4 large flats can host 5-8 guests + 1 small flat ideal for 2 guests
23 guests total can be comfortably accommodated among our 5 Flats.
Children of all ages are welcome. (Cribs available in all units).
My husband, and I, and our young son live on the top three floors of the house (floors 4, 5 & 6).
The lower floors we have converted into completely separate & very private guest apartments (all independent entry) available for short term let year-round.
!! We operate LEGALLY: we are not an apartment building, but a single-family owner-occupied home !!
OWNERS and Maintenance Personnel are ON PREMISES AT ALL TIMES
(this means you can also arrive any time, e.g. after midnight).
Daily maid / HOUSEKEEPING service INCLUDED with every reservation.
[ this is not optional - we insist on daily maintenance !.. but we will never interfere with your stay, we shall do it when you are out enjoying the city ]
The house is EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET and EXCEPTIONALLY SAFE
Set on a tranquil tree-lined Upper East Side block
30 meters off 5th Avenue on 76th Street
Very limited traffic during the day (a car passes at very slow speed every few minutes) and there are almost no vehicles at night.
Naturally no other nuisances of staying in a hotel or a regular apartment building: no noisy neighbors, no slamming doors, no barking dogs...
Moreover, the house is only 30 steps to an Entrance to Central Park.
Our immediate street block is one of the most sought-after and safest block to own and stay. In fact, several buildings on our block belong to foreign governments.
Three exclusive 5-star Hotels (The Carlyle , The Surrey , and The Mark) are only steps away, ensuring heightened SECURITY 24-hours per day.
The Carlyle Hotel regularly hosts not only members of the UK Royal Family, but Presidents of the US and Prime Ministers of European countries.
The Mark and The Surrey Hotels are the preferred choice of celebrities.
Located on 5th Avenue's "MUSEUM MILE".
Within a 2-10 minute walk you can be at Metropolitan, Guggenheim, Whitney, Frick, Neue Galerie, Natural History Museum, Jewish Museum & many others.
We are also located steps from Madison Avenue's exclusive BOUTIQUE shopping mile.
Minutes away from all 5th Avenue Flagship stores: 14 min walk to Barneys, 17 min to Burgdorf Goodman, closest Apple store is 2 min walk away on Madison Ave and 74th, the flagship 5th Ave Apple store is 15 min away.
Naturally, given the most exclusive Manhattan location, we are surrounded by the nicest cafes, restaurants, and gourmet food stores.
Luckily, the very reasonably priced and still very nice stores and eateries are only 3-5 minutes walk away on Lexington and 3rd Avenues. D'Agostino Supermarket is on Lexington Ave and 76th St (4 min walk), Citarella is on 3rd Ave and 76th (7 min).
public TRANSPORTATION:

Our rates vary from week to week, depending on demand, as measured by the going rates at local hotels and the demand data that I have accumulated while hosting guests for the last 9 years.
Rates depend on a number of factors:
- your specific travel dates (high demand vs low demand, weekdays vs weekend),
- the length of your stay (longer stays is less expensive per diem),
- filling the odd 1 to 3 night occupancy gaps between our longer reservations will also lower your per diem rate,
- quoted rates are for 1-2 persons, additional daily charges apply if greater than that.
Additional occasional DISCOUNTS are offered:
- to members of academia,
- to large families who might need the courtesy,
- due to last minute cancellations.
Depending on season and apartment daily rates range from $250 for the gap nights for our Small apartment to above the starting rate of $750 for Large apartments.
Please note that the lowest rate listed is offered only for specific dates which will allow us to close the gaps left in our schedule between periods of longer occupancy.
Please ring me +1-917-825-3188 or email email@example.com for an accurate quote reflecting both your exact travel dates and the number of guests in your party.
!!! Please DO NOT PLACE a "REQUEST TO BOOK" (enter your credit card details) UNTIL you speak to me. -

