It's not the numbers that have James Blanchfield's coach excited about what's to come. Though, viewed from different angles, the numbers are already looking pretty good for the sophomore goalie for Niskayuna/Schenectady's hockey team. What gets first-year coach Sean O'Connell excited is how Blanchfield prepares for games. "He's a thinker," O'Connell said. "So he thinks about, 'How did I play this week, how did I play this game?' And he thinks about the areas of ...

Jewish Hospitals in Frankfurt am Main (1829 - 1942)
For the care of the patients, for the edification of the parish, for the good of the city of our fathers
The opening of Frankfurt´s Jewish Ghetto (1462 1796) and the granting of the long sought-for status as citizens (isaelitische Bürger) on 1st September 1824 (Heuberger/Krohn 1988, page 37) created the framework for the resolution of the cramped and outdated hospital system of the Ghetto time. Finally Frankfurt´s two Jewish communities the Jewish community with a liberal majority and the smaller conservative Jewish religious community could then establish a modern medical and care system. Both Jewish-religious (with their own synagogues and kosher cooking) and inter-denominational oriented hospitals and nursing homes emerged; even the conservative-Jewish institutions admitted non-Jews in accordance with the Bikkur-Cholim provisions.
As early as 1829, a few decades prior to the establishment of equality of Frankfurt´s Jewish population on 8th October, 1864, the Hospital of the Jewish Health Insurances opened its doors at Rechneigrabenstrasse 28 - 20 (next to the Neuer Börneplatz memorial). The Rothschild banker family had the double building erected: The barons Amschel, Salomon, Nathan, Carl, Jacob von Rothschild put up this house in accordance with the wishes of their immortalized father [Mayer Amschel Rothschild, d.V.); for the care of the patients, for the edification of the parish, for the good of the city of our fathers; a monument of filial reverence and fraternal unity (quotation by Arnsberg 1983, book volume 2, page 123). The hospital emerged from the two Jewish insurance companies for men (established in 1738 and 1758) and the Jewish health insurance for women (established in 1761) of Frankfurt´s Jewish Ghetto. All three health insurance companies were social benefit societies with their own wards where in-patients and out-patients received treatment. In 1826 Siegmund Geisenheimer, authorized representative of the banking house Rothschild M.A. and a member of the hospital administration, managed the centralization of the health insurances under the same roof in an organizational tour de force. In 1831 the hospital had up to 30 beds (Jewish health insurance for men: about 15 beds; Jewish health insurance for women: about 12 beds); an old Frankfurt City Guide (no author [1843], page 48) also praised its little synagogue (Kippe-Stubb). Claire Simon (Sister Claire) became matron of the health insurance for women in 1917. By September 1942 the hospital of the Jewish health insurance companies came to a sad end as a collection site prior to the Frankfurt deportations; allied air attacks on Nazi Frankfurt destroyed the twin building of the health insurance for men and the health insurance for women (cp. Unna 1965; Schiebler 1994, page 163-141).
The Dr. Christ Children´s Hospital (1845 1943/44) on Theobaldstrasse (today Theobald-Christ-Strasse), in Frankfurt affectionately called Spitälchen , was the common project of two closely befriended physicians and founders: the Gentile Dr. Theobald Christ and the baptized Jew Dr. Salomo Friedrich (Salomon) Stiebel, both Protestants. 30 years later, the Jewish benefactress Louise von Rothschild from Frankfurt established the Clementine Girls´Hospital on Bornheimer Landwehr 10 which was named after her daughter Clementine.
The emergence of today´s Clementine Children´s Hospital on Theobald-Christ-Strasse 16 resulted from these two respected institutions of Frankfurt´s patient care that admitted girls and boys irrespective of religion and social origin (cp. Hövels et al. 1995; Reschke 2000).
