Off the Wall Theatre delivers must-see 'Grey Gardens'
Midway through the first act of the superb "Grey Gardens" now on stage at Off the Wall Theatre, young Edie tries to declare independence from Big Edie, her overbearing mother. It's Little Edie's engagement party, but Big Edie is intent on hogging the spotlight with a recital of favorite songs.
When Little Edie puts her foot down and says "no," Niffer Clarke's Big Edie oozes devastated diva. But Alexandra Bonesho's eager-to-please Little Edie makes clear that the guilt-ridden daughter has it worse. She anxiously tries coaxing Big Edie out of her funk by beginning "Two Peas in a Pod," a loving duet that embodies everything the two women share. »Read Full Article

American Roots Revue wins a Legacy Grant! The group will perform in five out state Minnesota communities in partnership with homeless shelters, veteran, and community organizations.
Back by popular demand after two sold-out shows at the Dakota in November, gospel great Robert Robinson; the unstoppably creative dynamo J.D. Steele; R&B powerhouse Tonia Hughes and gifted songwriter Larry Long will return with a band of musicians second to none on Saturday, January 18th. Their collective performances have circled the globe from Madison Square Garden to the Hollywood Bowl; South Africa, Scotland, Brazil, Russia, Kenya, Italy and France. You may also recognize each from shows with everyone from Prince to Pete Seeger, Mavis Staples to Bruce Springsteen. Together for an explosive new show at the Dakota, they will warm up your January with their powerful and heart-warming performances from the vibrant traditions of gospel, jazz, rhythm & blues, folk and rock. For this Martin Luther King weekend, they will be celebrating with you the ties that bind us together through our shared love of music rooted in the American experience.
About American Roots Revue with Larry Long, Robert Robinson, Tonia Hughes, Pat Donohue, Cory Wong, Joe Savage and more!
American Roots Revue works from the core of America's richest musical traditions of First Nation, gospel, blues, folk, rock and R&B. This November, the revue reinvents itself again with an exciting new line up that includes Grammy winning fingerpicker Pat Donohue, well known for his almost 20 years as the gui tarist and songwriter on "A Prairie Home Companion." Donohue joins musicians that will also include the show's producer, award-winning singer-songwriter, Smithsonian Records recording artist and community builder Larry Long, with powerhouse gospel and soul singer Tonia Hughes, and the American Roots anchor artist — the "Pavarotti of Gospel" — Robert Robinson.
Join these marquee talents — backed by an incendiary all-star band that features gui tarist Cory Wong, who recently sat in with the Rolling Stones' Charlie Watts at the Dakota for his 74th birthday on June2! Donohue's devotion to acoust ic guitar has made him an American standard, as he echoes the tones of Robert Johnson, Charl ie Parker, Merle Travis or Muddy Waters.
Larry Long's American Roots Revue boasts the artistic range to salute iconic America music heroes like Pete Seeger on what would have been his 95th birthday with a cavalcade of talent. And the poetic license to present artists in unique combinations with each other, like this must-see bill! It's not unusual to see internationally known blues singer and writer Guy Davis with best-selling rockers like Dave Pirner from Soul Asylum, and rising pop star Chastity Brown with Minnesota's favorite chanteuse, Prudence Johnson, all backed by a superlative band and vocalists who will make you feel like you're going to a revival inside the intimate nightclub that is the Dakota.
What Other People Have Been Saying...
"…abundant talent" – Star Tribune Larry Long: A Troubadour for Social Justice, Star Tribune, 4/24/14
"Larry Long is doing what more singers and songwriters should be doing: Using music to help people learn to work together, and bring a world of peace." —Pete Seeger
"I first heard him (Pat Donohue) on the radio and got upset. Then I heard him in concert and got more upset. He thinks harmonically, improvises beautifully, and writes. If you're a guitar player, he's going to haunt you…" —Leo Kottke