Julia and Claudio - owners, live in the same Townhouse purchased this apartment in 1990
From my first encounter with Julia she was focused on our stay being World-class! The Appartment was emaculately decorated with old century charm. The elevator I absolutely adored -- it was an antique in and of itself made in the 1900's. Also, my wife suffers from chronic pain and one late night I called Julia and within 5 minutes she had delivered her personal heating pad for my wife to use during the remainder of our stay. Anything we needed was there--from transportation to amenities to housekeeping. The Appartment is located directly in one of the most prestigious neighborhoods on the upper east side. Central Park literally across the street. Each morning my wife and I would simply roll out of bed and step out the front door to local cafe for coffee, espresso and a light breakfast before enjoying world-class shopping and strolls through the park. We have been to New York before and have aways stayed in hotels. Never again! The flat, although small, was perfectly arranged for 2 and was very comfortable. We awoke each morning to light from the street level windows. No view in this Appartment, but we would sit in the common space to read a book or to enjoy the view. Adorable and comfortable is how I would summarize both the Appartment and Julia's hospitality. We can't wait to visit again.
We had a wonderful week long stay at this gorgeous Upper East Side property. We were warmly welcomed and provided with very helpful information about the neighborhood. Staff were gracious and friendly and provided everything we needed.
The area was an oasis of quiet in the city and we felt completely secure.
We are definitely planning to stay again when we return to the city.
This was a perfect apartment for my daughter and I on her first to NYC! Julia (on-site owner) was very helpful from our first phone conversation and throughout our entire trip. The apartment is a great size for 2 with a comfortable queen bed, galley kitchen, with everything one would need to spend a few days or a few weeks. The bathroom in this apartment is quite small but has everything you could need. The apartment is on the lower level of this beautiful 3 story home. This could have made for a dark room however, with the one window and ample lighting throughout the apartment it was well lit and very cheery. The location of this apartment was great being less than a block away for Central Park, city bus lines, and subway. With Julia's assistance we found a grocery store a few blocks away and were able to grab a few items to munch on during our down time, resting from our busy days. The apartment and house was extremely clean and comfortable. Julia gave us a tour of the other apartments available prior to us leaving and each was unique and spectacular in it's own way. I would definitely recommend this property and will call Julia for our next trip to New York.
My two teenage children and I stayed at this wonderful Upper East Side Manhattan property for three days between Christmas and New Years. We were grateful to find this location just the week before the holidays and found it to be so much more than we expected. The location, just about 50 yards from Central Park, is superb. I was able to park my car on the street, walk freely to local restaurants and easily access a cab or walk to the Subway and catch the 6 train downtown to Soho, Greenwich Village and Chelsea. The owners take much pride in their townhouse and Julia is a kind and extremely accommodating host. We will certainly return to this property. We stayed in the Petite Flat which may be cramped for most parties of three. We found it a bonding experience. The other flats are larger and just lovely. We will most likely upgrade to one of the larger apartments the next time we stay at this property.
We are two well-traveled friends from Taiwan staying in the Petit et Charmant Flat for a week and we shall definitely return to Julia and Claudio's place for our future visits.
We arrive rather late in New York and my cousin who lives in Flushing was expecting to see me to get her luggage. Thus, I asked Julia if she can wait for us in my room before I got to their place since it was cold that night. And Julia agreed, more than that, she insisted my cousin to stay in another apartment for the night for free since she was concerned that it would be a long cold way for my cousin to go back to her Flushing.
Over all, the place is very safe with security outside the house 24 hrs and very quiet at night. Julia's responses were always prompt and the maids are very helpful, too. And with the maids around, we were able to leave the luggage in the house on the day of our departure. Also Julia helped store my cakes which I would like to bring back to Taiwan in the fridge. It is really a very nice place and you get your bed made every day and the free personal laundry is also a great feature.
I would definitely recommend this place and will stay in here when I visit New York again. I greatly appreciate their efforts and help!
Julia, your host, is very friendly, helpful and she garantuees a warm welcome and great hospitality. Her preparation is thorough and you feel well accomodated. This is a perfect full service programm. She also took care of our transfer from and to the Airport. The Location in upper east side is perfect and cannot be beaten. In 1 Minute you can reach the Central Park. Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue are in walking distance. The neighborhood provides all conveniences of modern life: A lot of excellent rerstaurants, exclusive shopping. Supermarkets and pharmacies are also close to the townhouse. We can. We can fully recommend the Kappo Masa (best Sushi) but pricy. An excellent Pizza (best in town) you can get at Sarafina, Madison Avenue. For additional advice ask Julia. She is the perfect New-York-Consultant. Next time we will definetly return to Julias house. Savo, Zolo and Noah

Certainly a guy like Tom Brady has it all: Successful career, Super Bowl MVP trophies in his home, tons of money in his bank account, a Super model wife millions of men would die for and a pair of sons to teach the game of football to down the road. Yet, as evidenced in a look back at his Draft day experience, Brady is still not at peace. Not even close.
A thoughtful, even emotional Brady recalled the sting of being passed over time and again, round-after-round during an ESPN segment entitled Year of the Quarterback. The sting of being passed over was so unbearable he had to leave his house to escape the mounting pressure of not hearing his name called. Brady recalled how his slide down Draft boards during 2000 Draft, hurt.
"It was just a tough day, ya know," Brady said as he choked back his emotions. "My mom and dad were there, and they were just so supportive."
Brady's father recalled how Tom was so upset he left the house after the start of the sixth round (four rounds after they thought Tom might be taken), still without hearing his name called.
Brady should have been upset. He held a share of the National championship which he won as a backup to Brian Griese at Michigan. He piloted Michigan to two bowl game victories when he became the team's starter, with wins over Arkansas in the Citris Bowl and Alabama in the Orange Bowl. The names coming off the board were less accomplished. They certainly couldn't have been better than this California kid.
Aside of Chad Pennington - who was selected in the first round -- the rest of the quarterbacks taken ahead of Brady weren't exactly big names. Most had little to no success at the next level. The 49ers took Giovanni Carmazzi in the third round (65th overall). Chris Redman went to Baltimore later that round (75th overall). Tee Martin went in the fifth and Marc Bulger in the sixth. Still Brady didn't hear his name called.
Perhaps the ultimate insult was when the Browns, a team desperately in need of a quarterback, opted to take little known Spergon Wynn from Southwest Texas State over the Big Ten player. Next came Brady's turn, and the relief was evident as he recounted how he felt at the time.
"Finally when the Patriots called, I was so excited," Brady managed. "I didn't have to be an insurance salesman. My family was all there and we were so excited. Thank God I got picked [there]."
And the rest, as they say, is history.