In 1870 the Hospital of Georgine Sara von Rothschild Foundation was founded first as the Foreigners Hospital with six beds at Unterweg 20. Initially, the hospital, also known as Rothschild´s Hospital, took care of needy Jewish patients, especially those who did not find accommodation in other Jewish treatment centers. It was called Georgine Sara von Rothschild, named after the daughter of the founding couple Hannah Mathilde and Wilhelm Carl von Rothschild; she was also the cousin of Clementine von Rothschild who had likewise died early and for whom the Clementine Children´s Hospital had been named. The body responsible for the Rothschild´s Hospital was the neo-orthodox Jewish religious community (IRG ): established in 1850; it positioned itself as guardian of Jewish tradition over against the larger liberal Frankfurt Jewish community from which it also institutionally broke away in 1876 (cp. Heuberger/Krohn 1988, page 74-77). In 1878 a new building, financed by Mathilde and Wilhelm von Rothschild, was opened, initially with 40 beds at Röderbergweg 97, followed by buildings at Röderbergweg 93 and Rhönstrasse 50 (staff residence). The senior doctor Dr. Marcus (Markus) Hirsch participated in these developments from the beginning. Seven decades later, in April 1941, the National Socialists also closed this hospital and sent both staff and patients to Frankfurt's last remaining Jewish hospital (Gagernstrasse 36, see below). Around 1943 air attacks on Frankfurt destroyed the building and property of Rothschild´s Hospital. The chronicler of Jewish history, Dr. Paul Arnsberg, a qualified attorney, achieved the re-establishment of the Georgine Sara von Rothschild Foundation in 1976 (cp. Lustiger 1994; Krohn 2000).
Jewish communities were - even in times of great hardship exemplary in building and maintaining a number of social welfare institutions (e.g. hospitals, orphanages, infirmaries, retirement homes, soup kitchens etc.). The basis for this is the obligation in Judaism to provide assistance to the poor and the sick and to assure the strengthening and restoration of the material independence of each needy person (Werner, Klaus et al.: Jews in Heddernheim. In: Heuberger 1990, page 46). This was also true for the once independent Jewish communities of outlying districts which are now incorporated into the city of Frankfurt am Main. Despite the fact that few historical sources are available, some information about Jewish nursing in Bergen-Enkheim, Bockenheim, Fechenheim, Griesheim, Heddernheim, Höchst, Niederursel or Rödelheim have become discovered in the meantime (cp. Arnsberg 1983, book volume 2, page 507-595; Heuberger 1990). From 1874 the small Jewish endowed hospital of the Foundation of Joseph and Hannchen May for sick and needy people existed in Rödelheim at Alexanderstrasse 96 (seat of the foundation), not far from today´s Josef-May-Strasse. Due to the incorporation of Rödelheim into Frankfurt on 1st April 1910, the hospital (until 1937 with Jewish prayer room) became part of the municipal hospital and was later used as a retirement home. Today (as of 2010) it houses the Social and Rehabilitation Center West, still a retirement and nursing home, albeit non-Jewish.
Further research is needed on the institutional history of the private hospitals which also offered inpatient treatment established by Jews in Frankfurt am Main. The first doctor´s office of this kind was probably the private hospital of Dr. Siegmund Theodor Stein which was opened in 1867 and later expanded to include the treatment of internal and nervous disorders. On 1st April 1904 the Frankfurt neurologist Prof. Dr. Adolf Albrecht Friedlände , of Jewish origin and born in Vienna, established the Hohe Mark hospital, a large hospital for psychiatry, psychotherapy and psychosomatic medicine set in the heart of the Taunus region (close to Oberursel near Frankfurt), as a private clinic for the European high nobility (cp. www.klinik-hohe-mark.com/allgemein/klinik/geschichte/index.htm, search dated 06-JUL-2010). The Herxheim Clinic and Polyclinic for Skin and Venereal Diseases became well-known in Frankfurt; Paul Arnsberg (1983 book volume 2, page 271; book volume 3, page 187, page 277) gave various locations for the institution: Friedberger Landstrasse 57, Heiligkreuzgasse and Holzgraben (both without house numbers) as well as Zeppelinallee 47 (Herxheim villa). In 1876 Dr. Salomon Herxheimer , who along with his younger brother and successor Prof. Dr. Karl Herxheimer was recognised as being among the German pioneers of dermatology, founded the respected clinic which also helped uninsured needy persons suffering from skin diseases. In memory of her deceased husband, Fanny Herxheimer established the Medical Councillor Dr. Salomon Herxheimer Foundation in 1899 to provide continuing care to poor patients suffering from skin disorders. Her sister Rose Livingston (Löwenstein), who had been baptized a Christian in 1891, founded the still active Nellini Church Foundation with initially 25 places for single elderly women of Evangelical faith at Cronstettenstrasse 57 (cp. www.diakonisse.de/html/nellinistift.php, search dated 06-JUL-2010). A street name in Frankfurt´s Gallus neighbour recalls the merits of the Herxheimer family (Arnsberg 1983; Lachenmann 1995; also cp. Kallmorgen 1936).