Secretary Napolitano Clarifies President's Deferred Action Plan…Again
Micehele Waslin: Several members of Congress praised Napolitano for providing undocumented youth who had been brought here at a young age with hope for the future.
US Immigration Seeking to Unify Families Facing Separation
Michele Waslin: The Obama administration is proposing a rule change that will partially ameliorate one of the most contradictory rules of immigration law, thereby encouraging legal immigration and helping to keep U.S. families together.
Raising Per Country Immigration Caps
Michele Waslin: H.R. 3012 would make small but significant changes to the way green cards are distributed by eliminating per country numerical limits on employment-based green cards and raising the limits on family-based green cards which go to immigrants from each country.
Immigrant Entrepreneurs Leaving the U.S.
Michele Waslin: Immigrants can start new businesses here, but they're doing it somewhere else in recent years due to our complicated and dysfunctional immigration system.
Rocky Road Ahead for DREAM Act

Andrea Nill: Labor and business appear to agree on one thing: on its own, the $600 million border bill won't solve any of these issues and will do little to fix the nation's broken immigration system.
Obama Administration Considers Bypassing Congress on Immigration Reform
Marcus Stern: Supporters of comprehensive immigration reform are certain to welcome any effort by the Obama administration to unilaterally open pathways to citizenship for many currently in the country illegally. But the draft is also sure to outrage immigration-restriction groups.
Bernanke Recommends Congress Take Up Immigration
Andrea Christina Nill: In his testimony before the Senate Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee late last week, Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke listed immigration reform as one of the issues Congress can and should take up to advance the nation's economy
Gingrich: 'It Ought to Be Easy, Not Hard to Get A Visa' to Come to the U
Andrea Nill: Gingrich aptly points out that the nation is currently operating under an inefficient, outdated, and ineffective visa system. While many immigration hawks demand that undocumented immigrants go "to the back of the line," Gingrich speaks to fact that there isn't really a line for them to get in.
New Report Shines Light on the Economics of Illegal Immigration
There are additional hidden costs of the status quo—a broken immigration system. Employers pay for complying with harsh enforcement strategies, illegal immigrants endure exploitation because of their lack of legal status, and state and local governments disproportionately bear the burden of any related fiscal costs.

Local student interns at National Baseball Hall of Fame
Citizen Staff Reports 06/07/12
Fifteen college students arrived in Cooperstown May 29 to begin a 10-week study in a variety of disciplines at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum as members of the 2012 class of the Frank and Peggy Steele Internship Program for Youth Leadership Development. The Class of 2012 includes Lindsey Hale, a junior at the University of Virginia and a Glen Allen native, who is interning in the Hall of Fame's education department in public programs.
Now in its 12th year, the Frank and Peggy Steele Internship Program for Youth Leadership Development program offers college undergraduate and graduate students an opportunity to work alongside museum and library staff members to gain hands-on professional training in a field that closely matches the student's major.
In addition to completing 40 hours of work each week, interns will participate in a number of career seminars during the 10-week program on topics such as networking, public speaking, resume and cover letter writing, and creating an innovative leadership style. In addition, every intern will host artifact spotlights – brief public presentations with in-depth stories about items in the museum's collections – in the museum throughout the summer.
In all, 15 students hailing from 15 universities will intern for museum departments, including collections, curatorial, education, special events, membership, photo archives, public relations, library research and library recorded media,. The 15 interns were selected from more than 500 applications from students nationally, with the program concluding Aug. 3.
The internship program began in 2001 and has since welcomed more than 270 interns in an experience made possible by Peggy Steele, who endowed the program in honor of her late husband, Frank, and in his commitment to fostering education and leadership development. Applications for the 2013 Frank and Peggy Steele Internship Program will be available beginning this fall at http://www.baseballhall.org.

Beware of Money Transfer Scams

Staten Island's only community-based business bank urges caution when responding to questionable calls
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. – Victory State Bank would like to advise you to be extremely careful when responding to calls asking for money transfers.
How do these scams work? Generally, you get a call from someone who says:
• You won a prize but you have to pay "taxes" on it
• A friend is in trouble and needs your help
• You can get a loan — even if you have bad credit — but you have to pay a small fee first
Whatever the pitch, the caller's only goal is to get your money ¬— not to give you something in return. Do your research before ever agreeing to wire money to someone or to a company. If something sounds too good to be true, or out of the ordinary, it probably is.
About Victory State Bank:
VSB Bancorp, Inc. (OTC: VSBN) is the one-bank holding company for Victory State Bank. As Staten Island, N.Y.'s only community-based commercial bank, Victory State Bank operates five full-service locations on the Island: The main office in the community of Great Kills, and branches in the communities of West Brighton, St. George, Dongan Hills and Rosebank.

