What is a Private Right of Action?
With a private right of action, employees may, on their own or with the assistance of an attorney, pursue claims against employers in court through private litigation to enforce their rights and those of other similarly situated employees.
The following are examples of the wage and hour laws that can be enforced through a private right of action:
- Minimum Wage Law ( M.G.L. c. 151, s. 1, 2 and 7)
- Payment of Wages Law ( M.G.L. c. 149, s. 148)
- Prevailing Wage Laws ( M.G.L. c. 149, s. 27, 27F-27H)
- Anti-Retaliation Laws ( M.G.L. c. 149, s. 148A; M.G.L. c. 151, s. 19(1) and (5))
- Employee Misclassification Law ( M.G.L. c. 149, s. 148B)
- Tips Law ( M.G.L. c. 149, s. 152A)
- Overtime Law ( M.G.L. c. 151, s. 1A)
- Domestic Workers Law (M.G.L. c 149, s 190)
In Massachusetts, under the so-called Treble Damages Law, employees who prevail in their wage and hour lawsuits shall receive treble damages (three times the amount of damages), attorneys' fees and litigation costs. [For violations of M.G.L. chapter 149, sections 27, 27F, 27G, 27H, 33E, 52D, 148, 148A, 148B, 150, 150C, 152, 152A, 159C; and chapter 151, sections 1B, 19 and 20.]
How to Obtain a Private Right of Action
Generally, employees first must file a complaint with the Attorney General's Office in order to file a private lawsuit in court. Employees will need proof of filing the complaint with the Attorney General's Office in order to pursue their private claim. (Employees do not need to file with the Attorney General's Office before filing suit for minimum wage or overtime violations pursuant to M.G.L. c. 151, s. 1B and 20.)
Employees who must file a complaint must then either: wait 90 days after filing with the Attorney General's Office before filing their private lawsuit in court; or receive permission from the Attorney General's Office to proceed with a private suit before the 90-day period set forth above. In order to do this, employees must request a private right of action from the Attorney General's Office.
If you are filing an electronic complaint form and would like to request a private right of action (right to sue) letter that waives this 90 day period, please indicate this in the comment section of the eform. Click here to access the complaint form .
If you are mailing in a paper complaint form, you may want to make this request with a cover letter. View a sample request below:
A private right of action gives an employee-complainant the ability to pursue the case privately. It is not a determination of the merits of a case. You may pursue your private right of action on your own or with the assistance of a private attorney. If you need to find an attorney, you may wish to consult with a bar association or legal service office.
Depending on the amount of damages (wages owed), employees should file in Small Claims Court, District Court, or Superior Court.
Statutes of Limitations (Time Limit on Filing Claims)
In all cases, employees must be aware that the wage and hour laws set forth the period of time within which a lawsuit must be filed in court after the violation has occurred. This period is called the "statute of limitations." Employees must file their complaint before the end of the period or they could lose their right to sue. Statutes of limitations for certain private rights of action include:
- Minimum Wage Law - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 151, s. 20A) (effective 11/18/14)
- Non-Payment of Wages - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 148 and 150)*
- Prevailing Wage Law - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 27, 27F, 27G, 27H)*
- Anti-Retaliation Law - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 148A)*
- Tips Law - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 152A)*
- Small Necessities Leave Act - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 52D)*
- Employee Misclassification - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 149, s. 150)*
- Overtime Law - 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 151, s. 20A) (effective 11/18/14)
- Record Keeping Law – 3 years (per M.G.L. c. 151, s. 15) (effective 11/18/14)
- Domestic Workers Law – 3 years (per M.G.L. c 149, s 190) (effective 04/01/15)
* Complaint must be filed with the Attorney General's Office prior to exercising right to sue in court.
NEW: Tolling of the Statutes of Limitations (Effective 11/18/14):
The statutes of limitations for employees individual wage and hour claims are tolled, meaning their respective statutes of limitations stop running, once claims are filed with the Office of the Attorney General. However, the statutes of limitations start running on employees' individual claims again (1) the date that the Attorney General issues a letter authorizing a private right of action or (2) the date on which an enforcement action by the Attorney General (including the closure of a case) becomes final, whichever occurs first. (Chapter 292 of the Acts of 2014)

Daily Positional Breakdown: Part 8: LB
2011 - LB's
James Laurinaitis:
16 G, 142 tackles, 3.0 sacks, 0 FF, 2 INT, 7 PDF
Chris Chamberlain:
14 G, 81 tackles, 2.0 sacks, 1 FF, 1 INT, 1 PDF
Brady Poppinga:

Bryan Kehl:
1 GS, 14 G, 15 tackles, 0 sacks, 0 FF, 0 INT, 0 PDF
Other than Laurinaitis our LB play was terrible, once again. James Laurinaitis continues to improve and has been playing at a pro bowl level since his rookie year. Entering his last year of his rookie contract, he needs to be locked up long term. The additions of Poppinga and Leber did not help one bit. Leber was horrible and was released midway through the season. Poppinga played because we had nothing else, but wasn't even decent. The only other LB that contributed in any way was Chris Chamberlain who had his ups and downs.
2012 - Projections
James Laurinaitis:
16 G, 145 tackles, 3.0 sacks, 1 FF, 1 INT, 5 PDF
Jo-Lonn Dunbar:
16 G, 92 tackles, 0.5 sacks, 3 FF, 0 INT, 4 PDF
Rocky McIntosh:

Sammy Brown:
13 G, 14 tackles, 2.5 sacks, 1 FF, 0 INT, 0 PDF
Aaron Brown / Alex Hoffman-Ellis:
11 G, 11 tackles, 0.0 sacks, 0 FF, 0 INT, 0 PDF
Laurinaitis will be the consistent rock and QB of the defense that we have come to expect. Hopefully this time around he doesn't get snubbed from the pro bowl for overrated and old players like Brian Urlacher. Jo-Lonn Dunbar will start opposite of Laurinaitis and will have plenty of opportunities to make a name for himself. He is a good player, and a hard hitter who should help seal the edge and stop the run. Rocky McIntosh and Mario Haggan will split time for the last starting spot. I think McIntosh is a good player who was playing out of position. If he can go back to his production from a few years ago he will be a steal. The rookies wont get much, if any, playing time other than ST. I have Sammy Brown down with 2.5 sacks because he is a monster at the pass rush, and he can be a hypbrid 3-4 OLB type of player.
"The Edge"
I believe the 2012 LB corps has a huge advantage. The additions of Dunbar, McIntosh, and Haggan are big. We gain 2 starters, ST players, and a veteran presence. I am looking forward to a big improvement at the OLB position, and for this team to be solid in stopping the run.

I wanted to add a few pictures to this to help out.
These are the tools you will need to make the job easier.
extension (really long one or a couple of short ones)
plastic rivet remover
magnet (metal tool retriever)
11mm socket
Then of course you'll remove the items in the order that it states above. It states that you don't need to remove the grill to be able to remove the headlights but TRUST me, you DO need to remove the top bolts holding the grill on. Once you remove these you can move the grill forward enough to get to the lower bolt holding the headlight on.
These are the four bolts to remove to loosen up the grill to make work easier.
These are the two bolts you will have to remove from the headlight.
This is a picture of the plastic tab that you'll have to push up/down to remove headlight and reinstall it as well.
This is the connector that is holding the headlight, just pull straight out and then start to pull while rotating the headlight towards the grill. It comes out easier that way.
Once headlight is out, disconnect these two items.
Then sit the headlight down on something sturdy and remove the two covers as shown below. disconnect the wires from the bulbs and rotate the bulbs to remove them. Now your ready to install the new bulbs and go in a reverse order to put everything back together. I hope this helps some...
What do I know, I'm just some dumb peckerwood that lives in the country with too many guns...

Homeless man in Charleroi accused of violating Megan's Law
A homeless man was arrested Thursday in Charleroi for an alleged violation of Megan's Law requirements for convicted sex offenders.
George Allan Linneman, 43, was arrested by Charleroi Regional Police officer Billy Gardner 5:14 p.m. at Chamber Plaza after police received numerous complaints about Linneman sleeping on borough sidewalks and on the front porch at 717 McKean Ave.
Linneman's registered address under Megan's Law requirements is 717 McKean Ave. and he allegedly told Gardner he lived there.
Gardner said the property's owner, Cliff Yerkey, said Linneman does not live there and doesn't have permission to be on the property.
Police said the rental lease lists Linneman's brother and sister-in-law, Garrett and Tommie Linneman, as tenants. Tommie Linneman purportedly told Gardner her brother-in-law does not live at 717 McKean Ave. but receives mail there.
George Linneman was arraigned on a felony charge of failure to comply with registration of sex offenders and sent to the Washington County Correctional Facility in lieu of $25,000 straight cash bond.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled July 3 before Magisterial District Judge Larry Hopkins in Charleroi.
During a May 2005 trial in the Washington County Court of Common Pleas, Linneman pleaded no contest to one misdemeanor charge of indecent assault with a person less than 13 years of age.
However, the commonwealth chose not to prosecute other charges, including two felony counts of indecent assault.
On Feb. 24, Charleroi Regional police arrested Linneman after he allegedly broke into a vacant house in the 700 block of Fallowfield Ave., just hours after he was released from jail for failure to pay fines and court costs.
Charleroi Regional police said two workers went to the house to clean earlier that day and found Linneman passed out upstairs next to a case of beer.
In that case, he is awaiting trial for felony criminal trespass and other charges.

