Cozy UES restaurant atmosphere reminiscent of Japan. Freshest seafood quality, friendly-efficient service. Amazing sushi! You gotta try the Omakase! A bit pricey, but truly an experience like having a playground of taste and texture in your mouth. Worth the money. We are coming back!

Simply the best Sushi anywhere. Gari is an artist!

I give Sushi of Gari a zero for food, let me explain...Last Friday my wife had our first baby at Weill Cornell Hospital just a few blocks away from Sushi of Gari. She hadn't had sushi for 9 months so asked me to get delivery of the best sushi in the neighborhood to the hospital the following night, and I wanted to make that special of course. I called up Sushi of Gari earlier in the day to ask if they would deliver to the hospital, and I was told by the manager no problem, they do that all the time. So I called back from the hospital room around seven that night and the woman on the phone told me that they don't deliver that far away. When I said that I had earlier checked that they did, she admitted that yes, thats in the area, but the restaurant was so busy that she preferred not to do any delivery at that point in time to customers she didn't know personally. Finally, she actually said that she didn't care who i told - Sushi of Gari didn't need new customers. I am still appalled by their arrogance and had to get this off my chest.

This place came recommended by a friend who is a total foodie. He told me to come in, ask to be seated at the bar, and just ask for the special chef's tasting menu. I only told the server what I was allergic to and she took care of the rest. All of the pieces I was served were one of a kind with amazing garnishes. They will serve you until you tell them to stop. Amazing.

On the suggestion of a friend, my gf and I went to Sushi of Gari. In a nutshell, it replaced my previous favorite sushi place as number one on my list. Our waitress was great, the sushi was great, I thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience.

Though very expensive, this was by far the best sushi I've ever had. We got the omakase (3 plates of 4 pieces for each of us- each topped with something really unique). The salmon with roasted tomato, the baby yellowtail with lettuce topped with some kind of fried chip and the yellowtail "ceviche-style"were exceptional. At $85 per person, you'd expect to be full by the end of the meal... not the case. If you are the slightest bit hungry, youre going to need more food then the Omakase. We ordered an additional spicy tuna roll and 2 additional tomato/salmon and yellowtail/lettuce/chip pieces and the waitress did not charge us. Service was fair- not exceptional but by no means poor and the decor is unassuming. The place looks like countless other brightly lit average NYC sushi restaurants. But again, this place has the best sushi I've ever had.

New West Side School (on West Market Street opposite Kiwanis Park) as it appeared in 1932. It was later renamed Henry Johnson School. (Old) West Side School was located at the corner of West Main Street and West Watauga.
I attended Henry Johnson School on West Market Street during my second through sixth grades. I entered Miss Margaret King's third-grade room in the fall of 1951 and, according to my report card, studied reading, writing, spelling, English, geography, arithmetic, health and music.
A bout of pneumonia that year prompted Dr. Ray Mettetal to excuse me from school for 15 days. Much to my chagrin, my thoughtful teacher sent homework to my residence so I would not get behind in my studies.
One day, a representative from the Gideons arrived at school and presented each student in our class with a New Testament. I received another one in Mrs. Dayton Pierce's fifth-grade class.
My most memorable event that year involved a classmate, Joyce Bible. We sat in close proximity of each other near the front of the class. She lived in the 900 block of Johnson Avenue, just one block west of our house. During a study period, Joyce asked Miss King how to spell a word. She was instructed to look it up in her dictionary. Joyce's quick reply was, "How can I find it in my dictionary if I cannot spell it?" The class found this amusing, but Mrs. King saw little humor in it.
To reinforce her perceived negative behavior, she was ordered to stay in the room and fill the front blackboard (consisting of about four panels) from top to bottom and left to right with a sentence like: "I can learn to spell words by using my dictionary." She was left alone to her dutiful task while the rest of us enjoyed the great outdoors. The large playground was situated between the West Main Street school; Johnson Avenue; King Creek, adjacent to Ralph Miller and Kyle Keezel's Garage; and Kiwanis Park.
When we returned from our break, we found a motionless and expressionless Joyce sitting at her desk. She had written, "I can learn to spell words using my dictionary" once on the top far left side of the board and then proceeded to fill the rest of the boards with ditto marks. Our class members snickered, our teacher scowled. Joyce's punishment was deferred to the following day's recess with stern instructions to get it right this time. Recently, I called Joyce and we enjoyed a good laugh about the incident.
When the weather was not conducive for outdoor recess, Miss King provided indoor games. One of them was called, "Simon Says." I am sure many of us recall that pastime. We would all initially stand beside our desks, with one student standing at the front of the room, assuming the role of Simon. Sometimes the teacher was Simon.
The objective was to perform only those tasks that Simon audibly instructed us to do. If someone inadvertently did something that Simon did not authorize, he or she was eliminated and had to sit down. The winner was the person still standing at the end of the game. Here are some examples:
1. "Simon says, raise your left hand." If you raised your left hand, you remained standing. If you did not or perhaps raised your right hand, you had to sit down. 2. "Clap your hands." If you clapped, you ended up in your seat. If you did nothing, you remained standing. 3. "Simon says, scratch your nose." Scratching your nose would keep you on your feet. If not, you sat down. 4. "Put both hands on your head." Only those who did nothing were allowed to remain standing. You could only do what Simon said to do.
The trick that made the game enjoyable was to do it quickly, causing students to react before the command would register with them. This was a relaxing activity for Miss King, because all she had to do (unless she was Simon) was sit and watch while keeping an eye out for anyone who tried to cheat by not sitting down when they messed up.
Surprisingly, we never played "Simon Says" at home, but instead engaged in another game called, "May I?" (a.k.a. "Mother, May I?"). It had similar elements as "Simon Says," except that players advanced forward taking unusual steps. Where did those wonderful carefree days of yesteryear go? They are gone but not forgotten.