So last Friday I went to my local UPS store to ship off these brand two new iPhone 6 which I had stood in line for the whole night to get. The phones were bought at retail so I paid close to $1900 dollars. So I walk in the store and have the employees package the phones for me in a box. I chose the Next day delivery.

I've been reading through the reviews here and I'm seeing that "delivery exception" seems to be a standard excuse for not delivering on time and it comes in multiple flavors.

Elizabeth Knipe: The movement to organize labor is filled with colorful characters and none more so than those who led the International Workers of the World, more popularly known as the Wobblies.
Corporate America Sends a Labor Day Message
Immigrant Laborers Strengthen American Workforce, Economy
Michele Waslin: While immigration restrictionists have long tried to demonize immigrant workers and blame them for high unemployment rates and other economic woes, the facts make it clear that immigrants actually create jobs and businesses and boost the wages of native-born workers.
Protests, Not Parades, This Labor Day
Robert Reich: Labor Day is traditionally a time for picnics and parades. But this year is no picnic for American workers, and a protest march would be more appropriate than a parade.
Stock Tip: Be Worried. Workers are Consumers.
Robert Reich: Every CEO of every company that continues to squeeze payrolls (Verizon, are you listening? Ford?) needs to understand they're shooting themselves in the feet. Where do they expect demand for their products and services to come from?
Jerry Betrays Cesar, UFW, and His Own Legacy
Randy Shaw: Brown's alignment with wealthy growers against indigent workers picking crops in the fields surely has Chavez turning over in his grave, and shows that the Governor views the UFW as just another group he is willing to betray.
Should Your Job Kill You?
Diane Lefer: Given our economic woes and high unemployment, the importance of advocacy groups and community organizations becomes very clear. Without support and backup, workers are less likely to demand their rights and risk retaliation at the very time when employers want to cut corners
Mandatory E-Verify Will Not Magically Solve Immigration Woes
Michele Waslin: Immigration restrictionists argue that imposing a mandatory employment verification system will ensure that unauthorized workers are not able to get jobs in the U.S. and will choose to leave, leaving millions of jobs wide open for unemployed U.S. citizens. Of course, this ignores the facts.
Republican War on Worker Rights Undermines Economy
Robert Reich: The only way back toward sustained growth and prosperity in the United States is to remake the basic bargain linking pay to productivity. This would give the American middle class the purchasing power they need to keep the economy going.
Home: A Former Sex Worker's Dream
Nikki Junker: I think we are making leaps and bounds in getting many of these girls out of the situations that they are in. Out of the hands of their pimps and a life of being trafficked, but now the question where do we go from here?
California GOP Targets Workers
Caitlin Vega: In these times of unprecedented income inequality, all the Republicans want is to cut worker pay and protections and reward corporations, even if they break the law. It's taking from those who have the least and giving to those with the most.
War and Workers
Lydia Howell: Whether it's debt-ridden college graduates working as baristas or small town youth with only fast-food and Wal-Mart as post-high school career options, high unemployment keeps a volunteer military ranks full.
President Obama: MIA
Walter Brasch: Good presidents do what is best for the country. Great presidents, however, do not only what is best for the people, but are also willing to speak to the courage of their beliefs, of their principles, even if it may be unpopular among many of their constituencies.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. - Outfielder Zion Spearman remained still Wednesday night as the Japanese players grabbed the flat brim of his cap and bent it sharply like theirs.
He laughed as they measured their white cleats up against his sneakers. The Japanese clasped Spearman's hands and tried unsuccessfully to break free from his grip.
The Taney Dragons slugger created intrigue as the team waited its turn to cruise down Fourth Avenue in the annual Little League World Series Grand Slam Parade. After the Japanese bent Spearman's brim, his teammate Kai Cummings bent his own to match. Tai Shanahan grabbed one of the Japan caps and straightened its brim in the style of Taney.