The "Gumpertz' infirmary" (1888-1941) founded by Betty Gumpertz at Röderbergweg 62 64 was an ambitious Jewish women´s project within the circle of the conservative Jewish religious community. It supported the poorest of the poor in Frankfurt´s east end whose numbers continued to increase due to the migration of refuges who were victims of anti-Semitic pogroms in East Europe. Nursing homes for patients with contagious and, at that time, incurable diseases were referred to as infirmaries up to the 18th century. The Gumpertz´ infirmary specialized in the care of socially disadvantaged individuals suffering from chronic diseases. Opened in 1888 on Rückertstrasse, it soon moved into a new building with 20 places at Ostendstrasse 75 in 1892 and into a new building with 60 beds at Röderbergweg 62 - 64 in 1907. Among the foundresses, in addition to Betty Gumpertz and Träutchen (Thekla) Höchberg, were the sisters Minna Caroline (Minka) von Goldschmidt-Rothschild and Adelheid de Rothschild, which was why the Gumpertz´ infirmary was sometimes also referred to as Rothschild´s infirmary. Thekla Mandel, as matron from the beginning until her marriage, was an active participant in affairs; she was followed by Rahel (Spiero) Seckbach in 1907. In 1938 the main building of Gumpertz´ Infirmary was sold under NS-conditions through the City of Frankfurt to the Hospital of the Holy Spirit (Schiebler 1994, page 135); at last (1941) it stayed at Danziger Platz 15. Since 1956, the August-Stunz-Center (Röderbergweg 82), a retirement home of the Worker´s Welfare (cp. to Gumpertz´ infirmary Lenarz 2003; Otto 1998; Schiebler 1994, page 135, page 282; also cp. Müller 2006, page 97), has existed on its former premises.
On 16th October 1890 Hannah Louise von Rothschild founded the medical facility and dental hospital Carolinum at Bürgerstrasse 7 (today known as Wilhelm-Leuschner-Strasse, a different Bürgerstrasse continues to exist in Frankfurt today); it was a state-of-the-art hospital also serving people in need. The Carolinum, named after her deceased father Mayer Carl von Rothschild, developed into a central and still respected institution of dentistry in Frankfurt. Hannah Louise von Rothschild was actively supported by the non-Jewish senior doctor Dr. Dr. Jakob de Bary chairman of the Carolinum foundation board until his death in 1915 and his daughter, Luise de Bary, who was matron for many years. In 1910 the Carolinum moved into Ludwig-Rehn-Strasse and affiliated itself from the beginning with Frankfurt University which was founded through endowments on 26th October 1914. Due to the deft dealings of the non-Jewish board headed by Jakob de Bary´s son Dr. Dr. August de Bary , the Carolinum survived the Nazi era as the only Jewish foundation in Frankfurt. In 1978 the dental clinic moved into a new building on the clinic premises at Theodor-Stern-Kai 7 where it is still successfully and, in accordance with the wishes of the foundress Hannah Louise von Rothschild, also socially active as a University Dental Institute of the Carolinum Foundation Center of Dentistry, Oral Medicine and Maxillofacial Surgery of J.W.Goethe University Frankfurt (German abbreviation ZZKM (Carolinum) ).
With the Mathilde von Rothschild´s Children´s Hospital (1903 1941) at Röderbergweg 109, also known as Rothschild´s Children´s Hospital, Mathilde von Rothschild founded an institution, which offered needy Jewish (and on request also certainly non-Jewish) children free care and nutrition. Initially 12 children received free in-patient treatment, later up to 100 per year, and in 1932, the number had increased up to140. Further research in needed on the conservative-religious institution and its certainly mostly Jewish nursing staff. In June 1941 the National Socialists closed the childrens hospital. They admitted the remaining little patients together with the nursing staff to Frankfurts now last Jewish hospital (Gagernstrasse 36, see below), which was misused as collection site prior to deportation.
In 1904 the Jewish business couple Auguste and Fritz Gans (in 1895 baptized as Protestants) established an inter-denominational clinic called Böttgerheim at Böttgerstrasse 20-22 (cp. Gans/Groening 2006). A nursery and a state-recognized nursing school for the training of baby nurses were affiliated with this modern and socially progressive institution; the nurses´ house was located on the adjoining Hallgartenstrasse from 1909. In 1920 the City of Frankfurt am Main took over the Böttgerheim which was in financial need after the war, and passed it into the sponsorship of the newly founded city health department two years later. From 1921 1929 the well-known German-Jewish pediatrician Prof. Dr. Paul Grosser directed the childrens hospital. Under the NS-regime the Böttgerheim was called Municipal Children´s Hospital from 1934. The hospital and residential care facility was re-opened in 1947 and continued until the closure by the City of Frankfurt in 1975. Today (as of 2010) the old foundation building as well as an additional new building house a birthing and counseling center for the parents of babies and infants (www.geburtshausfrankfurt.de) in accordance with the wishes of the donor couple Gans.
