What's police union's real motive? Editor,
The article in Wednesday's paper concerning the proposed overthrow of the Kingsville City Charter left me asking several questions, to wit, what "problem" is this expensive exercise intended to address; what is the police union's interest here; and why does this group wish to disenfranchise the voters of Kingsville in regard to the election of our mayor?
I feel that the group promoting this plan has a long way to go in answering these questions before asking the citizenry of Kingsville to even consider their proposal.
Hugh Lieck
The real meaning of 'Pride' Editor:
This letter to the editor is in response to the article titled "Pride No Mo" under The Sports Page.
What is Academy Pride? A former and current Academy High School students can easily answer this question but can Mary Springs do the same?
Definitely not. As I was reading the Kingsville Record, I came across an article that was rather disturbing. Santa Gertrudis ISD is changing the mascot for both, the Santa Gertrudis School as well as Academy High School.
Before this inconsiderate change, Academy High School's mascot was known as the Pride; meanwhile Santa Gertrudis School's mascot was known as the Pioneers.
To many, the Pride is much more than a family of lions. To current students and alumni, the word has a deep and true meaning. It means much more — to "Bleed Blue." Pride encompasses school pride, school unity and more importantly, uniqueness. What other school in the region can say that?
According to Springs, renaming the mascot from "Academy Pride" to "Academy Lions" was to unify both Santa Gertrudis School and Academy High School. This claim is simply ridiculous.
Academy High School and Santa Gertrudis Schools were already unified long before she arrived or before this suggestion was ever made.
Furthermore, Springs announced that the students of the school district demonstrated more support for "The Lions" through a survey that was taken in the Summer of 2009 so the school board trustees had no choice but to approve the mascot change.
Truth be told, this assertion is hard to believe. No evidence supporting Springs' argument has been brought to light. Moreover, she has very little to no support from alumni or faculty, seeing as how she failed to include them in this alleged survey that was taken.
On the contrary, support for "The Pride" is strong. Facebook pages that protest this change are available online for anyone to see.
To some, this mascot change has no value; however, current and former students, as well as some faculty would agree that this change is causing a great divide and stirring up a great deal of controversy amongst the Santa Gertrudis School District.
Springs has already created enough controversy for SGISD. Is this new item on Springs' agenda really necessary?

Baku. November 14. Kazakhstan Today - The USA negatively took the idea of creation of Gas OPEC created by Iran, Russia and Qatar, the USA Minister of Energy, Samuel Bodman, informed at the press conference in Baku on Thursday, the agency reports.
"Creation of such a structure is not a positive signal for consumers of natural gas in Europe and cannot positively affect them. We think that the result of such processes is that prices for gas in a number of countries differ and this tendency proceeds," S. Bodman said.
Iran stated the idea of creation of Gas OPEC. The created platform will promote development of the universal formula of the price for gas, use of spot deliveries in case of gas deficit under long-term contracts, and defining of prospects of construction of new gas mains. The countries-consumers, on the contrary, are concerned by similar initiatives. They are afraid that creation of gas cartel will lead to increase of prices on one of the most popular kinds of energy resources.

Review: Rebooted patriot games in 'Jack Ryan'
This image released by Paramount Pictures shows Chris Pine, left, and Kevin Costner in "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit," an action thriller about a covert CIA analyst who uncovers a Russian plot to crash the U.S. economy with a terrorist attack. (AP Photo/Paramount Pictures, Larry Horricks)
Having clung to the Russians as go-to villains long after the Cold War thawed, the movies find themselves current again with their favorite arch-enemy.
Cooling Russo-American relations have yielded an opening for the return of Tom Clancy's CIA analyst, just in time for the Sochi Olympics. In the Jack Ryan reboot, "Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit," Chris Pine takes over as the spy who was played by Alec Baldwin ("The Hunt for Red October"), Harrison Ford ("Patriot Games," "Clear and Present Danger") and Ben Affleck ("The Sum of All Fears").
It's a decent legacy of a dark-haired, intellectual action hero. Ryan is a navigator of murky, reasonably realistic, international espionage worlds. He has neither James Bond's preternatural suavity nor Jason Bourne's visceral butt-kicking skills, but instead anxiously finds his Login to read more

