Just love these guys! They do a great job on my windows and blinds. Would recommend them to others.
Have been using Window Works for 5+ years, go with what you know and like! They take care of all my window cleaning, pressure washing my house and driveway and putting up my Christmas lights. I know I can get the same service every time.
Use them, like them, recommend them. Good service and follow up.
Window Works comes to my house twice a year to clean my windows and blinds. They do a great job and never disappoint. I've had the same window cleaner come back time and time again, so I've gotten to know him and he always checks on my gutters as well. I would recommend them to others, I already have!
We're really happy with Window Works and have used their services for years. Great service and reasonable rates.
Window Works has the most friendly customer service representatives. The work they did in my home was exceptional and the follow up phone call was unexpected and appreciated! Thank you Window Works.
Great company to deal with. They came when they said they would and were very courteous and professional. The windows have never looked so clean and we've lived here for 10 years and have had them cleaned elsewhere before. I will definately be calling you back for next time. Thanks
I have been using Window Works for many years and every time I call I feel like I'm talking to a friend not a business. They are very polite and professional and when I scheduled any of my services through Window Works, they always give me a solution and explain every detail I need to know. The technicians are uniformed and very polite, professional with the work and fully detailed in their work. I will always refer my friends, family and neighbours. Thank you for everything. ;-)
I installed Gutter Filter on my home two years ago and since then I haven't had to worry about my gutter getting clogged, or that water will overflow out of them. I feel that I have a piece of mind knowing that it has a lifetime warranty. To anyone who had problems with their gutters- I highly recommend this product.
Window Works came out to clean my windows and they did a really good job. They arrived on-time and uniform. My windows have never been cleaner. I will definitely be using you again. Thank you so much!!!!

