Jenny Morrison's Homemade Pop Tarts
Pate Brisee
1 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (245 grams)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 cup cold unsalted butter , cut into 12 pieces (2 sticks or 228 grams)
• 2 egg yolks
• 3 tablespoons cold milk
• 1 egg , lightly beaten
• 1 cup raspberry jam (340 grams)
Simple Vanilla Glaze
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar (140 grams)
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 -3 tablespoons water
• rainbow candy sprinkles , for sprinkling (optional)
FOR THE PATE BRISEE: Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or a handheld mixer), mix together flour, sugar, and salt for 10 - 15 seconds, or until combined. Scatter butter over the top. Mix on low speed for 1 - 1 1/2 minutes, or just until the flour is no longer bright white and holds together when you clump it and lumps of butter the size of pecans are visible throughout.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and milk until blended. Add to the flour mixture all at once. Mix on low speed for about 30 seconds, or until the dough just barely comes together. It will look really shaggy and more like a mess than a dough.
Dump the dough out onto an unfloured work surface, then gather it together into a tight mound. Using your palm and starting on one side of the mound, smear the dough bit by bit, starting at the top of the mound and then sliding your palm down the side and along the work surface, until most of the butter chunks are smeared into the dough and the dough comes together. Do this once or twice on each part of the dough, moving through the mound until the whole mess has been smeared into a cohesive dough with streaks of butter. Gather up the dough, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and press down to flatten into a disk about 1 inch thick. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before using. The dough will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month. (Makes about 18 oz dough, enough for 8 pop-tarts or one 9-inch double-crust pie.).
FOR THE POP-TARTS: Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 350°F Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it in half. Press each half into a rectangle. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each half into a 14-by-11-inch rectangle. Using a paring knife, lightly score 1 rectangle into eight 3 1/2-by-5 1/2-inch rectangles (about the size of an index card).
Brush the top surface of the entire scored rectangle with the egg. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the jam in a mound in the center of each scored rectangle. Lay the second large dough rectangle directly on top of the first. Using fingertips, carefully press down all around each jam mound, so the pastry sheets adhere to each other.
Using a knife, a pizza roller, or a fluted roller, and following the scored lines, cut the layered dough into 8 rectangles. Place the rectangles, well spaced, on a baking sheet.
Bake for 40 - 45 minutes, or until the tops of the pastries are evenly golden brown. Let cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
FOR THE GLAZE: While the pastries are cooling, in a small bowl, whisk together confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and enough of the water to make a smooth, pourable glaze. You should have about 1/2 cup. (The glaze can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temp for up to 1 week.).
When the pastries have cooled for 30 minutes, brush the tops evenly with the glaze, then sprinkle with the rainbow sprinkles (if using). Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the glaze to set before serving. The pastries can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Well, he scored again. Only this time he really scored a big one. Who? You know, the same guy that said to Kane, "Go ahead, bump off your brother, he thinks he is so much better than you and no one will know."
He has been around ever since, encouraging us to think his way. He was there to work the crowd to cry for Barbbas instead of Christ. The prophet Isaiah spoke of him who encourages us to "call good evil and call evil good." (Isa:5:20)
The big one started about 25 years ago when the State of Massachusetts legalized sodomy among consenting adults. Then, years later, a president allowed them to enter the military thus giving them another large field to spread their deadly poison. Now the High Court of Massachusetts has taken that large step into the depth of degradation by taking the most beautiful and purest of God's ordinances, that of marriage between man and woman, and casting it into that infernal pit by legalizing same sex marriage.
A certain Christian denomination in New Hampshire went along with this trend by appointing a gay man as a new bishop of the church. Some of the ordained ministers of that church have publicly expressed that they feel that they have been betrayed.
There is an old saying, "After all is said and done, as a rule, more is said than done." But unless this changes and more is done, we stand to lose all that we hold dear to us. We are already being smothered with hard-core pornography and profanity which permeates our environment through the media, the courts and the legislative halls.
It has come to our attention that beginning the first of the year 2004 there will be 37 new TV series starting and that the majority of those will contain "adult language," "nudity" and violence." This cannot be controlled by law officers or by legislation. This is an individual matter that must be fought by parents and adults who want their families to grow up in a free and God loving world.
There is an old western proverb that says, "Never duel with seven men when all you are packing is a six-gun." Let us make no mistake about it, the battle with the evil one is real, and we must have plenty of ammunition to handle it.

