Imagine yet another meeting to discuss the new building you've been hired to design or construct. But, instead of just sitting around looking at 2D plans and trying to "see" what it will look like, you all take out your tablet or smartphone. You fire up an application, point the camera at the plan and immediately are able to visualize a 3D building information model of what the building – or building component — looks like from your perspective.[…] Continue Reading »
General consensus in the building industry predicts high-single-digit to low-double-digit growth for nonresidential construction over the next few years, but Kristoffer Inton, a basic materials analyst with Morningstar and Daniel Rohr, a director at the same company, disagree. The authors of "U.S. Nonresidential Construction Outlook: Spending Will Disappoint as Key Sectors Do More With Less" expect only a 2% increase in the annual real growth rate for the nonresidential sector over the next decade, below their estimate of a 2.25% real increase annually in gross domestic product.[…] Continue Reading »
The economy has been slowing down, and isn't growing as quickly as expected, said Alex Carrick, chief economist at CMD, formerly Reed Construction Data, during Thursday's construction outlook webinar hosted by CMD. That statement was underscored when the stock market closed down, cutting the year's gains to a measly 0.10%.
And the wobbly economy was a concern to the other top economists in the industry, Ken Simonson of the Associated General Contractors of America and Kermit Baker of the American Institute of Architects.[…] Continue Reading »
The turning point in the building industry dawned in May 2014, when the "total employment level reached its prerecession level" and companies stopped looking in the rear-view mirror trying to outrun the Great Recession and started to think again of the future. So said Alex Carrick, North American chief economist at CMD during last week's webinar on the state of the industry.[…] Continue Reading »
Mortenson Construction has used building information modeling, or BIM, in conjunction with virtual design and construction since 1998 when it started work on the Walt Disney Concert Hall project, a multi-award winning structure with a curved steel frame in Los Angeles. The project team found that BIM/VDC was essential in the project, in large part because it helped them visualize complex sequences of work that before had only been listed in an Excel worksheet or on a Gantt chart.[…] Continue Reading »

Love these counter stools! Kristi from Tulsa, OK on 01/06/2015 – Verified Buyer
I have looked for years for just the right stools for my counter and am thrilled I finally found them! They were easy to assemble...2 took me just 45 minutes...and are very sturdy. The stiff swivel others mentioned I did not find with mine. The stools are as comfortable as they are good-looking. The only issue I had is, although the seats were wrapped in plastic, one of them still had a few grey marks on it and I had to use upholstery cleaner to remove them, otherwise I would have given this product 5 stars.

easy to assemble Sharon from MD on 09/12/2015 – Verified Buyer
This chair was very easy to assemble and looks pretty close to the picture. What you don't see is the extra metal used to fuse the swirls or the sides to each other. The wood nestles in a narrow metal base and upper "base" (is that what it would be called). The bottom base was longer than the wood and the wood hues differed. So, I called for a new seat back and it matched one of the seat backs better. Thank you! Pros: easy to assemble Cons: would love to have option to change seat colors

Love my chairs. Fits my decor perfectly Tamara from NJ on 11/19/2014 – Verified Buyer
Just did major kitchen and living space renovation and these bar stools complement the area perfectly. Easy to assemble. Sturdy, great look. Only had them for about a month, haven't used them much so jury's still out for durability. Nonetheless, happy with my purchase. Great value, looks great. No cons. Haven;t used them much to assess durability

As they appear, sturdy Janet from Manhattan Beach, CA on 09/08/2014 – Verified Buyer
Beautiful bar stools. They matched perfectly with the rest of my décor, and color in the photo is as it appears in real life. The swivel is a little tight but is loosening with use. Not too difficult to put together with the little allen wrench included. They seem sturdy and although the fabric is light in color, it seems to be standing up to use pretty well. I'm very happy with my purchase, and the value for the dollar.

