Mayor of 'The Big Apple': 'Nice Guy' Image Helps David N. Dinkins in Building Multi-Ethnic, Multiracial Coalition
Cheers, D. Michael, Ebony
MAYOR OF 'The Big Apple'
COURTLY, cautious, and unfailingly polite are the adjectives used most often to describe David Norman Dinkins, a 62-year-old Harlem resident. While these characteristics are not generally recognized as selling points in the rough-and-tumble world of New York (Total population, 7,072,000; Black population 1,694,000) politics, they are the very attributes that enabled Dinkins to sweep past Republican challenger Rudolph Giuliani to become New York's 106th mayor. His "nice guy" image attracted a multiethnic coalition (a "gorgeous mosaic," he calls it) of Black, Hispanic and White voters who had grown tired of the racial discord that has marred past elections.
Despite his victory, a grand jury probe into improprieties in Dinkins' stock holdings continues. His allies say the investigation is racially motivated.
Born in Trenton, N.J., Dinkins was reared by his mother and grandmother, who both worked as domestics to support the family (his parents divorced when he was 7). His father, William, still runs a real estate business in Trenton.
Known affectionately as "Dink" while growing up, Dinkins was class president (1943) at Trenton High School and graduated in the top 10 of his class, where he studied Latin and advanced math. After graduation in 1945 he tried to enter the Marine Corps, only to be told that the "Negro quota" was filled. He registred for the draft and joined the Army. After a stint there, he joined the Marines.
Within a year the war was over and Dinkins went to Howard University where he majored in math and graduated magna cum laude. At Howard, he was a mmber of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity and was dean of pledges during the initiation of Andrew Young, the former United Nations ambassador and former Atlanta mayor who hopes to become the next Georgia governor. …

As many parts of the country move into the dry season (some parts are already there; others have the opposite problem), it's a good time to consider xeriscaping principles in our gardens and landscapes.
What is xeriscaping? Simply stated, it's water-wise gardening. It's not just about the water we use (or don't) during times of drought. It also addresses our use of diminishing water supplies as demand — from population and housing growth, agriculture, industry (especially the natural gas industry) and, yes, drought — continue to tax finite water supplies. Xeriscaping is a way of continuing to have enjoyable landscapes in the face of less and more expensive water use.
The details of xeriscaping are encyclopedic. They're linked to local soil, native plant, and climactic factors. But the basic principles are simple, common-sense measures and are easy to apply almost anywhere. Here are the eight principles, with our comments, listed in David Salman and Cindy Bellinger's aptly titled and useful reference Waterwise Garden Care: Your Practical Guide published by High Country Gardens Publications.

Facebook and NETGEAR have teamed up to offer Facebook Wi-Fi to small businesses. According to the WSJ [2] , "Facebook Wi-Fi [3] is an application that enables merchants to provide free Internet access to their customers when they 'check in' at a business' Facebook Page." NETGEAR is integrating Facebook Wi-Fi into their premium line of wireless routers to allow them to be Facebook Wi-Fi ready right out of the box. The big news is that this partnership has made the hardware more affordable for SMBs (a significant price cut from the limited hardware that was Facebook Wi-Fi compatible.
How Most Coffee Shops Currently Provide Wi-Fi
As a frequent independent coffee shop visitor, I am familiar with the in-store Wi-Fi game. The typical scenario is you must first purchase an item (a small coffee will do). Upon purchase you then receive the code to access the Wi-Fi. It's a fair trade in my book. I give them $1.75 and I get a cup of coffee (hold the cream and sugar) and free use of their Wi-Fi. Everybody wins. But in an age where people spend a significant amount of time on Facebook, increasing your brand's visibility within Facebook is becoming more and more important.
How Facebook Wi-Fi Changes Everything
I am definitely one of the guilty ones who never check into locations I frequent…including the independent coffee shops I truly enjoy. It's just something I don't do. But if one of my favorite coffee shops jumped on the Facebook Wi-Fi bandwagon, I'd probably end up checking in (plus I'd probably still order my $1.75 coffee). Why? Because it's free and easy. Although I think it is very fair to have to purchase an item to gain access to their Wi-Fi, being able to walk in, sit down, check in and start browsing is even easier.
I Wish I Owned a Coffee Shop!
If I owned a coffee shop, I'd definitely get a NETGEAR router with Facebook Wi-Fi built in. Although I may lose a few bucks by not requiring customers to purchase something to use the Wi-Fi, Facebook check-ins are becoming much more valuable than a cup of coffee. And besides, how much advertising can you get for $1.75?

This place is the pits. By far the grossest, most unpleasant place I have ever been to. The staff were mutes. They did not make eye contact or acknowledge your presence unless you were holding a credit card. The grounds are a dump. The pool is filthy and unsafe. The playground consists of pieces from the dump and a few old tires. Everyone drinks and smokes ALL DAY. We were the only sober people walking around at noon. There is nothing to do here but drink. We thought of drinking the weekend away so we would be able to deal with this place but wanted to have our wits with us in case someone picked a fight with us or tried to steal our car. Don't go here, your sanity and life depends on it. - pookyellis

, I think a good little crafty idea would be to utilize the "last talked to" thing to look up information about the overworld last spoken to from a custom table [ link certain overworld sprites to a palette / sprite table ]. Then we could activate this by customizing the messagebox command to add a special message type that performs the function of type 4 [ wait until the user presses a to continue ] and displays the sprite. For scripts with no apparent "last spoken" you could also have a special command that sucks this information out of a variable which would also let you utilize this script for multiple mugshots rather easily.
Thoughts anybody?

