Blood Pressure Monitoring Made Easy For Women
Heart disease is the number one cause of death for women over the age of 25, more than all cancers combined.

Heart disease is the number one cause of death for women over the age of 25, more than all cancers combined.
Researchers are inching closer to understanding how common blood pressure medications might help prevent the spread of pancreatic cancer.
Both increased systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure are related to arterial stiffness and may decrease headache prevalence through modulation of the baroreflex arch, which in turn generates hypoalgesia.
Relaxation and stress management approach helps blood pressure control. This story is moved to here.
A new blood pressure medicationTelmisartan is effective in reducing cardiovascular death, with fewer side effects than the current standard of care.
Adding the relaxation response, a stress-management approach, to other lifestyle interventions may significantly improve treatment of the type of hypertension most common in the elderly.
People in happy marriages have lower blood pressure compared to singles and those who are not happy with marriage.
Even moderate drinkers are at high risk for high blood pressure. Previous studies proved heavy alcohol consumption leads to hypertension, but this study shows that even those drinking not that much significantly suffer from blood pressure.
Aircraft or traffic noise boosts blood pressure even when you sleep.
Use of calcium-channel blockers appears to offer no advantages in improving clinical outcomes compared with use of diuretics when treating hypertension among individuals with metabolic syndrome.

• With impeccable timing he would likely disavow, Governor Spitzer made his first judicial appointment yesterday — picking Theodore T. Jones Jr., an African-American judge from Brooklyn, for the Court of Appeals (the highest in our state's counterintuitive hierarchy). Jones, by the way, is the guy who threw Roger Toussaint in jail after the transit strike. [NYT] • We knew that if we stuck with the story of the Joseph Bruno probe, it would eventually get interesting. Pay dirt! The state GOP leader had hung out at Rachel's, a West Palm Beach strip club, on his businessman friend's dime. Dear Feds: More of this and less murky real-estate deals, please. [NYDN] • Speaking of: Real-estate data is infinitely malleable, but here's an upbeat nugget that's hard to misinterpret — property values in New York City rose 19 percent in 2006. That, if you still want to talk about a "cooldown," is double the gain of 2005. The bad news: Taxes will jump in July. [Newsday] • Scientists are struggling to rescue dolphins stranded in shallow waters near East Hampton; four cetaceans have died and fifth was "euthanized." Long Island has been reporting bizarre dolphin behavior all month long, triggered by the freakishly mild winter (coming, by the way, to a bitter end with tomorrow's cold snap). [amNY] • And, not so fast, Jay-Z: While Beyoncé's mom is already sewing Nets' uniforms, the team may first end up in Newark. Mayor Cory Booker is making a play for the franchise, offering to house it temporarily until its New Jersey contract runs out. In other news, Frank Gehry unveiled plans for "Miss Newark." [NYP]

Mystic - Ross Mandell said he's so irritated by what's happened in downtown Mystic, "it's all I can do not to scream."
The owner of Bartleby's Café said the downtown beautification project nearly bankrupted him, and now the Mystic drawbridge won't go down.
The drawbridge, recently rehabilitated by the state at a cost of $14.8 millon, was unable to fully close for about 3½ hours Sunday evening, preventing cars from crossing the Mystic River.
"I heard a loud bang when it went up or down," said Dean Quinones, who was working at The Spice & Tea Exchange Sunday evening.
Employees in shops near the drawbridge said about 15 to 20 pedestrians waited on one side of the bridge, while in many cases, their cars waited on the other. One store manager had to ride across the river in a small boat to get home.
The bridge sides met unevenly so there was no gap for people to fall through, but the center wouldn't fully close, so it wasn't flat. Cars and pedestrians were told not to cross for at least an hour, and the number waiting grew as time went on, employees said.
Then after about an hour and a half, tourists worried about catching ferries or getting home after the holiday weekend began ducking under the red and white signal bars and running across anyway, employees said.
State Department of Transportation workers said on Sunday that the problem, first reported at 5:10 p.m., was an electrical issue. A further explanation was unavailable Monday.
Groton Town police officers said pedestrians were allowed to cross the bridge "at their own risk" most of the evening. The bridge span re-opened about 8:30 p.m.
Store owners said the problem appeared to be a new safety barrier installed at either end of the drawbridge to prevent cars from driving over the edge and ending up in the water when the two sides are open.
Mandell said Sunday's situation was terrible.
"Who wants to get stuck out here for three hours and not be able to move?" he said. "All the people who work down here, who own stores down here, this is their livelihood."
Cheryl Robdau, owner of Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream, said she believes the drawbridge has been stuck at least four times.
"It's like the whole town clears out. There's a mass exodus," she said.
This is the second malfunction of the drawbridge within a month. On June 10, the drawbridge was closed for 90 minutes following an afternoon malfunction that temporarily backed up traffic and forced detours in Groton and Stonington
Robdau said customers kept stopping in and asking what they should do, because they'd never been in that situation before.
She said the issue is not just the lost business, but the risk that people will see the drawbridge as a hassle rather than a historic landmark.
Brian Thomson, manager of The Spice & Tea Exchange, said he loves the drawbridge and finds it a tremendous draw. But he said he hasn't dealt with years of work projects downtown because he is a recent arrival.
He said the latest is he heard the drawbridge whistle doesn't make the noise it used to and must be replaced.