by Wilton Barnhardt
St. Martin's Press
August 20, 2013
One of Slate's and Kirkus Review's Best Books of 2013 and The New York Times, National Public Radio, and Indie Bound bestseller: "Lookaway, Lookaway is a wild romp through the South, and therefore the history of our nation, written by an absolute ringmaster of fiction." --Alice Sebold, New York Times bestselling author of The Lovely Bones
Jerene Jarvis Johnston and her husband Duke are exemplars of Charlotte, North Carolina's high society, where old Southern money--and older Southern secrets--meet the new wealth of bankers, boom-era speculators, and carpetbagging social climbers. Steely and implacable, Jerene presides over her family's legacy of paintings at the Mint Museum; Duke, the one-time college golden boy and descendant of a Confederate general, whose promising political career was mysteriously short-circuited, has settled into a comfortable semi-senescence as a Civil War re-enactor. Jerene's brother Gaston is an infamously dissolute bestselling historical novelist who has never managed to begin his long-dreamed-of literary masterpiece, while their sister Dillard is a prisoner of unfortunate life decisions that have made her a near-recluse.
As the four Johnston children wander perpetually toward scandal and mishap. Annie, the smart but matrimonially reckless real estate maven; Bo, a minister at war with his congregation; Joshua, prone to a series of gay misadventures, and Jerilyn, damaged but dutiful to her expected role as debutante and eventual society bride. Jerene must prove tireless in preserving the family's legacy, Duke's fragile honor, and what's left of the dwindling family fortune. She will stop at nothing to keep what she has--but is it too much to ask for one ounce of cooperation from her heedless family?
In Lookaway, Lookaway, Wilton Barnhardt has written a headlong, hilarious narrative of a family coming apart, a society changing beyond recognition, and an unforgettable woman striving to pull it all together.

Acetaldehyde-Related Pathology: Bridging the Trans-Disciplinary Divide / Edition 8by Novartis Foundation

Acetaldehyde contributes to pathologies ranging from cancer to asthma. It affects the whole body, the architecture of the cell and molecular control mechanisms. The origins of acetaldehyde vary from bacteria in the oral cavity and intestinal tract to atmospheric acetaldehyde as an environmental pollutant. Significant amounts of acetaldehyde are also derived from cigarette smoke and alcohol, both of which are major contributors to disease globally.
Acetaldehyde has deleterious effects in the liver, brain and skeletal muscle. It has also been shown that bacteria can generate significant amounts of acetaldehyde in the gastrointestinal tract, thus contributing to carcinogenesis in this tissue. Many of the toxic effects of ethanol ingestion are mediated through acetaldehyde and there is increasing awareness that acetaldehyde is a principal disease-forming agent in tobacco-related illnesses.
Alcohol is metabolized by conversion to acetaldehyde, which in turn is converted to acetate by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). There are a number of forms of ALDH of which the mitochondrial isoform (ALDH2) is particularly important. The ALDH2 gene has a functional polymorphism: homozygous subjects have little or no ALDH2 activity compared to their wild-type counterparts. Heterozygotes generally also have low ALDH2 activity. Epidemiological studies have found increased risk of certain diseases, including cancer of the gastrointestinal tract, alcoholic liver disease and late-onset Alzheimer's disease in subjects with ALDH2 deficiency.
This book features contributions from researchers working on all aspects of acetaldehyde-related pathology. From their expert accounts and the lively discussions accompanying each chapter, we can derive a better understanding of the pathogenesis of diseases in which acetaldehyde, from whichever source, is implicated.