WALLA WALLA, Wash. (AP) — A man serving a 41-year prison sentence for a double killing at Ferndale had another two years added to his sentence for a stabbing at the Washington state Penitentiary at Walla Walla.
Thirty-year-old Daniel E. Johnson was sentenced Monday in Walla Walla Superior Court on his conviction for third-degree assault. Authorities say he stabbed a fellow inmate who was talking on a phone Sept. 26 in a prison day room. Guards recovered the weapon, a sharpened steel rod wrapped with a cloth handle.
The Union-Bulletin reports (http://is.gd/zLLPuj ) Johnson was in prison for the 2009 beating deaths of his girlfriend and her infant son.

Senior high school students focus on their future college careers and feel the high pressures that come along with it, and Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer are no different.

Hanna is doing just fine on her college acceptances but finds out that she has been turned down for financial aid and turns to her dad to help.
Meanwhile, Aria and the girls concerns about Mike increase after an incident at the school blood drive.

MMA Fight at North Middle School "A Smash Hit"
Bunny Hawkersmith, owner of Bunny's MMA and president of the United Fighters Alliance who promoted the MMA Mixed Martial Arts event at North Middle School in Decherd on Saturday night, Nov. 7, said the event was a "smash hit."
"We had a full crowd of people that were more than satisfied," Hawkersmith said. "Everyone was congratulating me on how well organized and professionally run the show was. I've had call after call and people coming up to me everywhere I go, wanting to know when the next event is to be held. I am so pleased how well the show went.
People from all over the nation, as far away as California, competed. One competitor was an NFL football player with the Redskins, and Ray Mercer of the Boston Celtics was sitting in the crowd as well as the other five stars that were on the special guest appearance list.
Hawkersmith also said this event has led to other competitions for his fighters.
A promoter from Illinois, who promotes fights for Harrah's casinos in Las Vegas asked Hawkersmith about adding one of his fighters to his Vegas fight card at the beginning of the year.
"I was flattered to get such an offer," Hawkersmith said. "[The promoter] said our fighters were very professional, and he was really impressed for a show in such a small town to be as good as the other shows he has attended. I give all the credit to the vendors, photographers and video crews, my fighters, our sponsors, volunteers and the people of this county who came out and supported this event to make it a smash hit."
Hawkersmith said due to the success of Saturday's event he plans on hosting another fight sometime in the near future.
(Elizabethtown, KY) – After putting on an exciting night of fights in front of the largest crowd in Hardrock MMA history at Hardrock MMA 12: Night of Champions, Hardrock MMA will make history again as it hosts the first women's professional MMA fight in Kentucky at Hardrock MMA 13: The Girls Are Back.
The main event will feature a rematch between Hardrock MMA promoter and professional fighter Vanessa Bohleber-Higdon vs. Heather Corder. The pair's first match, as amateurs, ended with Vanessa scoring a win via referee stoppage due to ground and pound just 32 seconds into the first round.
Featured on the women's MMA reality series Fight Life, and training under Josh Johnson out of Etown BJJ and Judo, Bohleber-Higdon pulls double duty as both a promoter and professional fighter. "It's nice to be in the first women's professional fight in Kentucky," said Bohleber-Higdon. "I think it's great we're hosting the first women's professional fight. We've had a lot of pro fights on our cards lately and it puts us above the average promotion that puts on amateur fights here and there. I'm not taking Heather lightly. I'm prepared for anything, and even though I won the first one early, I'm not taking her lightly because it could go any way."
Sponsored by Heart Fight Gear, Heather Corder is looking forward to the rematch. "I think it's great being part of the first women's pro fight in Kentucky," said Corder. "I think if you have the chance, everybody should do it [fight MMA]. Women are just as tough as men. I like Vanessa, but once we get in the cage it's a different story. I have been hitting the gym everyday, twice a day, and my game has tightened up a lot." Read the rest of this entry »
World Championship Fighting today announced more fights for their September 26th show at the Shriners Auditorium in Wilmington, Mass.
Local 7 Iron Worker, and frequent WCF Fighter John Benoit takes yet another tough fight when he takes on American Top Team's Hitalo Machado. Benoit was very impressive in his recent win at WCF 7 over Damien Trites, and he looks to keep the train rolling against Machado. Machado makes his WCF debut, but is no stranger to the local fans. He's a Brazilian jiu-jitsu brown belt, and is also an accomplished striker. This highly anticipated fight is sure to please.
Damien Trites will make his return to WCF after his war with John Benoit when he takes on Noah Weisman. Noah was impressive in his pro debut with WCF, beating Steve Beck by submission in the first round. Trites will be a big step up in competition for him, but Weisman is looking to get in there with the very best fighters the WCF can give him. Trites is looking for a rematch with Benoit, and a win here could set that fight up.
Two WCF newcomers are set to face off at WCF 8 when Jonathan Sola takes on Jeremy Ross. Both have fought some of the best 155ers in New England, and win here could propel them into the top 10. Both fighters are well rounded, but their strength is their jiu-jitsu. A slick submission is to be expected in this one.
In what could be the fight of the night, Luis Felix takes on Chris Foster. Felix has great wrestling and heavy hands, and Foster is one of the best boxers in local MMA. Both fighters will look to win by knock out, and no matter who wins, this fight will be action backed from the opening bell.
What is MMA?
Mixed martial arts (MMA) is a full contact combat sport that allows a wide variety of fighting techniques, from a mixture of martial arts traditions and non-traditions, to be used in competitions. The rules allow the use of striking and grappling techniques, both while standing and on the ground. Such competitions allow martial artists of different backgrounds to compete.
Modern mixed martial arts competition emerged in American popular culture in 1993 with the founding of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, and enhanced by Japanese with their Pride Fighting Championships, from 1997 to 2006, exposing the world of MMA to the world. Originally organized with the intention of finding the most effective martial arts for real unarmed combat situations, competitors of various arts were pitted against one another with minimal rules for safety. In the following decade, MMA promoters adopted many additional rules aimed at increasing safety for competitors and to promote mainstream acceptance of the sport. The name mixed martial arts was coined by one of the developers of these rules, Jeff Blatnick, a former Greco-Roman wrestler and Olympic gold medalist. Following these changes, the sport has seen increased popularity with pay per view reach rivaling boxing and professional wrestling. Read the rest of this entry »

