Dear Cleveland, tonight is a prime chance for our beloved city to show the world (on national television) that we have enough other interesting things going on such that ONE SINGLE MAN who plays a GAME cannot break our collective psyche. The subject of this article is one man. Let us show how mature we are and act responsibly tonight. Otherwise, I generally agree with 'eyesoncleveland' above.
nuff said. 100% on target
Surely not the first to think of this. The constitution and laws need to be changed so that this bootstrapping citizenship (anyone born here is a citizen) ends. It served its purpose 150 years ago but it is outdated thinking now, just like no booze sales on Sunday and 65 mph speedlimits...............
Let Gilbert finance it. If tax dollars are to be used, please let us straighten (and rename) Deadman's curve before we straighten the river.
Make it wide, make it straight(er), pave it to last 20 years before the next paving is needed (i.e., make it materials intensive, rather than labor intensive (the way it is done now)). Make it 10 lanes wide in each direction, so there's never a traffic jam. Technology exists to make roads last 5x as long as they do. It costs 2x as much as typically used paving technology. Seems like a no brainer. Oh, and stop salting (i.e., corroding) the roads. Make it the first application of Ohio's new 70 mph speed limit....
Lebron? Who cares. He was here, brought in millions, and decided to go to a more fun place. And yet he's a villain. Only in Cleveland. Cue the crickets. I could not care less.
You're right. Where does it stop? It doesn't. Stop all entitlement programs that redistribute MY wealth to others who produce little or nothing in this society. I am a net payer into the government system. Others out there in my shoes will likely agree to some extent. The people forming the focus of this article are net USERS of government services.
If you can't take basic care that your child will have a chance in this world, DON'T HAVE CHILDREN.
You absolutely have it 100%. Best answer, case closed. Seriously. It's called "personal responsibility."
The city will find a way to police. restrict, tax, and integrate the Warehouse district out of existence. Its only a matter of time. It is the only desirable part of downtown in which to hang out and get an upscale dinner or drink (no I'm not discounting Tremont or Ohio City.) The purpose of the Warehouse is to have good eats when the sun shines and good drinks (and young hotties) when the sun's down. It is not a family place, not a dog park (are you kidding) and not an amusement park. It is night clubs.
Everybody just leave everybody alone, don't go looking for trouble and don't make trouble.
The photo with the line of cop cars is priceless. THAT is what will destroy the Warehouse district.
Scott's voice has changed in a way that is opposite to many hard rock singers. Take Daltrey and Plant. Back in "the day" when they were in their 20s and did drugs, they screamed out the high notes. With age, their voices became undesirably less elastic and lower pitched. For Weiland, his voice in his 20s was an authoritative deep angry bassy sound that rumbled. Now, after 15-20 years of drug use, he sounds almost squeaky or pop-music-y by contrast. I guess in either case, we all want what we used to have. I saw STP in columbus in Oct 2009 and was not even sure the guy with the squeaky voice was Weiland. I'll take Weiland's voice in Core (Plush, etc) over how he sounds any day.
Jesse go home.
Fans get a life.
Lebron, congrats, South Beach is more fun than Cleveland. If you're nostalgic, you can hang out at the Clevelander. If I were 25 and had unlimited money and potential I can't think of a better place to hang out than South Beach.
"You should not lose your job because you have a bad credit rating."
Really? Why not? If you can't handle your own money, why should you be trusted to handle the Federal Government's money? Credit checks are a routine part of background checks for job applicants in private companies, many of which workers have far less burdensome responsibilities than handling millions in government money.
Think about it. If you found out that your financial advisor was bankrupt or had her house in foreclosure, would you trust her to handle your money?
Let me see if I get this straight. If an office worker in a private company accidentally staples their finger, the presumption according to Worker's Comp is that they are under the influence of unprescribed drugs or alcohol, a presumption that can be rebutted by submitting to a drug/alcohol test. BUT, if a cop runs over someone requiring amputation of a limb, UNION RULES prohibit drug testing because there was no probable cause? Really? What kind of backwards bullshit is this?
Ohio is pathetic when it comes to TAXING drivers for exceeding our absurdly low speed limit. Someone driving from Buffalo to Chicago along I80 or 90 doesn't know or care if he's in Cleveland, Rocky River, Westlake or any of 100 other podunk towns that had the good fortune of having 100 yards of interstate (or state route, even, hello BOSTON HEIGHTS) through their territory. (If it were not for Route 8 through Boston Heights, that little craphole would not even exist. Look at the 25mph limit on Old 8 when you exit Rt 8 at 303 and head south). But each of those podunk towns (and the big ones like Cleveland) have their money grubbing hands in the cookie jar to pay their cops $100k. I've been to 40 states, and I've only ever heard of one other state (Arkansas) where local municipal cops can patrol INTERSTATE highways.
And now, let us add the judgement of an occifer, who is talking on his cell phone 80% of the time, in order to raise revenue.
85th percentile speed limits are the only way to go!
USSA indeed! Achtung!
Ohio is so backwards on all aspects of traffic control, and Cuyahoga county even more backwards than the rest of the state. I do not like large trucks on the road, but by and large they have safe drivers; keeping them to lower speeds just makes more obstacles on the road to pass. Ohio is one of only a few states to allow local cops to patrol interstate highways, showing how provincial we are. The driver from Buffalo to Chicago hardly knows or cares if the interstate he's on happens to be going through Euclid or Cleveland or Lakewood or Rocky River. But some small time cop from any of those towns can jack him up.

