The Observation Deck
A blog of opinions on local, state and national issues
Trail over rail is best plan
Our opinion: New York officials offer a misguided Solomonesque approach to the debate over rails and trails in the Adirondacks. Rail trails are flourishing across upstate New York, capitalizing on hundreds of miles of abandoned railroad rights of way that have been reborn as multi-use, year-round recreational corridors for cycling, running, walking, rollerblading, cross-country skiing […] [Read More]
New York can still fix this
Our opinion: New Yorkers shouldn't have to settle for the not-so-independent redistricting commission state lawmakers and the governor offered last year. Other states show it can be done better. For a look at how far politicians will go to protect their power, New Yorkers should consider the redistricting fight the government of Arizona waged against […] [Read More]
A smart ban on fracking
Our opinion: With a new study finding evidence of chemicals in many water wells in a fracking-intense part of Texas, New York's ban on this form of drilling is all the more prudent. New York had a choice: Whether to prohibit fracking, or allow this state to become a living laboratory for an unconventional drilling […] [Read More]
To bare or not to bare: The feminist dilemma over breasts
"Women who have tried to breast-feed a screaming infant in public as random men try to sneak a peek at their lady parts know what it feels like to want to stab someone in the eye," writes Shikha Dalmia at Reason. "But they shouldn't look for sensible solutions from their sisters on Capitol Hill or […] [Read More]
Neutral jurists or party faithfuls?
With the exception of Chief Justice John Roberts' decision to side with the majority in a ruling upholding Obamacare subsidies, the Supreme Court continued to reveal a clear ideological divide in a recent flurry of big decisions, notes Vin Bonventre on his New York Court Watcher blog. Which raises the question, Bonventre writes, of whether […] [Read More]
For the right, what lies post-Coulter?
Not long ago, Ann Coulter "was riding high, perhaps the most famous polemicist of her day, the scourge of liberals everywhere and the fantasy of young conservative men's dreams. And then suddenly, she was nowhere," writes Heather Digby for Salon. While "the most deliciously vicious of all the haters" may retain a fan base, many […] [Read More]
Is this any way to treat a president?
The criticism of President George W. Bush in his second term was in many instances "beyond the pale," writes Michael Smerconish at the Huffington Post. But the treatment of President Barack Obama since his first swearing has been "exponentially worse," from the birther controversy to accusations of racism to a heckling and slurs from members […] [Read More]
Not uttering word promotes the fear
The n-word is certainly the most offensive characterization of African-Americans in the English language. The Times Union has refused in the past to print my letters suggesting that we need to get past our fear of seeing the actual word in print, or it being used verbally in a reporting context. Thankfully, President Barack Obama […] [Read More]

Not really into the typical Richmond bar scene, but enjoy lots of bars/restaurants downtown.
I like being outside when the weather is nice; whether it's at my parents pool or the ocean. When it's a rainy day, I like to watch movies on the projector screen or maybe play some Xbox RockBand. You pick the instrument!
I like all kinds of movies/ TV shows...if you're a movie/ TV buff then we can talk about this for hours. I love the water: the beach, the pool, it's a great way to relax. Going for walks, eating outside @cafe's, chillin.
I like self help and financial books, and have also read Dan Brown's books (DaVinci Code). Last Read: More recently...lol. Bill O'Reilly Killing Lincoln, Glenn Beck Arguing with Idiots and Common Sense

by Durastanti, Sylvie
Publisher:Abbeville Press
In awesome photographs that reviewers have said look like paintings, Sonja Bullaty and Angelo Lomeo have captured the enchantment of Venice and the allure of the nearby area, the Veneto.
Following their celebrated books -- Provence and Tuscany -- the photographers portray the watery realm of Venice with their style, skill, and sense of humor, providing dreamlike views of well-known scenes and images of less familiar places. Their photographs reveal the city's and the Veneto's unique light, textures, and colors.
Organized thematically, the pictorial chapters include incomparable views of the city of gondolas, with its buildings rising from the Adriatic; the heralded Piazza San Marco, where the scene is both ever-changing and timeless; delightful sculptures of lions and fabled beasts; shops offering masks for the Carnevale; the beckoning outlying islands; and beyond, the architecture and natural beauty of the Veneto, which includes Palladian palaces, mountain lakes, and the Dolomites. The photographers have been admiring Venice for three decades, always returning from their trips with pictures of new discoveries, and their most outstanding images are included in this remarkable collection.
The lively text presents impressions of visits to Venice over the centuries by notable writers, artists, musicians, and others, including Canaletto, Turner, Casanova, Le Corbusier, Thomas Mann, Marcel Proust, Henry James, and Lord Byron. This is the ideal gift book for those who have experienced the magic of Venice and long to return, as well as for those who look forward to exploring this fabled city one day.