HUMBLE- Adam Scott came to the Houston Open starving for the stress of competition to prepare him for the Masters.
He got what he needed from fellow Australian Stuart Appleby.
Scott held off Appleby with a 6-under 66 on Sunday, saving par with a 50-foot putt on the 72nd hole after hitting his tee shot into the water.
Scott finished at 17 under, three strokes ahead of Appleby, the defending champion, and third-round leader Bubba Watson.
Scott said before the tournament that he was rusty after taking a month off. He tied for 61st at Doral and was pleasantly surprised how well his game held up under pressure this week heading into the Masters.
"It was good for me to play in the heat of the battle again," Scott said. "Just to know how to control your nerves will be good for me."
Playing together, Scott led Appleby by one stroke as they stood on the 18th tee, but Scott pulled his tee shot into the pond that lines the left side of the 488-yard hole, the course's most difficult.
Scott immediately had a flashback to the 2004 Players Championship, when he had a two-shot lead on the final day and pulled a 6-iron into the water on the 72nd hole.
"I don't know. Water on the left," Scott said. "It's not ideal for me, obviously."
He salvaged a winning bogey at Sawgrass and got away with it again Sunday.
Appleby drove into the fairway bunker, then immediately gave Scott a reprieve by hitting his approach into the water near the green.
"I knew what I had to do," Appleby said. "It's just a matter of you've got to do it. And I didn't get to do it."
Scott took his drop, hit his approach safely away from the water, then holed the par-saving putt. He pumped his fist, Tiger Woods-style, after the ball disappeared and the crowd roared.
"It was relief, along with elation," said Scott, who earned his first win since last year's Tour Championship. "I was pretty happy for it to be all over with, because it was looking a bit messy."

VOL. XXXV OCTOBER, 1931 No. 2
The publication committee and the editors disclaim responsibility for views expressed by
contributors to THE QUARTERLY
Did France and Spain delimit in 1762 their North American
possessions by fixing conventional eastern and western boundaries
for Louisiana, just before or when it was transferred by France
to Spain? Were the Mississippi and Rio Grande made the lim-
its of Louisiana by preliminary treaty in 1762 more secret than
the deed of transfer, which itself remained till 1764 in conceal-
ment ? The answer would bring further light to the much mooted
question, "Was Texas included in the Louisiana ceded in 1803 to
the United States ?"-a question answered affirmatively by many
of our early statesmen. Judge N. Beverly Tucker of Virginia
and Missouri narrates:
About 1762, just before the cession of Louisiana by France to
Spain the Rio Del Norte was established as the boundary by
treaty. The subsequent cession made that treaty of no conse-
quence, and it was forgotten. But meantime a copy had been fur-
nished the vice-regal government of Mexico where Branch Archer
told me, in 1833, it had been seen by many persons of his acquaint-
ance during the connexion between Texas and Mexico. .
Jos. M. White, about the same time assured me that a copy of the
article had been furnished him by the French Minister of foreign
affairs. . . . France if properly called upon, is bound to pro-
duce the treaty of boundary.'

A congressionally mandated panel says the United States isn't ready for a biological terrorist attack.
The Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation gives the Obama administration a failing grade for its efforts to prepare for and respond to a biological attack, such as the release of deadly viruses or bacteria.
Randy Larsen, the commission's executive director, says the poor preparation for the swine flu epidemic in 2009 is proof that the country is not positioned to respond to something more serious. Larsen points to the country running out of H1N1 vaccine despite a six-month warning from health officials that it would be potentially deadly.
Larsen says no one in the Obama administration has the lead for protecting the country against bioterrorism.

