The best people with whom to fraternize are those who are a bit naughty or mischievous. Not thugs or vandals, but people with an inherent curiosity that leads to random activity and conversation.
If you don't do some bushwhacking and stray from the straight and narrow, you will never know the world as fully as you can. This would be a pity, because we only get one smack at lifeball.
Don't get too comfortable, no sir or ma'am! That is pure danger. Keep the instincts sharp as to better anticipate threats from your surroundings. Even though your curiosity itself could cause those threats to exist.
These songs are to encourage you to act on a mischievous compulsion as soon as possible. As long as you don't go hurting people, get as badass as you want.

PINSON, Alabama - The city of Pinson is seeking public input on the possibility of purchasing the historic Old Rock School facility.
The Pinson Mayor's Office Facebook page states, "The City Council of the City of Pinson will welcome and receive comments during the final portion of our meeting next Thursday, February 7th, 2013, concerning whether the City of Pinson should explore the purchase of the Old Rock School for municipal and civic purposes. "
Solid Rock Church is selling Old Rock School, as well as Triangle Park.
Parts of Old Rock School date back to 1921, according to the Solid Rock Church website. The school building was added onto throughout the years, but eventually was closed down in 1998 and scheduled to be torn down. The website states Pinson residents saved the building from demolition, and in 2003 SRC leased the property. The group completed an initial phase to restore the building and has been meeting in it since 2004.
After completing its regular business, the Pinson City Council will hear comments. The City Council meeting begins at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7 at City Hall.

There's been a bunch of new creative announcements at DC this past week. Looks like they're not finished with them just yet. DC has announced, via MTV, that BATGIRL will get a new creative team as well as a slightly new look.
BATGIRL will now be written by Cameron Stewart and Brenden Fletcher with art by newcomer Babs Tarr. This begins in October with BATGIRL #35
Stewart told MTV that Barbara "wants the opportunity to have some fun and live the life of a young, single girl in the city, so she packs up and moves to Burnside, the cool, trendy borough of Gotham, to focus on grad school."
Fletcher continued "Barbara allows herself to be immersed in youth culture for the first time, exploring the social side of life in Burnside. That's not to say there isn't mystery, of course! Try as she might to live a "normal" life, Barbara very quickly finds herself drawn back into the world of crime fighting."
Gail Simone will be taking on another project, soon to be announced.

Darvish signs…six year contract…deal is done
3 Comments
…and now the haters can come out and second guess Daniels and Ryan before the kid even throws a pitch for us.
Yu-betcha! I can't wait until he pitches and the stadium is filled with Yuuuuuuuu! This is exciting. The Angels' fans have to talk bad because even before Darvish signed, I think the Rangers still have an edge in player to player overall matchups. Yes, the Angels' starting staff appears daunting, but the did at the beginning of last season too. Look how that turned out. I'm starting to come around on the idea of Fielder in this lineup. I wonder if the Rangers and Fielder feel the same way. Might more good news be coming down the pike?
I have never heard of this guy and I hope he works out. But is there something we do not know about his character… Shows up at the airport with a t-shirt promoting marijuana. "I WILL SURVIVE" with the picture of a pot plant.

|Thought provoking clips on lower angle climb. Holds are small, some sloping, but they are all there. 3 Glu-in bolts give the climber confidence to peek over the top, resulting in a beautiful view of the Pacific. Long distances between clips result in missed-clip groundfalls, so It is best to have your whits about you before attempting this climb.

|Really good route. Climbed this instead of the 5.6 arete on the right. Be careful climbing up to the first bolt. If you fall you can tumble downhill on your right and into the lower rocks. Have your belayer spot you before the first bolt. Other than that I really enjoyed this route.

Starboard Carve 145 Set Up (noob)