About NYCvort
I am a meteorologist from New York who has been studying and forecasting the local weather for years. I especially enjoy tracking winter storms.
By: NYCvort, 3:39 PM GMT on May 28, 2011
Potential for severe weather on Wednesday?
There are numerous forecast ingredients indicating the possibility of severe weather in parts of the mid-Atlantic states on Wednesday. As such, the SPC has already highlighted this possible threat in their D5 outlook.
I want to briefly outline some of the projected indices. Keeping in mind that these numbers outputted by the GFS certainly cannot be taken as verbatim this far out, here is the current impressive MLCAPE forecast for Wednesday afternoon.
The GFS shows mean layer and surface based CAPEs of 2000-4000+ J/kg Wednesday afternoon along the I-95 corridor. While this may not verify as printed, it does give us a sense of just how great the thermodynamics will likely be on Wednesday that could provide the necessary energy for severe thunderstorm development. There will be plenty of mid-level dry air to contrast with the warm, moist low levels (dewpoints in the upper 60s).
The mechanism for initiating convection will be the approaching cold front. Lifted indices are currently forecast by the GFS to drop below -10 over a widespread area, which is indicative of a very highly unstable environment.
Wind shear will also increase as the jet stream becomes closer in proximity. The GFS is showing 30+ kts of 0-6km bulk shear in the majority the mid-Atlantic region by Wednesday evening.
This may end up being the limiting factor. Speed and directional wind shear are both somewhat lacking. I would like to see greater speed shear values with such high CAPE for organized severe thunderstorm development.
(Continue reading for the weekly forecast discussion)
Impressive 594dm ridge over east early next week
As a deep trough digs into the western US this weekend and with a lack of high latitude blocking, model guidance is in good agreement on a ridge surging up in the eastern US and building through early next week. GFS ensembles are suggesting that much of the mid-Atlantic region will be kicking off the unofficial start of the summer season with very impressive 500mb heights of 594dm.
On Memorial Day, we will have a 10-15 mph boundary layer WSW flow with fairly good mixing and downsloping east of the Appalachians will further enhance temperature potential under this wind configuration. The white shading on the image below represents 850mb temperatures forecasted by the GFS to be greater than +18C, or 64F. Under these conditions coupled with decent mixing and downsloping, many areas near the I-95 corridor will likely make it into the low to possibly mid 90s. Heat indices will be in the upper 90s.
With the ridge axis just to the west of the Appalachians, one thing that we will have to be wary of is the possibility of a weak backdoor cold front sinking to the south Monday night. This would act to suppress the core of the heat on Tuesday. 850mb temperatures would fall slightly and winds would veer and introduce a greater easterly component to the surface flow, thus losing the downsloping effect and allowing for greater marine influence along the coast. The NAM, ECMWF, and SREF ensembles are in good agreement on this front, with the GFS being more of an outlier in washing it out. The higher resolution of the NAM and ECMWF may be better able to capture this weak surface feature that the GFS loses more quickly.
The ridge will retrograde mid next week as a trough and associated cold front roll on down with thunderstorms on Wednesday and cooler temperatures for the end of the week with falling heights.
Temperatures on Friday will only make it into the low 70s along with low humidity. Overnight lows will be in the 50s area-wide.
Looking further in the extended range, a retrograding ridge over the north Atlantic could bring back a negative NAO pattern and act to keep troughing over the northeast, with the northern mid-Atlantic region under northwest flow aloft and sunshine likely allowing for near normal temperatures and pleasant conditions. Below on the left is the ECMWF 8-10 day average height pattern and on the right is the GFS predicted height pattern for the middle of the following week, each featuring a negative NAO pattern.
The ensembles are indicating a falling NAO index heading towards next weekend, possibly turning negative at the end of the forecast period.
Have a great holiday weekend
Updated: 10:55 PM GMT on May 28, 2011
By: NYCvort, 4:59 AM GMT on May 22, 2011
Just to quickly follow up on my last discussion, the 90s will not be happening this week as our energy is expected to weaken considerably and close off, thereby sealing off the possibility of an omega block developing. However, it will still warm considerably on Tuesday before a front pushes to our south and cools us down. The forecast becomes more interesting in terms of what happens as we unofficially kick off summer on Memorial Day and the days immediately following, with substantial disagreement once again amongst the models, which in fact has been the case for the last several days and continues with the latest model runs. Each result would have a big impact on temperature and precipitation.
So we begin with this week. Our trough will slowly continue to depart and ridging will build through the day on Sunday. Ordinarily this would result in even warmer weather conditions than Saturday; however, a backdoor cold front continues to sink to the south, and this will lead to a cooler air mass settling in and thus cooler temperatures along with plenty of clouds. A similar situation will be on tap for Monday as well, though it will be milder with a greater southerly component surface air flow. Warm advection showers will be possible Sunday night. Then, a weak mid-level shortwave and surface trough will move overhead late Monday into Monday night with showers and possible elevated thunderstorms.
A cold front will approach on Tuesday, and out ahead of the front, winds will veer around to the west and all of the ingredients will be in place for temperatures to be off to the races. 850mb temperatures will be in the upper 50s to near 60:
This warm air mass overhead along with plenty of sunshine coupled with aligned west winds and downsloping will allow for temperatures to soar into the upper 80s. Under this wind configuration, the warmth will spread right up to the coast. One thing that we may need to keep an eye on is the potential for isolated strong thunderstorms to develop. With not much shear but moderate surface and mixed layer CAPE to work with after daytime heating, we may see some pulse storms pop up with a lack of organization:
A shortwave will roll through on Wednesday and likely spark more shower activity, and additional energy riding in later in the week may ignite more showers or thunderstorms as we remain in close vicinity to a stationary front:
Exactly where the front sets up shop will be important in determining temperatures during the period. The ECMWF model sends the front back northward sooner than the GFS and is warmer overall (largely due to the differences in handling of the slowly departing trough discussed last week, with the EC closing it off again and allowing ridging to build over top and connect us with the Atlantic ridge, while the GFS keeps it open). Regardless, expect generally above normal temperatures and more of the same heading into the first part of the Memorial Day weekend. That's where it starts to get more interesting.
The GFS and ECMWF models are at it again, each featuring starkly different solutions in the extended range:
The ensemble mean of each of the two models (not shown) offers a more moderate solution, but it is basically a compromise between the two possible outcomes. It looks to me like it is more than likely one or the other. The key feature is a strong piece of energy that will be coming ashore and scooting along the US/Canadian border. It is what happens then that varies between the two models. The two different potential paths of this feature are shown below, with the GFS model on the left and the ECMWF on the right:
The GFS is showing this energy getting picked up by a shortwave in the powerful northern stream trough rotating around over eastern Canada. In the meantime, a strong upper low will be dumping into the west coast. The aforementioned energy rides around the building ridge being pumped up by the west coast trough, and temperatures over the entire eastern half of the nation soar through much of the week as a 594dm upper high builds over the midwest. Furthermore, the energy that rode around the ridge drops into a weakness still off the coast over the western Atlantic and an omega block forms. So, we experience an extended period of dry sunny weather and maybe a heat wave with temperatures possibly surpassing 90 for three days. Here is what the GFS shows by next Tuesday. Note the large swath of 20+ degrees Celsius 850mb temperatures (20 is the red line on the bottom right panel), which would include the NYC area:
However, don't get your swim trunks ready just yet, as the ECMWF model couldn't be more different. It believes that the energy does not get picked up by the northern stream. Rather, it slides down the eastern flank of the building ridge ahead of the now slowed low approaching the west coast and into an eastern US trough. The energy forms a 546dm southern stream closed low in the same general vicinity of where the 594dm high is at the same time prog on the GFS:
You can see in the image above how regardless there is likely a very amplified upper level pattern, but the question is in which part of the block do we end up, which will have a significant impact on sensible weather. In addition to its significant effect on temperatures, the ECMWF solution shows a strengthening low level jet pulling up Atlantic moisture and making for a cool, damp end to the Memorial Day weekend, followed by another slowly weakening and departing low in the first few unofficial days of summer, likely leading to more unsettled weather:
The reason why I don't think a middle of the road, flatter solution is likely is that the whole large scale pattern is dependent on the fate of this energy. If the energy is picked up, then I feel that the powerful upper low will have no trouble sinking into the west coast and thus a strong ridge pumping up over the east. The few GEFS ensemble members showing a zonal flow just doesn't seem right to me given that strong upper low coming in from the Gulf of Alaska. I think we are in for a very amplified flow pattern over North America in the extended range, but once again, the main question that remains is where will everything fall into place? Since writing this, the 18z and 0z runs of the GFS have begun to edge slightly closer toward the ECMWF solution, showing the energy "missing" the northern stream and forming a (weaker) trough over the east, followed by Bermuda high pressure keeping us in a damp maritime tropical air mass:
It will be interesting to follow what actually transpires.

