"Derek Kam was our agent. He was excellent. Extremely polite, knowledgeable, and helpful. There were several options available to choose from and the prices were very reasonable. Unfortunately, we didn't buy the car there, but it was because our daughter preferred the look and interior of a different type of car. I would recommend this dealership and Derek Kam as the agent."

It's easy to put together a great spread for July 4. Whether you get a thrill from making everything from scratch or prefer to leave the work to us, we've got you covered. Approach #1: Let us do the work! You provide the grill, we provide ready-to-grill meat, seafood, veggies and more. Now, it won't be too easy for you — you'll have the hard job of choosing from our tantalizing variety of grill-ready kabobs—plain or marinated, with or without fresh veggies. Want to expand the choices? Toss an assortment of our grill-ready specialty burgers on the grill too. Next, stop by the seafood case for some marinated salmon, responsibly farmed and ready to grill, and then head over to produce for some grill-ready veggie kabobs. Don't forget to pick up great side dishes, bakery-made buns and all kinds of condiments. Grab a watermelon for dessert and you're ready for guests! Approach #2: Make some, buy some. You provide the grill, you do all the hard work. But again, we make it easy—just check out our favorite recipes for the 4th below to get a head start on your menu plan.

Hello and welcome to LovingPho.com!
I created LovingPho.com with the my mission to help promote Vietnamese pho by helping 1) the pho customers understand and enjoy it, and 2) the aspiring restaurateurs open and run their own pho restaurants, anywhere in the world.
LovingPho.com is all about Vietnamese Pho and my passion for everything Pho - this simple yet complex, all-in-one, any-time-of-the-day fare of the Vietnamese street food.
The Beginning of LovingPho.com
Around January 2009, I saw that pho was becoming popular and well-known around the world and especially on the Internet. Vietnamese pho was becoming marketable and trendy . The buzz on the Internet about pho in the mid 2000's was strong because it was a "new discovery" by many Americans looking for new tastes, it's easy to like and enjoy, and it is delicious. People were talking about it and sharing pictures of it pretty much like now, except that pho was mostly unknown to the mainstream back then.
Soon enough, it was taking on a life of its own on the Internet. People were, and still is, taking a little too much liberty with what pho is and should be, and pho was heading the fusion food route. I'm ok with fusion food if restaurateurs call it as such. But this was and is not the case. Many concoctions were created and passed on as pho by restaurateurs just to make more money.
When I find too much inaccurate information about pho being shared (and spread) widely on the Internet, and other noodle creations being passed off as Vietnamese Pho, I thought it was time to at least contribute my input to keep things authentic, or at least to help others tell the difference. While there have always been a handful of excellent online sources, LovingPho.com was born to provide readers with reliable information about what pho is and should be, and how it should be made, prepared and enjoyed.
Helping Hands for the Aspiring Pho Restaurateurs
Once LovingPho.com got going, I began to also realize that there may be people out there who need help opening and operating pho restaurants. If I was going to help promote pho, I should be working on both sides: the customers who pay to enjoy pho and then tell others about the experience, and the pho operators who make and serve pho. You can find a whole series about how to open and operate pho restaurants and I'm also offering myself up for pho restaurant consulting as well.
What LovingPho.com Is and Isn't
This site is not a pho restaurant review site - you have Yelp and others review sites for that (although I and some of my friends sometime do review restaurants we visited.)
With LovingPho.com, I get serious in helping people understand pho, including pho's pronunciation and ways to order it. I get nitty-gritty with pho, on a much deeper level, to give it the respect it deserves. I discuss the variety of ways to enjoy pho, I answer questions on "Understanding the Pho Menu" (or what's with the many confusing pho choices on the menu?,) how to pronounce pho, some "Tips on Ordering Pho" and "How to Order Pho in Vietnamese," maybe discuss a little bit of pho history and evolution while debunking or some pho myths. There are some top pho recipes to be shared too. Most importantly, though, I get very personal with this dish called pho; and I get philosophical about pho too.
Your comments, suggestions and participation are most welcome. Articles, photos and other content contributions are gladly accepted. Sponsorships are most certainly appreciated. Please use the form on the Contact page as the first step to reach me.

With seven CDs and two DVDs that deliver over 12 hours of prime Pryor hilarity both familiar and rare spanning from 1966 to 1992, this essential collection features the best recordings from his early years as a still-developing stand-up, his '70s-early '80s glory years as a profane-but-profound comic icon, and one of his final onstage performances in 1992. The deluxe book contains rare photos, multiple essays, exclusive celebrity tributes, a discography, a filmography, and a personal note penned by Richard's widow, Jennifer Lee Pryor. This is the most comprehensive collection ever devoted to the greatest comedian who ever lived and includes nearly two hours of previously unreleased material.

