Bartoli, Lisicki in finals
LONDON (AP) -- Sabine Lisicki has had no letdown since ousting top-seed Serena Williams at Wimbledon. The German has reached the finals for the first time in a Grand Slam after beating fourth-seed Agnieszka Radwanska (ahg-nee-ESH'-kuh rahd-VAHN'-skuh) 6-4, 2-6, 9-7. Lisicki overcame a 3-love deficit in the final set to reach a Grand Slam final for the first time just days after stunning Williams in a fourth round upset.
She'll be taking on France's Marion Bartoli for the women's title.
The 15th-seeded Frenchwoman took just 62 minutes to beat Belgium's Kirsten Flipkens 6-1, 6-2. It will be Bartoli's second time in the title match on Wimbledon's Centre Court. She reached the final in 2007, losing to Venus Williams in straight sets.
Lisicki and Bartoli have met four times previously with the German winning the last three including two years ago in the Wimbledon quarterfinals.
Mike and Bob Bryan have moved to within a win from their fourth straight major doubles title with a 6-7 (4), 6-4, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 over Rohan Bopanna and Edouard Roger-Vasselin.
The Americans have won a record 14 Grand Slam tournaments. If they get the 15th this week, they'll become the first team in the Open era to hold all four major titles at the same time.
The Bryans have won 23 straight matches.
Ramos leads Nats win
UNDATED (AP) -- Wilson Ramos returned to the Washington line-up with a homer and five RBI's in an 8-5 win over Milwaukee. His three-run homer in the seventh inning snapped a five-all tie. Ramos went 3-for-4 including a two-run single. He missed 44 games with a strained left hamstring.
This afternoon's game in Cincinnati between the Reds and Giants has been rained out. No make-up date has been set.
Bobcats land Jefferson
UNDATED (AP) -- People familiar with the situation say the Charlotte Bobcats have agreed to a three-year, $40.5 million contract with free agent center Al Jefferson. Jefferson will make $13.5 million in each season with a player option for the third year.
The people spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because the deal isn't official.
The 28-year old Jefferson gives the Bobcats a much-needed scoring threat in the low post, where they struggled last season. The 6-foot-10, 289-pound Jefferson averaged 17.8 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists for Utah last season.
-- Free agents J.R. Smith and Pablo Prigioni are staying with the Knicks, their agents confirm. Smith gets a four-year contract worth around $25 million after being named the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year. Prigioni could make about $6 million over three years. The Argentine guard moved into the starting lineup late in the season and helped the Knicks finish 54-28.

Sens extend MacLean
OTTAWA (AP) -- NHL coach of the year Paul MacLean has signed a three-year extension with the Ottawa Senators.
MacLean won the Jack Adams Award this past season as the league's top coach after leading the injury-riddled Senators to a 25-17-6 record after the NHL lockout.
In two years with the Senators, MacLean is 66-48-16 in 130 regular-season games.
Devils resign Elias
UNDATED (AP) -- New Jersey has re-signed Patrik Elias (EHL'-ee-ahsh) to a three-year, $16.5 million contract, one day before the veteran forward was eligible to become an unrestricted free agent.
Elias' agent, Allan Walsh, announced the terms of the deal on Twitter.
Elias has spent his entire 15-year NHL career with the Devils. He leads the franchise with 375 goals, 555 assists and 930 points. Elias holds career playoff records with 45 goals, 80 assists and 125 points in 162 games.
Spain's PM backs Madrid bid
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) -- A day after Madrid wowed the IOC with its presentation, Spain's prime minister says concerns over his country's economy "don't exist anymore." Mariano Rajoy (rah-HOY') also plans to be in Argentina in September for the vote on the host city for the 2020 Olympics.
Rajoy met with IOC President Jacques Rogge (ROH'-guh) on Thursday to show his government's support for the Madrid bid, which picked up vital momentum a day earlier with its campaign pitch to the IOC general assembly.
Once viewed as a long shot because of Spain's severe economic crisis, Madrid is considered firmly in contention with Istanbul and Tokyo heading into the Sept. 7 vote. Madrid is bidding for a third consecutive time.
New leader takes over
MONTPELLIER, France (AP) -- German rider Andre Greipel (GRY'-pehl) has won the sixth stage of the Tour de France in a sprint finish.
Daryl Impey became the first South African to wear the race leader's yellow jersey after taking it from teammate Simon Gerrans.
Greipel surged ahead some 500 meters from the line and held off a strong challenge to capture mostly flat 110-mile stage.

Dear Santasaurus, found a new fav Christmas book before Labor Day, is that so wrong?
Way too many wonderful books come across my desk than I have time to read (I know, I'm crying all the way to my easy chair). I try to stay focused on Texas authors. I try to stay focused on authors coming to Texas. I try to stay focused on the month at hand. And then I see Dear Santasaurus by first-time picture book author Stacy McAnulty of North Carolina (Boyds Mills Press, $15.95).
I hope this post on Dear Santaurus, a series of monthly letters from a young dinosaur named Ernest B. Spinosaurus to a jolly green gift-giver in a red and white suit, doesn't put me on the naughty list. It is, after all, awfully early to be writing about Christmas books. But it is so funny and sweet.
It begins in January with Ernest thanking Santa for his remote-control flying pterodactyl ("One wing broke, so it doesn't fly anymore. But that's OK, because I lost the remote."). It continues with Ernest refining his big request for the upcoming holiday with updates for Santa on his (pretty evenly divided) naughty and nice doings.
The good thing about getting it early (available for pre-order now, ships Oct. 1), is that kids can savor the countdown to December, which includes a memorable school picture incident for September and an addition to Mr. Triceratops' Halloween pumpkin carvings for October that prompt an Ernest apology (very cool illustrations by kids' TV producer Jef Kaminsky by the way).
Does that put me back on the nice list now?