Philly train station's iconic flipping departures board will be replaced
Philadelphia's 30th Street Station is home to one of the few remaining "split-flap display" departure boards. The flipping, clicking board, which is managed on four desktop computers running Windows 95, will soon be replaced by a digital display. Other stations' split-flap display boards have been replaced by digital displays that try and mimic the look and sounds of the original. Aficionados and nostalgics, take note: the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania in Strasburg may be acquiring 30th Street's board. Interested in seeing a split-flap board in action before they're all gone? Wikipedia has a list of remaining boards around the world.

From Richard Cranium's post: Consider this as a social experiment. If Natalee Holloway rates a $1 Million reward, certainly, a missing mother (and mother-to-be) rates enough reward money to shake a few street rats out of the woodwork, and we should put our money where our mouth is.

As banks win on charges, are free accounts on the way out?
Published 30/11/2009
A few weeks ago I received a letter from a bank customer. He had just moved to the United States, but before he left he unknowingly went £5.39 overdrawn — without the bank's permission.
As soon as my correspondent realised his error, he paid £6 into his account and thought no more of it. Because he had moved, he did not receive bank statements or letters from the bank for a few weeks. When his correspondence caught up with him, he had a terrible shock.
My letter writer was charged £28 for initially going overdrawn — and then a sequence of further £28 penalty charges were imposed for failing to clear the overdraft, with extra charges on top. By the time his letters caught up with him, the bank customer faced a £362.59 bill — all for mistakenly going a fiver overdrawn.
Happily, the story for this individual ended happily. I contacted his bank — NatWest, a sister bank of Ulster Bank within the Government-rescued Royal Bank of Scotland group — and it credited his account with £363.20 to clear the penalty charges. That is the power of the Press.
But it is the frequency with which banks levy these very high levels of penalty charges — which in some cases rapidly escalate into the thousands of pounds — that has led to the confrontation between banks and the Office of Fair Trading. Surprisingly, this resulted last week in victory in the new Supreme Court for the banks.
I say surprisingly, because there was a widespread assumption — including within the banks — that the OFT would win. It looked an open-and-shut case. The banks had been accused of levying extortionate charges and few fair-minded people would regard these fees as justified. But the court ruled that whether or not they were fair, the OFT did not have the legal powers to act as it did — at least not doing so in the way that it did.
Don't go overdrawn
Ironically, banks have recently gone through a process of changing fee structures — probably in anticipation that the court case would go against them. Many of the most outrageous charges have been reduced. From last month, Ulster Bank cut some of its charges for unauthorised overdrafts by two-thirds. A bounced cheque or refused direct debit or standing order instruction that used to cost £30 per item, is now charged at £10 a time — to a maximum of £100 per month. The 'paid referral fee' — where an item is paid, despite the account going overdrawn without authorisation — was cut from £30 per day to £15 per day.
Northern Bank's paid referral fee remains at £25, with a cap on charges at £75 per month. The bank says "we may choose not to charge a fee if the balance is only just beyond the arranged limit or has only just gone overdrawn".
Where a cheque, direct debit or standing order is rejected because there are insufficient funds in the account, Northern's charge is £28 for each rejected item.
Bank of Ireland customers in Northern Ireland are charged £21 a time for a cheque, direct debit or standing order that is rejected. Customers who go more than £20 overdrawn without authorisation are charged £21 per month.
The highest charges for unpaid items among the Big Four Northern Ireland banks are levied by First Trust, which charges £35 per item. Where the bank chooses to pay an item which puts a customer into an unauthorised overdraft, the fee is £15 per day.
What now?
Even with many of the worst of the excessive unauthorised overdraft charges having been withdrawn, it remains very expensive to overdraw without permission. Although the OFT has lost the Supreme Court case, it may decide to proceed by way of other legal powers. The other avenue, which consumer groups are pursuing, is a change in the law. Antoinette McKeown, chief executive of Northern Ireland's Consumer Council, said: "(The) ruling is extremely disappointing. We will consider the judgment carefully and work with the OFT and our elected representatives to make sure that banks give their customers a fair deal. We believe it is now time for the Government to step in and take action to protect consumers."
The banks themselves recognise that they probably need to ensure their charges are explicit, reasonable and generally understood by customers. Despite winning this legal case, the end may be in sight for excessive charges. But don't celebrate. In future, banks may move to other sources of revenue. Possibilities include annual current account fees; annual credit card fees; and charging for cash machine withdrawals. Many banks are likely to specify that banking is free only if customers maintain minimum balances. Just as there is no such thing as a free lunch, we may soon be saying there is no such thing as a free bank account.