2EPISODE 2: "Unfullfilled Circle"
The episode begins where we see a nervous Lisa, Maggie and Milhouse talking to two police officers regarding the disappearance of Hattie Simpson (Bart's Daughter) and Aaron Van Houten (Maggie's son). The scene cuts to Hattie and Aaron as they're sitting at a park outside of large tent where a few dozen photographers are positioned by a makeshift fashion runway as women and men stroll by.
Felecia, who is taking pictures of Eric, is snapping photographs of her husband as he's modeling a business suit when her cellphone buzzes with an amber alert. Letting out a gasp, she reads it's Hattie and Aaron who are missing and runs up onto the runaway to get grab Eric's arm and drags him off into the crowd. Annoyed, Eric listens as Felecia shows him the alert. Just a few yards away, Aaron and Hattie are trying to see the models when they notice Eric and Felecia depart the crowd. Excited, they run up

NY fracking foes: will become lobby if required
ALBANY, N.Y. Artists Against Fracking say the group and supporter-celebrities, including Yoko Ono and Sean Lennon, haven't been told to register as lobbyists in their campaign to stop gas drilling in New York, but will if required to continue their cause.
A good-government advocate and two lobbying experts said Monday the state should review whether Artists Against Fracking and the celebrities should be registered as lobbyists. That would require disclosure of how much money they've raised and how it's been spent. The measure a way for the public to know who is influencing policy.
A spokesman for the group said it will register if required to.
The group and dozens of celebrities have opposed the hydraulic fracturing method of gas drilling that New York is considering for an economically depressed area upstate.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
Celebrities of music, stage and screen who are gaining attention for the effort to block New York from approving a method of gas drilling may soon be getting more attention than they bargained for - from state regulators.
Artists Against Fracking and nearly 200 entertainers connected with it aren't registered lobbyists, according to a search by The Associated Press of the database of the state Joint Commission on Public Ethics. State law is designed to disclose who is trying to influence government action, how much money they are spending and where the money's going.
The activists, among them Yoko Ono and actors Mark Ruffalo and Susan Sarandon, are trying to protect the environment from hydraulic fracturing, or fracking. The group says forcing water and chemicals deep into shale deposits to extract gas threatens drinking water and the environment.
The group's website implores, "Tell Governor Cuomo: Don't Frack New York."
"You spend money lobbying, you have to register," said David Grandeau, former executive director of the state lobbying commission and now an attorney representing lobbyists and clients. On Monday, after the AP article appeared, he added: "It's clearly lobbying" and said the commission "missed the boat."
A good-government advocate said the lobbying regulator, the Joint Commission on Public Ethics, should look into the case.
"When someone is trying to influence or change public opinion, there's always a concern if the public doesn't know exactly how much money they are spending to do that," said Barbara Bartoletti, of the League of Women Voters. "I don't know if they are splitting hairs between educating the public or lobbying."
The commission can't confirm or deny it will take on any case, spokesman John Milgrim said.
Ravi Batra, a former member of the commission board, called it an important issue.
"When celebrities get involved in influencing public opinion, it behooves everyone to make sure the law is followed to the letter," he said.
There's no public record of how much money Artists Against Fracking has spent, but its website contains links for visitors to make donations, which are directed to the Sustainable Markets Foundation. Although the foundation is an established charitable organization and its donations are recorded publicly, it isn't registered with New York as a lobbying client, either.
Under New York law, however, it appears Artists Against Fracking is required to be a registered lobbyist because the law hinges on spending over $5,000. The group hasn't filed lobbying reports, so the amount it has spent and what it was spent on isn't known publicly. Experts in Albany say the website and public events appear to have cost well over $5,000.
The group hasn't responded to requests for comment in the past two weeks or on Monday. The group's account executive at its public relations firm, Fenton of New York City, didn't respond to a request for comment.

Food-aceuticals: Drink - and Eat - to Your Health
Is the recipe for better health found in the pantry instead of the medicine cabinet?
By Jennifer Warner
Reviewed By Brunilda Nazario, MD
From omega-3 fatty acids to flavonoids, the ingredients in foods you eat every day may be potent weapons in the battle against disease.
Once-forbidden foods like chocolate, nuts, and wine made headlines in 2004 for their potentially healthy benefits, and new research suggests that the key to avoiding heart disease or cancer may be found in the cupboard rather than the medicine cabinet.
But the secret may not lie in a single wonder food. Instead, researchers say that variety may really be the spice of (long) life. To get your plate in order, WebMD asked the experts for their top picks from this year's newsmakers.
Flavonoids: What Makes Chocolate and Wine Good for You
The discovery of flavonoids and the bevy of heart-healthy benefits they possess has been a boon to wine and chocolate lovers.
The antioxidant-rich compounds found in the seeds and skins of plants, such as grapes, cocoa beans, and citrus fruits, first gained the attention of researchers in the early 1990s as a means of explaining the so-called French Paradox. Researchers proposed then that French people had lower rates of heart attacks because they drank moderate amounts of red wine with their meals.
Since then, more than 300 studies on grape flavonoids have shown that drinking red wine or grape juice may help blunt the artery-clogging effects of a fatty meal and reduce the risk of heart disease over the long-run.