Voting Rights after Shelby County v. Holder
Professor Nathaniel Persily acted as a moderator in a discussion and webcast hosted by the Governance Studies Program at Brookings on the Supreme Court's decision in Shelby County v. Holder.
On June 25, the Supreme Court released its decision in Shelby County v. Holder, a constitutional challenge to preclearance provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Section 5 requires certain "covered" states and localities with a history of race-based discrimination in voting to seek federal government preclearance, either through the federal courts or the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division, to adopt changes in their voting laws; Section 4 adopted a formula for identifying those jurisdictions that are subject to preclearance under Section 5. In a 5-4 decision, the Court found Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act unconstitutional, but did not strike Section 5 from the law. As a result, Section 5 preclearance will not be in effect unless Congress passes new legislation that sets forth a new procedure to identify jurisdictions subject to Section 5 preclearance.
On July 1, the Governance Studies Program at Brookings hosted a discussion and webcast focused on the Court's ruling. The discussion featured scholars of the Voting Rights Act, the parties in the case, experts on Congress, representatives from the civil rights community, and members of the media for a series of discussions on the ruling, its impact on voting rights and election administration, and prospects for future legislative action.

Politico has a long story this morning based on anonymous sources which basically puts the blame for the Romney campaign's poor performance on top strategist Stuart Stevens. The whole article is worth a read. Here is just tiny part to get a sense of the tone:
As mishaps have piled up, Stevens has taken the brunt of the blame for an unwieldy campaign structure that, as the joke goes among frustrated Republicans, badly needs a consultant from Bain & Co. to straighten it out.
Stevens enjoys little of the internal affection that surrounded the brain trusts of the Bush and Obama campaigns. "I always have the impression Stuart must save his best stuff for meetings I'm not important enough to attend," said one Romney campaign insider. "The campaign is filled with people who spend a lot of their time either avoiding him or resisting him."
More interesting than any revelation in the story is the fact that the article exists at all. There are a large number of professions directly or indirectly involved in a campaign. If a campaign looks like it is heading for defeat there are many personal, professional and financial reasons why those people would want to avoid blame. Working for a campaign that loses is one thing; being seen as the reason a campaign lost is another. The latter could be devastating for a professional operative.
It would appear Stevens — fairly or unfairly — has emerged as the scapegoat of choice, but people only need to find a scapegoat if they think something bad is going to happen. We are still 50 days out from the election but the Romney campaign is starting to develop the first characteristics of a sinking ship.
Articles like this don't project confidence and can be very discouraging to donors.

I can't say this enough. Please encourage all to get this test. My husband was diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer Feb 2008. Now he is Stage 4 as it has spread to his liver and lung. He is fighting hard. Several surgeries, chemo, radiation therapy all are more expensive than the test. Monday he will be having his 3rd Liver Resection at Providence. His story is like many others. No one fights alone, but everyone needs to try to prevent this with a colon screening which is his request. You can follow his story on http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/RodgerB .