UPDATE: "The Flash" Hasn't Cast Savitar, Says Berlanti
TV, Comic Books
Conventions | After bringing in a profit of almost $1 million in 2014, Wizard World took a hard swing in the other direction last year with a loss of $4.3 million, with about half the shortfall coming in the fourth quarter. At least part of the reason seems to be simple math: Per-show revenues were down, costs were up. In addition, Wizard's share in ConTV was a money-loser, to the tune of $1.3 million; Wizard has reduced its stake in the joint venture with Cinedigm. On the upside, its subscription box service has done well, netting $48,000. It's possible that the North American convention market is being saturated, and Wizard is responding by cutting back from 25 shows in 2015 to 19 this year. [ICv2]
Comics | Writer Kurtis Wiebe announced that, "after long consideration," he's placing his acclaimed Image Comics fantasy series Rat Queens on hiatus. [Twitter]
Publishing | Papercutz, which has had an extremely successful program of LEGO graphic novels based on the Bionicle, Ninjago and Legends of Chima properties, is losing that license to Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, which will have its own graphic novels in bookstores by the end of this year. Papercutz reveals it will continue to publish Bionicle and Ninjago through the end of this year, and Legends of Chima through mid-2016. [Publishers Weekly, ICv2]
Passings | Fred Fredericks, who drew the Mandrake the Magician comic strip from 1965 to 2013, has died. In addition to his daily newspaper work, Fredericks drew comics for Western Publishing and Marvel. [ComicMix]
Legal | Police interrupted a launch event for Malaysian cartoonist Zunar's latest book, claiming he didn't have a proper permit. The book, ROS in Kangkongland, makes fun of the Malaysian prime minister's wife. Zunar tweeted from the event that 20 officers had shown up. "It is ridiculous to have 20 police personnel interfere in this event. This book is not even banned, I don't even know what offence I have committed," he said. In the end he shut down the event but told attendees they could order the books online. Zunar is scheduled to speak at the United Nations this week on the topic of freedom of speech. [The Malaysian Insider]
Crime | Artist and collector Jim Wheelock talks about the loss of his comics collection, which was stolen from a storage unit in Brattleboro, Vermont: "I remember where I was and what I was doing when I bought or read many of [the comic books]. Later, when I worked in the financially rickety world of a freelance artist, knowing the books were in Vermont gave me a sense of security, a retirement nest egg. This is what the culprit robbed me of." Vermont-based cartoonists James Kochalka and Harry Bliss weigh in on what such a loss would mean. Wheelock's thousands of comics included extensive runs of The Incredible Hulk, The Avengers, The Amazing Spider-Man, Daredevil and The Fantastic Four, in some cases beginning from the first issues. [Seven Days]
Publishing | Abraham Riesman looks at the revival of Valiant, which was once the third-largest comics publisher in the United States and now, under new management, aspires to reclaim that position. The article covers the rise and fall of the original company, its rescue by now-CEO Dinesh Shamdasani, and the strategy the new Valiant has used to quickly build an audience for a different type of superhero comic. [Vulture]
Conventions | San Diego officials had to do some shuffling to accommodate the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, which will be played in the city in 2016, but they didn't move Comic-Con International, which is only a few days later. "Their attendees are such a unique group that they don't take well to change," said Joe Terzi, chief executive of the San Diego Convention & Visitors Bureau. "They plan their year around this event." [U-T San Diego]
Editorial cartoons | The New York Times has apologized to readers who were offended by an editorial cartoon about India's space program that depicted the country as a man in traditional dress, leading a cow and knocking at the door of the "Elite Space Club." "The intent of the cartoonist, Heng Kim Song, was to highlight how space exploration is no longer the exclusive domain of rich, Western countries," reads the apology, signed by editorial page editor Andrew Rosenthal. "Mr. Heng, who is based in Singapore, uses images and text — often in a provocative way — to make observations about international affairs. We apologize to readers who were offended by the choice of images in this cartoon. Mr. Heng was in no way trying to impugn India, its government or its citizens." [The New Indian Express]
Valiant Entertainment and CKRTLAB Toys will launch a new Valiant Urban Vinyl toy line Oct. 9 at New York Comic Con with the introduction of X-O Manowar.
The publisher will have just 150 X-O figures available at its booth (#2028) for $25 each, while supplies last. The series of stylized figures will be released online and in comic stores in 2015.
Comics | Almost half the attendees at this year's Comic-Con International in San Diego were women, writes Yael Kohen in an article about the growing importance of women to the comics industry. He cites statistics showing that young women are the fastest-growing segment of the comics audience, talks to Image Comics President Eric Stephenson and a woman who works in a comic shop, and mentions the enduring popularity of manga and Marvel's recent introduction of more interesting female characters. With all that material to work with, it's too bad he started with a lead right out of the 1950s, something about a fashion show at Comic-Con, as if that's what all those women were there for. [BloombergBusinessweek]
Creators | Writer Jen Van Meter discusses her newest project, Valiant's first female-led series, The Death-Defying Doctor Mirage. [Hero Complex]
Following in the footsteps of the likes of Brian K. Vaughan and Marcos Martin's Panel Syndicate, Image Comics and, just last month, comiXology, Valiant Entertainment will allow readers to download its comics as DRM-free digital files.
Through a new agreement with DriveThruComics, Valiant's monthly titles are now available as PDFs on the same day of their print release. The online retailer will soon host the publisher's entire catalog of single issues and collections.
"Valiant has some of the most exciting and entertaining comics on the market today," Matt M. McElroy, DriveThruComics' director of publishing, said in a statement. "Several members of the DriveThruComics crew were already huge fans of the Valiant characters and creators, so we couldn't be more thrilled to have these books available on our site."
In celebration of the new partnership, the first issues of Valiant's ongoing series are available for free download from Drive Thru Comics for the next 30 days. They include:
Fans of Gilbert Hernandez who are attending Comic-Con International next week will probably want to stop by the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund booth (#1920). There they'll find, among other goodies, Valiant's limited-edition Harbinger #25 SDCC Liberty Variant, featuring a cover by Hernandez.
As if the cover weren't enough, it's a 48-page special issue containing work by Joshua Dysart, Khari Evans, Vivek J. Tiwary, Lewis LaRosa, Dan Goldman, Clayton Henry, Justin Jordan, Rafer Roberts, Lucy Knisley and Barry Kitson. Hernandez will be signing copies alongside Dysart, Tiwary and Knisley at noon Saturday, July 26, at the CBLDF booth.
This weekend's Special Edition NYC has brought confirmation on an earlier report by Bleeding Cool that two former DC editors have found new jobs at other publishers.
Katie Kubert, former editor of Batman, Detective and Batman Eternal, left DC Comics Friday after five years for a job as an editor at Marvel. Kubert appeared today on the Marvel's Next Big Thing panel at Special Edition NYC, where her new job was announced and she discussed being a third-generation Kubert (her grandfather is legendary artist Joe Kubert, while Adam and Andy Kubert are her uncles).
Meanwhile, Valiant has confirmed to ROBOT 6 that former DC Assistant Editor Kyle Andrukiewicz has joined them as an assistant editor. Andrukiewicz worked on titles like The Movement, Animal Man and The New 52: Future's End.
With DC Comics' upcoming move from New York to Burbank, California getting closer and closer, it isn't surprising to hear of current employees finding new opportunities with other publishers – if indeed that's the reason why they left. Last month Comic Book Resources confirmed that Bob Wayne will leave his position as senior vice president of sales at DC Comics prior to the scheduled move in April 2015.
Retailing | Finally breaking its silence regarding the feud with Hachette over sales terms, Amazon acknowledged it's buying less print inventory and "safety stock" from the publisher and is no longer taking pre-orders for its titles. And while Amazon conceded that "Hachette has operated in good faith and we admire the company and its executives," the retail giant said "we are not optimistic that this will be resolved soon." The company also recognized the affect the dispute may have on authors, revealing it offered to fund 50 percent of an author pool to help mitigate the impact. Hachette responded, saying it was glad Amazon has admitted its actions have an effect on authors: "We will spare no effort to resume normal business relations with Amazon—which has been a great partner for years — but under terms that value appropriately for the years ahead the author's unique role in creating books, and the publisher's role in editing, marketing, and distributing them, at the same time that it recognizes Amazon's importance as a retailer and innovator." [Publishers Weekly, GalleyCat]
Conventions | The organizers of the Supanova pop culture festival in Melbourne, Australia, triggered a social-media firestorm after removing a comic by artist Scarlette Baccini from her table because of explicit sexual content. The festival has a strict ban on pornography, and other adult material must be kept sealed and away from children. One of the organizers stopped by Baccini's table, flipped through her Jesus Reloadeth'd, and saw a drawing of two men having sex, so he removed the comic. Baccini posted about the incident on Facebook, triggering accusations of homophobia against the event organizers. However, they responded that the issue was the explicitness of the image, not that it depicted two men. [SameSame]
Valiant Entertainment has announced an agreement for Catalyst Game Labs to produce role-playing and tabletop games based on its comic properties, a partnership that will kick off later this year with the release of Valiant Universe RPG.
Using the Cue System, the Origins and ENnie Award-nominated system first published in Catalyst's Cosmic Patrol, Valiant Universe RPG will allow gamers to play any of dozens of characters — from X-O Manowar to Bloodshot to Shadowman — in a "dark and gritty world where every mission and every battle has deadly consequences."
"Catalyst is exceptional at what they do, and we couldn't be happier to be working with a games publisher of their caliber on Valiant's very first RPG," Valiant's Russell A. Brown said in a statement. "With such a skilled an enthusiastic team at the helm, we have every faith that Valiant's first foray into the world of role-play and tabletop gaming will live up to the expectations of our fans around the world."
The announcement follows IDW Publishing's recent entry into gaming through a partnership with Pandasaurus Games; a Kill Shakespeare game is scheduled to arrive in May.
Passings | Animator and blogger Michael Sporn died Sunday in New York City from pancreatic cancer. He was 67. Sporn's short film Doctor DeSoto, based on William Steig's book, was nominated for an Oscar, and his The Man Who Walked Between the Towers won several awards. He created animated adaptations of a number of children's books, including Lyle Lyle Crocodile and Goodnight Moon, for HBO. In comics circles, he was also known as a blogger who turned up cool bits and pieces of animation and art. [Variety]
Publishing | Torsten Adair crunches some numbers from The New York Times 2013 bestseller lists, looking at each category and, in some cases, each publisher separately and breaking down the charting books into easy-to-follow pie charts. [The Beat]

