Budget Cuts in Pennsylvania – We Need The American Jobs Act
My name is Todd Smeltz. I am an educator, parent and taxpayer in the Upper Dauphin Area School District in Pennsylvania where my children attend school. I have a son in the 8th grade and a daughter in 1st grade, and I teach high school chemistry. My wife also teaches in the district, elementary learning support (grades K-2). Due to the budget crunch last year, our district furloughed teachers and dropped positions that teachers retired from. It saddens me to teach in these times after 22 years of experience.
Due to budget cuts, my middle-school son went back to school with a computer program instead of a foreign language teacher for his World Languages class. A teacher certified in physical education monitors the class while the students sit at computers trying to learn Spanish. Our high school students will not be able to take French and will be limited to German and Spanish. My son also doesn't have a Science class—the math teacher was furloughed and the Food and Consumer Science teacher has to cover math classes since she also has 7-9 math certification.
My first-grade daughter no longer has computer class and limited library access—the librarian was furloughed and the middle school librarian has to "cover" the elementary library as well. The district has no nurse at all for the last 45 minutes of the elementary school day. The superintendent's response is that was that we have people trained in CPR—not comforting to me as a parent, knowing that emergencies can happen at the end of the day as easily as they can any other time.
Our district also cut a high school English teacher, so our students have larger class sizes in a critical subject area. We also cut a music position, making it more difficult for students to participate at all ages.
I see quality education in our district disintegrating -- and, those that suffer the most are our children. They need our support.
America's education system has always been one of our greatest sources of strength and global economic competitiveness, as well as the engine of incredible progress in science, technology and the arts. We cannot expect to train our children for the high-skilled jobs of today, or for the opportunities of the future, without investments in a world-class education system. States are still reeling from the recession and their budget woes are having a devastating impact on schools and students. That is why the federal government needs to provide more emergency education funding to states and localities.
As many as 280,000 education jobs are on the chopping block in the upcoming school year due to continued state budget constraints. As Todd's personal story shows, these cuts have a significant impact on children's education, through the reduction of school days, increased class size, and the elimination of key classes and services. The President's plan will support state and local efforts to retain, rehire, and hire early childhood, elementary, and secondary educators (including teachers, guidance counselors, classroom assistants, afterschool personnel, tutors, and literacy and math coaches).
These efforts will help ensure that schools are able to keep teachers in the classroom, preserve or extend the regular school day and school year, and also support important after-school activities. These funds would help states and localities such as Upper Dauphin School District avoid and reverse their layoffs now, requiring that funds be drawn down quickly. Under the President's proposal, $1,155,300,000 in funds would go to Pennsylvania to support the hiring and retention up to 14,400 educator jobs. The American Jobs Act will ensure that Todd's children can go back to their schools with all of the teachers, classes, and support they need to compete in the 21st century economy. Now is the time to invest in our teachers and our students' knowledge in technology, computers, foreign languages, and other key skills that districts across the country are cutting.
President Obama believes that America cannot win the future if its teachers are not where they belong—at the chalkboards or the Smart Boards in our classrooms, teaching our nation's children. That's why he put forward a plan—the American Jobs Act—that will provide support for nearly 400,000 education jobs, enough for states to avoid harmful layoffs, rehire tens of thousands of teachers who lost their jobs over the past three years, preserve or extend the regular school day and school year, and support important after-school activities.

Be yourself...everyone else is already taken
I'm a Register Nurse, been in Las Vegas for about 4 years now. I came here as a travel nurse and this city just wont let me go!! I love my job but it does take up a bit of my time. I am originally from central Wisconsin and I realized a long time ago that I'm a baby when it's cold for a long period of time. I am looking for new friends and possibly more but I believe a friendship is a must first. Not interested in one night deals...not here for that. I have found that it is not easy to meet decent people in this city. I have always been a pretty independent person. Honesty goes a long way. I am pretty easy going. Love to socialize but love my nights IN just as much as my nights OUT. I am a spontaneous person who likes to have a plan, if that makes any sense. I love to laugh. I love to watch sports live and on tv, doesn't matter what age, pro or not, I enjoy it. I am not a high maintenance person. I'm comfortable in sweats with no make up but I do like getting dressed up to go out. I could claim to be shy but that would be a huge lie. I am not afraid to say it like it is :) What you see is what you get. Well that pretty much sums it up, so have at it....