Fun With FOTSIE!
When we first found out about FOTSIE Wraps we had to have them, even though we were just going into the colder months. In addition to being one of the most original designs we've seen, they're also hand made in the USA, from a tiny woman-run company — we happen to have a soft spot for that.
Now that Spring is here, we're getting more adventurous in experimenting with these hand-crafted foot adornments, and wanted to share some of our results with you! The thing we first loved about these is that they fit into the same wardrobe niche which has been filled by a whole lot of no-shows in recent years. Now, we do understand the appeal of a low-coverage sock in summer, but something about trying to look like you're not wearing socks at all seems just a little sacrilegious to some of us. What's great about FOTSIE Wraps is that while they work with most of the outfits that one would wear no-shows with, they are visible, and add a great embellishment to your shoes, while being a light-weight whisper of fabric that lets your feet breathe in hot weather.
As it turns out, they're also great for adding adorable accents to your shoes in cooler months, given enough layers! Because most of them are sheer, they layer over solid tights beautifully. Dreamer Rae put her black wraps over burgundy Opaque Tights, so a deep dark red shows through. Dreamer Lucy went for lower cotrast, wearing her royal Heart Lace wraps over french blue tights, giving the combination a tonal effect.
For Dreamer Paige, it's less about color, and more about what you do with the ties! She styled two looks for us, the first of which utilizes a pair of the Heart Lace Wraps with a pair of the Solid Modal Wraps for added volume! For her second look she layered just the sheer heart lace wraps over contrasting socklings (kept in place by garters from Revivall Clothing), but stretched the wraps up her ankles before tying them in back, so that more of the lace pattern can be seen!
Dreamer Rosalind was mostly concerned with the interplay of ankle boots and the wraps, in terms of both contrasting colors and heights – the Lace Wraps are just tall enough for their ties to trail over the tops of booties in back, for a romantic effect where you might not expect to find one. Samara Animal Print Tights add to the unusual and striking nature of this ensemble.
FOTSIE actually stands for Fruits Of The Spirit In Effect, and creativity is certainly a fruit of the spirit! We encourage you to approach wearing these with the same creativity which their inventor, Marlene, has put into the conception of these fun and versatile wraps!

Sock Confidential
Do you prefer to dream discreetly?
We would like to take a moment to let you know that we are happy to send out packages without our company name on the exterior. Often people request this when ordering gifts for someone they live with, but we know that there are a variety of reasons for which you may not wish to have your package identified as being from us, and we are not at all offended by these requests.
An example of a discreet domestic shipping label.
We think it is important to note that due to customs laws, we are required to attach a copy of the invoice, which lists items purchased, to the exterior of all international shipments. For this copy of the invoice, we list all items as "socks", which we think is fairly innocuous. We must also provide a name for the return address. In cases where international customers request discreet packaging, we use an alternative (and more ambiguous) company name. We are working on removing all searchable ties to this name, but we think you should know that if you are concerned about prying eyes, international shipments may not be 100% secure. If you think that somebody you live with might open the customs packet or Google our alternative company name, you might want to try to find a safer address to ship to, or arrange to pick it up at a post office, if possible. We know that these measures aren't possible for everybody, and are working to minimize these issues, though we must comply with customs law.
Examples of our international labels with our alternative name. Unfortunately we must include a name, but this one should be less obvious than Sock Dreams.
Your identities, privacy and personal safety are of the utmost importance to us. Just leave us an order note requesting that we leave off our company name and logo when you check out (order notes are on the same page as shipping options) and we will absolutely respect your wishes.

Dreamer Dress Up Finalists: Amethyst and Violet
We had our best turn out yet for February's Dreamer Dress Up contest. The theme was Amethyst and Violet. In other words, shades of purple. We received some truly gorgeous submissions this time and we want to share them with you!
Our first two finalists brought out the beauty of purple's darker hues. Olivia stunning cape brings out the richness of the plum in her Extraordinary Striped Thigh Highs, and makes the lilac really pop. Meshel, who was very nearly in our top three, found a skirt that exactly matched the purple in her Multi Stripe Over the Knee socks. Olivia and Meshel really captured the theme of our contest with their sweet and flirtatious entries.
Heather's lavender outfit, Long Cuffable Scrunchables, and tree hugging photo captivated the lighter side of purple. They also made us smile. Jess and Erin traveled from Washington to our shop in Portland to show off their violet socks. Jess paired her Striped OTK Toe Socks with a rainbow skirt, while Erin's Extraordinary Striped Thigh Highs added some color to her little black dress. Steph is staying warm and looking cool in her Fleece Lined Leggings. She sent a special message to her fiance on Valentines with this outfit by adding the Love Ya crews.
It is cold up in the North East right now, and that's why Amy Lynn is wearing triple layers. She is getting cozy in dark red Purple Knees over plum M45's, which she has layered over her Signature Cotton Tights by Foot Traffic. Sadeyeartist, as our next model prefers to be called, is also from the North East. She is keeping warm by staying indoors and wearing two Crinoline Skirts over purple Striped Tights. She stays extra warm with Super Long Ribbed Leg Warmers which she keeps in place with Snappy D-Ring Garters.
As for our three finalists, we just couldn't resist any of them. Summer rocks her plum and lilac Super Stripes, and an amazing guitar. Nate is lovely in his Extraordinary Striped Thigh Highs. And Rose, well, Rose pulled together seven different Sock Dreams items into one of the best photos we've received so far! If you want to learn more about these three finalists and why we loved them so much, check out our newsletter!
Our next Dreamer Dress Up Contest is "Flora and Fauna". Check out the official rules here! We want to see your best use of floral and animal themed products. Just send us an email to firstname.lastname@example.com by April 13th with the following:
- 1 or 2 photos, no larger than 500 x 700 pixels, which best show your entire outfit.
- A description of the Sock Dreams products used and how they fit the theme.
- Your full name, preferred public name, and preferred pronoun (they, she, he, etc).
- Your city, state, zip code, phone number, and email address.
Each person sending in a valid entry will receive a 10% discount code which they can use on their next purchase. Our three lucky winners will all receive a $50 gift card as well. Just think! That could be you!