I have been successfully making whole wheat sourdough bread with a very healthy starter but would like to branch out and try some new recipes. Does anyone know of a good sourdough kolache recipe? I would like to avoid using store-bought yeast if at all possible. Thanks! :)
Login or Signup to add your comment.
Hello SarahRaney,
I have successfully converted yeast based recipes just by substituting starter for the yeast component and adjusting the flour and liquid components to allow for the content of the starter.
180g of 100% starter is a good starting point for 500g of flour.
The timing of the bulk ferment and proving will have to be adjusted to suit and if it is a rich dough recipe I have found that it can need quite a bit longer (up to 24 hours in for pannetone).
Let us know how you go and gobbler mince of the season.

Tegra-2 powered tablet boasts hot specs to compliment Android 3.0.
Toshiba has today unveiled its long-rumoured Android 3.0 tablet, the Regza AT300, boasting a spec-sheet that is sure to give the rest of the Honeycomb crowd a serious run for its money.
The powerful device, set for a June launch in Japan, has an NVIDIA Tegra 2 1GHz dual-core, 1GB RAM and 16GB of internal storage, underneath a attractive shell.
The LED-backlit 10.1-inch screen boasts a resolution of 1280x900 and an Adaptive Display which promises better performance in sunlight.
There's also a 5-megapixel rear and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera as well as a HDMI-out and USB, mini USB and SD card compatibility as well as promising a 7-hour battery life.
On paper this looks like a real contender for the slew of Honeycomb tablets set for release later this year. According to the Japanese press release, it'll be reaching US and European markets shortly thereafter.
Let's hope it fairs better for Toshiba than the ill-fated Folio 100 tablet we saw and then didn't see last year.

To the Editor:
On Aug. 24 I ordered the flag on the square, the safety building and the municipal building lowered to half-staff to honor a fallen decorated military veteran and our former police chief, William Raymond McAfee.
I have since become aware that the U.S. Flag Code regulates who has the authority to order the flag flown at half-staff. They include the President of the United States, the governor of a state in specific instances and the mayor of the District of Columbia in specified instances.
That being said, I apologize to any and all who I offended with my order to fly the flag at half-staff in honor of our beloved local veteran. Please be assured my intention was pure and I meant no disrespect to our flag, our nation or our veterans.
A lesson learned from my late father is, "One of the tests of real manhood is whether one is able and willing to admit his faults and mistakes." Whereas my intention was honorable, I admit I was in error ordering the flat flown at half-staff.
All who I offended, please forgive me. I shall not err in this matter again.

Gridlock, and the continued widening of the gap between the two political parties on the federal level, leaves most Americans questioning how we will ever resolve the many problems facing the nation. Both parties have taken political spin mastery to outrageous new levels. Playing to the outer limits of their political bases has done nothing positive for the country and thus it leaves only division, anger, confusion and misinformation among the masses.
More and more American citizens are realizing that neither party has their best interests at heart. Playing chicken, showing complete disrespect for each other and the offices they hold, leaving the country deep in debt while failing to control spending and yet promising that their party alone can solve the ever growing problems facing our nation is leaving citizens with little choice and opportunity. The American political system is now seriously broken and no one in a leadership role nor established party seems prepared to modify their approach in an effort to fix it. Instead this election is shaping up to be just another head bashing, over promising, negative and deeply dividing event sure to leave many frustrated voters wondering how much longer we can tolerate the sad state of the country.
It's doubtful we will see well recognized national figures break ranks from the established parties, join together and provide serious solutions while proving their genuine sincerity. I fear we will be left once again hoping something will change. We need to face the simple fact that neither party candidate will win with a national mandate, thus forcing the losing party to dig in their heels even further causing even greater stonewalling, and the only things growing will be gridlock, unemployment and the national debt. We all know it's going to happen like the car accident that happens before your eyes in slow motion. Gridlock is the only thing Washington has mastered over the last 20 years and it ensures the status quo of "If we can't win then we'll keep you from being successful at all costs so we have a better chance next time around." That game may work for the politicians but it's done little for the country and its future generations.

