On May 1st, 1915 — exactly 100 years ago today, Kalamazoo "went dry," closing the doors on all of the saloons, bars, clubs and other public drinking establishments throughout the county. During the April 5th election that year, Kalamazoo voters had turned out in strong support of the "local option," which would make it illegal to sell or manufacture distilled liquor, beer and wine after May 1st.
With little in the way of last-minute fanfare and without a single reported incident of public drunkenness, 65 local establishments cleared their shelves, drained their kegs, and closed their doors in order to meet the midnight, April 30 deadline. This included 39 saloons in the city of Kalamazoo, along with a handful of others in Schoolcraft and Vicksburg, plus the Kalamazoo Brewing Company, the last in Kalamazoo's long line of pre-Prohibition brewers and distillers.
But Kalamazoo wasn't the first county in the state to ban liquor sales. Anti-liquor sentiment had been "brewing" in Michigan since before the Civil War. Van Buren County led the way when it went dry in 1907, and by 1911, 39 counties had adopted local ordinances against alcohol. Michigan became the first state in the nation to go "dry" with a statewide ban on liquor sales in 1918, more than a year ahead of the nationwide federal ban on alcohol sales and consumption, the Eighteenth Amendment.
This all came to an end in December 1933 with the passage of the Twenty-first Amendment and the repeal of Prohibition, but the effects of the prohibition movement lingered for decades. Kalamazoo restaurants were prohibited from selling liquor by the glass until 1964, and the sale of liquor before noon on Sunday was still against the law until 2011.
Now, of course, Kalamazoo has a thriving batch of craft brewers and distillers, and has since earned a solid reputation among beer lovers nationwide. So celebrate... check out The Michigan Beer Film, take a tour of Kalamazoo's beer culture with West Michigan Beer Tours, or earn your degree in sustainable craft brewing from the new KVCC-WMU joint venture. How things have changed. Cheers!
April is the accumulation of school team work for Global Reading Challenges here at Kalamazoo Public Library.
In March, 4th and 5th graders who participated in the school challenges showed off their skills for reading and remembering facts from 10 specifically selected titles. After reading, studying, and determining their team strategy each team met their challenge with a battle of other teams at their school. Each school then had 1 team, the team with the most points, selected as their school's representative team that advances to the Branch Global Reading Challenge.
Oshtemo Branch Library will host our Branch Global Reading Challenge on Monday April 20, 2015 at 7 pm in the community room. Three schools will be represented:
The teams will again battle for the chance to advance to the City-Wide Challenge. There each branch library, including Central will have one team. Teams will battle one last time for the chance to become the 2015 Global Reading Challenge Champion. Last year's Challenge (2014) was won by the Crazy Cougars from Prairie Ridge Elementary. Can Oshtemo's team do it again?
As you can imagine each Battle is a bit more intense. Same 10 books but not the same questions – each battle requires the questions to be more challenging, more specific in nature – just plain harder! If you have not participated by being in a challenge, being a coaching, being the parent of a team member or a family member you should think about coming to watch this great program. You will be amazed at the skill these students have for remembering the smallest detail from the 10 books.
Join us for some fast paced competition!