Richard Pryor Live In Concert (1979)
Richard Pryor Live On The Sunset Strip (1982)
Richard Pryor... Here And Now (1983)
CDs collect the best material from Pryor's classic albums for the Laff, Stax and Warner Bros. labels, including:
Richard Pryor (1968)

That Nigger's Crazy (1974)
...Is It Something I Said? (1975)
Bicentennial Nigger (1976)

"No Pryor Restraint likely serves as the best and most complete release of Richard Pryor's work that we have seen or will ever see, with the memorable jokes, funny looks and bathing of applause coming through the speakers and television loud and clear." --Ryan Keefer, DVD Talk, 6/14/13
"This tribute set to Richard Pryor is a fan's dream. This wonderful set captures the essence of his marvelous comedic sense and timing." --Bob Bloom, Journal Courier, 6/16/13
"This truly amazing box set has opened my eyes up to a whole new world of Richard Pryor, and it's a damn funny one. Top it all off with beautiful packaging and an in-depth book, and this set is hands-down a top-notch effort on all fronts." --Mike Spring, DVDSnapshot, 6/15/13

Sam Fuld, the Hitless Cubs Club, and "Law & Order"
In the Comments last week, loyal TCR reader The Joe asked which Major Leaguer had the most at-bats without ever getting a hit. (The question stemmed from the fact that Cubs CF candidate Sam Fuld currently has the roundest of lifetime batting averages, .000, after his 0-for-6 showing last season.)
According to the Baseball-Reference.com Play Index, the answer is Mets pitcher Randy Tate, who had 41 at-bats in 1975 without once hitting his way on base. Among non-pitchers, the more interesting record, I think, Mike Potter ('76-'77) and Larry Littleton ('81) share the mark with 23 hitless at-bats for the Cards and Indians, respectively.
But what about the Cubs? I figured that an organization which has fielded so many craptacular teams with roster spots filled by so many never-developed young players and over-the-hill old players would have some worthy entries in a category like this one.
So I waded back into the B-R Play Index and changed the original search parameters a bit to find the 10 non-pitchers who accumulated the most AB's for the Cubs without getting a hit. Note: the players listed may have hit safely before or after they wore the Cub uniform; the point is, they were hitless while they were ours.
Anyway, here are the Top Ten Members of the Hitless Cubs Club:
#10. Herb Hunter, 2B-3B; 0/7 (7 plate appearances) for the 1916-'17 Cubs
In August of 1916, Hunter, then a Giant, became one of still relatively few players in Major League history to hit a home run before his 20th birthday. Two weeks later, he was traded to the Cubs. He went 0-for-4 in the remaining weeks of the 1916 season, then 0-for-3 in 1917, before leaving to fight in World War I. Hunter returned to the bigs in 1920, playing just a handful of games for the Red Sox and Cardinals. He only collected one hit--and no more home runs.
Hunter did eventually manage to leave his mark on baseball, however, becoming a pivotal figure in spreading the game to the Far East. Between the 1922 and '23 seasons, he arranged for a group of American big leaguers to play an exhibition tour in Japan, China, Korea, and the Philippines. The group included eventual Hall of Famers Casey Stengel, Herb Pennock, and Waite Hoyt. Nine years later, Hunter returned to Japan with another contingent that included Lou Gehrig, Mickey Cochrane, and Frankie Frisch. And in 1932, he arranged for three American players to travel to Japan and give baseball seminars in universities. Among the three was a player who would ultimately achieve notoriety away from the diamond--catcher turned spy, Moe Berg.
#8(t). Ed Glenn, Shortstop; 0/7 (8 PA) for the 1902 Cubs
#8(t). Bill Carney, Outfielder; 0/7 (8 PA) for the 1904 Cubs
#7. Mario Encarnacion, Outfielder; 0/7 (9 PA) for the 2002 Cubs
"Super Mario" was once a highly regarded prospect, even more highly regarded than his close friend and fellow Dominican, Miguel Tejada. Originally signed by the A's, Encarnacion spent seven years in the minors before his rookie year with the Rockies in 2001. He was placed on waivers by the Rox and picked up by the Cubs at the beginning of the '02 season, playing in just three games before he was out of the majors for good.
Three years later, Encarnacion, playing for a professional team in China, failed a steroids test and was suspended for two weeks. Late that same season, when he failed to show up for a team practice, club officials found Encarnacion dead in his hotel room. Encarnacion's death was never directly tied to the drug use (at least, not that I could find).
#6. Harry Wilke, 3B; 0/9 for the '27 Cubs
Wilke deserves a special place in the Hitless Cubs Club since he is the only player on this list whose entire hitless career was as a member of the Chicago Cubs. Congrats, Harry!
#5. Al Glossop, 2B-SS; 0/10 for the '46 Cubs
#4. Ike Van Zandt, Outfielder; 0/11 for the 1904 Cubs
Another happy tale: Van Zandt played in four games for the Cubs in '04, finishing his unremarkable Major League career the next season with the St. Louis Browns. Three years later, while he was playing for a town team in North Adams, New Hampshire, Van Zandt helped fix a game. When news of the fix got out, Van Zandt shot himself in the heart. (No more tragic deaths on this list--I promise.)
#3. Ed Mickelson, 1B; 0/12 for the '57 Cubs
Mickelson had several things to be proud of in his baseball career. He got his first Major League hit as a St. Louis Cardinal while subbing for the great Stan Musial; the hit came off Braves Hall of Famer Warren Spahn; and in 1953, Mickelson recorded the last RBI in the history of the St. Louis Browns. As a Cub, however, he was just hitless.
#2. Clem "Count" Clemens, Catcher: 0/15 for the '16 Cubs
A basketball player at Notre Dame before turning pro in baseball, Clemens eventually landed with the Chicago Whales of the Federal League--the original tenants in Weeghman Park, now Wrigley Field--before joining the Cubs in 1916. Following his baseball career, Clemens became an attorney and was active in Chicago political and legal circles, even running (unsuccessfully) for alderman.
As far as I know, he never crossed paths with Tony Rezko.
#1. George Moriarty, 3B; 0/18 for the 1903-'04 Cubs
Moriarty's brief, hit-free time as a Chicago Cub was just a blip in his colorful, 37-year career as a Major League player, manager, and umpire.
Born in Chicago and raised near the Union Stock Yards, Moriarty had an undistinguished playing career with the Cubs, New York Highlanders, Detroit Tigers and White Sox, which ended in 1916. He then worked as an American League umpire until 1940, with a brief interruption in 1927 and '28 to manage the Tigers.
As an ump, it sounds like Moriarty was a first-class bastard. He reportedly challenged members of the Cleveland Indians to a fistfight beneath the stands in the middle of a game in 1932. He is also the butt of a probably apocryphal story involving Babe Ruth, who, between pitches of an at-bat, allegedly stepped away from the plate and asked home-plate ump Moriarty how he spelled his last name. Moriarty spelled it, after which Ruth is said to have replied, "Just like I thought. Only one I."
Moriarty's final claim to fame has nothing to do with baseball, but very much to do with one of television's greatest shows. He was the grandfather of actor Michael Moriarty, who, among his many roles, played Ben Stone, the original Assistant District Attorney on "Law & Order."

