000 of those breeding females. Signs of these big cats have been appearing more and more in the nearby Russian Far East, where the population is several hundred.
Tiger parts are sought after for use in traditional Chinese medicine; their bones have been used for centuries to treat arthritis and muscular atrophy. The animals' beautiful pelts are also highly sought after. In addition, illegal logging is threatening their' habitat. Roe deer are one of the tigers' staple foods but poaching has drastically reduced the population of these in the forests.
The Chinese volunteers included doctors, computer engineers, public servants and college students; they worked beside WCS staff for six days in freezing temperatures and in deep snow. Joe Walston, WCS Director of Asia Programs, said that it was "heartening to see a new generation of environmentally committed young Chinese willing and able to volunteer their time to do something challenging but important for their country's natural heritage."
Zhu Chunquan, who works at the World Wildlife Fund's Beijing office, emphasized that, unless the Chinese government takes steps, the tigers will disappear from China within 10 to 20 years — a preventable tragedy, if the right steps are taken to ensure their survival.

It gives me such hope that people are out there, doing whatever they can, to help save these majestic animals :)
wonderful and inspiring news, our children show us the way forward in this dark and inhumane world and give us hope for a compassionate future.
Educated Chinese youth of today have been campaiging and protesting to bring attention to the horrors of the dog/cat meat trade for some time. Recently they stopped a cargo of 1000 cats that were heading for the slaughter. It was heartbreaking to see these poor animals desperate for water and medical attention. These young people are the hope of tomorrow in educating the Chinese of this vicious dog/cat meat trade and why this practice should end.
La Chine détruit les tigres (bravo à ces quelques volontaires), détruit les rhinocéros, torturent des chiens (jetés vivants dans l' eau bouillante , dépecés vivants, battus à mort, électrocutés devant d' autres chiens qui hurlent de peur et qui urinent de peur car ils savent qu' ils vont subir le même sort) et cela pour faire monter l' adrénaline du chien pour que sa viande soit aphrosidisiaque . Les rhinos sont en voie de disparition mais cela n' inquiète pas la Chine qui continue ce massacre.
Better late than never (just). I'm glad about this, and wish for them and the tiger every success.
If all the Chinese, 1 billion of them were all using tiger parts, then they wouldn't be any tigers left! They would have made them extinct many years ago. You have to stop hating the entire Chinese population for the excesses of their one percent. Yes they have a 1% too! ...Thats like hating America because that's where G.W. Bush comes from! I suspect these China haters are small minded bigots who are looking for someone to hate, and if they didn't hate China then they would just hate someone else.
finally some have developed a conscience I hope this awareness spread Thanks to this group

Respond to Review of Rasayana Raw Food Cafe
by rawfoodie
Review: Every time I go through Bangkok, I visit this place. Initially I raved about it, but overtime - perhaps as I ate my way through the menu - my assessment became more, shall we say, balanced. There are some delicious items, especially the salads! The main courses, however, can be hit or miss. Some are fantastic, like the Mushroom burger, but I found the Sun Burger inedible and other items were just glorified salads. Sadly, the desserts were often disappointing. (From my culinary perspective, there's nothing worse than an unsatisfactory dessert!) The packaged raw snacks they sell by the counter inside are usually quite tasty. Although raw food is rarely cheap, dining here is expensive and a full meal can easily cost US$20 per person (juice, salad, main, desert). The price tag is high for Thailand considering the facilities are basic (although nicely done) and the location is remote, well tucked away in residential neighborhood. If you enjoy raw food and find yourself in Bangkok, it's worth a try.

You've probably noticed ads on your MetroCard before, but for the first time you'll notice it in Spanish. That's because a print run of 250,000 MetroCards in Spanish was purchased by the immigration law firm Youman, Madeo & Fasano LLP. The print campaign uses two versions with a run of 125,000 cards for each. One version advertises the law firm and its locations, and the other promotes a television show on immigration issues that the law firm produces.