The ladies of the Saturday Eves' Book Club have been meeting since 1968. They have met together for 45 years and while meeting all have agreed that one
of their goals would be to make a difference in Kalamazoo as a group. Another
goal was to write a book telling their collective stories. Their
accomplishments are numerous. They have a united goal to Read, Inspire, Lead,
Encourage, Motivate, Assist, Teach and Inform and their ultimate goal has been
to address community issues, mentor children and to take on the challenge of
making a real commitment to each other and their communities. This book addresses
their individual achievements, life challenges, backgrounds and dedications. There
are many great stories in this book that address decades of local and worldly
influences and contributions to making this one of the oldest and most
influential African American book clubs in Kalamazoo.
Growing up in Grand Rapids in the 80s and 90s, my family's "fancy" restaurant to go to was the Brann's restaurant on S. Division Ave. I would get the economizer prime rib special and a Shirley Temple to drink. Now living in the Kalamazoo area, my husband and I take our kids to the Brann's near Crossroads Mall/Celebration Cinema. With 11 locations across Michigan, Brann's is a thriving local chain. Mind your own business by Tommy Brann tells the history of Brann's restaurant, the Brann family, and shares highs and lows of running a successful restaurant/small business. Until this book came across my desk recently, I didn't know that our go-to restaurant had been opened by a 19 year old kid, just out of school at East Grand Rapids High. Available for other Fanns of Brann's to browse in our local history collection.
The subtitle of Oddball Michigan is A Guide to 450 Really Strange Places. I take issue with the contention that the 450 attractions covered are 'really strange,' although I must say the Kalamazoo-area ones would probably qualify. I immediately turned to the local section and found the sites where Elvis was supposedly seen -- years after his death. The other Kalamazoo venue is the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport, listed because it was on this facility's parking lot that comedian Tim Allen was arrested by the Michigan State Police for trying to sell 1.4 pounds of cocaine. Among the other West Michigan sites included are the musical fountain in Grand Haven, Bear Cave in Buchanan, and the WZZM-TV Weatherball in Grand Rapids. For locations that open and close, further information is given -- phone, hours, cost, website, and directions.
Though it certainly doesn't seem like it, spring - and the end of ice, snow, and freezing temperatures - is around the corner! Enjoy the warmer days and make good on your New Year's resolution to get fit by running. The Kalamazoo area is host to several races this spring: Kal-Haven Trail Run (April 5), Consumers Sunburst Run/Walk (April 26), Kalamazoo Marathon (May 4), Girls on the Run (May 22), and Kalamazoo Klassic (June 14). If you're interested in running a race, you can join a local training group through the Kalamazoo Area Runners or Gazelle Sports to keep you on track. And don't forget to check out the library's collection of resources on running!
Runner's World magazine - The most popular running periodical, available in print at KPL and as a digital magazine download through the library's Zinio portal.
The Beginning Runner's Handbook by Ian MacNeill - This is a great starter manual that provides basic information on the science and psychology of exercise, choosing shoes and clothing, technique and form, safety and injury prevention, as well as a 13 week training program with stretches and exercises.
Complete Book of Running by Runner's World - This thorough guide covers everything from nutrition to cross training, and includes a marathon training program.
The Little Red Book of Running by Scott Douglas - This small book contains 250 tips for running further, faster, safer, and more frequently.
Proceeds from the Consumers Sunburst Run are donated to the Oshtemo Friends of the Parks, which in turn helps support Oshtemo Library's Movies Under the Stars summer movie series at Oshtemo Township Park.
If you're interested in American guitar history, you'll want to explore this comprehensive new work about C.F. Martin and his contemporaries' early technical developments in guitar design and manufacture. In a relatively short period of time before 1865, C.F. Martin and other builders developed and incorporated significant refinements, most notably an X-braced top capable of withstanding the higher string tension to which a steel-stringed guitar would be subjected. While Martin may or may not have invented X-bracing, his guitars were to the first to exploit this bracing system on a large scale.
Of course, folks in Kalamazoo get pretty excited about that other well-known granddaddy of the American guitar, Orville Gibson, who famously applied violin building techniques to mandolins and guitars. Arched-top mandolins and guitars? Yep, invented right here in Kalamazoo. Kalamazoo is rightly proud of the stack and factory on Parsons Street where luminaries such as Lloyd Loar, Thaddeus McHugh, Ted McCarty, and others ran with Orville's early ideas and made industrial design and musical instrument history.
From a business history standpoint, these two icons of American guitar manufacture are very different. Orville Gibson sold his nascent business and patent to a small group of Kalamazoo industrialists in 1902. Gibson Guitar relocated its headquarters to Nashville in 1981. The Heritage Guitar Company continues to build in the Parsons Street building today. C.F. Martin & Company, still located in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, remains a family owned business more than 175 years later.
Your Kalamazoo Public Library has lots of great books on guitar history. This new work is definitely worth checking out. I like it because it focuses on little-known technical history before the American Civil War – no dreadnaughts to be found here. The full color plates of many of the very earliest C.F. Martin instruments in this large format book are truly gorgeous to behold.
Here is an outstanding book that gives photographs and one-paragraph commentaries on notable buildings in Michigan. Any book of this nature will, of course, be subjective in the selections made for inclusion, but I think Mr. Gallagher made some wise choices. The book is divided into eight sections -- buildings in which we gather, play, govern, learn, worship, work, and live, as well as facilities for art. The Kalamazoo buildings presented are the 1931 Kalamazoo City Hall, the 1852 Amariah T. Prouty house at 302 Elm Street, and the 1947-49 Frank Lloyd Wright houses in Parkwyn Village, off Winchell Avenue. The photography is by Balthasar Korab, who also took the pictures for Peter Schmitt's 1976 book on early Kalamazoo homes. Clear pictures, concise narrative, and great buildings make this a book worth seeing.
August 28th will be the 50th Anniversary of the "March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom." This past weekend, tens of thousands of people marched on Washington, in commemoration of the event.
I looked for information at KPL about the 1963 march and what was happening here in Kalamazoo during that time. I found writings on the history and significance of the March on Washington, biographies of prominent march organizers such as A. Phillip Randolph and Bayard Rustin and other civil rights workers, a video recording of Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech.
Kalamazoo Gazette, 7 October 1963
Local civil-rights events in 1963 included the picketing of the Van Avery drugstore and the October 6 Kalamazoo March for Equal Opportunities. To learn more local events the year ca. 300,000 people were marching in D.C. for jobs and freedom, visit KPL's Local History desk. We have numerous files of newspaper clippings and microfilm access to the 1963 Kalamazoo Gazette.
Are you vacationing in Michigan this Summer? Kalamazoo Public Library has many Michigan travel books. One particularly family-friendly book is: Fun with the Family: Michigan. Hundreds of Ideas for Day Trips with the Kids, by Bill Semion, c.2007. The contents are separated by geographic areas, such as West Michigan-North, West Michigan-South, and Upper Peninsula-East, Upper Peninsula-West… you get the picture…(picturesque!) It includes listings of events, adventures, parks, museums, sports, theatres, places to stay, and restaurants.
I also recommend viewing: Under the Radar Michigan, a PBS television show hosted by Tom Daldin, who has a friendly, comfortable presence and a great sense of humor. UTR Michigan is in its third season. UTR Michigan showcases a different Michigan town in each episode, featuring local places of interest, stories, great people, and mouth-watering foods at local restaurants. UTR is a helpful, convincing site for choosing a Michigan town to visit. Episode 318 highlights Grand Rapids, and, if you want to see a hilarious sight, watch the people pedaling on the Great Lakes Pub Cruiser, it's crazy! To find out the art of coffee roasting and information about the Can-Do Kitchen, watch the inspirational episode featuring Kalamazoo!