The Patriot Cup used one of Diamond's coin operated tables. I spoke to Greg Sullivan about these tables and he said they are making both the 9 and 7 foot tables that can distinguish between ordinary cue balls and the object balls allowing standard sets of balls to be used. These tables will allow the bar players to play a game that is just like on the 9 footers. His intention is to make the the two tables play the same and possibly get more players interested in supporting the professional events. If anyone is interested in how the table distinguishes between the balls here is a link to the patent:
The table worked flawlessly at the tournament with a red circle ball and the players adapted to it quickly. I think some of them have played in bars.

Dying for my freedom? Didn't say that. Didn't say I was personally worried either. Classy though, I applaud you for trying to put words in my mouth.
What I did point out was the obvious - that family and friends will undoubtedly read this.
To the 111 and their friends and family - thank you for your service to our country.
It's sad to see that the first two posts here don't even recognize the ultimate sacrifice made by those men and women, or their families who have to continue on after their loss.
Instead it's Hillary Clinton, Ron Paul and Obama. I'm sure their families who read this will appreciate your sympathetic words.
PC-Fide: you have an ex? That's a surprise!
The problem is, I am an adult, your arguments aren't - and when I point that out on occasion - or ask you to clarify your statements so I can understand your point of view - you take offense to it.
- People are stuck? really? They can't think for themselves but you can for them. Excellent.
- People a lot smarter than me? I will grant you that. So corporate buying power for elections is ok with you. Got it.
- citizens hold them to the fire? Like a marshmellow? That's why we vote.
- selective law is an attack on all the law. I agree. If we monitor all highways and streets everywhere, we'll catch all the speeders.
- childish? a legit question. You couldn't answer it because sometimes the individuals rights mean sqaut. The VA Tech killer didn't have the "right" to kill all those students.
- people of which faith? Do you have a priority of faiths in order of importance?
- yes only the executive branch turns over every four years.
- "No other solution is viable since the Jim Crowe Era and Civil Rights movement States rights have been attacked, and rightfully so .But the baby was thrown out with the wash by reducing states ability to function without total federal oversight of every aspect of individuals lives." States Rights! The Confederacy! Was that the baby you refer to?
You didn't answer a single question there - because you can't. You know it and I know it.
Dude - if "You Tube" is your resource - best wishes.
You prattle on with no facts and insult when someone questions you on them. You are free and easy with your taunts of people being ignorant - but when someone questions you - you don't want to play. Why? Because you are a bully who can't respond to what you write.
Greg Oden was the worst first round pick since Kwame Brown. But at least Kwame gave his teams about 500 more games than Greg. That's not a reflection on Greg as a person - it's a reflection of him as a producer for this franchise. The best draft pick in the past ten years was Roy and his health history was ignored.
Look at the first round draft picks in the past ten years. Qyntel Woods. Travis Outlaw. Sebastian Telfair, Martell Webster, LA, Elliot Williams, Roy, Oden. The only one worth a hill of beans right now is LA.
Williams? He made the Jazz trade him. If Williams come here, I bet Wilt the Stilt will as well. The odds are about the same.
This is a franchise in disarray, without a GM, without one of it's two marketable players (Roy/LA), with arguably the worst first round draft choice in the past five years (Oden, Blake Griffin, Derrick Rose, John Wall, Kyrie Irving) and a roster that can't score or rebound. Wallace will be traded because I doubt the Blazers will over pay to keep him.
Oh really? So that playoff game with the Mavs didn't really happen that I was at? You can bend the space/time continuum?
Chris and Armon - one year better. Than? Do you think franchises are tripping over themselves to get these guys? Really - point me to some valid sources that say that. We were 27th in rebounding last year and in the bottom tier of scoring. Chris and Armon give us doodly there. Armon may beat out the kid from Duke - but you can bet Nolan will get enough PT if Nate likes him. This team needs to run.
On a side note: Corey Brewer AND Rudy Fernandez were bundled for a second round pick by the Mavs. Seems Rudy's value has fallen.......
Depends where the draft picks are as well (meaning top ten or bottom five).
Rip City Uprising Again!
Why do you unload Wallace? Because he doesn't like it here and won't resign. Will Crawford come here? No. If he really has an offer from the Knicks he's got a better chance of a ring there. Why are we rebuilding? Because the face of the franchise is gone (Roy), because the Hope of Portland (Oden) is worse off than we think and because no one of note wants to come here.