la Fée Verte
Some of you may have noticed over the years that we here at Sock Dreams are rather fond of our vices… while "sock hoarding" is probably the number one vice for most of us, we're also fans of assorted boozes, in moderation. Gumball Poodle has been good enough to supply us with so many boozy word socks over the years that it wasn't until after a photoshoot at our friendly neighborhood bar (featuring virgin drinks – after all, it was 3PM and we were all on the clock) that we noticed kind of a conspicuous hole in our sock liquor cabinet…. ABSINTHE!
Distilled with anise seed and fennel (which makes it taste vaguely of licorice), Absinthe was once very popular among artists, writers, Parisiennes and romantics in general, but gained notoriety due to its traditional inclusion of wormword. Stemming from severely overblown reports of the psychoactive properties of this drink (in reality it is no more hallucinogenic than whiskey or vodka), it was made illegal in many countries for the better part of a century. It was relegalized in the USA a few years back, and while those of us who have tried it are more fond of it in theory than reality, there's no denying the allure of this infamous beverage.
Those of you familiar with the history of this drink (or perhaps the film Moulin Rouge) may also have heard of "la fée verte," or "the green fairy". This is not only a euphemism for the drink itself, but the embodiment of the artistic spirit and romantic ideals. About 2 minutes into our conversation about getting ABSINTHE socks it became clear that we would need coordinating fairy socks. We settled on the spelling, "FAERY," as it was a nice compromise between "fairy" and "faerie", and looked the best in our signature Art Nouveau font.
And so it is that we present to you our two new Sock Dreams exclusive styles from Gumball Poodle – ABSINTHE and FAERY in inverted colors – perfect for mixing or matching! We recommend pouring them over a sugar lump and diluting with water until they become slightly cloudy…… or just put them on your feet and enjoy! Most importantly, always drink (or wear) your ABSINTHE responsibly!

CANTON Vandals knocked over headstones and did other damage Sunday at St. Marys Catholic Cemetery on Riverside Drive in the town.
St. Lawrence County Sheriffs Department deputies said 36 headstones were knocked over or displaced. Flags and flower pots also were broken.
The Rev. Douglas J. Lucia said visitors noticed things were out of place in the cemetery about 1:15 p.m. Sunday and notified him. He then went to the cemetery to see what had happened. After realizing the amount of damage, he reported it to the police.
Im not as much angry as I am saddened that people would do this, he said. Parishioners have been coming through the cemetery all morning and theyre all just disgusted with whats happened, he said.
Father Lucia said that from what he could tell, most of the stones were disconnected from their bases and not broken. Workers from Witherbee and Whalen Inc., a Canton company that makes cemetery memorials, will help put them back on their bases this morning, he said.
The priest said hell seek justice and restitution.
Deputies are asking anyone with information about the vandalism to contact the sheriffs office at 379-2222.

|Shane Brown adjusts the tree on his copper farm creation.
Creating beautiful art pieces out of scrap metal is a hobby that has become a way of life for Shane Brown.
Brown, who is the plant operation manager in charge of maintenance at Castle Country Care Center, has found a way of relaxing and at the same time create beautiful masterpieces for his family and friends.
When mechanics think of scrap copper that comes out of old motors or battery cables they often think of discarding it as waste, but what is one man's waste serves as the ingredients for another man's masterpiece.
Brown takes the scrap pieces of cable and begins the tedious process of twisting together each strand. He twists and twists until he has formed a tree. He twists some more and begins to create a barn and then a house and after about a year of twisting, while watching television or just relaxing he has created a beautiful farmstead, set on top of a sandstone rock found in his flower garden. And all this from tiny strands of copper wire. The farmstead, complete with a windmill, tractor, outhouse, and every detail right down to furniture inside the house, stairway to the second floor, a battery in the tractor and a rope holding on to the pail inside the well.
A chandelier with a pearl from his wife, Jackie's pearl earrings, hanging in the dining room and the little tractors and vehicles have motors as they sit in driveways in front of the shop and on the roads that lead to the barn and field. The carburetor on the truck is made from tin.
What appears to be water is a oval shaped mirror and next to it is a stream and bridge. A unique water wagon is parked next to the blacksmith shop.
The large rock that he chose to use as a foundation for the farmstead is a shale found in his garden. It is higher on one side which gives the feeling that the house and barn are on a hillside and as one's eyes follow the road down the hill it leads to a field, bunkhouse and blacksmith shop.
|Patient hands at work. Shane Brown carefully connects the unique tree made entirely of twisted copper to the rock base of the farm setting.
It's a hobby that has developed over 20 years and the project is created while he relaxes and watches TV. "I always have a project sitting by my chair," says Brown.
"After a long day at work I need something to take my mind off work and relieve the stress," he says, who admits that he has learned to be patient with hours of twisting copper.
"I got started a long time ago when I saw a tree made out of copper in a store and I felt they wanted too much money, so I began experimenting with copper wire I found around the place. The next thing I knew I was collecting copper wire and sandstone rocks," he explains.
He made his mother a scene that resembles a gold mine and has several variations of farms. This particular scene was made for his daughter, Teri Branson, as a birthday gift. Since she works at the Balance Rock Cafe in Helper the piece is displayed there, alone with many of the other unique items and antiques.
His daughter-in-law, Dolly Kessler, is now hooked on the techniques. "She is very creative and has a lot of patience and started by building houses and a windmill."
One day his wife, Jackie, will get one of his pieces but so far all his creations have gone to other people for celebrations like Christmas, birthdays or anniversaries.
Twisting copper wire and creating beautiful masterpieces not only serves Brown as a way to relax but it produces unique and interesting gifts.