George Lucas introduced the world to Star Wars back in 1977, and he profited handsomely from it. Now, after selling the mega-franchise to Disney for $4.05 billion, Lucas is preparing to give back in a big way.
In a statement released to The Hollywood Reporter, a Lucasfilm spokesperson said that once the sale is final, the Hollywood billionaire will donate most of the haul to charity: "George Lucas has expressed his intention, in the event the deal closes, to donate the majority of the proceeds to his philanthropic endeavors."
The move isn't a complete surprise (although the sale may have been). Lucas signed on to Bill Gates and Warren Buffett's Giving Pledge back in July of 2010, promising to give at least half of his wealth away by the time of his death.
In Pictures: Billionaires Who've Signed The Giving Pledge
"I am dedicating the majority of my wealth to improving education," Lucas wrote in his pledge letter. "It is the key to the survival of the human race. We have to plan for our collective future — and the first step begins with the social, emotional, and intellectual tools we provide to our children. As humans, our greatest tool for survival is our ability to think and to adapt — as educators, storytellers, and communicators our responsibility is to continue to do so."
Lucas founded the George Lucas Educational Foundation and the website Edutopia to reform and improve K-12 education. The foundation emphasizes hands-on, project-based learning over plodding devotion to standardized tests and traditional textbooks. It highlights innovative teaching efforts that are already working in classrooms. You can read more about Lucas' efforts in a Q&A with Forbes' Luisa Kroll.
While Lucas may choose to donate the billions he made from selling Lucasfilm to a broader range of efforts, it is likely that a large portion will be distributed to this cause. And when Lucas does make that donation official, he will have placed himself into rarified company among philanthropists. Only a select few billionaires will have given away as much as he plans to. While his $4 billion won't get him as far as Gates or Buffett, who have donated more than $45 billion combined, Lucas is following their example and should reach the next tier of biggest givers.
George Soros has given over $8 billion and Intel founder Gordon Moore has donated more than $6 billion. The wealthiest man in the world, Carlos Slim Helu, has reached $4 billion and counting. Lucas will also join other major philanthropists like Eli Broad, George Kaiser, and Michael Bloomberg among those giving back more than a billion dollars total to charitable efforts.
In Pictures: The Most Generous People In America
It's an admirable goal for the world's richest film director. After tickling the imaginations of kids everywhere with lightsabers and the Millenium Falcon, maybe now he can focus all of his attention on helping those same kids learn and thrive in the classroom.

30 year old woman | Medford, MA, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles
Women don't respect salad eaters.
I'm very outgoing and always looking to try new things. I grew up about a half hour northwest of Boston and have lived near the city for about 4 years now. I've been teaching for 2 years and love it, although I think it took my parents by surprise when I went that route while my 5 siblings went towards the engineering field (somebody will have to take care of all their socially awkward children, right?---this is a joke..it seems I need to clarify that, ha) I keep busy whether it be tutoring or volunteering at mass gen or just going out with my friends and catching up on a painting I started the week before. (The painting thing is fairly new and just something I've picked up and enjoyed figuring out on my own.) I also love staying active and have played soccer through bssc for the last few years, only taking a breather this season because my schedule changed. I should warn you, I have a freakish memory and may quote movies or Seinfled/Office episodes (ahem, my headline in case anyone hadn't picked up on that) on a regular basis. I am looking for someone who is confident in who they are, has a positive/open-minded outlook, family oriented and enjoys keeping busy (but saves room for movie nights, too!).
I have a few comfort zones, but I'm always up for trying new places!
University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT
Starbucks on Sunday with a book, froyo, painting, walking around town/north end, or local davis/ harvard sq, meeting ppl (new friends) in the most unlikely places, martinis, laughing for hours with my fam, live music, bike riding, fire pits in RI
Altho browsing book stores is a pastime I enjoy, I find good book suggestions come just as easily by watching a lil tube and considering the previews for upcoming movies - thus I have recently read Water for Elephants, Hunger Games, Life of Pi

1861-S Paquet Twenty, AU Details1861-S $20 Paquet -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. AU. Anthony Paquet's few designs for the Mint show a commonality with elongated top and bottom serifs of the letters. The Paquet-designed 1865 pattern quarter shows these same taller letters. Specifically, by lengthening the serifs on the E's this creates two nearly enclosed spaces divided by the middle serif. Letters that have two downward or upward strokes -- A, R, Q, M, D, U -- will alternate thick and thin strokes, as on M, A, U, or else have two thick strokes, as on D, Q, R. Exposed serifs, as on L and E, are exaggerated to make them as long as possible.
Well Defined and Minimally Abraded
Well Defined and Minimally Abraded
While the Paquet Reverse twenty dollar legends are different in execution, the overall style is unmistakably the same -- an arch, quasi-Gothic approach to font creation that adds to the appeal of these coins. The Paquet Reverse twenties made at the San Francisco Mint to the extent of 19,250 pieces all apparently slipped quietly into circulation, and the issue today is unknown in Mint State. The finest certified examples at NGC and PCGS are coins in the AU55-AU58 range.
The acquisition of a Paquet Reverse double eagle is a milestone accomplishment for most collectors. The present example is well detailed and shows remarkably few abrasions for a coin that has such a lowered rim. The surfaces are otherwise uniformly subdued in appearance, a result of cleaning. Each side has light yellow-rose patina.(Registry values: N7079) (NGC ID# 269L, PCGS# 8936)