Ethnicity Data in HIV Positive Men Who Have Sex With Men
Recruitment status was Not yet recruiting

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Are there differences between the way that non-White men who have sex with men living in London with HIV describe their own ethnicity and the way in which their ethnic group is recorded in NHS clinics? We aim to describe the way in which clinics in London currently record a patient's ethnic group. Without accurate data for an individual's ethnic group we are unable to draw meaningful conclusions about their experiences of HIV care. It may be the case that patients from particular ethnic groups require specific ways of monitoring and treating their HIV but without knowing if these people are in a particular group any services directed to them may be wasted or underused.
HIV Infections
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Retrospective
|Official Title:
|Accuracy of Ethnicity Recording in MSM Patients With HIV of Non-White Ethnicity in London
- Proportion of misclassification of ethnicity for non-White MSM with HIV living in London [ Time Frame: end of study (2 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- • Prevalence of individual non-White self-identified ethnicity groups in MSM with HIV in London [ Time Frame: End of study (2 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

|Non white HIV positive men who have sex with men
Detailed Description:
HIV Doctors will be identified at each of the London HIV treatment centres and details of the project will be communicated to them via email.
These doctors will then be sent paper copies of the patient information sheets (PIS), patient questionnaires and clinician questionnaires.
Eligible patients (i.e. men having sex with men with HIV from non-white ethnic groups) will be identified by their doctors and will be asked to read the PIS and complete the questionnaire. This will be a single questionnaire and no follow up for the patient will be required. No personal information (e.g. date of birth, hospital number) will be recorded. Eligible patients will be all those coming to clinic for HIV care between 1st June and 31st of July 2011. Based on estimates from 2009 data held by the HPA, each doctor will on average be asked to recruit 30 patients over the two month period.
The questionnaire will ask questions regarding self description of ethnicity, sexuality, parents' ethnicity, country of birth and other countries of residency (if relevant). It is anticipated that to read the PIS and complete the questionnaire should take no longer than 15 minutes.
The doctor will then return the paper questionnaire (in an addressed envelope supplied) to Dr Williams. Dr Williams will then bring together and analyse the data from the questionnaires and write up her findings for publication and presentation at a national conference.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:

KYLE, Texas (KXAN) -- Imagine finding out you have leukemia from a visit to the dentist. That terrible reality is exactly what happened to a Texas State University student and his family in Kyle.
The Moreno family is a fun bunch who loves to play games, laugh and keep busy with everyday life.
But eight months ago, son Mark's simple visit to the dentist changed everything.
"I had to get a tooth pulled, they pulled it on a Friday, " said 24-year-old Mark Moreno, "I was suppose to get better over the weekend, and it just kept getting worse and worse."

This letter is regarding the Price Municipal Corporation Deptment of Utilities.
On their bill these items are listed; electric, water, sewer, garbage, tippage fees, as well as other charges.
So when I went to pay the bill I said I don't understand why but we keep getting billed for tippage fees. I was told that this is the amount that the city has to pay City Sanitation to take trash to East Carbon. We already pay for garbage so why this extra fee? Shouldn't the garbage fee include all the fees for it.
The lady at the city office said we have been paying this for two years, but it was only in the last few months that I noticed it.
I don't think that we should have to pay this.