USB flash drives and externally powered USB hard drives work best with the Roku player. Some USB powered hard drives will not be able to draw enough power from the Roku player to function properly, especially if used with another drive on a USB hub.
The Roku Media Player also lets you access different partitions on a USB drive.
Roku Media Player instructions with Windows Media Player
The Roku Media Player channel is capable of playing media from a variety of networked media servers, including streaming from Windows media player.
Instructions and general information about getting started with media streaming in Windows can be found here. It will teach you how to setup your Windows Media Player for streaming service.
If you have not already done so, install the Roku Media Player from the Streaming Channels Store (in the Top Free category). Once your PC has been setup, you should be able to immediately find it when you enter the Roku Media Player
Can I connect multiple hard drives to my Roku player for use with the Roku Media Player channel?
Yes. You can connect more than one USB flash drive or USB hard drive to your Roku player by using a USB hub (not included).
USB flash drives and externally powered USB hard drives work best with the Roku player. Some USB powered hard drives will not be able to draw enough power from the Roku player to function properly, especially if used with another drive on a USB hub.
How can I convert my videos to play with the Roku channel?
There are a number of tools capable of converting videos into a format that is playable on the Roku player. One of the more popular ones is called Handbrake. We have found that the Handbrake preset, "Regular – High Profile", produces files that play well on Roku. For further discussion on how to create or convert files that play well on the Roku player, please visit the Roku Forums.
Does the Roku Media Player channel support music playlists?
The Roku Media Player channel supports music playlists only for .m3u and .m3u8 formats at this time. For other music file types, you can play all the songs in a folder by pressing the PLAY button on your Roku remote while the icon representing that folder is highlighted.
Does the Roku Media Player channel support movie subtitles?
Yes. The Roku Media Player channel supports embedded subtitles in .mkv files. To choose a subtitle track use the '*' button.
The Roku Media Player will automatically display the first available subtitle track found in an .SRT file. The subtitle file must be saved in the same folder matching the filename of the associated movie file.
There are no controls in the app to turn on/off subtitles or select subtitles of different languages. You must remove the .SRT file from the folder in which the movie file is located to disable the subtitles.
Can I use the Roku Media Player channel while my Roku player is not connected to my home network and the Internet?
Yes. You can use the Roku Media Player channel while your Roku player is not connected to your home network and the Internet.
I cannot hear the audio on a movie I am playing with the Roku Media Player channel. What should I do?
First, ensure the audio cable is connected properly between your Roku player and your TV or your receiver. Second, check to see that the volume on your TV or receiver is set to an audible level and that your receiver, if you are using one, is set to the correct input.
If you are playing audio that is Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 Surround Sound, make sure your Roku audio mode is set to "5.1 surround sound." From the Roku home screen, go to Settings > audio mode. If you still do not hear audio, its possible that your TV or receiver does not support Dolby Digital or DTS
How can I play a movie file in 1080p using the Roku Media Player channel?
The current Roku Media Player (RMP) channel does not need to know resolution or frame rate of video files played locally from a connected USB media or from a DLNA server. This information is handled by the firmware.
To optimize the picture quality of video playback:
- Set the Display type to the appropriate TV resolution (i.e. 720p HDTV or 1080p HDTV)
- Ensure video file is in a supported extension
Additionally, the RMP channel will only display video information on the user interface for video files through DLNA servers. Video information for local files will not be displayed.