We should persuade the New York Times to translate and syndicate George Szpiro's columns from the Swiss newspaper Neue Zürcher Zeitung (NZZ) and its Sunday edition NZZ am Sonntag. That way we would not have to wait years to read his musings. He writes about mathematics for the general reader, and he has a knack for that, for giving readers "…an understanding not only of the importance, but also of the beauty and the elegance of the subject." In The Secret Life of Numbers, the subjects include solved and unsolved problems, mathematical personalities, historical tidbits, and a potpourri of applications.
Szpiro's background is worth a brief mention. His primary occupation is journalism, though he has done graduate work in mathematics, has an MBA from Stanford and a PhD in finance and mathematical economics from
Since most of the pieces in Szpiro's book are only three or four pages long, he faces the challenge of communicating something meaningful about complex concepts to a general reader in an entertaining way, and doing so in at most a few thousand words. Generally he does so very well. For example, he discusses the Poincaré conjecture and Perelman's work in three and a half pages and manages to tell the history, describe the problem in a comprehensible fashion and give a general idea of the proposed solution.
There were several pieces that I particularly enjoyed. There is a sly portrait called "God's Gift to Science" about Stephen Wolfram and A New Kind of Science. (The title of the piece speaks for itself.) There are three articles about Thomas Hales' work on the Kepler conjecture and honeycomb problem. A selection on the computer scientist Danny Hillis talks about his career as an "Imagineer" for Disney, his work on a 10,000 year clock, and his new company called Applied Minds. I also enjoyed a piece on a Swedish student's purported solution of Hilbert's 16th problem.
Generally, the applied pieces in the book's last section don't work quite as well as the other articles. There is, however, a good account of Lawrence Sirovich's information-theoretic analysis of Supreme Court verdicts.
This is an excellent book to dip into, to give to friends or relatives who wonder what you do, or to recommend to students.
Bill Satzer (email@example.com) is a senior intellectual property scientist at 3M Company, having previously been a lab manager at 3M for composites and electromagnetic materials.

How to Eat Potato Chips without overdoing it
I shared a small bag of chips with my 7-year old. When she took a chip to eat, THEN I had one. In this way, I didn't have more than half of the bag when I would otherwise I had 3/4 of the bag. And since chips are an infrequent thing, she can afford the small indulgence on her part.

Make Getting Your Vitamins & Minerals a Game!
We can track any nutrients you want. Calcium, Potassium, Vitamin A, etc. The food tracker allows us to add any of this. Now, rather than going for the multi-vitamin first, I'm trying to see if I can eat foods that'll get me my Recommended Daily Allowance of nutrients I want to track. As a result, I'm eating more whole foods and I'm too full to have much space for "junk" food or foods without nutrients.

Robin Thicke gropes fan, crosses the blurred line
Robin Thicke is happily married to Paula Patton. But his vision must have been blurry when he took a photo with a fan at New York City night club.
The New York Daily News released an image of Thicke getting a little too personal with a fan.
On the heels of the controversy surrounding the raunchy performance of his hit "Blurred Lines" with Miley Cyrus at the MTV VMAs, a picture has surfaced on social media of what appears to be the singer grabbing the behind of a woman who is not his wife, Paula Patton.

Miranda Lambert exhibit to open at Country Music Hall of Fame 0

Beatles Story, Liverpool, England: Four young English men forever changed the face of music when they took their rock sounds from Liverpool to the world. The Beatles Story museum in Liverpool pays homage to the Beatles' roots, taking visitors on a journey via memorabilia and audio guides from Liverpool to Abbey Road to the Yellow Submarine.

Country superstar Miranda Lambert is lending a slew of red carpet gowns, stage costumes and awards to the Country Music Hall of Fame for a special exhibition following a groundbreaking 2013.
The House That Built Me hitmaker enjoyed a stellar 12 months, and now she's bringing some of her most notable items to the country music mecca in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Miranda Lambert: Backstage Access exhibit will explore a year in the life of the singer, and will allow fans to get up close to her trophies, the costumes she wore during shows, and a host of other memorabilia.

The Mynabirds, St. Vincent, Fiona Apple And More
Originally published on Thu October 23, 2014 3:02 pm
Okay, who let Bob Boilen have a book of "rock 'n' roll" baby names? The damage is done, and he's discovered that people named "Bob" are "beloved weirdos." This revelation led Bob and Robin on a trip to find a few of their favorite "beloved weirdos" who are making great music today. St. Vincent's Annie Clark is one (emphasis on the "beloved" and creative side), with her continuous quest to craft denser, darker rock songs. Clark's new song, "GROT" — the B-side to her Record Store Day single — mixes wordless, haunting vocals with aggressive blasts of guitars and drums to create a beautiful clash of harmony and noise.
Also on this week's show: Fiona Apple just released her first new song in seven years and we've got it. "Every Single Night" is a highly detailed, orchestral imagining of her own creative process; The Mynabirds' members get political with the fierce, stomping cut "Generals"; a sneak preview of the brooding, epic new full-length from Exitmusic; and Fenster crafts dreamy bedroom pop with "White to Red."