|ASU Blanks UMES, 4-0
|Written by Mike Flynn
|Saturday, 19 February 2011 12:12
Sophomore Tyler Tewell (Charlotte, N.C./Butler) drove in two runs and four pitchers combined for Appalachian State University baseball's first opening-day shutout in 38 years, a 4-0 blanking of visiting Maryland-Eastern Shore on Friday night at McNair Field.
Nathan Hyatt (Brevard, N.C./Brevard), Jordan Jessup (Westfield, N.C./East Surry), Will Helms (Charlotte, N.C./Providence) and Taylor Miller (Raleigh, N.C./Wakefield) combined to limit UMES to just six hits and give Appalachian its first season-opening shutout win since it blanked Jacksonville State, 6-0, in 1973.
The Mountaineers collected 12 hits, including four for extra bases, but was never able to pull away due mainly to stranding 12 runners on base.
Hector Crespo (Miami, Fla./Florida Christian) led off the bottom of the first inning with a triple and Tewell followed with a flare single into left field to give ASU what would turn out to be all the scoring it needed.
Tewell also drove in the Mountaineers' second run on a fielder's choice the followed Tyler Zupcic's (Charlotte, N.C./Providence) leadoff double in the in the fourth. Appalachian tacked on single runs in the sixth and eighth innings to close out the scoring.
On a beautiful 73-degree evening, Hyatt struck out six and allowed only two hits over five innings to earn the win. All six hits surrendered by the Mountaineers' four pitchers were singles and the Hawks did not advance a runner past second base.
Offensively, Tewell, Crespo, Zack Briggs (Lexington, N.C./Central Davidson) and Doug Jones (Charlotte, N.C./South Mecklenburg) had two hits apiece with both of Briggs' hits going for doubles. Crespo reached base three times from the leadoff spot in the order and scored two of ASU's four runs.
Appalachian and UMES continue their season-opening three-game series on Saturday at 3 p.m. at McNair Field.

I think there is a great deal less risk with him over other HS players because of his work ethic and passion for the game. His drive is only matched by two players in this upper portion of the draft. It is my opinion, but I see "IT" when watching him play. I have seen "IT" a lot longer than others and I am glad other scouts and personal men see some of the things I saw last year.
Shorebirdfan wrote:In a Q&A session yesterday, BA pointed out that even with all the strong college arms, Bundy might already be the best pitcher in this draft.
If he is one the board at 4, he is the pick.
Don wrote:I completely disagree.
While Hultzen is good, Bundy can be special. I project only Cole and Bundy with the ability to be a top of the roatation arm with Trevor Bauer on the outside chance that he can improve his control and command his pitcher more efficiently.
Hultzen is a safer option than Bundy, but not by much. I fully say that Bundy is better than every JUCO pitcher and darn passes most College arms. He would start at a High A club as soon as he signs and it would not shock me one bit to see him in AA in 2012. Hultzen is not a lock to start on the MLB level in 2012, so you are talking about a 6 month difference, while Bundy would be up by age 20-21.
Neither choice is bad, but you are selling Bundy way too short.

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (Man som hatar kvinnor) (2009)
Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her beloved uncle is convinced it was murder and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed and troubled but resourceful computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link the disappearance of Harriet to a number of grotesque murders from almost forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. The Vangers are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.

It has now been revealed that a Sprint employee who leaked sales information of the Unlocked HTC (EVO 4G ) has been fired. The employee, whose name has not been released, disclosed information regarding sales of the HTC EVO 4G on the XDA-Developers forum. However, the information that was released turned out to be fake and so it is safe to assume that the employee is now regretting what he did.
While the actual number of units sold on the first two days was 66,483, Sprint had released a statement stating that sales of the HTC EVO 4G had resulted in record breaking numbers. In fact, it was claimed that the number of phones sold was so great that most stock supplies had sold out. However, a later retraction by Sprint stated that the total number of HTC EVO 4G phones sold was on par with those of the Samsung Instinct, and Palm Pre combined and not greater.
While it is anyone's guess as to why Sprint might have fired the employee, here is one guess. The number of 66,483 is well, quite unflattering and as such it might only include the sales from the actual Sprint stores and not fromother retail stores such as Radio Shack, walmart or Best Buy. In other words, there are chances that there would be a much higher sales figure, had such success also been included in the final sales total. But since the employee had already published the figures, it reflected quite poorly on Sprint and after tracking him down, Sprint must have let him go.
Sprint managed to find the employee located in Florida and sent a member of their taskforce to personally let him know that he was being let off. However, according to us, Sprint went through all this trouble mainly on account of the fact that they thought they would have sold many more products. Do you think, if Sprint managed to sell 300,000 HTC Unlocked ( EVO 4G ) mobiles they would have gone through such trouble.

Fashion Scarf Shemagh Scarf - Yellow
Description of Fashion Scarf Shemagh Scarf - Yellow
Yellow Shemagh Super Soft Scarf
For decades, keffiyeh have been issued to British soldiers, who now, almost exclusively, refer to them as "shemaghs".
Their use by some units and formations of the military and police forces of the former British Empire and subsequent Commonwealth dates back to before the Second World War.
As with other articles of clothing worn in wartime, such as the T-shirt, Fatigues and khaki pants, the keffiyeh has been seen as chic among non-Arabs in the West.
Recently these styles of scarves have been worn by punks, metal heads, hip hoppers and other members of various music scenes.

Video: Caught on camera: East Coast meteor
WASHINGTON (AP) - Social media sites were buzzing with reports of a flash of light streaking across the sky along the East Coast Friday night.
A photojournalist at WGRZ sister station WUSA9 in Washington, D.C. captured the video you see above.
USA TODAY also has video from a security camera above a car yard in Seaford, Delaware.
Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environmental Office said that the flash appeared to be "a single meteor event." He said it "looks to be a fireball that moved roughly toward the southeast, going on visual reports."
He likened it to a boulder entering the Earth's atmosphere over the northeastern U.S.
He noted that the meteor was widely seen, with more than 350 reports on the website of the American Meteor Society alone.
Derrick Pitts, chief astronomer at Philadelphia's Franklin Institute, agreed that the sightings had all the hallmarks of a "fireball."
Pitts said this one caught more eyes because it happened on a Friday evening - and because Twitter has provided a way for people to share information on sightings.