Is a vegetarian being in a relationship with a meat-eater like a non-smoker being in a relation with a smoker; or an atheist being in relation with a theist; or a woman being in a relationship with a sexist?
As I navigate the straights and narrows of intimate connections, I am struck by the difference between being righteous and defensive and my willingness to look at my behavior from the reactions I get from others.
It's important not to "stuff down" negative emotions and to face then head on. The more we face our fears the faster they will dissipate and the quicker we can be free from them. It's not always easy to do but there is a lot of help available these days to help us through these times.
Why, then, is it so impossible for an ugly female protagonist to exist in our culture? Why must 14-year-old Hermione Granger have a Cinderella moment at the Yule Ball, when she has so many other qualities to recommend her?
One of my clients had a kind, loving, sexy boyfriend, yet she couldn't work out if they should be together. She expected a Disney moment - they would look at each other, the sun would set at that moment and then she would just know that he was 'the one'.
Holidays can put any flaws or short-comings in our relationship under the spotlight as we book time away, expectantly hoping to have fun together and rekindle some of the old spark and intimacy during our trip.
When the chips are down or things are not going exactly according to plan that's when you know you are truly living life, for I believe it is life's challenges and obstacles that make us see where we are and where and how we need to move forward.
I'm not very experienced with dating, I have been on around eleven dates and ten of those were with my now Girlfriend. I hasten to add that two of the aforementioned ten were one of my stand-up comedy gigs and the latter, a drive-in cinema, watch and learn boys, watch and learn.
We're brought up and encouraged to explore our own individualities, to forge our own opinions, to make our own judgements on the world, and yet, even in this day and age, we're often discouraged when we genuinely want to explore our own routes.
Some predict that marriage will soon be a thing of the past, and people will no longer see the need to legally bind themselves together. I find this unlikely. Most people don't marry because they fundamentally believe in the institution of marriage itself, they marry because it's the most socially acceptable way to 'keep someone'.
Planning a wedding can be a massive undertaking and making sure all the details come together on your big day can be quite challenging. Some people hire a planner, others want to take complete control, and others have a mother (in-law) who likes to call the shots.
If you buy a car, it has usually been serviced so it runs wonderfully smoothly for a while. And we so enjoy it when our car drives effortlessly. When it develops a problem, a fault, which the things we use do, we take it to the garage where an expert fixes it
You will make mistakes no doubt about that. You will say things and do things with your child in the room that you wish you hadn't. Then you will spend time worrying that you have somehow permanently damaged him/her.
With one week to go before the due date of our first child, my husband and I have been walking round in a haze of fear and exhilaration. We regularly turn and gaze at each other with slightly frightened, portentous expressions, before one of us breaks the spell by saying: "Thank God we went to Thailand."
Many of us get stuck in a rut after a break-up and find it hard to move forward. It can be hard to get over someone when they are constantly in your thoughts. Confidence and self-esteem always take a hit when it's not your choice to end the relationship and hiding away can be a good way of avoiding having to face up to this.
The reasoning behind taking a sabbatical is that it provides a breathing space to reflect on your life, what your relationship means to you, ponder the good and the bad, really consider what it is you want. But are there other ways of reaching that same level of insight and awareness?

An ill wind blew John Chapman from his home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where for more than 20 years, he and his wife operated one of the regions most popular restaurants, Chappy's, which was destroyed by Katrina. The couple and their family came to Nashville after the storm to stay with friends and regroup. They liked it here and decided to stay. They found a corner building on Church Street that suited their needs, and after an extensive renovation and build-out, opened Chappy's on Church in June 2006. The two-level, large (220 seats) dining room is decorated with New Orleans flair, with Parisian street lamps, a hand-carved bar, stained glass, heavy linens and lots of color. There are several curtained alcoves for private dining or romantic rendezvous and an attractive and comfortable lounge area. Chef Chappy specializes in New Orleans Creole cuisine, with an emphasis on fish and shellfish. An elaborate weekend brunch features the bottomless glass of champagne.

African American Teenage Girls Opt for Soccer
Heat establish itself as an asset to the city of Atlanta Team Among Leaders In Athena U15 Competitive Soccer
Atlanta, GA – August, 2015: Georgia's state capitol was dubbed "Hotlanta" for its sizzling climate and all the whimsical attractions it has to offer. Among the latter, a multimillion dollar deal announced by Falcons Owner and Chairman, Arthur Blank, will welcome the Atlanta United FC professional soccer team and a state of the art complex to match. A telltale sign that a sport once ignored by the African American populace, is now in the know. But don't tell the Southside Heat, the only competitive female African American teenage soccer team in the city, and yet another 'sizzling' asset to acknowledge.
Members of the Southwest Atlanta's Tiger Soccer Club, the Heat has risen to athletic prominence over the better part of a decade. Ranked 39th in the state of Georgia and among the leaders in Athena U15 Competitive Soccer, it marches into fall season play after registering an undefeated 2014 fall campaign.
While competitive clubs they routinely play against, and defeat, are oft times financially driven, the Heat's focus is motivated by true passion. That, along with a longing desire to improve each and every time their cleats settle into the soil to engage another squad.
Prior to the sudden popularity and interest in soccer, perhaps initiated by the 2015 US Women's World Cup victory this summer, The Heat established itself as a tough, nose to the grind bunch with an undying passion for the game.
"When you look at the soccer level in Atlanta, it's a quality level," says Coach Domenic Martelli, an Olympic Development Region 3 board member and former West Point Military Academy Assistant Coach (Women) who supervised a weeklong Developmental Camp with the Heat this summer. "It's only a matter of time before this group is competing in Athena A or B division. They were great – very receptive and they worked very, very hard."
Fred Spencer, whose daughter Simone Spencer (12) has been playing soccer since the age of four years old, decided on moving to join the Heat this season upon hearing of its stellar reputation.
"We weren't pleased with the last club she was with," said Spencer. "She's getting a lot more skills and training here. She likes the camaraderie of the girls and she's having fun."
While the Heat has gained notoriety and acclaim for its on the field performance, its chemistry is something that was established before many of the girls were presented with their first homework assignment(s). Since joining the Tiger Soccer Club as a complete group after bolting from another less competitive organization, the Heat has essentially grown up together, as sisters.
"What makes them special is their cohesiveness," said Ronald Freeman, President of the Tiger Soccer Club. "They're friends. They do well in school. They come from very [supportive families] and they love to play soccer. I think that they have been a great representation of girls' soccer in South Fulton and they've encouraged a lot of other young ladies to consider soccer."