Morning Headlines | Must-Reads from the WNYC News Hub
Sniff Test Does Not Prove Public Drinking, a Judge Rules (NYT)
Joseph Goldstein writes about a Brooklyn judge who dismissed an open container violation because he said the smell of alcohol wasn't enough proof that the drink in question was indeed alcohol: "Judge Dear made it clear that he hoped his interpretation of the city's public drinking law would persuade the Police Department to reconsider its enforcement of the ordinance. In his experience, he wrote, the department singled out blacks and Hispanics when issuing public drinking summonses. 'As hard as I try, I cannot recall ever arraigning a white defendant for such a violation,' wrote Judge Dear, a former city councilman who was elected to a judgeship in 2007."
Manslaughter Charges for Landlords in Brooklyn Fire That Killed 5 (NYT)
Andy Newman and Mosi Secret report: "A guest in the building was accused of intentionally setting the fire and has been charged with murder. But the Brooklyn district attorney, Charles J. Hynes, said that the landlords, Vasilios Gerazounis, 68, and his son, Argyrios Gerazounis, 37, knew that the apartments lacked required exits and that they shared responsibility for the deaths."
Shelters Swell After Rental Aid Is Halted (WSJ)
Michael Howard Saul writes: "After funding cutbacks ended a New York City rental-assistance program earlier this year, hundreds of recipients—most of them children—have returned to the homeless shelter system, according to city statistics. The program, called Advantage, came to a halt in February. At the time, upward of 18,700 people made up the 6,482 households that were receiving rent subsidies. Since then, nearly 500 people, 300 of them children, have found their way back into shelters, officials said. Both city officials and homeless advocates expect the number to grow significantly. "
Seniority Not Challenged in Latest Version of Teacher Tenure Reform Bill (Star-Ledger)
Jessica Calefati reports: "A tenure reform bill set to be considered by legislators next week will no longer strip teachers of their seniority rights, a provision Gov. Chris Christie has said he considers a top education reform priority."
Five Officers Arrested for Rikers Attacks (WSJ)
Jennifer Maloney reports: "Five New York City correction officers have been arrested on assault and other charges after an investigation found that their written justifications for using force against Rikers Island inmates didn't match surveillance video, authorities said Thursday. The city Department of Investigation said the arrests occurred over the past three months as part of a larger probe scrutinizing the accounts officers give for violent altercations with inmates."
Police Shoot Woman to Death in East Flatbush (NYP)
Four Post reporters write: "A woman out on bail for attempted murder and kidnapping was shot dead by a cop in Brooklyn yesterday after she crashed a stolen car and threw it in reverse to escape, police sources said. Shantel Davis, 23, was blasted once in the chest as she struggled with Detective Phil Atkins, 44, in a Toyota Camry that had collided with a minivan in East Flatbush, the sources added."
Sen. Tom Duane's HIV Rent Cap Fails, and Fingers Point (Capitol Confidential)
Jimmy Vielkind reports: A bill to cap rent payments for HIV patients suffered a rare feat Thursday: it was voted down on the floor of the state Senate, 26-27. ...This has long been a personal priority for Sen. Tom Duane, D-Manhattan, who has been living with HIV since the mid-1990s. He is retiring at the end of this year, and asked Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos to bring it to a floor vote before the Senate adjourns at the end of next week."
Obama Camp Signals Opposition to Charles Barron (BuzzFeed)
BuzzFeed Staff write: "A second senior Democrat, who is close to the White House, noted that the Administration had quietly sent its own message: Jeffries, a lawyer who has drawn union opposition for his support for charter schools, was invited to a fundraiser for President Obama at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City two weeks ago, to have his photograph taken with Obama and Clinton — a valuable piece of campaign literature in a heavily African-American district."
Restaurant Industry Moves Against Gas Drilling (NYT)
Glenn Collins writes: "Restaurant industry opposition to the controversial gas-drilling method known as hydraulic fracturing is growing as increasing numbers of high-profile New York chefs, restaurateurs, food suppliers and industry executives have joined the effort to lobby Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, the State Legislature and the State Department of Environmental Conservation to ban the process. More than 90 kitchen celebrities and food-business leaders have publicly given their support to Chefs for the Marcellus, an anti-fracturing advocacy group named after the natural-gas-rich Marcellus Shale rock formation that runs under several states."
Parlors Face Age-Limit Bill Over Tanning by Teenagers (NYT)
Eric Newcomer writes: "Under a bill working its way through Albany, teenagers under 17 would be able to get suntans only the old-fashioned way: from the sun. The measure, which has already passed the State Assembly and is expected to be approved by the State Senate, prohibits anyone 16 or younger from using an indoor tanning booth."
Topless Tryst Teach Gets Second Chance (NYP)
Yoav Gonen and Jose Martinez: "Alini Brito — whose notorious topless classroom tryst with French teacher Cindy Mauro turned Brooklyn's James Madison HS into a laughingstock — sued the Department of Education last year in an attempt to score a new disciplinary hearing. In a blistering decision, Supreme Court Justice Alice Schlesinger slammed the city and eviscerated an arbitrator for dishing out an "excessive and shockingly severe" punishment to the teacher."
First Success for Bronx Prosecutor Pursuing Cold Case Killers with New DNA Technology (NYDN)
Daniel Beekman writes: "The stunning May 10 indictment of James Martin in the 1998 rape and murder of a Bronx teenager could be the first of many cold case prosecutions to grab headlines in the borough over the next few years. The Bronx District Attorney's Office is pouring time and resources into unsolved murders committed between 1995 and 2000, said Rachel Singer, the assistant district attorney in charge of the $100,000 project, which could grow even larger this fall. The objective is to prosecute homicide cases that were unsolvable 15 years ago, using new DNA technology."
Behind Those Cool Squirts in Summer, Many Plumbers (NYT)
Lisa Foderarao writes: "So many fountains. So little time.That might be the mantra of the parks department's battalion of plumbers: 43 men with the unenviable task of keeping 3,114 drinking fountains flowing in the hot summer months, just as millions of parched New Yorkers and tourists descend on playgrounds, ball fields, beaches and parks."

