Fort Lee, N.J. - California had its "Carmageddon," complete with sequel. Now, New York could be staring at its own potential transportation disaster.
Officials at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey were hoping for the best Friday as they announced plans to close three of four lanes on the heavily traveled upper deck of the George Washington Bridge to replace sections of the steel beams that support the roadway.
The work is expected to last through the end of the year and will be performed during overnight hours - not that that will be any comfort to the estimated 20,000 vehicles that cross the span during those hours on weeknights, or the 50,000 that cross on weekend nights.
The bridge has two levels: Trucks are restricted to the upper level, which has four lanes in each direction. The lower level has three lanes in each direction and is not part of the current repair project. Crews will cut, remove and replace more than 600 deck panels - steel topped with asphalt - using two large cranes.
Delays of 45 to 60 minutes are expected, but that could be an optimistic assessment. A test run two weeks ago produced 90-minute-delays, albeit with no public notification, said Port Authority tunnels, bridges and terminals director Cedrick Fulton.
"There are going to be delays, no question about it," Fulton said. "We're trying to communicate with the public and urge them to change their driving habits. We're trying to push as many cars as possible down (to the lower level)."
About 300,000 vehicles per day cross the 82-year-old span, which carries Interstate 95 from northern New Jersey across upper Manhattan and northeast into Connecticut. The upper deck opened in 1931, and the lower deck was added in 1962.
About 7 percent of those vehicles travel in the overnight hours during the week and would be affected by the lane closures, Port Authority officials said Friday. That number rises to 17 percent on weekend nights.
The $82 million repair will replace the steel beams underlying the upper deck roadway, which were last replaced in the late 1970s. They were designed to have a 20-year life span, but tests every two years showed they had maintained their integrity, Fulton said. But in recent years, according to bridge chief structural engineer Bernard Yostpille, small cracks had begun to crop up with greater frequency, leading to increasing repairs. The bridge was never in danger from the cracks, said Andrea Giorgi Bocker, engineer of construction for the bridge.
The repairs are being funded by phased-in toll increases implemented in 2011 that ultimately will raise cash tolls from $8 to $15.
Fulton said one concern is that some motorists won't take the warnings seriously because a project last year to shore up a structure on the New York side of the bridge led to far shorter delays than were expected.
Two years ago, a weekend-long closure of a portion of Interstate 405 in Los Angeles was dubbed "Carmageddon" but didn't produce anything resembling the epic traffic jams that many feared. Another weekend closure last fall didn't produce "Carmageddon II," as many motorists stayed off the road.
The George Washington Bridge work is to begin Monday at 11 p.m. in the westbound lanes and will shift to the eastbound lanes the following Monday. The Port Authority plans to extend the hours gradually until the closures last from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. on weeknights and 11 p.m. to 9 a.m. on weekends.
Work schedules also will be tailored around the New York Yankees' home games in the Bronx, Port Authority officials said.

I have mixed feelings about pigments. They are a great value for the money and I bet are awsome if you press them (which I have not done yet). However they are messy and have quite a bit of fallout. So I have a love, hate relationship with pigments.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Oily, Tan, Warm

I love all the pigments!
Just don't like that I have to put them into sample jars
because if it tips over.... its gone! allll gone!
Age: 25-29
Skin: Dry, Fair-Medium, Cool

The price for me is very reasonable because they last literally for ever,I own some MAC pigments for 6-7 years and they are still full!!The range of shades it's not as big as the range of MAC eye shadows is but still is very satisfactory.They blend very easily,I also like the fact that I can use MAC pigments with so many ways(I mix some shades with my moisturizer or with my foundation,I mix other shades with a lip gloss,and I use others as a blush or a highlighter)They stay longer and they don't crease on me that much.I don't like the fact that some shades they go on very very sheer and I wish they were smaller and cheaper.I also hate the fact that when I use the pigments I have huge fall out issues

I am so happy I foudn these...I have 4 of them and love them all! I want more, but $19 isn't cheep. Good thing is that they last a long time.