On October 6, 1973 — Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar — Egypt and Syria opened a coordinated surprise attack against Israel. The equivalent of the total forces of NATO in Europe were mobilized on Israel's borders. On the Golan Heights, approximately 180 Israeli tanks faced an onslaught of 1,400 Syrian tanks. Along the Suez Canal, 436 Israeli defenders were attacked by 80,000 Egyptians.
At least nine Arab states, including four non-Middle Eastern nations, actively aided the Egyptian-Syrian war effort.
A few months before the Yom Kippur War, Iraq transferred a squadron of Hunter jets to Egypt. During the war, an Iraqi division of some 18,000 men and several hundred tanks was deployed in the central Golan and participated in the October 16 attack against Israeli positions. Iraqi MiGs began operating over the Golan Heights as early as October 8, the third day of the war.
Besides serving as financial underwriters, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait committed men to battle. A Saudi brigade of approximately 3,000 troops was dispatched to Syria, where it participated in fighting along the approaches to Damascus. Also, violating Paris's ban on the transfer of French-made weapons, Libya sent Mirage fighters to Egypt (from 1971-1973, President Muammar Qaddafi gave Cairo more than $1 billion in aid to rearm Egypt and to pay the Soviets for weapons delivered).
Other North African countries responded to Arab and Soviet calls to aid the frontline states. Algeria sent three aircraft squadrons of fighters and bombers, an armored brigade and 150 tanks. Approximately 1,000-2,000 Tunisian soldiers were positioned in the Nile Delta. Sudan stationed 3,500 troops in southern Egypt, and Morocco sent three brigades to the front lines, including 2,500 men to Syria.
Lebanese radar units were used by Syrian air defense forces. Lebanon also allowed Palestinian terrorists to shell Israeli civilian settlements from its territory. Palestinians fought on the Southern Front with the Egyptians and Kuwaitis.
The least enthusiastic participant in the October fighting was probably Jordan's King Hussein, who apparently had been kept uninformed of Egyptian and Syrian war plans. But Hussein did send two of his best units — the 40th and 60th Armored Brigades — to Syria. This force took positions in the southern sector, defending the main Amman-Damascus route and attacking Israeli positions along the Kuneitra-Sassa road on October 16. Three Jordanian artillery batteries also participated in the assault, carried out by nearly 100 tanks.

I purchased this product and used exactly as instructions directed. Not only did it not work, I later received a call from the company when I was told by the Chemist that not only would this product ABSOLUTELY NOT WORK WITH ANTI-FREEZE (like instructions say to do) that it would cause it to turn into a GEL INSIDE THE VEHICLE ENGINE. So not only did the product not work they have potentially caused additional damage to my vehicle. He also said he has been trying for months to get the company to change the instructions on the label because the product will not work as directed.
PHOENIX, ARIZONA -- I love this stuff! I can honestly say even though it's a total band-aid, it saved me thousands of dollars. I have a 1997 Camry and it's held up for almost 4 months now. If it does not work for you, then you don't know how to follow directions. User error is not Steel Seal's fault.
FALL RIVER, MASSACHUSETTS -- STUFF WORKS. I was noticing white smoke and my tachometer was fluctuating when I would start my 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo back in 2013. Went to see my mechanic and he told me a head gasket to do it right it's gonna cost about $1200. Bought Steel Seal, cleaned my radiator and changed my oil. Followed the directions on 11/05/2013 with 83,000 miles and til today 08/03/2016 with 99,512 miles still running good. Thank you STEEL SEAL.
WHITTIER, CALIFORNIA -- So my 1994 Jeep Cherokee Sport was not leaking any coolant nor was it getting into my oil however the #6 cylinder was leaking exhaust gases into the coolant causing the head to run hot and the upper hose to be hard due to the exhaust pressure being pumped into the system. I researched the Steel Seal as much as I could online. I bought the product and called the tech line to go over what I needed to do before I started for my situation. I drained and flushed the extended life coolant from the system and from the overflow tank. Although it did not say to I also removed the thermostat like Scotty ** did on his youtube video.
I then removed the #6 spark plug and injector wire. I added the two bottles of Steel Seal for my 6 cylinder motor, $100.00 worth of product. I then added distilled water to top off the system. Next I replaced the rad cap and ran the car at idle in my driveway at 1000 rpm twice for one hour on and one hour off to let it cool down. I then ran the car again at idle twice for 1/2 hour on and let it cool for 1 hour off. The next morning I reinstalled the plug and injector and I drove it to Costco to get gas not hard just like an old guy.
Because It had no thermostat it stayed around 150% which was great because before the treatment it would get up to 230% quick forcing me to shut her off just before the red line. The next day I re-installed the new 195% thermostat from Napa which is what the factory temp for my motor calls for and the temp gauge went close to the red 230% so I pulled that thermostat out and put a 180% thermostat which is now keeping me in the 205-215% temp safe zone. Seems I had 2 issues one being a defective new thermostat and the other the head gasket.
In a few days I am going to flush out the Steel Seal because I do not want it to clog up my system later by accidentally adding the extended life coolant which is not compatible. Dex cool is not compatible either according to the directions that came with the product. Today I am still concerned and a bit skeptical of what the long term outcome will be.
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- Something was wrong with my car and I found out by asking a friend of mine who is a mechanic that I had a blown head gasket. I know such a problem like this should be figured out in an instant, but I am not a car guy. In fact, I know absolutely nothing about cars other than they have four wheels! Anyway, my friend who is a mechanic recommended Steel Seal. Of course I decided to give it a try because the sealant would be a lot cheaper than having the entire thing replaced.
At first I was hesitant about trying the product by after speaking with a company representative, I was more optimistic about my experience. Plus, the man even said he would give me a full refund if the product didn't work. With that promise in mind, I had my friend apply the sealant. I am happy to say the product fixed the head gasket and my car runs perfectly fine. I called the company back to tell them about my experience.
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK -- Steel seal works for me. My van was putting white smoke. MY neighbor saw it and confirm what I was thinking. Head gasket problem - big money to fix. I remember SCOTTY KILMER mention STEEL SEAL so I order the product. I followed the instruction as it said its works. Steel seal save me lots of money, I will recommend it.
Used it on my 2004 BMW which was pushing white steam out of my exhaust. In about 2 hours my heater stopped working and my heater core started leaking into my floor on the passenger-side!!! It cost me over 950 bucks to have the heater replaced! This product is very bad. When I called I had to leave a message, them they never called me back.
I recently bought a 2003 Nissan Sentra GXE with the 1.8 engine for my daughter. The car has 109K miles, but is in perfect shape. After a few months I noticed that the car was using about 1 quart a week of antifreeze. I could not find any leaks, but after a while it began to blow white smoke out of the exhaust and I could smell antifreeze coming off the exhaust when it started up. Clearly I had either a blown head gasket or a cracked head. I called my mechanic it would be 14 hours labor (~$1000) to replace the head gasket + parts ($100-$200).
He told me the much better choice would be to do an used engine swap, since the labor to do that was actually a little less at 13 hours. He found one from a crash test car that had 216 miles for $1300, which would bring the swap to around $2500 with misc. parts. He said it would be a really bad idea to do head gasket, since most of the time he has seen other damage to the piston rings. For $1300 more, to go to a nearly brand new engine was clearly the way I intended to go. I did some research on Steel Seal. I was very skeptical, and was concerned it might cause other damage, but I thought I'd give it a try since I intended to swap out the engine if it did not work anyway.
I followed the instructions exactly, left it to cool down overnight. When I drove the car the next day, it appeared to do absolutely nothing to fix the car. The white smoke was not that bad, so I thought I'd drive it a few days and see.
On the 2nd time I drove the car all of the sudden when all the way up on the temperature gauge and the car started running badly. This rise in the temp. had never happened before.
I drove it a few and parked the car. After the car cooled down, I pulled the radiator cap. To my amazement, the radiator was completely plugged with a hard white polymer (note when I added the Steel Seal it was clean metal). Bottom line, now I need a new radiator too. DO NOT put this product in your car, you will be very sorry.
PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA -- I confirmed that I had blown head gasket. I know it is lots of money to repair so I thought I'd give this product a try. I followed instructions to T. The first time is work some but didn't total seal it, I called the company and they did send a second dose. I again did as instructions said. It did work I was amazed but... in couple months it failed. It does not hold. Lifetime warranty only means one replacement not lifetime of car. So the word lifetime is a bit of a misleading word. So do I recommend this? Well maybe for a short fix till you get rid of car but permanent fix, NO!!!! This it is not.
I put Steel Seal in my BMW and the car now runs perfectly. Before Steel Seal car would idle rough and not only blow smoke but water out the tail pipe. After adding Steel Seal and letting car cool, I had to drive car at highway speed for 5 miles before smoke stopped. No smoke now, car runs smooth and strong, heat is excellent. I cannot believe this stuff works. If you have a problem call technical support, they will help.
For instance, they will tell you how to deal with something that is plugged up. One suggestion is to add a bottle of draino, run the car 5 minutes, then flush everything out. The idea is to not use acid, use sodium hydroxide which will not harm metal or rubber. Technical support told me to run the car at highway speed.