Theory and Practice in the Study of Mesopotamian Domestic Space
Brusasco, Paolo, Antiquity
This project combines the analysis of spatial grammar of houses with a sophisticated integration of archaeological, ethnographic and literary evidence. Such an investigation can only be carried out where sufficient material--verbal and non-verbal--survives for analysis to be effective. Early literate societies represent unique archaeological contexts for such research in that archaeologists can recreate an image of an entire ancient town by combining archaeological and textual information. In Old Babylonian Ur (2025-1738 BC)--excavated before the war by the Joint Expedition (British Museum and the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania) to Mesopotamia under the direction of Sir Leonard Woolley there are extensively excavated residential quarters where it is possible to investigate social space and the role of material culture, and written archives which provide an important second source of information on family structures (Woolley & Mallowan 1976).
Here I introduce a new way of assessing the sociology of these residential areas. House plans and cuneiform texts are studied separately in order to test conclusions based on one type of evidence against those based on the other. This methodology integrates techniques derived from the social sciences with the use of ethnographic analogy, and compares these results with the ancient textual evidence. While a better understanding of Ur family sociology is achieved through this study, its results may also prove useful for the analysis of archaeological contexts which lack the written documentation.
The archaeological evidence
The city of Ur, situated in the very south of the modern country of Iraq, is more or less oval-shaped, measuring approximately 1200 by 800 metres, and covering about sixty hectares. Within the city walls Woolley found four main residential areas of the Old Babylonian period: the AH, EM, MS, and EH sites (Figure 1). The AH site, about 150 metres south-east of the temenos (seventh century BC wall), is the largest excavated area of domestic architecture and it measures some 8000 sq. m. Woolley unearthed fifty-two buildings that are crossed by four main streets (Figure 2). The EM site includes fifteen houses located on four streets, and scattered over 2900 sq. m. (Figure 3), while the MS and EH sites contain respectively the remains of five houses in the south-east corner of the temenos, and a row of seven buildings some 30 m east of EM (Figure 4).
The houses were built of mud bricks with baked brick used for the foundations. The plan of an "ideal house" seems to have included a central open courtyard, around which the rooms were grouped. There was a main living room where the dominant family resided, generally located on the side of the courtyard farthest from the front of the house, and the secondary living room inhabited by an additional family (Brusasco 2000). The main living room formed with the chapel and the archive room an independent suite, while the other loci (i.e. kitchen, stairways, lavatories, workrooms) opened directly onto the central courtyard. The domestic chapel, in which cult structures and the family burial-vault were located, served for both the cult of the human ancestors and the household gods.
The construction of space
While social approaches to archaeology and to the analysis of space stem from the late processual and structural tradition (Renfrew 1973), developments in post-processual, interpretive archaeology have determined the approach used here in the study of the society-space relation (Tilley 1993; Shanks & Hodder 1995). The main tenets of the interpretive position are that the role of agents actively using material culture and space needs to be considered, and that cultural meanings are often understood in terms of practice. The sociologist Anthony Giddens has developed an influential theory of social change known as structuration theory (1979). …

A censorship row escalated when judges of a literary prize quit over the national library's plans to destroy three children's books deemed to be pro-homosexual.
In a statement, the three judges of the non-fiction category of the biennial Singapore Literature Prize condemned a National Library Board (NLB) decision last week to pulp three titles that went against its "pro-family" stance.
"We condemn in the strongest terms NLB's decision to remove and destroy these books, given that it is responsible for the dissemination of information rather than its destruction," said T. Sasitharan, Romen Bose, and Robin Hemley.
They are prominent figures in Singapore's small but vocal arts and literary community. The Singapore Literature Prize is considered the most prestigious writing award.
The state-funded NLB last week confirmed that three titles would be destroyed following complaints by a parent and an internal review.
They include And Tango Makes Three – a true story about two male penguins in a New York zoo that raised a baby penguin – and The White Swan Express, which features children adopted by straight, gay, mixed-race and single parents.
The third book, Who's In My Family, discusses different types of families, including references to gay couples.
The decision to destroy the books was supported by Information Minister Yaacob Ibrahim, who said the NLB was "guided by community norms" which do not support teaching children about "alternative, non-traditional families".
Singaporean writers, however, slammed the NLB for partaking in "book burning" and censorship.
Some 400 people, including parents, gathered at a library branch on Sunday to read the banned books to their children as a show of protest.
A group of writers scheduled to speak at an NLB event on Sunday about humour also pulled out in protest.
In the statement yesterday, the three judges said the planned destruction of the books was "bigoted and sets a very worrying precedent that it is acceptable to discriminate against anyone who may hold differing values and opinions".
The move was "unbecoming of an institution entrusted to protect and preserve learning and literature and to provide accessibility to information", they added.
The books episode has sharpened the split between Singapore's religious conservatives and its growing gay-rights lobby. — AFP

