Jean Leavey always knew she wanted to open a dance studio. But she never realized how young she would be when she did it.
At 20, after attending Nassau County College and abandoning her dream of dancing professionally, Leavey shopped around Whitestone to find the perfect space to create her school.
It has been 20 years since then, and the Dance Project, at 150-41 24th Ave. in Whitestone, is still growing strong.
This is a very personal studio. We like them to feel like theyre part of a family, part of a team, Leavey said while sitting at the front desk of her dance school. The desk is her least favorite place to be. Normally she can be found teaching tap and jazz, or choreographing for their annual show.
She fosters an environment where hard work and enthusiasm is valued over sheer natural ability.
I do not believe in competition, she said. I feel that females in life have to compete so much more than males, anyway. In her classes, its the most dedicated students who take center stage, not just the more talented ones.
I describe us as a necklace, Leavey said. A necklace of beads and we, the teachers, are in that necklace.
Diva-hood is discouraged, she said, because it throws off the balance of teamwork and cooperation that the school prides itself on.
You have girls in all shapes, in awkward parts of their lives, she said. I would like them all to feel good about themselves, not just the ones who are underweight.
A mother of two girls, ages 13 and 9, Leavey understands the female experience in all its complexities. She said jokingly that she would love to write a book someday about a womans journey, from every age groups perspective.
Hairstyles have changed, but a girl is just a girl, she said. I get such an insight into what makes a 10-year-old happy or what happens when its prom time. I have parents, adults who dance and I hear whos angry at their husband.
With a sticker on her wall, Always remember youre unique, just like everybody else, Leavey said her mission is to teach everyone self-acceptance.
Through ballet and modern dance, taught by Carolyn Lanfredi and Stacie Owen, and tap, jazz and hip-hop classes taught by Gina Garibaldi and Leavey, young dancers can develop in any style they like.
I encourage the students here to take ballet. They have an extra grace, she said of her ballet dancers. Some of her students are also on pointe and some do modern dance, which was not offered when Leavey was growing up.
The world out there for a dancer is very different than when I started, she said.
Her dream of becoming a professional dancer when she was younger ended after she realized how much she would have to give up for her art.
I learned that there were people who were 10 times better than me and others who were 10 times better than those people, all who wanted to do nothing other than dance, she said.
Having a family was a priority and she accomplished that goal while completing her college degree and running the studio.
After I had children, it became so much more intense for me, just the precious life of a child coming into me, she said.
Now teaching dance and reinventing her school like she does through creating programs such as the all-boys hip-hop dance class that will start this fall keeps her invigorated.
Kids really want to be here, she said. Im the luckiest person.

I have recently bought an Apple iPad Pro (128 GB, WiFi) to replace my old Windows laptop. I use Zotero as a reference manager for all the references I encounter during my time as a student. Zotero is a very easy way to manage your references. It can also be used as a digital library for all your eBooks. Unfortunately, there doesn't exist a native Zotero iPad app. But there are a few apps that can connect to your Zotero library. I use PaperShip by Shazino. It is a great app for viewing your Zotero (and Mendeley) content, however, PaperShip is not ideal for managing your library.