Developer Shawn Todd withdraws $100-million proposal for parking structure, public park at downtown's Pacific Plaza
On Thursday the Dallas Park and Recreation Board will get an update on where things stand with Pacific Plaza, the crowded-with-parked-cars patch of cracked blacktop the city's been trying to turn into a downtown park since Quincy Carter was the Cowboys' quarterback. And the board will do so without one of three proposals that promised to use private money to build a public park on three acres bound by North St. Paul, Live Oak and North Harwood.
Late Monday developer Shawn Todd told city officials he's withdrawing his $100-million proposal that would have included not only the park, but an eight-level parking structure stretching over Pacific Avenue that would have included a grocery store. Todd's proposal also called for covering the garage with a massive media screen, and planting on top of the structure a one-day-in-the-near-future residential tower. Todd insisted in April that he would pay for the whole thing, including the $10-million park. All he wanted in return was a small sliver of existing downtown parkland: the shaded piece of concrete known as Aston Park bound by Pacific Avenue, Harwood and Live Oak.
Todd, who also owns One Dallas Center, now says he no longer wants Aston Park — or, for that matter, needs to raze the 17-story, 62-year-old Corrigan Tower at 1900 Pacific Avenue currently owned by record-label chief John Kirtland.
"After spending considerable time, effort and financial resources regarding the above development project, we feel that it is in the best interests of all concerned to withdraw our proposal," Todd wrote in an email sent yesterday. Among the recipients were Park and Recreation Department Director Willis Winters, Office of Economic Development Director Karl Zavitkovsky, Downtown Dallas Inc. CEO and President John Crawford and Dallas City Council member Philip Kingston, who represents that area of downtown.
The full letter is below, but in an interview with The Dallas Morning News Tuesday afternoon, Todd said the decision to pull the proposal was a "difficult" one, in large part because he'd spent quite a bit of time and money on the plans and then working to get downtown residents on board.
"We feel like we had a plan that helped fund a city park, and we hope [Park and Recreation Board] Chairman [Max] Wells is successful in getting the tax dollars, because that's what should be paying for a city park," Todd says. "That's why we pay our taxes. We are the only group of the three that spent time talking to the Downtown Residents Council, and those 10,000 people and growing living downtown want a Pacific Park. Klyde Warren Park is the steak that's actually better than the sizzle, and look what it's done to quality of life as well as real estate values." Todd maintains that his Pacific Plaza could have done for the heart of downtown what Klyde Warren Park's done to bridge Uptown and downtown.
In May the park board was split: Some members were interested in further investigating the three private offers (from Todd, Mukemmel "Mike" Sarimsakci and former Dallas City Council member Ron Natinsky), while others were decidedly against giving developers control of a proposed public park. In the words of Max Wells, "I didn't take this job to build a parking lot. … The city of Dallas voted for this as a park, and I think the money's going to be available." For now, though, it's not. Pacific Plaza may have to wait even longer, likely until the next bond election. Maybe we'll find out more Thursday.
Meanwhile, Shawn Todd maintains downtown still needs the parking garage — two or three, to be specific, including one on the west side. Says Todd, while it appears there are enough surface lots to hold the inbound vehicular traffic, prospective tenants looking to sign long-term leases in downtown office towers want nearby contractual parking. Says Todd, the pay lots on the periphery of downtown aren't helping draw folks inside the CBD. And that, he says, is why he's still looking at a "creative" solution elsewhere in downtown, though Todd says it's too early to be specific.
"There's no villain in this conversation," Todd says, pointing to the demise of his proposal. "Dallas is a can-do city." It'll just have to do Pacific Plaza without him.
His letter follows.

Subject: Pacific Plaza Park Mixed Use Development
After spending considerable time, effort and financial resources regarding the above development project, we feel that it is in the best interests of all concerned to withdraw our proposal. As stated clearly from the beginning, our Downtown Dallas Properties do not need parking. However, there are numerous Downtown office buildings that were built in the 1960's, 1970's and early 1980's on parking ratios for those given time periods that don't meet today's standards. Today's office tenants require 100sf-125sf of floor area per employee as opposed to the old metric of 250sf-350sf of floor area per employee for 1960s, 1970s and early 1980s buildings. This paradigm shift increases the parking ratio to roughly 3 parking spaces per 1,000 sf of floor area for an office building to attract new tenancy. Basically, this is what the new buildings in uptown and the suburbs are designed to accommodate. It's also roughly what the newer building along Ross Avenue were designed to accommodate. Our core Downtown office buildings at best average 1 space per 1,000 sf of floor area. Many of these buildings have recently traded hands in hopes that the current City momentum coupled with recognition by our City Leaders that more, strategically located, long term parking is needed in order for these buildings to achieve economic viability and thus reach their maximum taxable value which which will add to our fine City's tax base will ultimately result in someone solving the downtown parking need.
Our above referenced effort was our attempt to meet this parking need and in turn try and help facilitate the Development and programming of Pacific Plaza Park. To do so, we would have needed a small portion of Aston Park to bring about the development as well as the City's approval to span Pacific Avenue to create enough room to build the development.
Our Downtown desperately needs more green space. A well-programmed Pacific Plaza Park will serve the 10,000 plus and daily increasing downtown residential population as well as the thousands of people that make up our downtown workforce. We have met with the Downtown Residents Council and know that this green space is a top priority to them, as it should be.
Pacific Plaza Park is also a huge priority of Councilman Kingston, as it should be.
At the last Park Board meeting, Chairman Wells stated that it was his belief that the City of Dallas would have a forthcoming increase in tax revenue as a result of City wide property tax revenues increasing. He further stated that he believed the Park Board would be successful in getting monies from that property tax revenue windfall to fund Pacific Plaza Park.
We agree that tax dollars should fund our City park system. We also agree with The Dallas Morning News that private citizen philanthropy towards Pacific Plaza Park would be a win for the City as well. Look at Klyde Warren Park and its tremendous success.
For all concerned, we feel it is best to step out of this current process and withdraw our proposal. We are passionate about creating a viable, activated/programmed Pacific Plaza Park. We are also sensitive to the concerns of Councilman Kingston and certain members of the Park Board regarding the utilization of a portion of Aston Park to facilitate a Mixed Use development that would solve a large portion of Downtown's parking needs and program the park, yet would diminish the total land area planned for Pacific Plaza Park.
To that end, we have been working on other creative solutions to solve the parking needs for downtown that do not diminish the 3.5 acres of Pacific Plaza Park.
We are committed to doing our part to create awareness regarding the need for Pacific Plaza Park.
Thanks for the tremendous job in leading our Park Department. Your professionalism and integrity are refreshing.
All the best,
Shawn Todd, CEO

