Mineola Library Winter 2013-2014 Newsletter
Winter 2013 www.mineolalibrary.info HERBLOCK POLITICAL CARTOONIST "PRESIDENTS" EXHIBIT FEBRUARY 1- 28 IN THE HOBBS GALLERY Herbert Block (1909-2001), the political cartoonist better known as "Herblock," became the most honored cartoonist of his time, winning three Pulitzer Prizes. He was the only living cartoonist whose work was exhibited in the National Gallery of Art, and the only living cartoonist to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Herblock caricatured thirteen U.S. presidents, from Herbert Hoover to George W. Bush, chronicling American history from the 1929 Stock Market crash through summer 2001. Admired and feared by presidents and politicians, Herblock rarely befriended them. As the ultimate public servants in American political life, Herblock held U.S. presidents above all accountable to the people. His cartoons shed light on their ambitions and accomplishments while bringing their misjudgments and manipulations under scrutiny. Transcending party politics and ideology, he constantly reminded our elected leaders of their responsibility to serve the needs of all citizens, not just those who voted them into power. In conjunction with the Herb Block Foundation, we are honored to present an exhibit featuring the best of Herblock's Presidential cartoons. LABELS FOR EDUCATION During the month of January, you may once again bring in labels in exchange for fines on your library card. Each label is worth .25 cents in fines.

March 13, 2013Goldwasser and Micali win Turing Award - Team honored for revolutionizing the science of cryptography.MIT professors Shafi Goldwasser and Silvio Micali have won the Association for Computing Machinery's (ACM) A.M. Turing Award for their pioneering work in the fields of cryptography and complexity theory. Essentially laying the foundation for modern cryptography by formalizing the concept that cryptographic security had to be computational rather than absolute, the two have turned cryptography from an art into science -- and, in the process provided the basis for securing today's communications protocols, Internet transactions and cloud computing. They also made fundamental advances in the theory of computational complexity, an area that focuses on classifying computational problems according to their inherent difficulty.
March 13, 2013Researchers working with EECS faculty member and CSAIL principal investigator Samuel Madden, are developing a new system called DBSeer to address the realities of cloud computing -- particularly database applications requiring over expenditure for hardware.

Investing in the Stock Market vs. Spending Time and Money on Artwork
I am a person fast approaching mid 50s and this conclusion from years of trial and error experience is becoming more apparent. You have a much better chance at financial success by exploiting other peoples labor than you do working hard at something like creative artwork and design.
This week the stock market moved into record breaking territory. People are making all kinds of returns from investing their money in the stock market. A well diversified portfolio of investments will generally protect one against adverse risk and over the years has provided approximately a 10% return on investment. Whether you have easy money to invest or money you worked really hard to accumulate for investing you have very little work to do on top of the investing and managing your investments. In the stock market you make money (dividends) by exploiting other peoples hard work and labor.
Artwork on the other hand is something I have persistently continued to pursue. Spent four years of career training back in the 1970s for illustrating art and commercial art. I have never really made a living at artwork and never sold anything for any reasonable profit. I have spent thousands of hours working on paintings and drawings over the past 30 years (with ten years of not doing much). For me to pursue artwork the reality is to earn money outside of this field by working hard at some other form of labor and then use what you made there to invest in supplies to work even harder pursuing something that can become downright frustrating and aggravating as you become more serious about perfecting your work. There is an incredible amount of competition in this area for what opportunities are available. Therefore your risk is very high and adverse when investing your time and money into pursuing art. You also run a higher level of risk from having your work stolen by someone else, especially with anything shown on the internet. In conclusion artwork seems like very little return for a lot of work and extremely high risk involved.
As I draw close to retirement age and find myself with no money I realize that the time and money spent pursuing artwork was a waste of time and a serious mistake that will now cause me financial problems as I approach retirement. Was it something I enjoyed? In the roller coaster ups and downs I have experienced in life, the only time I have enjoyed working with art is when I have a lot of money for the freedom to do what I want and pay for living expenses providing more time to concentrate on artwork. During the difficult times it always seems like a waste of time and money. It seems to me that artwork is something that only the rich should pursue for fun and enjoyment. I'm sure there are exceptions where someone from a poor background becomes financially successful doing what they like as a professional artist yet the odds seem much better investing money in something where you exploit other peoples hard work and labor like the stock market and also a lot less work involved.