""Fannie Mae"":http://www.fanniemae.com has issued a ""notice to servicers"":https://www.efanniemae.com/sf/guides/ssg/annltrs/pdf/2011/svc1106.pdf detailing changes to how they should apply ""imminent default"" evaluations and determine the market value of properties for pre-foreclosure sales.[IMAGE]
The GSE is requiring servicers to apply the evaluation methods now used only for the Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP) in determining whether a borrower faces imminent default to all non-HAMP modifications secured by owner-occupied properties.
Servicers have been required to seek Fannie Mae's prior written approval for a mortgage modification when default is reasonably foreseeable, or imminent. But effective immediately, the GSE is allowing servicers to follow the standard imminent default evaluation used in HAMP for borrowers that do not qualify for the federal program and who are either current or in default but less than 60 days delinquent.[COLUMN_BREAK]
This evaluation hierarchy involves first assessing the borrower's cash reserves, which can be no more than $25,000; submitting the mortgage loan data to Freddie Mac's Imminent Default Indicator (IDI) which can be accessed through Fannie Mae's HomeSaver Solutions Network (HSSN); and confirming that the borrower is experiencing an "acceptable†hardship, such as death of a co-borrower, long-term illness or disability, or divorce.
Additional details on the "imminent default†update are provided on ""Fannie Mae's business site"":https://www.efanniemae.com/sf/guides/ssg/annltrs/pdf/2011/svc1106.pdf.
In addition, Fannie Mae is requiring servicers to use certain providers approved by the GSE to obtain broker price opinions (BPOs) or appraisals to complete the evaluation of short sales and deeds-in-lieu of foreclosure.
The Fannie Mae Network Provider list includes specific contacts from nine companies: Clear Capital, Integrated Asset Serves, ISGN, PCV Murcor, EMortgage Logic, LPS Applied Analytics, Old Republic Default Management Services, CoreLogic, and Mark to Market.
This full list is also available on ""Fannie Mae's business site"":https://www.efanniemae.com/sf/servicing/hafa/pdf/preforeclosurevalprovider.pdf. The GSE says the new requirement regarding short sale and deed-in-lieu valuation providers is effective "as soon as possible, but no later than July 15, 2011.â€Â
Fannie Mae noted that in order to limit risks arising from the concentration of orders, the GSE requires servicers to request no more than 75 percent of their orders from a single provider.

Behind the Kitchen Door
Diane Lefer: A comment last week on an LA Times blog argued that "working in a restaurant is not supposed to provide a 'living wage'. It's a job that teenagers and students use to get started in life." Not so according to ROC-LA co-coordinator Cathy Dang who reported that nationwide, people tend to stay in the industry for a lifetime.
Why We Should Trade Broccoli and Asparagus for Hot Dogs and Apple Pie
Robert Reich: The requirement that everyone purchase health insurance, or pay a fine doesn't appeal to many Americans. They don't like the government telling them they have to buy something. But the healthcare system can't work without this mandate. Only if everyone buys insurance can insurers afford to cover people with preexisting conditions, or pay the costs of catastrophic diseases.

Does any one know a cute girl with some pom-poms ?
planetGenesis 1.6 saw the light of day today.
New planetGenesis 1.6 features...
New Combiners
- SetX, SetY and SetZ.
These take the value generated by the left hand side noise and replace
either the X, Y or Z co-ordinate feed to the right hand side noise.
New output
- Yayray xml output.
New improvements
- Worley based noises are 10 - 20% quicker.
- Perlin noise has had a 1% improvement.
Bug fixes
- Random seed now random :-)
postGenesis is coming along too, I've I've totally changed the API to get/set noise parameters so it's totally automatic, all I have to do is set them up correctly. Things left to do libPostGenesis include adding...
a way of adding a 'choice' parameter type for example down down controls.
A way to remove noise engines from the current noise graph including freeing memory
Saving / loading
Running the noise graph up to a point, then keeping it there so you can play with the nodes after that point without rerunning the whole thing.
Then I need to finish the Cocoa GUI and decide how to deal with the other platforms.