Gateball takes over where croquet left off
Lawn bowls and cricket are just two of the British sports that have taken root in the city. A more unusual pursuit associated with the colonial era has also found a home here via a transformation in Japan: gateball.13 Jul 2006 - 12:00am
Onion crushed as Zen power gets hammered
We've held off mentioning the forthcoming Tokyo Shock Boys show next month but we felt the arrival of an onion in this morning's post was worthy of a few lines.

They tried different outdoor sports and games, including lawn bowls, gateball and shooting.31 Oct 1996 - 12:00am

Anytime FitnessRead MoreNovice calorie burners and ripped Michelangelo models alike can take advantage of Anytime Fitness?s two-month membership (a $30 value per month), which equips bodies with enough treadmills, cycles, elliptical machines, and weights to make them fit enough to run a marathon inside of a swimming pool filled with mud, while a personal training session (a $30 value) familiarizes sheepish biceps with their new, confidence-boosting dumbbell friends. Highlight the results of fat-frying and muscle-mass-magnifying with two months of unlimited tanning (an $11 value per month) to paint new, ripply physiques a brilliant shade of bronze. As an added bonus, the activation fee for a new membership is waived.1177 Gravois RdFenton, MO US
24 Hour FitnessRead MoreArmed with various facilities, group classes, and state-of-the-art equipment, 24 Hour Fitness molds amorphous adobe muscles into rock-solid flesh houses. The clubs come divided into different types; two of the locations are of the active category, with cardio equipment, free weights, and strength machines, or the sport type, which may offer indoor lap pools, full-sized basketball courts, and saunas. The gym also hosts group exercise classes in all locations so social gym junkies can motivate each other and debate Dostoyevsky?s original diet plan. Group cycling sessions burn calories and increase energy levels, and hip-hop and the Latin dance-influenced Zumba classes present fun, dynamic alternatives to slim meat suits.215 Arnold Crossroads CtrArnold, MO US
Yoga in ColumbiaRead MoreFounded by certified yoga instructor Jami Marsoun, Yoga in Columbia is a light-filled yoga studio dedicated to bringing the health benefits of yoga to the community. Offering yoga classes for all levels of yogis, from first-timers to kids to advanced students, the instructors demonstrate the strength- and flexibility-boosting moves of Vinyasa-style yoga. With its wood floors and exposed brick walls, Yoga in Columbia is a calming spot to begin or continue along an intentional yoga journey.109 W. GundlachColumbia, IL US
Curves St. LouisRead MoreAs they enter the training circuit at Curves, female guests come face-to-face with the smiles of other women. And just as points on a circle share a common distance from the circle's center, workout participants share the experiences of those nearby by trading stations throughout the 30-minute training session. Thirty seconds is spent on a piece of strength-training equipment built for feminine frames and designed to work two opposing muscle groups with a single movement. Exercisers then move on to a recovery station, where they run, jog, or dance to maintain heart rates and keep platforms in place during momentary losses of gravity.12660 Lamplighter Sq.St. Louis, MO US
ZFit StudioRead MoreThe sound of thumping bass greets guests at ZFit Studio, where instructors lead a slew of high-energy fitness classes. Sessions are overseen by a diverse staff of experienced instructors who boast backgrounds in dancing, yoga, and Zumba instruction. Outdoors or on their gleaming studio's hardwood floors, instructors lead a variety of heart-pumping classes, including Latin-dance-infused Zumba workouts and energizing yoga sessions. To keep their patrons engaged in exercising, they strive to develop workouts that are both fitness enhancing and exciting, much like doing arm curls while skydiving.300 Biltmore Dr.Fenton, MO US
Central Institute for Human PerformanceRead MoreIt's fitting that the Central Institute for Human Performance is located inside a restored high-school building. Since the original lockers still line the hallways and the Karel Lewit Clinic for rehabilitation sits in what used to be the administrative offices, the glossy walls and floors often remind visitors of their athletic dreams when they once strolled through their own high schools. While the rehabilitation clinic treats injuries and physical trauma, the immaculate and spacious gym helps athletes improve or maintain their physical well-being. Fitness instructors challenge their students through innovative, small-group classes such as Strongman workouts. The center's consulting team, which earned a nod from Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak, offers nutritional guidance and lifestyle coaching to help members reach their goals. Professional jerseys hang above modern equipment to further inspire athletes to dream big and remember to pick up their dry cleaning.1099 Milwaukee St Ste 210Kirkwood, MO US