Nana Mouskouri Over the Rainbow Lyrics
Last updated: 10/29/2003 05:26:14 AM
Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true
Someday I wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles smelled like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little blue birds fly beyong the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I ?

than a century ago, the idea of one day inheriting family property and
creating a home where your ancestors had once lived was the norm. Each
generation adding their own sense of style to the home, while still
retaining the character of the previous owners, was both a tradition and
an honor among many families.

"A big truck comes in about 6 o'clock, and if gets out of here at 6:15, I'm doing good," Whittenberg said. "Nowadays 6:45 is good."
The Postal Service will deliver 20 billion letters, packages and cards between Thanksgiving and Christmas, with the busiest mailing day expected to be Monday, Dec. 19.
"Doing the job, you don't pay much attention to dates, when it picks up and when it declines," Whittenberg said. "You're hustling to get those packages out because if they don't get delivered, that means somebody's Christmas. You're just working to get the packages and the other mail out."
According to the U.S. Postal Service, total mail volume on Dec. 19 is expected to rise to 900 million pieces of mail, up from 670 million pieces on an average day.
About 100 million first-class letters are processed every day. That number increases to 150 million a day during the holidays. About 1 million packages will be delivered every day through Christmas Eve. The busiest delivery day will be Wednesday, Dec. 21.
As bulk mail clerk, Whittenberg sorts mail into different containers and said he's noticed more packages than cards -- although the post office gets tons of cards.
"It hits you all at once and it doesn't let up. You don't have time to look and see what it is and know which classes of packages are mailed more than others," Whittenberg said.
But there are things customers can do to assist postal workers and to ensure their mail arrives safely and in time for the holidays.
Make the "To" address clear and plainly visible, Whittenberg said.
"And by all means, please put a return address on it," Whittenberg said.
If a piece of mail contains a wrong address or is packaged wrong and has no return address, the postal service has no way of knowing who to return the package to, Whittenberg said. The mail is then sent to the "dead letter office" in St. Paul, Minn.
"They're the only ones authorized to open and retrieve dead mail," Whittenberg said.
Sheila Richardson, post master at the New Madrid Post Office, said mail without return addresses is very common, too.
"It's important to put return addresses on mail because, especially since 9
-11, its considered target mail if not done correctly," Richardson said. "And also If someone's moved away, we need a way to get the mail back to the sender."
In addition to including a return address, customers should make sure anything breakable or damageable is packaged well, Whittenberg said. "If you don't package well, it can come open in shipping, and the contents could be lost," Whittenberg said.
Packaging well includes, for instance, using bubble wrap or a lot of newspapers with a glass item, Whittenberg said.
New Madrid Post Office employees have also been busy with holiday packages and cards, and Richardson anticipates more business as Christmas approaches.
"Mail early," Richardson advised. "It keeps the rush down."

On Monday, in Trading 12 Homebuilders With Mixed Earnings and Housing Data, I provided the most current data and analysis of the homebuilder stocks. All 12 had gains since my prior post of Dec. 19, Homebuilders Rebound on Single-Family Starts. Today, I profile the eight stocks in the housing sector index that are not homebuilders. Five have traded lower for the year to date. They are led by Masco , down 8.9%, followed by Weyerhaeuser , down 7.9% and then Owens Corning , down 7.5%.

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
It's always illuminating to visit an artist working in his or her studio. There is a permanent mystery when viewing art – where did it come from, how was it birthed? Artists themselves have also enjoyed the interaction with a form of public while in the process of creation. MOCA has latched on to both these threads and for the second time, has produced "Trading Places II" (part of its Knight Exhibition Series), where artists are invited to swap their own studios for a few months to work – usually much more publically – for space in the museum's galleries. It's potentially a truly community-building project.
The idea is this: several artists are picked who will both thrive in this interactive (and even invasive) environment, and who will be able to give back, to those who visit and more specifically, to the teens who are part of MOCA's after-school programs.
It also means that we are introduced (or re-introduced?) to work of some artists who are part of our scene's fabric – but you may not know it. Like Onajide Shabaka, who has been working as a curator, writer, mentor and yes, indeed an artist, having shown in a wide variety of exhibits for decades from California to Florida. Interestingly enough, in light of his new "public studio space," he has described his work this way: "I have forged a path for my artistic interests that challenges the status quo of the mainstream art world, especially the hermeticism and austerity of the white cubic gallery space. At the same time, my work, in its engagement with nature, history, technology and ritual – allows the viewers to experience a more holistic view of the world."
The Icelandic native Magnus Sigurdarson is another who has traded places for this program, an artist whose works are always intentionally unpredictable, sometimes as a result of his "trading" extreme geographical places, from the Nordic north (in all its metaphorical implications) to the sultry tropics (ditto on the implications). Performance-based artist Antonia Wright should fit right in, as part of her art is about exploring social interactions, and critiques.
Haitian-born Rick Ulysse and recent New World School of the Arts grad Dona Altemus round out the group. "One of the essential aspects of any art community is the interaction between its artists…and to engage the public in the creative process," says MOCA director Bonnie Clearwater.
Meet the artists during "Trading Places II" tonight, Sept. 14, at 8 p.m., at MOCA, 770 N.E. 125th St., North Miami; 305-893-6211; www.mocanomi.org.