Skin: Combination, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Straight, Fine

I like loose e/s, so in my opinion these are not that messy, but I understand why some people may hate it. I usually ue a damp brush, which avoids fly aways and make the pigments go on smoothly.
But I don�t find the staying power is so great - some colors crease, some of them don�t stay very long even when I use a damp brush or a base. But it is still better than some other loose products I�ve tried so far.
I think the price is great - if you buy the whole jar, it will last for ages. And the samples you can buy online are a great choice, too.
I only wish MAC would sell it in different sizes. Then I would buy all of them!
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Blond, Other, Fine

The pigments blend very well and create beautiful colors. I don't like the packaging. One must be really careful or the pigment can go all over the place!!!!
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Red, Wavy, Fine

i wanted so bad to get more MAC products after i got my first one in mauvism,but after trying some more of their pigment shadows..i think im going to stay with Splash. the colors are about the same but cheaper. hopefully ill have better luck with Too Faced (which ive been dieing to try).

GREAT product! I tried this years ago when I bought a MAC lot of makeup off ebay. She included a generous amount in Pink Bronze and I fell in loooove. It looks so gorgeous and lasts forever!!! Several months ago, I got a small container in Melon from a friend. I wear it over Bare Study and with some black eyeliner and the stuff ain't going anywhere!!! Remember, a little goes a long way. I have yet to actually buy a jar of pigment but I still gave it a cheap price rating since I believe a jar would last forever.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Blond, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I absolutely love these pigment products! They are excellent value for money and come in such a fantastic range of colours there is something there to suit everyone. In honesty they do take a bit of getting used to but with a bit of practice the results can be amazing!!! For best results, I use an eyeshadow base as this encourages the pigment to "stick" and therefore give a more dramatic result. Word of advice though - perhaps use these in the bathroom as the pigment does have a tendancy to get everywhere due to the "not so consumer friendly" packaging.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Very Oily, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Hazel
These are the BEST eyeshadows ever! Not only do the last for hours but the colors are so beautiful! They are very easy to apply and blend. I love these so much!

book details
Blind Love is Wilkie Collins's final novel. Although he did not live to complete the work, he left detailed plans for the last third of this absorbingly plotted novel which were faithfully executed by his colleague, the popular author Walter Besant. The novel is set during the Irish Land War of the early 1880s and tells the story of Iris Henley, an independent young woman who marries the "wild" Lord Harry Norland, a member of an Irish secret society, and becomes unhappily drawn into a conspiracy plot.
The Broadview edition of Blind Love includes a critical introduction and primary source materials that address the novel's focus on movements for Irish independence. Appendices include newspaper accounts of Ireland during the Land War and of the fraud case on which Collins based his story, articles reacting to Collins's sudden death, Punch cartoons depicting the English attitudes toward the Irish, and contemporary reviews.
"This edition of Collins's Blind Love offers the best of modern scholarship—it is impossible to praise it too much. Professors Bachman and Cox add considerably to Broadview's series of reasonably-priced fine scholarly editions." - A.D. Hutter, UCLA
Maria K. Bachman is Assistant Professor of English at Coastal Carolina University, Conway, South Carolina.
Don Richard Cox is Professor of English and Associate Dean of Arts and Sciences at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Both editors also co-edited Reality's Dark Light: The Sensational Wilkie Collins (University of Tennessee Press, 2003).

In recent years the Bucks public relations staff also has included Matt Wessel, Adam Rose, Betsy Golomski, Nikki Carnemolla, Shaun Hickombottom, Brett Winkler and Cherome Owens.

text: First off, let me say that this blog article was NOT meant as a put down to all women as I love women and respect the sanctity of womanhood but as you all know I can be very blunt and somewhat raw when needed. That being said, we all know that there are women who are not living up to their divine position in the world and utilize their womanly assets both physical and spiritual for their own advantage not caring about the broken men and emotional carnage left behind in such a cold hearted fashion. I call them Predatory Jezebels.