RE: James William Herdon's wife Mary
Thanks for your rely. If I find anything I will certainly let you know. I have contacted the county on another question, and they were very helpful. I did check all the burials listed on the cemetery's online list, and Mary was not among them.
Thanks again.

Hi Dorothy, I have been searching for the burial place of my g-g-grandfather's first wife, Mary Dickey, b 1820 d 1840, She had one child, Lucinda Thompson Herndon, and it looks like she died at child-birth or soon after. I haven't found all the records I need yet. Since James William Herndon and his second, Elizabeth Permelia Walton, are both buried in the Sulphur Springs Cemetery SW 56, Simpson County, Kentucky, I was hoping that Mary would be also...but can't find her.
I am just learning to search, and I would so appreciate any suggestions that you could give me for searching for this grave. I have looked on Ancestry, but haven't found her there yet.
Thanks in advance,

Are you related to Wiley Anderson Murrell?
I noticed that you had left flowers on his Find A Grave Memorial# 39584671. Are you related? If so, would love to share info- we have not been able to determine his parents despite 40-50 years of research.

Jenn Sterger is back and filling the headlines around the sports world once again. The former Florida State cowgirl, turned Jets sideline hostess, turned Versus television personality spoke to ABC news in an interview to be released Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday on the network.
For those who are unfamiliar with Sterger, the brunette bombshell made headlines late last year when a Deadspin report informed us that Favre had sent Sterger pictures of his "little gunslinger" when he was the Jets' quarterback in 2008.
Sterger told ABC that she "wasn't a gold digger" and "hasn't made a dime" from the scandal, and I believe her. After all, this was the first truly public statement she's given since the story broke last year, and anyone who read Deadspin's story knows that they released the story despite her attempts to get them not to.
So, if she didn't want the story released, and hasn't made the talk show rounds to talk about it, how was she angling to profit from the controversy?
If Sterger weren't enough, Albert Pujols is still trying to work out the kinks from an early-season funk, and you should be concerned by his form thus far, while, in the NBA, Lamar Odom just had some bad memories brought back to the surface by a meddling but well-intentioned Kardashian.
Add a brand new Masters champ who could be a one-hit wonder like so many before him, and one of the wildest finishes at Augusta National in recent memory, and you've got a recipe for what's becoming a wild day in the sports world.

Statoil is considering shutting the oil refinery at Mongstad following huge annual losses, reports suggest .
The oil refinery's deficits have cost Statoil 9.2 billion kroner so far, and the company expects them to rise further.
"It's an extremely serious situation at Mongstad," Statoil press spokesperson Morten Eek tells Aftenbladet.
Crisis meeting
The company has already reduced staffing by 200 FTEs (full-time equivalents). Statoil has now asked for a crisis meeting with Labour's (Ap) Trade and Industry Minister Trond Giske, according to an email Teknisk Ukeblad has obtained access to.
In the email, Statoil underlines all possibilities concerning the refinery's future must be considered should the company not manage to achieve profitability there."It's a complex situation that is to do with challenging market conditions with low margins, relatively high cost-levels, and unfavourable conditions for the refining industry in recent years," writes Statoil.
Results for the Mongstad refinery were minus 4.5 billion and minus 3.5 billion in 2009 and 2010, respectively.