Consumer prices up 0.3 percent in March
April 17, 2002
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.3 percent in March, following increases of 0.2 percent in each of the first two months of 2002.
The energy index, which declined 0.8 percent in February, advanced 3.8 percent in March. The index for petroleum-based energy increased 8.0 percent, and the index for energy services rose 0.2 percent. The food index rose 0.2 percent in March, the same as in February, reflecting another large increase in the index for fruits and vegetables.
Excluding food and energy, the CPI-U rose 0.1 percent in March after increasing 0.3 percent in February. A smaller increase in the index for shelter and a decline in the index for tobacco and smoking products accounted for the deceleration in March.
For the 12-month period ended in March, the CPI-U increased 1.5 percent.
These data are a product of the BLS Consumer Price Index program. Find out more in "Consumer Price Indexes, March 2002", news release USDL 02-222.

This will be a showdown of ants versus elephants. Arizona is tiny compared to Stanford, especially on defense. The Cardinal attack may be the biggest in the nation. Rodriguez, meanwhile, has implemented his 3-3-5 defensive scheme to highlight his team's athleticism.
The system features the standard cornerback and free safety slots in addition to two rover positions coined "Spur" and "Bandit." Tra'Mayne Bondurant and Jared Tevis man these two secondary positions but operate all over the football field. Bondurant, in fact, leads the Wildcats with 7.5 TFL, while Tevis' 42 tackles are good for second on the team.
These numbers verify that Arizona attacks the offense from unconventional angles to make up for its lack of size up front. This disadvantage is significant. Dominique Austin (285 pounds) is the squad's heaviest defensive lineman, a good 65 pounds lighter than the 340-pound Hawaiian behemoth Stanford had to deal with in Seattle last week. On average, Arizona's linebackers are just slightly heavier than Cardinal receiver Ty Montgomery.
"We have to play bigger than we are if we want a chance to win," Rodriguez said.
It'll be Josh Nunes' job to make sure that his offense doesn't allow that. The Stanford quarterback failed to put his team in position to exploit Washington's size disadvantage on the road last week, but he gets another shot at home this time around. The Wildcats are certainly vulnerable against the run (166.8 yards/game), and a well-balanced, physical Oregon State offense exposed their pass defense last week, too. The Beavers' Sean Mannion threw for 433 yards, complementing Storm Woods' 169 yards on 29 carries (5.6 average) in the 38-35 victory.
Oregon State passed 45 times, rushed 43 times, and racked up 613 total yards against Arizona in a perfectly executed offensive effort. If Stanford can manage to establish similar balance Saturday, the Wildcats won't have the horses to keep up. It'll be up to Nunes to set the table for the running game's dinner. A crisp completion percentage closer to 60 percent this time around should do just that.
Embrace The Speed Challenge
Though there are key differences, Rich Rodriguez's spread offensive attack has a lot in common with Chip Kelly's jet-engine Oregon system. Saturday, it will be up to the Stanford defense to stop the kind of speed-oriented offense that has long tormented it. The Cardinal are bigger and stronger on the defensive side of the football than they have ever been, so this should be an intriguing benchmark for the unit.
Arizona quarterback Matt Scott, who played through a hip injury earlier this year, looks to be back in his dangerous dual threat form. He has run for 291 yards to complement his throwing production to an insanely balanced receiving corps. Eight Arizona pass catchers are tied for the team lead with five grabs, while five more have at least three. There's truly no single threat to key on, so discipline will be paramount for the Cardinal, especially considering the fact that the Wildcats have also had success running with back Ka'Deem Carey.
Arizona's attack is predicated on the lateral and over-the-top assault in a more substantial way than Oregon's, which focuses on baiting safeties away from run defense by attacking the seams with the pass. This means that Stanford cornerbacks must be especially sure that they keep action in front of them. Linebackers will have to demonstrate the speed to suffocate the sidelines, a sometimes unpleasant challenge. Shayne Skov said that he'd rather face a straightforward smash-mouth football team instead of Arizona's lateral attack.
"As a linebacker in general, it gets a little annoying chasing guys sideline to sideline," he laughed. "It's like basketball on grass. I'd rather be hitting people than chasing them."
Of course, continued pressure from the defensive line will be paramount. Excessive blitzing against a team with such a balanced receiving corps is tantamount to suicide. Nose tackle Terrence Stephens says it'll be the ultimate endurance test, simply because the Wildcats run 88 plays per game. That's good for second in the nation.
"Playing a spread team is hard for me because I'm not the best at pass rushing," he said. "We're going to have groups of people going in and going out, making sure we're staying fresh. We don't lack the athletes. We don't lack the size. It's going to be all mental."
Force Field Goals: Win the Red Zone Battle
The Wildcats will inevitably move the ball, at least a bit. They did even at Oregon, but an unfathomably bad 0-for-6 red zone performance led to laying the goose egg at Autzen Stadium. Arizona kicker John Bonano is only 4-for-9 this season, and he's missed many shorter field goals. Rodriguez's squad is competent between the 20s, but their spread attack loses its effectiveness when it runs out of room in the end zone. Field goal struggles have compounded this shortcoming, so this is where Stanford can cash in on its physical defense.