"Charming story, wonderfully preformed"
Sometimes I listen to a book because I know it is the only way I will be able to read it. In this instance, I think I wouldn't have enjoyed reading this story nearly as much as I enjoyed listening to it. It is detective fiction lite, a true cozy, the violence is minimal and the plot fairly conspicuous, with characters and setting interesting enough to hold things together. The pace might have been too slow had I been reading the book myself, but Barbara Rosenblat's performance, and it is assuredly a performance rather than narration, had me searching for the second book in the series as soon as I finished the first.
This is not a hard hitting or terribly thought provoking book, it isn't meant to be, but it kept me quite entertained without requiring my full attention.
"Miss Marple in late 19th century"
I loved the book! The story is developing nicely and you are led to false beliefs so that you are not able to predict the outcome of the story.
I write Miss Marple in the late 19th century since the character of Miss Peabody seems to be quite alike in matters of unorthodox thinking and her nosiness even if she is a just at her early thirties.
And over all I very much liked the performance of Barbara Rosenblat. Actually it was her performance with led me to buy the audiobook without having read a wrap-up of the store. Her voice and accent fitted my idea of an unusally confident and open-minded lady perfectly and by the time I had finished listening to the sample I was already addicted to the story.
Miss Amelia Peabody since I love strong female characters :-)
Well I also loved Radcliffe Emerson with his stubborn and provocative air...
"The first is the best ..."
Rollicking good fun.
The pacing of the plot - the action and the character development - is terrific. It's not particularly difficult to guess what's coming next but it so delightful listening to the story unfold, who cares?
In this reading, Rosenblat does an outstanding job performing Amelia Peabody. In the later novels I find that Peabody's "voice" becomes more strident and annoying, but here, it's perfect.
"I really liked this"
I think the narration was well done and believable.
There were many, it's an interesting journey that goes from moment that you have waited for to moment that you are waiting for.
"Excellent 1st book"
The story was wonderful and the narrator was excellent. She performed the different characters so that you got a really see them.The story line was good and the language very descriptive so good almost feel the heat of the dessert.
Amelia Peabody.....such a great character....despite being a female in a very male world she never let it stop her. She controlled her destination mostly!
Amelia Peabody....
"One of my favorites"
Ove read this book a few dozen times. And I've listened to it twice. The narrator can be so great! But, I hate listening to her breathing and swallowing. I can't listen with earphones because it annoys me so!
I'm a retired teacher who loves to read, knit and enjoy my grandchildren. I tend to read mysteries and thrillers.
"Great Fun!"
The main character, Amelia Peabody, was such fun! An independently wealthy, educated woman with an indomitable spirit and wry sense of humor in a world ruled by men! The setting in Egypt made the mystery even more enjoyable.
This is a cozy mystery to be sure, but I still was kept guessing about the resolution until later in the book.
I look forward to reading more of this series. Barbara Rosenblatt did a great job with the narration. At first, I found Amelia's voice to be overdone, but after a few chapters, it seemed just right for her character.
It was a great story with a very amusing narrator. Amelia Peabody is just a fun, entertaining character.
I never could figure out what was going on, despite the limited number of suspects, which is a really good thing in a mystery!
The story was very well-paced, and the wit of the narrator made reading so enjoyable.
No, but I did enjoy it!
Initially, I found the reader irritating, but I just had to get used to Amelia Peabody's very affected English accent, which I'm sure is an accurate reflection of her social standing and her time period. It was just hard for my very American ears to get used to at first, but in the end, I thought the reader did a good job bringing the character to life.
"Easy Listen"
Good easy book to listen too. No sex, or foul langage. Would listen to another of her books. Narrator was very good also, did the voices well and easy to listen to.
"Super fun, easy adventure story"
This is a fun listen....Barbara Rosenblat brings the characters to life so make sure you purchase the one that she narrates. The characters are fun, the story is entertaining and you feel transported into their adventure. I will most definitely listen to the entire series!

Last season, the ratings for ABC's Scandal were bigger than they had been in year one. Will this show continue to get more popular in season three? We'll have to wait and find out.
On Scandal, Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) protects the images of the most powerful people in Washington but now it's her own reputation that needs help. This season, the cast also includes Tony Goldwyn, Katie Lowes, Bellamy Young, Scott Foley, Guillermo Diaz, Columbus Short, Joshua Malina, Jeff Perry, and Darby Stanchfield.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show's likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
How are your shows doing? Check the season rankings: ABC | CBS | The CW |FOX | NBC
5/8 update: ABC has renewed Scandal for a fourth season.
Final season averages: 3.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.11 million total viewers.
Note: If you're not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
For comparisons: The second season of Scandal averaged a 2.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.48 million total viewers.
Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an "*"). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you still like the Scandal TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?

I wish I could be of more help, but here are my "sort-of" answers.
A. Your parents should be able to name you on the deed even though you are not on the loan.
B. This is a question for a CPA. Realtors are not legally authorized to give this type of guidance.
C. This would be a good question for a real estate attorney (or probate attorney) or your parents' lender. Typically, being on the deed is different and separate than being on the loan.
Sorry I can't answer better than this. I do have some great resources I could set you up with for attorneys, lenders and CPA's if you would like. Just call me at 503-522-5803.
Good luck!