In 1934, then-New York City Parks Department Commissioner Robert Moses announced plans to upgrade Riis Park, spending $1.7 million to add a new bathing pavilion, parking lot, pitch-'n-put golf course, and a 40–foot wide, mile–long boardwalk. As part of the plan to get more residents to visit and eventually settle in the Jamaica Bay and the Rockaway Peninsula areas, Moses also went ahead with plans to build the Marine Parkway Bridge.

I'm not sure how effective these would be based on the way they are designed. Probably not the best idea for a big time chewer. However, as long as supervised I would think they would be ok for a dog.

Cascade Engineering
Michigan-based Cascade grew from a six-employee company founded in 1973 to a global manufacturing concern, producing injection-molded plastic parts for cars, renewable energy companies, office furniture and numerous other sectors around the world, all while maintaining a commitment to sustainability and lean manufacturing processes. They make everything from wind turbines to recycling bins made from recycled materials, and were the first makers of the Equa chair for path-breaking office design firm Herman Miller. The company has received numerous awards for innovation and makes sustainability a key part of its mission, producing cradle-to-cradle certified goods and seeking LEED certification for its facilities while reducing landfill costs. The company acts socially responsible in emergencies (sending 1,000 water filters to Haiti after the earthquake shattered that country) and over the longterm (raising cancer awareness with its pink trash bins and launching an anti-racism campaign). Cascade also pioneered a welfare-to-work program that gives unemployed people the skills they need to land a well-paying job. Now it has launched a consulting arm to help other companies and communities replicate that effort to empower under- and unemployed people. Cascade is a GOOD Company finalist for matching growth and responsibility at each stage of its development.

Heinz Hess founded this German organic clothing producer in 1976, a time when polyester was king and Hess couldn't find natural clothing that suited the needs of his growing family. The company began organic cotton farming projects in Egypt, Peru, Senegal, Turkey, and Burkina Faso, and has expanded those same practices—eschewing artificial pesticides and fertilizers—to produce linen, silk, and wool products with local partners. The company's headquarters in Butzbach, Germany was designed to save energy and reduce environmental impact, from the renewable energy that powers its only elevator to the organic café on the top floor. The first certified B Corporation in Europe, hessnatur has its social mission written into its corporate articles, and worked with the Clean Clothes Campaign to develop a protocol to ensure that human production standards are followed in its factories. Another pioneer in environmentalism and corporate responsibility, hessnatur's steady approach to improving business practices sets a standard for its competitors.

A longtime leader in corporate social responsibility, the outdoor apparel company founded by Yvon Chouinard and a group of fellow rock climbers and surfers in 1972 is a leader in product quality and shared value, freely mixing advocacy for the environment with the latest waterproof shells. The company has pioneered responsible supply chains, founding the Fair Labor Association in the 1990s, and is expanding the auditing and analysis of its factories, working with companies like Verite to promote fair labor practices and environmental sustainability. The company also donates at least 1 percent of its sales to environmental groups, and each year launches a large-scale educational campaign on an environmental issue—in 2011, they're focusing on freshwater depletion with their Common Waters campaign. The company doesn't leave it's employees in the lurch, either, boasting an on-site child care center at its Ventura, California headquarters, along with flexible working hours, job-sharing, and, of course, company-organized outdoor activities. Patagonia's willingness to include social responsibility in its corporate DNA makes it one of the original GOOD companies.

King Arthur Flour
King Arthur, founded in 1790, produces a wide variety of high-quality flours for amateurs and professionals alike, along with a slew of baking products. A B Corporation, King Arthur works to ensure its practices are sustainable and its packaging and facilities are environmentally friendly. Plus, the company uses no bleach, bromates or genetic modifiers in its flour. But it also gets major points for being entirely employee-owned: Since 1996, an employee stock-ownership program has given King Arthur's workers total control of the company. This allows them to focus on social and environmental responsibility as well as the flour giant's bottom line, and to be totally invested in the company's success. While the company is still working towards decreasing the largest environmental impacts that come with its work—the use of water, energy and pesticides by the American farmers that supply its wheat—King Arthur is an example of a successful company that creatively used corporate structures to pursue social impact as well as profit.