This is the definitive illustrated edition of the international bestseller with gorgeous new photography of the celebrated netsuke collection, and sumptuous full-colour images hand-picked by Edmund de Waal from his family archive 264 Japanese wood and ivory carvings, none of them bigger than a matchbox: Edmund de Waal was entranced when he first encountered the collection in his great-uncle Iggie's Tokyo apartment. When he later inherited the 'netsuke', they unlocked a story far larger and more dramatic than he could ever have imagined. From a burgeoning empire in Odessa to fin de siecle Paris, from occupied Vienna to post-war Tokyo, Edmund de Waal traces the netsuke's journey through generations of his remarkable family against the backdrop of a tumultuous century.

Programs of Study
The University of Massachusetts Boston (UMass Boston) offers 44 master's degree programs, encompassing some 31 tracks within them, 22 doctoral degree programs with 24 tracks among them from which to choose, as well as 41 graduate certificate programs, post-master's certificate programs, and CAGS programs. These programs are offered through the UMass Boston Colleges of Liberal Arts, Management, Nursing and Health Sciences, Public and Community Service, Science and Mathematics, Education and Human Development, the McCormack Graduate School of Policy and Global Studies, and the Graduate School of Global Inclusion and Social Development. Within this selection there's surely something of interest! Please use the appropriate link above to find information about specific program offerings and contacts.
Research Facilities
In addition to a collection of well over 600,000 volumes, 85,000 electronic and 700 print journals and newspapers, 60,000 electronic books, 100 databases, and more than 5,000 academic videos, DVDs, and films, the Joseph P. Healey Library, centrally located on the campus and easily accessible from a "catwalk" connecting all buildings, maintains membership in the Boston Library Consortium, among other sharing associations.
The Boston Consortium provides access to the libraries of BC, BU, Brandeis, Brown, MIT, Northeastern, Tufts, Wellesley, and all five campuses of the University of Massachusetts system, as well as the renowned Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. UMass Boston graduate students may use materials on-site and are eligible for cards granting borrowing privileges at any of these libraries.
UMass Boston's Computing Services provides students with seven-day-a-week access to desktop labs, as well as other specialized, course-related facilities. A wide variety of information technology and data communication resources is available, with network connections in nearly every office and classroom.
The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, a public institution for education and research, stands next to the campus. The JFK Library is linked to UMass Boston by a series of educational programs, enabling students and their instructors to share its rich resources.
The Archives of the Commonwealth and Commonwealth Museum are also adjacent to the UMass Boston campus, and members of the UMass Boston community benefit greatly from this additional repository of research materials covering the past three centuries. These institutions are augmented by the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the U.S. Senate, sharing the campus and providing further research enhancements.
Financial Aid
Graduate assistantships carrying stipends, tuition waivers, partial fee waivers, and a health insurance program are available to qualified graduate students in all programs. The UMass Boston Office of Financial Aid assists graduate students through the Federal Work-Study program, Federal Perkins Loan program, and Federal Stafford Student Loan program. UMass Boston uses the FAFSA. Some tuition waivers are also available to international students who have completed at least one semester of study.
Cost of Study
Academic year 2013-2014 costs for a full-time student (twelve state-supported credits per semester for two semesters) were $14,338 for Massachusetts residents and $27,614 for residents of other states, and just over $200 more for international students. This estimate includes both mandatory fees and tuition, but does not include one-time, course-related, and optional fees, medical insurance, room and board, transportation, or books.
Living and Housing Costs