The objects on stage are translated from their everyday uses into idealistic symbols. A chair, for example, is no longer just to sit on, but rather an image support and strength. This performance is visual music with a beginning, middle and an end.
Barton Wimble of the New York Daily News writes: "Perhaps a handful of times can a critic sit in a theatre and in the space of a mere hour see a performer change the entire course of an established art form, but that is precisely what happened when Daniel Stein opened the Dance Theatre Workshop's 'New Mime Series.'"
Sylvie Drake of the Los Angeles Times hails Timepiece as: "One of those rare revelatory experiences one waits for in the theatre."
Daniel Stein is Projects Director of The Dell'Arte International School of Physical Theatre where he also teaches "Generating New Material" and "Poetic Dynamics." After studying in the Professional Actors Training Program at Carnegie-Mellon University, Stein studied in Paris with Etienne Decroux, and started his professional career as an actor with the French National Theatre. His solo performances have toured in more than 25 countries, and he has taught master classes throughout the world at institutions such as Juilliard and The Institute of Dramatic Arts in Tokyo. Stein has received grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the United States/Japan Commission, the Pew Charitable Trust, and has been named a John Simon Guggenheim Fellow.

The Grays moved here in 1983. Three years later the city of Cleveland declared it a historic landmark. And then fans started knocking on the door.
Hattie Gray: Here we go, for the 150th time
Mhari Saito: Have you done this before?
Hattie: Yeah....
The house is no museum. The Grays raised their four children here. Visitors tromp through their rooms. Jerry Siegel's relatives visited from Florida once and told the Grays what they knew of Superman's origins.
Hattie Gray: This was supposed to have been Jerry's room right here.

Go veggie for a day
World Vegetarian Day is being held on Oct. 1, which is also the kickoff of vegetarian awareness month. Some of you may know that I'm an on-again/off-again vegetarian. I've had a couple of vegetarian stints in my life. I haven't eaten red meat for about 9 years, but I do currently eat poultry and fish on occasion. For the most part, I try to make a variety of vegetarian meals, but meat is sometimes a part of our diet. Wondering what the big deal is and why vegetarianism so important? Some of the Benefits of Vegetarianism are: • reducing the risk of major killers likeRead More →

The sister of Maurice Clemmons was taken into custody by police today at the conclusion of a hearing where two other women were arraigned on charges that they helped Clemmons after he killed four Lakewood police officers Sunday.
TACOMA — The sister of Maurice Clemmons was taken into custody by sheriff's deputies today at the conclusion of the arraignment for two other women charged with helping Clemmons after he killed four Lakewood police officers Sunday.
The new charges included an allegation that Clemmon's aunt possessed a handgun taken by Clemmons from one of the Lakewood officers.
It was not immediately clear why the sister, Latanya Clemmons, 34, was being held. But earlier this week she said police had searched her Tacoma home while she was gone, left a warrant on the table and taken cameras, her computer and paperwork.
Clemmons reacted calmly when she was led away, and told a relative not to worry.

Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer said Latanya Clemmons would be arrested, but didn't specify on what allegation. She was being questioned by detectives this afternoon.
The aunt, Letricia Nelson, 52, and Quiana Maylea Williams, 26, a friend of Clemmons, were charged Friday with providing transportation, medical treatment and medical supplies to Maurice Clemmons after he shot and killed the police officers.
Clemmons brought Nelson the officer's gun shortly after the shootings, saying he had taken it from one of the four officers he had killed, according to the charge. She put it into a shopping bag with bloody items, according to charging documents.
Clemmons then took the bag, the documents say. A handgun of a Lakewood officer was found in a front pocket of the sweat shirt Clemmons was wearing when a Seattle police officer shot and killed him Tuesday after a two-day manhunt.
Clemmons also had an older wound he received during an exchange of gunshots with Lakewood officers on Sunday.
Nelson was charged with six counts of rendering criminal assistance in the first degree and one count of possession of a stolen firearm. She pleaded not guilty and was ordered held on $1.5 million bail.
Williams was charged with five counts of first-degree rendering criminal assistance. She pleaded not guilty was ordered held on $1 million bail.
Prosecutors allege Nelson and Williams helped conceal Clemmons while he was on the run, and claim Nelson lied to police.
The two women were among six people friends and relatives of Clemmons who have been booked into jail this week on allegations they helped Clemmons after the killings.
Nelson helped Clemmons when he showed up at her home in the Algona-Pacific area shortly after Sunday's shootings, according to charging documents.
She gave Clemmons $60 and keys to a relative's car, the documents allege.
Clemmons told the two he was going to rest and heal, and that he wasn't done, the relative is quoted as telling a detective.
Nelson put the handgun from the Lakewood officer into the shopping bag before Clemmons left with two brothers who had brought him to Nelson's house, the documents say. The brothers, who are being held for helping Clemmons, took Clemmons to the Auburn Super Mall, triggering a series of movements to elude police.
The relative said when she told Nelson it "ain't right" not to call police, Nelson responded, "It ain't right, but family's more important," according to the documents.
On Monday and Tuesday, Nelson denied to a Tacoma police detective that she had seen or heard from Clemmons after the shootings, prosecutors allege. But when questioned Wednesday, she said her prior statements weren't true, the documents say.
After Clemmons left his aunt's house Williams bought peroxide, gauze and bandage material to treat Clemmons on Sunday, according to the charging documents.
Williams told detectives Clemmons had called her earlier Sunday and told her he had been shot and that he had killed an officer or officers, the documents allege. She said she met up with him and took him to her home, where she provided the medical treatment.
Prosecutors allege Williams drove Clemmons to the Leschi area in Seattle, where police missed Clemmons by minutes.