ORLANDO — George Zimmerman was acquitted at his racially charged murder trial in July. He won but at a very steep cost.
Two months ago, he received a $2.5 million bill from his two lead attorneys, Mark O'Mara and Don West.
They had kept track of the time they worked on the case. Each billed him for about 3,000 hours, according to O'Mara.
In a high-profile but not very complicated murder case, the relationship between lawyer and client and money long ago grew complicated. Only now, though, is that issue out in the open.
SANFORD — Seminole County deputies found five guns and more than 100 rounds of ammunition in the home George Zimmerman shared with his girlfriend, where he was arrested last week, accused of domestic violence.
A search warrant made public today shows that he had the weapon that his then-live-in girlfriend said he had used to threaten her: a high-capacity, high-tech 12-gauge shotgun.
He also had a semiautomatic assault rifle — an AR15 — and three handguns.
The Seminole County Sheriff's Office released details of how jurors in the George Zimmerman case lived while they were sequestered during his trial for the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.
The sequestration began — meaning they were forced to live largely out of touch with the outside world — on June 21, the date they were selected as jurors, and lived that way for 22 days, the Sheriff's Office said.
They had individual hotel rooms at the Marriott on International Parkway in Lake Mary but gathered regularly for meals and to socialize, the Sheriff's Office reported.
ORLANDO — Murder suspect George Zimmerman on Wednesday announced plans to ramp up fundraising, writing on a website that if you act now, he'll send you a thank you card "personally signed by George."
The fund so far has raised an estimated $340,000, but Zimmerman announced Wednesday it's nearly exhausted.
Zimmerman is the 29-year-old former Neighborhood Watch volunteer free on $1 million bail while he awaits trial on a second-degree murder charge.
ORLANDO — Shellie Zimmerman says she's not guilty of perjury.
Her new attorney, Kelly B. Sims, filed paperwork Friday, entering that plea on her behalf. That means that she won't have to show up at the Seminole County criminal building Tuesday for arraignment.
Zimmerman, 25, is accused of lying when she told Circuit Judge Kenneth Lester Jr., while under oath, that she and her husband were broke.
At the time, prosecutors allege they had ready access to $130,000, money donated by supporters of her husband, murder defendant George Zimmerman.
SANFORD — As many eagerly awaited the release of never-before-seen evidence in the case against George Zimmerman, members of special prosecutor Angela Corey's office provided a preview Monday in the form of an eight-page document.
The paperwork, filed with the Seminole County clerk as closing time approached, included a list of witnesses the state plans to call and identified several pieces of the evidence prosecutors expect to use to support a second-degree murder charge in the death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.

JetBlue to start service at Albany
JetBlue says it plans to start daily service at the Albany airport, the last of the large airports in New York state to land the low-cost airline.
Sen. Charles Schumer joined local officials and executives from New York-based JetBlue to make the announcement Monday at Albany International Airport in suburban Colonie.
JetBlue will start operations at the airport in 2015. Schumer says Florida will be one of the destinations serviced by JetBlue. Specific routes haven't been announced.
Bill to allow airlines to advertise lower prices
Legislation that would let airlines advertise airfares without adding in fees and taxes has the support of -- you guessed it -- the nation's airline industry.
The bill introduced March 6 by Reps. Bill Shuster, R-Pa., and Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., would negate a rule adopted in 2011 by the U.S. Department of Transportation that now requires airlines to advertise the full cost of tickets, including fees and taxes.
The Transportation Department has already fined the nation's airlines thousands of dollars over the last three years for violating the "full-fare" advertising rule.
Under the new bill, dubbed the Transparent Airfares Act, airlines can advertise the base fare, with extra fees and taxes listed separately on the same print ad or with a link or pop-up window on websites.
NYC egg hunt uses smart phone app
New York City is getting ready for an old-fashioned Easter egg hunt with a 21st-century twist: The public will hunt for the eggs as part of an interactive contest using a smart phone app.
Nearly 275 egg sculptures will be hidden around the city April 1-17 as part of The Faberge Big Egg Hunt. The eggs are about 21/2 feet tall and were created by famous artists and designers such as Tommy Hilfiger and Jeff Koons.
A free downloadable smart phone application will allow the public to check in each time an egg is found. The eggs' locations will remain secret until 10 people use the app to check in at an egg. At that point its location will appear on an interactive map, becoming public. Participants will be eligible for prizes.
From April 18 to 25, all the eggs will be gathered for a free exhibit at Rockefeller Center. Then they'll be auctioned off to benefit Elephant Family, a conservation organization, and Studio in a School, a program that brings visual arts to underserved New York City kids.