Gov. Corbett on Thursday appointed Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley to the Delaware River Port Authority board to replace hospital executive David F. Simon, who resigned.
It is anticipated that the DRPA board will elect Cawley to the chairman's post at its March meeting on Wednesday.
Corbett on Thursday appointed Simon, who is executive vice president and chief legal officer of Jefferson Health System, to chair Pennsylvania's eHealth Partnership Authority.
Cawley will arrive at the bistate DRPA at a tumultuous time, with an ongoing federal criminal investigation of the agency over past "economic development" spending, no permanent chief executive officer, and customer anger over recent problems at PATCO, the commuter rail line that is owned and operated by the DRPA.

It's crazy the things that people are selling on Ebay -- press kits, lanyards, the mario kart stylus pen, folders, stickers, demos, t-shirts, posters, etc. -- practically everything even the daily program for a few cents. And its funny how people add "super rare" and "limited edition" and "exclusive" for even magazines featured at the expo. It may be tempting to bid on the limited KOF Mai poster with FALCOON autograph on it, but everything else is just worthless stuff.

This time, you're better off in the movie theater.
Though the Metropolitan Opera HD simulcasts usually aren't a 100 percent substitute for being there, Rusalka, to be shown at 12:55 p.m. Saturday in six area cinemas, presents serious challenges onstage that are readily addressed with cameras and microphones.
Dvorak's lyrical, expansive fairy-tale opera about a water sprite who falls in love with a prince is treated to the company's long-standing, traditionally handsome Otto Schenk production that's likely to photograph well but presents acoustical and logistical problems that were, at times, glaring at the Jan. 31 stage performance.

Labels Open to Collective Licensing on Campus
Finally. The major record labels are coming around to voluntary collective licensing, as we've been urging (and predicting) since 2003. Last week, TechDirt posted a set of leaked slides suggesting that Warner Music Group has opened a discussion with several major U.S. universities about creating a collective licensing solution for on-campus music file sharing. Wired got more details, TechDirt hates it, Ars Technica is cautiously optimistic, and Portfolio urges more transparency.
Here's what we know so far. Apparently Warner Music opened this discussion with universities some months ago. There is no concrete plan yet, but EMI and Sony-BMG are apparently open to the general idea (leaving Universal Music as the hold-out, which is no surprise, given their reputation as the most backward of the major labels). It's not clear whether or to what extent independent labels have been involved. And the project has a name—Choruss. The chief negotiator for Warner appears to be Jim Griffin, who is a long-time advocate of collective licensing (and member of EFF's advisory board).
Universities would pay Choruss, a new nonprofit collecting society, in exchange for an end to the "John Doe" subpoenas seeking student identities, DMCA notices, lawsuits against students, and legislation mandating copyright surveillance of campus networks. Students who pay will be free to download whatever they like, using whatever software they like, in whatever format they like (and presumably keep it all when they graduate, since there would be no way to claw back DRM-free MP3s). The monies collected would be divided up among artists and rightsholders, based on relative popularity. The rest of the details are still to be determined, including whether it would be a mandatory fee for all students, or an opt-in fee (complete with continued lawsuits for those who fail to pay?). It's also not clear what the fee would be, although those familiar with the talks suggest less than $5 per student per month.
EFF has been pushing for a voluntary collective licensing solution for P2P music file sharing for over five years. And we've noted as well that this approach makes much more sense for universities than the current "sue - surveil - expel" approach urged by the recording industry. So the news that Warner Music has begun discussing this approach is music to our ears.
We have written extensively (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) on why we think this kind of collective licensing approach makes sense. This could be the beginning of a big win for everyone. Fans come in from the copyright cold; artists and rightsholders get paid; the music industry stops the litigation war machine. And it will unleash a new tide of innovative start-ups (who no longer need licenses) to help us find, manage, and get the most from our unlimited libraries of music.
It's not just the music industry and music fans who will be better off. Everyone who cares about creativity and innovation should be eager for a truce between the RIAA and the Internet. The 10 year trench war between the the major record labels and digital technology continues to jeopardize the free and open Internet. In addition to suing more than 30,000 people (including innocents caught in the net) and distorting copyright law in their efforts to kill off P2P software makers, the industry continues to push for ubiquitous network-based copyright surveillance, an idea that already has traction with AT&T and policy-makers in several European countries. Across the world, the push is on now for "3 strikes" policies that will cut people off from the Internet on the basis of unproven infringement allegations. A collective licensing solution could seriously undercut the principal arguments for these policies.
So we are cautiously optimistic. There are lots of hard issues that will need to be addressed. How will a collective licensing approach protect user privacy? What will universities do to stop "leakage" to ISPs whose users have not opted in? Will independent artists get a fair shake from Choruss? But it sounds like the labels are, for the first time, interested in having the right discussion.