Tue 5/17 Discussion—What are these rumors of 90 degrees late next week?
There is little doubt about the idea of a warm up next week; however, just how long the warmth sticks around and whether it builds or recedes later next week has been in great debate amongst the models. Last night's 0z suite outputted a wide variety of solutions, indicating that the start of the Memorial Day weekend could either be a little chilly this year with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s (GGEM), versus remarkably hot and humid with highs near 90, heat indices likely approaching 100 and lows at night struggling to make it down to 70 degrees (ECMWF). The GFS solution falls somewhere in between.
Cold Solution:
Mild Solution:
Hot and Humid Solution:
As you can see above, 850mb temperatures at the exact same time prog of next Thursday evening range between 0°C and 20°C. This would make a world of difference. The new European model that came out this afternoon has taken a significant step in the direction of the GFS and is now showing highs in the 70s. The really interesting part is that a major feature in determining how this plays out is the upper low that is currently producing our soaker this week. Last night's EC wanted to keep a more amplified trough over the western Atlantic in response to leftover energy from the low, and that further enhanced any ridging that was able to pop up over the east and kept it in place longer. This solution would be viable, especially if you consider how the energy from these upper lows is often slower to dissipate than expected. The GGEM on the other hand used the positive PNA ridging to dig a deep trough down into the eastern US. The whole look to this seemed a little extreme in my opinion though, as the GGEM often is. Right now I would argue for a solution somewhere in the middle, but I wouldn't completely discount a warmer solution just yet. The new 12z EC is showing the energy from the upper low close off once again and slide underneath the western Atlantic ridge. This is producing a cooler solution than 0z.
Possible Solutions (from warmest to coolest):
Sat 5/14 Discussion—Blocked upper low to bring unsettled weather through next week
Take a look at this morning's upper level pattern, which includes a huge western North America ridge, which can often be one of the precursors to the development of a closed low downstream (which is exactly what we are expecting to reform next week):
A very interesting set up will be comprised this week in the upper atmosphere. Today we have an upper low over the midwest which will be slowly translating eastward into the Ohio Valley through early next week. You can see the swirl of the low, as well as the large amount of moisture getting pulled up, on today's water vapor loop:
This upper low will be gradually filling as it loses its punch (if you watch closely near the center of the swirl on the water vapor loop above, you can even see it starting to gradually to disorganize a bit towards the end of the loop) . However, additional energy rounding the western North America ridge will be dropping in from the polar jet stream and act to reenergize the upper level system:
At that point, the upper low will spin over the Ohio and Tennessee River valleys during the mid-week period, followed by a shift northeastward into the mid-Atlantic region late in the week with gradual filling. The upper low will become locked in by the large ridge drifting from western to central North America and a polar jet receding way up into northeastern Canada. As a result, a rex block will form for a time mid-late next week as the flow buckles and high pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere becomes situated over the Canadian Provinces, directly to the north of the upper low:
This will result in some unseasonably warm and sunny conditions over parts of south central Canada, but a persistent period of cloudy and rather wet conditions in our region. Granted it will not be raining all the time, but when you add it all together, it will amount to one soggy week.
Also note the immense high latitude blocking late next week with our low trapped underneath:
The details…
It looks like we will see showers/thunderstorms develop on Sunday as a couple of mid-level shortwaves move on through. Then, drier air begins to filter in at the mid-levels on Sunday night and will remain overhead at least through the day on Monday. There will still be plenty of moisture around in the low levels and especially at the surface, so fog will be possible Sunday night, especially near the coast. Monday is a little dicey because the GFS is showing the low levels clearing out a bit more than the NAM, which would allow for perhaps a couple breaks of sun and temperatures soaring into the mid 70s area-wide. However, the NAM keeps us under a thick cloud deck and holds temperatures in the low 60s at best. This would also mean about a ten degree difference in overnight lows Monday night, with either another humid, summerlike night and min temperatures of around 60 degrees under a southeasterly flow versus lows dropping to near or below 50 in a northeast flow. The exact placement of the front will be key in determining this. The differences would also affect precipitation because being to the north of the front would allow for a surface over which overrunning could occur, with a more substantial rainfall Monday night as opposed to a couple passing showers. For what it's worth, right now the European and Canadian model guidance both fall more within the NAM camp, so the GFS may be too far northwest with the front. Still, I'm not convinced that surface high pressure over Canada would be strong enough to overcome the strong southerly mid-level air flow which will be attempting to keep the front well inland. We'll just have to wait and see about this portion of the forecast.
A more significant shortwave rotating around the upper low will bring in a nice feed of moisture off the Atlantic and combine with a sharpening gradient between the surface low and high pressure over the Canadian Maritimes to overrun and soak us with a steady rain from Tuesday into Wednesday:
Drier air filters in overhead once again on Thursday, followed by what is left of the filling low passing overhead on Friday. The cold pool aloft with 500mb temps approaching -20°C will generate instability and lead to some showers developing during the day on Friday:
I am glad to be able say that improving weather conditions will likely greet us next weekend as the trough/low slowly pulls away (likely slower than the GFS is showing, probably more like the EC).