Superstorm Sandy Pounds East Coast
The storm is the largest the East Coast has ever seen. Right now, at least 10 deaths are confirmed. That includes five in New York, including three children, and four in New Jersey, when a tree fell on a home.
The storm that was Hurricane Sandy is packing a different kind of punch south of where it made landfall. Along the coast, the rain and storm surge brought flooding. Inland, folks are getting snow storms. The low-lying areas of Ocean City, Maryland are under four feet of water. Most of the city's fishing pier has been washed away. Residents were ordered to leave, but some decided to ride out the storm. Farther south in Washington and Baltimore, the weather service issued a hurricane-force wind warning.
The storm is now being blamed on at least three million power outages. Many of those are in lower Manhattan, where power was cut off to keep damage and danger at bay. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says backup power has been lost at New York University hospital and the city is working to move people out.
The mayor delivered a news conference Monday night and said rain was tapering off in the city and the storm surge was expected to recede by midnight. He urged residents not to call 911 unless it was an emergency, and implored them to stay off the roads so emergency vehicles could get around.
He says a few parts of lower Manhattan
still have power. He said there have been a large number of fires reported from downed power lines.
The nation's capitol will stay closed again tomorrow.
Sandy is also bringing snow and blizzard conditions to 14 counties across the Appalachian mountains.
Some areas of Tennesee are expecting up to 2 feet.
Power companies are warning of widespread power outages as trees buckle under the heavy snow, falling on power lines.
Roads are treacherous already.
"It will be very difficult," said Travis Ray with the West Virginia Department of Transportation. "There'll be guys out there in midnight and zero visibility conditions; they're not ideal conditions for people to be out in. But we're going to be out there to serve the public."
The most dramatic rescue may have come earlier today. The Coast Guard plucked more than a dozen people from the waters off North Carolina. The crew members of the tall ship, the HMS Bounty put on orange survival suits and life jackets after Sandy sunk their ship. One crew member from the HMS Bounty was found unresponsive. The Captain of the ship is still missing.

Waves, North Carolina
Waves in an unincorporated community in Dare County, North Carolina, USA. It is on Hatteras Island, part of North Carolina's Outer Banks. Waves, along with Rodanthe and Salvo, are part of the settlement of Chicamacomico.
The residents of Waves are governed by the Dare County Board of Commissioners. Waves is part of District 4, along with Avon, Buxton, Frisco, Hatteras, Rodanthe and Salvo.
Waves originally formed — along with neighboring Rodanthe and Salvo — a part of the larger settlement of Chicamacomico. Waves was known as "South Rodanthe" until 1939. In this approximate location a low sandy promontory known as Cape Kenrick is shown on colonial era maps associated with Wimble Shoals just offshore.
The Rasmus Midgett House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]
The northern border of Waves is generally considered to be the ditch that runs under Highway 12 just south of Resort Rodanthe Drive. The southern border, separating Waves and Salvo, is more ambiguous. Long-time residents indicate various "official lines" separating the two. Formerly Rodanthe, Waves and Salvo were each served by their own post office. Today a single post office, located in Salvo, serves the entire community and the former lines that separated the communities have become blurred.
The Waves area of Chicamacomico is dominated by campgrounds both large and small as well as numerous rental houses. The Bank of the Commonwealth has also recently opened a full service branch in Waves. The Bank of the Commonwealth is based in Norfolk, Virginia and was established in 1971.