Video courtesy of http://youtube.com/pepsiphilippines RH BILL AWARENESS: Contrary to the misinformation campaign being spread by some, the Reproductive Health (RH) - Responsible Parenthood (R) Bill does not allow abortion and will not force any contraceptive methods on anyone. It will not dictate the number of children a family can have. The Bill will respect the moral convictions and religious beliefs of all, but at the same time, protect the unborn child by providing health services for the pregnant mother and likewise save the lives of mother from dying at childbirth. RH-RP Bill will protect, provide and access a full range of safe and effective family planning methods (both natural and artificial) to Filipinos regardless of their belief and non-belief. The Bill is pro-quality life for the whole family. It ensures that more children will grow up secure in the knowledge that they were wanted because their births were planned. It is not against the birth of children and does not advocate that couples stop having children. Rather, it only claims to help them achieve their fertility goals - to have the number and proper spacing of children that they desire. Under the Philippine Law, abortion is illegal. The RH-RP Bill does not, in any way, legalize abortion. In fact, this Bill will help reduce the instances of illegal abortions. Currently 11 mothers unnecessarily die from giving birth daily as per latest estimates of the United Nations. This Bill is committed to protect the health and lives of mothers. It is committed to reduce maternal deaths and infant mortality. It is committed to save babies.

NY Links focuses on improving linkage to care and retention in care and supports the delivery of routine, timely, and effective care for Persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in New York State. We also bridge systemic gaps between HIV related services in order to achieve better outcomes for PLWHA through improving systems for monitoring, recording, and accessing information about HIV care in NYS. We use a regional approach, utilizing the learning collaborative model, to fortify the links holding together communities of practice, and the links grounding them in the communities of consumers they serve.
New York Links was created through a HRSA HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB)-sponsored Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS). Since September of 2015 it is under the Governor's Ending the Epidemic Initiative through the NYSDOH AIDS Institute.
On September 1, 2015, revisions were made to the NYLinks measures. The first submission period for the new measures will be December 1, 2015. The last submission under the old measures was August 1, 2015. There are no submissions due between August 1, 2015 and the first submission of the new measures on December 1, 2015. To view the new measures and the time tables associated with them please go to the Measures Page.
Dr. Bruce Agins leads a discussion at the January 23, 2013 Upper Manhattan Learning Session.
New York State Ending the Epidemic Initiative
On June 29, 2014, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo detailed a three-point plan to move us closer to the end of the AIDS epidemic in New York State. The goal is to reduce the number of new HIV infections to just 750 (from an estimated 3,000) by 2020 and achieve the first ever decrease in HIV prevalence in New York State.
The three-point plan:
1. Identifies persons with HIV who remain undiagnosed and link them to health care.
2. Links and retains persons diagnosed with HIV in health care to maximize virus suppression so they remain healthy and prevent further transmission.
3. Facilitates access to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) for high-risk persons to keep them HIV negative.
Ending the Epidemic (ETE) in New York State will maximize the availability of life-saving, transmission-interrupting treatment for HIV, saving lives and improving the health of New Yorkers. It will move New York from a history of having the worst HIV epidemic in the country to a future where new infections are rare and those living with the disease have normal lifespans with few complications. New York Links is a critical part of this work.