By: NYCvort, 9:25 PM GMT on May 09, 2011
Over the next several days, we will continue to experience what will end up being some of the nicest weather of the next few months. An upper low has formed off the coast largely from the bundling energy resulting out of the negative NAO pattern.
This low will continue to spin ever so slowly southeastward, and it will continue to keep a very pleasant, dry northerly flow across the area. The ridge axis currently located over the midwest will continue building into the region through Friday. As a result, rather than being entrenched in the progressive pattern that we were in earlier this spring, with system after system affecting us and wet conditions every few days, we will now be in a slow moving pattern—and in just the right location in the pattern at that for beautiful spring weather conditions. 850mb temperatures will be right around normal for this time of year in between the two weather features. The wind will pick up a bit on Tuesday as high pressure noses down slightly from eastern Canada and contrasts with low pressure off the coast associated with the upper low.
Continued low dewpoints being drilled down will mean comfortably cool nighttime lows in the upper 40s most spots to low 50s in the city, and mild daytime highs in the 60s east of the city (closer to upper low and lower heights) to low 70s west. Another interesting feature of this weather pattern is that with the strong northerly component boundary layer flow, we will not see any seabreeze develop at the coast, with mild temperatures continuing right into the evening without a quick drop-off often seen this time of year with the cold ocean temperatures. A weak shortwave rotating around the upper low will mean a slight increase in clouds on Wednesday, but no precipitation is expected. High pressure will be overhead late in the week with a decrease in winds but an increase in afternoon seabreeze development. Still no rain on the horizon until the weekend.
Enjoy it

A cold front will slowly push through the area, with showers expected behind the front during the day on Wednesday. Heights will fall through Wednesday night, squeezing 1000-500mb thicknesses to sub-534dm. This will lead to some rather chilly spring weather, with temperatures on Wednesday failing to get out of the 50s under cool cloud-covered northwest flow. Lows starting Wed night will be falling into the mid 40s in the city and upper 30s in some of the suburbs:
Downstream ridging building across Greenland has led to a negative NAO pattern developing:
As a result, rather than our approaching disturbances progressing through the area quickly and moving out to sea, now they will be "trapped" with pooling shortwaves leading to a mean trough setting up in our vicinity. This pattern will likely feature two phases of below normal heights, the first coming late this week through the upcoming weekend, followed by some ridging over the east much of next week before another trough potentially impacts the east beginning late next week. That second one will also have support from the PNA rising to a positive state:
As a result, this will likely lead to a more amplified trough digging down possibly as far south as Florida:
This is all in response to changing pattern, with high latitude blocking forming over Greenland and then also setting up across northern Canada towards the end of the period. Another thing that is interesting to note is that the AO index is now negative, and this is the first time it has gone substantially negative since mid-January:
A negative AO pattern this time of year generally implicates below normal heights in this part of the country:
So, over the coming days, we can expect to see near to slightly below normal temperatures throughout much of the northeastern United States.