Q I know you are small-animal practitioners, but I thought you might be able to help me. We purchased a horse some years back for the children to ride. She is a sweet horse, but has had problems with her teeth and her feet and now really cannot be ridden. We would love to find her a nice home to retire to, maybe a kids' camp or something. What do you suggest?
A: This touches on a subject that is very near to my (Dr. Henri Bianucci's) heart, as this situation reflects one that my family is currently in. We are the caretakers of our children's two aged ponies, Ginny and Chief, who have outlived their rideable years. What do we do when the benefits we derive from our animals run out? When, by no fault of their own, they no longer fit into our lives?
There are basically three categories of owned animals: pets, producers (of food or fur) and service/performance animals.
As sad, or offensive, as it may sound, the second category is probably the most honest relationship of the three. Yes, there may be some deceptive marketing that depicts happy chickens laying eggs or dairy cows on a small family dairy farm, but the reality is more often a large, mechanized production facility. However, there are no illusions about the role of the participants. The beef cows aren't regarded as parts of the family.
From a distance, the service/performance and pet animals differ in their relationships with us. Pets are kept solely for our pleasure, while service animals have a job to do. Where these relationships do not differ is that they are both founded upon the animal fulfilling a need of the human. So as needs or the animal's ability to fulfill them change, the relationship is redefined.
There are some shocking examples of this. In the Vietnam War, service dogs that served as sentries and on patrol were credited with saving countless lives. After the war, in a U.S. military policy of forced abandonment, more than 1,000 German Shepherd war veterans were left behind.
In 1986, Ferdinand was all the rage in the horseracing world. He won the Catalina and Malibu Stakes. He then won the Kentucky Derby. In 1987, he was named Horse of the Year. A stallion, he went to stud in 1989. It is reported that in 2002 he was sent to Japan and slaughtered.
Fortunately, as a society we are waking up. The dog handlers from Vietnam were so disturbed by the abandonment of their dogs that they worked to prevent this from happening again. Now, the military leaves no dogs behind.
In 2006, the New York Owners and Breeders Association established a voluntary fee called the "Ferdinand Fee." It helps fund racehorse retirement and rescue groups. When horses are sent to breeding facilities, many owners have buyback clauses to prevent them from winding up in slaughterhouses. Such an arrangement is in place for 1997 Kentucky Derby winner Silver Charm, who is in Japan.
These changes reflect an evolution in how we, as a society, regard our duties as animal owners. It acknowledges that our responsibility for them goes beyond the point when they are no longer useful or convenient to us.
As for your horse, it is very difficult to place one and be assured of its care and welfare in the years ahead. So do your homework and follow up regularly on the horse's condition, and agree that you will help relocate the horse if things don't work out.
I'm not saying one should keep an animal at all costs. If someone finds themselves physically, temporally, financially, emotionally or otherwise unable to provide good care, they should not have an animal.
But it is absolutely incumbent upon them to find a better alternative.

South Africa: Baghdatis Says He is in SA Open to Win It
Mark Smit
29 January 2009
Johannesburg A MUCH more confident Marcos Baghdatis arrived at Montecasino last night and declared: "I am here to win."
The Cypriot is one of the top draw cards in the ATP South African Open tennis championship starting on the casino courts on Monday.
He flew into a rain-drenched Johannesburg from a sweltering Australian Open in Melbourne, having reached the fourth round. There, he came up against reigning Open champion Novak Djokovic of Serbia and went down in four sets -- but not without the characteristic fight to the end.
"I was very pleased with my results in Melbourne," said Baghdatis. "Not only Djokovic, but my first three matches too. I was able to fight hard and the best thing was that I did it without any pain."
Last year was sheer torture for Baghdatis, with an ankle injury forcing him out for two months, then a wrist injury causing him to miss the French Open and the Beijing Olympics. "That was the worst, because I really wanted to win an Olympic medal for my country," he said.
Then, towards the end of the year, a disc in his back shifted during a tournament in Metz, forcing him to take more time off. So he went to Melbourne feeling less than confident, and it showed on occasion in his serve, which never reached the high percentages that it needed to in that company.
"I was terrible in the first set against Djokovic, but I am okay with my serve. Apart from that, it was always there when I needed it in the other matches.
"There is nothing wrong with the technique, it's all just a matter of confidence. I am more confident in my body now and my serve will improve," he said.
"It is great to be able to come here feeling fit and strong. I am tired right now after a very long flight but I will be on the court tomorrow to test the altitude."
While Spaniard David Ferrer set a cat among the pigeons on Sunday by suggesting Spanish left-hander Ferdinand Velasco would win the Australian Open, Baghdatis said he could not see Velasco getting past compatriot Rafael Nadal, his semifinal opponent.
"Conditions in the Melbourne heat are very tough -- that is why you get upsets. But I cannot see anything other than a (Roger) Federer-Nadal final. Velasco is good but I don't think he has the weapons to beat Nadal."
Baghdatis was almost affronted when a journalist asked him how far he expected to go in the Open. Would he be happy to reach the quarterfinals?
"I am here to win," he said. "I know each match will be tough and I will just have to keep on fighting. But I fought well in Melbourne. If I carry on fighting here I can do well."
The ATP released the final entry for the event yesterday with German Simon Gruel, ranked 126, replacing the injured Gael Monfils. Italian Favio Cipola (127) and Stephane Bohli of Switzerland (128) have taken the last two spots to make up the 25 direct acceptances. Three wild cards and four qualifiers complete the draw.