Cache la Poudre - North Park
This byway links Fort Collins with verdant North Park, a quiet, bowl-shaped valley just west of the Continental Divide. The road runs through the Cache la Poudre River canyon, once a useful transit corridor for Native Americans and, later, white explorers. Today's visitors lean more toward recreation; whitewater boaters and anglers love the Poudre, Colorado's only federally designated National Wild and Scenic River. At 10,276-foot Cameron Pass the highway intersects Colorado State Forest, a 70,000-acre preserve of glaciated mountains and evergreen thickets. North Park, once a favorite bison grazing ground, remains heavily populated with deer, antelope, elk, moose, beaver, and coyote; migrating waterfowl flock to the Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge.

The Time Machine Passivity Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #10
The Editor stood up with a sigh. "What a pity it is you're not a writer of stories!" he said.
"I'm hanged if it isn't a quarter to one," said the Journalist. "How shall we get home?" (12.16)
After hearing the Time Traveller's story, the Editor and the Journalist are the first to reject it and the first to bring everyone's attention back to their day-to-day concerns. It's certainly easier to deal with the problem of getting home than the future of the human species. This is mental passivity – these two would rather take the easy way out and avoid any serious, difficult thinking.

The Westing Game
by Ellen Raskin
The Westing Game Appearances Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
"All mothers think their children are beautiful. Rosalie was an exceptional child, they said, but she was the lovingest person that ever was."
"My mother doesn't think I'm beautiful."
"Of course she does." (11.6-8)
This is the contrast between what a mother should be and what a mother is; it's also a profound question about the nature of beauty, and what that can really be. Flora thinks it's a requirement of motherhood to believe that your child is beautiful, and she sees beauty through the lens of parental love. When Turtle says that her mother doesn't think she's beautiful, the reader knows from other moments in the text that her statement is, sadly, all too true.
Quote #5
Theo nodded, awed by the beautiful Angela, three years older than he, so fair-skinned and blonde, so unattainable. Here he was sitting at the very same table with her, just the two of them, and he couldn't think of a single thing to say that wasn't stupid or childish or childishly stupid. (13.19)
Like some of the other male characters, Theo has a big crush on Angela, but it never comes to anything. But whereas some of the others focus exclusively on her beauty, Theo worries about appearing intelligent and adult in front of her. That means he thinks of her as both grown-up and smart, which is so different from how she sees herself. While he's still judging her based on appearances, at least he's including positive qualities in his analysis.
Quote #6
Why bother with driving lessons, her mother said, anyone as pretty as you can always find a handsome young man to chauffeur you. She should have insisted. She should have said no just once to her mother, just once. It was too late now. (14.48)
Poor Angela. Between her beauty and her mother, she can't win. Here, we see how deeply both those things have damaged her. Her mother's used Angela's beauty as an excuse to keep her completely innocent, to the point of helplessness. She's tried to teach Angela to depend on her appearance, to the point where Angela can't even drive a car. Because of her beauty, she's actually become trapped and dependent.

Step one in the renovation of the Warriors is complete: Corey Maggette has signed.
The 6-foot-6, 225-pound swingman, the Los Angeles Clippers leading scorer a season ago, put his signature on a five-year, $50 million contract Thursday, just two days after he agreed to the Warriors' offer.
The signing, expected to be just the first of many transactions by Golden State this offseason, brings the Baron Davis era of Warriors basketball — which was highlighted by a captivating style of play and an historic playoff upset — to an abrupt end.
Perhaps the franchise's history will come to view today as the first day in year 1 A.D. — After Davis.
"It's one of those things when you'll have to look back years from now to really see how much he did for this franchise," Warriors executive vice president of basketball operations Chris Mullin said of his former point guard in a phone interview Thursday. "Nobody has more respect for Baron than I do on and off the court. He always performed at a high level "... Baron is a unique talent and a unique person. I don't think there are many like him. But it's time to move forward. We've got to figure out how to replace what he brought."
In addition to locking up Maggette, which happened a day after NBA teams were first allowed to sign free agents, the Warriors received a signed offer sheet from Los Angeles Lakers power forward Ronny Turiaf. Since Turiaf is a restricted free agent, the Lakers have seven days to match the offer, per collective bargaining agreement rules. If they haven't matched by next Thursday, Turiaf becomes a Warrior, reportedly for four years and $17 million.
Maggette and Turiaf certainly weren't the first options for the Warriors' makeover — which suddenly became necessary when Davis surprised the Warriors by opting out of the final year of his contract on June 30, forgoing $17.8 million in favor of a five-year, $65 million deal from the Clippers.
The Warriors went after their former point guard, Washington Wizards All-Star Gilbert Arenas, and tried to steal All-Star power forward Elton Brand away from the Clippers (which the Philadelphia 76ers were successful at). After being rebuffed by both, the Warriors turned to Maggette, hoping he will bring the scoring punch they desperately will miss with the loss of Davis.
"I've always had a great deal of respect for his game," said Mullin, who tried to trade for Maggette previously, according to a source close to Maggette. "For us to get a 20-point scorer "... a solid and consistent free throw shooter, someone who gets to the line a lot — it's going to open up things even more for us. We had primarily become a perimeter shooting team. That's another part of the game we lacked."
Mullin said the Warriors are hardly done renovating. They are looking for a point guard and still have holes on the frontline.
The ideal field general, Mullin said, would be someone who could also play and defend shooting guards. Expected to take over the starting point-guard duties, Monta Ellis figures to again log plenty minutes. The Warriors want a point guard who can share the backcourt with Ellis, allowing Ellis to play some shooting guard as he did alongside Davis.
As for the inside needs, the Warriors figure Turiaf fills many of them. The Lakers are expected to decline their chance to match the Warriors' offer and keep Turiaf, who could cost them $34 million over seven years because of luxury tax penalties.
"We like his tenacity, his energy, his defense, his rebounding," Mullin said of Turiaf. "A part of his game that's underrated is his passing ability. He's better on offense than most people think."
Don't expect the renovation to take awhile, either.
Mullin said he doesn't expect to be a player on the free agent market in the future — namely the offseason of 2010, which is shaping up to be loaded with difference-makers and franchise players.
Mullin said the commitments he's making now — especially to Ellis and center Andris Biedrins, who are expected to sign lucrative long-term deals this summer — take the Warriors out of the running for signing any of the big-name free agents coming up the next two offseasons.
The new era — Warriors basketball A.D. — starts now.