Just drove my new '08 F250 crew home - how do these numbers look?
Just got an F-250 XL 6.4 Crew 4x4 long bed w/ 131,000 miles. has a fifth wheel in place. plain interior but in very nice shape, and working CD player and split fold down bench (what I wanted). Silver with the black front grill
Couldn't find any good deals up here by DC, so I went down to "Ol Mis".
Was able to negotiate 4 new tires (265/70/17) and the 120,000 mile factory recommended service.
Drove the 950 miles home last night, straight through, left at 7pm Miss time and arrived at noon today in the Virginia DC suburbs
She ran smooth. Had the edge insight plugged in the whole way.
ECT ran 188 - 192 the whole way (had it steady at 70mph with minor tweaks using the MPG Coach).
EOT ran 197 - 201 the whole way. for about 90% of the trip it was a 7 degree difference (192 / 199).
TFT ran 178 the whole way, and EGT never spiked above 800, mostly down in the 500 - 650 range.
Only 2 real issues. She has a mild radiator leak we discovered just before they pulled it off the bay (it was a trade in that had been fleet maintained at that dealer all it;s life). She was 2 gallons low when taken in for the service and started leaking just as we got ready to leave after having been re-filled. It doesn't seem to leak much more than the 1.5 to 2 gallons though, ans hold steady at that point.
Dealership was straight and fair with me. Even though the ink was already dry, they knocked a big chunk off the price and refunded to me direct since it was too late to repair or replace the radiator and I needed to leave pronto.
So I stopped and topped off the coolant every 150 - 200 miles. They even gave me 2 gallons of Ford OEM coolant (I know, it has issues, but beggars can't be choosers), and 3 gallons of water, and I used about 3 1/2 of those in filling the reservoir on the way back.
I know the '08's had radiator leak issues, but this truck has 131k miles, and had already had a radiator replacement according to Oasis.
Any of you have experience with that type issue? leak is on driver side, on the side of the main radiator panel. Can't see it directly, but leaking down onto the 2 radiator hoses coming from the reservoir to the small front panel on the front left
Seems manageable in the short term with top offs, but long term, can this be patched? can you use the radiator repair kits that put stuff in the coolant to clog the hole without damaging the truck?
Other problem is cracked front windshield they did not have time to repair, but got me some credit for it as well. Looking to find one from a salvage yard and get installed.
All in all, very happy with the truck, and glad to join your ranks.
Oh, and if anyone is looking to buy from a dealership in the southeast, I can STRONGLY recommend Gray-Daniels Ford just outside Jackson, Mississippi.
Talk to Steve Jahlbert, the internet sales guy. He's straight up honest, and when they realized the truck had a driveability issue and I was going 900 miles, they ended up giving it to me at a loss to their profit in order to be fair.
Good team, and Steve is a straight shooter.
How do these numbers look? All of the numbers are irrelevant because you forgot to post up the most important number, how much did you pay for it?
You should be able to get a replacement windshield for a decent price without having to source one from a junk yard.
P.S. Mississippi is not Southeast!
Sorry to hear the dealer decided not to fix the problems before selling you the truck.
he was willing, but it had already been in the shop all day getting the new tires and the 120k service. In order to have them work on the other issues, I'd have had to stay overnight - not an option as I had to be back to work.
The dealer was great, real stand-up crew.
And when your from Texas as I am originally, everything east of the Mississippi (which includes the state of..) is the SouthEast.
And in response to the other, my total was about $16,500 including the service and tires and credits for the other things there wasn't time to fix.
Thanks Johnny,
I was mostly curious if others felt those guage numbers indicated solid good news or anything else.
after all credits and service, I paid about $16,500 out the door.
What I mean is the vehicle should have never been offered for sale until the issues were fixed. I could understand if you buying the truck from some guy's front yard, but you bought from a dealer! Out of state! If I drove all that way and then all the way back, while feeding and bleeding my cooling system... I would not be as happy as you. And it takes very little time to replace a windshield... If you ever get the chance to watch someone do it, its a real eye opener...
I've noticed that on aftermarket windshields there is a significant loss in clarity wherever there is curvature. Go OEM or bust.
Hey congrats on the truck and price sounds close to me. Sometimes you have to bend a little to get it your way but if your happy that's all that matters. I had a oem windshield put in no probs that's the way to go
after all credits and service, I paid about $16,500 out the door.[/QUOTE]
what year 6.4? unless i missed that somewhere? sounds like a heck of a price even with a few more issues to fix. i managed to fly to texas (from MT) and drive my 08 Lariat home, in 2008 for exactly $30,800 including fuel/airfair... and i thought "I" got a good deal. mine still booked yesterday for $29,800 (with very low miles though) so you probably got a very good deal i am guess??

Jenrry Mejia got rocked on Saturday night
In last night's 9-6 loss to the Brewers, Jenrry Mejia failed to record an out in the fourth inning, ultimately allowing five runs and six hits with five walks and no strikeouts.
"I feel pretty good. But today is not my day," Mejia said after the loss. "Tomorrow's another day. I didn't have good command of my fastball. That's going to happen.''
Mejia is now 0-1 in the Major Leagues this season and has a 10.80 ERA in one start and one relief appearance.
"Once the game starts, after the first inning, you hope he settles down," Collins explained after the game. "I'm sure he was pretty excited. … I thought he had good stuff. His command was off. It's tough to pitch up here behind in the count.''
Terry Collins said before last night's game Mejia will remain the rotation for the remainder of the season.
Michael Baron, ContributorAs I said last night, Mejia appeared to be just throwing, rather than pitching. He predominantly threw fastballs and cutters although his cutter looked a lot like his fastball with significantly less velocity. In addition, of the 68 pitches he threw, Mejia got no swings and misses – in other words, he wasn't fooling the Brewers whatsoever. He fell behind pretty much everyone he faced and threw more balls than strikes, which helped contribute to 11 of the 19 batters he faced reaching base. Overall, it was a start to forget.
The good news is that Mejia is still so young, and he is still growing and evolving as a pitcher. It's unfair to write Mejia off after everything it's taken to get back to the Major Leagues and have one bad start. In a way, this was like his Major League debut, as he hasn't made a big league start in two years, and has been in the minor leagues or rehabbing from Tommy John Surgery for most of the time since. I do worry Mejia has been jerked around and misused so much over the last few years that he's been hindered by the lack of consistency in his role – only time will tell at this stage of his development. But the talent is clearly still there – he has to develop and refine is secondary pitches and develop better command going forward. It's one thing to succeed as a fireballer in the Minor Leagues – the big leagues are a completely different story. But if he can achieve that, he has the talent to become an exciting Major League pitcher in the future no matter what role he's in.

Here's what my surgeon said: you don't mind if I just carve into your face for an hour with this scalpel, right? To remove your early stage cancerous melanoma? Because the other option is to let it spread. And once it does there is no treatment. My doctors have all agreed, this was caused by sun exposure starting 20 years ago or more. I was lucky. And now I don't care if my titanium sunscreen is yucky--are you kidding me?-- I wear it. And a hat.