Due to generous donations from Frankfurt´s Jewish residents, the big Hospital of the Jewish Frankfurt am Main Community, which was built at Gagernstrasse 36 in 1914, became operational with initially 200 beds (cp.Hanauer 1914). The clinic with modern technologies, often called simply referred to the Jewish hospital (though many non-Jewish patients also sought and found treatment there), existed until the Nazi forced eviction in 1942. Its precursors were the Old Jewish Hospital for Foreigners (1796-1875) as well as the Hospital of the Jewish Frankfurt am Main Community on Königswarterstrasse (Königswarter Hospital, 1875-1914), both established in Frankfurts Jewish Ghetto. Senior doctor of the old Jewish Foreigners´ Hospital on Völckerschen Biergarten from 1817 was Dr. Salomo Friedrich (Salomon) Stiebel , later co-founder of the above-mentioned Dr. Christ´s Children´s Hospital . When Dr. Stiebel retired after working 40 years, the practitioner and gynecologist Dr. Heinrich Schwarzschild (1803-1878) advanced to be the second doctor in charge of the hospital. Not least due to his insistence could the founding of Königswarter Hospital at Grünen Weg 26 (later Königswarterstrasse) with 80 beds be realised in 1875; generous donors were the banker Isaac Löw Königswarter and his wife Elisabeth. Their ward for internal medicine was directed by the surgeon and obstetrician Dr. Simon Kirchheim from 1877; he was also an active promoter of professional Jewish nursing as a paid female profession. Rosalie Jüttner was probably the first Jewish student nurse at the Königswarter Hospital in Germany followed by Minna Hirsch, first matron of the Königswarter Hospital (closed in 1914) and the succeeding Jewish hospital on Gagernstrasse as well as of the Association for Jewish Nurses of Frankfurt am Main. Today a Christian-influenced institution is located on Königswarter Strasse (16 instead of 26), the Red Cross Hospital. (as of 2010).
Along with the new Jewish hospital, the nurses´ residence of the Association for Jewish Nurses of Frankfurt am Main was also opened in 1914. The internationally known diabetes researcher Prof. Dr. Simon Isaac was medical director and senior consultant of the ward for internal medicine until he emigrated. Further senior medical consultants were: for the polyclinics, the medical councilor Dr. Adolf Deutsch , for the women´s hospital, Dr. Arnold Baerwald , for the Ear-Nose-Throat-Clinic, Dr. Max Meier , for the eye clinic, Dr. Isaak Horowitz and for the surgery department, Dr. Emil Altschüler, who was director from 1935 of the Bikur Cholim Hospital in Jerusalem (still operating in 2010). In April 1939, the City of Frankfurt am Main purchased the entire property of the hospital for RM 90,000 through so-called Jews Contracts in order to rent it back to the Jewish community afterwards (cp. in summary Karpf 2003). Upon arrival of staff and patients of the already closed Rothschild´s hospitals on Röderbergweg, a Gestapo report of 1942 listed almost 400 patients, more than 100 employees (including the medical and nursing staff) and 37 student nurses (Steppe 1997, page 246). In October 1942 the big Jewish hospital was also forcibly evacuated; the previously accommodated patients were deported to Theresienstadt and other death camps. From November 1942 there was only one Jewish ward in a community accommodation (collection and transit camp prior to deportation) at Hermesweg 5-7. Its closure in the night of the fourth to the fifth day of October meant the end of institutional Jewish nursing in Frankfurt am Main. After the war the senior citizen center of the Jewish community of Frankfurt am Main came into existence on the premises at Gagernstrasse 36. Until the present day, no Jewish hospital has been re-established in Frankfurt am Main (cp. to situation of the Jewish hospital systems after the Nazi era Arnsberg 1970).

Yes, yes, Calvin, you are so right!
Some thoughts on Calvin and Hobbes and 9/11
For those of us who are adults, reading Calvin and Hobbes reminds each of us of our childhood, in one way or another. Many of us cherish our memories of a time of innocence that included seemingly endless summers filled with freedom. And we miss those days now, because we all had to become adults and take on so many responsibilities. We can never go back. Nevertheless, we do still have the freedom to decide to what extent we will pursue the joys of childhood in our adult lives, through curiosity, imagination, spontaneity, creativity, simplicity, freedom of expression, genuine relationships with others, the joy of learning, laughter, and so on.