Rangers 3 EN, Islanders 0
With tonight's loss in Manhattan, the Islanders are now 2-7-2 against the Atlantic division this year. They've earned a meager 6 of a possible 22 points in those games. They're 11 points out of 8th in the conference and dare I say, another 'loser point' here, a win there and that number is mid-single digits. When you subtract out the divisional record, the Islanders are 9-10-4. That's still under .500, but that's a much better looking record. But that's how the NHL schedule is currently built with
8 games 6 games against each of your divisional opponents, the division will sort itself out. As inclusive as this divisional alignment can be for the stronger divisions as compared to the weak ones, there's still a heavy emphasis on divisional games. The Rangers are a very strong team, and the division seems to be sorting itself out.
The Islanders caught a few bad breaks and fell to a very solid team on the road. The first period plus were back and forth. Despite the shutout, I don't think the Islanders were blatantly non-competitive. They had their chances and were unable to convert. Milan Jurcina rung one off the post early in the second and the Rangers came back and converted on a similarly juicy chance on the other end of the ice a few minutes later. The Rangers would add another early on in the third and behind solid defense and Henrik Lundqvist, effectively shut the door. Or, for an alternate story, insert Nielsen's point blank chance on the power play towards the end of the second. The Islanders had their chances and by both Lundqvist's goaltending and their own doing, they couldn't convert.
On Friday the Islanders faced the Leafs, who had a human rebound machine in net and thus weren't able to shut down the Isles after jumping out to an early lead. With Lundqvist in net, it was a much different story. The Islanders are not a good team defensively, so there is very little wiggle room for them when the offense isn't finding the net and the D makes a couple mistakes.
– Micheal Haley took on Stu Bickel early in the first, obvious redemption for 'jumping' Tim Wallace last week. Haley really laid a shot on Bickel early in the fight, possibly what gave the referees reason to apply an otherwise odd instigator (two minutes for breaking his face?). It was a nice shot and Haley's message was sent loud and clear. We'll have to wait and see how Bickel wants to react to the message next time these teams meet. Here's the video:
– As far as intimidation and dirty plays go, Dan Girardi's kneeing penalty on John Tavares was a little from column A, a little from column B. Girardi's not a dirty player and I doubt he was attempting to injure Tavares. To me, it looked like once Girardi knew that he missed his check and he realized Tavares was getting by him without being touched, he wanted to do whatever he could to stop Tavares from beating him cleanly. Unfortunately for all involved, he resolved that problem with one of hockey's biggest no-nos. It was a dirty play — that was only skate to skate and could have been much worse — from a player who doesn't usually play that way.

The Rangers currently have five defensemen under the age of
28 on their roster and two more top prospects on the way, so it's very likely
New York will be looking to add some offensive firepower with its first-round
pick, No. 15 overall in the NHL Draft.
Between now and June 24th, we'll take a look at some of the
forwards that the Rangers might be thinking about taking on draft
day. Today, we look at…