Feederbot (DIY Filament Rack)
by muckychris, published
Thing Info
I made a filament rack and wanted to share the parts list and diagram so people could make their own. I spent a long while testing with spool sizes from all the usual suspects and this setup seems to work well with all.
The 3/4" pvc pipe (actual outer diameter 1" or 27mm) fits the smaller 33mm spools (Octave, MatterHackers) and the larger 52mm spools (MBI, Protoparadigm).
One Note:
I sell this rack fully assembled and it includes the red threader cap that cleans the filament in some of the photos. Unfortunately since that part is patented I can't share it here. (http://www.feederbot.com)
You can use hardware store 3/4"PVC Schedule 40 pipe.
I use furniture grade PVC pipe - it's much more expensive but the high gloss finish produces very little friction when the spools are doing their thing.
I suggest dry fitting all pieces THEN use PVC pipe cement on all parts.
The cement dries in 30 seconds - so be careful with this step.
In total you will need 1 x 10' length 3/4" PVC pipe cut down to:
1 x 15" (front foot)
1 x 10"
2 x 8"
4 x 7"
2 x 6"
2 x 5"
6 x 4" (5 of these are the spindles that the spools hang on)
2 x 1.5"
4 x 3-way elbow
5 x tee
1 x cross
3 x 90 degree elbows
5 end caps

Do you have any plans to sell just the filament cleaning system? I am perfectly capable of assembling the PVC, but it sounds like a great addon!

This salad was so delicious! My photo does not come close to doing it justice. The flavor/texture combo is outstanding. Crunchy toasted walnuts, sweet spicy basil, and sharp yummy gorgonzola, with my favorite salad dressing of sweet tangy balsamic drizzled over the top. You might notice the absence of a chicken breast in my photo. I had a beautiful chicken breast cooked off and ready to slice when I went to work this morning. DS stayed home from school, chicken breast disappeared. Do you think there is a connection? ;) Thanks for sharing Sue, all 3 of your recipes I tried for *PAC Spring 2008* were amazing! ~Brenda

Salas jigs have been around since the early nineteen fifties. These world famous jigs have been used to hook fish everywhere. Salas jigs specialize in catching yellowtail seabass, tuna, barracuda, skipjack, marlin, bonita, albacore, wahoo etc. The Salas 6X Jr jig is a main staple of any fishing tackle box and the salas 6X Jr has so many applications that you really shouldn't be without them.
I have personally fished these Salas 6X Jr Lures and I honestly don't go saltwater fishing without them. They are just so versatile, they swim amazingly and the fish just love them.
The Salas 6X Jr lure is 4.5 inches long and weighs 4.5 ounces and comes with a treble hook.

Steve Magoffin took his tally of victims in two LV= County Championship games against Somerset this season to 20 as Sussex completed an emphatic nine-wicket win inside three days to go top of Division One.
It took the visitors just 22 minutes to polish off the last three wickets at Taunton as Somerset were bowled out for 209 in their second innings, Magoffin taking two for figures of 4-36.
That gave the 33-year-old Queenslander a match tally of 8-101 to follow the amazing 12-31 he claimed in the reverse fixture at Horsham in May.
A victory target of 91 was never likely to test Sussex, who eased to victory in 19.4 overs before lunch, Chris Nash leading the way with an unbeaten 61.
Somerset, facing a relegation battle following their second-placed finish last summer, took only four points from the match, while Sussex boosted their title challenge with 23.
Any hopes the hosts had of turning the game around from an overnight position of 197 for seven - 78 runs ahead - were dented with the fifth ball of the day as Alfonso Thomas chipped Magoffin to short mid-on.
Everything then rested on Peter Trego. But, having moved to 16, the powerful all-rounder edged an attempted cut off Chris Jordan and gave wicketkeeper Ben Brown his ninth catch of the match.
Last pair Steve Kirby and Jamie Overton were able to add only three before the latter was bowled by Magoffin and spectators in the sparse crowd resigned themselves to a short day.
Sussex only needed to make a solid start to clinch victory. They were given that by openers Nash and Luke Wells, who took the total to 40 inside nine overs before the latter was caught at third slip off Kirby.
First-innings centurion Michael Yardy and Nash, who captained the side over the first two days in the absence of Ed Joyce, saw Sussex to their target.
Joyce and Somerset spinner George Dockrell joined the game today after international duty with Ireland, nominated players Matt Machan and Craig Meschede dropping out.
Joyce did not bat while there was only the ignominy of being hit for two straight sixes by Nash for Dockrell, the second to finish the game.