RE: Starboard Carve 145 Set Up (noob)
Hello Roly,
Welcome to the Starboard Windsurfing School!
Glad you f0und us.
OK, I'm guessing Eastbourne is in the UK, correct?
Are you sailing in a freshwater lake or in the sea?
This makes a little difference as the board has more floatation
per liter in salt water.
Now let's get down to some "parameters" so we are all speaking in the same terms.
12 Stone is 76.2 Kg. or 168 lbs.
That's not real "heavy" as far as windsurfers range of weight goes, so you are pretty much a "middle weight" sailor.
This is good as you will find that the Carve 145 may be a little less stable than whatever 175 liter board you've been learning on, especially if the 175 ltr is wider and has a wider more squared off tail.
So, let's discuss your questions one at a time:
1-What difference does the size off fin make and how do I choose an appropriate one?
For sails in the 6.0-8.5 m2 range, the stock fin (normally about a 48-52 cm freeride design fin) should work nicely.
If you use sails larger than 8.5 m2 you might want to upgrade the fin size (use a longer span (length) fin) to achieve a better balance between the sail size and the fin size.
If you choose to use smaller sails (< 6.0 m2) you may want to drop down to a 44-48 cm fin as this will "balance" better with smaller sails.
For a board as wide as the Carve 145, there is a limit as to how small a fin you can use as at some point you will be riding "on the fin" (not at your current skill level) and having the correct fin size can enhance the overall performance of your board. But, as sails sizes are changed, fin sizes also need to change to achieve a balance.
If you have very shallow water, or sea grass (weeds) you may need a shallower fin with more fore and aft surface area.
For simply shallow water, there are "wide chord fins" that give more area.
For weeds and sandbars, a good weed fin is both shallower, sheds any weeds that wrap around the leading edge (LE) of the fin, and provide a bit of a safety feature as they will "ride up" over sandbars, giving you a less abrupt "stop" and limiting any potential for damage to sailor/board/fin.
2-What size/type/make of sails do you think I need to get me going?
What size sails you need is very much "linked" to the amount of windspeed you are dealing with.
Board size can also be similarly "linked".
The more wind you have, the smaller the sail you need and pretty much the smaller the board you can sail efficiently.
I'd think, at your weight, that a 7.5 m2 would be a good starting point if you have wind in the 12-16 knot range.
If your windspeeds are < 12 knots, you will need a larger sail to be able to plane.
If your windspeeds are > 15-16 knots, then your 7.5 m2 rig is going to start feeling a little large and a 6.5 m2 rig would be better for sure.
If the 5.8 m2 sail you've been learning on is an older design, you can most likely get away with a 6.5 m2 rig.
Any rig larger than the 5.8 m2 you are accustomed to will seem large right a first, but you will quickly adjust your sailing technique, and I feel it's better here to have a sail that you can definitely "plane" on.
3-If I bought a 50/75% 460 carbon mast can I rig all size sails or do I need a smaller one for smaller sails?
Masts are categorized by both the length and the bend characteristics (IMCS/MCS).
Smaller sails use shorter and softer masts as this is what they have been designed on.
If you only want to get one mast, look for a good 75% min. carbon content 460 cm IMCS 24-26 mast as this should fit sails in the 6.0- 7.5 m2 range, and you will have a mast with the appropriate bend characteristics for the sails. This gets the most performance and value from both the sail and the mast.
Try to get the highest carbon content you can afford, in the "recommended best" size and brand of mast for the sails you are using. It should be printed right on the sail or the sail bag what the "best" mast length and bend characteristics (MCS/MCS numbers) are.
4-Is there any difference in UJs or will any do the trick?
While the "function" of the various types (rubber, polyurethane tendon,
mechanical) is pretty much the same, you will need a good solid joint that will ensure that your rig stays attached to your board.
UJ's is not a good place to save money. Get a good one. Your life could depend on it at some point.
I prefer the polyurethane tendon joints as they seem to last the longest are are very bombproof and secure.
Whether you use a Chinook (2 side release pins) or a Euro Pin (single metal pin with a locking device up inside the mast extension is completely up to you. I would check with other sailors in Eastbourne and see what they are using and get something similar.
You will for sure need a "mast extension" so you can set the extension to give the correct mast length for various sails.
Better to have a couple of these in different sizes so you can cover a wider range of sails without having a lot of very stiff mast extension up inside the bottom of the mast. On some sails, having too long an extension "stiffens" the bottom of the mast and can cause lower batten rotation problems. Also, if you have more than one, you'll have a "back up" that will get you back out on the water if something breaks oe gets left at home.
5-Can I rig a smaller sail on a larger boom or do I need several different sizes?
You should be able to find a boom that will cover the range from round 6.0 m2 up to 7.5 m2. For larger sails you will need a longer boom, and for smaller than 6.0 m2 you will need a shorter smaller boom.
6-How do I know where to place the UJ ie front or back of the slot and what difference does this make?
At first, I'd suggest placing the mast foot in the center (fore and aft here) of the mast slot in the top of your board.
If the board doesn't balance well with the mast foot in the center (i.e. it tends to head upwind all the time, or downwind all the time) up can move the mast foot to compensate to some degree.
If the board always seems to sail upwind, move the mast foot forward a bit and see if this helps. If the board always seems to want to sail more downwind, move the mast foot back a little to compensate.
What your are doing here is applying the "pressure" (force) from the rig a bit more forward on the board (and further from the fin) to push the nose away from the wind.
If you move the mast foot back, you are putting less pressure on the nose of your board and applying that pressure closer to the fin.
There's quite a bit more to this, but at your level, perhaps the simple explanation is better.
Hope this helps,