Nuclear power gets bad rap from Japan
Notwithstanding events in Japan, nuclear power is the fuel of the future, says Steve Chapman in Reason. Still, a backlash over the disaster in Japan may prove to be a huge setback for what Chapman argues is an excellent source of energy. [Read More]
Nuclear energy too unmanageable
The inherent problems with nuclear power disqualify it as a serious source of energy, says Robert Scheer in Truthdig. "After the Japanese experience, such cavalier dismissal of the intrinsic problems of nuclear power is no longer plausible," Sheer says. [Read More]
It's no time to have a nuclear meltdown!
When there's a disaster in the oil business, writes William Saletan in Slate, there's a cleanup, lessons are learned and we move on. The same should be true for nuclear power; there's no reason to abandon nuclear energy, even in light of events in Japan, he says. [Read More]
A strategy, but for what?
Today's editorial: There's talk, yet again, of raiding the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve. Higher gas and heating fuel prices don't constitute a crisis. There's a good reason, we've long thought, why the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is called just that. The very government that created it in the wake of a genuine crisis — the 1973-74 Arab […] [Read More]
Oil prices won't tank the recovery
The conventional wisdom is that as oil prices rise, "wallets snap shut and no more meals at Cheesecake Factory," says Zachary Karabell in The Daily Beast. But he's not having any of it. Even if many struggle with higher prices, the economy will not, he says. [Read More]
Information would guide energy use
You're already familiar with the labels on food products that give information on calories, cholesterol and nutrients. In The New York Times, Amanda Little proposes a similar system for energy usage so Americans can make wise energy choices. [Read More]
No nuclear option
From today's editorials: We can't talk about building more nuclear plants until we figure out what to do with radioactive waste. _____________________ The United States has been using nuclear power for more than half a century, and it still hasn't decided what to do with waste that will be lethal for thousands of years, even […] [Read More]
Coal, nuke power far from 'clean'
President Obama may see a place for nuclear power and "clean coal" in America's future, but Physicians for Social Responsibility argues that calling them clean energy is wrong. Three experts including a Buffalo doctor say nuclear power is full of problems and "clean coal" is untested. [Read More]

I Heart KEXP & 826 Seattle

The huge number of people who came out for this meeting clearly shows that if the Barry's decide to persue this project they will be back to oppose it.
Wonderful ideas.
I would hope everyone gets behind them and they are quickly implemented.
I would also like to see (pun intended) the poor lighting on Washington Street be addressed. The decorative lights installed years ago just don't cast enough light.
Wonderful night for Hoboken.
Thank you to everyone who made it happen.
A big thank you to Bridget Nunan and the ladies.
The makeover of the teen room at the Boys and Girls Club looks great.
Kudos to everyone who made it happen.
Hoboken's year of parks keeps moving forward.
Thank you to everyone who helped raise money for this good cause.
How wonderful that the Hoboken Library is becoming more of an asset to Hoboken.

This will be an investment in the future quality of life for the people of Hoboken.

It doesn't look like that will happen.

Trinity was born and raised in Tyler, Texas. The son of a professional bull rider, Trinity developed a love for country music at a young age. He was asked to sing the National Anthem when he was 10 years old at a local rodeo which set him on a path to become a country singer. He started singing with local bands at rodeos, fairs and dance halls into his teens. When he was 14, a vacation to London introduced him to musical theatre when he saw Les Misérables at the Palace Theatre. While his love for country music remained strong, a deep passion for theatre began to develop. He appeared in numerous productions throughout high school at local theatres in East Texas.
After graduating high school, he was cast as a featured singer/skater in the National Tour of A Holiday Spectacular on Ice. His performing career continued with tours of Damn Yankees and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. While on tour, Trinity became interested in the management and producing aspects of theatre. As a Production Supervisor and Stage Manager his credits include Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, Mary Poppins, Rent, Young Frankenstein, Oklahoma!, The Wedding Singer and The Producers.