Group EffectsSuppose we need multiple effects for controls. We can achieve this by grouping the effects.If you see in XAML behind, we have this:Let's see how we can group multiple effects.Let's say we need DropShadow as well as OuterGlow Bitmap effect for a TextBlock then how can we achieve this!As you see in above XAML display, we have both effects with different colors.Like this you can do effect combinations based on your imagination!Effect When Event is TriggeredAn effect can be triggered by an event, such as MouseOver, Focus, etc.Let's have two triggers for two different controls, first one will be for image when we MouseOver the Image would have OuterGlow and the second one will be for a Focused and it would have OuterGlow effect.Let's do it!And to apply the styles use as following:Now we can have the following effects when MouseOver or Focus for respective controls.Hope this article helps.

There, in 2005, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), after publishing volumes of documents, conducting scores of hearings, and processing thousands of comments, agreed to issue the most carefully circumscribed oil and gas leases ever—less than one-tenth of one percent of the total land area might be disturbed. Even that was too much for environmental groups; they sued. Then, one year ago, the New Mexico federal district court upheld BLM's leasing plan; however, the court added a kicker: before issuing any leases, the BLM must prepare yet another EIS. That the court's ruling conflicts with rulings by the Tenth and the Ninth Circuit, which had moderated its views somewhat in 2006, was irrelevant.
The Independent Petroleum Association of New Mexico (IPANM), which had intervened to ensure that the federal government defends its actions, appealed to the Tenth Circuit, as did the federal government. Then, less than a month ago, the federal government withdrew its appeal! As usual, Interior Department officials say Justice Department lawyers are calling the shots; the lawyers claim the clients are in control. Regardless, IPANM will fight on, alone, in order to take this precedent-setting matter all the way to the Supreme Court. As was the case 20 years ago, lawyers for the Justice Department will not be there!

After co-founding Suite 303 in the Chelsea Hotel in the early nineties, Texas native Armando Corral settled into this sunny, hair-healing salon on the third floor of a meatpacking-district townhouse across from Pastis. The vibe is modern, but exposed overhead beams and two tiny fireplaces lend touches of old New York. The space is intimate, with four stylists' stations in addition to Corral's, which is separated from the rest by a curtain of beads and includes a view of Little West 12th Street. The prep work is a personalized, strand-pampering affair, beginning with all-natural essential-oil treatments blended according to hair texture. Ingredients like aloe vera and lavender protect damaged strands and "detoxify" the scalp, and a cleansing mud, avocado, or olive-butter mask removes impurities. Afterward, a purifying scrub with ecofriendly Davines shampoo and conditioner concludes with a firm scalp massage. Corral's clientele of see-and-be-seen downtowners (Edie Falco among them) swear by his easy-to-style long, layered cutsthink Carmela Soprano during her unabashed adulterous phaseas well as his deft work with curls.