Welcome to the NBA. At least you don't have to pay for Blazercable anymore.
Draft picks (and second round picks these days are not worth much) mean rebuilding. Our two centers are the oldest in the league. Our shooting guard is a defender (a good one) but not much of a shooter, our 4 is above average, our 3 is maturing, our point is new. They win enough (maybe) to be a number 8 seed so they can get the playoff revenue (NOT getting tickets this year).
Does Seattle have an arena yet? How does rebuilding help a franchise's value? How does moving a crappy team into a non-existant arena play out?
"It should be noted that, once again, the outgoing generation is taking all that they can to enjoy their time on Earth as excessively as possible... regardless of those that they leave holding the bag."
- really, is that everyone in the generation? You've had the time to research this on your public job?
Just like our national debt, our economic injustice, our trashed environment, and our unlikely Social Security benefits... the last generation of PERS employees is taking a big dump on those of us that will inherit their mess.
- Not sure how many times you've voted - but I can assure you most of us didn't vote to bailout Goldman, BofA, Wells Fargo, GM etc. And I'm pretty sure the entire generation didn't vote for economic injustice - where's that drivel coming from?
- Unlikely social security? Guess what. The only ones that thought social security was going to be the end-all-be all are the suckers. Save your money. Do it now. And like yourself - that generation had no choice in being forced into social security. I'm all for justice - cut a check for everyone, with interest, the amount they paid into it and call it a day. Here's a newsflash - that fund has been raided for a billion other things that neither you or I got to vote on.
As a new public employee, MY PERS benefits will never provide enough for me to survive or have comfort during retirement. AT best, if I let them take a huge portion of my barely adequate salary, I might receive a small percentage of what it takes to live in 2036.
- so get a job in the private sector. No one forced me NOT to be a public employee. Did someone force you? Save your money, rely on yourself.
It's got to be a real bear to be the Oregonian.
When they report on Republican candidates, they get flack from the right. When they report on this, they get flack from the left. I bet they are conflicted, those poor little journalists!
"The big lie of Iraq and the Afghanistan is that it was not just up to Bush to go to war . Go back and look up how the Congress voted on this, I think you will be surprised that Congress on both sides of the aisle didn't bother to read intelligence reports."
- And you know this? What intelligence reports didn't Congress read? Could you share them with us all? I thought Colin Powell quit because the intel on Iraq and WMDs was bad? Is that not correct? Can you share the intel please?
Afghanistan was a given after the twin towers were destroyed.Problem here was the root cause was not stopped in Saudi Arabia because of our dependence on oil."
- Just Saudi Arabia? Really? Your basis for this statement is? Other than the bad guys have gone freely between most of the middle eastern countries? Is Pakistan a good guy?
Since you feel it necessary to include Bush in your angst remember that their is not much difference in the progressive left or right .They both use big government to do their bidding.
- Wow. That is a wonderful statement summarizing two parties, the legislative branch of government and all the voters as well. Bravo!
Most likely you are incapable of grasping this, not because you are ignorant, but because you are locked into a percieved ideoligy that doesn't allow you to think for yourself.Bush was a progressive and so is Obama and his progressive left Congress.
- I'd point out the spelling mistakes - but everyone who doesn't bleat like yourself seems to be ignorant or racist, or unable to grasp what your mind easily can. I'd love to see you on national news explaining that last sentence.
"Life is precarious, but it doesn't have to be so; it is only so because of the abuse of the 99% at the hands of the 1%."
Wow - this is precious - I must save it the wisdom in it. May I? Did some expert on humanity and commerce give that?
This was a PR gaffe and you all are going to be made to look like a bunch of patsies by the mainstream media. The corporations don't need to do a thing. With each stunt like this, you lose more and more potential listeners. This is Marxist drivel and the 99% isn't going to change for statements like that. Hurting blue collar workers and then pumping that drivel is something you should be ashamed of, not proud of.
Laughs! Believe me I live within my means. But when I need financial advice - I'll be sure to leverage your expertise jj!
Who has the best chance of going to a conference final? The Knicks. I expect he will sign with them - but hope he signs here. We need the scoring punch.