SEASOFT's SUNRAY Booties are considered by the US Military, Professional and Recreational Divers to be the Very-Best. The SEASOFT Sunrays are a Warm Water Version of the Stealth Boots and will deliver the same performance but in a 3 mm Version with a Mid-Top Fit! And it has the same great arch support. Cramps are an issue for most divers. Soft-Soled Dive Booties cause the Foot to Flex-Continuously inside the Foot Pocket of their Fins Causing Cramps. Most divers think this is an inevitable price to pay to dive or snorkel, it's not! SEASOFT uses a Hard Sole when manufacturing their Boots. This eliminates the Up-and-Down Motion of the Foot inside the Foot Pocket of your Fins that causes Cramping.
All SEASOFT Boots have a Hard Sole that inside the Fin Foot Pocket gives you Complete-Control of your Fins. Be more Comfortable-and-Faster because you use your thighs, calves and buttocks, the big muscle groups, to provide your power to move you through the water. By bypassing these small muscles, SEASOFT Booties use the large muscle groups to powerfully move you through the water. SEASOFT Booties have a money back guarantee - if you get cramps, we will send you another pair or you can return them. We have never had a diver return a pair! Another good reason to buy a SEASOFT bootie: Divers can easily carry over a hundred pounds of gear; should you be wearing bedroom slippers OR athletic footwear? The obvious answer, of course, is athletic footwear because an Elevated Heel and an Arch Support underneath the Sole of your Boot create Stability and Comfort. The Elevated Heel gives you the ability to Safely-Carry your Gear on Sand, Rocks and Lava, or on Wet Docks and Pitching Boat Decks. The Arch Support provides Stability and Supports the Foot and Ankle.
If you agree that Athletic Footwear is Important, you should be Wearing SEASOFT Diving Booties. SEASOFT's competitors LOOK Athletic from the outside but are not athletic where it counts, on the inside. If the heel is not raised, it's just a bedroom slipper! SEASOFT Diving Booties Utilize High-Quality Nylon ll Neoprene, a Fin Guard on the Heel of the Boot keeps your Fin Strap properly in place throughout the dive and the Heavy Duty Zipper is equipped with a Zip-Keeper. All Seams are Glued-with-Dry-Suit-Cement and are than Stitched with Heavy-Duty Thread for Strength and Durability. The Sunray Boots utilize a Glide-Skin Lining for Easy On/Off. So join the US Military, Police, Sheriff and Fire Departments and tens of thousands of other divers in discovering just how Warm, Comfortable, Safe and Effective you can be in SEASOFT Booties. Boots are Black in color and are covered by a 24 month limited warranty.
The Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper is commonly used for Cold Water, Professional, Recreation, Shore diving, Warm Water and more. The Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper is most used by customers who consider themselves to be a Advanced, Advanced Diver, Casual/ Recreational among others. The Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper is popular because customers like the following qualities of the Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper: Durable, Good Fit, Prevents Water Movement, Warm.

Bought these boots for my wife and I for our trip to Bonaire with its rugged shore entries. Boots worked great, protected our feet from the sharp rocks along the shoreline, the soles are nice and thick for great protection. The inner boot is very comfortable as well, we snorkeled with them for hours at a time with no discomfort. They were even durable enough to to withstand the cave tour we went on, they were our only footwear we had at the time and we were even able to to exit the cave climbing a rope with these boots as our only gripping surface on the rock face and they withstood that test as well. Very pleased with the quality of this boot.

Bought these boots to replace thin soled boots that I could feel every rock with during shore entry.
These solved thin sole problem with nice thick treaded sole but comes with a whole slew of problems itself.
1) Sole inside the boot is smooth so when you walk after a dive, (meaning water inside) your foot has a tendency to slide and jam your toes to the front of the boot.
There is no water drain in the boot.
2) The height inside the boot is very high so gives you no top of the foot support adding to the toe jam in the front problem.
You can alleviate this issue somewhat by wear a sock.
The biggest problem with this boot is:
Because of the tick rubber sole and padding, it's overly buoyant.
For it to be a great boot deserving a 5 star it should be close to neutral buoyant as possible.
Due to this positive buoyancy, if you dive with lighter fins it will push your head down in a very awkward and uncomfortable position.
If you constantly swim and correct your position, you might not notice but for any advanced diving where being perfectly horizontal with need for absolute buoyancy control, with minimal effort, these are the wrong boots to get (unless your fins are heavy like jet fins. Then these boot can help alleviate some of the negative buoyancy.)
These are not great boots. It's just a boot with a tick sole.

Comments about Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper:
The boot does not fit Apllo Bio size medium. They are too wide. Otherwise, I would like the boots. I should have checked the fit with my fins before I went on a trip.
Best Uses
Comments about Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper:
These are the best, most comfortable boots my wife and I have found. The first pair we owned lasted great. The second pair (both hers and mine) which we are now replacing had the soles seperated from the neopreme upper. Tried re-gluing with limited success. Did not have this problem with the first pair. Hope they have the problem fixed. That said, the boots with the problem had probably 200 dives on wifes pair and over 300 on my pair. So still satisfied, I just think the bonding was not as good as on the original pair. We like them well enough and have not found anything better that we are both ordering another pair.
One reviewer mentioned foot slipage in the boot because of the slick inside. This is a problem walking down inclines but is solvable. We have worn lycra socks for years and believe it or not the socks eliminate that problem and also prevent blisters from diving 6-7 days a week for 3 months straight (mostly Bonaire). Lycra socks are foot savers if you dive a lot. A person would think the socks would make the foot slippage in the boot worse, but they completely eliminate it.
The ONLY negative we have with the boots is the sole coming loose from the upper (after a lot of diving). Otherwise they would have been a 5 star.

I love this for the rocky shore dives here where I am. The low cut boot also prevents having an odd tan line.