The town of Watertown Planning Board will get the first look tonight at site plans for a proposed Nice N Easy Grocery Shoppes convenience store at the old site of Bomax Inc. at Route 12F and Salmon Run Mall Road.
The Planning Board intends to review site plans for the 5,000-square-foot store and schedule a public hearing for the project. According to preliminary plans, the station would have a 16-dispenser fuel canopy off Salmon Run Mall Road.
Valentine Stores Inc., Watertown, which owns about a dozen Nice N Easy stores in the region, will operate the proposed location. It would be constructed on about 1.5 acres consisting of two parcels owned by Toped and Prime development companies, whose principal is Alexandria Bay developer P.J. Simao.
Watertown Deputy Town Clerk Pamela D. Desormo, who also serves on the Planning Board, said Friday she had not seen the sites modified plans yet. Representatives from GYMO Architecture, Engineering & Land Surveying P.C. were still putting the final touch-ups to the plans Friday and would then unveil them Monday night, she said.
The Planning Board would probably then take action on the site plans at the March 4 meeting, she said.
Another Nice N Easy store is just a mile down the road at 19853 Route 12F, town of Hounsfield.
In 2007, Toped Management Services Inc. acquired the Bomax property, 22222 Salmon Run Mall Road, through a public auction for $1,000.
The property, stretching between Interstate 81 and the entry road from Route 12F to Salmon Run Mall, has been considered prime commercial development land.
Bomax, a manufacturer of small motors, closed operations in 2004. The decaying, 50-year-old building has been vacant since then, which left town officials occasionally complaining about its deteriorated condition.

A day later, the light had come on and Heath Kufahl could connect the dots.
Something about the way everything lined up leading to his magical moment Tuesday night at the Oklahoma City Thunder game convinced him that his fling was far from a fluke.
A day later, the light had come on and Heath Kufahl could connect the dots.
Something about the way everything lined up leading to his magical moment Tuesday night at the Oklahoma City Thunder game convinced him that his fling was far from a fluke.
Kufahl is the 37-year-old fan who swished a halfcourt shot just before the start of the fourth quarter. He became the first person this season to win the $20,000 prize.
"I was obviously really excited," he said, looking back on his celebratory dash around the Chesapeake Energy Arena court. "I kind of reacted like a little kid, but that's OK."
He had good reason.
Kufahl's wife, Jenni, is battling Stage III appendix cancer.
The fight is nearing five months. Jenni has undergone chemotherapy for nearly four.
To the Kufahl family, the prize money is precious. Much of it will go toward mounting medical bills.
But both Heath and Jenni believe there was more to that miraculous shot and the subsequent oversized five-figure cardboard check with which they were presented moments after stunning the sellout crowd of 18,203.
Instead of grieving upon her diagnosis, Jenni had the desire to be an inspiration. She wanted to turn her personal battle into a blessing for others. Use her pain as a platform.
On Wednesday, the Kufahl's telephone lines were flooded by local and national news outlets. All wanted to hear the heartwarming story. Prominent Internet sites wrote about it. ESPN's top show, SportsCenter, had Heath and Jenni on for a live interview. CNN even carried the story.
"Being able to hit that shot and the excitement of that just opened that even more," Heath said. "She's been able to kind of tell her story and our story and hopefully be a blessing to people to know that life is difficult but God's in control. We saw that (Tuesday) night. That wasn't only going to happen by chance. I think he was in control."
Heath Kufahl coaches boys basketball and volleyball at Christian Heritage Academy in Del City. His father-in-law, John Merrell, is the school's athletic director and varsity football coach.
Late last season, Merrell missed a pivotal game to be by Jenni's side as she lay in a hospital bed. She had been diagnosed just two days earlier.
One week after Jenni turned 38, Merrell sat helpless by his daughter's bed as she asked the doctor if she was going to die.
"I had no idea what a horrible disease cancer was," Merrell said. "I didn't know anything about it. I'd been blessed not to have that as a family issue."
Soon after Merrell learned of his son-in-law's improbable shot his mind naturally thought of how the money would help.
"I was elated," Merrell said, "awestruck probably, because I thought of how they could really use that. I was so excited for them."