A police officer sits in a dimly lit room, watching a video monitor.
Blocks away, two men meet on a city street not far from an overhead camera. One hands over cash in exchange for some illegal pills.
As the two part, the officer at the video monitor, who watched via the camera's eye as the deal went down, makes a call.
He tells other officers near the scene that he just saw a drug transaction. Within moments, the suspect is in custody.
This isn't some futuristic scenario.
It happened in Lancaster on Feb. 28, 2012, and the conviction and prison sentence resulting from that video-prompted drug arrest recently was upheld by the state Superior Court.
Dauphin County District Attorney Ed Marsico said the same type of scene could soon be playing out in Harrisburg, where a relative handful of video cameras are being installed in the city's crime-prone areas.
"This is something we'll probably see in Harrisburg in the future," Marsico said of the Lancaster case.
The first of Harrisburg's cameras were installed about two weeks ago, but their potential is becoming evident, Marsico said.
"They almost caught an assault happening last week," he said.
The Lancaster County conviction that was upheld by the state court involved 62-year-old Santos Hernandez-Noda.
According to court filings, the Lancaster Community Safety Coalition, a nonprofit that operates "video safety cameras" throughout Lancaster City, had invited officers to its office the day of Hernandez-Noda's arrest because of concerns about frequent drug activity the cameras were capturing in the 100 block of Green Street.
While two city officers were watching the camera feeds, Hernandez-Noda stopped on the street, spoke briefly with another man, then took a plastic bag from his pocket and passed something to the other man, who gave Hernandez-Noda something in return.
One of the officers, an experienced drug investigator, concluded that a drug deal had occurred. He called an officer who was on duty in the Green Street area and gave him a description of the suspect. Hernandez-Noda was arrested two blocks from where the transaction happened.
Police said Hernandez-Noda had a bag containing 11 pills of a painkiller and a $10 bill in his pockets. They said he denied being a drug dealer, and claimed he had given the other man pain pills to treat a backache.
Records show Hernandez-Noda was convicted of a drug-delivery charge and sentenced to 2 to 4 years in state prison.
On appeal, the Superior Court rejected his claim that police didn't have probable cause to arrest him. He argued that the officer watching on the camera could not have seen enough detail of what was going on to reasonably conclude that it was a drug deal.
The state judges, instead, agreed with county Judge Margaret C. Miller, who viewed a videotape of the incident and found it "supported the police officer's belief that a hand-to-hand drug transaction had occurred."
Wes Farmer, managing director of the safety coalition, said the Hernandez-Noda incident isn't an anomaly. He said the 161 cameras his group operates throughout Lancaster capture crimes all the time.
"We cover about 60 percent of the city," Farmer said. The cameras are always on and recording, he said, and people monitor them from 12 to 17 hours a day.
That network sprang from just a half-dozen cameras the coalition installed in 2005. Farmer said operators can train the cameras to focus on incidents in progress, including manhunts and police chases.
He said that, in 2010, the District Attorney's Office reported that evidence provided by his agency's cameras led to guilty pleas in around 45 criminal cases.
While Harrisburg's new camera network has yet to post any conviction statistics, Marsico is hopeful.
Surveillance cameras in private businesses have helped in making arrests in robberies and other cases, he said, and cellphone cameras are giving witnesses to crimes expanded chances to capture evidence.
Camera footage, for example, played a role during a trial earlier this year that led to a conviction in a cab driver's murder in Harrisburg. The slaying occurred across the street from a business surveillance camera that recorded the suspect getting out of the victim's taxi.
Crime cameras also are coming increasingly into use in other midstate communities, including Carlisle.
Marsico said he expects big things from Harrisburg's fledgling camera network, which initially is focusing on the Second Street corridor. Its $452,000 cost is being underwritten with money his office gets from its state-mandated share of table game income from Hollywood Casino in East Hanover Township.
"These cameras will allow us to be proactive as opposed to reactive," Marsico said. "We'll see stuff as it happens. We'll have it instantly."

Kennywood's Noah' Ark is adding some new honors to its 70-plus year history.
The 76-year-old ride was named best funhouse/walk-through attraction in Amusement Today's 2012 Golden Ticket Awards.
According to Kennywood's website, Noah's Ark was built in 1936 and is one of only two walk-through rides of its type in the world.
The amusement magazine said the awards are presented to "the best of the best" in the industry and results are determined by "a detailed survey that is sent to a database of experienced and well-traveled amusement park fans around the world."
Those polled are asked to rate their best in 25 categories, such as amusement parks, roller coasters and water rides.
Idlewild and Soak Zone in Ligonier also picked up honors for Best Children's Park, while Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, was named Best Amusement Park.

Ynetnews.com reports that "a top U.S. official said the prisoners were released under the condition that they will not engage in any violent activity."
The terror activity of those released is not in question. Rather, their release is intended as a gesture to get peace talks rolling between the U.S., Afghanistan, and the Taliban.
Although this release is a stark departure from the standing U.S. policy of "zero tolerance [of] negotiations with terrorists and releasing of prisoners," Obama's State Department has may have found a loophole via their reluctance to define the Taliban as a terror group as of late.
One thing is for certain--the more prisoners Obama can release from Gitmo in a piecemeal fashion the quicker he can justify asking Congress to cut off funding for the prison altogether.

Northwest Wood Energy Team Forum

Terry Olson1
Kolby Hoagland, This is Terry Olson, owner of Biomass Heating Solutions, we met at Robbie's Espresso on the last day of NWETF. This was a great informational forum that gave you a lot of information to ponder. My take on the next step of the process to succeed in becoming more biomass sustainable. Is to put boots on the ground - lets get going on making it happen. My outlook is of urgency! What is the best plan to use in the successful completion of becoming biomass engaged? How about having a forum to discuss the best overall plan to expedite the process of becoming biomass engaged? It nice to meet you and I hope I can make a difference.
Kolby Hoagland2
I agree with you, Terry. Boots on the ground would make a big difference, paid boots especially. To get there (at least in the power sector), we need to find companies and organizations that need thermal loads to pair with electric generation. "Electricity alone won't work" was said repeatedly throughout the forum. Also, pairing energy production with wildfire reduction and thinning operations would further the resiliency of the facility and make funding the installation more easily pencil out. To this end, I had a good conversation with Patrick Holmes from Sec. Vilsack's office on how we might put a value on preemptive fire mitigation strategies rather than spending 10X more on fighting the fire. As we also heard at the forum, the cost of feedstock prevents significant development in the biomass sector. Therefore, I think creating incentives on feedstock in necessary. For example, there is currently no extra value on reducing fuel loads in threatened forests. As you well know, slash piles are create and burned along with all the funds went into the treatment. If federal, state, and local government were to assess an avoided cost value of fighting a fire and reducing fuel loads in threatened area and offer an incentive on removing enough biomass from threatened area, considerable amounts of forest restoration residue would be available at a better cost. Also, if deployed at a broad enough scale, significant funds would be saved from fighting the fires. This is one of many ideas. Thank you for reading my blog and adding a comment. It was nice to meet you.
Terry Olson3
Kolby Hoagland, I believe that the most economical approach to biomass use will result in the most productive outcome of that resource. I also, believe that woody biomass has the most potential in achieving the goal of using renewable resources for our country. It promotes local economy, gleans our forests, and reduces biomass user's heating costs by 50% or more. Biomass heating projects have focused on using wood chips as they are the cheapest to buy. But they tend to be large in scale, require a high maintenance, have high pollution rates and return on investment tends to be in decades if at all. I think these large scale application are best suited for electrical generation, CHP's, and heating districts where applicable. Smaller heating users (3 million btu's or less) would be better served by using commercially available pellet boilers that are small in size, meet EPA standards, and tend to be far cheaper to install. These stoves are low in maintenance, achieve great emission standards, and return on investment could be a fast as 3 years.