Hernando-based First Regional system lassos 'cowboy country' librarian as director
Ed Hughes — a 30-year library veteran with experience in academic and public systems in what he calls the "cowboy country" of Idaho, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wyoming — takes the reins of the Hernando-based First Regional System on June 2.
Hughes also takes on challenges in North Mississippi, among them rising costs, growing demand for services and seeking additional funding from local governments strapped with flat revenues. But he says he's ready — and he won't miss those wild and woolly winters.
"I was attracted to the position at FRL by a great library system, strong local support for libraries, friendly people, cultural diversity, and — not least — a pleasant climate," said Hughes, director of the Rhinelander District Library in Wisconsin since 2008.
The system's board of trustees on Tuesday announced the selection of Hughes to succeed Catherine Nathan, who retired as director in October 2013. Judy Card, system youth services coordinator, has been serving as interim director.
"I've really enjoyed it," said Card. "The staff is positive and dedicated to providing outstanding library service to our patrons."
Hughes' selection followed a nationwide search. In the First Regional system are 13 busy branch libraries across DeSoto, Tunica, Tate, Panola and Lafayette counties.
"Ed's impressive experience and passion for public libraries served him well in our interview process," Evelyn Hubbard, board of trustees president, said in First Regional media release. "We are confident that in Ed Hughes we have found the ideal librarian to or lead First Regional Library into the future."
Hughes holds Bachelor of Arts and Masters in Library Science degrees from the University of Wisconsin.
His previous posts include circulation-technical services supervisor at the Rapid City Public Library in South Dakota, where he assisted with the opening of a new branch and an expansion to the main library. He also handled acquisitions at the University of Wisconsin and was head of cataloging at the College of Southern Idaho Library.
As First Regional chief from 2005, Nathan regularly made the rounds of city and county governments seeking fiscal year allocations. Last year, Nathan was unsuccessful in obtaining $42,525 beyond DeSoto County's fiscal 2014 allocation proposal; supervisors, citing budget constraints, kept the sum the same at $1,307,475.
"We all have financial challenges and we're trying to meet those challenges together," said Supervisor Lee Caldwell of Nesbit, president of the county governing board. "We're looking into new ways, new trains of funding for our library system.
"First Regional is one of our greatest assets," said Caldwell. "It's a lot more than checking out books; for many people, our public libraries are their only access to the Internet, and now job searches and applications are almost all online."
In fiscal 2012, from Oct. 1, 2011, to Sept. 30, 2012, there were 1,368,345 visitors to First Regional branches poring over 727,246 collection items and having access to 2.9 million titles through the Mississippi Library Partnership. Since 2004, computer use in DeSoto branches alone has soared 144 percent, according to staff estimates.
Caldwell, a DeSoto County Schools educator, said Hughes "will bring a lot of innovations" to the system.
"We had a good partnership with Catherine, and we're looking to continuing that with Ed Hughes," said Supervisor Mark Gardner of Southaven.
"I think his experience and his vision of libraries will be a true asset to the library system," said Card.

Brabander goat's milk gouda is made in the Brabant region of southern Holland from the pasteurized milk of Saanen goats. The wheels are aged for around six months under thie direction of Betty Koster who runs Fromagerie L'amuse, Amsterdam's best cheese shop. What's especially interesting about the aging of these wheels is that it's done in a facility that has very little climate control, like cheese rooms used to be. For a few days in the summer they might turn on the air conditioning to keep it from overheating, but otherwise the cheese is allowed to mature at whatever seasonal conditions happen to blow through the windows. The old-school environmentally-low-impact aging makes cheese that has seasonality and takes a careful palate to master.
And that's what really interests us—the flavor. It's outstanding. The taste is sweet with long, deep notes of caramel as well as some bright notes and hints of grass and hay. It's buttery and tastes fresh, in spite of its age. Brabander is great for a cheese tray or for grilled cheese sandwiches. Cut it in cubes and toss with fresh greens, toasted nuts and slices of apple.
"Like a goat gouda milkshake."
Patrick, Bainbridge Island Washington
I can't say enough great things about this cheese! It's as beautiful as it is delicious. This goat's milk cheese is a lovely porcelain color, like fine bone china and the flavor matches in it's delicate savoriness. The wheels we're currently cutting into have incredibly bright, fruity notes that remind me of pineapple and blueberries. Outstanding.

Brokeback Mountain Soundtrack
Argentina-born, California-based Gustavo Santaolalla helped shape the rock en Español movement by producing Mexican bands Molotov and Café Tacuba , and Colombian singer Juanes. In the late 1990s he made a switch to soundtracks, working on well-received albums for Amores Perros and The Motorcycle Diaries. His instrumental contributions to Ang Lee's tale of two cowboys in love are acoustic guitar-based and, let's face it, a bit on the sonic-wallpaper side.
The vocal tracks, on the other hand, are uniformly lovely, even if the selection of interpreters falls on the predictable side. Linda Ronstadt, Steve Earle, Willie Nelson, and Mary McBride on the soundtrack to a contemporary Western? What a shock! Still, they're all wonderful and Santaolalla wrote at least a couple of classic-sounding country ballads ("A Love That Will Never Grow Old," sung by Emmylou Harris, and "No One's Gonna Love You Like Me," sung by Mary McBride). And don't miss Teddy Thompson and Rufus Wainwright's sweet cover of Roger Miller's 1964 "King of the Road." --Elisabeth Vincentelli

A breakup storm could be brewing between Sofia Vergara and Nick Loeb.
The volatile pair has continued what has become commonplace in their lover's roller coaster, keeping us asking: Are they or aren't they together? A new report suggests that engaged couple has dropped all plans to secure a Beverly Hills mansion together.
According to the New York Post, their troubles started with a nightclub scuffle on New Year's Eve. Since then, all plans to nest up together have been thrown to the wayside.
"They were looking at mansions in Beverly Hills and Westwood, but Nick's realtors just called it off, and were saying they were breaking up," a source told the outlet.
Well that's putting it lightly…. Jeez. But apparently there's hope for the two.
The source added, "They are currently still together and are trying to work things out — but it is rocky."
As we previously reported Sofia and Nick got into it with security on New Year's Eve at a club in Miami Beach called Story. Nick got a little upset that Sofia was getting her photo taken with some other dude and they got into it. Another version of the story is that someone spilled a drink on Sofia and/or Nick and that caused the fight. The third version of the story is that Nick was upset that Sofia was flirting with her ex-boyfriend Chris Paciello.
The night before, the couple took their rage and aimed it at the hospitality of Miami's Katsuya restaurant after they screwed up their reservation. A source told Hollyscoop that Nick went off, calling every employee in sight a "f-cking idiot."
Not exactly the images that come to mind when you picture a "happy couple." I hope they try a little harder with this "trying to work things out" situation.