NYC Taxi Commission Approves First Fare Increase Since 2006
New York City's Taxi & Limousine Commission approved a 17 percent fare increase for yellow cabs, giving drivers their first raise since 2006.
The agency voted 6 to 2 with one abstention to approve the change at a meeting in Manhattan today. They rejected an increase in how much fleet owners may charge drivers who lease cabs from them, while permitting independent driver-owners who lease out their vehicles part-time to charge more.
Starting in September, the cost of an average taxi ride will rise $2 to about $15, said Allan Fromberg, a commission spokesman. That means a driver will take home an average of $160 after a 12-hour shift, up from $130, said commission Chairman David Yassky.
"It is time for a raise, and I think the public understands that," Yassky said at the meeting. "The public is prepared to pay more for taxi drivers to make a living."
Cab meters will click 50-cent increments for each fifth of a mile (0.3 kilometer) traveled, or for each minute in stopped or slow traffic, up from 40 cents. A ride between John F. Kennedy International Airport and Manhattan will rise to $52 from $45, plus tolls. The Newark Liberty International Airport surcharge will be $17.50, up from $15.
Hack Gripe
The increase places New York fourth in cost for an average taxi ride, behind Tokyo, San Francisco and Los Angeles, according to a commission comparison of 12 cities with large numbers of taxi riders. New York's 13,000 yellow cabs carry about 600,000 people in 450,000 trips each day, Fromberg said.
Fleet owners, represented by the Metropolitan Taxi Cab Board of Trade, opposed the new fares, saying they also should have been permitted to charge drivers more to lease cabs. Drivers pay a fleet owner about $120 to $130 a day for use of a cab and its medallion, or operating license.
Cabbies also pay for gasoline and a 5 percent fee to the fleet owner for each fare paid with a credit card, which averages about $8 a day -- a gripe among hacks since 2007, when the city began requiring the payment option.
Today's vote makes the fleet owners responsible for the credit-card fees and requires drivers to pay owners an additional $9 a day to defray the cost.
'Justice' for Drivers
Drivers haven't had an across-the-board boost since 2004, when rates rose 26 percent. In 2006, the meter charge for cabs in slow or standing traffic climbed to 40 cents per minute from 40 cents every two minutes. A 50-cent surcharge on all taxi rides enacted in 2009 goes to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, not to drivers or fleet owners.
"We're very excited today that justice has been done," said Mohamed Bolouch, 52, a Moroccan immigrant and cab driver for nine years. "We're not trying to be rich millionaires. We're just trying to provide food for our children."
Five of the commission's nine members are selected by each of the borough delegations in the City Council and four by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who supported the fare increase.
The mayor is founder and majority owner of Bloomberg News parent Bloomberg LP.

New Racing Year – New Race Format
Wednesday, 10 February 2016 15:09
With just one month to go before the season opener, officials for the Red Bull Air Race World Championship have revealed a revised race format. As compared to 2015, the new format focuses even more on time, putting heightened emphasis on the skills of the pilots and their teams. In a sport where the placement can hinge on thousandths of a second, this could be the most thrilling season yet.
The overall Race Day structure remains the same: With a starting order based on Qualifying, the entire lineup – 14 of the world's best pilots – competes in head-to-head elimination heats in the Round of 14. The winner of each heat advances, plus the round's fastest loser.
Next up are more elimination pairings in the Round of 8, and that's where the key change comes in. Beginning in 2016, the eight pilots will be reseeded based on their Round of 14 timings. The fastest pilot from the Round of 14 will race against the eighth-fastest, the second-fastest will face the seventh-fastest, and so on. The winner of each heat advances to the Final 4.
Another change is that in those head-to-head pairings, in the rare instance when both pilots fail to score a valid time, neither pilot will move on to the subsequent round. Advancing instead will be a second "fastest loser": the next pilot in line based on the times recorded among all those who lost their heats.
"We continually review our operations and format and strive to improve competitiveness and fairness. We had two scenarios in 2015 where we had the same pairing in the Round of 14 and Round of 8. So, we changed the order of the Round of 8 to be directly related to the time that each pilot posted in his Round of 14," explains Race Director Jim DiMatteo. "We all feel this order is more fair to the pilots and improves the competition for any given location, ultimately resulting in an even more exciting race."
"I think the new race format is much more fair, because it supports those putting effort in all rounds before the final," says Hannes Arch of Austria, who has stood on the overall podium the past five consecutive seasons, including a World Championship title in 2008. Arch and the rest of the pilots will get their first chance to race in the new format when the high-speed, low-altitude action kicks off at the season opener in Abu Dhabi on 11-12 March 2016.
It's time to grab a seat: Tickets for most races of the 2016 Red Bull Air Race World Championship are on sale now. For more information on tickets and all the latest, including details on the race format and rules, visit www.redbullairrace.com