Ah – The internet! A place full of wonderful information, stores, and even free stuff. One of my favorite things to get for free online are e cards.
You CAN pay for them, but why? There are so many cool free ones available, and for every occasion available. From Birthdays, to Anniversaries, to Christmas, to St. Patricks Day there is an e card for every occasion. Here are three fun ways to use them (and don't forget to check out the link at the bottom – where you can get your e cards completely FREE!)
#1 Creative Thing To Do With Free Online Electronic Cards
Send a card for no occasion at all – just to make someone smile.
While there are plenty of occasion cards online (national oatmeal day anyone???). There are also tons of e cards that simply say I like you, I love you, or I'm glad your my friend. Send one of these, finish it with a personal message, and you will have made someones day.
#2 Creative Thing To Do With Free Online Electronic Cards
Acknowledge the wacky holidays – national oatmeal day is real!
Just Google "unusual holidays" and you will come up with an astounding list. One for nearly every day of the year. Most of these strange and unusual holidays have equally strange and unusual free e cards available to send, and if they don't you can convert a more traditional greeting with a personal message. After all, who wouldn't love to get a greeting for "toss your fruitcake in the air day"?
#3 Creative Thing To Do With Free Online Electronic Cards
Revive the lost art of Thank You Cards.
When someone does something nice for you, it's a really nice gesture to send a thank you card. There are plenty to choose from, and sending a free card online is a lot faster and easier than sending a hand written note (which you should still send for the big things). Believe me a Thank You will be well appreciated!

Alan Jackson Puts $5M Lake Property on the Market

Alan Jackson's lake house is up for sale for a cool $5million! After seeing the pictures of it, I wonder what is every day house looks like!
Remember Billy Gilman? The child prodigy that had the hit song One Voice back in the early 2000s? Well, he's all grown up now and doing some pretty significant things. Like bringing a slew of country artists together for one cause.
Alan Jackson is preparing to release his first record on his own label, Alan Country Records, alongside EMI Records. And while it may be his first album on his own label, 'Thirty Miles West' is actually the star's 17th studio release. 'Thirty Miles West,' out this summer, seems to
While several of the biggest 2012 ACM Awards will be doled out April 1 during the live telecast on CBS, time restrictions keep the other honorees from being awarded on-camera. For those awards that won't make the televised time slot — Special Awards, Industry Awards, Musician, Bandleader and Instrumentalist (MBI) and Songwriter of the Year — the Academy of Country Music is hosting its sixth annual ACM Honors event on Sept. 24, 2012, in Nashville.
The first grand stand acts for this year's Minnesota State Fair have been announced.
Country music legend Alan Jackson will perform on Friday, August 24th. An opening act will be announced later
Alan Jackson has signed on to hang out with Jay Leno and perform 'So You Don't Have to Love Me Anymore' on 'The Tonight Show' Friday March 30th. I know it's a ways out yet so set your DVR now. Check out the official video for his latest single on the next page.
Alan Jackson walks up and down the pier at Coney Island longing for love, or his missing mustache, in the new 'So You Don't Have to Love Me Anymore' video. While the legend's facial hair has been going through somewhat of a transition in recent months, the clip below is the first official release in recent memory featuring a sheared Jackson.
Alan Jackson was the subject of last night's 'Backstory' on GAC, and the singer's relationship with wife Denise was a focal point of the episode. Alan and Denise have been married since 1979, so their relationship factors heavily in his career and his music. The duo endured their fair share of ups and downs since that fateful meeting at a Dairy Queen, but through it all, they remain stronger than ever.
Sunday evening (October 16), the best of the best in Nashville's songwriting community gathered at the Renaissance Hotel in the heart of Music City, where dozens of tunesmiths were recognized at the 41st Anniversary Hall of Fame Dinner and Induction Ceremony. The top honors at the invite-only event went to Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, John Bettis, Thom Schuyler and Allen Shamblin, who were all inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Alan Jackson wrote a song following the September 11th attacks in 2001 called 'Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning' that every American could relate to. It was a song that gave words to the feelings that we didn't know how to express.
So I am now asking you to remember that day with me by telling your story - Where were you that September day?
This morning Nashville Kat told us to look the next time you see Alan Jackson's video for 'Mercury Blues,' and check out the blond guitar player in the shadows. It looks like a girl but it's Keith Urban.
Well, here's the video but...really?! It's hard to tell, but if that's Keith Urban he's had a nose job...or something. Do YOU think that's Keith Urban?
In the days after the September 11 attacks, Alan Jackson put his emotions into song with 'Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning),' an eventual country number one hit that also broke into the top 30 on the pop charts.
Ten years later, the track is regarded as one of the defining moments of Jackson's career — and he has been asked to perform it at the upcoming Concert for Hope, held to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 9/11.