Good post.

It didn't decline 21 points, but rather 33 points.
Did that mark the end of the slaughter?
Hardly. The shares eventually wound up at $70.

Dear friends of Fencing, dear Referee Colleagues!
The quality of our work is on the one hand reflected in our broad knowledge of rules and its enforcement and on the other hand in our regardful, responsible and of course fair contact with the participants. At the head there are the top-performing athletes. Aside there has to be someone who realise, analyse, judge, compare and evaluate their performance and at least who communicate the decision verbally and visually to the athlete and the audience. In whatever sport there is a referee involved. He/she minds the keep of rules and dicides ultimately on win or defeat. No soccer match, no boxing fight, no swimming competition or cycle race, no golf tournament and no sailing regatta, no chess match and not the Formula 1 can do without referees .... without "Men in Black".
Without referee there is no competition and without competition there is no referee
This symbiosis will last as long as there are people who want to match with each other within arranged rules.

Contrary to popular beliefs, many resampling tools are available in standard statistical applications such as SAS and SyStat. Resampling can also be performed in spreadsheet programs such as Excel. Last but not least, arguments for and against resampling are discussed. I propose that there should be more than one way to construe probabilistic inferences and that counterfactual reasoning is a viable means to justify use of resampling as an inferential tool.
What is resampling?
Classical parametric tests compare observed statistics to theoretical sampling distributions. Resampling is a revolutionary methodology because it departs from theoretical distributions. Rather, the inference is based upon repeated sampling within the same sample, and that is why this school is called resampling.
Types of resampling
There are at least four major types of resampling. Although today they are unified under a common theme, it is important to note that these four techniques were developed by different people at different periods of time for different purposes.
Software for resampling
Although the standard errors from the simulations are larger than the observed standard errors, both the observed beta weights of X1 (beta=-.04477, SE=-0.0461) and X2 (beta=.9334, SE=0.249) are very close to the mean of the distribution. The bootstrap result implies that the regression model is fairly stable.
Rationale of supporting resampling
Supporters of resampling have raised a number of reasons to justify the aforementioned techniques:
Criticisms of resampling
Despite these justifications, some methodologists are skeptical of resampling for the following reasons:
Resampling, probabilistic inference, and counterfactual reasoning
Can findings resulting from resampling be considered probabilistic inferences? The answer depends on the definition of probability. In the Fisherian tradition, probability is expressed in terms of relative long run frequency based upon a hypothetical and infinite distribution. Resampling is not considered a true probabilistic inference if the inferential process involves bridging between the sample and theoretical distributions. However, is this mode of inference just a convention? Why must the foundation of inference be theoretical distributions? Fisher asserted that theoretical distributions against which observed effects are tested have no objective reality, "being exclusively products of the statistician's imagination through the hypothesis which he has decided to test." (Fisher, 1956, p.81). In other words, he did not view distributions as outcomes of empirical replications that might actually be conducted (Yu & Ohlund, 2001). Lunneborg (2000) emphasized that resampling is a form of "realistic data analysis" (p.556) for he realized that the classical method of comparing observations to models may not be appropriate all the time. To be specific, how could we justify collecting empirical observations but using a non-empirical reference to make an inference? Are the t-, F-, Chi-square, and many other distributions just from a convention, or do they exist independently from the human world, like the Platonic reality? Whether such distributions are human convention or the Platonic metaphysical being, the basis of distributions remains the same: distributions are theoretical in nature, and are not yet empirically proven. As a matter of fact, there are alternative ways to construe probability. According to von Mises (1928/1957, 1964) and Reichenbach (1938), probability is the empirical and relative frequency based upon a finite sample. Other school of thoughts conceive probabilistic inferences in a logical or subjective fashion. Downplaying resampling by restricting the meaning of probabilistic inference to a certain school of probability may be counter-productive. 2
More than a decade ago, Noreen (1989), who is an advocate of resampling methods, made this optimistic prediction: "The next few years are likely to be an exciting period for those involved in testing hypotheses. Recent dramatic decreases in the costs of computing now make revolutionary methods for testing hypothesis available to anyone with access to a personal computer" (p.1). However, this anticipation was largely unfulfilled during the early 1990s. One possible explanation is that at that time data analysts had to write their own programs in BASIC, PASCAL, and FORTRAN in order to perform resampling procedures. But as illustrated earlier, today resampling features are easily accessible in mainstream statistical software applications, and thus the hope of entering an "exciting period" of data analysis seems to be more realistic. More importantly, resampling does not completely depart from conventional methods. Philosophically speaking, both of them are indeed built upon the foundation of counterfactual reasoning, which is inherent in Fisherian experimental design and hypothesis testing. Today the obstacles in computing resources and mathematical logics have been removed. Perhaps now researchers could pay more attention to philosophical justification of resampling.