Greg Cowan raises a question during Tuesday's presentation in Helper.
Following a winter which saw an alarming amount of suicide and tragedy in Carbon County, community leaders came together Tuesday night in Helper to hear from a Utah suicide expert and discuss what can be done to prevent future deaths while helping local residents to heal.
"The event was well attended and extremely educational," said organizer and Licensed Professional Counselor Karl Kraync. "Dr. Hudnall's presentation was well informed and directly on point. As a community our challenge is to take the information he presented and move forward."
According to Kraync, Dr. Gregory A. Hudnall's demonstration was steeped in the wisdom of a man who has dealt with suicide on a personal basis. While the curriculum he developed focuses on youth issues, Kraync explained that many of the precursors and triggers associated with suicide span a wide range of ages and are pertinent to almost anybody. His initial statistics showed just how serious the threat of suicide is all across Utah.
Hudnall reported that in comparison to other states, Utah ranks consistently within the top ten for youth suicide with 72 percent of those affected enrolled in school at the time of their death.
"Not all adolescent attempters may admit their intent," he said. "Therefore, any deliberate self-harming behaviors should be considered serious and in need of further evaluation."
The open community presentation, which was organized at the request of former Helper City Mayor Dean Armstrong, was also a success in terms of attendance by those who looking to use the agencies our community offers.
Available services on display at the Helper Auditorium included information from Four Corners Community Behavioral Health, the Business Expansion and Retention Program, Carbon County Economic Development, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, Intermountain Specialized Assessment and Treatment, New Roads, Public Health, Castleview Hospital and USU Eastern.
Hudnall, who in addition to working with the Provo School District also participates in youth suicide interventions, commented that strong community support coupled with acknowledgment of the dangers associated with depression are vital when fighting suicide.
When a person is depressed, they have a very limited viewpoint. While adolescents may speak with their friends, as few as 25 percent would tell an adult, he commented.
"It is vital to notice both small and drastic changes in a young person's mood or behavior," he stressed while going over the warning signs that occur prior to a suicide attempt. "Notice increased anxiety and agitation. Don't be afraid to ask the tough questions."
In Hudnall's native Provo, one suicide per year was recorded from 1999 to 2005. To combat this, the HOPE Task Force was created and using a new curriculum based on the U.S. Surgeon General's Eleven Steps, Call to Action to Prevent Suicide, they went to work.
The task force began providing a variety of mental health services to the Provo School District's 13,000 students. Immediate success ensued. Since 2006, the Provo district has not lost a single student to suicide. The task force's complete history is available at hope4utah.com.
While Provo has a very organized platform for those dealing with depression and suicidal thoughts, Utah's young people are still falling through the cracks even when there is evidence that they are struggling.
According to Hudnall's statistics, 47 percent of Utah youth who commit suicide had a record of suspension or expulsion from school, 41 percent had contact with the Department of Children and Families and 21 percent were referred to child protective services for abuse or neglect. Despite these red flags, 80 to 90 percent of those who ended their life were not in treatment at the time of their death.
Community organizers in Carbon County will now work to wage war against the specter of suicide, hoping to expand available services to youth in the local area.
"We pulled together for this first session, the challenge will be to remain organized and see if our own suicide task force can grow legs of its own," said Kraync. "I can tell you that nothing is harder than losing a patient you were trying to help and as a community we need to do something to fight what is happening."

Comments about Bach Cornet Mouthpiece Group I:
Recent order. Great price and fast service. I have been trying a lot of differant moutpieces. For come back players and normal to thin lips. This is a great m. p. Comparable to a 4B Sparx cornet m. p. in sound. But a lot cheaper. It plays well on cornets that take long shank mouthpieces.Also for those who do not do well on the larger m. p.'s 16.5MM to 17.00MM. If this is your situation. A 6BM bach should cover most of your playing with a 10 1/2C bach for a back up for bright and real high playing. Good luck.

The new Unlocked Motorola Milestone Droid(X) has now been released in the market at Best Buy prices which gives you the cutting edge mobile telephony technology. Best Buy prices ensure that you will be getting an additional discount on the phone that you buy and it helps you escape the rebates from the direct service providers which are more of a hassle to avail of. The Droid X is definitely one of the meanest new phones on the Android platform.
With respect to the terms of the Best Buy option, the Droid X will set up back by $199.99 and you have to enter into a two year contract with Verizon. However as a customer, one should know this that if you do want to get out of the contract, you have to pay a hefty amount of $350 which allows you to cancel the deal.
There has been an official statement which has been released by Best buy mobiles which is sure to whip up the excitement among the users. The Droid X will be released for pre sale orders by the 25th of June and they will be delivered at the stores by the 15th of July. For those interested in keeping up to date with the Best Buy phones, an eye should also be kept on phones like the
HTC Unlocked (EVO 4G) for the Sprint
iPhone 4G for AT & T which are already available.
The Best Buy Store officials hope that with the recent heightened popularity of the Android platform, the Droid X will really take off among the consumers in the pre sale period. The phone itself comes with Google's Nexus One Unlocked Android 2.1 operating system along with HD playback and recording capability. An upgrade on the operating system will also be made available soon in the next year.