Highlight Reel >
What They're Saying:
THN – "Czech
Republic hockey has had a
rough go of late when it comes to prospects, but Dmitri Jaskin is at the head
of a resurgence. The big banger of a
right winger played against men in the top Czech league this season and held
his own. Born in Russia,
Jaskin's father was a pro player in the Czech league and the son grew up there
from the age of six months. He missed
the WJC due to a knee injury, but his profile is still high for someone playing
in a league with few other prospects. 'He's strong, has good size, competes, finishes his hits and uses his
body well,' said one scout. 'And the
frame is good; you can build on it.' Skating and the quickness of his first step are two areas Jaskin needs
to improve upon, but with his size and competitive nature, he brings a lot to
the table. Plus, he's at his best in
traffic. The Calgary Hitmen own his CHL
rights and it wouldn't be a shock to see him join them next year."
The Scouting Report – "Jaskin is a tough player to get a
read on as he has a tremendous skill-set, but doesn't bring it consistently
enough. The big Czech winger had an up and down season and had a lot riding on
the Under 18's, where he was fairly average over the course of the tournament.
His season never quite took off after an early season injury, but when he's on,
he is a talented winger who can play with a bit of jam. His status as a
surefire first round pick has probably come and gone, but there's a lot to like
for any team that is picking in the late part of the first round."
Bruins 2011 Draft Watch –"Aside from the skating, this kid
has everything you want in a power forward. He found the back of the net three
times in the tourney and can really rip it, with a rapid release, heavy shot
and good accuracy. He bulls his way to the dirty areas of the ice and has a
nose for the net. We really respect his intensity and effort levels, even
though he doesn't have the smooth skating stride and agility/speed that are
ideal in a top-15 candidate. However, he protects the puck well and makes up
for his lack of foot speed with excellent anticipation and a passion for the
game. First rounder? Yes. All that remains is to discover which team is
confident enough that they can fix some of the flaws in his skating to help him
become the kind of player he has some real potential to be in the NHL one day."
Corey Pronman - "Dmitrij Jaskin has gone under the radar this draft season
due to playing in the Czech Republic all year and not making an international
appearance until the Under-18's due to injury, but make no mistake that this is
a prospect who should be on everybody's radars. Jaskin is a very well-rounded
prospect and one who projects well down the line. Coming in over six feet tall
and with a well filled out 200 pound frame, Jaskin's physical game projects as
above-average and may even touch plus when he's physically matured. He brings
it every shift and makes like hectic on opposing defenders with hard checks
along the wall, planting himself firmly in front of the goalie's field of
vision, and a solid puck protector who loves to stiff arm and drive the play to
the net. He has solid puck skills that are above-average for a forward his size
and while he isn't a flashy player, he is capable of doing pro-level
stick-handling and he can come off the half-wall on the power play and
distribute. Jaskin had a hard shot which he doesn't refrain from using and has
multiple weapons in his wrist shot and slap shot. His hockey sense is solid as
well, especially from a defensive perspective which is aided as well by the
fact he shows a notable work ethic in his own end and on the backcheck. His
only liability is his skating tool which grades as fringe to below-average,
although there's nothing mechanically wrong that I've noticed and it does look
fixable to an extent."
Hockey's Future – "One of the most mysterious and enigmatic
players this draft has to offer, Jaskin was the player that most scouts were
the most eager to take notes on. He started the tournament out strong but
really faded after that. At times he looked disinterested and lethargic, which
are the exact opposite adjectives that have been used to describe him for most
of the season. Jaskin has allowed many players of a similar style and mould to
leap past him and his status as a 1st round pick is now in serious jeopardy."
THN.com – "The son of a hockey player, Jaskin has impressed
scouts with his competitiveness, his strength and his willingness to finish
hits. The fact he's playing against men back home has helped those areas of his
game. 'It is certainly better for my
development to play against older players,' Jaskin said. 'I have no problem
with either the power or the technical play.' One thing the right winger would like to get better at is skating, but
he's already contributing offensively to his Slavia team with three goals and
nine points in 30 games. Playing an all-round game is important to the
youngster and it shows in his NHL influences. 'I notice shooters as much as any viewer,' Jaskin said. 'But I also
notice defensive players. I love to watch Pavel Datsyuk and how magic he is
with the puck.'"
Today – "Every time we see him he just fills the net. And he hasn't even filled
out his huge frame yet, so there's a boatload of upside still waiting to be

Thoughts: Jaskin seems like a very intriguing guy. He's already built and has shown a gritty
side in addition to his offensive ability. His hockey sense and drive are not in question, but will they be enough
to overcome suspect skating? Jaskin is a
bit of a project, and maybe less of a sure-thing than teams are looking for in
the top-20 of the draft. However, he has
the potential to far exceed his draft slot.
Though the Rangers prefer to select from the Canadian junior
leagues and the college ranks, they've shown that if the right European-league
player catches their eye they will spend a high-pick on him. Jaskin is another boom or bust guy, but the
Rangers haven't been afraid to swing for the fences.

Pete and Maura Kennedy have performed on stages all over the US and the British Isles, from Royal Albert Hall and the Beacon Theater to Falcon Ridge and the Newport Folk Festivals, but many of the most valuable lessons they have learned in over a thousand live shows have been in the intimate setting of a folk concert, where the audience is attuned to every word and note, and they have learned that the anxiety of performing can be converted into creative energy that lifts up the audience and performer in one collective gesture. This workshop will involve performing a song for a small, appreciative and compassionate team of fellow students who together with the Kennedy's will help you find ways to achieve the rapport that folk performers always seek with their audience.
In 2012, Cliff wrote original music for -- and performed it in -- the Folger Shakespeare Theatre's production of the Taming of the Shrew, which won him a Helen Hayes Award. Enjoy songs and stories from that experience
Blues music is based on traditional call-and-response styles, and when the singer takes a pause at the end of each verse, that's when the guitar's "voice" sings a response. We've all heard B.B. King's Lucille answer him! I will show you licks, known as turnarounds, that fill this crucial moment in the blues. We will look at the styles of Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Lightnin' Hopkins, Doctor John, Robert Johnson, and take a stab at a fancy Doc Watson riff. Bring an acoustic guitar and a recording device. Intermediate.
In his later years, George Harrison revealed that he was the "uking Beatle", and it is suspected that he may have written some of his great songs on the ukulele, since they lay so perfectly on the instrument. We will learn the chords to "Something" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", with chord chart handouts. George once said that everyone who is into the uke is a bit "crackers", so if that's you, bring a uke and we will have a bit of fab fun!
New videos, including Beatle uke and blues turnarounds, are posted on my YouTube