Comments about Seasoft Sunray 3 mm Low Cut Boots with Zipper:
The boot has thick and stiff soles - great for shore diving. I have some concerns about quality as the rubber on the right boot is already coming off. This is after 30 dives in Bonaire.

Ten-man Dundee became the latest Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier League scalp to be claimed in the Scottish Communities League Cup after losing 2-1 against Queen's Park at Hampden.
Sean Burns grabbed the winner for the Irn-Bru Third Division side after a Jamie Longworth penalty had cancelled out Steven Milne's early opener, as Neil McGregor saw red for the visitors.
Kilmarnock, Hibernian and Ross County were all dumped by lower league opposition on Tuesday night and their fate was shared by Dundee, who were without four of their new signings for the second-round tie.
Fellow SPL side St Mirren cruised through to the third round with a comfortable 5-1 win over Ayr United.
Lewis Guy raced on to Paul McGowan's slide-rule pass to open the scoring after 16 minutes and Steven Thompson doubled the hosts' lead on the half-hour mark.
A wonderful individual effort from McGowan stretched the Paisley side's advantage to three before Kenny McLean added a fourth from the penalty spot.
The visitors pulled one back through Michael Moffat six minutes before the break but the Clydesdale Bank Premier League side added a fifth through Gary Teale in the second half.
An Andrew Shinnie double ensured Inverness progressed with a 2-0 victory over Second Division Arbroath.
Caley Thistle had exited this competition at the same stage last year with a 1-0 defeat to Ayr - but Shinnie eased the nerves with a seventh-minute goal, before putting the result out of Arbroath's reach 19 minutes from time.

Flushing, NY (Sports Network) - Johan Santana tossed his ninth career shutout and first in close to two years as the New York Mets blanked the San Diego Padres, 9-0, in the third test of a four-game set at Citi Field.
Santana (2-2) last tossed a shutout on August 12, 2010 against the Colorado Rockies before undergoing left shoulder surgery in September of that year, which forced the lefty to miss the entire 2011 campaign.
The two-time Cy Young award winner allowed just four hits on Saturday and didn't issue a walk while striking out seven to extend his personal unbeaten streak to seven games.
"It's a great feeling for me just to put my uniform (on)," remarked Santana. "Being able to help and being able to go out there every five games is definitely something that I was waiting for and I'm very happy for and I'm just going to continue doing."
Scott Hairston belted a three-run blast and Mike Nickeas added a grand slam in the eighth for the Mets, who have won four of their last five.
Clayton Richard (2-6) was charged for four runs on five hits and three walks over six innings of work. Yonder Alonso extended his hit-streak to nine games with a single in the first, but the Padres fell for the fifth time in their last six tries.
New York tallied four runs in the bottom of the first inning as Andres Torres singled and David Wright followed two batters later with a four-pitch walk.
Both runners then advanced on a balk from Richard before Hairston plated everyone with a three-run blast to left field.
Vinny Rottino extended the margin to four two batters later with a solo shot over the wall in left-center field for his first major league home run.
"It's tough when you put your team in the hole early on," said Richard. "Four runs is kind of a big hole and it kind of changes the momentum of things right off the get-go."
Four runs provided plenty of run support for Santana, who retired 16 straight and 23 of the final 24 batters he faced after giving up a leadoff single to Chase Headley in the second.
The Mets blew the game open in the eighth as Justin Turner singled to start the frame before scoring on a double from pinch-hitter Ike Davis.
After Lucas Duda flied out, Rottino singled and Ronny Cedeno walked to load the bases for Nickeas, who launched his first major league grand slam over the left-field wall to give New York a 9-0 lead.
Padres outfielder Cameron Maybin left the game in the top of the sixth inning with a sprained right wrist...The Mets went 4-for-7 with runners in scoring position and left three on base...Santana improved to 3-3 in eight all-time starts against the Padres.

Photo by At the Tour of Romandie, Talansky used his time-trial prowess to ride his way onto the podium. He hopes to do the same in the Tour of California, which runs May 13-20. (Garmin-Barracuda)
"Obviously you have Chris Horner—he was incredible last year," Talansky said. "But to do that two years in a row is hard. You can do the exact same training and the exact same race program two years in a row, but that doesn't mean you're going to have the exact same form, so we have to hope a little bit that he doesn't on Mount Baldy."
"Tejay van Garderen of BMC is clearly going to try to win the race," Talanksy added. "And somebody not everybody is talking about is Vincenzo Nibali. He had a great spring campaign, he won Tirreno, he was in the Ardennes racing up at the front."
Wherever Talansky and Garmin finish in California, it's clear that they're on a roll and things look good for the squad heading into the major summer races. And given Talansky's dedication to the sport coupled with Garmin's spirit and focus on nurturing riders long term, expect to see a lot more of both in the years to come.