Cloyd rocked in Phillies' 7-1 loss to Braves
ATLANTA Ryan Howard decided he wanted to join his Phillies teammates for the final series of the season against the Braves. There wasn't much to see in the opener.
Rookie Tyler Cloyd (2-7) continued his September struggles by giving up seven runs in one-plus inning and the Phillies lost for the seventh time in eight games, 7-1.
Howard, who has been rehabbing his injured left knee in Clearwater, Fla., said it was important to him to finish the season with his teammates, even if he couldn't play.
"I just wanted to watch and cheer these guys on the rest of the way and hopefully try to end things on a good note and head into 2014 on a high," Howard said.
Cloyd had given up 17 runs in 13 innings in his previous three September starts, and the right-hander did not see a turnaround against the Braves. Cloyd gave up seven runs on eight hits and did not retire any of the first four batters in the second inning before being pulled.
"It was just bad. I wasn't executing any pitches and they were hitting the ball hard," Cloyd said. "I wouldn't say nothing was working, but everything was where they could hit it."
The decisive first began with Jason Heyward's home run on Cloyd's first pitch of the night. Elliot Johnson followed with a single, and Freddie Freeman doubled him home. Gattis then hit an RBI single, and scored on Chris Johnson's double. Jordan Schafer brought in the final run of the inning with an RBI single.
Gattis ended Cloyd's night with a two-run double in the second that scored Heyward and Elliot Johnson.
"Cloyd had a hard time with his first-pitch strikes and also had trouble with two strikes," Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg said. "They were still able to barrel balls up pretty good and before you know it, it was 7-0."
Jimmy Rollins went 3 for 4 for the Phillies. Heyward was the offensive star for the Braves with a career-high five hits, including three doubles in addition to his leadoff home run.
The win pulled the Braves even with the idle Cardinals at 94-65 for the best record in the National League with three games to play. The Braves won the season-series against the Cardinals and would win the NL's No. 1 seed if the teams finish tied.
"It is a big spot," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "We'll try to win tomorrow and keep guys healthy at the same time."
Braves catcher Bryan McCann left the game in the second inning with an adductor strain. Gonzalez said he thinks McCann will be OK and wanted to avoid having something small get worse.
After scoring just three runs in a three-game series loss to the Brewers, the Braves entered Thursday averaging 3.3 runs per game in September. They surpassed that in just six batters against the Phillies when Chris Johnson doubled home Evan Gattis to give the Braves a 4-0 lead in the first.
Braves rookie David Hale (1-0) picked up his first win in his second career start, going six innings while giving up one run and striking out five. The right-hander allowed six base runners in the first three innings, but settled down after that and cruised to the win. In two starts since getting called up from Triple-A, Hale has given up one run in 11 innings.
"It is amazing, especially to (get my first win) at home," said Hale, who grew up in nearby Marietta. "I was a little more relaxed, but still nervous. I just kept the ball down and it turned out all right."

Alzheimer's Videos Fall Short
Kuhn, Daniel, Aging Today
Hosted by Leeza Gibbons
The Family Guide to Alzheimer's Disease is a five-volume series available in DVD and VHS formats that is similar in content and style to the popular guidebook The 36-Hour Day, Third Edition (Baltimore, Md.: Johns Hopkins, 1999). The video series, produced by Life View Resources, Nashville, Tenn., may be useful for some families facing the middle stages of the disease, but it does not take into account the diversity of people with the disease and their families, who often are the main providers of care.
For newcomers to the disease, this series will overwhelm them with details about issues they may face later in the disease process. The probability that most of the people with Alzheimer's disease die before they reach the advanced stages is not considered. Moreover, the perspective of the key individual within the family, the person with the disease, is virtually ignored.
This series reinforces the stereotype that caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease is burdensome and that steps must be taken to minimize its toll on caregivers. This depressing theme is summed up in an alarming, inaccurate statement by one featured professional who asserts that 68% of caregivers die before the person with Alzheimer's disease for whom they are caring. The notion that caring for a loved one can be a life-affirming-albeit life-changing-endeavor is missing from this series.
Hosted by television personality Leeza Gibbons, whose mother and grandmother both had AIzheimer's disease, the series draws on interviews with family caregivers and professionals. Six women offer personal stories about caring for loved ones who have already died or have reached the later stages of the disease. A man caring for his wife who is in the middle stages of the disease does not get a fair amount of attention. Most of the family caregivers in the series relate how difficult it was to care for their relatives and offer advice on how to cope with a litany of problems. Particularly painful is watching and hearing one woman who is tearful throughout the five-part series as she reminisces about caring for her now-deceased grandmother. Only one woman in the series hints at the possibility that caregiving can be a growth experience.
The featured professionals include two physicians, a social worker, a nurse and a gerontologist, who generally reinforce the negative stereotypes associated with Alzheimer's disease and dementia caregiving. Although they offer helpful advice, their focus is limited for the most part to the middle stages of the disease. The message of these professionals to families is clear: Prepare and act to survive this relentless ordeal.
The five volumes of the series cover many of the same topics found in dozens of books and videos on Alzheimer's disease. Part one includes the medical aspects of Alzheimer's, such as symptoms, diagnosis, drug treatment and research. Surprisingly, one physician suggests trying estrogen and gingko biloba, both unproven remedies. Part two covers pharmacologic and psychosocial means to prevent or minimize challenging behaviors in those with the disease-behaviors such as combativeness, hallucinations and inappropriate sexual expression. …