Salt Lake City is the cultural capital and headquarters for the Mormon community and a self-contained, rapidly growing, cosmopolitan but tradition-oriented city. Mormon settlers originally chose the location for its isolation and favorable agricultural resources. Today it serves as a major commercial and cultural center for the large intermountain U.S. west region, and is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative to crowded Pacific destinations.
A favorable business climate has led to the development of a wide range of industries, from traditional manufactured goods to a growing base of new-economy products. The growth has attracted migrants from other places west (especially California) seeking less crowding, lower living cost, and employment opportunities in a pleasant climate. Proximity to outstanding outdoor recreation, including skiing, rafting, and hiking in the Wasatch Mountains, is almost without comparison among large metropolitan areas. By contrast, the desert areas to the west offer little recreation or economic interest.
Downtown Salt Lake is beautiful, with boulevards originally designed by Mormons to be wide enough for wagons to make a U-turn. The city itself preserves a clean, dignified character enhanced by the capitol and government buildings and the various landmarks and sites of the Mormon Church. Extensive commercial and industrial areas spread south and west of I-15. Aside from Ogden to the north, most of the area's growth has spread south along a 40-mile stretch of relatively flat valley ending at Provo.
A string of attractive family-oriented suburbs starts about 5 miles south of downtown and east of I-15 against the mountains; Sandy and Draper are the largest. Because of limited geography and high growth, the city is experiencing some crowding, traffic congestion, smog, and a rise in the cost of living. But the economy is strong, there is plenty to do, the climate is generally pleasant, the population is educated, and good housing values can be found. The Mormon community maintains a strong influence on state government; conservative policies on alcohol and other matters are uncomfortable for some.
Salt Lake City is located in a dramatic valley surrounded by high mountains on three sides and the Great Salt Lake to the northwest. The city center is flat but the Wasatch Mountains to the east have peaks to 12,000 feet. The dry Oquirrh Mountains to the southwest of the city have peaks to above 10,000 feet. Heavily influenced by the mountains and the Great Salt Lake, the climate is semiarid continental with four distinct seasons. Summers have hot, dry weather, but high temperatures are generally tolerable because of low humidity and cool nights.
Winters are cold but usually not severe. Mountains to the north block some cold air and the salt lake moderates cold from the northwest. Average annual snowfall is under 60 inches at the airport but much higher in the mountains. Heavy fog can develop under temperature inversions in the winter and persist for several days. In summer, the mountain ranges help to develop thunderstorms, which drift over the valley, particularly the eastern portion. The lake and mountains together create summer breezes and more precipitation than would otherwise occur in this high-desert environment. Heavy precipitation comes from Pacific storms in spring. First freeze is mid-October, last is late April.
As of 2014, West Valley City's population is 129,123 people. Since 2000, it has had a population growth of 19.97 percent.
The median home cost in West Valley City is $162,700. Home appreciation the last year has been 10.00 percent.
Compared to the rest of the country, West Valley City's cost of living is 3.90% Lower than the U.S. average.
West Valley City public schools spend $7,691 per student. The average school expenditure in the U.S. is $12,435. There are about 22.7 students per teacher in West Valley City.
The unemployment rate in West Valley City is 3.50 percent(U.S. avg. is 6.30%). Recent job growth is Positive. West Valley City jobs have Increased by 3.18 percent.

LOUIS C.K. Show Rescheduled to March 2nd Due to Hurricane Sandy
In an open letter emailed to fans, comedian Louis C.K. confirmed that Sunday night's show at the City Center would be forced to be rescheduled to March 2, 2013 due to Hurricane Sandy.
"I thought about this very carefully and I really started to worry about making 4300 people come into midtown manhattan on Sunday night, which is just when the stormatron 5000 is supposed to crush our empire," C.K. wrote in the letter that was republished on his blog. " I know that a lot of people are excited to come and they are fine with taking the chance but I really don't want a pole to smash your face in because you saw some comedy."
C.K. added that the show had been rescheduled for March 2nd, and that all tickets to last night's show would be honored, "same seat, same everything. If you can't come on that night, we will either do another show soon after that, or find another show for you in the area in the future. Or you still have the option to get a full refund for your ticket. If you already asked for a refund, we can reinstate your ticket if you want to go to one of those shows."
The thoughtful entertainer went on to say, "Listen. I know that probably it's going to be a starry clear night and the trains are going to be just gliding up and down the traks and a baby zebra is going to whinny as he trots by the City Center on a night that is going to break records for being placid and perfect for a night of comedy. And I'm going to feel like an asshole. And I know that some people had their plans set and are going to be pissed off at me. I know. but I also know that some of you are struggling with whether to come in or miss the show and this is the closest I can get to a solution. You don't have to take a chance and you don't have to miss the show. Just come see me in a few months.
If it's any consolation, I'm eating a pretty staggering fee for cancelling the show. But I can take it. What I can't take is the thought that there's a CHANCE 4300 people will be in danger trying to get home from my stupid show."
Louis C.K., now in the middle of a national stand-up tour, is best known for his Emmy-winning comedy on FX, LOUIE, in which he writes, stars, and directs. C.K. is also set for an upcoming, untitled Woody Allen film. C.K. also served as an animated short writer on SNL from 1997-2007.