According to WSCR George Off-man Orioles scouts in Tucson watching Juan Uribe.
Couldn't find a Web link, sorry ...
CHICAGO (AP) — The chairman of Chicago-based Wrigley says the gum maker hasn't decided whether to make a bid for the naming rights of Wrigley Field if they become available.
The historic ballpark got its name while owned by the Wrigley family, which sold the Cubs decades ago.
Bill Wrigley Junior is chairman of the confectioner. During a morning shareholder meeting, he said his family has "great passion" for the Cubs and baseball.
But Wrigley says the company promotes its individual brands, not the Wrigley name. And he says Wrigley would "evaluate it like we would any other opportunity" if naming rights become available.
Tribune Company is selling the team, and chairman Sam Zell says he'd consider selling the stadium's naming rights.

Re: Sam Fuld, the Hitless Cubs Club, and "Law & Order"
A little gem to y'all from Kenny Williams:
"Our fans don't care about injuries and other things that happened last season. It's all about what you do on the field. There's only one sports team in Chicago that will get a pass. I won't name them. But it ain't us."
Re: kenny Williams
While there is some truth to that, I would say it has become less since 2003. With all the money spent and the close call in 2003, I think diehard Cubs fans are really itching and getting a bit agitated. But keep in mind this team hasn't won in 100 years and they still get big attendance numbers and advertising numbers, so there is some truth to what he says.