FORT FAIRFIELD, Maine (AP) - John H. Reed, a Fort Fairfield native who served as Maine governor from 1959 to 1966, has died at 91.
The Giberson-Dorsey Funeral Home in Fort Fairfield confirms Reed died Wednesday in a Washington hospital.
Gov. Paul LePage issued the following statement:
"Maine has lost a great man with the passing of Governor John Reed. The First Lady and I send our thoughts and prayers to his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
In 1959, with the unexpected death of Governor Clauson, Reed, then Senate President, became Maine's Governor. He led our State well and served the people of Maine honorably.
Having the opportunity to have met him, I know he was a kind man, dedicated Navy veteran, and passionate about public service. It is a sad day for Maine as we have lost a man who contributed so much to our great State."
While governor, the Republican was instrumental in starting educational television in Maine and oversaw creation of a network of University of Maine colleges. The Bangor Daily News says Reed also pushed to combine school districts to save money.
While serving as state Senate president, Reed became governor in September 1959 upon the death of Clinton Clauson. The following year Reed defeated Democrat Frank Coffin to serve Clauson's term. He won Maine's first four-year term as governor in 1962.
Reed served on the National Transportation Safety Board and as U.S. ambassador to Sri Lanka.
The video in this story is from a profile of Gov. Reed from a 2003 episode of Bill Green's Maine.