For those of us who were adults in the United States on September 11th, 2001, today reminds each of us of exactly where we were and how we were feeling when we first learned of that terrible tragedy. But it also reminds us of what our lives were like before that fateful day. We lost some of our adult innocence and freedom on that day, and we can never fully undo the changes that have taken place as a result. Nevertheless, we still have the freedom to decide to what extent we will allow terrorism to cause us to be controlled by fear – whether it be the fear of another attack, the fear of people who are different from us, or other irrational fears that are sometimes exploited by those who are in power.
Calvin and Hobbes is set in the pre-September-11th world, from 1985 to 1995. Exposing ourselves to a little bit of that world each day, as we enjoy following the adventures of Calvin and his best friend, can be a good reminder that we should think about our pre-9/11 lives, and strive to incorporate the positive aspects into our post-9/11 lives as much as possible.
Soon it will be 8:46 AM Eastern time, exactly ten years after the first plane hit the World Trade Center. Shortly after that, hundreds of firefighters and police were rescuing victims and directing people out of the buildings. Please take time to observe at least a moment of silence today. Remember all whose lives were lost, as well as their families and friends whose lives were forever changed. Remember the great heroes of that day: those who survived, and those who did not. Also remember the great sacrifices made by so many people after that day, especially our service men and women and their families.
Finally, here are some words of Charles Schulz that are as relevant today as they were 53 years ago:
Peanuts (1958)
Thank you, Hobbes.
Ditto, Hobbes.
Ditto, Hobbes. Have you read the 9/11 tribute in The Meaning of Lila this morning? It is really beautiful.
you ain't so bad yourself, Hobbes.
my avatar, for today only, is my small tribute to those who made the supreme sacrifice trying to help others and to those others who paid the supreme price due to the intolerance of others. i hope the human race can finally learn the lesson that we're all in this together.
We match!
Very well put! Still 10 years after, I wish there some way to have known or been able to do something that day.
A great 9/11 comic today is Over the Hedge, check it out.
It just isn't the same. There are no breakables out in the yard.
Nice one, Hobbes.
Yes Hobbes 9/11
Excellent thoughts Hobbs.
Irrational fears. How true. Today's parents would be arrested for allowing Calvin to be outside the home unmonitored.
Wish Watterson would come out with a book of new C&H.
All the platitudes do not change the reality that Calvin, as a child, understands what most Americans, as adults, do not. You are not free because you say so, vote for whoever the ruling class allow you to vote for, or shoot things or destroy other countries that don't value military strength over civil society. As long as we don't get this the terrorists win, as they are all over the world right now. Today should be a memorial to our foolishness, no more & no less.
Well done Hobbs, thank you:)
But it's nat as much fun to do it outside.

Irina Bokova on her first official visit to the Republic of Uganda
UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova arrived in Uganda on Friday, 18 June 2010 for her first official visit to the country since taking office in November last year.
The Director-General was received by Mr Yoweri Museveni, President of the Republic of Uganda, with whom she discussed at length the cooperation between Uganda and UNESCO, especially in the field of culture. They spoke about the importance of preserving pre-historic cultural sites in the country as well as African languages, especially those in danger. The Director-General assured President Museveni that UNESCO will continue working to ensure the restoration of the Buganda Royal Tombs at Kasubi, and informed him of the recent decision of the African World Heritage Fund to allocate USD 50,000 for this purpose.
Irina Bokova thanked President Museveni for his country's generosity in hosting the 12th Regional Conference and Regional Consultation on the preparation of the Draft Programme and Budget for 2012 – 2013, informing him of their importance given the priority UNESCO and she personally accord to the African continent.
Director-General Irina Bokova also met with Ms Geraldine Namirembe Bitamawire, Minister of Education and Sports and Chairperson of the Ugandan National Commission for UNESCO.
Discussions covered the cooperation between UNESCO and Uganda with the Minister highlighting those areas where her country wished cooperation to be enhanced, namely for quality education, teacher training, the creation of UNESCO Chairs in different areas, youth and community media centres. Ms Namirembe Bitamawire also stated her country's intention to make a proposal for the creation of a centre on water management for sub-Saharan Africa under the auspices of UNESCO.