Hmm, it's kinda sad to me how something as free emotionally as artwork can just be analyzed in a statistical manner. The people who are successful at art are generally the people who love it more than anything and will do it happily regardless of whether they're getting paid or not.
I'm sorry that you've had such a bad experience with art and that it has left a bad taste in your mouth. I just hope that reading this won't ruin it for anybody else.

dude that's tough
sorry, i do not know if you are passing for the so called "mid fifties crisis" but, thats harsh ... you cannot just say that art is like that
art is more than thinking about getting rich and other stuff ... yeah of course we need money to live, but thats not about it... one thing is doing something to get money, other is doing sth because you like
I am gonna post and translate a really good text of one guy from here Brazil and what advice he has:
"Não paute sua vida, nem sua carreira, pelo dinheiro.
Ame seu ofício com todo o coração. Persiga fazer o melhor. Seja fascinado
pelo realizar, que o dinheiro virá como conseqüência.
Quem pensa só em dinheiro não consegue sequer ser nem um grande bandido,nem
um grande canalha.
Napoleão não invadiu a Europa por dinheiro.
Hitler não matou 6 milhões de judeus por dinheiro.
Michelangelo não passou 16 anos pintando a Capela Sistina por dinheiro.
E, geralmente, os que só pensam nele não o ganham. Porque são incapazes de
sonhar. E tudo que fica pronto na vida foi construído antes, na alma.
A propósito disso, lembro-me de uma passagem extraordinária, que descreve o
diálogo entre uma freira americana cuidando de leprosos no Pacífico e um
milionário texano. O milionário, vendo-a tratar daqueles leprosos, disse:
"Freira, eu não faria isso por dinheiro nenhum no mundo." E ela responde:
"Eu também não, meu filho".
Não estou fazendo com isso nenhuma apologia à pobreza, muito pelo
Digo apenas que pensar e realizar, tem trazido mais fortuna do que pensar
em fortuna. "
"Do not guide your life, neither your job, by money.
Love what you do with all you got. Thrive to be the best. Be fascinated about "doing", that money will come as consequence.
One who thinks only about money is not even able to be a good thief, nor a big jerk.
Napoleon did not invade Europe for money.
Hitler didn't kill 6 millions jewishs for money.
Michelangelo did not spent 16 years of his life painting the Sistine Chapel for money.
And usually, one who only thinks about money, ends up not getting it at all. Because they are incapable of dreaming. And everything that is done in life has been built before, in our own soul.
By the way, that reminds me of a extraordinary quote that describes the dialog between an female american priest watching for people with leprosis in the Pacific and a millionare from Texas. The millionaire, watching the lady taking care of all that needed people says:
"Lady, I would not do that not even for 1 million dollars". And the lady answers:
"Me neither my loved."
I am not doing an apology for poorness or something like that, it is exaclty the opposite of that.
I am just saying that thinking and doing, has been bringing more fortune that thinking about fortune."

Yeah, thats the translation. It is not perfect but I think you can get the gist.
Heres the link (in portuguese, you can put in google translator) of the text:
This text is awsome! Ive read it at least 10x.

Maybe when you die, your artwork will become extremely valuable and you will never have to worry about money again!

yes, i would say you are better off investing in the stock market. Because as everyone knows, money is the most important thing in life.

there are quite some people on these forums who gave up their well-paying jobs, for the sake of their art.