Part of a downtown street was shut down Thursday night because glass fell off an iconic Dallas skyscraper, police said.
The glass fell from the 72-story Bank of America Plaza where crews have beenreplacing the building's argon green lightingwith LED lights. Police said nobody was hurt.
After glass landed by a DART bus stop across the street, police have closed one block of Elm Street between Griffin and Lamar Streets as a precaution. A few pieces of broken glass are visible from behind the police tape.
The DART bus stop has been moved to a temporary area on Lamar Street.
It's unclear when the street will be reopened. Dallas police said on Twitter that the section of the road will be closed "until further notice."
The tower's lights are scheduled to go back on in November.

In July 2001, red rain fell over Kerala in India shortly after reports of a meteor. When analysed, this red rain appeared to contain red cells, apparently demonstrating that such cells must exist in space and that the theory of panspermia is correct. However, doubts have been expressed about whether reports of a meteor were merely a coincidence. This paper examines historical and mythical accounts of red rain, to establish if these, too, show a connection with meteors.

Pete Fernandez
From the FBHOF:
An amateur boxer at 13, Pete Fernandez turned pro at the young age of 17. One of the fondest memories of his pro career was scoring a seventh round TKO over Bud Harris in Savannah, Georgia on April 3, 1965 on the undercard of the great Sugar Ray Robinson. After leaving the pro ranks, he stayed away from the fight game for several years before returning to the ring in 1995 as a trainer. It wasn't long before he and his wife decided to promote fights. Starfights Productions, Inc., was born in April 2001, promoting such fighters as former lightweight champ Nate Campbell, and top contender Edner "Cherry Bomb" Cherry. Some 60 boxing shows later, Fernandez is still going strong in the fight business, recently opening the Fight Factory gym in Tampa, where he trains several fighters, and offers boxing fitness classes.
Inducted into the Florida Boxing Hall of Fame in 2009.

WELCOME TO Kimo's Vegas ... The Player's Edge!
THE NFL is reportedly unhappy with the KIA Super Bowl commercial "Joy Ride" because it contained impermissible images. It wasn't the scantily clad ladies or the rag doll getting an embroidered "mom" tattoo that rubbed the league the wrong way - it was the ad's use of Las Vegas that spoiled the big game for NFL execs. Auto expert Edmunds says that the ad increased traffic to Kia's Web site by 142 percent.
WHO DAT NATION ... Nevada casinos won $6.86 million on the $82.7 million fans wagered on this year's super game. That's $179,000 more than they made last year.
TWO OF THE oddest proposition bets in this year's game involved someone who wasn't even on the field: The number of times Kim Kardashian would be shown on TV and if Reggie Bush's total yards would be more or less than his aforementioned girlfriend's combined measurements (34-26-39).
SEVEN OUT ... FAO Schwarz in the Forum Shops at Caesars, the AAA five diamond Ritz-Carlton Lake Las Vegas (closes May 2), Krave nightclub and Mr. Vegas Wayne Newton's plane. A rolling stone may gather no moss, but a star's plane gets moldy and incurs storage fees when left abandoned for three years at an airport ... Danke Schoen!
LAS VEGAS had the most foreclosure filings in 2009.
LOCAL REAL ESTATE experts are wondering why investors would pay a premium price of $25 million to acquire 2.15 acres on the corner of Harmon and Las Vegas Boulevard. The property was offered in an auction and the buyers were the only bidder.
RATHER THAN FIGHT City Hall or the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement over a Chinese gaming partner, the MGM Mirage has officially chosen to forgetaboutit and put its 50 percent ownership of the Borgata Casino Hotel in Atlantic City for sale. Boyd Gaming has first right of refusal and can match any offer made for its silent part-ner's share.
CELINE DION is rumored to be returning to the house she built, aka the Colosseum at Caesars Palace ... Her new residency begins in March 2011.
PAULA ABDUL says she's close to announcing her Vegas residency, rumored to be in the space Barry Manilow called home at the Hilton.
AND BARBRA STREISAND is rumored to have turned down a $100 million payday to do a Vegas residency.
TAIWANESE POP STARS Aska Yang and Rachel Liang perform April 3 at The Pearl Concert Theater inside the Palms. The duo came to fame in One Million Star, the Taiwanese version of American Idol.
THE LAS VEGAS SUN has a review of the city's 10 best steak houses. The best beef is the six- to eight-month-old, dry-aged piece from Carnevino in The Palazzo, followed by CUT (also in the Palazzo) and Craftsteak in the MGM Grand. Get the link for the entire list and the complete mouthwatering review at http://www.KimosVegas.com.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU ... KA celebrated its fifth anniversary. Cirque du Soleil's fourth Vegas show combines martial arts, acrobatics, puppetry, interactive video projections, pyrotechnics and an incredible one-of-a-kind stage. Did you know that the sand in the show is actually granular cork that's imported from Portugal?

text: I am in the Pacific NW, and am growing a winter squash, that I believe is Kabocha. It is late August, and the fruits are rather small still, and the plant is continuing to set new fruits. I'm concerned that none of the fruits will grow to harvestable size, and would like to encourage the plant to focus growing energy on the fruits that are already set. Would you recommend pruning for this? If so, should I prune new fruit-set? Whole shoots?

GURGAON: The fast pace at which real estate projects are being constructed in the millennium city may be bringing cheer to buyers, however, it has left earthmovers (service providers) in hanging by a thread. A cheerful lot until a year back, the earthmover rental industry players in the city say that the business is abysmal.
Large construction projects require deployment of heavy equipment including bulldozers and earthmovers among others. Purchasing such equipment only adds to the costs of construction hence companies hired such equipment. This had helped in the growth of earthmover industry in the city for quite some years but not any longer.