So instead of the fans, Summerville attempts to cater to her director, her cast and, primarily, herself.
Department stores opened to cater to an increasingly powerful middle class that no longer felt shy about displaying its wealth.
Gambling in Macau is often set in HKD instead of the local Pataca, and businesses that cater to visitors accept Hong Kong Dollars.
"provide food for," c.1600, from Middle English catour (n.) "buyer of provisions" (c.1400; late 13c. as a surname), a shortening of Anglo-French achatour "buyer" (Old North French acatour, Old French achatour, 13c., Modern French acheteur), from Old French achater "to buy," originally "to buy provisions," perhaps from Vulgar Latin *accaptare, from Latin ad- "to" + captare "to take, hold," frequentative of capere "to take" (see capable).
Or else from Vulgar Latin *accapitare "to add to one's capital," with second element from verbal stem of Latin caput (genitive capitis); see capital (adj.). Figuratively from 1650s. Related: Catered; catering.

got my leadtek 5800U today
This card is very fast and quiet so far I'm very happy with it. It was marked up $40 but I didn't mind shelling out the extra cash to have a top of the line video card. The 5900 is not far off but I'm tired of waiting and am satisfied NOW. This card has a quieter cooling solution and its silent in 2D apps. All current games run smooth and image quality is real crisp. I recommend it highly.
Glad to hear it. :D
Yes the 5800's are nice cards.
Much better than most them them credit for.
yes he did... the 5800U:D was the leadtek the card with 2 fans on the front??
I really dig that Leadtek cooler for their 5800U.... :angel:
Yes, that card rocks!
And yes, it's the card that looks like a metal box with 2 fans.
Awesome looks, IMHO. ;)
The 5800U might not be a Radeon killer, but it's a great card anyway, you just have to give it time to be used in real games, like most other top end cards, but for now, it runs everything just great and wait for Half Life 2 and Doom3, that will make the most of these cards.
Great time in 3D Gaming. :)
We have the hardware, now lets see the software...we're waiting anxiously. :D
- Does the Leadtek 5800U fill the PCI slot or is it truely a 1-slot solution?
- Does the LeadTek 5800U have VIVO?
- Where did you find a Leadtek 5800U?
yes it does fill the pci slot, I bought it from newegg.
oh yes it does have vivo.
Lack of VIVO is my sole regret about my PNY 5800 Ultra. Now if they'd make a Personal Cinema 5900 Ultra, I'd spend another $500 this year.
Love at 1st sight :)
God damn, that card looks sweeetttt with that heatsink. Think full plate armor dude!!! I've used Leadtek video cards since GF2 MX. Then upgraded to a GF4 Ti4800. Now I'm going for a GFFX 5800. Long live Leadtek!!!
That has always reminded me of James Bonds cigarette case. Good looking card.
The new Asus 5900 looks pretty good as well, I like their copper heatsinks, they look like they'd be good at doing their job.
Shame the pcb is not black.

SEC has work to do to make noise in March
Even though South Carolina appears nowhere close to making the NCAA tournament this March, coach Frank Martin is still carrying a torch for the SEC. In a college basketball world where his conference ranks behind several others in terms of nationally relevancy in the eyes of most pundits, Martin isn't buying it.

"Dude, it's funny as shit! You should listen to it! It's, like, a bunch of guys on the radio and they just bullshit all morning. And sometimes naked girls come in and they talk to the naked girls. Dude, I'm tellin' ya! It's awesome!"
By now you may have heard about Orioles DH Aubrey Huff's wacky guest appearance Thursday with some assclown named Bubba the Love Sponge on Sirius Satellite Radio.
Huff used that lofty forum to opine that Baltimore, the city that's home to the people who pay his salary, is "horseshit."
Nice, Aubrey. Thanks, big guy.
By way of an explanation, Huff told the Baltimore Sun's Roch Kubatko, "If anybody's heard [Bubba the Love Sponge], or Howard Stern's show, it's a shock jock show, so everything's flying. You've got four guys in there, including me, and we're talking about all sorts of stuff, including bars and restaurants, and how the two cities are different. I said Baltimore was horses – – for that. After games, places are closed down. There's no place to go."
Yeah, Aubrey, we understand. You were just riffing. It was intense. Your creativity and your razor wit just got the best of you.
"That show is an act," he went on. "I was being an actor. The guys on the show are acting. By no means is that my personality. If people think I offended them, I can apologize, but I didn't feel like I did anything wrong."
Listen, Aubrey, here's a tip: how about acting a little more like a lefthanded power hitter with men on base once in a while? Or acting like you give a shit when your team stinks? Or acting like fans are more than just an annoyance? How about acting like that for a while?
And anyway, don't hide behind the "acting." There are boneheads all over the country who listen to Bubba the Love Sponge and don't know anyone's "acting." They think the "Homeless Beauty Pageant" is the funniest thing they've ever heard. And they think there's a place where fat and ugly and angry guys live in strip joints and get lap dances all day and night. So, the "acting" excuse is pretty convenient when you go on the show and step in a pile of shit. It might be better to just tell Oriole fans you're sorry.
It's a great temptation for me to declare Aubrey Huff a first-class chump who hit his mighty 15 homers and drove in his stupendous 72 runs in his first year for the O's. But, chances are, despite his best efforts, club president Andy MacPhail won't be able to unload Huff and the rest of his three-year, $20 million deal. So Baltimore is likely stuck with Aubrey Huff. (And vice versa.) Might as well cut him some slack for now.
But Aubrey, buddy, call me. I happen to know the city of Baltimore doesn't close down late at night. It's not Tampa or Ybor City or St. Pete Beach. But it's not Mayberry, either. Give it a chance. And do us (and your career) a favor: stay away from Bubba.