Red Bull Air Race 2016 Calendar Announced With New locations in Germany and U.S.
Tuesday, 15 December 2015 15:03
The Red Bull Air Race World Championship will mark its ninth season in 2016 with two exciting new stops where fans are passionate about motorsports: the famed Lausitzring in Germany and the U.S. city of Indianapolis, Indiana, home to the Indianapolis 500 that's renowned as part of the "Triple Crown" of auto racing.
In a season that spans seven countries over eight races, the enthralling motorsport series will also captivate spectators at stops that have already become favorites in the calendar.
It all kicks off on March 11/12, with the traditional season opener over the Arabian Gulf in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates for the ninth straight time. Next up, the action is back at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria – one of the highlight venues in the Formula One calendar on 23/24 April. The high-speed, low-altitude race will then return to Japan, following the overwhelming success of the debut race in 2015 that sold out across the weekend.
The Championship then moves to Budapest, Hungary on July 16/17 where the racetrack's 25-meter-high pylons are set up in the heart of the city, contrasting wit
h the stunning backdrop of the Parliament Building, a location which has hosted seven races. On August 13/14, the setting is Ascot in England, the renowned horse-racing track that has proven to be one of the all-time favorite stops in the history of the sport, before the series makes that breathlessly anticipated return to the Lausitzring on September 3/4, where fans will be able to savor a race in Germany for the first time since 2010 and cheer local Master Class pilot Matthias Dolderer. Once again the final two races of the season will be in North America; first, on October 1/2, with the Red Bull Air Race premiere at Indianapolis, a sport-loving city in the country's heartland where motorsport is king. The season finale happens on October 15/16 in Las Vegas, Nevada, where the new World Champion will be crowned at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
"We look forward to bringing the race closer to even more fans in 2016, and it will be a privilege to share our sport at two more locations that are rich with motorsport history," said Erich Wolf, General Manager of Red Bull Air Race GmbH. "The pilots and teams are already hard at work on technical innovations and strategic plans, and the races at all eight stops promise to be faster and more competitive than ever. The year ahead should be thrilling for spectators and competitors alike."
Ticketing for the 2016 season of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship will begin in mid December. For more information on tickets or the latest, visit www.redbullairrace.com ***

McLeod Closes Out 2015 Season in Las Vegas
Sunday, 18 October 2015 23:57
LAS VEGAS (USA) - Team Garmin's Pete McLeod of Canada came to Las Vegas hoping to hit a winning streak like he had a year ago when he got the first Red Bull Air Race victory of his career but it wasn't in the cards this year and he ended up in 11th place in the final race of the season on Sunday at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
McLeod, who had one podium this season in the first race of the year in Abu Dhabi, got knocked out of the high-speed, low-altitude racing in the opening round by France's Nicolas Ivanoff after getting a late penalty that ruined an otherwise strong run. That dropped him down to eighth place overall in the final World Championship standings with 19 points.
"It's definitely been an up and down season, a lot of progress in some areas and a lot of struggle in others," said McLeod, the youngest pilot in the world's fastest motorsport series. "I had a great time flying here, but I'm already looking to 2016. I'm looking forward to a few days' break, then we start getting ready for next season. We have some work to do on the airplane."
Team Garmin spend much of the season trying to get more power out of the engine.
"We struggled this year not having enough speed to allow conservative lines – I always had to push and take risks," he said. "I think I moved forward for sure this year, we did a lot of progress with analysis and I think my flying has matured – but still keeping that racing spirit. I am more consistent and I want to keep that going."
Britain's Paul Bonhomme won the World Championship after taking second on Sunday behind Australia's Matt Hall, who won his second race this season. It was Bonhomme's third championship, in his 10th season after the British ace won the title 2009 and 2010. Bonhomme, who had to overcome technical problems just before the final race, ended up with 76 world championship points, just five ahead of Hall on 71 with Austria's Hannes Arch third overall with 34 points.
"It's amazing, just amazing," said a sweat-drenched Bonhomme, who had four wins and seven podiums in the eight races this season and scored a record-breaking 76 championship points. " It was the toughest World Championship I've ever had. It was hard work."
Hungary's Peter Besenyei, one of the most successful pilots in the history of the race with eight career victories, announced that he was retiring from the sport he helped create in 2003. Besenyei, 59, won the title in the inaugural season in 2003.

McLeod Back in Las Vegas With High Hopes A Year After Red Bull Air Race Victory
Friday, 09 October 2015 14:54
LAS VEGAS, Nevada (USA) – Team Garmin's Pete McLeod returns this weekend to the race track where he pulled off the first and only win of his Red Bull Air Race World Championship career a year ago – in Las Vegas.
The Canadian ace will be trying to avoid the small, irritating penalties that have cost him badly this season in the final race the year on Sunday. A victory in the American gaming capital could lift McLeod all the way from fifth place overall to third. Last year he was fifth overall with 38 points. This year he is fifth with 19 points.
"It's really hard to believe it was a year ago," said McLeod of his win here – awarded to him after heavy winds forced the cancellation of the race. McLeod had won the Qualifying session a day earlier. "It was a huge mess last year with the weather and there was a lot of pressure on me in that situation because I qualified first. We're in a different position this year and a lot of things are different. This race is all about finishing the season on a strong note."
McLeod has gotten on the podium just once this season, a third place in the season opener in Abu Dhabi. But he could take third overall with a win and the 12 points that come with it on Sunday. He has been hurt by an underperforming engine but also getting untimely penalties for such things as exceeding the 10g limit for a fraction of a second too long – pilots are allowed to exceed the 10g limit for just 0.5 second.
"I would like to fly penalty-free without getting some stupid over-g penalty or over-speed penalty or other kinds of calls of that nature," said McLeod, who has also been hurt in the past for just barely exceeding the 370-kph speed limit at the start.
In the last race in Fort Worth, McLeod was having a brilliant run in the Round of Eight and came close to knocking out Britain's Paul Bonhomme in their head-to-head heat. But McLeod exceeded the 10g limit for a fraction of a second too long and was disqualified.
"My net time on the first lap was the fastest first lap on that track ever," said McLeod. "I really had some runs in Fort Worth that were really fast. I was ahead of Paul at that point and feel I could have beaten him out there in Texas, which would have changed things dramatically for the championship."
Indeed, McLeod went packing and Bonhomme went on to win the race in Fort Worth to move eight points ahead of Australia's Matt Hall, who was second in Fort Worth in the world championship race. The title race would have narrowed considerably if McLeod had beaten Bonhomme.
In the battle in Las Vegas for third place overall, Austria's Hannes Arch leads with 30 points, Martin Sonka of the Czech Republic is in fourth with 28 points. There are three more pilots breathing down Arch's back in the race for third – Nigel Lamb (GBR) has 20, McLeod (CAN) and Matthias Dolderer (GER) have 19 each.
"It would be nice to get third overall and hopefully I'll fly well here," said McLeod. "We're already focused on 2016. We'll be looking to put down a fast time every time I'm out in the track."