Whah.. ayos ang banat mo Lainy, lalong hindi lazy yung cats ang alaga.Delete
Good for me, I'm not into dogs or any kind of pet. I don't take I am good enough to take care any of them.ReplyDeleteReplies
Oovs, I understand where you're coming from. Mahirap nga mag-maintain ng dog lalo na kung yung mga hairy-type.Delete
I love dogs. I used to take care of a Cocker Spaniel and Shitzu breeds. Too bad they died already. Can't bear to have another dog. I don't know if I can endure another loss/death.ReplyDeleteReplies
Go get another one. Lucky for me, my golden retriever is 12 years old last March.Delete
after reading ur post i miss my baby andy (shih tzu dog) someone took him and didnt find him anymore. but thanks for the tip and for sharing this. :)ReplyDeleteReplies
Hope that'someone' is nowhere to be find too. LOl Thanks for dropping by my blog.Delete
I have a thing for puppies! I love 'em!ReplyDeleteReplies
Salamat po sa bakas.Delete
looking at those cute little pugs makes me want to hug em... thanks for sharing these photos.. :)ReplyDelete
cheers :))
I had a dog named "Bayot" before. He's an askal. But he died due to old age..He even lost all his teeth and hair before he died..I missed my Bayot!ReplyDelete
thanks Papaleng for this informative post!
i love dogs, but with my outdoor hobbies right now, I feel like I would be a bad owner if I always leave them behind since most of the nature trails here don't allow dogs to protect both dogs (captured animals) and wild animals. another very informative post from you donald, and really something one would want to know if they are considering to have pets.ReplyDelete
I can't beat your title..hehhehe...they're all cute.ReplyDelete
This dog breeds should suit me as I'm one of the lazy people. =>ReplyDelete
These dogs are really cute but I don't want them as pets. I just dislike having animals at home because of their smell.ReplyDelete
As a dog lover, I'd definitely go for the Greyhound.ReplyDelete
I have a dog now but this stays in Surigao del Sur in our office. I hope to have another in our house . I love to be in companion with dogs as i feel safe and guarded all the time .ReplyDelete
There is a DOG for a LAZY PERSON like me? hahahahaha....yeah you're right Papaleng, mahirap talaga mg'alaga ng mga animals.ReplyDelete
I showed my son (6 years old) this post. He blurted, I don't like those dogs (posted here!) Lol! I told him about this blog and requested for hamsters!ReplyDelete
Request: Please send the link if you have a post about it already.. or please research on it? :)
Thanks! He's really passionate about it, i don't know why!!! LOLReplies
I will definitely make one post about hamsters anfd shared it to you. Thanks for the idea, Gemma.Delete
haha! great info! i would like to have a chihuahua pug and bulldog haha they looks os cute! xxReplyDelete
Pugs for me are the cutest! I'd rather get me one of those than to choose one of those bigger options. :PReplyDelete
My kiddos loves to buy a pug or two. Hopefully, we can afford that breed soon.ReplyDelete
I like pug they are so cute and very huggable. If I will have one dog, it will be surely a pug.ReplyDelete
hihihi.I think bagay sakin ang pug or chihuahua. basta yung maliit lang. Pero right now, I'm more inclined to loving cats eh. siguro di ko rin keri ang ingay ng tahol ng snoopdogs :DReplyDelete
Now I know why I like pugs so much. Hahaha. I used to have Pomeranian and I so love cuddling her. Thinking of getting a little pug soon. :)ReplyDelete
I like the pug kamukha ko talaga sila. Sir Donald if you are a dog what type of dog are you:)ReplyDelete
Well, I disagree with the article on two things.ReplyDelete
First, pugs aren't for lazy people. My girlfriend has three pugs and they shed fur a lot. They also need lots of exercise or they will develop breathing problems. One needs to work hard at keeping the house clean from the fur.
Second, a lazy person shouldn't own a dog.
love the videos, specially the pugs... hahaha... with their face pa lang, solve na araw mo. by their looks, mukhang mas tahimik sila kesa sa chihuahua... hahaha.. Yahweh bless.ReplyDelete
I'm more of a cat person but if I am going to choose among the five dogs listed here, I would choose the pug because of their cute head tilt.ReplyDelete
I love dogs, but to say, it is too expensive to raise one here in the US. The responsibility is immense like having a kid.ReplyDelete
My husband's favorite dog is bulldog but I don't like them hehehe..ReplyDelete
they're all cute, though i'm not a dog lover.ReplyDelete
I'm afraid of dogs, my son has an allergy that can be triggered by animal hair, and my husband has been bitten by a stray dog without provocation. To think that could happen to a person who has been caring for three dogs since he was a child so lazy or not, I think I'd pass on pet dogs.ReplyDelete
thanks for sharing, great information as always! Papaleng, dapat pala isa sa mga ito ang maging alaga namin if ever one day we will have one, hehehe! i like those chihuahua and pugs. :)ReplyDelete
I have a pug and a labrador. They got different personality though. Haha! My pug always want to cuddle and sleep. While my lab is so playful.ReplyDelete
I have a rat terrier. It's really cute and what I like best about that dog, it doesn't grow big and tall.ReplyDelete
Kami din, hindi napabilang sa mga "lazy people".. Hehehe..kase alaga naming mga aso, Black Lab at miniature cocker spaniel and golden retriever mix.. Both are super hyper.. May edad na yung black lab namin, pero 'beast' pa rin pagdating sa energy at harutan.. Yung maliit na aso, cute, pero 'little evil' inside.. Hehehe.. Bruhita ba!! lolReplyDelete
way too cute for a person...no wonder why they were call of being lazy dogReplyDelete
hahaha ! dogs for lazy people. All of the dogs featured in this post are amazing animals !ReplyDelete
What cute lazy dogs for a lazy people like me LOL!ReplyDelete
Awwww so cute!! Pugs are so adorable, especially when they snort whilst walking - they sound like little gremlins! Sim xReplyDelete
I'm not much of a pet-person so any kind of dog that isn't so needy and doesn't require to be trained so much is something that will most likely be perfect for me. Thank you for sharing this list. It's going to be very helpful ( for me ) in the future when I finally decide to get a pet.ReplyDelete
Great article and very true!! :)ReplyDelete
So many cute cute dogs photos.. So nice... I only like to c photo, if really ask me to take care of dogs, it's a no no.. No time for that...ReplyDelete
I love dogs so much! Getting a Husky is always my dream, but now I'm currently having a shih szu so might have it next timeReplyDelete
I love dogs but I'm allergic to them! Meaning, I can't stay in the same place with them for too long, if not I will start getting asthmatic. I think having a pet is a huge responsibility which I hope I can take up in future...ReplyDelete
My children have been begging us for a pet dog. I shall choose from this list because I am lazy. Maybe the bulldog is good? But he drools, that's my only problem with bulldogs. But they're so adorable!ReplyDelete
I completely agree that owning a dog is a big responsibility. The bigger breeds require a lot care! I know cause i owned 3 at one point!ReplyDelete
Dogs are fun to have, but it takes a certain amount of dedication and responsibility to have them in your life. I'm glad there are dogs that demand less of your time.ReplyDelete
This is too cute! I should share to my friends who wish to own a pet soon. I like chihuahuaReplyDelete
I would hope that future dog owners aren't lazy! But this was a pretty informative post into the different dog breeds!ReplyDelete
I think having easier to maintain dogs is better. It is easier to handle them.ReplyDelete
What a great set of adorable dogs. I've never seen a rat terrier before, it looks like an energetic dog that would require extra attention.ReplyDelete
That is such a great post you've put together giving so many details. I think lazy people should buy cats instead of dogs :DReplyDelete
I dont really like keeping pets such as dogs. I feel they are somehow dangerous cos I have seen dogs go wild and attack their owners.ReplyDelete
I love Pugs, they are so cute with their sweet faces, I would love to have one when we leave the flat and move to a house cause I believe one should take care of a dog if he has a garden and a big space where the dog can run and feel free.ReplyDelete
I have friends who have some of these dogs, lazy pala sila, hehehe. Good thing we have Shih TzuReplyDelete
Great article! Ah, I have a dog at home and yes they make the best companion ever! Regardless of the breed, no one should be lazy to spend time with their dog!ReplyDelete
We're a dog loving family! Have friends who own pugs and bulldogs and yet they are very active. Ours are a lab and golden mix and a jack russell and beagle mix. Parang mga askal lang baga...ReplyDelete
Among of all those mentioned above, I would love to have a chihuahua just like Elle Woods in the movie Legally Blonde.ReplyDelete