And also this happens if u dont accept their conditions......Wake up...Dont be used by Yahood and Nasara.
It is a war, but unfortunately there is no end to it and this is for sure that the causality will be Pakistan and its people. People living in Islamabad and Waziristan.
We have come to the level of such moral values that unless it is not our father, mother, sister or brother, we hardly care about the death, abduction or murder of any other human being.
Professional army and clear from Yazeed Gullism philosophy. I would say again we need very strong and professional army as institution but not as political party. Gullism is destroying our country internally.
Pakistan Army Zindabad, Pakistan Paindabad
I know life and death is in the hands of Allah, but there is some responsibilities on every body's shoulders and we expect that our army will protect us from our enimies but they can't protect themselves I dont trust them that they are capable to protect our country,. We should tnk abt it
Rest of the families should be sent to some "camp" for life, and it should be made sure that their lives are hard like hell.
This is a preventive measure to kill the motivation of these savages who would know that if they are suicidal, they are taking their families to hell as well. Hence the motivation that families will be taken good care of and would be paid millions after their death, will vanish.
Believe me, make few examples and it will save millions of lives.
I don't care if few thousand savages are killed to save 170 million.
iceprince30 added 7 Minutes and 3 Seconds later...
Unlike USA, it is the question of the very survival of Pakistan and 170 MILLION people (women, children, teachers, elders, disabled included) + millions of trees, plants, animals, fish,... you name it.
So this is the sacrifice which is acceptable to our nation.

If these Talibans live in peace and denounce terrorism, stop harboring international terrorists, let the govt. establish its writ in those areas, why would anyone in his right mind want to bomb them?
But as you, me and every other citizen of Pakistan has witnessed, these Jahil terrorists (foot soldiers of indians and other foreign powers), drug growing zealots are only interested in few things... power, money and murder.
So its about time to get rid of this for once and all.
And BTW, this is the demand of innocent people living there as well, to liberate them from those savages.
Swat is right before our eyes. Thumbs up for our brave army for minimal collateral damage!
I am out now...Lets all pray for our country and the devolepment and peace of it...Aamin

Is Penn Badgley now a single man? Bristol Palin is set to make another reality TV appearance, and fans of The Hobbit can rejoice.
Is Penn Badgley now a single man? Bristol Palin is set to make another reality TV appearance, and fans of The Hobbit can rejoice.
Could Will Smith be done with big-budget flicks? John Travolta drops in on a Georgia wedding, and Henry Cavill keeps a cool head while taking the lead in Man Of Steel.
Oh, but can't it be both? While we understand almost all moves made by divas, Brad Pitt's alleged decision to stop talking to World War Z director Marc Forster is a head-scratcher indeed. According to Vulture, the actor has become so annoyed with Forster, "he stopped speaking to him altogether as the production heads into at least three weeks of reshoots." You fool! Don't you know that communication is the only way to survive a zombie apocalypse…movie? The two apparently communicate via "messages relayed through an intermediary." Yikes, this movie has been having problems since last October when a SWAT team seized "85 fully functional guns" being unlawfully used as props. Did you hear us? The film has been shooting since last October! In some cases, literally!
All of which makes Pitt's refusal to talk to Forster make complete and utter sense…if Brad was determined to drag filming out and/or make the situation a whole lot worse. The movie's budget has apparently ballooned to $170 million, you have weeks of re-shoots and you're going to make someone run Post-It notes to the director? Brad, baby. Let's stop this foolishness and go kill some zombies. We promise we'll all see it when it hits theaters. We're sure everything will work out just…what's that? The ending of the movie itself is "still in flux?" Oh. Oh no.
[Photo: Getty Images]
You had better finish your screenplay for Benjamin Button 2: Electric Button-loo this weekend, because apparently Brad Pitt claimed in an interview that he'll be out of the movie star game around 2015. "Three years,†the Moneyball star told Australia's 60 Minutes when asked how long he planned to continue his acting career. "I am really enjoying the producing side and development of stories and putting those pieces together. And getting stories to the plate that might have had a tougher time otherwise."
Brad recently wrapped up his upcoming zombie flick World War Z, and still has Voyage of Time and historical drama Twelve Years a Slave on the docket so far. Oh right, and he and Angelina Jolie might be prepping for a seventh child. "I don't know that we're finished,†Pitt said when asked if any addition new baby friends would be joining the family soon. "I don't know yet. I don't know.†As much as we want, nay need, an additional Jolie-Pitt, three years is not enough to cram in as much Brad to tide us us over forever. If Brad really is bowing out, what do you want to see him do in the next three years?
If we didn't know better, we'd think this was a news story concocted just to make Brad Pitt's World War Z movie seem more awesome. Just kidding; what could be more awesome than a zombie apocalypse movie? Literally nothing. Us Weekly reported today that the Moneyball star's latest movie got raided in Budapest by a SWAT team, after word got out that the production was receiving functional firearms for use on-camera. Oh, also the movie has Brad Pitt in it, which is why all the agents were squealing and giggling when they stormed in.
Hungary's Anti-Terrorism Unit allegedly removed 85 fully functional guns, which included "automatic, military-style assault rifles" from the film's warehouse. "We can confirm that weapons were confiscated at an airport," said unit director Hajdu Janos and deputy director Zsolt Bodnar, adding, "Guns like these are highly illegal to transport even if they were to used as stage guns, which hopefully they weren't." We're sure the extras are relieved at least. Terrifying zombie makeup plus workable firearms sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Ouch, they're back!
We are, of course, talking about those pesky mosquitoes. And while most Americans consider mosquitoes to be nothing more than a nuisance, they do pose a real public health threat that can prove deadly for some.
The Environmental Protection Agency says mosquito-borne diseases affect millions of people worldwide each year. Some species of mosquitoes in the United States can transmit diseases such as dengue fever and malaria to humans, as well as a variety of diseases to wildlife and domestic animals.
You can take steps to control the mosquito population on your property by eliminating breeding habitats for the insects. That means getting rid of any standing water around the home, including water in potted plant dishes, garbage cans, old tires and wading pools. Mosquitoes can breed in any puddle that lasts more than four days.
The number of reported cases of West Nile virus, which is one of the diseases transmitted through mosquito bites, has declined in recent years, thanks in part to the efforts of local governments to step up the use of chemical and biological pesticides to control the mosquito population.
The EPA says that in general people do not need to relocate during mosquito spraying because the pesticides used by local governments have been certified by the agency to be safe to humans and the environment when used correctly. Even so, some people may prefer to avoid or minimize their exposure to these sprays.
For those people, the EPA recommends that people who suffer from chemical sensitivities or feel spraying may aggravate existing health problems should consult their physicians or local health departments and take special measures to avoid exposure.
Residents should always close their windows and turn off window unit air conditioners when spraying is taking place. It's also important to prevent children from playing near or behind truck-mounted applicators when they are in use.