|Turk, an eager representative of the Cash Money crew (B.G., Juvenile, etc.), shares an important characteristic with his labelmates; he's overwhelmingly enamored of America's legacy of violence and criminality. Even when he's making confident declarations of his sexual prowess, he sounds like he's delivering a call to arms. Unlike some rappers of the "thug" persuasion, Turk doesn't seem to be at all conflicted about the everyday presence of murder and mayhem in his world. On such tunes as "It's in Me," he takes a resigned, existential attitude toward his role as a street hood. It's this clear-eyed acceptance that lends believability to the image Turk presents throughout YOUNG & THUGGIN. Of course, the funky, minimalist beats underlying his raps don't hurt Turk's case either.

THOUGH the wall beside the parking garage elevator still wears a caricature of the gov in his muscle-bound movie star days, Schatzi, his Main Street Santa Monica restaurant, is no more. Yep, terminated. In its place is a new restaurant and lounge called Hidden from the owners of Via Veneto up the street.
Bamboo screens "hide" the restaurant at the back of a courtyard it shares with a cigar shop, but the sound of revelers on the patio leaks out into the quiet, almost deserted cityscape as you approach the beefy security at the door. Past the maître d's desk is a sprawling indoor-outdoor restaurant where the concept -- four cuisines, four kitchens -- reads like a high-end food court.
Hidden's design is a smart update that makes the most of the outdoor area. A trio of spacious cabanas takes up one corner; next comes a patio framed by bamboo and palms and outfitted with lipstick-red acrylic chairs and a platform furnished with sofas and coffee tables. Directly across the walkway is a sushi bar, farther on is the indoor-outdoor bar and at the very end, a dining room with a vaulted white brick ceiling, a massive crystal chandelier and banquettes backed by gold brocade panels. Got it?
Decisions, decisions
THE menu is just as confusing, offering four different cuisines from four different kitchens and four different chefs: Japanese (mostly sushi and sashimi), Spanish tapas, Vietnamese fusion cuisine and Neapolitan-style pizza. Think of it. You can have a bowl of pho while your buddy bites into a California roll and your girlfriend nibbles on peppers stuffed with tuna or mini Kobe beef tacos.
But deciding what to eat can be more chore than pleasure. "Where? Where?" my friends bleat as someone suggests a dish and the others flip back and forth through their menus looking for the description. It doesn't help that waiters not so subtly urge you to hurry it up. Instead of a pleasurable exercise, ordering becomes protracted and frustrating. The menu and concept are just too complicated.
What to do? The simplest strategy is to immediately order up a platter of charcuterie and a bottle of Chianti Classico or Nebbiolo d'Alba. That should keep everybody from starving while deciding on the rest of the menu. Because the wine list is one of those progressive ones, with wines grouped according to flavor characteristics, ordering wine too can take a while. (Still, if you have the patience, you can uncover a handful of relatively interesting bottles.) The wine may take a while to get to your table too. Sometimes the server can't find the bottle or shows up with the wrong one.
One night we don't get a table in the patio (again), but we do get one outside between the sushi bar and the main walkway, with heat lamps to warm us. So-and-so sat there last night, the hostess tells us, citing an actress I've never heard of. In that case, we're determined to love it too especially now that we have a front seat on the action. A woman sashays past us, her huge "It" bag held in front of her like a shield. A novice hipster nervously introduces himself to the manager, while a conga line of college-age kids shuffles toward the bar.
At one point the manager runs out and tells everyone to look -- look! Get ready for a pizza-tossing demonstration! The music starts, and a stocky guy heads down our way to demonstrate the flamboyant art of pizza tossing. It turns out he's a three-time winner of the acrobatic category of the World Pizza Championship (an annual competition in Salsomaggiore, Italy).
He puts on quite a show, flipping dough in the air, catching it with his upraised fists again and again until what began as a plate-sized disk grows large enough to double as a tablecloth. Next, he's tossing more dough, over his shoulders, down his spine, under his legs. We can only say wow when he gets three disks going at once. It's amusing for a while but goes on too long.
Meanwhile, we polish off a charcuterie plate supplied with supple jamón serrano, various salame, bresaola and speck. This selection is decent, but the meats are under-furnished with bread. Primed by the show, we're ready for pizza.
From more than two dozen mostly traditional options, we try a Margherita, always a good test, and one called scarola topped with braised escarole, olives and anchovies. The crust, a bit under-baked, has good flavor, but the products for the toppings are inferior: cheap salty anchovies, mediocre cheese, et cetera. It would take so little to dramatically improve the pizzas. It's simple: Just buy better ingredients. Who knows, though, if superior pizza tossing skills has anything to do, really, with making great pies?
The $250 pizza
ON another visit, I notice the category battuta (extra thin) at the very bottom of the pizza menu. It has just two choices, one of which is the "Hidden" topped with sautéed langoustines and curry and served with a flute (yes, just one) of Dom Pérignon for $150. Is this ridiculous or what? Not as much as the $250 version made with crème fraîche, lobster carpaccio and osetra caviar. Is this for real? I mean Nobu Matsuhisa and Lee Hefter at Spago have been known to garnish dishes with osetra, but that kind of money would get you an entire meal, not just an extra-thin pizza.
On the off chance it might turn out to be fabulous, I establish that the pizza in question has indeed been ordered before. Joking that the $250 model is gold-plated and comes with a set of car keys, our server tells us the same pizza costs $1,000 in New York. Interesting. Where? "I can't remember the name," he says. "It's a restaurant where some of our investors go," he answers. (He must be referring to the Luxury Pizza from Nino's Bellissima in New York, which is topped with lobster and several types of caviar.) I decide to go for it.
What arrives is so unassuming, it's a real shock. There it is, a thin-crusted pizza dough, very pale in color, topped with a smear of crème fraîche, some rounds of lobster carpaccio and some measly dabs of caviar. That couldn't possibly be an ounce of osetra, could it? He points to the jar of caviar sitting in a bowl of ice. Maybe there's more inside? I pick up the lid to discover that's all it is -- the lid. And the pie is uncut. Back to the kitchen it goes with the admonition not to lose a single fish egg.
We each take a slice. The crust is cracker-like, and though the lobster carpaccio is good, I'm not really getting a luxurious hit of caviar. And for $50 a slice for five people, I would expect something magnificent. This feels mingy in every way. And we feel like fools for ordering it.
Different destination
MOVING on to the Japanese section of the menu, we order fluke sashimi and wild salmon sashimi. The sliced salmon is suitably fatty, scribbled over with an orange sauce that tastes like a mixture of tahini and miso and is quite awful. The fluke is in rags. It looks like it's been sliced with a serrated knife -- five bites for $18 served with a thatch of scallions and a ponzu sauce for dipping. The spiciness in the "spicy" hamachi roll consists of a bowl of scorching red hot sauce, enough to service 500 sushi rolls. And it tastes suspiciously like Thai red chile sauce straight out of the bottle.
Hidden: three kitchens too many?
A $250 pizza, black 'muscles' in spicy red sauce and an outdoor sushi bar. Honey, we're not at Schatzi anymore.