7 Offseason Stars
Sorry for the lack of posts recently guys, on vacation in Greece with my family. However, I'm here now to take a look at players that really impressed during OTA's and Minicamp. Forget about Darrelle Revis, Nick Mangold etc. Those are obvious. Here are some other guys that really stood out that you should be keeping an eye on during training camp. I introduce you to a few friends, an inspiration, and a comeback kid.
WR DaMarcus Ganaway – Yeah, yeah, I know what you guys are thinking, "There goes Steiny with Ganaway again." That's fair, but I'm putting my friendship with him aside to write this article. Ganaway is the real deal. While all websites (including the Jets official website) have Ganaway listed at 6'2, 185lbs, the truth is, Ganaway, 25, hasn't weighed that since High School. In fact, he is currently at around 198-202lbs. Let me introduce you to Ganaway. In 2010, Ganaway graduated from Kentucky Wesleyan, a Division II school that has never sent a player from their program to the NFL. Sitting out of football for the 2011 season, through AWP Sports Performance, he trained with the likes of former NFL WR Torrance Smalls and Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald during the lockout in Minnesota. His brother, University of Minnesota QB MarQueis Gray, let him sleep on the floor of his dorm. However, once the lockout ended, he was left alone. He returned home to workout, getting up at 7A.M. and working out deep in to the night. He took breaks during the day to take care of his children while his girlfriend went to work. Perseverance. He worked out for the Jets during their bye week in October, and they signed him to a contract in January. They released him to make room for Hayden Smith, but resigned him right away once the rosters expanded to 90 players. Now that you know his back story, it will be very easy for you to root for him. Ganaway, who runs a 4.3, 40yd dash, has been creating a ton of buzz during OTA's and Minicamp. He is impressing coaches and fellow players alike. Santonio Holmes has taken him under his wing, spending every practice with him, teaching him what it is like to be a receiver in the NFL. He is a tall, physical, fast wide receiver. Is it a coincidence word came out recently that the Jets don't want Braylon Edwards after seeing their wide receiver's perform during Minicamp? That answer is no. The team likes what they have, and that is lead by DaMarcus Ganaway. He has all the potential in the world. He has the heart. He is going to be something special.
PK Josh Brown – Nick Folk might be in big trouble, folks. Brown, a former 7th round pick of the Seattle Seahawks back in 2003, consistently preformed better than Folk in Minicamp and OTA's. In addition to barley missing any field goals, Brown, 33, also handled the kickoff duties, while Folk was on the sideline out with a injured hamstring. Sure, it is still early. And yes, Mike Westhoff was not present to witness Brown's dominance during OTA's and Minicamp. (He was recovering from leg surgery. Assistant special teams coordinator Ben Kotwica handled Westhoff's duties in his absence. Westhoff will return to coach special team July 26, 2012, when the Jets report to Cortland for Training Camp). Thus, Josh Brown, the man who received Pro Football Writers Association's Golden Toe Award in 2006 while a member of the Seahawks, has a legitimate chance to win the job. As Rex Ryan put it, there will be "a great competition" between Brown and incumbent Nick Folk this summer.
LB Ricky Sapp – Talk about a comeback story. Sapp was one of the top college players during his time at Clemson University. However, in 2008 he suffered a torn right ACL in the first half of a game at Virginia. He had ACL surgery, but never fully recovered. Ricky came back for his senior season and although he never missed a game, played at about 65%. He risked his future in the NFL to help his team win. That should tell you all you need to know about Ricky. As he was getting ready to play in the Senior Bowl, the pain proved to be too much, and he missed the game. He spent a bunch of time rehabbing, and was finally healthy, but due to concerns regarding his knee, his stock plummeted and he was drafted in the fifth round of the 2010 draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. Ricky was ready to show the NFL what he was made of. But unfortunately, as luck would have it, Ricky suffered a knee injury during the preseason of his rookie year and was stashed on IR a few days later. He underwent successful arthroscopic knee surgery in September 2010. Sapp returned to the Eagles, but his frustration finally got the best of him when he went of the field and his knee continued to give him problems. He left the team on August 4, 2011, and was waived a day later August 5. Many people in Philadelphia claimed that Sapp quit on the team, but that was not the case at all. As he explains it, "I would never in my life just quit. I've just been dealing with this knee for a long time and I bust my behind to get it back right and it just gives me more problems." After his release Ricky worked his butt off to get his knee right. Finally, after months of hard work and training, Ricky succeeded. His knee no longer gave him problems and he was ready to roll. Sapp was signed to the New York Jets' practice squad on October 31, 2011. He was released on November 21. When he was re-signed to the practice squad on November 28, he never looked back. Sapp was promoted to the team's active roster on December 29 and the rest is history. Now completely healthy, Sapp is excited and having fun again. Like Aaron Maybin did last season, Ricky is motivated and ready to show doubters that he can truly live up to his potential. Jets defensive coordinator Mike Pettine envisions big things for Ricky this upcoming season. "He's a guy that's come out and definitely increased our team speed up front," said Pettine. Ricky was a phenomenal pass rusher in college. While in camp with the Eagles, they converted him to outside linebacker (he played defensive end in college). With the Jets, Sapp will be an outside linebacker as well. In fact, when Calvin Pace missed practice recently, who started in his place? Look no further than the comeback kid, Ricky Sapp.
DE Quinton Coples – When the Jets drafted Coples in the first round of the 2012 NFL Draft, many people were nervous that Coples would be the next Gholston. Let me tell you this straight up. He is not the next Gholston. Period. Coples has been extremely impressive during OTA's and Minicamp, blowing over offensive lineman, getting multiple "would-be sacks" (you can't touch quarterbacks) every practice. He has a relentless motor, and has great size and wingspan. He will be the starter from day one, and will likely make an impact early and often. In short, many people called this draft "boom or bust" for the Jets and Mike Tannenbaum. I'm going "boom."
CB Ellis Lankster – The Jets were interested in signing Drew Coleman after he was cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, that was before they saw Lankster compete during OTA's and Minicamp. After Lankster impressed with his speed, versatility (can play defense and special teams), and his improvement since last season, the Jets announced that Lankster was going to be their fourth CB this season. Lankster, 25, was a 7th round draft pick by the Buffalo Bills in 2009. He is an inspiration to millions, as he is currently suffering from stuttering. While, Lankster could easily have given up, he has done quite the opposite, working with young kids to help them cope with their stuttering problems. The Jets are expecting Lankster to play a big role on defense this season, so he is definitely someone to keep an eye on during training camp.
DB Royce Adams – As with Ganaway, Adams is a guy that I know well and like a lot, but will put that aside to explain why he impressed. Adams played both WR and DB during his time at Purdue University. As former Purdue Wide Receivers Coach Brian Rock put it, "Adams is one of our hardest workers … brings a physical and athletic presence." After going undrafted, Adams played eight games with the Pittsburgh Power during their inaugural Arena Football League season last year before leaving for an opportunity with the UFL. Adams, 24, sent his tape to pretty much every NFL team. When the Jets received it, they workout him out on December 26th and ended up signing him to a reserve/future contracts on January 6, 2012. Fast forward to Friday, June 15th. Manish Mehta of the Daily News said Adams was a rookie "that impressed Jets coaches this offseason … keep an eye on [him in] training camp." Adams saw time on both special teams and defense during OTA's and Minicamp, including work in sub-packages. In a defense as complicated as Rex Ryan's, it is not common for an undrafted free agent to get work with the defense during camp, which is why Adams is a prospect to watch. He has been working endlessly to get the playbook down, and obviously all the time put in and the hard work in the classroom has begun to pay off. Look for Adams to continue to impress the coaching staff during training camp in Cortland, as he fights to make the 53-man roster.
RB John Griffin – Last, but certainly not least, Griffin, 23, is a guy I've had the opportunity to get a to know, and I'm really pulling for him big time. Griffin spent three years at Northeastern, where he was a first-team All-Colonial Athletic Association selection as a junior after rushing for a conference-leading 1,009 yards in 2009. After that season the school dropped football, leading Griffin to transfer to the University of Massachusetts. After the lockout ended, Griffin was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Cincinnati Bengals. However he didn't make the team and was released. He didn't give up his dream of plying in the NFL. Griffin signed with Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League in an effort to better his game. And all his hard work payed off. Griffin worked out for the Jets in November, and ultimately signed with the team to a reserve/future contracts. After he signed, Griffin returned to Northeastern — still on scholarship — taking four classes, which left him two shy of earning a degree in sociology. He also trained with the Huskies' strength and conditioning coach and the track team in preparation for when OTA's started. Griffin has really impressed coaches and media alike this offseason. Kristian Dyer who covers the Jets for Metro New York put it best, "Griffin has good speed and feet and has shown some nice cutback ability. With the Jets looking for a change of pace back after Shonn Greene, Griffin's ability to change directions and catch balls out of the backfield has created a bit of a buzz around Florham Park." The Jets RB group is very crowded, but Griffin has a chance to stick if he keeps up his impressive work. Something to keep in mind: Mike Tannenbaum knows Griffin better than most players, as Tannenbaum attended UMass, and often saw Griffin play. In closing, Griffin is definitely a guy to watch as camp opens.

Submission Declassification Process for 400 million pages->
linzeal writes: The newly minted National Declassification Center has been tasked by President Obama with eliminating the backlog of more than 400 million pages of classified records that are more than 25 years old by the end of 2013. The National Archives has prepared a draft prioritization plan to guide its declassification activities, and has invited public input on the plan. A public forum on the subject will be held on June 23. This may be a bonanza for the community of historians and intelligence buffs who have been left without significant source material to work with; in some cases since WWII, especially in terms of any information on cryptography, image analysis and espionage.