--Jan. 24 SOLD OUT--
Concert-Lecture by Trevor Stephenson
1855 Bösendorfer Concert Grand Piano
Music of Chopin, Beethoven, Brahms,
Debussy & Schönberg
Sunday afternoon, January 24 at 3 pm
Over the past two years I have been rebuilding a magnificent 1855 Viennese concert grand piano made by Bösendorfer. This is one of the last instruments whose manufacture was overseen by the company's founder of the company, Ignaz Bösendorfer (1796-1859), who established the firm in 1828. It has a classic prell-mechanik Viennese action--which flicks the hammers toward the strings (as opposed to the modern action which drives the hammers)--which gives the tone great immediacy and presence. Though massive and heavily strung, with tensions approaching those of the modern piano, this instrument has no metal plate to alleviate the tension of the strings, but relies upon an ingenious wooden frame design. The resonance of the sound is thus entirely carried by the wood and the result is a dark, intense and very clear-pitched tone that I find absolutely fascinating for the music of the composers we'll hear on this program. I'll also talk about the process of rebuilding this instrument: re-stringing with 19th-c. replica wire, re-felting the hammers, replacing the hitchpin rail in the bass, having iron-wound bass strings manufactured, etc.
Classes start this coming Monday,
January 25!
Piano Music of Beethoven & Chopin
Five classes: January 25-February 22
Instruments: 18th-c. fortepiano, 19th-c. Victorian parlor-grand piano, 19th-c. Victorian upright piano, c. 1855 Viennese concert grand piano (Bösendorfer)
Topics: Tempo, tempo rubato, touch, articulation, phrase groupings, fingering, pedaling, tuning and temperament. Accounts of how Chopin and Beethoven taught and played. Correspondence between historical aesthetics and construction techniques used in making fortepianos and 19th-c. pianos.
This winter I'll be teaching a five-part course on the Piano Music of Beethoven & Chopin. The 90-minute classes (6-7:30 pm) will run on five consecutive Monday evenings from January 25 through February 22. All classes will be held at my home-studio (5729 Forsythia Place, Madison WI 53705). Reading knowledge of music is suggested. Enrollment for the course is $135. Class size limited to 20 students. Please contact me if you'd like to attend.

Definition of defensive end in English:
nounAmerican Football
Either of the two defensive players positioned at the end of the line of the scrimmage.
Example sentences
- In its basic formation, the defense crowds the line of scrimmage with six players: a nose tackle, two defensive ends, two linebackers and a rush end.
- Premier cornerbacks and defensive ends are too valuable to cut loose, even when injuries are a concern.
- Even there, however, some players - usually defensive ends - get the chance to show off their ability to mash an opponent.

An APM-commissioned survey found that, although 88% of project professionals felt that CPD activities added value to their work, nearly half, 42%, reported that they were either not given or were unsure of the opportunities to undertake training or development activities while at work. Furthermore, the effectiveness of CPD – in both performance and monetary terms – was rarely monitored or reviewed. Asked to rate their...