Editing photos on your iPad, iPhone, iPod, and yes, even your Apple TV! It is no secret that we all love to take photos with our mobile devices leaving the only question to be: "How can I edit, and share, my pictures?" Well, Air Show HD hopes to be an answer to this question. And a few others. It is true that Apple has offered the ability to share and edit your photos since the release of iOS 5. That said, there is one thing that Apple has never addressed and that is in regard to the photos you may not want to share publically.
Apple has just updated the second and third-generation Apple TV software to version 5.1 (build 10A406e). The biggest changes include support for Shared Photo Streams, the ability to switch between iTunes accounts and to send audio content from Apple TV to AirPlay-enabled speakers and devices. Apple TV 2 jailbreakers: as always – stay away from this update for now if you don't want to lose your jailbreak.
Until now only available on jailbroken devices, Hulu Plus official app has finally arrived on Apple TV. Hulu icon now shows up on the Apple TV home screen (no update needed, just reboot your device) giving you instant access to all the shows, series and movies available on Hulu Plus. The monthly subscription is $7.99 and there is a one week free trial for new users. If you are new to the service you can sign-up through Apple TV using an Apple ID.
iTunes in the Cloud for movies is finally available outside of the United States. Apple has just rolled out the service to over 35 new countries. iTunes Movies in the Cloud gives users the ability to access previously purchased movies and TV shows right from iCloud on the Apple TV.
FireCore's Seas0nPass has been just updated to provide an untethered jailbreak for Apple TV 2 running the latest 5.0.2 (iOS 5.1.1) firmware. Released yesterday, this minor software update for the 2nd and 3rd generation Apple TV only includes an Australia-specific issue with Parental Controls, no new features have been added.
FireCore has released an update to their aTV Flash (black) for Apple TV 2. aTV Flash (black) 1.6 adds integrated subtitle downloads (courtesy of OpenSubtitles.org), support for purchased iTunes content, expanded codec support, refined video playback, improved networking, Wake-on-Lan (WOL), additional translations and a bunch of other improvements and bug fixes.

Host, network will part ways at month's end
Glenn Beck's tenure at Fox News is scheduled to end June 30. A source familiar with the situation said that the controversial talkshow host has been scheduled to end his show at the end of the month since Beck's impending departure was announced in April, but it's doubtful that recent ratings for "The Glenn Beck Program" slowed his departure.
During the past month, Beck is down 17% from 2.2 million total viewers to 1.8 million year on year and down 33% to 428,000 from 641,000 in the adults 25-54 demo. The show still kept Fox News in the No. 1 spot among cabler news in its 5 p.m. timeslot, however, and it ranked third behind "The O'Reilly Factor" and "Hannity" among FNC's highest-rated primetime shows.
Beck announced earlier this year that he was leaving his daily TV perch to focus on other business ventures. On Wednesday, Beck's Mercury Radio Arts shingle and Simon & Schuster renewed their publishing agreement for two more books by the host (including a novel to be published in October) and announced the formation of a new book imprint, Mercury Ink (the Mercury volumes will be co-published with S&S).
Fox hasn't yet announced a new replacement show, but more than one industryite has mentioned anchor Megyn Kelly as a possibility.

Notice how our board trolls here are always talking g@y? Nasty AIDS and STD ridden g@y stuff too. I don't think their use of that is lost on the other posters here. Notice they're always talking about their 'joint' their 'gape', all the smeg on their faces, and worse. Notice how they cling together in a 'circle jerk' of jerks?
It's truly truly disgusting! I bet you agree with me that everything bad coming there way is truly truly deserved. Nothing could be awful enough in their lives that they don't deserve it totally. Fun to witness a well earned demise. It clearly shows a manipulated stock. I'm not thinking many are fooled here. I'm certain no one even reads the tittering troll g@y based sickness.
Hay my dribble noting free speech poster child, are you using your free speech today to point out the obviously g@y roots of The Gang Of Board Troll Coward's free speech poster war, and out their sullied free speech poster child ways by exposing, and laughing at, their obvious tell in their free speech? Because Mister you would be right! Always.
Why does he want to be anyone but himself?
You failed the test. You are now a serious threat to bozo as this board Village Idiot.
Nice public slappings of the sullied S.D!
I have too many investments to manage today than to cater to the fools who keep begging to see John Osborne, ebay's failing z50com's, ongoing crime scene of drug growing, drug abusing, meth huffing, extreme child and grand child neglect at 5008 Hanover Circle Cypress CA 90630 posted.
I can't understand why his 'pals' hate John so much but I made a promise and I keep my word, unlike John and the sullied twins.
I "didn't see it" in that your ignorant post makes no sense.
Let me point out that all you seem to live for is furthering John Osborne's failed board war claiming "everyone is all one poster".
Let me also point out that you're ignorant dribbling only sullied your loser self and no one cares dude-ette. Next time, try living a life.
"No I didn't see that"
Let me point it out to you. Check out the thread below. Pay close attention to the author of trhe first post at 1:13 pm by Charles' "johnosborne.toolfool" id. They I replied, and Charles replied to my post at 1:29 with his "sullyinmass.2012" id. Even a moron like you can see Charles' MAJOR blunder.
See if you can find it. This is a test to see how smart you are.
Re: Lonely, But Not So Broke Lisa Bernstein 21-May-2012 1:13 pm by johnosborne.toolfool
Do you frequently call out in anger to posters who left before you supposedly arrived? No one is fooled Sybil. We all got a sample of your deep sickness regarding Lisa. Why didn't you just post that in your sick Smolderingmary ID?
All you and your but lick twin can ever accomplish here is your endless circular daily spamming hate and getting John Osborne z50com's ongoing crime scene drug growing, drug abusing and rampant child neglect hovel at 5008 Hanover Circle Cypress CA 90630 up on the web.
Don't worry, your Mommy's house is also coming soon.