No, not kidding. That's why, as I said, I wear long sleeve shirts and pants. And of course a hat with attached 'cape' to cover my neck. I feel pretty safe.
http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/results/summary/2010/sunscreen-melanoma2010"In an accompanying editorial, Phyllis Gimotty, Ph.D., and Karen Glanz, Ph.D., of the Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine wrote: "To our knowledge, the trial's findings are the first to provide strong evidence for a reduction in the incidence of invasive melanoma after regular application of broad-spectrum sunscreen in adults…. It is unlikely that another trial of comparable scope and rigor will be conducted in the foreseeable future."Furthermore, they wrote, although "the question of its efficacy with respect to melanoma prevention should no longer deter scientists or clinicians from recommending sunscreen use," effective skin cancer prevention should also include avoiding exposure to ultraviolet rays, using clothing to shield skin from the sun, and performing regular skin self examinations. "This study provides important evidence regarding the role of sunscreen use as part of a range of sun-protective behaviors that effectively reduce risk of melanoma," commented Margaret Tucker, M.D., of NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics."
Speaking of someone that has had to deal with skin cancer (me), what Doug mentioned is correct. Long pants, long sleeve shirt and a hat that not only covers your noggin but one that also cover the back of the neck. I still will apply "some" sunscreen on areas that might get more sun. Prevenive care is very important. Please don't mess around with this....it is dangerous
I've worn shirt/pants/wide-brimmed hat for the last 15 years or so while hiking (but usually no sunscreen on my face when wearing hats). Last year I had a skin cancer removed from alongside my nose. It left a deep hole a bit bigger than a pencil eraser next to my nose, which the surgeon covered up as best she could with a larger triangular flap that she cut from below that hole. So now I have a triangular scar next to my nose, about 3/4" long. If this sounds like your idea of fun, by all means go without sunscreen.Needless to say, I've added sunscreen to my daily routine whether or not I am wearing a hat (though I feel like I'm closing the barn door after the horses have gotten out). Hats do not keep all the sun off your face when it isn't high noon.
Consumer Reports says (and I concur from experience) that Neutrogena sunscreen is teh most effective UVA/UVB sunscreen available. Their sunscreen, in SPFs to 70, has nanoparticles of screening agents and remains longer on your skin.BUT, like all other cream sunscreens, you need to "slather it on" for it to be most effective.
Neutrogena SPF's have gone up to around 100 or so. Their use of oxybenzone is what the EWG doesn't like so they don't get a good rating from them. I've been using Neutrogena for several years and like it okay. The Badger sunblock looks interesting.

I've been happy with kinesys sunblock.
I always thought that if I didn't get burned I was fine. Apparently cancer-causing sun rays don't necessarily burn your skin. The water-proof sunscreen that I was just barely using didn't block the full spectrum of rays. Now I know. For the stuff to work, you have to use titanium/zinc based sunscreen and really slather it on, as others have said. And re-apply. I used to think that this was a bother. Cancer, death, scar tissue is a bother. Applying sunscreen is a breeze.
Edited by book on 05/30/2011 10:26:27 MDT.
Do some research...Since sunscreen use became widespread about 20-25 yrs ago, skin cancer in the developed countries where sunscreen is used frequently has increased exponentially.Skin cancer incidence in lesser developed countries that dont have high sunscreen use has stayed flat, no increase.What is not known is why. It is possible that sunscreen itself contributes to skin cancer. The chemical compounds used create free-radicals when they absorb uv radiation, which may damage cells and start cancer.Or, possibly because of sunscreen, people spend time in the sun they shouldnt. They have short-circuited their bodys early warning system (sunburn) which tells them to get out of the sun.In any case, overall sunscreen really doesnt do anything to lessen skin cancer. There is NO basis in the data for that belief.Wear long sleeves, long pants, good hat, etc and limit sun exposure.
I'm surprised no one mentioned an umbrella.
A third possibility is that severe burns and vitamin D deficiency (which most of the western world suffers, if they know it or not) are the real cancer risks and getting a healthy amount of sun exposure every day, not enough to burn severely (if at all), providing plenty of vitamin D, is the best way to avoid skin cancer.Slathering a bunch of potentially carcinogenic chemicals on your skin and then baking them under UV rays that undoubtedly break them down into all manner of additional maybe-bad chemicals strikes me as an approach that should be HEAVILY tested by science before canonizing it as health gospel. It really hasn't been, unfortunately. Marketing, of course, couldn't care either way.We did spend millions of years exposing most of our bodies to intense sunlight on a pretty regular basis. I know someone's going to see this and think (or post) "yeah and they lived about 30 years," but if that's the case then you'd probably benefit from delving deeper into your biological heritage. Too big a can of worms to open yet again into a thread on a different topic.
Umbrella....really??? A. I have my hands on two trekking polesB. An umbrella is NOT going to cover myselfC. Read option BSorry I will not go there. I have my coverage down pat.
Long sleeve shirt, pants, and hat are probably the best combination. Bears might like the smell of you sunscreen too. :)
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him (or her) put on sunscreen. Good luck with your "sunscreen causes skin cancer" theories. I'm sure that the military-industrial-sunscreen complex has all the doctors and researchers in their pockets.
In addition to hat, long sleeves, long pants, and a hat with wide brim and neck coverage I also use Solumbra hand covers. These covers are light weight and cover the backs of my hands and wrists (protects my hands when using trekking poles)while causing no restrictions in hand use. They are not gloves and are held in place by 3 loops on their under-surface. Here is a link to the web page... http://www.sunprecautions.com/product/3130K11