Syndiacted Loan Market Commentary 08/26/2010 0 commentsAug 26, 2010 5:49 PMThe markets started the day off on the right foot with the initial jobless claims number falling 31k to 473k, 17k less than expected. There wasn't a major theme behind the drop, but as with any positive macro number, the market took off. However we were unable to hold on and the market sold off after news broke that a Spanish court ruled that some of their government's tax-collection methods are illegal which put fear back into investor's minds that Spain will have difficulty cutting its deficit. Also, the Kansas City Fed said that manufacturing has slowed in the region, signaling slower growth and overshadowing the jobs number reported earlier. Despite the brief rally this morning the Dow closed below 10,000 today, finishing at 9,985.81 (-0.74%). The S&P 500 closed at 1,047.22 (-0.77%).The loan market was pretty uneventful again today and the market seemed rather directionless. However, after looking at the days movers, there was a clear positive bias in the market. Buyers are still out there and much of the trading was situational. Sensata's term loan was up around half a point after its rating upgrade and Oriental Trading's term loan was active post is bankruptcy filing.The Lipper numbers came out this afternoon and confirmed that the great hunt for yield continues. Loan mutual funds had a net inflow of $142.218 million this week, up from $64.648 million last week. High Yield funds also had an inflow $315.491 million, up from $49.556 million. I expect to see this trend continue, especially with all the media attention the credit markets are getting lately.Tomorrow should be a snooze fest, but be careful in the morning, at 8:30 we get the Q2 GDP number which is expected to come in at 1.4%. Have a good night.Headlines

Picking up a little extra steam with each passing round, Cumberland Valley advanced to the third round of the PIAA Class AAA Team Wrestling Championships Friday night.
The Eagles wrestled smart, disciplined and used several strong third periods to subdue District 10 champion McDowell 38-21 at Giant Center.
Cumberland Valley (18-2) won eight of 14 matches against the Trojans. But when it came to bonus points, the Eagles dominated.
"Our first match last night we were not crisp at all," Cumberland Valley coach Dave Heckard said. "Every match we're getting better. We had a little more energy tonight, and showed more fight."
PHOTO GALLERY: Cumberland Valley 38, McDowell 21
Next up for the Eagles is District 1 runner-up Spring-Ford on Saturday morning.
Sophomore Dayne Ross had the first of several big third periods for the Eagles at 170 pounds – the third bout of the match that started at 152 with a pin by Eagles' T.C. Warner in 67 seconds.
Ross was in a 2-2 deadlock with McDowell's Joseph Campanella. And escape and a takedown by Ross in a dominating third period led to a 5-3 decision to give the Eagles a 9-3 lead they never relinquished.
The other standout third period came from freshman Will Kaldes at 106 pounds. Tied with Gabe Stoler 2-2 after two periods, Kaldes built a 7-2 lead in the third before pinning Stoler with 8 seconds remaining for three monster bonus points.
"Will is tough. He keeps moving," Heckard said. "He didn't coast and kept going. And that's what I want."
In addition to Warner and Kaldes, Jackson Stanford also registered a victory by pin for CV and Patrick Duggan and Cal Reichart registered major decisions.
McDowell had only one victory where it tacked on bonus points.

All of the majors teams had their sprinters poised and ready to go.Things were going to be different this year, as with 35 minutes remaining in the 90 minute times event, Mercury's Mike Sayers went away with 3 other riders (Mike Johnson, John Peters, Brent Dawson). Within 1 lap, a group of 8 more came across including Fraser. Suddenly, a group of 11 riders including Sayers, Fraser, Johnson, Clarke, Friedick, Dawson, Peters, Carney, and Candelario were motoring away. Absent was Saturn, and it was up to them to chase and brings things back together.What a difference a week makes, as Saturn was not able to do what they did so well last week. The gap to the break increased to 1'10" and it was going to come down to the breakaway for the win.With defending champion Carney sitting on, Mercury was content to roll through and keep the gap. On the last lap, Candelario was leading it out when Carney could not hold on and went sliding down and out. Fraser quickly went outside and never looked back as he took the teams 82 victory.1.