"Why didn't you just post that in your sick Smolderingmary ID?"
You have me confused with someone else. I've never posted as that id. Provide the link to where I allegedly did to back up your accusation. Otherwise, once again you've been proved a liar.
Re: Lonely, But Not So Broke Lisa Bernstein 21-May-2012 1:29 pm by sullyinmass.2012
That's not my name imposter moron, but we have all seen your many ID slips posting as Smolderingmary. That and your recent psycho posts are evidence enough of your Profiles In Cowardice.
Hey my free speech poster child, are you using your free speech today to say you have the right, nay the duty, to point out the rampant g@y based filth of our board melters free speech, and shame them publicly with your free speech thinking they will ever grow up? Because Mister you would be wrong.
No I didn't see that Smolderingmary Sullied. I don't think anyone else (except you board troll 3 Stooges) see that either. It only matters in your "everyone is all one poster" insanity, where you try to blame a long gone poster for your daily hate, spam and flatulence.
John Osborne the Tool Fool wasted a decade playing that failed game, at the cost of his business, home and family. How long will YOU waste? Not that your whole life isn't a waste anyone. You have never said, done, or amounted to one tiny little thing. Yet you live here 247 daily. LOL!
"I'm making great investments and outing and destroying board trolls"
Did you see how I outed Charles two weeks ago when he made a MAJOR blunder, when he forgot to switch ids while posting as sullyinmass.2012 & johnosborne.toolfool? Oh wait, he outed himself by doing so.
Agreed. Their own words give much insight into what drives their daily ongoing sickness. It is very revealing about them. Very. I don't think anyone ever really reads their posts. The fact they are here 247 every day further confirms their loser nature. Ebay loves these clowns since the chatter fleeces newbie investors. Going to be extra fun if any of these clowns are traced to ebay.
Responding to another of your ids I see Charles. Sad, very sad.

Haj Pilgrims to Get Sacred Water Cans on Arrival
By IANS
Published: 22nd August 2014 07:53 PM
Last Updated: 22nd August 2014 07:53 PM
RIYADH: Indian nationals will be provided sacred Zamzam water cans on their arrival in India from the Haj pilgrimage under a new agreement finalised between the Haj Committee of India and Saudi Arabian Airlines, a media report said.
The specially packaged Zamzam water cans, provided by the government-run factory in Mecca, will be stored at various points in India to be delivered to the pilgrims once they return from Saudi Arabia after the pilgrimage. Each pilgrim will get one five-litre container, Arab News reported Friday.
The new arrangement is aimed at easing the heavy load Haj pilgrims carry during travel as they pack many cans of Zamzan water in their luggage while returning from Mecca.
Indian Consul General in Jeddah B.S. Mubarak Thursday said negotiations were under way with Air India about transporting Zamzam containers on return flights, following the Saudi Airlines model.
"There are certain issues back home in India, but we are very optimistic that this will be sorted out, and Air India too will follow the Saudi Airlines pattern," Mubarak told Arab News.
Earlier Monday, Mubarak announced the introduction of a new state-of-the-art navigation system based on Google mapping to help Indian pilgrims find their way to their accommodation in Mecca and Medinah during the Haj pilgrimage this year
This year, about 360 flights will be operated to transport 136,020 pilgrims, 100,020 of them facilitated by the Indian Central Haj Committee, from 21 embarkation points to Saudi Arabian cities.
Zamzam water is among the most prized items taken home by all returning pilgrims. Each pilgrim fills little bottles with the holy water and these are then given to relatives and friends as a form of gratitude and celebration.