Alchemist Theatre's 'King Lear' reigns as family drama
Early in Friday's opening-night performance of Alchemist Theatre's "King Lear," Bo Johnson's aged king called for the map demonstrating his intended division of Britain among his three daughters. Lear's attendants dutifully unfurled it — with the bottom at the top and the top at the bottom. When they tried to hang the map up, it kept falling down.
Director Leda Hoffmann confirmed during intermission that this sequence wasn't planned. But such a topsy-turvy world aptly illustrates the disorder that descends on Britain once the hot-tempered Lear banishes his beloved Cordelia, counting on his remaining two daughters to keep him and Britain safe. »Read Full Article

This product helps to enhance health in two ways:
Taken between meals it helps to break down soft plaque in the blood vessels, thins the blood, helps with menstrual problems and works as an anti-inflammatory for painful joints.
Taken with meals it is an excellent digestive aid that helps with bloating, gas and minimizes the feeling of fullness.
Turmeric stimulates digestion, supports the liver, and reduces intestinal permeability. Turmeric's active ingredient is curcumin which helps to check inflammation by inhibiting leukotrienes and thromboxanes. Curcumin is also an antioxidant that helps to stabilize membranes that are damaged by inflammation.
Bromelain, an enzyme isolated from the stem of the pineapple plant, aids in digestion by breaking down protein, and improves the absorption of turmeric. Bromelain also helps with blood vessel and joint inflammation. Bromelain blocks the body's production of kinins, reducing swelling and promoting healing. Bromelain's most common application is in the treatment of inflammation and soft tissue injuries. It has been shown to speed healing from bruises and hematomas. Treatment with bromelain following blunt injuries to the musculoskeletal system results in a clean reduction in swelling, pain at rest and during movement, and tenderness. Administration of bromelain presurgically can reduce the average number of days for complete disappearance of pain and inflammation.
Naural Factor's goal is to deliver supplements which marry the wisdom of ancient herbal physicians and the science of modern clinical research to enhance the health of consumers everywhere.

Would be to ride by jamestown and enjoy the sights then some dinner a movie nice converstion
my idea of our first date might be a nice ride somewhere for lunch or dinner,either together on one bike or two bikes
what ever takes our fancy on the day, no predictions, just let the day take us to were it wants to.
depends on what we both agree on
a day in a theme park, or a ride to the beach.....no dinner, no movies....
just a simple meet and greet at a park, or quiet place for a cold drink
Lets see what we plan.................a day outside talking and getting to know each other.
dinner and a movie,maybe a long ride ,maybe a walk to talk and get to know one another
Learning about each other and take it from there...
Go for a ride in the mountains and stop by a restaurant for lunch or dinner
A ride, lunch and conversation.
Meet somewhere for a bite to eat and some interaction. If we hit it off, go for a ride and let me show what a good BSB I am...after that whatever we decide to do.
Some place quiet where we can talk.

Surface Transportation:
Principles Can Guide Efforts to Restructure and Fund Federal Programs
GAO-08-744T: Published: Jul 10, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 10, 2008.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The nation has reached a critical juncture with its current surface transportation policies and programs. Demand has outpaced the capacity of the system, resulting in increased congestion. In addition, without significant changes in funding levels or planned spending, the Highway Trust Fund--the major source of federal highway and transit funding-- is projected to incur significant deficits in the years ahead. Exacerbating concerns about the solvency of the Highway Trust Fund is the federal government's bleak fiscal condition and outlook. As a result, other federal revenue sources may not be available to help solve the nation's current transportation challenges. This statement is based on a body of work that GAO has completed over the past several years for Congress. This testimony discusses (1) GAO's recent findings on the structure and performance of the current surface transportation program (GAO-08-400), (2) a framework to assess proposals for restructuring of the surface transportation program, (3) potential options to fund investments in the surface transportation system, and (4) our recent findings on the benefits, costs, and trade-offs of using public-private partnerships to help fund transportation investments (GAO-08-44).
Since federal fundingfor the interstate system was established in 1956, the federal role in surface transportation has expanded to include broader goals, more programs, and a variety of program structures. Consequently, the goals of current programs are numerous and sometimes conflicting, and the federal role in these programs is unclear. For example, federal programs do not effectively address key transportation challenges, such as increasing congestion and freight demand. Many surface transportation programs are also not linked to performance of the transportation system or of the grantees, and programs often do not employ the best tools and approaches. Finally, the fiscal sustainability of the numerous highway, transit, and safety programs funded by the Highway Trust Fund is in doubt, because spending from the fund has increased without commensurate increases in revenues. A number of principles can help guide the assessment of proposals to restructure and fund federal surface transportation programs. These principles include (1) ensuring goals are well defined and focused on the national interest, (2) ensuring the federal role in achieving each goal is clearly defined, (3) ensuring accountability for results by entities receiving federal funds, (4) employing the best tools and approaches to improve results and emphasize return on targeted federal investment, and (5) ensuring fiscal sustainability. A range of options could be used to fund the growing demand for additional investment in the surface transportation system. There are two revenue sources for these additional investments: taxes and fees. Financing mechanisms, such as bonding and revolving funds, could also be used to fund transportation infrastructure projects when tax and user fee approaches are not sufficient to meet demands. However, these financing mechanisms are all forms of debt that ultimately must be repaid with interest by the general population through tax increases or reductions in government services. Each of these options has different merits and challenges, and the selection of any of them will likely involve trade-offs among different policy goals. Highway public-private partnerships show promise as a viable alternative, where appropriate, to help meet growing and costly transportation demands. The highway public-private partnerships created to date have resulted in advantages from the perspective of state and local governments, such as the construction of new infrastructure without using public funding. However, highway public-private partnerships also entail potential costs and risks including the reality that funds from public-private partnerships are largely a new source of borrowed funds--a form of privately issued debt that must be repaid to private investors. Ultimately the extent to which public-private partnerships can be used to help meet the nation's transportation funding challenges will depend on the ability of states to weigh potential benefits against potential costs and trade-offs to determine whether public-private partnerships are appropriate in specific circumstances--and if so--how best to implement them and protect the public interest.