Method was founded in 2001 by Adam Lowry and Eric Ryan, who were disappointed that most of the soaps, scrubs, and detergents you could buy were neither good for the environment nor very pleasant for people to use. The private firm leveraged eco-friendly branding and carefully thought-out product design—not to mention effective cleaners, like the first triple-concentrated laundry detergent in the U.S.—to grow rapidly and compete with home care giants across a range of products. Method is a founding B Corporation and boasts some 60 products that are cradle-to-cradle (essentially, sustainability-certified). With their success, major competitors like Clorox and Proctor & Gamble are launching green-friendly marketing campaigns. With international expansion continuing in France and Japan and new products, like last year's new anti-bacterial cleaning sprays and wipes, hitting the markets, Method will have to stay nimble to remain a step ahead of its traditional competitors.

Annie's Homegrown
The makers of organic prepared food, like the mac and cheese that sustained some of us through our college years. Founded in 1989 by Annie Withey, who didn't like that packaged foods in the supermarket had ingredients lists that read like the periodic table, Annie's has grown into a major purveyor of organic foods of all kinds, from fruit snacks to barbecue sauce. Acting as a major producer of organic foods, the company has helped create a market—and an incentive—for farmers to produce natural foodstuffs. The company has adopted sustainability standards for its packaging and purchases carbon offsets to reduce its carbon impact. Annie's also provides grants that fund community and school gardens, as well as $75,000 a year in scholarships for students studying sustainable agriculture. Growing from a single entrepreneur's vision to a multi-million dollar company in the last two decades, Annie's demonstrates how one person's business can make a difference, popularizing organic food and spreading knowledge and support for sustainable agriculture into the future.

Zipcar began providing European-style car-sharing in Cambridge, MA (natch) in 2000. Today, 560,000 members can access 8,000 vehicles in 60 cities in North America and the United Kingdom. By using the internet and mobile technology to manage the challenges of tracking its fleet and matching drivers with available rides, Zipcar was able to offer a service that was scalable, cheap and convenient for city-dwellers who only wanted a car sometimes. As a pioneer in the car-sharing space (it bought a major competitor, Flexcar, in 2007), the company deserves recognition for expanding a whole new economic sector. Zipcar's business plan also has environmental benefits; the company estimates that each Zipcar takes 15 other cars off the road, and that driving shorter distances saves 219 gallons of crude oil per member. After a successful IPO earlier this year, the company will need to prove to investors that fast expansion will be backed up by profits established in key markets – and that rental car companies seeking to compete as short-term car providers can't steal Zipcar's thunder.

The network, which has long portrayed itself as a progressive, independent alternative to traditional news channels, is moving toward direct competition with networks like Fox News and MSNBC, relying on key hires like host Keith Olbermann, the awarding-winning TV firebrand, and new company president David Bohrman, the veteran CNN executive behind John King's "magic wall" and Wolf Blitzer's Situation Room.