Tourney qualifying threw curve at EWU men
Monday's official announcement that Eastern Washington had qualified for the Big Sky Conference men's basketball tournament by virtue of its 59-55 overtime win over Montana on Saturday caught Eagles coach Kirk Earlywine and his players a bit off guard.
Not because they had made the tourney for the first time in five years, but because they had gone to bed Saturday thinking it was already a done deal.
According to Earlywine, he was told by an EWU official immediately following Saturday night's game that his Eagles (9-19 overall, 6-9 Big Sky) had secured one of the six BSC tournament berths with their upset win over the Grizzlies at Reese Court.
As it turned out, however, there was still a chance that Sacramento State – which was hosting Weber State later that evening – might make the tournament by upsetting the Wildcats and creating a multiple-team tie for the sixth and final spot.
But the Hornets lost, assuring Eastern of its berth.
Still, it wasn't until conference officials met Monday and examined all possible tiebreaking scenarios that the Big Sky officially announced the six teams – Northern Colorado, Montana, Weber State, Northern Arizona, EWU and Montana State – that have qualified for this year's tournament, regardless of what might happen during tonight's final four regular-season conference games.
"Our kids thought they were in after our game Saturday night, and I don't believe they were ever told anything different," Earlywine said. "I know I was going with what I had been told – that we were in. And by Sunday morning, all of my thoughts were on Weber State."
The Eagles play their regular-season finale against the Wildcats (17-10, 11-4) in Ogden, Utah, tonight, in a game that could still have major postseason implications.
Eastern, with a win, would secure the No. 5 seed in the tournament, provided Montana State (12-17, 6-9) loses at home to Idaho State. Weber could still earn a share of the regular-season, and the No. 1 tournament seed, with a win over EWU and a Northern Colorado (18-10, 12-3) loss to visiting Sacramento State.
"There is still a lot to play for, and even though we're in the tournament, our entire focus is on trying to beat Weber State," Earlywine said. "It's the only thing we control at this points.
"After (tonight's game), we'll turn our attention to the conference tournament."
Weber, which ranks No. 2 in the nation with a 3-point shooting percentage of 42.3 percent, thumped the Eagles 80-68 in Cheney in an earlier meeting. The Wildcats were 9 for 14 from 3-point range in that matchup, and Earlywine said a big key to tonight's game will be defending the perimeter.
"We've got to make sure we limit their 3-point chances, and make sure that the ones they do get are contested," he said.

February 19, 2014 - Products
In-cab LED lighting is now standard across Volvo Trucks' North American vehicle lineup. Optional LED headlamps, designed for better visibility and longer life, are now available for the Volvo VNL and VNX. Both the LED interior lighting and LED headlamps are available for order.
The solid-state LED interior lights and headlamps consume one-eighth the energy required of standard incandescent lighting and are designed for a significantly longer life. The optional LED headlamps from Truck-Lite Co. available on the Volvo VNL and VNX, models significantly improve visibility through an expanded beam pattern and light coloring similar to daylight. The headlamps also feature a lens coating to resist hazing and yellowing. Standard interior LED lighting on Volvo VNM, VNL, VNX, VHD and VAH models provide far longer life than standard bulbs while also placing less strain on the truck batteries than incandescent lighting. Red LED reading lamps are also available with the interior combination lamps, providing reading capability at night without sacrificing forward visibility.