An East Pennsboro Township man was jailed early Wednesday after state police said he was accused of assaulting a woman and forcing her to perform a sex act on him.
Christopher A. Smith, 31, of the 100 block of Charlotte Way, was being held as of Wednesday morning in lieu of $50,000 bail in Perry County Prison.
Smith's alleged victim met with state police Tuesday, according to charging documents filed by state Trooper Cory Robenolt, of the Newport barracks.
The woman said that Smith was at her home Monday night in Perry County when an argument started. He threw a glass object at her while she was in the shower and later threw her down, causing her to hit her head on a wall, the woman told state police.
Smith also bit the inside of her thigh during the incident and verbally threatened her, the woman said. He is also accused of breaking items in her home, including a fish aquarium, state police said.
The woman eventually said she convinced Smith to leave her home, although she told state police that she drove him back to his East Pennsboro Township apartment.
While still in her car outside his residence, Smith allegedly threatened to share personally revealing photos of her unless she performed a sex act on him. The woman told state police she complied with his demand.
Smith was charged with involuntary deviate sexual intercourse by forcible compulsion, a first-degree felony, and misdemeanor counts of simple assault, indecent assault and criminal mischief.
Court records show that he was arraigned around 1:15 a.m. Wednesday. His preliminary court hearing is scheduled for June 20 before Magisterial District Judge Michael E. Schechterly.

Around 1 p.m., Nordstrom changed course, announcing it had re-examined its policy and would pay the employees who had helped usher customers to safety and sat locked down in the store as police roamed the mall looking for the masked gunman.
But Nordstrom isn't alone.
Sears, for instance, paid its employees for Tuesday, when a lockdown began around 3:30 p.m. However, the retailer didn't pay them for Wednesday and Thursday unless they went clocked in at one of the chain's other stores or made an appointment with the retailer's counselors, said spokesman Howard Riefs.
Riefs couldn't say how Sears communicated that policy to its employees after the shooting that left three people dead, including the gunman, or what percentage of employees attempted either option and were paid.
J.C. Penney did not return repeated calls for comment on the course it took.
"We appreciate the extraordinary efforts our employees made for each other and their customers during this time."
While it might be easier for some consumers to vent at larger retailers, they admit they may have different expectations for smaller stores operating kiosks or temporary locations for the holidays. Many of those smaller operators don't have much in the way of a financial cushion.
Still, several smaller retailers at the mall said it wasn't a tough decision at all.
"In our case, it just seemed like the right thing to do -- in retail people don't make a lot of money and they're counting on it," said John Whisler, co-owner of Portland-based Kitchen Kaboodle. He had about a dozen employees at his location across a parking lot from where the shooting unfolded at the mall.
"Our people wanted to work, they were prepared to work, but they couldn't and to further penalize them seems pretty harsh. I can't imagine it would be a huge thing in terms of the amount of money," he said of the cost to other retailers. "But it seems like it's a great way to create really bad will."
Indeed or Nordstrom, it flowed Monday with threats of boycotts and word-of-mouth advertising. Many were upset because they have good friends who work at the store while others said they felt betrayed by a brand they'd grown up with.
For Marlynn Jayme Schotland, a self-proclaimed Nordstrom fan who owns a social-media strategizing company in Portland, the sting came as Nordstrom officials continued to post general responses to each complaint.
Over and over again the response went: "We appreciate you for sharing your thoughts with us. We understand your concerns and are currently looking into this for you."
Schotland retorted, "this canned PR response that you keep posting in response to concerned customers is NOT acceptable... Please have the decency to respond with humanity, kindness, and respect. The question is clear cut: Did you or did you not cut pay of your part-time workers who were working during the Clackamas Town Center shooting?
"The answer," she wrote, "should be simple: Yes or no."
Schotland was pleased with Nordstrom's reversal and said she'll be back to shop. And based on a late-afternoon social media surfing, she said, others feel the same way.
"From a social-media perspective, this may be a good time for Nordstrom to review its commenting policy," she said. "Their customers, we're all on there. That's where we want to hear from them. We don't want to hear a canned response."
Nordstrom later explained that it originally paid Clackamas Town Center employees for Tuesday at an hourly rate they receive when they're not interacting with customers. That rate is lower than it might otherwise be as they can't add commissions, said spokeswoman Tara Darrow. Also, Nordstrom originally hadn't paid for Wednesday and Thursday, based on a temporary store closure policy that is used for a variety of unanticipated issues, such as when East Coast stores closed after Hurricane Sandy.
After hearing from so many customers, the retailer announced it had re-examined the policy and would pay employees at a paid time-off rate for hours they had been scheduled to work Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. It also continued to offer counseling to employees, a move it made starting with the mall's reopening on Friday.