UMass Boston students are responsible for their own living arrangements. However, housing rental referral assistance and roommate matching services are available from the campus's Office of Student Housing, and UMass Boston maintains agreements with a number of local apartment complexes, some directly adjacent to the campus.
Student Group
UMass Boston boasts one of the most diverse student bodies in New England. Of the 5,115 graduate students enrolled in the fall of 2013, for example, 68% were women; reported members of minority groups represented some 25% of the graduate student population; and almost 10% of the campus's total graduate student population consisted of international students. The mean graduate student age was 34.
UMass Boston's proximity to the educational, professional, and cultural riches of Boston's urban milieu provides resources that greatly enhance its students' educational experiences. The picturesque campus location on Boston Harbor and Dorchester Bay affords a sweeping vista that includes the Boston skyline and the Harbor Islands. The campus is easily accessed by both public transportation and automobile.
The University
The University of Massachusetts Boston was founded in 1964 to provide first-rate educational opportunities for the people of the commonwealth, especially those of the greater Boston area. Since its founding, UMass Boston has demonstrated a deep commitment to serving both its students and the community at large.
Now engaged in an active long-range planning and building program, the campus currently consists of eight connected buildings on about 100 acres of waterfront property. A campus center provides enhanced student services and various student and community venues. A new Integrated Science Center is due for completion this year, and a new academic building is currently under construction.
Life at the university is as rich and varied as the city of Boston itself. Students on campus can join a variety of student-based organizations and clubs; attend plays, musical recitals, films, and lectures; use outstanding specimen collections and facilities for research; navigate the bay by rented sailboat; or conduct research on the various harbor islands and at the university's field station on Nantucket Island.
Deadlines for submitting domestic applications and application fees ($60 for US residents; $100 for all others) range from January 1 to June 1 for fall-semester (September) enrollment, and from October 1 to December 15 for spring-semester (January) enrollment. Some programs have specific earlier or later deadlines.
For many programs, submission of GRE scores is required. The MBA and other College of Management programs require GMAT scores. Other programs, especially in education, may prefer or require the Miller Analogies Test (MAT) and/or the Massachusetts Test for Educator Licensure (MTEL). Either the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) exam is required of all applicants from schools whose language of instruction is not English.
Unless otherwise specified, completed applications from international students must be received by UMass Boston by May 1 for September enrollment or October 1 for January enrollment.

His practice closed because he's being investigated for sexual assault. When I did see him, he was rude to me and told me to suck it up. His receptionist is awesome, I hope she finds work in another office.

Dr Sekhon is a great doctor. Explains things clearly and with knowledge. Very respectful and always made me at ease when embarassing issues i needed to discuss. I am very saddened he can't be my doc anymore.

I was quite pleased to find that booking an appointment and seeing the doctor was done in a matter of a few hours, meeting him for the first time was also quick arriving to the office around 11:26am and seeing the doctor a minute before my appointment time. After seeing him for the initial meet and greet, he also managed to book me an MRI for this knee pain I've been having for quite some time. Within less than a week I had the MRI completed and the results explained to me by Dr. Sekhon. I've been living with this pain for the last couple years, it had turned out to be a partial ACL tear. He immediately referred me to an orthopedic surgeon and now I'm scheduled for the surgery to repair my knee. I could not be more happy with Dr. Sekhon being my family doctor. The experience right from the beginning has been quite phenomenal, I'm quite glad I discovered him!