1. MLB is not happy about his gambling. 2. His smokin'-hot wife is divorcing him after she caught him cheating...
Lo Duca's gambling reportedly concerns MLB
Mets catcher also is accused of cheating on his ex-Playboy model wife
MSNBC News Services
Updated: 12:23 a.m. ET Aug 8, 2006
Not only is New York Mets catcher Paul Lo Duca accused of cheating on his former Playboy model wife, he's also attracted the attention of team officials and Major League Baseball for massive gambling debts, the New York Daily News reported Tuesday.
Sonia Lo Duca, 34, in June filed a divorce petition, in which she accused Lo Duca with infidelity.
"I talk to my wife every day," Lo Duca told the Daily News at Saratoga Race Track. "We get along great."
The Daily News said Lo Duca, a four-time All-Star, has built up heavy debts because of his love of betting on horse racing.
Major League Baseball's morals clause does not prohibit players from gambling at casinos or race tracks, but league officials do become worried when a player runs up unmanageable debts.
Lo Duca told the Daily News that he only plays the ponies, not on major sports.
About his estranged wife, he said, "We decided to get a divorce six months ago and I wish it didn't happen, but it happens."
Sonia Lo Duca posed for Playboy's Sexy Girl Next Door spread in 2001. She married Paul in 2000, before his first full season in the majors, in which he hit .320 for the Dodgers.

4 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
8 weeks PO new pics
Show More Dr.kao is a very nice PS. He was confident with what he did and was very clean. My scars turned out great. I had a tummy tuck and a breast reduction by him. I'm happy with most of it. The only complaints I'd have is that I had asked that he make my aerolas much smaller. I don't find they are much smaller at all. I had told him about my disappointment and he did try to have the cost covered through the government but was denied. I feel like he should have fixed them from his own pocket. Especially because the last thing I said to him before the anastetic kicked in was to make sure he made my aerolas MUCH smaller and he acknowledged it. The other thing I don't like is my bellybutton. I've had a revision and it's still not great. I'm going to have it tattooed soon so hopefully it will hide the scars and fake look of it. I would choose him again if I had to do it all over again but I'd be very specific and I'd make sure we were on the same page.