Rocco Baldelli
On a completely unrelated note, the guy just can't seem to catch a break healthwise:
Re: Rocco Baldelli
That sucks.
How many dozens of
you were harping on HEndry to make the deal on Baldelli?
Re: How many dozens of
I was saying that we could trade Marquis for Baldelli.
There were lots of people who were saying that we should trade for Baldelli to play center last off season because he had a pretty good half year in 2006. I believe I was one of the people who pointed out that his 2006 seemed a bit fluky and he's a good bet to get injured a lot.
Regardless, gloating over someone being in a life threatening condition sure doesn't make you a class act.
Re: How many dozens of
To whit:
VA Phil, Mike C and Ryno are the Baldelli fans from what a quick web search tells me.
The tragic tale of Rocco Baldelli
Rocco Baldelli will be sidelined indefinitely due to metabolic and/or mitochondrial abnormalities that leave him feeling extremely fatigued after even brief workouts.
He says he's not retiring, but the condition could be life-threatening if the cause is not found.
Re: The tragic tale of Rocco Baldelli
The only difference between his current condition and retirement is the loss of amazing health benefits. [/cynic]
But to be serious, all the best to Rocco. I like any and all ballplayers from Rhode Island.
Re: The tragic tale of Rocco Baldelli
That is sad for Rocco. Hope he figures out what's going on and can get better.

Women bitch about their periods all the time and use it for every excuse. I'll stop believing in male superiority as soon as women give me a reason to.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
quit hanging around weak willed women, then.
if you hang out with nothing but passive, excuse making, weirdos you'll hear nothing but passive excuses from weirdos.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
If you think that women who complain about their periods are 'weirdos' then every woman is a weirdo. They all complain about it.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
the point is they dont "all" complain about it and a lot that i know sure dont use it as an excuse (unless we're going swimming).
like most superiority claims that are not based solely on direct comparison of individuals this one doesnt hold water. i sure as hell dont surround myself with these kind of women. sorry you have to. and yeah, that's weird to me that you do have so many of these women in your life. sounds like a lifestyle choice to me.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
You're kidding yourself, you know that right?
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
actually, im well aware of my surroundings and the people in them.
that's part of why i don't understand where you find huge groups of these kind of women and why you'd want to be around them.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
Yea... I agree with crunch. I don't know that I hang out with any women that act like Chad things all women act.
Re: NEWS FROM BIG PUSSY
You guys are right. Women never complain about their periods. Female comedians just don't relate to real women with their menstrual jokes. Maybe that's why they're not funny.

BLOCK: Of course any advantage is an advantage. An MLB, NBA, or NHL team getting the extra game at home in a seven game series is an advantage, I just don't think it is enough of an advantage for winning a division and/or having the best record in a conference or league over the course of an 82-game season (NBA and NHL) or 162 game series (MLB).

I support this. Hendricks has not only looked better lately but seems to start struggling after a few innings which is better than the 1st in the playoffs.
Just tweeted via Jesse Rogers: Hendricks starting Game 2. Wow. Just wow.
That was good!
Well said. On one hand, I thought the HBP was a bad baseball play -- down 4 runs, put a runner on for a red-hot Fowler. On the other hand, they needed to do something -- I hadn't thought about the warning/pitching inside point. Is Hurdle that smart? He does not strike me that way. By the way -- not clear which fan base you are referring to in your "first" 3rd point.
My unsolicited opinions on topics covered in this thread:
1. I hate the fact that after 162 games, a team could be out after 1 game. However, I think the system is pretty close to perfect right now. 2 of 3 isn't feasible unless they shorten the regular season, and it ices the division winners for way too long. This creates excitement, and rewards the division winners.
Personally, I think the game could have had a very different look had the Pirates held onto the ball and tagged Fowler out on the steal in the first. Cole was clearly frazzled, but if they took that runner off the base, it could have relaxed him a lot.
Football games are played once a week. There are 16 games a year. I'm not even remotely following at all how you can compare the two leagues and playoff systems. It is physically impossible to play a home and away series. The idea of not having any road games in baseball playoffs is certainly a head scratcher.
How is not having the first and last game at home a benefit for the division winners and team with the best record? How is it not an incentive to win the division when a WC team has to blow their top pitcher?
Call me lost.
Two 97+ win teams in a do-or-die, great bullpens, overpowering starters, plenty of pop--hard to believe that game wouldn't be tense. A 4-0 lead is not a blowout, especially in that situation and with the Cubs' young bullpen. Not only would a defensive play here or there make a difference, but you get the win there also on the home plate umps strike zone (generous strike calls for Arrieta, including a couple Ks), and on Schwarber sitting on the right pitch at the right time.