Skylight's 'Porgy' a homecoming for Stampley, McKinney
When the Skylight Music Theatre stages "Porgy & Bess" in May, it will be a homecoming for Broadway and London theater veteran Nathaniel Stampley, a Milwaukee native who will return here for the production.
Stampley, who will sing the role of tough guy Crown in the Skylight's production, performed in the Broadway production of "Porgy" starring Audra McDonald, which closed in September after more than 300 performances. McDonald won a Tony Award for her performance. Stampley understudied the roles of Porgy and Crown in the Broadway production, and went on a number of times as Porgy. »Read Full Article(1)

Creator of Sims Games to Leave Electronic Arts
Will Wright Resigns After 12 Years; Publisher Struggles to Develop Hits
Influential videogame designer Will Wright said Wednesday he is resigning from Electronic Arts Inc. amid creative differences with the company for which he created best-selling computer games such as The Sims.
Mr. Wright said he was leaving the Redwood City, Calif., publisher to concentrate on Stupid Fun Club, an entertainment think tank he founded in 2001. He had been at EA for 12 years, most recently leading development of a game called Spore that attracted wide attention but less-than-stellar sales.
In an interview, Mr. Wright said he decided to leave EA because he wanted to design interactive games for devices beyond just game consoles and PCs. He mentioned televisions and even household appliances as "an area where we would conceivably be."
"The model we're looking at is to work from the design outward," he said. "That's where the creative differences were. I wanted to branch out, make it entertainment as a whole."
Mr. Wright's departure comes as EA struggles with its product lineup. Though the game maker has established franchises in sports, like the Madden NFL series, EA has of late had trouble developing new games with mass appeal, which is increasingly important as the development of titles becomes more costly.
"This is definitely a loss of talent for Electronic Arts," said Signal Hill analyst Todd Greenwald. "He was one of their most well-known and respected elders there, and was responsible for its most profitable franchises."
Mr. Wright has been a major contributor to EA's business, particularly through The Sims series, which was first published in 2000. The franchise has sold more than 100 million copies and generated revenue of more than $1 billion so far.
But analysts say Spore, which allows players to control the development of a species from tiny organisms to mature creatures, wasn't widely understood by consumers. NPD Group, which tracks retail sales, estimates EA has sold just a little over a million copies of the PC version of the game and 478,000 copies of the Nintendo DS portable version in the U.S. as of February.
Spore's sales are considered disappointing in view of the fact that analysts estimate the title -- released in September after more than a year's delay -- cost about $50 million to make.
"Spore was so big, so innovative, and so open-ended that it was difficult to communicate exactly what it was about," said John Taylor, an analyst at Arcadia Investment Corp.
EA said the company and Mr. Wright will own an equal share of Stupid Fun Club, with a third, unnamed investor owning a much smaller share. EA will also have the right of first refusal to commercialize any concepts the think tank generates. EA didn't disclose the amount of its investment.
Lucy Bradshaw, general manager of EA's Maxis game studio, where Mr. Wright was chief designer, said it will continue to develop Sims games. "We have incredible talent at the studio, and we continue to invest in those individuals," she said.