I like to spend time meeting new people and spending time with old friends as well. I love checking out new restaurants in town (so many to choose from). I love going to the park on nice days, and watching movies on the couch on rainy ones (preferably with a snuggle buddy). I love yoga. I love getting out to see live music as often as possible! Music is my life.
I have a casual style about me. I prefer Uggs or Rainbows to heels and business suits. I've actually never owned a suit.
I love getting to the beach (Ocean Isle) or mountains any chance I get.
I'm a big animal lover. I have 2 cats that I rescued. I would like to get a dog again soon.
Basically I love where I live, I know it well but there's always something new to explore and that would be more fun with a fun partner! I'm looking for "my person". Someone who gets it. Who gets me and visa versa. Someone I can feel 100% comfortable with.
Let's see what happens!

I used Salba for months, but switched to Chia after having my father (a farmer in Costa Rica) grow Salba seeds, which were actually mislabeled Chia seeds anyway at 3x the price. So far I am happy. They taste the same, the packaging is good, delivery was fast, & the price was good. I'll order from here again unless I find an organic seller. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because it's not organic, but that's not iHerb's fault, they didn't claim it was organic.

Cramer during Friday's Stop Trading! said he has been struggling all day for some – any – arguments or ideas that could put what Wall Street sees as a terrible jobs report into perspective.
"And I haven't yet come up with them," he said.
Cramer during Friday's Stop Trading! said he has been struggling all day for some – any – arguments or ideas that could put what Wall Street sees as a terrible jobs report into perspective.
"And I haven't yet come up with them," he said.
Of the 431,000 jobs created in May, just 20,000 came from private industry. The rest were the result of hiring for this year's census. Cramer had said yesterday that a disappointing number would cause a sell-off, and that's just what happened, with the Dow plummeting over 300 points.
The news was especially bad, Cramer said, because it threatened the US's standing as the one bright spot in the world economy. With Europe suffering an enormous debt crisis and China's government forcing a slowdown to cool off its real estate bubble, the rebounding American market offered a lone haven for investors. With Friday's jobs report, the US's prospects seemed unable to outweigh the trouble in Europe and China.
But this is "not the end of the world," Cramer said. "We just have to be a little extra cautious."
He told viewers to return to the high-yielding dividends stocks that he has been recommending, like Kinder Morgan Energy Partners and Altria . He said he also likes General Mills and Hershey , both of which have hit 52-week highs today, because they are deflationary plays with little euro exposure. And finally, he endorsed the preferred shares of both Ford and Chesapeake Energy.
"That's what's going to work here," Cramer said.
When this story published, Cramer's charitable trust owned Altria.

Araraduin is the only gas giant in the Ottega system. Many people believe that this planet should have been a second star for the system but for some reason it was not able to capture enough material, when it formed, to start converting hydrogen to helium as stars normally do.
This planet has a very small liquid core at the center. The gasses in this gas giant are very dense, they swirl together to form a yellow-orange haze, at the center of the planet. Many people stop here on their way to see the jungles of Ithor. Though people do not spend nearly as much time here, there are still many sights to take in.
There have never been any attempts to settle this gas giant or any attempts to mine the very lucrative gasses in the atmosphere of this gas giant. This planet remained unknown to the Republic until the second attempt to map the galaxy. Apparently, the scanner chief fell asleep when they scanned this area of the system the first time. Although the people of Ithor knew there was another planet out there, they did not tell the people from the Republic that there was. The Ithorians at one time thought they might be able to use it to hide incase the Republic did not turn out to be as nice as it had seemed on their first encounter.