Saybrook Alumnus Dr. Rick Gilbert's New Publication Reveals the Secret to Effective Executive Presentations05/07/2012
According to an article in CNBC's Bullish On Books, written by Saybrook Psychology Alumnus Dr. Rick Gilbert, more than two thirds of middle level managers don't know how to present information at top-level meetings. They end up "shooting themselves in the foot." In his new book, Speaking Up: Surviving Executive Presentations, Dr. Gilbert describes how presentations done well can help the presenter "become a star and the company become more productive."
Saybrook Alumnus Dr. Steven Kull Releases Results of New Public Opinion Study05/03/2012
Saybrook University Psychology Alumnus and Director of The Program for Public Consultation Dr. Steven Kull releases results of a new study in a public presentation, What Kind of Defense Budget Would the American Public Make?
Thursday, May 10, 2012 10:00-11:30 am
The Stimson Center 1111 19th Street, NW 12th Floor
In this presentation and in cooperation with other colleagues, Dr. Kull will dicuss what average Americans would do if they were informed about the level and purposes of U.S. defense spending and had a chance to weigh the arguments that experts make. They will address the following questions: would the public boost overall funding, or cut it; would they spend more on air power or sea power; and how much would they say the US should spend on nuclear arms, on major ground forces, and on special forces?
Most polls simply ask whether defense spending should be cut or not. But three organizations, the Program for Public Consultation (PPC), the Stimson Center, and the Center for Public Integrity collaborated on a more useful survey. They provided a representative sample of the American public neutral information about how funds are currently being spent, and exposed them to the various arguments made by advocates in the contemporary debate on whether defense should be cut. The respondents then said what they wished to spend in key areas.
The results of this innovative survey are now in, and Dr. Kull and his colleagues invite you to attend a presentation that will shed new light on the linkages and gaps between decisions being made in Washington and what average Americans want. The results will also make clear which arguments in favor of or opposed to current defense spending have the most resonance with members of the public. Please call 202-232-7500 for additional information.
Dr. Kull received his Ph.D. at Saybrook University in 1980. The chair of his dissertation was Dr. Stan Krippner. Dr. Kull is a political psychologist, is director of the Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA), which manages WorldPublicOpinion.org, and is a Senior Research Scholar at the Center for International and Security Studies at Maryland (CISSM), University of Maryland. He is also director of the Program for Public Consultation, which develops methods for governments to consult their publics on policy decisions. Dr. Kull has played a central role in the BBC World Service global poll, and regularly gives briefings to the US Congress, the State Department, the UN, and the European Commission. He appears frequently in the international media and is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. He recently completed a four-year study of the Muslim public, summarized in his newest book Feeling Betrayed: The Roots of Muslim Anger at America (Brookings).
* The Program for Public Consultation is a joint program of the Center for PolicyAttitudes and the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland

(Jan 16, 2013) On January 2, 2013, the Polish Cabinet approved a proposal put forward by the Minister of Finance to create a special stabilization fund based on contributions from banks with operations in Poland. The banks are protesting the proposal on the grounds that it constitutes the imposition of a "pseudo tax" the government contends the new fee will promote public confidence in the institutions. (Polish Cabinet Approves Finance Minister's Proposal to Tax Banks, GAZETA WYBORCZA ONLINE (Jan. 3, 2013),
Creation of the contribution requirement would entail amendment of the Act on the Bank Guarantee Fund, which came into force on February 17, 1995. (Id.; Consolidated Text of the Act on the Bank Guarantee Fund, Bank Guarantee Fund website (last visited Jan. 11, 2013). According to an opinion on the draft law sought by the Polish Minister of Finance and provided by the European Central Bank, the monies would be collected as a sub-fund of the Bank Guarantee Fund. In addition, the proposal would amend the Law of February 12, 2010, on the Recapitalization of Certain Financial Institutions. (Opinion of the European Central Bank of 19 November 2012 on a Stabilisation Fund for Banks (CON/2012/91), European Central Bank website.)
The press release does not indicate the form that a new fund would take. In 2011, the Minister of Finance indicated that the banks would simply pay a higher contribution to the Bank Guarantee Fund, but in August 2012, the Ministry of Finance announced a version of the reform that included the notion of the payment of another separate fee, to be imposed twice a year, in addition to the payments banks already make to the Bank Guarantee Fund. Reportedly, the government adopted this version of the reform, but with the loophole that the fee might be pegged at a lower rate than the maximum that had been posited. (Polish Cabinet Approves Finance Minister's Proposal to Tax Banks, supra.)
According to the banking industry, the idea of an additional fee was "dreamt out of thin air," given the long slump in the credit market and the fact that the country's Financial Supervision Authority has been "easing up on recommendations that since 2009 have been excessively hampering banks" and even recently recommended that it be possible for certain banks to limit paying out dividends. (
The draft amendment, after being submitted to Poland's Parliament, must be approved by the President. If approved, it will come into effect 30 days after being promulgated in the Dziennik Ustaw Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej (Journal of Laws of the Republic of Poland), the country's authoritative official gazette.