Thermal barrier coating
Thermal barrier coatings (TBC) are highly advanced materials systems usually applied to metallic surfaces, such as on gas turbine or aero-engine parts, operating at elevated temperatures, as a form of exhaust heat management. These coatings serve to insulate components from large and prolonged heat loads by utilizing thermally insulating materials which can sustain an appreciable temperature difference between the load-bearing alloys and the coating surface.[1] In doing so, these coatings can allow for higher operating temperatures while limiting the thermal exposure of structural components, extending part life by reducing oxidation and thermal fatigue. In conjunction with active film cooling, TBCs permit working fluid temperatures higher than the melting point of the metal airfoil in some turbine applications.
|Ceramic topcoat
|Thermally grown oxide
|Metallic bond coat
|Superalloy substrate
Thermal barrier coatings typically consist of four layers: the metal substrate, metallic bond coat, thermally grown oxide, and ceramic topcoat. The ceramic topcoat is typically composed of yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) which is desirable for having very low conductivity while remaining stable at nominal operating temperatures typically seen in applications. Recent advancements in finding an alternative for YSZ ceramic topcoat identified many novel ceramics (rare earth zirconates) having superior performance at temperatures above 1200 °C, however with inferior fracture toughness compared to that of YSZ. This ceramic layer creates the largest thermal gradient of the TBC and keeps the lower layers at a lower temperature than the surface.
TBCs fail through various degradation modes that include mechanical rumpling of bond coat during thermal cyclic exposure, especially, coatings in aircraft engines; accelerated oxidation, hot corrosion, molten deposit degradation. There are issues with oxidation (areas of the TBC getting stripped off) of the TBC also, which reduces the life of the metal drastically, which leads to thermal fatigue.
The TBC can also be locally modified at the interface between the bondcoat and the thermally grown oxide so that it acts as a thermographic phosphor, which allows for remote temperature measurement.
Thermal barrier ceramic coatings are becoming more common in automotive applications. They are specifically designed to reduce heat loss from engine exhaust system components including exhaust manifolds, turbocharger casings, exhaust headers, downpipes and tailpipes. This process is also known as "exhaust heat management". When used under-bonnet, these have the positive effect of reducing engine bay temperatures, therefore reducing the intake air temperature.
Although most ceramic coatings are applied to metallic parts directly related to the engine exhaust system, technological advances now allow thermal barrier coatings to be applied via plasma spray onto composite materials. It is now commonplace to find ceramic-coated components in modern engines and on high-performance components in race series such as Formula 1. As well as providing thermal protection, these coatings are also used to prevent physical degradation of the composite material due to friction. This is possible because the ceramic material bonds with the composite (instead of merely sticking on the surface with paint), thereby forming a tough coating that doesn't chip or flake easily.
Although thermal barrier coatings have been applied to the insides of exhaust system components, problems have been encountered because of the difficulty in preparing the internal surface prior to coating.
Interest in increasing the efficiency of gas turbine engines for aviation applications has prompted research into higher combustion temperatures. Turbine efficiency is strongly correlated with combustion temperature through the completeness of the combustion reaction. Lower temperature combustion breaks fewer hydrocarbon bonds and ultimately produces less thrust requiring more fuel.[2] Thermal barrier coatings are commonly used to protect nickel-based superalloys from both melting and thermal cycling in aviation turbines. Combined with cool air flow, TBCs increase the allowable gas temperature above that of the superalloy melting point.
To avoid the difficulties associated with the melting point of superalloys, many researchers are investigating ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs) as high-temperature alternatives. Generally, these are made from fiber-reinforced SiC. Rotating parts are especially good candidates for the material change due to the enormous fatigue that they endure. Not only do CMCs have better thermal properties, but they are also lighter meaning that less fuel would be needed to produce the same thrust for the lighter aircraft.[3] The material change is, however, not without consequences. At high temperatures, these CMCs are reactive with water and form gaseous silicon hydroxide compounds that corrode the CMC.
SiOH2 + H2O = SiO(OH)2
SiOH2 + 2H2O = Si(OH)4
2SiOH2 + 3H2O = Si2O(OH)6[4]
The thermodynamic data for these reactions has been experimentally determined over many years to determine that Si(OH)4 is generally the dominant vapor species.[5] Even more advanced environmental barrier coatings are required to protect these CMCs from water vapor as well as other environmental degradants. For instance, as the gas temperatures increase towards 1400 K-1500 K, sand particles begin to melt and react with coatings. The melted sand is generally a mixture of calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide (commonly referred to as CMAS). Many research groups are investigating the harmful effects of CMAS on turbine coatings and how to prevent damage. CMAS is a large barrier to increasing the combustion temperature of gas turbine engines and will need to be solved before turbines see a large increase in efficiency from temperature increase.[6]
In industry, thermal barrier coatings are produced in a number of ways:
- Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition: EBPVD
- Air Plasma Spray: APS
- High Velocity Oxygen Fuel: HVOF
- Electrostatic Spray Assisted Vapour Deposition: ESAVD
- Direct Vapor Deposition
Additionally, the development of advanced coatings and processing methods is a field of active research. One such example is the Solution precursor plasma spray process which has been used to create TBCs with some of the lowest reported thermal conductivities while not sacrificing thermal cyclic durability.

New Look for Web Authentication
On Wednesday, April 22nd, the Dartmouth Web Authentication (WebAuth) system will have a new look. People use the WebAuth system to log into many web-based applications and systems with their NetID and password. This change improves the login process by presenting screens that are less cluttered, easier to use, and scalable for many different types of devices (computers, smartphones, etc). See http://www.dartmouth.edu/comp/help/webauth.html for more information.
For help you can email email@example.com or call us at 650-1600.