Who Stole Feminism?
Cover of the first edition
|Christina Hoff Sommers
|United States
|June 3, 1994 (Simon & Schuster)
|Media type
|Print (hardcover and paperback)
Who Stole Feminism? How Women Have Betrayed Women is a 1994 book by Christina Hoff Sommers, a writer who was at that time a philosophy professor at Clark University. It received wide attention for its attack on American feminism, and it was given highly polarized reviews divided between conservative and liberal commentators.[1]
Sommers's book popularized the idea that there is a split within American feminism between what she called "equity feminism" and "gender feminism". Sommers contends that equity feminists seek equal legal rights for women and men, while gender feminists seek to counteract historical inequalities based on gender. Some feminist scholars responded that there was no such split in feminism, and that Sommers was promoting the social viewpoint of victim blaming. Some reviewers praised the book highly for putting feminism on the defense, while others claimed that Sommers' research, facts, and assumptions were flawed.
In general, Sommers declared, "American feminism is currently dominated by a group of women who seek to persuade the public that American women are not the free creatures we think we are". She asserts that such feminists have "alienated and silenced women and men alike." She writes, "These consciousness-raisers are driving out the scholars on many campuses."[2]
Using the term "gender feminists" to describe those she sees as arguing based on false assumptions and ideology rather than belief in true equality, Sommers states that those activists "have proved very adroit in getting financial support from governmental and private sources" and "hold the keys to many bureaucratic fiefdoms". She also writes, "It is now virtually impossible to be appointed to high administrative office in any university system without having passed muster with the gender feminist".[2]
Early reviews and responses[edit]
Who Stole Feminism? was first reviewed in Kirkus Reviews in April 1994, two months prior to publication. The staff at Kirkus said that Sommers' book highlighted instances of "shoddy" research in feminist studies but failed to tell the reader about similar poor quality research in other fields. Sommers was said to be confused about categories of feminism, to have invented a sort of "gender feminism" to fit her purpose of promoting her brand of liberal feminism, and that "ironically, she weaves a theory of conspiracy equal in force to those she seeks to debunk." Kirkus said that Sommers presumed to speak for the majority of feminists "without providing persuasive evidence that most women are liberal feminists." Sommers was praised for her valid challenges to feminist ideology, but her assumptions were described as flawed.[3]
A book review published in June 1994 by Nina Auerbach in The New York Times Book Review was widely seen.[4] Auerbach, a scholar of Victorian literature, was highly critical of Sommers, finding fault with her facts and logic; Auerbach said that the John M. Olin Foundation which paid for the book's publication should have found "a less muddled writer" for the task. Sommers responded to the criticism by saying that the Times should not have assigned Auerbach to the review, since as an organizer of a feminist event portrayed negatively in the book, she was sure to be prejudiced against the ideas in the book. Conservatives such as Jim Sleeper, Howard Kurtz and Rush Limbaugh defended Sommers; Limbaugh said that the Times was attempting to "kill this book".[5]
Editor Deirdre English writing in The Washington Post Book World was appreciative of the investigative aspect of Sommers' work but she questioned the polarized depiction of feminism. Calling Sommers a "well-published conservative [who] is itching for a fight", she said the book would likely provoke debate "as well as some retractions". English said of the book that "the root question is whether women want equality with men as they are, in the world men have shaped, or if women seek change in that world".[6]
Linda Hirshman was critical of facts found in the book; writing in the Los Angeles Times, Hirshman said that Sommers made mistakes in regard to her passages about the historic practice of a husband beating his wife to maintain discipline; Hirshman said that Sommers pointedly left out a case wherein the husband was not convicted.[7] Laura Flanders reviewed the book negatively in Extra!, published by progressive media watchdog Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR). Flanders said that Sommers made the same mistakes she accused feminists of making, such that Sommers' book contained "unsubstantiated charges", cites to "advocacy research", and statistical errors likely based on a misreading of the source material.[2]
The book was positively reviewed by Cathy Young who was an executive colleague of Sommers in the Women's Freedom Network. It was also highly praised in the National Review by Sommers' close friend Mary Lefkowitz.[5] Camille Paglia called the book a "landmark study... which uses ingenious detective work to unmask the shocking fraud and propaganda of establishment feminism and the servility of American media and academe to Machiavellian feminist manipulation."[8] Melanie Kirkpatrick, writing in The Wall Street Journal, gave the book high marks, saying that "Sommers simply lines up her facts and shoots one bullseye after another."[9]
John M. Ellis, a scholar of German literature, praised Sommers for challenging the "intellectual deterioration" that has occurred within feminism. He writes that Sommers' book, along with others voicing similar views, was met with "bitter hostility" from campus feminists, and that when Rebecca Sinkler, the editor of the New York Times Book Review, gave the book to Auerbach to review, the result was a "predictable trashing." According to Ellis, "the malice and dishonesty of Auerbach's review was so obvious...that it provoked not just a storm of protest but a response almost without precedent."[10] Feminist columnist Katha Pollitt, however, thought Auerbach's review was too polite, that it failed to give Sommers' book "the pasting it deserved".[5]