Her deckhouse side windows are a series of rectangles that enhance the visual mass of her full-beam superstructure, while her prominent bow and raised bulwarks give her forebody the look of a much larger megayacht.
Peeking out over the bulwark's top of luxury yacht charter vessel BIG CITY is a semicircle of glass panels, offering panoramic vistas from the full-beam, split-level master suite. The raised forward portion has a sleeping area with a king bed, literally a throne from which the mega yacht charter client can survey his surroundings. Adjoining areas on the lower level include his and her heads, a dressing/sitting area, and an office.
For thrillseekers, there's a 32-foot Intrepid Small Town model tender – ideal for fishing or high speed watersports. This big tender is perfect for exploring the shallow waters and blue grottos during a Bahama yacht charter.
This spectacular mega yacht was built by Trinity Yachts, one of the United States most honored builders of custom super yachts. This superyacht is the newest 5-stateroom design from Trinity Yachts to be offered for international luxury charter.
The superyacht features sophisticated décor by renowned interior designer, Dee Robinson, and the design is complimented by her distinctive dark blue hull. The yacht is equipped with the latest technology including "at anchor" stabilizers.
After her launch in 2009, the vessel crossed the Atlantic Ocean and is offering summer Mediterranean yacht charter to Americans as well as European clients seeking a Trinity yacht charter vacation.
Five luxurious staterooms can accommodate 10 guests on board.
The main salon and dining room presents a light and airy atmosphere. Forward is the formal dining table with seating for ten passengers. Aft is a spacious living area with plenty of seating and a full entertainment system powered by a Kaleidescape central movie/music server with universal touch screen remote controls. Remote lighting control by Crestron touch screens are employed throughout the yacht.
A walkthrough description of the interior begins with the open-plan main salon and dining area. The dining area is separated by a credenza with a large high definition television. The dining table seats 10 for formal evening service. The main salon (living room) features a wet bar aft with 2 stools. A day head (powder room) is located in the forward section of the salon. There is a glass wall aft with sliding doors to the aft deck.
On the aft deck, two tables join to seat 8 to 10 guests. There is a wet bar, and a TV, and a circular stairway to the upper aft deck and sun deck. A dual stairway on the aft deck leads down to an oversize swim platform referred to as, "the beach" with 2 umbrellas and sun chairs.
The upper aft deck has a large circular dining table that seats 10 to 12. Forward is the skylounge with ample seating, a large-screen high definition TV, large semi-circular wet bar with 4 stools and a Powder room.
The Sundeck features an L-shaped wet bar with 6 stools, a TV, casual dining banquette to port side with seating for 6 and a Powder room. A Jacuzzi hot tub is forward, along with casual seating both port and starboard.
SailAway represents multiple Trinity Yachts for charter; including Destination FoxHarb'r Too, Mine Games, Anjilis, Mustique, and Janie.

Pinterest has 2.2 million daily and 22 million monthly active users who have the potential to act as word-of-mouth ambassadors for their favourite products.
The site has been steadily increasing its market share since it first rolled out in the American Mid-West two-years ago and now it wants UK advertisers and marketers to get involved.
Brands can do this by building boards that explain and share their core values – "things you know they [pinners] would like, things that are helpful, and things that represent your promise to them. Tell your story by telling theirs".
If, as the graphic claims, "the site is driving more people to websites and blogs than YouTube, Google+ and LinkedIn combined", you'd be a pinhead not to (click to enlarge).

Holmes County authorities continue to warn customers in the West Hill Water Association that their tap water is not safe for drinking, bathing or even laundry.
A small amount of an agricultural product got into the water and contaminated the system, officials said.
Residents who receive water from the system are asked not to use it at all. Even boiling it will not make it safe, authorities said. Residents aren't to use it in any capacity, nor should they give it to animals.
The system is being flushed and tested, authorities said.
The warning was first issued Monday. No illness have been reported, but authorities said anyone who experiences unusual physical symptoms should call the doctor.

You get 30% less tread on some fuel-efficient tires, they cost 15% less up front and they run fewer miles to take-off, but does the money saved on fuel because of the lower rolling resistance make up for the shorter overall life?
Many fleets are struggling with that question today. The answer is often anything but clear.

Breathe easy, 'Glee' fans — Naya Rivera isn't going anywhere!
On tonight's (April 29) episode of 'Glee,' dubbed 'Back-Up Plan,' the crew sings songs by One Direction, Lauryn Hill and more.
It's finally here! Rachel Berry aka Lea Michele will make her much-anticipated, but always expected, Broadway debut in 'Funny Girl' on tonight's episode of 'Glee' (April 22), which airs at 8PM ET on Fox.
Jayma Mays looked radiant on the orange carpet at the 2014 Kids' Choice Awards!
Chord Overstreet of 'Glee' was arrested in New York City on Thursday, March 13, or so it seems.
Lea Michele might have posed in a sexy new shoot for Miley Cyrus' fave photographer, but that's pretty much where the comparison between the two singer-actresses ends.
No, PopCrushers, your eyes aren't deceiving you! Those are two different actors ... who totally look alike!