"There were days he destroyed me," Hornbeak said, "and games I beat him. You really got to work on your shot and create space (to shoot over him). Sometimes he takes me to the post and I just have to foul him."
Hornbeak said the all-time series between the two is "probably even, but it's probably in his favor. I'll give it to him."
The two talked about going to the same college, but they always said that they would do what was best for each other. Once Austin told Hornbeak he was going to Baylor, Hornbeak almost joined him, but concluded Baylor wasn't for him. The two keep in contact every day through a group text message with two other high school friends.
"(Isaiah) just sends me some crazy picture he finds on the Internet," Hornbeak said. "We all just laugh about it."
Wednesday night will just add one more game to the list in which Hornbeak and Austin will try to outdo each other, but no matter the outcome — they'll tell their brother to "get the next one."
"We always told each other no matter where we go we'll still be brothers and family," Hornbeak said. "Because it doesn't matter the distance — family is always family."

Emma Stone has opened up about her fear of dying, saying she thinks about her mortality on a daily basis.
RELATED: Emma Stone at the 2012 Tony Awards
The actress admits she has been "hyper-aware" of death since she was a young girl, when she began suffering from terrifying panic attacks.
She tells The Sunday Times' Style magazine, "I'm close to my mortality. I think about it every day. Not in a freaky way, but constantly. I feel hyper-aware that everything could end. That's always been in my mind, for whatever reason, since I was very small. ... I think I tend to worry more when things are good. I know those times will change."
RELATED: Emma Stone at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards
However, Stone says she has made progress tackling her issues with the help of a therapist.
She adds, "You know, it ebbs and flows. It's nowhere near as bad as when I was a kid. ... I feel very comfortable talking about it. ... I was in therapy for two years as a kid. As someone with anxiety, you're constantly waiting for the next (attack). It's how my mind works. The reason I went into my job is because it gives you an outlet for all these emotions. My first-grade teacher put me in my first play because I had the jazz hands in me. A year later, I had my first panic attack. I mean, I had really, really bad anxiety as a kid, and improv was kind of my savior."