Roaming Media
Portable music doesn't need to be restricted to headphones. Here's a step-by-step how-to on setting up a music system that follows you around the house like a puppy.
Like many of you, I store all my music digitally on a central server in my home. The problem is when I walk from room to room, my music doesn't come with me. I could carry around an iThingy or put it on my phone, but I'd rather not have to wear headphones, and no matter how awesome they are in their class, tiny phone speakers still are tiny phone speakers. Fortunately, I have a lot of computer hardware lying around from past upgrades, so it was fairly easy for me to come up with some small, older systems for each area of my house. Now, instead of listening to music on a little device, I use a device to tag my location and have the music follow me wherever I go.
The system is easy to build and uses mostly off-the-shelf open-source programs. In addition to the player and control system, you need a way of tagging your location in the house. I use the Bluetooth radio on my phone, but you also could use RFID tags, Webcams with motion detection or facial recognition, or pretty much anything else that will let the system know where you are. For this setup though, I'm assuming you're using a Bluetooth device.
The central piece to this project is a server-based music player. I am using the Music Player Dæmon (MPD), a wonderful server-based system released under the GNU General Public License and available from the repositories of most Linux distributions. Install the software with your favorite package management system. In addition to this player, you need to set up a streaming system. Icecast fulfills this requirement and also is widely available. Install it as well.
Configuring MPD is fairly straightforward. The default file for your
distribution is probably very similar to the example below, but you may need to change a
few things. The
music_directory entry should point to the
directory that contains the music files and one
should contain the non-loopback name or address of the server. If it
binds only to 127.0.0.1, outside boxes may have trouble connecting to it.
audio_output section defines where the music goes when it
plays. In this case, you want to transcode it to Ogg format and send it to
the Icecast server on the same host (although you could run these on
different systems if it makes sense for your setup). Within this section,
the port and password must match the configuration for the Icecast server,
and the mount will define the portion of the URI after the server name.
For simplicity, I've left it at /. If you start MPD after
this configuration file is set up, it will be missing the Icecast socket
to play to, so you need to set that up next. I've added some comments
to the configuration below to help document the options there:
music_directory "/data/arown/files/audio" #Point this at
the top level of your music directory. If you have more than
one, a directory of symbolic links may help you.
playlist_directory "/var/lib/mpd/playlists" #The following
files must be writable. I suggest making the directory owned
by the user running MPD.
db_file "/var/lib/mpd/database"
log_file "/var/lib/mpd/log"
state_file "/var/lib/mpd/state"
user "mpd" #This is the user that the MPD
program runs under. I highly suggest making this a nonroot user.
bind_to_address "templar" #Place your machine name here, not
"localhost" or "127.0.0.1" if you want to reach the MPD
server from another machine.

starting and stopping the MPD player as well as building
playlists and changing server side volume.

encoding "ogg" #This is the media type for the stream,
if your player wants MP3, use encoding "mp3" and be sure you
have the proper tools to transcode to MP3 on your box.
name "MusicPuppy"
host "localhost" #The name of the box
that the Icecast server is hosted on.
port "8000" #The port of the
Icecast server.
mount "/" #This is the part
of the URI after the hostname. I have left it to "/" for
simplicity, but often things like "/music.ogg" are used
to make it clearer to the user.
password "passthis" #The source password to the
Icecast server. You probably should change this to something
complex because you'll never have to type it in.
bitrate "128" #The bitrate to transcode to. You
may want to raise or lower this based on your CPU, bandwidth
or your quality preference.
format "44100:24:2" #This is three variables:
44,100 represents the sample frequency, 24 is the bitwidth,
and 2 is the number of audio channels. Experimenting here
may give you better or worse quality, depending on your audio
hardware and number of speakers.
filesystem_charset "UTF-8"
In order to finish off the server portion, you need to configure Icecast to stream the music it receives from MPD. The sample Icecast configuration file is quite long, but I've cut out the areas that I've changed.
Make sure that the source-password here matches the password from the MPD server. This allows the MPD server authorization to stream music to Icecast:
<!-- Sources log in with username 'source' -->
<!-- This password must match the MPD password above -->
<!-- Relays log in username 'relay' -->
<!-- Admin logs in with the username given below -->
Be sure that the bind addresses and ports are correct. The bind address can be localhost if the MPD server is on the same box. The port must match the port from the MPD configuration above:
While you're in this configuration file, change the default passwords from "hackme" and "hackmemore" to something more secure, and check the location of the logs for debugging. Mine are in /var/log/icecast, but yours may vary.