By Leigh Thomas
PARIS (Reuters) - France's beleaguered corporate sector saw business pull back further in April, two surveys showed on Tuesday, although one suggested that the worst of the downturn may be over.
In a rare positive sign for the euro zone's No. 2 economy, a survey of purchasing managers produced a much less bleak reading for business activity than expected, even though the INSEE official statistics agency found business morale had worsened.
Data compiler Markit said its preliminary composite purchasing managers' index, covering activity in services and manufacturing, rose to 44.2, from a four-year low of 41.9 in March.
Despite the sharp improvement, the index remained well below the key 50 point threshold dividing expansions in activity from contractions.
The service sector, which has gone through a particularly deep slump in recent months, saw its index jump to a four-month high of 44.1 from 41.3 in March, confounding economists' average estimate for a reading of 42.0. The sector accounts for more than half of French economic activity.
The manufacturing sector, which has shown signs of stabilising in recent months, saw a more measured improvement, rising to 44.4 from 44.0, slightly better than expectations for 44.3. Manufacturing makes up roughly 16 percent of the economy.
In contrast, the INSEE survey showed overall business sentiment fell to 84 in April, down from 88 in March and hitting its lowest level since August 2009.
The survey's widely watched industry morale index fell to 88, its lowest level since October 2009 and short of an average of economists' expectations for it to remain unchanged at 90.
"April surveys are all pointing to a weak beginning of the second quarter of 2013 after a first quarter that is not likely to be better than the last one of 2012, when the economy contracted," said ING economist Julien Manceaux.
"Therefore, it becomes hard to believe in a positive GDP growth figure for 2013," he added.
With the weakest profit margins in the euro zone, French corporate confidence has fallen steadily, reaching levels not seen since the 2008-2009 financial crisis as unemployment and austerity sap consumer and business demand.
Against that backdrop, economists say France will be lucky if its economy manages the 0.1 percent growth forecast by the government, estimating on average a contraction of the order of 0.2 percent.
Nonetheless, the improvement indicated in the PMI survey fuelled hopes that French firms may be turning the corner, especially in the services sector, where panelists have begun expecting business to grow.
"They're seeing obviously very weak demand and thinking it can't get any worse, surely it will get better," said Markit chief economist Chris Williamson.
Firms reported that new orders had fallen at the slowest pace in eight months, while service providers began in April to anticipate that business will pick up in the next 12 months.
Despite the improvement in the overall PMI figures, firms reported that they had trimmed staffing levels at a faster pace.
"There is really very little sight of either manufacturing or services returning to a state where demand in output is sufficient to start creating more jobs," Williamson said.
The unemployment rate has risen to a more than 13-year-high of 10.6 percent and monthly jobless claims due on Thursday will likely show a new record has been reached.

Ok without being biased working for Benefit i genuinely love Jiffy Tan. I have light tanned skin anyway and this really enhances it so i look super tanned. I have had no problems with it streakin whatsoever and it s rather orangey but im one of those girls that likes the orangey tan colour. Not forgetting the pretty golden sparkles
Age: 30-35

Did not like at all. Cute package, (which was 80% of the reason I felt I needed it). I have golden skin and this does nothing to enhance my tan, when I am paler it looks really, really un-natural. The scent didn't really bother me, but the many fake sparkles did, ( especially outdoors) and the color was very orangy. Like others mention, it is tricky to blend. Not a healthy color on me personally.
Would never reccomend.

I agree with a lot of the other reviews. This gel is a great idea--a temporary tan for the body, more like a stain than a makeup like DuWop's version--but it failed to meet my expectations. The scent is pretty bad, the color isn't very natural, it streaks like crazy and stained my palms. I can still get it to work and look decent, but it takes a lot of work which in my opinion just isn't worth it. Not the worst, but not something I feel the need to bother using.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair, Not Sure

so, first off, this product is *not* a self-tanner...its a liquid-like (consistency like your typical lotion) bronzer for your body. it gives instant color upon application and washes off with soap and water.
personally, my pros were:
loved the little silvery sparkles that gave me a nice (not over the top) glow to my bod.
didnt break me out
did indeed wash off with soap and water-even the really concentrated stuff which was on my hands from rubbing it on
the cons:
smelled gross...something like plastic or...clay?
streaked like mad-even with careful blending...and if you ended up trying to blend to much, the product would scrape up into little balls on the skin
the color was not anywhere close to being natural. it was either muddy or orangey...no happy medium continued >>

The best tanner!!specially that it is smelling like roses,like benetint!!It makes my fair skin look good!!looove it =O)

this product did not meet my expectations. i had read many reviews on here first and it sounded really great as a bronzing gel and it is, however, i found that the colour doesnt last long and i didnt like the consistancy or the colour that it gave. on the upside, if you need a quick bronzing in the summertime without the stress of self tanning, then go for this!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Tan, Warm