Gay rights activist John Lauritsen, writing in A Freethinker's Primer of Male Love, agrees with Sommers that women are the main victims of "gender feminists".[11]
Sommers' claims regarding the legal permissiveness of wife beating have been criticized as inaccurate. In arguing that British law since the 1700s and American law since before the Revolution prohibits wife beating, Sommers quotes English legal historian William Blackstone as saying that the "husband was prohibited from using any violence to his wife..."[12] Critiquing the first edition of the book, Hirshman and Flanders separately argue that Sommers left out the other half of Blackstone's sentence that says in Latin "other than that which lawfully and reasonably belongs to the husband for the due government and correction of his wife". Flanders said that Blackstone's "complete text says the exact opposite of Sommers' partial quotation".[7] Sommers wrote a rebuttal column a week after Hirshman's Los Angeles Times piece stating that Blackstone's quotation had been misinterpreted, and had only been citing an outdated law since superseded.[13]
In the first edition of Who Stole Feminism?, Sommers wrote about how a figure of 40% increase of domestic violence incidents had been reportedly associated with the annual Super Bowl game. Sommers found that the figure was not based on any study. Sociologist Rhonda Hammer of University of California, Los Angeles, writes that Sommers, despite her debunking of the 40% figure, went too far in claiming that "no study shows that Super Bowl Sunday is in any way different from other days in the amount of domestic violence". Hammer said that Sommers ignored a variety of studies that showed increased domestic violence during the Super Bowl.[14] Writing on the same Super Bowl issue, criminologist Samuel Walker Kiewit was impressed by Sommers' debunking of the 40% statistic but he said she ignored the underlying seriousness of the domestic violence problem.[15]
Later reviews and analysis[edit]
Writing a decade after the publication of Sommers' book, Professor Anne-Marie Kinahan of Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada places the book in the context of a wider antifeminist backlash was framed by Sommers and two contemporary publications: The New Victorians by René Denfeld and The Morning After by Katie Roiphe. Kinahan views these three books as signalling a collective "fear of the perceived radicalism of feminism on university campuses", which is blamed by the three authors on the rise of queer theory and the growing power of lesbians and blacks in academia. Kinahan says that Sommers constructs in her book "a second type of feminism" called gender feminism which is supposedly a threat to traditional value systems; this demonstrates to Kinahan that Sommers is promoting a white, heterosexual and middle class value system, and that her book is advocating the continuation of "traditional hierarchies of morality, religion, and the nuclear family", as well as the stasis of traditional hierarchy in universities. Kinahan accuses Sommers of failing to consider the importance of the development of critical thinking in university students. Kinahan points out the contradiction in Sommers book which asserts that students are resistant to radical feminism, yet feminist indoctrination of students poses a great danger.[16]
Political scientist Ronnee Schreiber of San Diego State University expressed how the conservative and antifeminist Independent Women's Forum continues to use the book to portray feminists as scheming falsifiers of statistical data.[17]
Professors Dale Bauer and Katherine Rhoades writing about campus antifeminism in 2014 explained how Sommers book was mistaken in its assumptions about the way students approach challenging ideas presented to them in university. Sommers devoted a chapter to a negative depiction of a "feminist classroom" where the values of the teacher overwhelmed the students. Sommers advocated a classroom objectively free of values. Bauer and Rhoades contradict Sommers, describing how university students "always bring their own assumptions and values to class" and that they expect an active and lively exchange of ideas with the teacher and the other students. Bauer and Rhoades thought that the book's "most serious conceptual flaw" was the failure by Sommers to account for why women in society "have not always been treated fairly". Bauer and Rhoades said that they agreed with the assessment that Sommers wrote her book primarily to sell many copies, but that it would be a mistake to underestimate the threat that her book represented in its attempt to redefine feminism.[18]

help me with this line. and plz explain why "ari" is katakana.
Printable View
help me with this line. and plz explain why "ari" is katakana.
Without any other context, I would translate it as "They (?) said it was also possible to join the club for something called a trial period or something".
"Taiken Nyuubu" means joining a club just to try it out, such as when school first begins and the new students aren't sure what club to join.
There is no real "reason" why "ari" is in katakana, as far as I know.
Hope this helps :)
* アリ could be 有り in kanji, but it looks more formal.
* アリ could be あり in hiragana, but (1) hiragana letters are too difficult to read when you have too many; and (2) they look childish. (Childish <---- Children can't write Kanji well.)
* アリ in Katakana can replace kanji. A slang, a joke and a colloquial word could also be expressed in Katakana.
There may be more reasons. :-_-