There is nothing like getting a group of people together to sing in one big voice. Sally will lead familiar songs as well as rounds, partner songs and songs from around the world. Be part of the fun! All Levels
There is a valuable dictum in the creative arts: "show, don't tell". Many of the great songs, including the Child Ballads, are cast in story form, with characters, plot and conflict. We root for the protagonists, hiss at the villains, and inwardly shout "don'd do it!" to Matty Groves, Polly Von and the innocent but gullible Pretty Polly. In this workshop, we will create an imaginary event and have the class write verses from the diverse points of view of various characters, making each person as real to the listener as Tom Dula, John Hardy or Eleanor Rigby...no need to sing or play, so all creative types are welcome. All levels

Do you ever feel that the sense of excitement and drama that propels you along when you write or learn a new song can get lost in translation when you hit the stage? Or perhaps feel sometimes that your guitar arrangements don't match up to your finely honed lyrics? Maura Kennedy is known not only as a charismatic singer, but also as a creative and dynamic rhythm guitarist. Her goal? To sound like a full band with just an acoustic guitar and a flatpick. She will share her secrets, including volume control techniques for the picking hand, and innovative full-sounding chord voicing for the left hand, and she will address backup ideas for a few specific student songs in this high-energy workshop.
This class will begin with a brief history of melodic writing and then show, through new chord and vocal arrangements, how your melodies will be much more accessible. Please bring songs you haven't finished or recorded yet.