Many of us sit all day, managing the world at our fingertips with no more effort than making a few keystrokes. Because of so many conveniences, it takes a conscious effort to maintain a healthy weight, some measure of physical fitness and a level of flexibility that allows us to perform daily tasks without strain or injury.
Stretching exercises can improve posture and are an effective preventative for strained or chronically sore backs — one of the most common complaints among adults.
Spend a few minutes walking in place with gently swinging arms to get the blood flowing before doing the exercises below. All movements should be done slowly, to the point where you feel a gentle, pleasant tension in the muscle being stretched. Hold each position for 15 to 30 seconds. Relax and breathe easily through the nose. Never bounce as you hold a stretch. If you feel pain, stop immediately.
1. Stand comfortably with your hands on your hips, or place both hands on a wall (shoulder's width apart), and step forward with the right foot (about a half-shoulder's width).
2. Bend both knees, keeping feet flat on the floor, and shift weight to your forward foot.
3. Slowly lower hips, until you feel a gentle stretching sensation in the calf muscle and Achilles tendon of the left (rear) leg. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then switch legs and repeat.
1. Sit comfortably on the floor with your right leg straight and left leg bent, so the sole of your left foot rests flat against the inside of your right leg.
2. Slowly curl upper body down toward the right knee until you feel a gentle stretching sensation in the right hamstring. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then switch legs and repeat.
1. Standing comfortably, lace your fingers behind your back so palms are facing in toward the spine, thumbs pointing down at the ground.
2. Slowly raise your linked hands up toward the ceiling, keeping neck and back relaxed, until you feel a gentle stretching sensation in the front of your chest. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds.
1. Bend your right arm behind your neck, so right elbow points to the ceiling.
2. Grasp your right elbow with your left hand and pull it gently to the left, until you feel a stretching sensation at the back of your upper right arm. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then switch arms and repeat.
1. Lie on your back with both legs extended straight out.
2. Bend your right knee and clasp it with both hands, then slowly pull knee toward your chest as far is it will comfortably go.
3. Breathe in deeply then exhale, relaxing and pulling knee closer as you breathe out. Repeat this breathing action several times as you hold stretch for 15 to 30 seconds. Switch legs and repeat.

Take South Kalamazoo Street to Pearl Street. Go to the end of Pearl Street where you will find the Marshall Riverwalk parking area.
Head up the boardwalk next to the green garbage can. At the end of the boardwalk, there is a black post to your left. The light of the post points your way to the water. Follow the path to the water. The path you need to take is to your left, but there is scenic view on the right side. If you follow, you will see the Kalamazoo River on your right. Keep following the path.
You can go any direction from here, but just make sure you keep the river on your right. When you reach the next boardwalk, turn right down the path. At the bottom is a nice view of the Kalamazoo River. Turn left to continue into the woods, in search of my cat.
Just a few feet down the path, my cat saw turtles on a log and pawed at the fence. Continue down the path. Soon we came across a three-trunked tree next to the river that my cat wanted to climb, but it was too far away and we continued.
My cat ran quickly down the now sloping boardwalk. We went on passing the next two viewing platforms to your right all the way to the parking lot. You will see a gazebo near the parking area. If you sit on the bench in the gazebo farthest from the parking lot facing away from the lot, you will see a platform. To the left of the platform, you will see a tree. If you stand behind the tree, looking to the left, you will see another tree leaning at an angle. My cat ran to that tree. Look for my cat in the tree. I hope you find my cat. Please return my cat to the tree and hide it well.

The fit around the seats is perfect and the style is very durable. The only problem is the center console does not take into account the cup holders.

Being a farmer I am always dirty and so is my dog, but these seat covers keep the dirt in one place making it clean with one pass of a shop vac. The storage bags located on the back of the front seats or bottom of the back, help my keep everything organize and out of the way. Great purchase, I highly recommend these!

I've been a fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald and the 1920s era for as long as I can remember. That time period just fascinates me. So this wedding inspired by two of my favorite things executed in such a way I can almost hear the jazz band playing and the champagne bottles pop? Well, it's basically my heaven. It's theme wedding done oh-so-well, and thanks to Michele Beckwith you can see it all...

DAMASCUS: Scores of civilians from President Bashar Al Assad's minority sect were reported killed yesterday as Washington blacklisted an Al Qaeda-linked rebel group it accuses of hijacking the uprising in Syria.
Bomb attacks in the village of Aqrab in the central province of Hama killed or wounded at least 125 civilians, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which could not immediately give a breakdown of the casualties.
"We cannot know whether the rebels were behind this attack, but if they were, this would be the largest-scale revenge attack against Alawites," members of a Shia sect in Sunni-majority Syria, said Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman.
Aqrab is located near Houla, a majority Sunni Muslim village where 108 people, including 49 children and 34 women, were massacred on May 25 in what was widely blamed on pro-regime militias despite denials from Damascus.
Reports of the latest massacre broke hours after the United States blacklisted Al Nusra Front as a "terrorist organisation," balancing its move with the announcement of fresh sanctions against pro-Assad militias.
The US State Department said that despite its efforts to portray itself as part of the legitimate Syrian opposition, Al Nusra was a front for the Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) organisation. "It is, in fact, an attempt by AQI to hijack the struggles of the Syrian people for its own malign purposes," it said.
The Al Nusra Front's fighters, many of them jihadist volunteers from around the Islamic world, were instrumental in the fall of the army's massive Sheikh Suleiman base in northern Syria on Monday after a months-long siege.
Its role in the seizure of the garrison, the government's last between second city Aleppo and the Turkish border, undercut the military influence of the mainstream rebel Free Syrian Army (FSA).
A journalist who witnessed the clashes around Sheikh Suleiman said many fighters were from other Arab countries and Central Asia. The US Treasury Department designated two of the Al Nusra Front's senior leaders, Maysar Ali Musa Abdallah Al Juburi and Anas Hasan Khattab, for sanctions.
It also imposed sanctions on two armed militias supporting the Assad regime as well as two shabiha (pro-regime militia) commanders.
At the same time, however, Washington said it had reason to ease the urgent concerns it had expressed in recent weeks about the dangers of Damascus resorting to use of its chemical weapons stockpiles against the rebels.
US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta said Syria had not taken any new steps in recent days that signal a readiness to use its arsenal.
"At this point the intelligence has really kind of levelled off. We haven't seen anything new indicating any aggressive steps to move forward in that way," Panetta told reporters aboard his plane before landing in Kuwait.
International military chiefs have met in London to discuss the Syria conflict, a diplomatic source said after a media report that they discussed plans to train rebels and give air and naval support.