Evidence of Ceremonial Bridge Found in Japan
Thursday, January 28, 2016
SAKAI, JAPAN—Five new boreholes for piers thought to have supported a massive bridge have been found at the Nisanzai Kofun burial mound in Japan's Osaka Prefecture. The bridge is estimated to have been nearly 40 feet wide, 150 feet long, and aligned with the center of the keyhole-shaped mound. "It seems likely that people stood by on both sides of the bridge while a temporary casket for the body was taken into the tomb. It gives us clues as to how ancient burial rites were performed at giant burial mounds," Taichiro Shiraishi of the Chikatsu Asuka Museum told The Asahi Shimbun. The bridge, thought to have been used in the late fifth century, would have been torn down after the ceremony. "It is unlikely that a structure of this kind was unique to this burial mound. If they get the chance, we hope researchers will investigate other large tombs as well," Shiraishi said. To read more about archaeology and Japanese history, go to "Khubilai Khan Fleet."

Potential Starting Pitcher Strikeout Rate Decliners
Yesterday, I unveiled the xK% regression equation 2.0 and used it to discuss pitchers who may enjoy a strikeout rate surge in the near future. Today I am looking into the opposite group — those whose xK% suggest a decline in strikeout rate may be imminent. Similar to the surgers, I am only going to list those pitchers with actual K% marks of at least 20%. If he's only posting a 15% mark to begin with, but should really be at 10%, do we really care?
|Tyler Chatwood
|Yu Darvish
|Johnny Cueto
|Masahiro Tanaka
|Jon Lester
|James Paxton
|Adam Wainwright
|Max Scherzer
This list is filled with good pitchers off to great starts and it's fairly obvious that the majority weren't going to maintain their inflated strikeout percentages even without this equation telling us this.
Tyler Chatwood is intriguing in that he's an extreme ground ball pitcher and flashes plus velocity with his fastball. Unfortunately, he throws the fastball far too often to induce lots of swings and misses and his primary secondary pitch, the slider, was barely above average in terms of SwStk% last year. Of course, calling Coors Field home also limits his upside. His xK% is almost identical to where he sat the last two seasons, so this is the same Chatwood we've seen.
Wow. Since I merged data from both here and Baseball-Reference using the VLOOKUP function, I literally had to go back and check Yu Darvish's B-R.com page to ensure I didn't make a mistake. Turns out, there were no data problems and his S/Str percentage is actually down significantly. Both his cutter and slider have induced fewer swings and misses, plus he's suddenly turned into an extreme fly ball pitcher. His velocity is fine and he's throwing more strikes than ever before, so his problems missing bats and killing worms is curious. Given his sub-1.00 ERA and WHIP, you could obviously sell him for as high as can be if you so desire.
Obviously, no one expects Johnny Cueto to maintain a 30%+ K%. But, even his xK% would easily be a new career high. His fastball velocity has jumped over his past two seasons and he's getting significantly more called strikes than he ever has in the past. That's what's primarily driving the xK% surge, so one wonders how sustainable the increase is given his history. Combined with his strong ground ball rate and excellent control, he's not necessarily a sell-high candidate. Though the injury history is something to consider.
Masahiro Tanaka is currently fourth among all starting pitchers in S/Str rate. Yeah, that splitter is pretty good. I'm still wondering how he managed such pedestrian recent strikeout rates in Japan with such an excellent swing and miss offering.
It's too bad that James Paxton suffered a lat injury that sent him to the DL as he was showing everyone exactly why I like him so very much. He only made two starts, but if he qualified, he would rank sixth in S/Str rate among all starters. Combine that with an extreme ground ball tendency and passable control, and you have the recipe for a major breakout. Get well soon!

How do I get my my named removed from the CIBIL?
Description I had made a payment of Rs 50,000 to settle my Citibank credit card dues with a waiver of Rs 10,000 (interest). CIBIL's records still reflect an outstanding of Rs 10,000. How should I get my name removed from CIBIL? In spite of obtaining a 'No Due' certificate from Citibank, other banks are refusing to sanction a home loan.
Expert Answer
You have obtained a 'No Due' certificate from your bank. This means you are no longer a defaulter. You need to inform your banker, enclosing a copy of the said certificate, and ask them to correct the CIBIL data. With regard to the processing of home loan application by another bank, you can explain the circumstances under which CIBIL data was not updated and that you have taken up the matter with a concerned bank. You can even show the No Due certificate as well as the letter written by you for correcting the data maintained by CIBIL.

Great people, Ama...
Great people, Amazing service! I bought a Diesel watch from Howard's. After 2 weeks, found out that the band was defective. I brought the watch back into Howard's for a replacement band, they didn't have any that would fit. I was told to go and find a suitable replacement, And they would reimburse me. I did exactly that, came back with the receipt and they refunded he cost without hesitation. Really great experience, I'll be shopping there more often!