The Times-Picayune and NOLA.com cover this captivating place we call home, the diverse voices of our community will help guide us. Your voices. In letters to the editor, in online comments to articles and editorials, in conversations with our writers, we are eager to hear from you.
We are beginning a more formal process, though, to get input from our community. Publisher Ricky Mathews last week convened The Times-Picayune/NOLA.com Roundtable for its inaugural meeting. Fourteen leaders in business, health care, education, the arts and other arenas came together for a two-hour conversation about the issues they believe are most important for our region. There are 19 leaders in all who have agreed to be a part of the Roundtable, which will meet every other month.
We believe these sessions will be invaluable to our work. We expect to gain insights we otherwise might not have. We expect to be prodded and, sometimes, chided. We expect input from Roundtable members to point us to compelling stories and inspire us to write editorials. And we expect our readers to benefit from the collective wisdom of this group.
These are exciting and challenging times in south Louisiana. The degree to which the region has recovered from Hurricane Katrina and the levee breaches is remarkable considering the breadth of devastation. New Orleans is about to host its 10th Super Bowl, and the city is showing up on best-of lists for tourism and for its brain gain. One message from Roundtable members last week was to celebrate those victories. They pointed to the strength of our universities, to the entrepreneurial spirit of post-Katrina New Orleans and the opportunities in the biomedical district that is expanding downtown.
They also brought up areas of concern: Gov. Jindal's refusal to expand Medicaid under the president's health care reform plan, the decrease in mental health services, the violence in some neighborhoods, the cost of housing and prevalence of blight, whether we can hold onto the new talent in our teaching corps, the need for more regional cooperation.
But the overarching message from them was one of optimism and of devotion to this place.
Meet the members of the Roundtable:

Our destinations determined, next week, we begin our search for the Picasso of central Pa. tacos. First up on our schedule is:
11:30 a.m. Wednesday, June 18: Taco King in Lower Paxton Twp.
Taco King fans: What kind of tacos should we order? When restaurant critic Mimi Brodeur dropped by Taco King, she singled out their homemade salsas and sweet, slow cooked pork for praise. Was she on the right track?
Keep in mind: if you want your favorite crafter of tacos to take it all in the Taco Takedown, you have to vote! Voting will be open continuously throughout our visits. If there is a restaurant in this race that you know to be the winner, do not let its chances disintegrate.
After Taco King, here is where the Taco Takedown will take us (schedule has been updated to reflect a change in the order of visits):
Wednesday, June 25: Chiko Chiko's Mexican Restaurant in Swatara Twp.
Wednesday, July 2: Mexico Lindo Taco Truck at 15th and Market Sts. in Harrisburg
Tuesday, July 8: Mid St8 Taco at West Shore Farmers Market in Lemoyne
Wednesday, July 16: Smoke BBQ in Lower Paxton Twp.
Did we overlook a crucial spot in consideration of central Pa. tacos? There is still time to campaign for the tacos you believe can take out all other tacos. Let us know if we are remiss in not visiting another spot by commenting below and join us on Wednesday when the Taco Takedown goes down!