All too often one thinks of proud Yeti warriors but in fact their legends speak more of Frozenra's Yeti heroines. And so every 20 years during an official ceremony, one of the great Yeti females is chosen to be the nanny. This time round Kalindra and Brok have chosen Mahimatah to fulfill this role that is so crucial to the village's survival. And if you thought Stompah was scary, then Mahimatah will show you that a Yeti protecting her young is a whole lot scarier and more ruthless than that.

Against Beauty
March 16, 2010
One of the running jokes in On Beauty, Zadie Smith's third novel, is that its main character is philosophically opposed to beauty. Howard Belsey is a professor of art history at Wellington College, and like all middle-aged professors in campus novels, he is a ludicrous figure--unfaithful to his wife, disrespected by his children, and, of course, unable to finish the book he has been talking about for years. In Howard's case, the book is meant to be a demolition of Rembrandt, whose canvases he sees as key sites for the production of the Western ideology of beauty. "What we're trying to ...

First, a history:
Alex Balk double-takes:
Is it really pronounced "jiff"? Because if so I have been embarrassing myself for years now.
Christine Erickson elaborates on the video:
As technology advanced, using GIFs became an outdated, less fashionable format. According to Patrick Davison of MemeFactory, the format began to increase in popularity again around 2007 or 2008. "People started to realize that you can use GIFs for tons of different things," says Davison. "And now that we're in 2012 there's more GIFs online, but you also have way more places to put them." Sites such as Reddit, Tumblr, WordPress and even Twitter are all, to some extent, content-curating sites that have created what Davison calls "post-modern GIFs."
"Humans really like repetition — we feel comfortable with it — and sometimes just the longer you watch something, the funnier it gets or it will actually change meaning," says TopherChris, Tumblr's community manager and editorial director.
Erickson also points to the next level of GIF art, the cinemagraph, a series of still images with subtle moving elements. For a heavy dose of GIF-ness, check out Ann Friedman's "International Slutty Women's Day: A Story in GIFs". Another great use of GIF art after the jump:

A look into the breakthrough of female artists in the tattoo industry through one of its leading pioneers, Shanghai Kate Hellenbrand. Read more
Funding Canceled
Funding for this project was canceled by the project creator on March 17, 2013.
A look into the breakthrough of female artists in the tattoo industry through one of its leading pioneers, Shanghai Kate Hellenbrand.
About this project
From Voodoo To Vogue
Theater screening/Broadcast with Internet-based webisodes along the way.
Estimated Length: 45-60min (feature)
The subject, "Shanghai Kate" Hellenbrand, is in a unique situation of having begun tattooing in 1971 when women in the field were largely unknown. Her career is the longest of any American female tattoo artist, earning her the title "America's Tattoo Godmother."
Kate worked with the master's of modern American Tattooing – from Sailor Jerry Collins of Hawaii, Ed Hardy, Jack Rudy, Michael Malone, Paul Rogers and Huck Spaulding -- and penetrated the membrane between the four-color, military payday tattoo climate of the early 1970s to present time with all of tattooing's current technological and artistic innovations. She has been called one of the "101 Most Influential Persons in Tattoo History." She is also known as "The Stencil Queen" … after resurrecting common acetate tattoo stencils from the trash piles of the past to wall-hanging artifacts and collectibles of today.
Through Kate's colorful stories and anecdotes, we will be highlighting the female role in the art of tattooing from the beginning of time. Key Messages: A brief historical overview of how the modern tattoo industry evolved globally from prehistory Ice Age through the industrial age mechanization of electric tattooing to the "Old School" days of military paydays to the current trendy embracement of modern tattooing.
With this project, we will document the internationally traveling career of "Shanghai Kate" -- documenting her interactions with the general public and fellow artists. We'll also be interviewing the industry's top artists to supplement information and knowledge about Kate and tattooing in general. This footage will be used to form a feature length documentary that captures the progress and evolution of this woman's involvement and growth in the now predominately male dominated field of tattooing. Ultimately, we want the audience to understand feel the emotional, physical, and psychological difficulties/ triumphs associated with being a female in an extreme industry.
Film Expenses
•Travel (flights, baggage, lodging)
Austin - Alaska - New York - California - New Jersey
Hard Drives - Memory Cards - Batteries - Flight Cases - Misc Crew (minimal)
•Post Production
Editing - Colorist - Sound Design
Web Development - Advertising (very minimal, but has some costs)Used mainly for promotion for festivals, web
Here are a couple of samples of what the acetate stencils look like. One side is the ORIGINAL stencil used by Sailor Jerry alongside a replica Shanghai Kate has done to represent the finished color product (so you get a piece of him and a piece of her).
His Book - Sailor Jerry Collins
If you're serious about tattooing, this is the book to have.
It's like a conversation with Sailor Jerry Collins, the most important tattoo artist of the 20th century.
Other books have been written about Sailor Jerry but this is the ONLY book that he actually wrote. It was written near the end of his life in 1971 or 1972. It is a rough draft and no other versions exist. This is completely authentic, written on his old typewriter, corrected in his own hand. It is reproduced here exactly as he wrote it, with all his corrections and typos. Not one word has been added or altered. It contains his overview of tattooing, cautious as it may be, along with many of his stories—all told in his unique and colorful "no-holds-barred" language.
Hand bound with brass screws in vinyl covers, this is a required volume for any serious tattoo art collector's library. Every book is signed by Kate Hellenbrand and numbered.
Approximately 70 pages with a never-before-seen photo of Sailor Jerry in his shop.
This book is being released from the private collection of Kate Hellenbrand who worked with Jerry for a brief time in 1972, shortly before his death. It has been kept secret for all these years and this is the first release.
Risks and challenges
I understand production, and for that reason we're not asking for 5,000 or 10,000, since it's not realistic to actually make a worthwhile film of this nature with that small of an amount. Even with the budget, I will be calling in favors to make this happen. Over spending budgets can easily happen when not managed properly. We have planned out an accountant, a grant writer, legal advisors, etc. to help this move along properly.
The only other issues I see happening could be people not wanting to be interviewed, and/or rights to use archival footage being difficult. As already stated, our team will be built to handle the full scale production of this film from day 1.
I have also seen too many Kickstarters be successful in funding and not successful in providing rewards or a finished product. If successful, the first 2 weeks after the funding comes through, we are sending out all rewards that can be sent immediately and filming to turn webisodes along the way to show our progress, as well as changes that might come along the way. Our dream is to have all of you take the journey with us.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Kacey Musgraves has released her latest single, "Follow Your Arrow," to country radio. The song is about being who you are and living your life and has already inspired a number of Kacey's fans. Co-written by Kacey, Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, the track is near and dear to Kacey's heart as it started as a gesture for a close friend.
"It started off as a poem, honestly, for this friend who was going off to Paris for four months studying and she was leaving everything she knew behind, going to a foreign country [and] didn't know the language," Kacey said. "I gave her this little arrow necklace and I wrote a little poem and it had 'follow your arrow' in it, 'kiss lots of boys,' and it kind of started there, but it turned into a bigger idea."
Kacey is currently headlining her Same Trailer Different Tour. She will join Lady Antebellum as a special guest on their Take Me Downtown Tour in November.

AFSA Education Foundation Unveils $7.5 Million Endowment Campaign
WASHINGTON, November 1, 2011….The AFSA Education Foundation (AFSAEF) announced its "Foundation for the Future" campaign to sustain its financial literacy programs. The campaign held its first public event last week with an awards ceremony during the 95th AFSA Annual Meeting at the Gaylord National Harbor Resort, National Harbor, Md.
Forty-two corporate and individual contributors were recognized as founding members with crystal awards. Under the leadership of AFSAEF Chairman Harry Goff, retired chairman & CEO, CitiFinancial, the endowment has raised more than $3.2 million since it began two years ago. The campaign's goal is to raise $7.5 million to sustain and expand the reach of the foundation's financial literacy programs. Corporations and individuals that make a contribution or pledge by April 18 will be considered founding members of the endowment campaign.
"Thanks to the generosity of many financial services companies and their leaders, the foundation's programs – like the MoneySKILL curriculum – can expand their reach and educate more individuals about personal finance concepts," Goff said.
The foundation's primary initiative, MoneySKILL® is a free personal finance course for high school and college students that has been used by more than 11,000 teachers from all 50 states and several foreign countries. Covering personal finance concepts in the areas of income, expenses, saving and investing, credit, and insurance, the course includes built-in quizzes, a pre- and post-test, and a life simulation. A middle school version was released this month.
The foundation also produces an array of educational materials to help consumers understand responsible money management and wise credit use as it relates to budgeting, vehicle financing, mortgages, credit cards, personal loans, disaster planning, credit protection and even holiday shopping.
Based in Washington, D.C., AFSAEF's (www.afsaef.org) mission is to help consumers realize the benefits of responsible money management, understand the credit process and seek help if credit problems occur. An IRS approved 501(c)3 tax-exempt, non-profit organization, it is affiliated with the American Financial Services Association (www.afsaonline.org), the national trade association for the consumer credit industry, protecting access to credit and consumer choice.