Bill would let Vt. deputies unionizeMarch 14,2013Bill would let Vt.
deputies unionize
MONTPELIER A Vermont House committee is looking at legislation that would allow deputy states attorneys, deputy sheriffs and support staff in their offices unionize.
The House General, Housing and Military Affairs Committee took testimony Wednesday on the measure, with the head of a statewide group of states attorneys and sheriffs urging it to proceed with caution.
Bram Kranichfeld, the associations executive director, said there were too many questions about the hybrid governance of Vermonts states attorneys and sheriffs offices.
Historically functions of county government, offices have been coming under increasing state control. But their employees are not part of the Vermont State Employees Association.
Supporters of the union effort say the employees have been shortchanged on pay, and need a voice in negotiating working conditions.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Gov.

South Beach Plans for Memorial Day Weekend: Traffic Loops and DUI Checks
Congrats, South Beach residents! You've survived the beer-bonging, glowstick-waving trafficpocalypse of spring break and Miami Music Week. Now enjoy the fresh air and (semi)abundant parking while it lasts, because you're only a few weeks away from the massive crowds of Memorial Day.
Even worse news: Riptide has gotten its hands on the Beach's plan for preventing this year's festivities from devolving into the police-shooting scene that made SoBe a national embarrassment last year — and the biggest new idea is a nightmarish-sounding "traffic loop."
"My concerns are the same they've been with the last ten Urban Beach Weekends," says Herb Sosa, a community activist, using the informal name for the mostly black party weekend. "I applaud the Beach for trying to come up with ideas, but I still don't see any evidence they can handle this kind of a mass of people."
Urban Beach Weekend
The 20-page plan, quietly presented to commissioners at the end of January by City Manager Jorge Gonzalez, lays out a range of proposals for coping with a weekend that can draw up to 250,000 partiers.

Last year's bacchanal ended in the worst way possible: with dozens of cops shooting and killing one visitor and wounding four innocent bystanders. National TV cameras swooped in, black leaders protested, and some Beach residents such as Sosa called for the city to scale back on Memorial Day weekend.
Gonzalez, who didn't return calls for comment, acknowledges crowds are likely to be as huge as ever this year. His most radical idea for managing the scene is a "traffic loop" that would close all side-street access from Alton Road, Fifth Street, Washington Avenue, and Collins Avenue except to residents; the idea is to keep "cruising" confined to a designated loop. Police would also have the option of closing eastbound MacArthur Causeway if traffic becomes "untenable."
The rest of Gonzalez's plan seems fairly standard: DUI checkpoints, a $1.5 million budget for police overtime and cops from other cities, and a crackdown on open containers and drugs.
Sosa, for one, worries that the traffic loop is untested and that the other measures don't address the huge crowds that amass outside Washington Avenue clubs.
"Once clubs empty out, you've got hundreds of thousands who've been drinking... in the streets," he says. "That's what creates tension. No one wants that, not visitors or residents."

Ed Sullivan Beatles item headed to NYC auction
A large piece of stage backdrop autographed by the Beatles during their first live U.S. concert 50 years ago is headed to auction, where it could draw $800,000 to $1 million.
Face caricatures accompany the signatures that the Fab Four penned between sets of their historic Ed Sullivan appearance on Feb. 9, 1964, which they opened with "All My Loving" in front of 700 screeching fans in the audience and 73 million television viewers.
The current owner of the 4-foot-by-2-foot plastic wall section is Andy Geller, a longtime Beatles collector and television and film voice-over artist. It is being sold in New York City on April 26.
A stagehand is responsible for getting the band members to sign the back of the wall section known as a hardwall traveler, which is rolled back and forth to reveal the next act. It's believed to be the largest Beatles autograph.
"It was a spur-of-the-moment thing," 81-year-old Jerry Gort said. "They came down from stage right from their dressing rooms, I gave them a marker and asked them to sign the wall."
At the end of the season, the wall was destined for the trash heap -- but was saved by another carpenter for a young disabled Beatles fan.
Geller said he purchased the wall privately for more than $100,000 in 2002 without knowing its history. The 53-year-old Geller said he was selling it because "I'm not sure I'll be here for the 75th" anniversary of the Beatles' U.S. invasion.