Menu - MN Neptunia, Lloyd Triestino Line, Dinner, 5 Jan 1952 Reg. No: HT 1558
- Summary:
- Dinner Menu from the ship MN Neptunia on the Italian Lloyd Triestino Line. The Menu is printed in Italian and English and was used on the 5th January 1952. It is part of a collection of ship menus collected by Margaret Wood an officer in the Department of Immigration from 1951-1960. As part of her role Margaret often met migrant ships arriving at Station Pier in Melbourne if the ships arrived at mealtimes, she would be invited on board to join people for a meal.
Margaret first worked in the Department of Alien Assimilation which focused on migrants post arrival, before moving to the Assisted Division which handled the reception of assisted European migrants arriving in Melbourne. Her final position was working for the General Assisted Passage Scheme, assisting migrants from the US, Scandinavia and Switzerland who came individually on general ships as opposed to migrant ships. She recalls her time with the Department with great pleasure. She was a young single woman and had just finished an Arts degree at Melbourne University. When she applied to the Public Service, she was placed with the Department of Immigration, as she spoke German. She left when she married in 1961 as per the policy at that time.
- Description:
- White card menu featuring a sepia toned illustration of a building with many domed rooves. A young girl and a veiled woman in the forefront. The inside of the menu has the menu printed in Italian on the left hand side and in English on the other.