My name is James Michael Logan Jr., I currently perform and produce under the pseudonym Mental Extract. I have organized, promoted, hosted, and performed shows in various venues in the Gulf Shores area and along the Gulf Coast for four years. I have performed as the resident entertainer at two venues for approximately a year each, as well as traveled to Mobile, Pensacola, and Biloxi multiple times during my career. I have recently started producing, remixing, and releasing my own tracks. Samples of which can be found on my website: http://www.mentalextract.com.
I perform using two Pioneer CDJ-1000s or two Technic 1200s with a Pioneer DJM-909 mixer, and incorporate a custom built Akai APC MIDI controller running Ableton Live 9. This allows me to perform my remixes and mash-ups live while also creating new ones "on the fly" during shows. My "Open Format" style of mixing and song selection allows me to hand-pick the hottest tracks and remixes from any genre of music to focus on a high energy dance floor.

Fan designs 'Disbelieveland' t-shirt, Browns brass as Three Stooges
Dec 30, 2013 at 7:08p ET
After the Browns announced the firing of yet another head coach, Cleveland became the center of the sports world -- for all the wrong reasons, once again.
The move prompted some serious backlash, directed mainly at the Browns front office, which has earned a new nickname from fans. The trio of owner Jimmy Haslam, CEO Joe Banner and GM Michael Lombardi have been dubbed the "Three Stooges". And one fan is trying to cash in on the joke with a cleverly designed t-shirt:
The 'Three Stooges - Disbelieveland' design, which can be found at teespring.com/threestooges, is listed with the following description:
THEY ARE BACK AT IT AGAIN in CLEVELAND.... BUILDING DISBELIEF AMONG THE NATIONS BEST FANS!!! The only problem is, there are knuckleheads in the front office. Anyone else sick of their nyuk, nyuk, nyuk attitudes? We have the talent on the field, but not the brains to show for it... BRING BACK BELIEVELAND!!!
The price for a regular t-shirt starts at $17.50.

October 10, 2015 | Broken clouds, 51 °F
Southern Brooklyn residents looking to live healthier lives are getting help from tri-state area farmers. Farm-fresh fruits and vegetables are on sale every weekend in Bay Ridge and Bensonhurst, now that two popular Greenmarkets have returned for the season.
Sunday's Race to Save Lives, the charity 5K the Hatzalah EMS organization held on Sunday on Roosevelt Island, featured 30 developmentally challenged kids from the Yachad School in Midwood, off Avenue M, who ran in the race.
More than 300 people ran, raising more than $1 million for Hatzalah.
On June 7, 1994, Donna Blanchard walked to her local deli in Bay Ridge to buy some groceries. She brought her four-year-old daughter Michele with her. They never made it home.
After Donna and her little girl left the store and were crossing the street at Fort Hamilton Parkway and 92nd Street, they were struck and killed by a motorist driving a white box truck. The driver never stopped.
Following a brainstorming session that took place on Monday, plans for the Third Annual Summer Stroll on 3rd are starting to take shape, with store owners on the commercial strip and Bay Ridge community leaders talking about entertaining the crowds with a scavenger hunt, a poetry slam and plenty of live music by everyone from doo-wop groups to barbershop quartets.
Kids in Brooklyn will be able to enjoy free lessons in tennis, golf and other sports this summer, thanks to the City Parks Foundation, which is offering instructional programs in recreation areas all over the borough.
July 1 marks the start of City the foundation's 2014 Summer Sports Program for children. Throughout the summer, the foundation provides more than 13,000 kids across the city with free tennis, golf, and track and field instruction including free use of equipment in over 60 locations.
More than 40 teachers from public schools in southern Brooklyn were saluted by state Sen. Marty Golden at the lawmaker's 13th Annual Teacher of the Year awards ceremony recently held in Bay Ridge.
City Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina was on hand to congratulate the winners at the ceremony, which took place in the post theater at the U.S. Army Garrison at Fort Hamilton. District 20 School Superintendent Karina Costantino, and her counterpart, District 21 Superintendent Isabel DiMola, also attended the event.
Republican Marty Golden is running for re-election to the state senate, but Democrat James Kemmerer says he's determined to take on the incumbent and defeat him in November.
Kemmerer, owner of GEEKPAK, a company that develops, designs and maintains websites for businesses, officially launched his campaign for state senate this week, confirming rumors that have been floating around Bay Ridge political circles for months about a possible run.
Brooklyn Eagle readers of a certain age might remember when penmanship classes were standard in schools. Those were the days when students had to practice their handwriting by writing the same sentences over and over again on lined paper using No. 2 pencils. Kids literally had to cross their T's and dot their I's.
You've heard of Shakespeare in the Park. But how about Smokey Joe in Owl's Head?
Bay Ridge music impresario Jeff Samaha and his production company are bringing the Broadway musical revue "Smokey Joe's Café" to Owl's Head Park for a one-performance special event on Sunday, June 22, at 4 p.m.
And it's free!
Xaverian didn't expect Jeffrey Manzi to have a huge impact on this year's team. Xaverian wasn't even expected to have a big season. After it lost 17 seniors from last year's squad, the word "rebuilding" was thrown around.
When a pitcher, who was expected to be the No. 3 starter going into the year, becomes one of the hardest-working players on the team unexpected things start to happen.