A Tale of Two Chairs
Ricky Watts spends the workday in a studio in Sebastopol, CA, that he once shared with his grandfather, Arthur. Today, Ricky's Embody Chair shares the space with an Eames Lounge and Ottoman first owned by Arthur and his family. Take a look at the workshop and hear the story behind the Eames piece -- as told in a charming recollection from Ricky's mother.
"In the summer of 1963, we moved into a 1940′s stucco house in San Anselmo. It had a large, well-lit area -- empty except for a dining table and three chairs at one end, a hi-fi at the other, four Parsons-style end tables, and a matching coffee table (made by my cabinetmaker grandfather). It was the heyday of Swedish modern, and my parents were both working and had saved enough money to have -- for the first time in their lives -- a living room that was in style. So off we went one Saturday to buy furniture in San Francisco. It's probable that from his former profession in architecture, my dad had cards that got him into high-quality showrooms. I was 16, the decorating gene had skipped me. What I loved were books, so armed with a copy of 'Betsy in Spite of Herself' by Maud Hart Lovelace (Betsy and I were the same age), I planned to spend the day reading in comfortable chairs. They bought, that day, a mustard and grey Swedish modern sofa, a black Swedish modern chair, and a 3″ x 5″ red Rya rug. I was underwhelmed: they were uncomfortable and, to my eyes, ugly; the mustard was a disgusting color and all three items were wool -- to which I was allergic. However, I'd had a splendid time with Betsy, curled up in a seriously comfortable chair. When they were ready to leave, they came to find me. 'Do we have to leave?' I asked, stretching in the Eames Lounge. They looked, not at me, but at the chair. They knew what it was; they'd admired Charles and Ray Eames for years. And they needed one more chair. The rest is history. If you look at the feet, you'll see scratch marks from Jack, the Springer spaniel puppy who hated being left alone and took it out on the furniture: he gnawed the Eames Chair legs, jumped on the coffee table so often his claws gouged out long tracks, and tore up feather pillows on the Rya rug. So much for style."(Images: Ricky Watts) Republished in partnership with Herman Miller Lifework. Originally posted by Amy Feezor.

San Francisco transit, union leaders reach deal
SAN FRANCISCO -- San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit officials and labor union leaders announced a new deal early Saturday, saying the final issue in their ongoing dispute has been resolved.
The transit system and its two largest unions have been involved in monthslong negotiations that stalled recently over paid medical leave time for employees.
BART officials and labor leaders had approved a deal in October after six months of negotiations and two strikes that caused problems for hundreds of thousands of people who ride the nation's fifth-largest commuter rail system.
That deal fell apart in November when BART officials said the provision giving workers six weeks of paid annual leave to care for sick family members had been mistakenly included in the contract.
Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1555 President Antonette Bryant confirmed the deal but declined to discuss details until they are shared with union members.

April 15, 2003 | Francis Collins' "pet peeves" come as no surprise given his exhaustive agenda for the next generation of genomic sequencing, research, and analysis, as spelled out in his keynote address.
Probably the single most influential voice in charting the course of genomic research, the director of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) said his pet peeves are any notion that we have entered the "post-genome" or "post-sequencing" era.
"That's a bit of an overstatement. We've been in the pre-genome era for all of human history. On April 14, we will finally have our genome," he said, referring to the date of the official declaration of the conclusion of the Human Genome Project. "We ought to put the nix on post-genomics. Otherwise, we may fool ourselves that we know more about our genome than we do."
In his presentation, aptly entitled "DNA at 50: You're not getting older. You're getting better," Collins outlined four follow-on initiatives to the genome project already under way. That was followed by a lengthy list of priorities as a way of translating the benefits and concerns of genomics to the public (see NHGRI Gets Its House in Order).
"We need to have clear and compelling answers across many different areas of genome research for this question, 'What's next?' This is different than the five-year plans we have been putting forward about the genome [project], which were focused on achieving milestones. That's done. Now we have a chance to think even more broadly," he said, admitting that the new agenda could be characterized as "overambitious."
NHGRI regularly set five-year plans during the Human Genome Project but now must grapple with the recession, a stingier Congress, and defining a new mission now that the genome is completed. President Bush has proposed a meager 1.8 percent increase in the National Institutes of Health's FY2004 budget versus a 16.1 percent jump the previous year. However, that includes raising NHGRI's funding from $457 million to $478 million—almost 9.5 percent—a slightly bigger increase from the year before.
"I'm very concerned about going from 10 percent [annual increases for the past four years] to something that barely will keep up with inflation. We don't want to sound like spoiled brats, [but] it's a different climate now," he said in an interview after his presentation. "it's really up to the leaders in Congress."
NHGRI and the research community will mark the completion of the genome project after 13 years of effort—along with the 50th anniversary of the double helix discovery by James Watson and Francis Crick—by hosting a public symposium at the NIH and at the National Museum of History. April 25 has been declared National DNA Day, with a thousand geneticists volunteering to speak about the genome era at schools. The centerpiece of the day will be a webcast of Collins and Watson discussing the discovery's significance.
Collins will have a more personal reason to celebrate: April 2003 is the 10th anniversary of his decision to direct the Human Genome Project, taking over from Watson.