Eric Washburn: Public lands important
"The ownership and management of federal lands is critical to the economy of Colorado mountain towns like Steamboat Springs." — Eric Washburn
Aubyn Royall: Vote against Amendment 71
"Amendment 71 would take away your voting rights by making it more difficult for citizens to participate in the ballot initiative process." — Aubyn Royall
Paul Bonnifield: Public lands issue vitally important
"Voters must know the candidates' positions on the future of national forests, BLM and national parks." — Paul Bonnifield
Mayling Simpson: Financial devastation with ColoradoCare?
"I don't see the predicted financial devastation in Routt County. I see workers with expensive health insurance who will benefit tremendously from ColoradoCare." — Mayling Simpson
Our view: Initiative could save a life
"This deadly scourge (of opioid addiction) threatens every county in Colorado, and initiatives like the one introduced by (Attorney General Cynthia) Coffman are worth supporting." — Editorial Board
Stand for America
Foreign relations, national security and terrorism are possibly the most talked about issues on TV, radio, newspapers and by most politicians and presidential candidates. This has a huge negative impact on our citizens.
Our view: On the right track
Beyond the monetary concerns, hiring an assessment coordinator to take a fearless and thorough look at such metrics as test scores, curriculum and overall student achievement and develop workable strategies for improvement shows that the South Routt School District remains committed to providing its students the best education possible.
Gary DeKoter: Amendment is risk we shouldn't take
"I think this amendment is a risk the people in this state should not take." — Gary DeKoter
Steve Hofman: Amendment 69 would make bad system worse
"Free health care in Colorado will become the 21st century's California Gold Rush, but this time on steroids." — Steve Hofman
Our view: New airport parking system a plus
"We think the money the county spent on the new parking system is a wise investment." — Editorial Board
Joni Stiles: Thank you for everything
"It will not be possible for me to thank every person who helped us during these last nine weeks as I know there are still many I am unaware of, but I will do my best." — Joni Stiles
Erin Biggs: Clean water, sacred land
"The level of love, dedication and peace we experienced at the Sacred Stone Camp has changed each and every one of us." — Erin Biggs
Annabelle Stone: Keep Steamboat as is
"I think that it would ruin the "Steamboat look" for people arriving from the airport to have a five-story building on Lincoln Avenue." — Annabelle Stone
Our view: An ounce of prevention
We were taken aback this week by news that Steamboat Springs Fire Rescue had to respond to a wildfire on Rabbit Ears Pass that was attributed to an abandoned campfire. We would have thought people in the region would have gotten the message by now.
John Lanterman: Project is wrong for Steamboat
"The proposed project at 12th and Lincoln has many negative impacts on the character of downtown Steamboat Springs and should have never been approved." — John Lanterman

08/07/2009Provided by Citysearch -
When I was moving out to California I figured I could always fall back on an Employment Agency for help in finding a job. This place was just a hop, skip, and a jump from my apartment so I figured, what the heck. I went in and all seemed fine. I got excellent scores on my test but then I waited an hour to see the Staffing Agent. Well, he hated my resume. Everyone else has always complimented my layout, but no everything about it was wrong. Fine. After talking to him for about 20 minutes, all the while feeling like he had little faith that I had any skills whatsoever, he sent me home to take some more tests and email him my new resume fixed to his standards. Fine.
I went home and took the tests - passed those with flying colors (98% was the lowest score that I received) , edited my resume and sent everything to him through email as requested. Two days passed and I got a phone call from him. He left a message telling me that my test scores were excellent and he had a job for me. All I had to do was send him my edited resume. Okay, I sent him that already but whatever. I call him back but of course he is not in the office. I'll call tomorrow.
I call the next day and actually get him on the phone. I tell him I'm returning his call and he says ""didn't we talk already?"". I tell him no, he just left me a message saying he had a job and just needed my resume. Now he tells me that he didn't have a job but I did need to submit my resume then he can submit it to the job he might have for me. Way to lie to me on the phone.
I send him my resume a second time. He responds still saying he doesn't like it. So I write him back and tel him I'm not sure what else he is looking for, at this point I was with other employment agencies that loved my resume. He responds that he'll ""Work with it"".
I never hear from him again. Whether I email or I call, he seems to have fallen off the face of the planet and never got me a job.
It seems this is a trend. Don't waste your time.