The Rockaway peninsula, a barrier beach eleven miles long in southern Queens, includes the neighborhoods of Far Rockaway, Arverne, Rockaway Beach, Rockaway Park, Belle Harbor, Breezy Point, and Neponsit. The original inhabitants of the Rockaways were the Canarsie Indians. It is thought the name Rockaway is derived from "rechquarkie", an Indian word with many spelling variants, which means "the place of our people", or "the sand place".
The Rockaways, along with Coney Island in Brooklyn, were long a favorite summer resort for New Yorkers, only declining in popularity after World War II. Considered a healthy place to get away from the dirt and heat of the city, people flocked to the beaches in the summer. There were once piers, pavilions by the water, grand hotels, large rooming houses, and colonies of beach cottages. Most cottages have disappeared, but some still are in use today, and in some areas there is attention to their preservation. The amusement park "Playland" opened in 1901 and enjoyed a heyday until it closed in 1986. The entire area has undergone many changes: enduring urban blight, seeing vigorous housing development, moving from being largely a resort area to a bedroom community.
In 1935, 30,000 to 36,000 people lived in Rockaway Beach. According to the U.S. Census, the largest immigrant groups were Irish, German, Russian, and Jewish. The population rose 25% between 1950 and 1959, including the addition of African-American residents. In 1998, the population of the Rockaways was almost 100,000. Today, the population of the community includes Polish, Hungarian, Hispanic, Chinese, Korean, and Arabic immigrants.
Its proximity to the mainland still draws thousands of summer visitors from the rest of the city to enjoy its beaches and sea air.
An article in the Rockaway Argus newspaper in 1930 refers to "numerous additions" to the "collection of books" at the first Seaside Branch, located at the north side of Beach Channel Drive. In her annual report for 1929, the children's librarian refers to the many summer beachgoers coming to the library.
In April 1961, the Seaside Branch relocated as a "storefront library" on the ground floor of the Pioneer Hotel at 184 Beach 116th Street. Open House was held during National Library Week. There were 52,000 books in its collection. Harold Tucker was Chief Librarian of QBPL. That branch closed in January 1977 while construction continued on the present branch at 116-15 Rockaway Beach Blvd. The staff moved to the Peninsula Branch until the new Seaside Branch was completed and opened in 1979.
In 2010 the Seaside Library was renovated. The renovation included new furniture, interior changes, self check out, RFID technology, a Young Adult area, and more public computers

I've been to the Blanton museum of art in Austin, Tx. My mom actually volunteers there so I know all the names, artists and meanings to every single painting at the art museum.

Experience VS. Understanding to appreciate.
I think if you are openminded and willing to try to understand you can appreciate most good things in life. You guys are great. Moldy cheese = Modern art. LOL
My sons and I have started watching since they've been on vaca.

Cloud computing to play key role in one exec's future vision
Speaking at the recent Hot Chips conference, Mark Papermaster, CEO for AMD, detailed a future of technology use that he dubbed "surround computing," TechNewsWorld reported.
According to the news source, Papermaster defines surround computing as a method for accessing technology that is more intuitive and immersive in nature, allowing users to access computing resources through hand gestures, voice controls and other movements instead of having to use a keyboard and mouse.
This ideal represents a large stride forward for computing, as it requires considerable IT resources to make it work. Papermaster told audiences that surround computing will not only require advanced chip systems, but also cloud computing infrastructure services and similar solutions.
Cloud computing is emerging as an important enabler for a variety of technological solutions. Its ability to support application and data access from any location with an internet connection is helping fuel the internet of things and similar movements that experts anticipate will play a vital role in the future of computing. Essential, the cloud provides the foundation for many emerging technology trends.

Targeting BMP9-Promoted Human Osteosarcoma Growth by Inactivation of Notch Signaling

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary malignancy of bone and is usually associated with poor prognosis due to its high incidence of metastasis and chemoresistance. Molecular pathogenesis of OS is poorly understood. We previously showed that OS cells are refractory to BMP9-induced osteogenesis and respond favorably to proliferation and tumor growth. Here we investigate if Notch signaling mediates the BMP9-promoted cell proliferation and tumor growth of human osteosarcoma (OS). We find that the expression of Notch1, Notch2, Notch3, DLL1, JAG1 and JAG2 is readily detected in most of the tested OS cell lines. BMP9-promoted OS cell proliferation, migration, and cell cycle S/G2 progression are effectively inhibited by a dominant-negative mutant of Notch1 (dnNotch1) or the γ-secretase inhibitor Compound E (ComE). Furthermore, BMP9-promoted tumor growth and osteolytic lesions in vivo are significantly inhibited by dnNotch1. BMP9 up-regulates the expression of Notch1, Notch3, DLL1, and JAG1 in OS cells. Accordingly, BMP9 stimulation induces a nuclear accumulation of NICD, which is blocked by ComE. Our results demonstrate that BMP9-promoted OS proliferation and tumor growth is at least in part mediated by Notch signaling, suggesting that osteogenic BMPs may function as upstream regulators of Notch signaling in OS tumorigenesis. Thus, pharmacologic intervention of Notch signaling may be explored as a new therapeutic strategy for human OS tumors.