Live From Gaza City
Israel Launches Airstrikes in Gaza
Gaza Toll Rises as a Top Militant Is Targeted
Hamas's leader refused to stop rocket attacks on Israel on Monday while Israeli forces stepped up their bombardment of Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, deepening the conflict even as officials on both sides held up a faint hope for a diplomatic resolution. The death toll from nearly a week of Israeli strikes into the Gaza Strip hit 115 on Monday, with the day's fatalities including a propaganda chief for a Gaza militant group. Officials on both sides used the sixth day of mutual bombardment to emphasize that they are prepared to escalate the conflict. WSJ's Matt Bradley joined us live this morning with the latest.

The Mill on the Floss
by George Eliot
Character Role Analysis
Stephen Guest and Philip Wakem
Philip and Stephen are both Maggie's love interests in the book. The two men represent very different strands of love and relationships though. Maggie's relationship with Philip is based in friendship and at times strays more into sibling territory, as opposed to romantic territory. Philip is definitely in love with Maggie. But, while Maggie loves Philip, she is not in love with him. Stephen, on the other hand, represents a more romantic relationship defined by sexual attraction. Maggie's feelings for Stephen are hugely influenced by the physical attraction she feels for him, and the same is true for Stephen in regards to Maggie.

Findings for PPC in Newport News
Newport News Ranks Amongst Least Expensive Markets for Google Adwords in USA
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Newport News was the 110th least expensive city in USA in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of May 2016. Newport News also ranks amongst the least expensive cities in Virginia, ranking as number 5th. In the study, San Buenaventura ranked as the most expensive city in the country, while Ontario ranked as the least expensive city.
Month over Month Google Adwords Prices for Newport News Rise in May 2016
SEP's research shows that the average price of a click to advertisers targeting Newport News keywords increased by 14% in May 2016.
Not surprisingly, the month over month price increases for Newport News Google Adwords terms helped increase prices (yr./yr. price increase)% higher than the same period last year.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 50% Higher in Newport News than Hampton
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Newport News are 50% higher than in Hampton. The average price of a click in Newport News is $12.65.
This price difference is understandable though, given the population of Hampton is less than Newport News, which generally means less competition and therefore lower prices.
To understand if prices in Newport News are relatively low, we also compared prices with Brownsville which has a similar population, and found the average price of a click in Newport News was 481% higher than in Brownsville. This suggests that perhaps Newport News prices are not relatively low.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

The following article was dashed off 11 years ago and was published in a couple journals shortly thereafter.
This Sunday morning after I came home from church, I made myself a cup of tea and laid a fire in the fireplace. The radio was on bringing me St. Paul Sunday as I sat in my blue chair and started working on the New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle. Our Christmas tree was still up, not to be taken down until Twelfth Night, and the Poinsettias on the hearth made a lovely indoor setting. As I worked the puzzle I would occasionally look at the roaring fire and through the sliding doors to the patio and the back woods. What a beautiful sight what with the recent snow outlining every limb on every tree and bush in the woods. On the patio the wrought iron chairs and table had a lovely blanket of snow. A dwarf boxwood had a dome snow hat which was quite enchanting. A small beech tree in the woods still retained its leaves and the brown seedpods still hung on silverbell tree. Off to the right of the silverbell was the Kousa dogwood with its attractive flaking bark.
Putting down the puzzle I meandered out to the family room and gazed out the window to the front yard and woods. With icicles starting to form on the gutters, the scene of snow-laden branches was repeated in the front woods. Every truss on my six-foot tall Janet Blair Rhododendron had its own hat of snow as did the Japanese Hollies. Looking across the ribbon of lawn only a few of the stones in my wall were visible, but as the days go by and the sun returns they will reappear. First to emerge from their blanket of snow will be where the snow is not quite so deep or where the sun is stronger. I note with pleasure the varying colors and textures of the bark on the trees � from the alligator-like bark of the dogwoods to the dark furrowed bark of the pines, the smooth bark of the maples, the dark and light rough bark of the black and white oaks, the shaggy bark of the hickories. Surpassing them all is the reddish flaking bark of the paper bark maple. My snow covered sitting rock backed by rhododendrons makes a lovely accent along the path. Beyond that in the row of shrubs in the front hedge, the bright red berries of the spice bush cling tightly to each branch. Looking toward the driveway the Serbian spruce is a thing of beauty standing tall and narrow with its pendulous branches. Although I cannot see them from the window, I know that the row of Hemlocks make a picture of green and white on the south border. Although still in winter�s grip, I know that beneath the blanket of snow plants are stirring. Already we have 10-12 minutes more of daylight at the end of the day. In milder snow-free winters, the snow drops would have emerged and maybe even be in bloom. If I looked hard enough in such a winter I could find a few grass-like leaves of spring beauty.