A truly wonderful product! I USED to tan, and after much consideration, I've come to the conclusion that the instant gratification of tanning is NOT worth it in the long run. With that said, I have been searching for various products to give me a bronzed glow without the UV damage. I use this lotion (it's a rather runny lotion) on my face, arms, etc. It has a HINT of shimmer, but nothing obvious, and it's honestly kinda orange based. That's okay for my skintone though since my skin has the slightest bit of orange-yellowness to it. I could definitely see where this would be a horrible color for some skintones (cooler fairer skintones). It stays on pretty well (until I shower or wash my hands), and I have not had any problems with it transferring onto clothing. HOwever, I have not really worn this much during warmer weather, so I'm sure if I were to sweat, that might be an issue. It does have a slight scent to it, and I'm terrible at describing scents.. let's just say it's not offensive and fades quickly. It's more of a floral scent. It comes in a large bottle, and it can be sheered out very easily and it also can be built up for a darker color quite easily. BE WARNED THOUGH! Be sure to wash your palms/fingers very soon after you use it, otherwise they'll be stained for a while =P!! continued >>

Whenever I need a quick glow, hello Jiffy tan! This stuff is basically a spray tan in a bottle. It goes on even, the colour is natural, and at the end of the day you just wash it off. The sparkles are nice, they aren't BLING BLING, more of a soft shimmer. It looks dark in the tube- but don't worry it goes on a lot less scary! I would repurchase!
Age: 30-35
Skin: Normal, Other, Not Sure

Super product for girls on the go. No waiting, just perfectly natural (except for the pretty gold sparkles), instantaneous color whenever, wherever you need it.
I love you Jiffy Tan.

This stuff gave me really nice results. If you go by a Benefit counter at the mall apply some to the back of one hand and compare. This helped in my decision to buy. I love the shimmer the smell and how it looks on me. During the summer my skin gets dry patches so when I tan, those patches are more noticable. Jiffy tan helps even that out. The price isn't bad either.

A few years ago, while creating an ASP.NET web site, I decided to add a gradient border to "sex up" the look of the site. Using a sophisticated image editing program, I created a small gradient image. I made sure the ending color of the gradient matched the color of the body in the target page. Here it is:

21:0927(108)AR - Justice, Bureau of Prisons, Federal Correctional Institution, Lexington, Ky. and AFGE, Local 817 -- 1986 FLRAdec AR
[ v21 p927 ]
The decision of the Authority follows:
21 FLRA No. 108 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, BUREAU OF PRISONS, FEDERAL CORRECTIONAL INSTITUTION, LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY Activity and AMERICAN FEDERATION OF GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, LOCAL 817 Union Case No. 0-AR-1025 DECISION I. STATEMENT OF THE CASE This matter is before the Authority on exceptions to the award of Arbitrator John J. Murphy filed by the Department of Justice (the Agency) under section 7122(a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute and part 2425 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations. The Office of Personnel Management filed a brief as an amicus curiae. II. BACKGROUND AND ARBITRATOR'S AWARD The grievant alleged that her performance evaluation of "fully successful" was erroneous and that as a result she was not selected for certain GS-8 positions for which she competed. The Arbitrator determined that the grievant's evaluation for the 1983-1984 appraisal period was substantially defective because it did not include input from the unit manager who acted as her supervisor during nine of the twelve months covered by the evaluation. However, he found that although the grievant's rating would probably have been higher if the evaluation had been conducted properly, there was no basis upon which he could determine the actual rating. The Arbitrator therefore concluded that he was unable to make a finding that "but for" the error the grievant would have been promoted to GS-8 in June 1984 rather than May 1985, and that he was unable to award the grievant a retroactive promotion. The Arbitrator, noting that the grievant had subsequently been promoted to GS-8, determined that an appropriate remedy for earlier deficiencies in the process of rating the grievant would be the granting of preferential treatment for promotion to GS-9 and made the following award: The grievance is granted to the extent the Grievant shall be given priority placement for the next promotion to a GS-9 level at the Federal Correctional Institution in Lexington, Kentucky, that occurs after the Grievant has had at least one year in the GS-8 grade. III. EXCEPTIONS In its exception, the Agency contends that the award is contrary to section 7106(a)(2)(C) of the Statute because it requires "placement" of the grievant in a GS-9 position and therefore negates management's right to make a selection for appointment to such a position from any other appropriate source. The Agency further contends that if the Arbitrator directed that the grievant be given priority consideration for promotion to GS-9, the award is contrary to Federal Personnel Manual (FPM) chapter 335. In support of this contention the Agency argues that according priority consideration to the grievant for a GS-9 position would be inappropriate and contrary to the intent of FPM chapter 335. The Agency acknowledges that under FPM chapter 335, Appendix A-4, /*/ agencies have broad discretion to use priority consideration to remedy errors in promotion actions. However, the Agency argues that priority consideration is a limited exception to the merit promotion process and that the intent of the FPM provision is to give an employee who has been erroneously not selected or not properly considered for promotion, consideration ahead of others only for another position at the same grade level. In its amicus curiae submission, the Office of Personnel Management agrees with the Agency's interpretation of FPM chapter 335. IV. ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSIONS The Authority finds that the decision on the issue of whether the Arbitrator's award is deficient as the Agency alleges depends on the meaning of the word "placement." If "placement" means selection, the Agency is correct in its contention that the award is contrary to section 7106(a)(2)(C) of the Statute. It is well established that management's right to make the actual selection for an appointment can only be abridged if the arbitrator finds a direct connection between improper agency action and the failure of a specific employee to be selected. Office of the Secretary, U.S. Department of Transportation and American Federation of Government Employees, Local 3313, AFL-CIO, 17 FLRA 54 (1985). The Arbitrator did not find any connection whatsoever between the Agency's improper action and the nonselection of the grievant for any GS-9 position. Rather, the Arbitrator specifically declined to even make a finding that but for the improper evaluation, the grievant would have been selected for a GS-8 position. Consequently, as the Arbitrator correctly recognized, there was no legal basis for ordering a retroactive promotion to GS-8, and there is likewise no legal basis for ordering the selection of the grievant for a GS-9 position. The Authority therefore concludes that the Arbitrator's award, to the extent it directs placement of the grievant in a GS-9 position, is contrary to management's right to make selections for appointment under section 7106(a)(2)(C) of the Statute. If, however, "priority placement" means "priority consideration," the Agency has failed to establish that the award is deficient. In the typical situation where an aggrieved employee has been wrongfully denied the consideration or process to which the employee was entitled in a promotion action, and the employee has not yet been promoted when the grievance is considered, the Authority has recognized that an appropriate remedy under Appendix A-4c(2) of FPM chapter 335 is to direct that the employee be granted priority consideration for promotion to the next available higher-graded position for which the employee is qualified. E.g., Local R4-97, National Association of Government Employees and Naval Mine Engineering Facility, Yorktown, Virginia, 5 FLRA 452, 456 (1981). However, as the Agency acknowledges, FPM chapter 335 does not expressly limit the remedy of priority consideration to those typical situations. Specifically, the FPM does not prohibit priority consideration as a remedy in circumstances such as here involved. Rather, as the Agency further acknowledges, Appendix A-4 provides broad discretion in the use of priority consideration as a corrective action. In this case, it is clear that the Arbitrator, consistent with Appendix A-4, based his determination that priority treatment for a GS-9 vacancy was warranted to remedy the violation found on the facts, circumstances, rights and interests involved. Furthermore, it is well established that arbitrators have considerable latitude in fashioning remedies in disputes. Veterans Administration Hospital, Newington, Connecticut and National Association of Government Employees, Local R1-109, 5 FLRA 64 (1981). The Authority therefore concludes that the Agency has failed to establish that an award of priority consideratio