Durham, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - Jabari Parker broke out of his mid-season slump with a team-high 23 points to go with seven rebounds, as No. 23 Duke cruised to a 95-60 triumph over North Carolina State at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
After scoring 20-or-more points in 10 of his first 12 collegiate games, Parker had been held under the 20-point plateau in each of his last five games.
However, the freshman phenom found his rhythm Saturday, sinking half of his 14 shots from the field, including both of his 3-point tries, to help the Blue Devils (14-4, 3-2 ACC) remain unbeaten at home (11-0) thanks to their 27th straight win at Cameron Indoor Stadium.
"I think [the keys were] my preparation and just my experience from the last couple of games," Parker said of breaking out of his slump. "I just had to be a little bit more prepared going in and avoid the [NC State] scouting report on what they want me to do rather than what I have to do."
Rasheed Sulaimon supplied 13 points, Rodney Hood and Andre Dawkins each had 11, and Quinn Cook contributed 10 points in the win.
T.J. Warren registered 23 points and eight rebounds to lead NC State (11-7, 1-4), which has lost three straight and four of its last five games.
"We turned the ball over too many times," NC State head coach Mark Gottfried remarked. "We've got to obviously be a lot stronger with the basketball, and they took turnovers and turned them into baskets, which was the biggest difference in the game."
Warren's 3-pointer had the Wolfpack within 17-16 less than eight minutes into the game, but Hood, Cook and Parker each poured in a triple during a decisive 14-4 Duke surge that increased the spread to 11 with 6:57 left in the half.
The Blue Devils built their lead as high as 15 twice over the final six minutes of the first frame before carrying a 45-32 lead into the break.
Duke extended the margin early in the second, as Parker netted five points in a 7-0 sprint that pushed the cushion to 54-34 with 16:25 on the clock.
With the difference at 21 with just under nine minutes left, the home team put the game away with an 18-4 flurry that Sulaimon capped with three free throws for a 35-point Duke lead with under five minutes to play.
Duke has won 16 straight at home against NC State, with the Wolfpack's last
road win in the series coming back in 1995 ... Duke scored 33 points off 21 NC
State turnovers, while the Wolfpack netted just two points off eight turnovers
from the Blue Devils ... Duke shot 45.8 percent (11-of-24) from 3-point range,
while NC State shot 25 percent (2-of-8) from distance ... The Blue Devils
registered 19 assists on 33 made baskets, while the Wolfpack had just six
helpers on 25 made field goals.

Auction Saturday, June 14 at 10am on site
In 1923 Oakley and Parkes won a nationally advertised competition to design the houses for senior public servants being transferred to Canberra.
Number 51 Dominion Circuit in Forrest was one of those homes and over the years has been extended and renovated, resulting in an elegant and charming family home in Canberra's most prestigious suburb.
Gated and hedged from the street, the semi-circular driveway and landscaped front yard makes a grand impression and I'm excited to explore this property known as 'Blandford'.
In keeping with the 1920s design, the home features high ceilings, big windows and original fireplaces in both the charming formal lounge room and library. Through the library there's a cosy sunroom, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee.
The large formal dining follows, perfect for elegant formal dining and leads into the kitchen that has a large walk-in-pantry, lots of cupboard space and overlooks the family and meals area. The full wall-length windows frame the garden vistas beautifully and doors open up onto an expansive outdoor entertaining terrace that overlooks the private garden with established trees and lawn. The massive four-car garage can also be accessed from the backyard.
Back inside there are two bathrooms and three large bedrooms, the master bedroom is grand with the original fireplace, lead light windows, a walk-in-robe that leads into a modern en suite and a private courtyard.
One of the features I love about this home is the light-filled central courtyard, designed to be seen from all the living areas and a great spot to indulge in a good book.
With a price guide of more than $2.2 million, this property is suited for the buyer seeking the finer things in life, a beautiful heritage home, gorgeous gardens, prestige location and a residence that will forever be part of Canberra's history.
Owners quote - "Our home is fantastic for entertaining with family and friends, its central location is perfect for a relaxed lifestyle being near some of the best restaurants and schools. Although we are sad to be leaving, we will always retain fond memories."
Room for improvement: For the modern family, it's time the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry are updated.

DECATUR, Ga. (AP) - Filmmaker Tyler Perry is donating a new vehicle to a Georgia woman with cerebral palsy after her specially-equipped van was stolen outside Atlanta.
Perry tells Atlanta station WSB-TV he decided to give Alicia Day a brand new van after he saw a news report about the theft this week.
Authorities say Day's 2000 Chrysler Town and Country van was stolen from her Decatur driveway sometime Sunday night.
Day, who uses a wheelchair, told WSB she prides herself on being independent and works part-time as a greeter at Home Depot. Her mother relied on the van to take Day to work and to doctor appointments.
Day said "my mouth just dropped to the floor" when she learned Perry would give her a new van.