A Sharecropper's Son, Country Hero Johnny Cash Walked the Line and Became a Legend
Throughout their 35-year marriage, June Carter and Johnny Cash reigned as the first couple of country music. So friends were not surprised when, within days of June's death in May, Johnny, 71, decided he wanted to record some new songs. "That seemed to be his emotional outlet," says neighbor Marty Stuart, who toured with Cash back in the '80s. "Music was the one thing that was a bit of a healing balm." Most days around noon, the band would gather and jam, either at Cash's 50-acre estate in Hendersonville, Tenn., at Stuart's home next door or at Cash's cabin in the woods. "He was good for two, three hours and probably recorded 40 to 50 songs," says Stuart, who was once married to Cash's daughter Cindy. "It knocked me out how much fire he had."
On Sept. 12, after nearly a half century of seesawing between the highs and lows of success and excess, the gravel-voiced country legend died at Baptist Hospital in Nashville, with three of his five children and his three living siblings at his bedside. Cash, who had tamed his on-again, off-again drug addictions in the early '90s, was recently battling glaucoma, asthma and a depleted immune system, but the cause of death, ultimately, was respiratory problems connected to diabetes—and the ravages of a broken heart. "After June died, life was a struggle for him. His daughter told me he cried every night," says singer-songwriter Kris Kristofferson, a longtime friend. On Aug. 20, in one of his last interviews, Cash sat at home in a wheelchair surrounded by antiques and guitars that had been tagged to bequeath to family members. "He told us, 'I'm going to die soon,' " says MTV News' Kurt Loder. "It was a little depressing."
Still, Cash's death came as a shock to loved ones. "He had been in and out of the hospital for years," says Kristofferson, 67. "He always got better." Toward the end, Cash had been particularly eager to attend the Aug. 28 MTV Video Music Awards, where he was a nominee in six categories for his cover of "Hurt," a Nine Inch Nails song about drug addiction. "He told me he was really looking forward to getting out of that damn wheelchair and walking out onstage," says Stuart. Adds country manager Merle Kilgore, who was best man at the Cashes' wedding: "He had the doctor working on his leg so he could walk 200 steps." Ultimately, Cash's health failed him and he couldn't attend. Even so, when Justin Timberlake beat out Cash in the best male video category, he told the audience, "This is a travesty! I demand a recount. My grandfather raised me on Johnny Cash, and I think he deserves this more than any of us tonight."
As the congregation at Cash's memorial service in Hendersonville on Sept. 15 made plain, most of the music world doesn't need such reminders. Tucked among the 1,500 people who attended the low-key, private service at First Baptist Church were stars young and old, country and rock: Vince Gill, Amy Grant, John Mellencamp, Kid Rock, Hank Williams Jr., Dwight Yoakam. The roster of honorary pallbearers (including Willie Nelson and Kristofferson) and performers (including Sheryl Crow and Emmylou Harris) bespoke Cash's patriarchal status. Cards placed among the flowers lining the altar—"Sadness and much regret" from Bob Dylan, and "I can't stop loving you" from Ray Charles—attested to Cash's wide influence.
In a moving eulogy, Rosanne Cash, 48, his oldest child, spoke of Cash's humility and humanity as a star and a father. "He never criticized, he never condescended to us, he never forced his will on us," she said. "He respected us as much as we respected him." Lou Robin, who was Cash's manager for 34 years, told the assemblage, "Johnny was basically a poet who put his words to music whenever the mood came over him." Rev. Courtney Wilson, a friend of 35 years, spoke of Cash's hard-fought battles: "He had his difficulties, he had his struggles. But what impressed me was that he didn't ever quit."
Indeed, the same gritty resolve that guided Cash's final months informed his life and his music. Never one to bow to musical fashion, Cash consulted only the muses and demons raging in his head and heart to write the songs that he often performed to devastating effect. "He stood up for the underdogs, the downtrodden, the prisoners, the poor, and he was their champion," says Kristofferson. "He appealed to people all over the world." Cash's concerts drew sellout crowds on four continents; those crowds were packed with ardent fans who knew his lyrics. Back home, he seemed as comfortable performing in the country's maximum-security prisons as he did collecting the 2001 National Medal of Arts from President George Bush in Washington, D.C.
Cash was particularly revered in music circles, where he remains one of only a handful of artists to be inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll and Nashville Songwriters Halls of Fame. With more than 100 albums, 1,500 songs and 11 Grammys (including 1991's Legend Award) to his credit, Cash was the icon's icon. The weekend after Cash's death, Bruce Springsteen opened concerts in Washington, D.C, and Chapel Hill, N.C., with Cash's "I Walk the Line," a tribute to the man whom the rocker, like Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen and many others, regarded as a mentor. "He constantly gave me encouragement. 'Son, you are doing things just right. Do it like you feel it,' " says country singer Travis Tritt. "I'll miss hearing those words from him."
The fourth of Ray and Carrie Cash's seven children, John endured a hardscrabble childhood. When he was still a toddler, his sharecropping family settled in a federally sponsored New Deal farming collective in Dyess, Ark., which allowed them to buy, with no money down, a house, barn and 20 acres of farmland. The farm lacked electricity and plumbing, and Cash worked 12-hour days in suffocating heat alongside his parents and siblings as they bent over rows of cotton. Life had its lighter moments, however, with family songfests and off-hours spent fishing and hiking. It also had its tragedies, as when Cash's beloved older brother Jack died at age 14 in a woodcutting accident. Encouraged by his mother, who played guitar and fiddle, Cash sought solace in music, composing his first songs on his guitar at 12.
Upon graduation from high school in 1950, Cash enlisted in the Air Force. While stationed in Landsberg, West Germany, where he served as an intelligence-service radioman, he wrote the lyrics for the song that would become his signature, "Folsom Prison Blues," after a documentary about prison conditions was screened on the base. After his discharge, Cash married Vivian Liberto, his wartime pen pal, and settled in Memphis, where he began performing at fairs and church socials with a pair of auto mechanics. Lacking costumes at their first gig, the three wore black shirts and jeans, thereby giving birth to the Man in Black's enduring look, which came to represent his solidarity with those less fortunate.
Cash cadged an audition with Sam Phillips, who owned the Sun Records label, home to Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and two other rockabilly musicians who would become close pals: Carl Perkins and Roy Orbison. He was astounded when Phillips told him that he would release the audition track "Hey, Porter" as a single if Cash could write "a real weeper" for the flip side. Cash took him literally, and in 1955 "Cry, Cry, Cry" became Cash's first, albeit modest, hit. A year later his ballad "I Walk the Line" sold more than a million copies and crossed over to the pop charts.
In 1963 he and his touring partner June Carter topped the country charts with "Ring of Fire," a song about forbidden love that she cowrote (with Merle Kil-gore) and they recorded while they were falling in love-and married to other people. "It hurt to hear that song," Carter told PEOPLE last year. "It got to where the relationship had to be, come hell or high water." Indeed, there was plenty of hardship before he and Carter got together. By the mid-'60s, as he performed up to 300 concerts a year, Cash was gobbling amphetamines to stay awake and barbiturates to steady the rush. He trashed hotel rooms, totaled cars, failed to show up for gigs. After smashing the footlights at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium during a 1965 Grand Ole Opry broadcast, Cash was briefly banned from the weekly show. "I was scraping the filthy bottom of the barrel of life," he wrote in his 1997 memoir.
In 1966, after 12 years of marriage, Liberto, with whom Cash had four daughters (singer Rosanne; Kathy, 47; Cindy, 45; and Tara, 42), filed for divorce. His salvation was literally waiting in the wings in the person of Carter, whose Christian prayers and ministrations helped him quit drugs cold turkey in 1967. The next year they married, and she and her two young daughters, Carlene, now 47, and Rosie, 45, joined the Cash household. "Our hearts are attuned to each other," Cash said of Carter in 1998. "I can't envision living without her."
The newly sober Cash attracted a fresh generation of fans. "What kept him credible with people was that when he made mistakes, he was the first one to raise his hand and say, 'I did it. I messed up,' " says Marty Stuart. "He had a humble nature, and you couldn't not forgive him." Cash's 1968 album, Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison, and its 1969 follow-up, recorded at San Quentin, were the best-selling of his career. When he became host of his own ABC variety hour, The Johnny Cash Show, in 1969, he was one of the world's bestselling solo musicians. With the 1970 birth of his and Carter's only child, John Carter, Cash wrote, "My happiness grew and grew. Sobriety suited me." It would last, with intermittent slips, for the rest of his life.
In his final decade Cash released four albums, culminating with last year's American IV: The Man Comes Around. But the world has not heard the last of Johnny Cash. This fall, American Records plans to release his five-CD set, tentatively titled Unearthed. And after that? "They will be singing Johnny Cash songs and talking about Johnny Cash 200 years from now," says Travis Tritt. "He is one of those guys who's bigger than life—and always was."