Ø CHARITY RAFFLE - STATEN ISLAND INTERNATIONAL CHURCH OF PRAISE, newly-established and founded by Rev. S. Thomas and Helen Cletus will be awarded $500.00 worth of food (Margaret and Michele Yacovello did the shopping to get more bang for our bucks – they got $800 worth of food). This raffle was won my Mary Alfano and this new food pantry was Mary's choice to giving. Please note, we are re-instituting a two-draw charity raffle pull if we collect $400 in the pot starting in October.
Ø GIFT BASKET DONATED BY Cha Sanders and Lisa Cruz, was won by Lillian Escobar and the $200.00 which was raised was donated to our Adopt-a-Pantry initiative and will be added to another $300 to give our $500 bundle donation to Assumption-St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church.
Ø ANNUAL ICE CREAM SOCIAL , August 15, at the Carousel, was an overwhelming success. The Staten Island Advance article with photos was passed around the meeting room; everyone was very pleased and proud. We also collected a full truckload of school supplies at the social and served 150 ice cream "customers" and carousel riders. Thank you Fidelis Care for your collaboration.
Ø SECOND ANNUAL INTERNATIONAL DINNER GALA discussion, sign-ups and money collection. Get the skinny on the gala (on next page) but take note that you can pay through www.statenislandgivingcircle.com via Paypal or mail a check made payable to the Staten Island Giving Circle to Evelyn Kormanik, 240 Guyon Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10306. Tickets are now $65/person. Note your table partners with this submission.
Ø DUAL HALLOWEEN PARTIES – We need costumes and candy! Tina and her team will host a Halloween party at the Mariners Harbor Housing Program the first weekend in October and Evelyn has a team going to Project Hospitality House on Friday Evening, October 16. Please e-mail Tina at: email@example.com or Evelyn at: firstname.lastname@example.com to volunteer to help and/or donate (costumes and candy).
CRUCIAL DATES – R.S.V.P.s NEEDED
Thursday, September 17, 7 p.m. is our Second Annual International Dinner Gala at Grand Plaza, 23A Nelson Avenue, Staten Island. I am attaching the attendee list as of today and the food commitments as of today (Aug. 25). We have lots of verbal commitments for attendance, but it's getting late, so we absolutely need you to bring Evelyn/Mike your money or send in your checks to secure a seat. We need to give the Grand Plaza a final count so they can set up the tables. You cannot pay at the door. Remember this is the biggest fundraiser of the year for our beautiful group. The proceeds allow us to do so much extra 'giving' for children in need, seniors in need and invent and provide events for our entire community. The monies are spent for class trips, art lessons (art, music, photography, cooking). This event is the forefront of our planning currently and we are asking your cooperation in making this a success. That means R.S.V.P.ing NOW….. Also, remember, if you are unable to attend, but want to support the event, how about buying a ticket for someone else, putting in money for a raffle sheet [20 chances], or donating a ½ tray of your specialty. There are always ways to participate even if you can't physically be there.
First Weekend of October – TINA'S GROUP'S HALLOWEEN PARTY AT MARINER'S HARBOR. Looking for gently-used costumes and candy and extra hands.
Friday, October 16, 6 p.m. – EVELYN'S GROUP'S HALLOWEEN PARTY AT PROJECT HOSPITALITY. Looking for gently-used costumes and candy and extra hands.
THIRD WEDNESDAY OF EVERY MONTH - Our monthly meetings at Old Bermuda Inn, 7 p.m. (with the exception of September due to the Dinner Gala).
DECEMBER HOLIDAY BRUNCH – OLD BERMUDA INN – Donna Fischer and Ceil Scalia will be heading plans for this year's holiday get together. We'll keep you posted.
Prom Dresses – for years, as many of you know, we collected gently-used prom dresses which were distributed to young ladies looking for junior and senior prom attire. How about thinking about collecting and hosting a SENIOR PROM – that is a BALL for our senior population? Wouldn't it be nice to let the senior centers have a special occasion like this? Hey, they could start at 6 p.m., taking into account their sleep needs!
Heritage Book – when going through our member list and realizing how many of us are immigrants and first generation immigrant children, it occurred to us that we should compile these stories and accompanying recipes to offer as a fundraising tool. Our International Dinner is rich with foods of all nations and beautiful immigrant stories – some countries represented will be Sri Lanka, Haiti, Slovakia, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Korea, China, Germany, Romania, to name a few. We could interview, construct and self publish a heritage book. What do you think of this idea? If you want to participate, let us know.
Literacy for Adults - Mentoring for children and students is an on-going interest and idea but let's add putting together a team to teach literacy to adults. This is a population that needs attention and patient understanding. We have many retired teachers, educators, and readers so I think we could get a nice crew together to offer this service. What do you think?
SIGC Version of S.C.O.R.E. With a similar objective, I'd like to assemble a group of our membership to mentor college-bound seniors to give these students an idea of what exactly an architect, writer, secretary, engineer, teacher, entrepreneur, nurse…..is and what the could expect in the way of reaching those goals. Many times, kids have no idea of "what they want to be" and have little knowledge of what lies ahead. We could take the mystery out of career goals a little. These round tables would give lots of information that maybe the Guidance Counselors don't have time for and we could provide real stories, pitfalls, encouragement, suggestions, etc.
School Supply Closets - As we have done for years, we just completed our back pack collections for kids headed back to school in a couple of weeks. But we think we have an even better idea for supplying school supplies through the entire year. We are going to initiate a project where we collect (all year long) money and/or supplies to give the TEACHERS in the struggling schools. We will stock supply closets that the teachers have control over. Teachers these days spend a great deal of money "out of pocket" to keep their students supplied. There are kids who come to school with no pen, pencils, paper or Kleenex (ewww). We feel this approach provides more control (not every kid needs to whole back pack thing, but suddenly needs a notebook or colored pencils. One of our very newest members, Maria Romano has agreed to spearhead a money collection from her friends to get the project off the ground. Maria is a retired teacher and knows the difficulties experienced in so many schools. So bring on the supplies and/or a check for us to shop.
Corporate Matching Funds - Most of you know that we were just awarded our 501(c)(3) tax status and are now able to accept corporate donations and/or matching funds. If each of you could please suggest one company/corporation for us to approach, we could start making ourselves known and eligible for funding. We need you all to chime in on this….this has to be group brainstorming. Please try to assist with this endeavor.
Back Packs for Homeless - As winter approaches, we'll hear over and over about the homeless men and women living on the streets and looking for shelter at night. Several of the churches provide shelter and we think it would be good to give these houses of shelter filled backpacks to distribute to those who need hygiene products, toiletries, new/dry socks and underwear, hoodies, gloves, hats, etc. If you love this idea, please let us know that you will take ownership of trying to scare up donors for this. We'll need you to assemble the bags and drop them to the appropriate houses of shelter.
Storage Area – As you can see, we have so many ideas for collecting "stuff" needed. We really could use a storage area – a vacant garage, room, niche in a house or building. Renting a storage bin is not cost effective for us, but if you know of a space which could be donated to us for this use, please let us know.
New Children's Group – In addition to our years' long hosting of bi-monthly birthday parties at Project Hospitality's children's shelter, we are adding another large group of children in need. We are collaborating with Ms. Kiki Charles who is the Ambassador of all things good in the Mariner Harbor housing complexes to provide educational and recreational activities for these kids. Here is a great place to thank Lina Fang who contributes regularly to our Project Hospitality children's events. Which reminds me…..
Dual Halloween Parties - This was pretty well explained on Page 1, but please circle back and comment and pile on to volunteer and donate to the two places mentioned just above.
2015 AVON BREAST WALK – The Giving Circle has for years provided strong support to this event, especially since several of our members work all year on it. Mary Traina, Michele Baialardo, Kristen Tarsillo and the teens of these families work tirelessly to raise funds and they also walk the walk (37 miles….OMG). They have a fundraiser September 25th at the Looney Bin Comedy Club ($20/person). Please direct inquiries to Michele Baialardo at 718-619-9725. As with all our "asks," the kindest, more helpful thing you can do is RESPOND!!!
The gift basket for the October meeting will be provided by: Mary Traina and Michele Baialardo. The proceeds will go to their Avon Breast endeavor.
Thank you to Carole Speth for all her baking; Carole provides the whole dessert table for our monthly meetings which is time consuming and she bears the total expense.