•• What it is ••
The Oxo Good Grips Corn Holders are a set of 8 corn on the cob holders. In the tradition of Oxo, they are fat rubber covered handles, with points that shove into the ends of corn on t he cob providing a better grip and less mess. According to Oxo, the line of products were originally developed by a man who wanted larger cooking utensils to help his arthritic wife. While I admire the intent of the original invention, is it really necessary to have ergonomically superior corn cob holders?
•• Features and Commentary ••
As mentioned above, the Oxo Good Grips Corn Holders are a fat plastic nob. They are covered in a rubber-like material and are soft to the touch. They do feel solid while gripping, but since corn on the cob is not a grueling hand exercise, I hadn't noticed they were more comfortable than any other nob holder.
The Oxo Good Grips Corn Holders are dishwasher safe even on the extra high temp setting of the dishwasher. We usually put them in the basket that we use for sippy cup lids, but they are big enough that they'll fit in the silverware drawer. We've had ours for over a year and the rubber has shown no signs of cracking. The holders are very durable.
At the base of the holders just before the spikes, is a slight plastic ring. This is used for butting up to the corn and supposedly to aid in keeping butter off the grips. This little plastic thing does not work. The grips inevitably get some butter on them. Let's face it: If you are putting butter on the cob and rotating it around whilst eating it, you're going to get a little bit of butter on your fingers. Just deal with it.
The prongs that stick into the cob are very sharp and stainless steel. They have no rusted or come loose from the holders. Once again, Oxo has made an excellent, durable product. Each holder has not one, but 2 prongs. This is to keep one prong from twisting around inside the cob. Since the prongs are rather long, they work beautifully. They don't slip or come loose until the time you need to yank them out and wash them.
Now for the problem that gives the Pampered Chef Corn Cob Nobs the edge. The Oxo Good Grips Corn Holders are no microwaveable. Why does this matter? Because the best method of cooking corn on the cob is to put them in a 9x13 pan with a little bit of water and then nuke them. This effectively steams the corn. And yes, this makes the best corn on the cob, don't argue with me. That said, these corn holders then force you to grip the hot corn and push them in. The same goes for those who boil them. These are not boil safe, so if you boil your cobs, then you'll also need to handle those when they are scalding hot. This is where the Pampered Chef cob nobs have the edge since they are boil and microwave safe.
•• Conclusion ••
Oxo Good Grips Corn Holders are a solid choice for those who like Oxo products. They are fatter and easier to grip and made with the traditional Oxo materials. And while they are dishwasher safe, they are not microwaveable or boil-able. As a result, they are not the best corn cob nobs you can buy.

Annmarie Fertoli, Associate Producer at WNYC
Annmarie Fertoli is an Associate Producer at WNYC, working with the afternoon news team to produce All Things Considered.
Affordable housing at Atlantic Yards is receiving increased focus from lawmakers.
Developer Forest City Ratner committed to 2,200 units of affordable housing in return for significant tax breaks and State Assemblyman Walter Mosley said Brooklyn residents deserve a return on their investment in the project.
"We want to make sure that a home-court advantage is built for all Brooklynites, not just for an NBA basketball team," he said.
Forest City Ratner said it's already focused on creating affordable housing, and it plans to open its first building with affordable units by the end of next year.
In the build up towards the "Atlantic Yards" redevelopment, the promises of economic growth, "affordable housing," and professional sports were not simply made in exchange for tax breaks and land. These "benefits" were seen as justifications for the removal of neighborhood residents; Brooklynites who were unfortunate enough to live in the path of "progress."
I came to know many of these people in 2005 & 2006 while making a photographic record of their neighborhood. No one who lived there ever believed that the promises would be kept. My photos are linked below,

Letter: Democrats think bad news is good
The media consensus is that John McCain committed a blunder when the Dow plummeted more than 500 points and he opined, "I believe the economy is fundamentally sound."
I would argue that McCain was being presidential.
Barack Obama and the Democrats constantly harp on the theme that the nation's economy is crumbling and will evolve into a full-blown depression if they are not elected. How is this inspiring to the American public, which is already frightened and battle-weary over months of headlines screaming high gas prices, housing busts and financial markets going down in flames?
McCain proved his leadership by seeking to calm the jittery nerves of his fellow citizens by pointing out the fighting spirit for which Americans are famous. His belief in America's workers, along with our indomitable spirit, inspires confidence that we will again rise from hardships.
Democrats know that any good news, from the successful surge in Iraq to our Olympic victories in Beijing, spells defeat in November. For this reason, I believe, the liberal media and the Democratic Party have fanned the flames of discontent over the 19 months of the election cycle. This has eroded consumer confidence, which caused numerous businesses to fail, creating staggering unemployment.
True, the Bush administration is not totally blameless. But how can you deny the fact that since 2006 the Nancy Pelosi-led Congress has actually presided over this calamity — all in the hope that Obama will have an easy ride to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in November. If you examine the facts, you must conclude that Americans are hardest when times are toughest, and we will resist Democratic efforts to "change" us from a capitalist to a socialist society. That's not change I can believe in.