Jan Brewer leads 'constitutional throwdown' against DREAM Act-lite
Jan Brewer, Arizona governor, is again taking on the White House, saying young illegal immigrants covered under a new Obama plan can't get state benefits. It could lead to legal wranglings.
Nick Oza/The Arizona Republic/AP
Continuing a longstanding feud with the federal government, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer on Wednesday ordered state agencies to withhold driver's licenses and other state benefits from young illegal immigrants applying for the Obama administration's new deportation deferrals. The decision marks a new chapter in the "constitutional throwdown" between the White House and states vowing to "get tough" on illegal immigration.
President Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which took effect Wednesday, allows as many as 2 million illegal immigrants who were brought to the US as children and meet several other criteria to apply for a two-year deportation deferral. The directive also makes them eligible for work permits and college tuition help.
But Governor Brewer's executive order – which could affect 80,000 people in Arizona – points to challenges ahead.
It amplifies lingering questions about the kind of protection illegal immigrants will get as they apply for the new benefit, and whether coming forward could backfire if Mr. Obama loses his reelection campaign in November. Moreover, it suggests that conservatives are intent on pushing back as hard as they can against a program Brewer has defined as an illegal backdoor "amnesty."
Brewer's revolt centers around her attempt to defy a basic federal law, the Real ID Act, in which Congress listed "deferred action" recipients as being eligible to receive driver's licenses. Real ID was passed in 2005 to improve license security after 9/11, but 20 states, including Arizona, continue to fight the law, saying it doesn't give enough leeway to states. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who will ultimately oversee DACA, fought for the repeal of Real ID in 2009, saying it had proved unworkable and unpopular.
The order "is an act of defiance and a constitutional throwdown," says Michael Olivas, an immigration-law expert at the University of Houston. "The fact is, there is no gray area as to deferred action. Once someone is given that, they have to be given a driver's license."
Brewer, who in January raised her finger to the president's face during a tense encounter on an Arizona airport runway, disagrees.
Undocumented immigrants "are here illegally and unlawfully in the state of Arizona, and it's already been determined that you're not allowed to have a driver's license if you are here illegally," the governor said in a press conference. "The Obama amnesty plan doesn't make them legally here."Â
Arizona, under Brewer, became a leading force in the anti-illegal immigration movement by passing Senate Bill 1070, which included tough measures designed to shrink the numbers of illegal immigrants. Several other states including Georgia and Alabama followed suit, sparking legal showdowns between the states and the US Department of Justice. This summer, the US Supreme Court struck down most of SB 1070, but retained one key provision: the ability of police officers to ask for identification from those they suspect are in the country illegally.
Brewer's latest move could be part of an effort to build support in Congress and other states to challenge the constitutionality of DACA, which critics say goes beyond the White House's constitutional purview. Rep. Lamar Smith (R) of Texas, for example, has called DACA "a breach of faith with the American people and the rule of law."Â
Brewer's order "is a broader challenge to the federal government, because this [Obama] order, this policy, is clearly illegal," says Mark Krikorian, director of the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates stronger immigration laws and enforcement. "It's trying to set up a confrontation that will focus not just on Governor Brewer's order but on the illegality of the president's policy."
"In a way, I think they're kind of hoping that the Justice Department will sue them before the election," he says.Â
Some observers suggest that the Obama administration will move swiftly to block state efforts to withhold benefits from successful DACA applicants.
"I believe the Obama administration is going to come out and say we're changing the notes and tones of our directive, and say these kids are here under the color of law and protected by US immigration laws and due process, and/or they have a specific nonvisa immigrant category that allows them to have a driver's license," Arizona immigration attorney Jose Penalosa told KSAZ-TV on Thursday.
The president has said the policy is legal because the mechanisms for it are already in place and require no new bureaucracy or funding to implement. Expenses will be refunded, he says, through a $465 application fee.