Stephen, what you are having is called a mid-life crisis. Many people have them, and it isnt necessarily something that happens right in the middle of your life. It doesnt have anything to do with art. Its simply that you are figuring out what to do with your remaining time by evaluating the time that you have already spent. Thats fine, but at some point you have to stop regretting past decisions that you cant change and move on with your life. If art isnt making you happy then yes, stop making art and go do something else.
I think you are awesome, and I wish you the best in your endeavors, but I am tired of repeating myself, I am very busy with my new baby, and I am no longer a regular participant here, so please do not contact me to ask for advice on your career or education. All of the advice that I have to offer can already be found in the following links. Thank you.

Thanks to everyone for your time in reading and replying here.
I love artwork so long as there is the money that buys the freedom to pursue and most important time (this stuff is very time consuming).
My experience may be helpful to younger people indecisive and juggling their own personal value judgments with respect to what direction in life will provide their objective in the future. This may be negative yet it is reality for me, if my abilities were marginal perhaps that is why I have failed. I am providing the truth, instead of positive encouragement. Investing in your future through a well diversified portfolio of investments is probably less risk and will pay back a reasonable return on investment instead of investing in a portfolio of artwork that might return some reasonable results from investment if you are super good at this and/or lucky.
April 23rd, 2007 #18
One other thing about my life that I would like to reveal is that I have wound up homeless on two occasions pursuing artwork and taking risks. My last horrible experience resulted in the destruction of many oil paintings, and years of work in natural media as a result of nowhere to store anything and no money to live anywhere. This also resulted in a serious problem with a fear of doing anything with artwork for some ten years. Although I have this addictive type passion for creating artwork it always seems to lead to this same cycle of a loosing streak. The ten years I stayed away from artwork and pursued making money at my best possible job opportunities things improved and I saved enough money through hard work to start through this same loosing cycle that currently has me broke again, hanging on for dear life. My college education in Accounting and everything learned about investing and finance makes me feel as though I have taken ridiculous risk with no return on investment and continuous loss. It's beginning to feel like the symptoms of someone with a gambling problem or drug addiction.

...if your above quote is true,..I would HIGHLY recommend you stick with your art, andstay away from the stock market...and Vegas too!!!

wow...very shallow analysis indeed. Great thing about art is you can trade on the stock market too, one doesn't negate the other. You can take and take in art everywhere you go in life, don't let it die by numbers in the rest of yours. I will never make a living making art, all you have to do is look at my sketchbook to know that, but I will make a life with art playing a major role.
Take your financial commentary to FOX News or something...

So the moral of this story is, why work hard at something when you can get other people to do it and just exploit them. Joking!
This may sound cliche but I create art for myself. There is a sense of achievment I enjoy when I am done working on something.

About the Owner
Cathie and I (not in the photo, because I always seem to be taking the pictures) own Tranquility along with our children, Andrew, Danny, Jacob and Katie and dogs Slider and Cleats. We are both school teachers (Cathie early childhood and myself secondary school) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. We try to keep our unit rented through low rates to help carry our mortgage - this is not a profit making venture by any stretch of the imagination.
Guestbook comments from the manager
We have been going to Myrtle Beach for years and have finally broken down and purchased a summer home there. We would love to share our vacation place with others who are interested in experiencing all of the fun and joys that Myrtle Beach has offered us over the years. If you are looking for a place to rent in Myrtle Beach, we would love to hear from you!

From the Owner
"We first started coming to Myrtle Beach in the early 1990s after getting married. My wife had great memories from her childhood. We enjoyed the variety of amenities (beach, golf, minigolf, shopping, entertainment) that the area offered, and after staying several times in the community of Oceanside Village decided that we would like to own a home in the community. Lots to do and lots of friendly people. The kids have a ball at the beach, my wife loves the shopping and I love to golf - a great destination that makes everyone happy."

"We chose Oceanside Village because of the many features that make it a convenient place to stay. We are only a 5 minute walk to the beach, and private beach parking is offered to Oceanside Village residents and guests. We are around the corner from the community's indoor pool, tennis courts, boche courts, basketball courts, playing field and playground. Easy for our kids to play in a safe and fun environment."