Pilates and boxing? Ballet and cycling? All are great on their own, but many say they're even better together.
Several times a week XSport Fitness in Alexandria is packed with people "Piloxing" their way to good health. It's a unique, interval-based combination class of Pilates and boxing.
Sarah Covelli leads the class. She says crowds are drawn to it because it burns fat and increases your heart rate.
"You get the people that maybe like their mind body classes, but don't get enough cardio," explained Covelli. "Or they love their cardio but are kind of afraid to walk into a Pilates or yoga class."
It's those same kinds of people who are flocking to Revolve Fitness in Arlington for their signature Barre Ride - a hybrid of traditional spinning and ballet-barre inspired movements.
"We wanted to put those two together into one class where people could get a sweaty, heart-pumping workout," said Francina Segbefia, Barre Ride Instructor. "And then do the toning exercises after."
So far this class has been a hit. The Barre Ride touts a total body workout.
"It's meant for everyone, from beginners to advanced athletes," said Alexandria Gardner, Revolve Manager. "You have complete control over your resistance of the bike so whether you need to take breaks or turn it up, it's really meant to be for everybody."
Research shows cardio fitness helps protect against heart disease. It also improves mood, enhances energy, promotes sleep and manages weight. These are reasons why Sean Lynch says he'll continue to let his girlfriend drag him to class.
"You can tell after the first week or two that you are definitely starting to lose weight and feel a lot better," said Lynch.

Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears
Punk blues/soul musician Black Joe Lewis is apparently a man of few words, but then again, songs like his own "Bitch, I Love You" pretty much speak for themselves. The track, from his self-titled 2006 debut, marries Lewis's foul-mouthed man-done-wrong verses ("Come home late at night/Bitch, you know it just ain't right/Keep making Black Joe blue/Baby, I'm gonna beat the hell out of you") with a melody and arrangement reminiscent of an early James Brown track that culminates in a hilarious tirade — complete with a shout-out to his idol, Lightnin' Hopkins: "Fuck the mojo hand, I got the back of my hand, motherfucker!" But his love for blues and soul is also tempered by a passion for the early punk of Rocket From the Tombs and the Stooges, giving his own revivalist music an edge not found in the slick nü-soul of Amy Winehouse or even the funkier tracks of Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings. Backed by the seven-piece Honeybears, Lewis ups the ante considerably on his latest, throwing blasting Memphis-style horns and organ fills into the mix with his biting guitar licks.

Look, I marked this site with an overall rating of excellent not because the park itself is excellent (it's just okay), but because the value and convenience is definitely there.
Brush is a very small town in the middle of nowhere, Colorado. You would think that the town would maximize on revenue from the park...but they don't. They offer a really amazing service...first night free...thereafter, it's $20.
We stayed one night in September and were so grateful to have a place to plug in and escape the heat for the night.
The campground is directly across from their small fair grounds and the night we stayed the community was out for a local event. There was music in the air but it quieted down by around 9 or 10 in the evening. The trains ran all night, but hey...who complains when you can stay for free?
We were able to walk into town and get a bite to eat at a local sports bar. I wish I had written down the name. The people were friendly and because we didn't have to pay for the spot, we felt very generous with the server.
Overall, we would definitely stay here again if passing through. Thanks, Brush! - Ree Klein

This is a very basic City Park. The 1st night is FREE, $20 a nite after that. Near the grassy area of the park, near the park pool. Some 15 amp, mostly 30 amp & a few 50 (which were all taken by long terms while we were there). Safe area, and you can't beat the price if just passing through! - wdwrew
Jun 2013 - $10.00
.We came in early in the afternoon and barely fit in a spot. There are random 30 amp spots and random water access spots. Those are taken by construction workers who are semi-permanent. (One said they've been here for 2 months.) There are other random spots with household outlets. While we were here several other RV's like us (travelers) came through, but left after seeing no place to park. That is unfortunate because were it not for the construction workers who have set up long term, this would be a nice day or two stopover for traveling RV'ers. It appears that the city doesn't pay much attention either, since repairs were needed and we couldn't even find a form or envelope to leave payment. We'd stay here again on a one nighter, but will make sure we get here early enough in the afternoon to get the one or two spots open, and even that is a crap shoot. - marker82