Half of the story in today's practice was Osi Umenyiora's return to the field.
But maybe we didn't focus on the most important half: the guy blocking him.
As much as Umenyiora looked pretty good coming off the ball and agile in his pass-rush moves, Giants left tackle Will Beatty handled him very, very well. He nudged him up the field when Umenyiora tried to get the edge and stood his ground when Umenyiora tried to bull rush him.
"Today I showed a vet, Osi Umenyiora, how much I have grown and prepared this off season," Beatty wrote on his Facebook page after practice. "I'm glad to have the opportunity to practice my skill on a great pass rusher in the NFL."
Frankly, with storylines flying all over the place these past few weeks, maybe we've overlooked how impressive Beatty has been so far in camp and in the preseason game against the Panthers on Saturday. He had plenty of 1-on-1 matchups in Carolina and handled them all well. And while he's allowed the occasional pressure in camp, he's more than protected everything on Eli Manning's blind side.
And now that you've seen what Jason Pierre-Paul did against Jordan Gross, perhaps it's even more impressive when I tell you that, in all the times I've watched Pierre-Paul go head-to-head with Beatty this camp, Pierre-Paul has never beaten him badly.
That's not to say Pierre-Paul hasn't gone through or around Beatty at all. I mean, I only have two eyes and I can't focus on that matchup on every play. And there have been a few times when Pierre-Paul fought hard and might have created a pressure or something in a live game. But I can recall off-hand lots more of instances of Beatty handing Pierre-Paul his lunch than I can the other way around.
And you know what, one of the questions I and the Giants' coaches had about Beatty coming in was how tough he could be on a consistent basis. He's shown it on the field and I think he showed a little of it in that Facebook post, too. That was quite the bold statement there … and I admire it.
We'll see if I'm saying the same things about Beatty in a few weeks and months.
* * * *
TE Travis Beckum (hamstring), DB Brian Jackson (back), LB Clint Sintim (knee) and Umenyiora were the guys returning to action.
QB Sage Rosenfels missed the session with strep throat. Rosenfels apparently played through the ailment in Saturday's game against the Panthers, which makes his performance there that much more impressive.
WR Sam Giguere was seen leaving the facility in his car, but Tom Coughlin said that wasn't an indication he had been waived. Coughlin said Giguere has a "serious groin" injury.
CB Prince Amukamara (foot), DE Dave Tollefson (back), K Lawrence Tynes (quad) and DBs Jarrard Tarrant (shoulder) and Woodny Turenne (calf) did not practice.
The Giants said DB Joe Burnett didn't practice because of a hamstring injury, but as you'll notice below he was in there for much of practice.
* * * *
LB Michael Boley has the hot hands. After his pick six the other night in Carolina, he grabbed another interception today on a slant over the middle in red-zone drills from Manning to Beckum.
Beckum made a couple of nice catches this afternoon. He had a pair on well-run routes in 1-on-1 drills, the first being an out route with S Tyler Sash grabbing at the back of his jersey and then an in cut in front of S David Sims. (Sash was later grabbing at TE Bear Pascoe on a touchdown as well.) Beckum's best play was a leaping catch on a seam route over LB Spencer Paysinger late in practice.
CB Terrell Thomas was mad at himself when he allowed WR Michael Clayton to fool him with a step to the outside and then a cut inside for a TD in 1-on-1s. He was even madder in 7-on-7 passing drills when he had an interception go through his hands. I was wondering why he let WR Victor Cruz behind him in his zone but it soon became clear he was again trying to bait the quarterback (in this case, Manning) to throw a ball he could make a play on. He did but he couldn't finish. Still the ball also went through Cruz's hands after the tip, so no harm done.
Safeties Antrel Rolle and Kenny Phillips were heeding the advice of safeties coach David Merritt, who always tells his guys to test their ability to rotate in practice. On one play, Rolle went down into the box as he anticipated the snap but it was a hard count by Manning and he was stuck down there. No problem. Thomas just rotated from his position over the slot to the deep half on the other side of the field and they went with a two-high look that provided great field coverage. Interesting stuff to watch from three confident guys.
In my game recap, I talked about RG Chris Snee and RT Kareem McKenzie blocking on a run for RB Brandon Jacobs on the edge. Snee showed his ability on the edge again today when he pulled around the corner and whacked Boley. Snee is outstanding blocking in space, as he has shown many times over the years, including on WR Mario Manningham's touchdown against the Cowboys last year.
With Tynes out of action, Ps Steve Weatherford and Matt Dodge handled short field goals. Weatherford was 2-for-2, Dodge was 1-for-2 as he shanked his second attempt wide left.
Coughlin wasn't happy with C David Baas on one play. That would be due to the fact DT Chris Canty was in the backfield untouched. Baas is still working out the kinks.
I'm still waiting for DT Linval Joseph to bust out. He always looks like he's right there but doesn't quite finish his plays. For example, against Carolina, he would get great extension off the ball but as soon as you'd expect him to shed the blocker, he'd get locked up again. He did a bit of the same today in practice as well and Snee didn't let him go. One play later, he sort of finished the play by getting rid of Baas, but it took a while. Joseph has all the tools; he just has to learn to make things happen more quickly.
* * * *
TE Christian Hopkins had a nice spin move on a short stop-and-go routes to blow past Jackson in 1-on-1s. WR Todd Watkins then followed by beating Burnett for a TD, with Cruz then completing the trifecta with a touchdown on a short, quick slant past Rolle. The offense was hot at that point and in 1-on-1s in general.
One other Cruz highlight: he drew DB Darnell Burks up on a well-run route to open up space for WR Domenik Hixon in the end zone.
What a matchup today between LB Phillip Dillard and FB Henry Hynoski. Those two met head-on a couple of times with mixed results. Dillard got on the board first when he slammed into Hynoski and got him moving backward. But Hynoski came back with a huge stick on Dillard on a lead run. The last meeting was a bit of a stalemate. Dillard blasted Hynoski, but Hynoski held the block. Dillard then delivered the wood to OL Mitch Petrus on another play. Dillard was looking for contact today and he found it.
TE Jake Ballard had a breakthrough practice with a couple of receptions up the seam. He caught one up the right side over a tumbling LB Jonathan Goff (thanks to a great ball from Manning) and then hit the left side to get past Dillard (thanks to a great ball from QB David Carr).
CB Brian Witherspoon, fresh off a big game against Carolina in which his technique was almost flawless at times, turned his hips a bit too soon on a comeback route WR Duke Calhoun sold as a go route. A rare mistake by Witherspoon, at least as this camp has gone.
To be fair to Witherspoon, Calhoun had a great practice. He made the offensive play of the day when he leaped to catch a deep ball from QB Ryan Perrilloux up the right sideline and over Burks, who landed on the side of his head when he came down while Calhoun kept running for the TD.
Great coverage all around on one play in red-zone drills from DB Michael Coe, CB Aaron Ross and Jackson. Coe was tight to WR Devin Thomas on an out route while Jackson and Ross were all over WR Jerrel Jernigan up the middle.
* * * *
Perrilloux had a terrific session today. He caught Sims napping on one play and hit Clayton in stride on a deep ball. Later, he threw the aforementioned seam ball to Beckum and hit Devin Thomas on a deep in cut in front of Burnett.
I saw some physicality from LB Jacquian Williams in 9-on-7s, which is a good sign considering the Giants have pegged this guy as more of a "run-and-chase" linebacker. Whenever he sticks his nose in there, that's what they want to see. Williams had another stop at the line on RB Andre Brown later in team drills
Big hit from OT Jarriel King on Paysinger. He's an interesting guy, that King. He's got great size (6-5, 321) and he's not afraid to be physical. I'll have to watch him more closely in the next game.
DT Marvin Austin came through on one play and was giving Petrus issues. I don't think it was Petrus who let him through, just that once Austin penetrated he was all over Petrus.
Paysinger had a good-looking pass defensed on a wheel route for Brown up the left sideline. The rookie LB got his hands in there to knock out what was a good pass from Carr. Brown wasn't happy he lost that mini-battle there.
I was surprised DE Justin Trattou didn't make more noise in the preseason opener, given the amount of time he spent in backfields last week during practice. He was penetrating again today and was in there to stop RB Charles Scott.
I'm starting to notice LB Mark Herzlich's form could be cleaner. Last week, I noted he came through with his head down. Today, he actually turned his back while trying to beat a block. I'm not sure if he was attempting a spin move of something, but once you have your back to a blocker, that's an easy finish for the guy on offense. That guy was Pascoe, who easily pinned Herzlich there.
* * * *
And finally, the Giants signed former Packers and Ravens S Derrick Martin, according to Martin's agent. The fifth-year veteran was a sixth-round pick of Baltimore and played in 28 games for the Ravens before being traded to Green Bay. Martin appeared in 14 games for the Pack in 2009 and played in five games last season before being placed on injured reserve with a knee injury.
The 5-10, 198-pound Martin should bring plenty of energy to the Giants on special teams and could provide safety depth as well. He had one interception last season before getting hurt.
No word yet on a corresponding move for Martin, though Giguere's injury could result in his being waived/injured.