Prep golf: Fort Myers' Weber leads Green Wave to LCAC boys title
ALVA — Fort Myers boys golf coach Jesse Bryson said there's a lot to like about Landon Weber.
"Humility with competitiveness," is how Bryson describes his standout freshman who shot a 3-under-par 69 to win the medalist title at the Lee County Athletic Conference boys golf tournament on Monday. "He's a very humble player, yet he's the most competitive player that I've seen. That's what impresses me most. He just goes out and performs."
Weber, a Bonita Springs resident who won the Henke-Berg Junior Masters in his age group earlier this summer, helped Fort Myers capture the LCAC team title as he delivered a bogey-free round at River Hall Country Club in Alva. Weber's steady day — the only round under par in a field of 62 players — featured three birdies, including at Nos. 17 and 18, as he generated some breathing room from the rest of the pack.
"I played it safe the last few holes to give myself a guaranteed shot into the green," said Weber, whose wedge shots at the final two holes left him with five- to seven-foot putts for birdies.
Weber is one of three freshmen on Fort Myers' starting five. The Green Wave claimed the title with a 302 total, nine shots in front of second-place Cape Coral-Ida Baker. Estero finished third with a 318 total.
Fort Myers freshman Cole Connor and Estero junior James Van Valkenberg shot 73s to tie for second.
The victory by Weber and the team triumph bode well for the senior-less Green Wave.
"We have some good momentum going into the rest of this season and next season. We have a lot to look forward to," Bryson said.
Van Valkenberg was 1 under through 16. Thoughts of a birdie-birdie finish crept into his mind, but he encountered three-putt bogeys on his final two holes.
"I could have done a little better, but I did what I could," said Van Valkenberg, who moved to Bonita Springs last year from the village of Tannersville in the Catskills region of New York.
A year after finishing as conference runner-up in a playoff, Estero sophomore lefty Michael Adams shot an 81 as he continues to battle back from an injury.
"Michael hurt his wrist this summer and his swing hasn't been the same since, but it's getting there," Estero coach Troy Beall said. "I was happy with his 81. Hopefully, next week he'll be back in the 70s where he should be."
Weber, Connor, Van Valkenberg, Ida Baker's Anthony Myers, North Fort Myers' Zach Holton and South Fort Myers senior Alec Carlisle earned all-conference honors with the top-six scores.
Carlisle, a former wrestler at South, tied for fifth with a 75, which included six birdies and a few double bogeys.
"I just couldn't keep the doubles off the card, but my putter was on fire today," he said.
South finished seventh as a team.

THERESAA Clayton man was charged with driving while intoxicated and other traffic offenses early Thursday after state police responded to the scene of an accident on Creek Road.
According to police, Richard H. McCready III, 27, of 616 Theresa St., was driving on Creek Road when he lost control, overcorrected and flipped his vehicle. When police arrived, they said, they discovered he was intoxicated.
He was charged with DWI, failure to keep right, driving on the shoulders/slopes and imprudent speed.
Police said his blood alcohol content was 0.10 percent. Under state law, a BAC of 0.08 percent or more is considered proof of intoxication.
Mr. McCreadys passenger, Andrea M. Massa, 31, of Theresa, reportedly suffered minor cuts to her knees and was taken by ambulance to River Hospital, Alexandria Bay.
Mr. McCready was released to his mother and issued appearance tickets for Town Court.

by Julie Zied | February 20, 2012 at 2:44 PM | Khloe & Lamar
In Sunday's Season 2 premiere of "Khloe & Lamar," Khloe enlisted the help of her friend Malika to help install a sex swing in her and Lamar's bedroom. Unfortunately, as the video (above) reveals, Khlo got a different kind of action than she expected when the whole thing came loose from the ceiling and collapsed on top of her and Lamar.
Laughing it off, Khloe quickly recovered from the ordeal by setting her sights on Rob's bedroom – which she wound up transforming into a separate "sex den." But, even that plan backfired as insomniac Lamar wound up being too tired to get in the mood.

In Kleiners Adventures, you will start in the garage by your car as Dr.Kleiner in the year 2002 while Xen's portal storms come into White Mesa just as you arrive to work. You find military, scientists, and security guards all dead and you have to find your way to safety, but some soldiers still stand. You might find a gun on your way exploring the destroyed facility. The military is NOT your enemy! You will fight through aliens alongside with the military through buildings, outdoor environments, and all the way to the other side of White Mesa to regroup with a group of guards, and scientists that wernt evacuated with everyone else. That is your way out of White Mesa. (You cant just leave from the garage because the door gets busted)
What i mean by a new place to stay is the new official Kleiners Adventures forums! More info in the content section.

Fast & Easy Dinner: Spinach Salad With Bacon Vinaigrette

From Food & Wine
Spinach Salad with Bacon Vinaigrette
3 strips thickly sliced lean bacon, cut into 1/4-inch strips
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Palestinians Blame Arab Leaders for the "Nakba"
by Daniel Pipes
Translations of this item:
Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik of Palestinian Media Watch has done great service in collecting at "Arab responsibility for Palestinian refugees" six examples of "Palestinian leaders, writers and refugees [who] have spoken out in the Palestinian media, blaming the Arab leadership for the creation of the Palestinian refugee problem."
Contrary to the established Palestinian line that Israeli forces expelled hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in 1948-49, these voices agree that Arab emigration from the nascent Israel was done at the behest of orders from Arab leaders. Some snippets:
Comments: (1) After so many decades, it must be exhilarating to tell the truth. (2) These are hardly the first such statements by Palestinians and Arabs but they are the most recent. For a few of the older ones, note the five collected by Joseph Farah a year ago at "Arab leaders caused refugee problem"