A Poem Dedicated to the Staten Island Giving Circle By Dwight Owens
Giving doesn't always require money cause time and effort are free.
Giving doesn't require a resume; it doesn't require a college degree.
Giving means sacrifice; it's unselfish and it's kind.
Giving can mean being a mentor; It's not meant for those that whine.
Giving shows compassion; It can mean to serve or to volunteer.
But it has to be from the heart; it has to be sincere.
I give because God gave me a 2nd chance at life; It's my destination.
I owe it all to him as part of my salvation.
I give to help save lives and to give others hope.
I don't ever want people to be depressed or to sit around and mope.
I give because I literally get chills when I see others smile.
No matter what I'm going through, their joy makes everything worthwhile.
You should give because it could help someone else heal.
That could mean just listening to someone or providing a meal.
You should give because you didn't get where you are by yourself.
No matter how successful you are, at some point you received someone else's help.
You should give because it's simply the right thing to do.
No matter what or how you give, I show my appreciation to you.
If you haven't been a giver, then start doing it today.
Accidents happen; you may need the same help one day.
No matter how bad your situation may be, there is always someone worse.
It would be wise not to always do it for payback or to be reimbursed.
I'm impressed with the Giving Circle; I'm sure I'm not alone!
Thank you for making a difference; I encourage you to give on.

Google demos $1500 Google Glass by chucking someone out of a blimp, says select few will be able to buy
Google has detailed new information on its Google Project Glass glasses, demoing them in action at the company's Google I/O event in San Francisco.
Rushing on to the stage during the event, Google co-founder Sergey Brin interrupted a demo of a new Google + feature, Google + events, to go to four sky divers via a Google + Hangout, before they jumped out of a blimp above the event.
Through a series of handovers, those watching the event saw first hand how users will be able to share their life without even being there.
"We want Glass to work for many people in many situations," said Google showing off the event.
The latest details include new form factors, and the promise that the latest prototype will weigh less on your nose than many sunglasses.
Google says that the many reasons for the new glasses will be to share images and video, as well as accessing information on the go like email and text messages.
Much of the presentation focused on sharing images from a first-person perspective, however Google failed to detail how users can actually use the device, or when it would it be available, or even how much it would cost consumers suggesting that the project is still in its infancy.
"Capturing video and images is only a part of what a wearable computer can do," Sergey Brin said at the event.
That said, Brin did confirm that a very early version of the Google Project Glass glasses will be available to a select few developers. Google I/O attendees will be able to order what Google is dubbing the Google Glass Explorer edition of the glasses for $1500. The glasses will be available next year at some point.
Brin confirmed that the glasses won't be available to consumers. At the moment only only those who have attended the event in San Francisco can pre-order the new device.