When Jefferson Parish President John Young announced new policies Friday to handle publicly issued credit, debit and fuel cards, Parish Council Chairman Chris Roberts bristled.
He had introduced an ordinance in June to require such spending be disclosed on the parish website. The council is expected to consider it Wednesday.
"Having the Parish President issue a directive on an ordinance that was read in summary and set to be adopted next Wednesday appears a bit opportunist," Roberts wrote Young in an email.
"I guess it's questionable...unless it's just your intention to say you're the only person out there all for transparency, when that's obviously not the case," Roberts said Monday.
Chief Operating Officer Chris Cox said Young's directive and Roberts' ordinance were related but not the same thing.
"It's something we had been working on," he said. "We just hadn't finalized the policy yet."
To a certain point, Roberts agreed. He pointed out that an order from the president only lasts as long as his administration.
"A directive is one thing, but an ordinance makes it the law," he said.
Prompted by the string of disclosures about questionable spending habits of public employees in other parishes, Roberts introduced an ordinance that would mandate all credit card and debit card receipts be published on the parish website. Copies of the monthly statements from all cards also would be sent to the council chairman and council clerk each month.
Through his public affairs office, Young laid out detailed directions as to how his administration will watchdog such public spending. The only credit cards will be issued to Cox and Finance Director Gwen Bolotte. They can only be used to make purchases when the circumstances keep officials from using regular purchasing methods, such as contracts, proposal requests, wire transfers and bank checks.
Debit cards are to be issued only through the Parks and Recreation Director C.J. Gibson, according to the announcement. And they're to be used to pay the traveling expenses of sports teams registered with the parish.
Fuel cards are the domain of the Department of Central Garage, and can only be used to fuel parish vehicles unless otherwise authorized. Central Garage Director Nick DiGerolamo will be responsible for reviewing each card's monthly statements, Young announced.
Cox said the new policy evolved in part from the council's recent questions about employees' use of the cards. He said the new policy will guide administrators while the council's ordinance will codify that such spending be open to public scrutiny.
"Of course they're related. They go hand in hand," he said. "We're all working toward the same goal."

B. Smith Honored by D.C. Chamber of Commerce
Shevry Lassiter | 10/29/2011, 8:10 p.m.
B. Smith has spent several years ensuring that her businesses thrive, that people dining in her restaurants are comfortable and pleased with the food and service she provides, and that her home products reflect the B. Smith style.
Along the way, Smith, 57, has made history as the first African-American woman to sell a home goods collection at Bed Bath and Beyond, a nationwide retailer. Smith is also a spokesperson for Colgate Palmolive Oxy products and supports the community through work with the U.S. military and the American Diabetes Association.
For her accomplishments, she recently received the D.C. Chamber of Commerce Chamber's Choice Award. "When someone says I want to honor you, it's amazing," said Smith, who has 40 years of experience as an entrepreneur.
"It means people are understanding of what you do and it says that everyone knows you worked hard to get there."
Christopher Wiggan, Sr., a partner in the accounting firm, Mitchell & Titus, in Northwest, said Smith is deserving of the recognition. "[The award] is significant for any firm in existence for over a decade [because it shows] she is doing something right," Wiggan said.
"[I'm] incredibly happy for her and can't think of a more deserving person. It's wonderful," LeVar Freeman, 31, added.
With businesses in the Hamptons, New York City, and the District of Columbia, Smith has to rely on the D.C. Chamber to provide information on regulatory reforms that may affect her restaurant at Union Station.
One of the Chamber's missions is to advocate for changes in federal and local laws that impact business growth and development.
Meanwhile, achieving the level of success Smith's businesses have garnered has not been a solitary effort, as Dan Gasby, Smith's husband and business partner, has been instrumental in managing all aspects of B. Smith Enterprises.
Smith grew up in a household where her family did gardening, canned foods, and made homemade root beer. She said entrepreneurial spirit came after realizing that her mother could "decorate anything" and her father could "build anything.
"There is a certain determination that comes with an entrepreneurial spirit," said Smith. "[And that is] you intend to succeed. Come hell or high water, by any means necessary," Smith proclaims. "It means that you are going to work harder, you're going to work smarter."
Not being one to just watch things happen, Smith believes in making things happen. In recalling two of her most memorable disappointments - rejection for membership in a high school business club and being passed over twice to model for Ebony Fashion Fair -- Smith turned let downs into triumphs.
Smith, who also started her own Future Homemakers of America club while still in high school, remained persistent with Ebony Fashion Fair until she eventually secured a modeling position that put her on the road to cities all across the country.
Currently on the horizon for Smith, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of her New York restaurant, and hosting an event with the United Services Organization (USO) -- one of the many organizations she supports. She is also launching a new wine later this year.