Good Points
The book lets your imagination run wild as to the goings on in the Thai prison system, the torture, abuse, murder, living conditions, drugs, corruption, etc.
Bad Points
The book in general was too short and thus my value for money rating (7, still not bad though), more detail could have been added to make it a longer read, but hey, I'm not complaining.
General Comments
Warren Fellows, The Damage Done: Twelve Years of Hell in a Bangkok Prison - Once I picked it up I couldn't put it down. The book was an easy read and captivating. You somehow disappear into Bang Kwang Prison and its realities. Already passed it on to my mate.
PS:It definitely has ended my thoughts of being a mule!!!!!!!

Greg Gorman to Receive Lifetime Achievement Award from Professional Photographers of America
Professional Photographers of America (PPA) will confer its prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award to Greg Gorman, a prolific maker of famed celebrity images and fine art. The award will be presented during the Award & Degree Ceremony on January 22 at Imaging USA, the convention and trade show created by and for professional photographers and held at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga.
"I guess people are recognizing my mortality before I do. Maybe they know something I don't," says the California-based Gorman in the January Professional Photographer magazine interview about receiving the award.
"PPA presents this award to professional photographers who have made significant lifelong contributions to enriching the profession, and Greg fulfills that definition beautifully," says PPA President Tim Walden. "Greg's photography shows that he has the highest standards, giving us images we can all look to for inspiration and education."
From celebrity portraits and advertising campaigns to magazine layouts and fine art, Gorman has developed a discriminating and unique style over his four decades in photography. And though most often known for those celebrity portraits, his photography is timeless and not confined to has-beens, hot properties and wannabes. Each shot gives a picture of human nature in its infinite range, yet is a testament to the individual character.
Perhaps that explains why so many look to this artist as an inspiration. Teaching has become more and more important to him, and he's created weeklong workshops held at his Mendocino, Calif. home. He also travels for workshops around the world, including one at Imaging USA that is an inspirational look at his 40-plus year career. As an instructor, he's known for helping students better understand light, connect with subjects, and refill themselves with passion and love of life.
"Greg's work pushes us to do better just by looking at it," adds Walden. "I also remember sitting in one of his lectures years ago. It was not only impressive but informative and entertaining, and that doesn't always happen at the same time! Greg's the full package. "
When not shooting famous faces or teaching, Gorman travels the world for specialized photographic projects and continues to work on compilations of his imagery. A book of his photos for the award-winning l.a. Eyeworks campaign, entitled "Framed," was released in 2012, joining several other published works. And one cannot forget his contributions to charitable works by The Elton John Aids Foundation, Aids Healthcare Foundation, Focus on Aids, The Oscar De La Hoya Foundation, Vox/Out Voices of Style + Design, PETA, Angel Art, Pacific Design Center Stars of Design, and PawsLA.
Along with teaching and receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award, Gorman will have a display showcased in the International Photographic Exhibit at Imaging USA.
About Professional Photographers of America (PPA):
Professional Photographers of America (PPA) is the largest international non-profit association created by professional photographers, for professional photographers. Almost as long-lived as photography itself, PPA has roots back to 1869. It has never stopped growing and looking for new ways to assist its now 25,000 members through protection, education and resources for their continued success in the industry. See why photographers love PPA at http://www.ppa.com.