Fresno Fire Chief faces felony domestic violence case
Fresno Fire Chief Rob Brown has officially been charged with felony domestic violence.
mike r: "There is no greater example of double standards in leadership than First Lady, Senator, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Is it too inconvenient or cumbersome for her to follow the same rules that agents in the field have to follow? Maybe it would make morale too high? Clinton's behavior harkens to the old motto: "The beatings will continue until morale improves." Once when my encoder to log in to my work email malfunctioned, I couldn't even file my invoice to get paid for the month through my personal email, because it wasn't protected enough. I was told that a potential enemy could use my invoice against the country, and I believe that's the truth. It's truer for a secretary of state and the material he or she handles. Still, we're asked to believe nothing inappropriate happened, no slip-ups, no wrongdoing. It all reeks of "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

David Price Excited To Get Some Bats In Against Reds
The Tampa Bay Rays begin interleague play Friday night when they open a three-game series against the Reds at the Great American Ball Park. This means that the pitchers will get a chance to bat. David Price is excited about the opportunity.
?I?m looking more forward to pitching, but I?m definitely excited to hit,? said LHP David Price, tonight?s starter. ?I?m excited to, but I think I know the reality of it. (Reds RHP Johnny) Cueto?s extremely tough. Cueto?s really good. I just want to have good at-bats. My goal is to get four at-bats. That either means our hitters are raking and we?re scoring a whole bunch of runs or I?m pitching deep into the game. So that?s the goal for me, to get four ABs.?