U.S. Ford offered three types of Dagenham transmissions which are L/H side-loaders p/n: 212E-7006F.
Dagenhams are similar to the English Ford 211E/213E and U.S. 3 speed 2.77 / 3.07 trans ( designations are not gear ratios).
Replacement Gaiters are easily sourced from Ford parts suppliers, or ebay. $15-$24. They fit tightly in the Bell Housing and Fork. Smear vaseline on the Gaiter for easier installation, being careful not to poke thru the rubber. Use a worn, wide-blade screw driver to help maneuver the gaiter into place.
This replacement Gaiter may not work on the EOTA / EOTTA and 211E /213E Bell Housing. Measure the Bell Housing opening and Clutch Fork. I don't have access to these types.

Originally written on Larry Brown Sports | Last updated 11/19/14
After the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Washington Redskins back on Oct. 28, Mike Shanahan thought he had been robbed of more than just a victory. Shanahan left his passport and $3,700 in an unsecured locker at Heinz Field during the game, and after the game was over they were nowhere to be found. According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Shanahan was "visibly upset" when talking to security but was assured that the locker room was secured while the game was being played. Shanahan decided to file a police report after speaking with the Redskins' security director. Then, the report was withdrawn. Shanahan or one of his representatives called back the next day after discovering that the missing property had been stored in another bag. We have all been there and had that moment of panic when we know for certain in our heads that we left something somewhere and realize it is gone. I would imagine it's even easier to misplace something when you're the head coach of an NFL team are are thinking about the upcoming game. The important thing here? There are no thieves within the confines of the Heinz Field locker rooms. At least not yet. H/T Deadspin

Do as the restaurant does, and serve this with sweetened whipped cream.
Leave a Review
I made this for Thanksgiving yesterday on a whim. My FIL loves my bread pudding and thought I would surprise him with this. It was EXCEPTIONAL!!! SO good!!! I used a 29 ounce can of pumpkin, and heavy whipping cream since I ran out of half and half.. I also didn't have the golden raisins and used regular raisins. YOU MUST make the Carmel sauce it definitely makes it even better (for adults only I would add rum or whiskey to the sauce for a little extra kick) Definitely a keeper!
This recipe calls for too much bread! I would make this again and try 6 cups of bread cubes so that all the pudding gets soaked in.
So delicious! I used Challah bread like some of the reviews said and it came out great! This could even be eaten for breakfast. A very sweet and warm dessert perfect for fall!
This is a GREAT recipe!! Instead of the egg bread, I used cinnamon raisin bread, then just omitted the raisins. I also baked it in a 9x13 because I didn't have the pan the recipe it called for. Everyone LOVED it and I'm eating leftovers right now! This is a definite for Thanksgiving and Christmas!
Made this as written and it's excellent. It's so good that I think about eating the leftovers all day. The caramel sauce is necessary and adds a great flavor to the bread pudding. would definitely make this again.

This was a nice change from the usual Thanksgiving pumpkin pie, but I did make a couple of changes. I used a good quality Tuscan loaf and based on previous reviews, I cut the sugar back to half a cup. I was pretty sure the caramel sauce would add enough sweetness to the pudding and it definitely did! I also substituted cranberries for the golden raisins and they looked very pretty and gave it a nice bit of tartness.
So yummy and easy! I used challah bread. The caramel sauce definitely completed the recipe, but there is another carmel/rum sauce recipe on this site that I think I'd use next time to add to it.
Made this exactly as writted with the exception I could not find egg bread, but I found something called "french toast bread" which was a thick-slice maple flavored bread. Rave reviews all around, my husband said this is the best dessert I've ever made.
This is one of my families favorite holiday recipes. We make it for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even if you are not a fan of pumpkin...or bread pudding, you will love this.