Labor misleading public on gas plant: Barnett
The West Australian Opposition Leader, Colin Barnett, has accused the Treasurer, Eric Ripper, of misleading the public over whether the state has lost a multi-billion dollar gas project in the Kimberley.
Inpex will soon start a drilling project in Darwin Harbour investigating the foundations of a site it is considering to build the multi billion dollar gas plant.
The Japanese company is also considering the Maret Islands off Western Australia for the project.
Mr Barnett says he has information that Inpex told Mr Ripper's Chief of Staff on August 18 that it had decided where the project would be built.
"His Chief-of-Staff took the phone call and was informed by Inpex they had made their decision on the site of the gas project that they were developing," he said.
"It is my firm understanding that decision was to locate the plant in Darwin."
Mr Ripper says Inpex told him a week ago that it still had not made a decision on the location of the plant.
"I was told that they are still determining their position and that was the advice I got on August the 21st and no I haven't been told anything different," he said.
"Previously? Previously, I haven't been told anything different, they're still determining their position."

Few will be heartened by the fact that the debt will oppress race-neutrally.
We do so because in a diverse society, efforts to restrict speech can become a tool to silence critics, or oppress minorities.
Instead, it was proof the government is out to oppress them.
Because on your fast day you see to your business and oppress all your laborers!
This is a country whose people just fought a war against a man who used mercenaries to oppress them.
I am unable to stand longer to give utterance to the feelings of gratitude which oppress me.
How you oppress me, my dearest friend, with your politeness!
I do not allow care to oppress me; I do not shrink from responsibility; I am not afraid of danger.
But I will not oppress you, my dearest friend, with further reflections of this sort.
White Fang knew the law well: to oppress the weak and obey the strong.
mid-14c., from Old French opresser "oppress, afflict; torment, smother" (13c.), from Medieval Latin oppressare, frequentative of Latin opprimere "press against, press together, press down;" figuratively "crush, put down, subdue, prosecute relentlessly" (in Late Latin "to rape"), from ob "against" (see ob-) + premere "to press, push" (see press (v.1)).
It is the due [external] restraint and not the moderation of rulers that constitutes a state of liberty; as the power to oppress, though never exercised, does a state of slavery. [St. George Tucker, "View of the Constitution of the United States," 1803]Related: Oppressed; oppressing.

Americans Are Keeping Their Cars Longer - Where To Invest In The Automotive Sector 0 commentsConsumers are not being drawn into a new car purchase so easily these days. The latest data from Polk Automotive confirms what we've seen on American roads for some time: the age of the cars and trucks we're driving has hit an all-time high. Here are the survey findings:
These numbers should not come as a surprise. The average age of cars and trucks has been steadily rising over the last decade due a combination of factors. These factors include the higher prices on new cars, economic downturn with high unemployment and the mindset of the consumer. It may be two years or more before new car sales start to pickup.From an investing perspective, this means that auto parts supply companies and used car sales will benefit from the older age of cars in the U.S. You have the do-it-yourself group that will purchase from the retail auto suppliers, auto repair shops that purchase from wholesale parts suppliers and the full service dealers who service existing cars with warranties, etc. The table below shows stocks from each of these sectors.The best performing stocks in this sector is O'Reilly Automotive ORLY which is up 44% in the past year and AutoZone AZO, up 37% in the last year. Group 1 Automotive GPI was up 30% and Penske Automotive Group PAG was up 25%.The only stock on the list with a poor performance was Pep Boys PBY that was down 17% in the past year. This selloff has created a nice valuation as PBY has a EV/EBITDA ratio of 4.8 which is the cheapest stock on the list. PBY has an estimated EPS growth of 22.7% in 2012. This EPS growth is not priced in to the stock so if PBY can deliver the stock will outperform this year. AAP has EV/EBITDA of 7.1, a lower valuation than AZO (9.7) and ORLY (11.1).In the retail car sales, I prefer America's Carmart CRMT over Sonic Automotive SAH because they sell used cars while SAH also operates new car dealerships which I believe will lag behind used car sales in 2012. America's Car-Mart operates as an automotive retailer in the U.S. CRMT primarily sells older model used vehicles and provides financing for its customers. As of October 28, 2011, the company operated 111 dealerships in 9 states. CRMT has an EV/EBITDA of 8.7 which is slightly higher than SAH at 8.5.I rate Genuine Parts GPC as a neutral holding as it has too much inventory suggesting the wholesale business may be lagging. GPC has a nice dividend yield of 2.9%. GPC saw a 15% increase in profit to $151.8 million for the third quarter of 2011. Meanwhile, total sales increased 11% to $3.29 billion due to improvements across all their businesses as well as favorable conditions in the aftermarket and company-specific sales initiatives. Both earnings and sales surpassed Consensus Estimates during the quarter. Despite an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, the company's operating profit rose 18% to $276.8 million. Genuine Parts has undertaken various initiatives to boost sales and earnings, such as product line expansion, penetration into new markets and acquisitions.