Kung-fu is a general term that in Chinese means achievement through great effort. While it can be applied to any skill that one develops it has become a popular term for the martial arts that developed in China prior to the current communist government. Although there are many different styles of martial arts that have come out of China, most can be described as being of either northern or southern descent. The styles that developed in northern China tend to have low stances and utilize a wide range of kicking techniques. The southern styles tend to have a more natural stance and rely more heavily on boxing techniques. There are also some styles of kung-fu which mimic animals in their movements and fighting styles.
Class Description:
The general work out program includes stretching, breathing exercises (Qi-gong exercises), warm-up drills, moving and coordination drills, self-defense techniques, and forms of training in both northern and southern styles. Students will learn how to apply and escape from holds, joint locks, throws, and takedowns while developing the proper technique for quick strikes and submissions. Once a student is ready they will begin to learn various forms that will reinforce attack and defense techniques.
All Levels are welcome. Click here for more information on class registration.

CONRAC People Mover Trains Arrive Right on
Built in Japan, shipped across the Pacific Ocean and now ready for use at Hartsfield-Jackson, the first of 12 people mover cars that will carry passengers to and from the Consolidated Rental Car (CONRAC) facility at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International have arrived.
Early morning fog hung low over the CONRAC construction site recently as engineers and technicians from Hartsfield-Jackson, Archer Western Contractors/Capital Contracting Company Joint Venture and Sumitomo/Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of America prepared the first of four vehicles scheduled for installation.
Using a rectangular steel-framed harness designed by Mitsubishi, a 150-foot boom crane hoisted the first 37,000-pound vehicle onto the elevated automated people mover (APM) guideway.
By noon, the fog had given way to bright sun as the last people mover was gingerly lifted and placed on the guideway in front of the APM Maintenance & Storage facility, which will house the cars as well as the automated train control system and power distribution system.
Testing of the cars and control systems will begin late this year. An additional eight people mover cars will arrive at the Airport this summer. Once open for business, these cars will operate in tandem coupled with each two-car train capable of accommodating more than 100 passengers and their baggage.
Atlanta is the fourth-largest rental car market in the country. In fact, more than 2 million Hartsfield-Jackson passengers rented vehicles last year. This is projected to grow to 3.3 million rental car customers by 2015. CONRAC and its APM will also eliminate more than 120 rental agency shuttle buses from terminal roadways once CONRAC opens in November 2009.

Interview with Fred Nauman
And again, sort of sort it out. Where did you assemble and how did you plot your strategy about going in?
Ah, we, a number of us, ah, from each school usually, one, two, or three people who were, who were sort of in the leadership, ah, and of course the, ah, thirteen who had been fired most often. Ah, would meet almost daily, in, in the neighborhood cafeteria and talk about what's going to happen next or we'd talk on the phone. Usually, Sandy Feldman, ah, met with us, ah, and we would, if we were supposed to go back to school, we would agree to meet usually a block or two away from the school and go there together since alone it would have been a terribly frightening thing. That, that was the most usual way that it was done.

A 5-inch-long pipe bomb located on a Yosemite Park picnic table Monday afternoon by a man and his grandson playing ball was destroyed by Manteca Police bomb squad members at about 6:30 p.m. two hours after it was found.
A well-dressed motorist was stopped and arrested by police in the parking lot of a North Main Street drug store Wednesday morning after they learned he was in town. They searched him out on charges that included altering his pay checks from a Manteca business last October and a no bail warrant for a vandalism conviction.
It wasn't a banner year for criminals.
Four suspected gang members were stopped by Manteca Police Monday afternoon after two citizens called saying someone was driving throughout the community pointing a small hand gun out the window of a late'80s Honda sedan.
FRENCH CAMP – The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office has set up a system to allow witnesses to text message them with anonymous tips. The tip is sent to a main server that is not associated with any law enforcement agency. The Internet-based systems route messages through a server that encrypts cell phone numbers before they get to law enforcement, making tips virtually impossible to track. With the server stripping the text of any identifying information before sending the tip to the Sheriff's Office for which it was intended.
One teen was shot and two others received knife wounds Friday night inside and outside of the Marketplace Theater on West Yosemite Avenue in what police described as a gang fight involving teens dressed in red and blue.
LATHROP – Criminals only need opportunity to make you a victim. It's up to you to deny them that opportunity.
Manteca's crime rate has dropped for the 21st consecutive month.
Pour patterns found following a Sunday morning house fire led Manteca firefighters to believe the blaze had been intentionally set throughout the residence.
FRENCH CAMP – Two San Joaquin County Correctional Officers suffered minor injuries while trying to physically subdue a combative inmate at San Joaquin County Jail Tuesday morning.
Six teenage taggers with red and black paint on their hands were detained by Manteca Police shortly before midnight Saturday after the officers spotted fresh paint on 100 yards of sound wall.
LATHROP – The victim of a drug transaction gone bad in an area just south of Lathrop City Hall was able to call the police which resulted in the suspect being arrested and booked into the San Joaquin County Jail.
Six shots rang out near South Main Street and Mission Ridge Drive in what was an otherwise quiet Super Bowl Sunday afternoon. Three shots hit their mark.
LATHROP - The Taco Bell fast food restaurant on Harlan Road was robbed at gunpoint at about 9:30 p.m. Wednesday with two men making off with an undetermined amount of cash from a register.
Three teenagers – two from Stockton and one from Manteca – were arrested Tuesday night for impersonating police officers in traffic stops.

|Characterization of Materials Using an Ultraviolet Radiometric Beamline at SURF III
|January 01, 2000
|The completion of the upgrade of the synchrotron facilities at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has yielded a better-characterization broadband source of ultraviolet (UV) radiation at the Synchrotron Ultraviolet Radiation Facility (SURF III). A crogenic-radiometer based facility that uses the monochromatized radiation from SURF III has been established on beamline 4 (BL-4) to characterize detectors and optical materials in the wavelength range from 125 nm to 325 nm. This upgraded cryogenic radiometry facility will be used to measure the spectral responsivity of detectors in the UV with a relative standard uncertainty of less than 10-2. To demonstrate the capability of BL-4, we have performed a transmittance measurement of calcium fluoride (CaF2). Accurate transmittance measurements of optical material in the UV are urgently needed to evaluate which materials are the best choices for use in making lenses for UV lithography. A study of CaF2 in spectral transmittance, surface scattering, and surface absorption is presented.