Effective Date of 1996 Amendment
Amendment by Pub. L. 104–294effective Sept. 13, 1994, see section 604(d) ofPub. L. 104–294, set out as a note under section 13 of this title.
Effective Date
Pub. L. 97–291, § 9,Oct. 12, 1982, 96 Stat. 1258, provided that:
"(a) Except as provided in subsection (b), this Act and the amendments made by this Act [enacting this section and sections 1513 to 1515, 3579, and 3580 of this title, amending sections 1503, 1505, 1510, and 3146 of this title and Rule 32 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, and enacting provisions set out as notes under this section and sections 1501 and 3579 of this title] shall take effect on the date of the enactment of this Act [Oct. 12, 1982].
"(b)(1) The amendment made by section 2 of this Act [enacting provisions set out as a note under this section] shall apply to presentence reports ordered to be made on or after March 1, 1983.
"(2) The amendments made by section 5 of this Act [enacting sections 3579 and 3580 of this title] shall apply with respect to offenses occurring on or after January 1, 1983."
Congressional Findings and Declaration of Purposes
Pub. L. 97–291, § 2,Oct. 12, 1982, 96 Stat. 1248, provided that:
"(a) The Congress finds and declares that:
"(1) Without the cooperation of victims and witnesses, the criminal justice system would cease to function; yet with few exceptions these individuals are either ignored by the criminal justice system or simply used as tools to identify and punish offenders.
"(2) All too often the victim of a serious crime is forced to suffer physical, psychological, or financial hardship first as a result of the criminal act and then as a result of contact with a criminal justice system unresponsive to the real needs of such victim.
"(3) Although the majority of serious crimes falls under the jurisdiction of State and local law enforcement agencies, the Federal Government, and in particular the Attorney General, has an important leadership role to assume in ensuring that victims of crime, whether at the Federal, State, or local level, are given proper treatment by agencies administering the criminal justice system.
"(4) Under current law, law enforcement agencies must have cooperation from a victim of crime and yet neither the agencies nor the legal system can offer adequate protection or assistance when the victim, as a result of such cooperation, is threatened or intimidated.
"(5) While the defendant is provided with counsel who can explain both the criminal justice process and the rights of the defendant, the victim or witness has no counterpart and is usually not even notified when the defendant is released on bail, the case is dismissed, a plea to a lesser charge is accepted, or a court date is changed.
"(6) The victim and witness who cooperate with the prosecutor often find that the transportation, parking facilities, and child care services at the court are unsatisfactory and they must often share the pretrial waiting room with the defendant or his family and friends.
"(7) The victim may lose valuable property to a criminal only to lose it again for long periods of time to Federal law enforcement officials, until the trial and sometimes and [sic] appeals are over; many times that property is damaged or lost, which is particularly stressful for the elderly or poor.
"(b) The Congress declares that the purposes of this Act [see Short Title of 1982 Amendment note set out under section 1501 of this title] are—
"(1) to enhance and protect the necessary role of crime victims and witnesses in the criminal justice process;
"(2) to ensure that the Federal Government does all that is possible within limits of available resources to assist victims and witnesses of crime without infringing on the constitutional rights of the defendant; and
"(3) to provide a model for legislation for State and local governments."
Federal Guidelines for Treatment of Crime Victims and Witnesses in the Criminal Justice System
Pub. L. 97–291, § 6,Oct. 12, 1982, 96 Stat. 1256, as amended by Pub. L. 98–473, title II, § 1408(b),Oct. 12, 1984, 98 Stat. 2177, provided that:
"(a) Within two hundred and seventy days after the date of enactment of this Act [Oct. 12, 1982], the Attorney General shall develop and implement guidelines for the Department of Justice consistent with the purposes of this Act [see Short Title of 1982 Amendment note set out under section 1501 of this title]. In preparing the guidelines the Attorney General shall consider the following objectives:
"(1) Services to victims of crime.—Law enforcement personnel should ensure that victims routinely receive emergency social and medical services as soon as possible and are given information on the following—
"(A) availability of crime victim compensation (where applicable);
"(B) community-based victim treatment programs;
"(C) the role of the victim in the criminal justice process, including what they can expect from the system as well as what the system expects from them; and
"(D) stages in the criminal justice process of significance to a crime victim, and the manner in which information about such stages can be obtained.
"(2) Notification of availability of protection.—A victim or witness should routinely receive information on steps that law enforcement officers and attorneys for the Government can take to protect victims and witnesses from intimidation.
"(3) Scheduling changes.—All victims and witnesses who have been scheduled to attend criminal justice proceedings should either be notified as soon as possible of any scheduling changes which will affect their appearances or have available a system for alerting witnesses promptly by telephone or otherwise.
"(4) Prompt notification to victims of serious crimes.—Victims, witnesses, relatives of those victims and witnesses who are minors, and relatives of homicide victims should, if such persons provide the appropriate official with a current address and telephone number, receive prompt advance notification, if possible, of—
"(A) the arrest of an accused;
"(B) the initial appearance of an accused before a judicial officer;
"(C) the release of the accused pending judicial proceedings; and
"(D) proceedings in the prosecution and punishment of the accused (including entry of a plea of guilty, trial, sentencing, and, where a term of imprisonment is imposed, a hearing to determine a parole release date and the release of the accused from such imprisonment).
"(5) Consultation with victim.—The victim of a serious crime, or in the case of a minor child or a homicide, the family of the victim, should be consulted by the attorney for the Government in order to obtain the views of the victim or family about the disposition of any Federal criminal case brought as a result of such crime, including the views of the victim or family about—
"(A) dismissal;
"(B) release of the accused pending judicial proceedings;
"(C) plea negotiations; and
"(D) pretrial diversion program.
"(6) Separate waiting area.—Victims and other prosecution witnesses should be provided prior to court appearance a waiting area that is separate from all other witnesses.
"(7) Property return.—Law enforcement agencies and prosecutor should promptly return victim's property held for evidentiary purposes unless there is a compelling law enforcement reason for retaining it.
"(8) Notification to employer.—A victim or witness who so requests should be assisted by law enforcement agencies and attorneys for the Government in informing employers that the need for victim and witness cooperation in the prosecution of the case may necessitate absence of that victim or witness from work. A victim or witness who, as a direct result of a crime or of cooperation with law enforcement agencies or attorneys for the Government, is subjected to serious financial strain, should be assisted by such agencies and attorneys in explaining to creditors the reason for such serious financial strain.
"(9) Training by federal law enforcement training facilities.—Victim assistance education and training should be offered to persons taking courses at Federal law enforcement training facilities and attorneys for the Government so that victims may be promptly, properly, and completely assisted.
"(10) General victim assistance.—The guidelines should also ensure that any other important assistance to victims and witnesses, such as the adoption of transportation, parking, and translator services for victims in court be provided.
"(b) Nothing in this title shall be construed as creating a cause of action against the United States.
"(c) The Attorney General shall assure that all Federal law enforcement agencies outside of the Department of Justice adopt guidelines consistent with subsection (a) of this section."
[Amendment of section 6 ofPub. L. 97–291by Pub. L. 98–473, set out above, effective 30 days after Oct. 12, 1984, see section 1409(a) ofPub. L. 98–473, set out as an Effective Date note under section 10601 of Title 42, The Public Health and Welfare.]

NO THREATS FROM BETTMANCommish in line with Wang's refusal to go negative
Even when the NHL commissioner speaks about the Lighthouse Project, it's clear that Charles is in charge.
This was Gary Bettman with reporters yesterday at the Coliseum, when asked what happens if Charles Wang and Scott Rechler do not get a deal to transform the arena and surrounding property:
"I don't want to have that conversation. This team has a great history and tradition here, and this team needs a new arena. My hope and expectation is they're going to get it. The focus is not about threats or what could happen. It's not that I'm not denying it. I'm not confirming it. All we're thinking is: 'How does this team get its arena as quickly as possible?"
Understand how this likely worked. The NHL commissioner, along with General Colin Powell, were guests in Charles Wang's suite for the game. When it was decided Bettman would be available to the media at intermission, no question he and Wang had a discussion about how the league should play this one. It may very well have gone something like this:
"Charles, do I even hint at the possibility of you losing patience and having to consider alternatives"?
Despite the economy, I would not lose sleep over Wang and Rechler's ability to acquire financing for the project. I would not be concerned about the Islanders owner ever pulling a Bob Irsay-Baltimore move, lease or not.
The Town of Hempstead and the County of Nassau getting its act together? That, I don't think anyone could ever guarantee.