"We need for folks to continue to assist us in our goal," Kyron Horman's family said in a statement Wednesday, six days after authorities launched a massive search for the boy who was last seen at his elementary school in Portland, Ore. "Please search your properties, your cars, your outbuildings, your sheds. Also check with your neighbors and friends who may be on vacation or may need assistance to search their property."
"There are a lot of resources out there to help," the statement, which was read by Multnomah County Sheriff family liaison Capt. Mike Shults at a news conference, continues. "Please don't stop."
Shults said the boy's parents would not be speaking publicly because they wanted to keep the focus on finding Kyron. However, they also wanted to thank the public for their "interest in finding their son" and that "the outpouring of support and continued efforts strengthens their hope."
Sixty trained searchers and volunteers have been helping to find the boy, and another 17 agencies, including the FBI, who interviewed nearly 200 of Kyron's classmates and their parents at Skyline Elementary, are also assisting with the investigation, says sheriff spokeswoman Mary Lindstrand.
Investigators are also planning to start a larger-scale statewide search by Thursday, said Capt. Jason Gates. Officials say they have been focusing their search on specific locations this week after more than 1,200 tips poured into the tip line.
The second-grader's stepmother, Terri Moulton Horman, said she watched Kyron walk to his classroom Friday morning after the two visited the school's science fair.
But when he never made it home on his scheduled bus that afternoon, his parents called Skyline. Staff at school reportedly had not seen the boy, described as 3'8" and 50 lbs., with brown hair and blue eyes, in class that day.
On Sunday, the sheriff's department said it was not calling Kyron's disappearance a kidnapping but rather a "missing endangered child" case because he was last seen more than two days ago and since search efforts had been hampered by rainy weather.

by Chason Gordon
– The Capitol Hill Times –
Voting is a great way to feel engaged with society. Whenever I cast a vote for the NHL All-Star Game, or for a multiplayer map in Halo, I really feel like I'm making a difference. You can't sit these things out. This November we have all sorts of issues to vote on, like gay people getting married, gay people smoking pot, and gay people rebuilding the seawall (my producer is franticly waving at me, but I don't know what it's about). Naturally, I want to talk about the seawall. Perhaps you think that gay marriage and pot legalization are more important, but let me ask you this: how are you going to get married or smoke pot when everything's under water? Exactly. (I was head of the debate team in prison.)
Before we discuss this further, it's important to distinguish between a seawall, a seafloor, and a sea-ceiling. A seawall stops water from eroding our land, a seafloor prevents fish from falling into the earth's core, and a sea-ceiling keeps certain fish from getting the jobs they want (bam!).
The seawall is what we're voting on, because the other two are Aquaman's problem. It was originally completed in 1934 (a good year for wine) as part of an effort to expand the city's waterfront, ease train and automobile traffic (with Alaskan Way), and provide a level surface for unloading cargo. That sounds like important stuff, so the city grabbed some wooden platforms and dirt and shoved it into a hole. "That should do it," they said, stomping on the pile. "Let's get lunch."
For years we lived with this peace of mind. "Sure I can meet you at Ivar's," a girl would say to a guy, "it's not like the seawall is going to collapse." "Son, I promise your mother and I will never get divorced. Our marriage is as sturdy as that seawall." "Don't worry Mr. Thomspon, this pacemaker will last as long as long as the seawall. Mr. Thomspon?" (You get the idea.)
But like the corpse beneath the floorboards in Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart," guilt was driving us mad (look who's using his sixth-grade English class!). We soon discovered the seawall was in a state of disrepair, and that much of the supporting timber had deteriorated. The city put forward a $290 million bond measure for the voters to approve. They released a video, a scary video (directed by Roland Emmerich). It suggested that if we don't repair the seawall, an earthquake could bring the viaduct down, sink the waterfront, and leave Seattle in an apocalyptic nightmare, where flesh was currency and savages wore necklaces of horn-rimmed glasses from the hipsters they killed.
So what happened? The breakdown of the seawall is due to pressure and time. That's all it takes really, pressure and time. That and some goddamn wood-eating gribbles (I like movie references!).
Now I've been talking about gribbles from day one. Day one! I remember watching the construction of the seawall in 1934 (I'm immortal like Ra's al Ghul), and saying to my friend Pete, "Gribbles will eat through that goddamn wall, right through it. You can be sure of that. One time I seen a single gribble take down an entire forest! Ate my house too. Swear to it. Them little shrimp-like crustaceous bastards loves the wood. They loves it!" Pete and everyone else all called me crazy, but who's laughing now? No one? Shit.
Apparently, standing on the dock and shooting the gribbles with a shotgun (as I've been doing) is too little too late. The seawall must be replaced, mainly because the removal of the viaduct and the reconstruction of Alaskan Way can't be completed without it. We like to do things backwards in this city. It's like buying a pair of pants that don't fit to force yourself to lose weight.
Perhaps you're reading this article and thinking, "Enough with the jokes Chason, just tell me how to vote. You're the most trusted person on this issue." Aww, thanks!
Well, it's complicated (because I don't know the difference between a bill, an initiative, and a ballot measure). One on hand, since we're already going through with the viaduct replacement and a new waterfront, we should probably replace the seawall. On the other hand, I don't live anywhere near that part of the city, and I rarely travel through there, so if an earthquake struck, would I really care that much? It's hard to say. I don't want anyone to die, but, you know, Ivar's has plenty of locations, and that aquarium, let's be honest, sucks. What?
Vote Gribbles 2012!

[Page: S4464]
Mr. COCHRAN. Mr. President, I am pleased the administration has decided not to contest condition 9 in the resolution of ratification now before the Senate. That condition makes the advice and consent of the Senate a condition precedent to the addition of parties to the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.
Any agreement between the administration and the Government of Russia or other states that were part of the Soviet Union which purports to enlarge the ABM Treaty by adding new parties must be submitted to the United States Senate and a resolution of ratification approved by the Senate before it will have the force and effect of law.
There are important reasons why it is necessary for the Senate to insist on its constitutional role in treaty making in this resolution. The administration has announced its intent not to submit a memorandum of understanding on succession to the Senate for advice and consent to ratification, and it purports to transform the ABM Treaty from a bilateral agreement into a multilateral accord.
The addition of new parties to the ABM Treaty clearly would have serious national security implications for the United States. It would make it much more difficult and time consuming to negotiate other changes in the treaty that may be considered necessary in the future to protect our security interests.
Unless the Senate insists on fulfilling its advice and consent responsibilities with respect to the ABM Treaty, there may be a mistaken view taken by the administration that a demarcation amendment being negotiated now with Russia could likewise be the subject of an executive agreement without the benefit of Senate ratification.
I am concerned that by our inaction the Senate could be forfeiting its constitutional role in the making of treaties. It should be clear that no treaty or material change in a treaty can be entered into by our government without the consent of the Senate. That is what the Constitution says, and that is what condition 9 says, and that is what the Senate says today as it provides advice and consent to ratification of the amendments to the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe Treaty.