Irina Bokova assured the Minister of UNESCO's willingness to work with Uganda and help ensure the successful implementation of all the projects discussed, especially through its Regional Bureau in Nairobi. The Director-General also informed Minister Namirembe Bitamawire about some of the projects that she wished to launch for Africa, including one on technical and vocational education and training.

Rebounded from the tsunami
Banda Aceh is the northernmost capital in the northernmost province in Indonesia. Tragically, it gained worldwide recognition on December 26, 2004 when a massive earthquake rocked the city and surrounds, and a subsequent tsunami claimed the lives of more than 60,000 people in the city and more than 170,000 in the province.
Prior to 2004, the province of Aceh was off-limits to visitors without prior government approval due to an armed insurgency battling the Indonesian military in order to gain greater autonomy for the region. After the tsunami, both sides laid down their arms and the Indonesian government gave Aceh its long sought after autonomy, which led to the government of Aceh introducing a modified form of Sharia law.
Sharia law in Aceh can perhaps be best described as Sharia light, with casual visitors likely to not see any evidence of it unless they look closely. The main effect is that local Muslims are prohibited to engage in certain types of behaviour such as drinking alcohol and can be punished if they are caught infringing.
This means, of course, that alcohol is rarely served anywhere in the province because there are so few customers to drink it. If you search hard enough, you'll find the odd restaurant or hotel that can rustle up a beer or two.
Locals are extremely tolerant of visitors who don't wear islamic clothing and as such it is not necessary for women to wear a headscarf, nor is it necessary for either men or women to wear long-sleeved shirts. However, in order to not diverge too far away from cultural norms, it would be appropriate to cover your shoulders, not wear short shorts and not have any underwear showing while in public.
It should also be noted that men and women are not officially permitted to stay in the same room together unless they are married or from the same family, although this is seemingly overlooked by many hotel owners.
Banda Aceh is primarily used by travellers as a transit point for Pulau Weh, with few people sticking around for more than a couple of days. Truth be told, anything more than just a couple of days in Banda Aceh is probably too much, especially when you have the beaches just west of town crying out to be visited and the magnificence of Pulau Weh just an hour away by ferry.
Most accommodation in Banda Aceh is located right in the middle of town, a short walk across the bridge from the central mosque, Mesjid Raya Baiturrahman. Around this area you will also find plenty of eating options while most of the tourist attractions in town are within walking distance.
As a staging point for adventures down the west coast, Banda Aceh can't be beaten. Adventurous types come here to rent motorbikes or cars to set off to explore the rarely touched beaches of the west coast, particularly now that the road has been rebuilt post-tsunami.
ATMs are scattered throughout town, 3G internet is patchy but workable, and all services such as medical and police are available within town.

Metro Gets the Light-Rail Federal Funding It Craved
Let the latest phase of trough-feeding begin!
Metro had itself a party this morning, with tons of local officials making happy speeches and a federal official on hand to dole out cash.
The transit agency announced it's officially been cleared to get $900 million in federal funds to build more light rail in town, funds that had been endangered due to previous Metro administrations' ineptitude (to put the best possible spin on it).
"The rail expansion team, Metro board members, past and present and our entire staff, past and present, should be proud of accomplishing an enormous task. We've never lost sight of the prize and finally it is Houston's," board chair Gilbert Garcia said at the event. "We thank all the community patriots for all their help in making this day happen. This is a major investment in the region that will not only create jobs but boost economic development."
Metro CEO George Greanias said, "The $900 million federal grants more than double the local dollars being used to construct the 5.3 mile North (Red) extension* and the 6.6 mile Southeast (Purple)* lines and mark the first time rail projects here have received FFGAs. This is a great example of how we can leverage our local dollars to improve mobility in the region."

The feds had earlier seemed ready to okay the funds, but then launched an investigation into whether Metro had violated "Buy American" guidelines in buying new rail cars. The agency re-bidded the contract.
The total cost of the light-rail lines is allegedly going to be $1.6 billion.

Give Yourself the Gift of Boozy Ice Pops This Summer
Popsicles are great. Popsicles with rum? Even better.
Dark and Stormy Slushy
The Dark 'n' Stormy is a trademarked drink invented in Bermuda about a hundred years ago, but this slushy version is pretty impressive too.
The Cocktail Formula That You Need to Memorize Now
One easy formula, 9 cocktails.
BA's Best Carrot Cake
This is the only carrot cake recipe you'll ever need. This is part of BA's Best, a collection of our essential recipes.
Mincemeat Pie Filling
This hearty filling goes great with the Country Mince Pie from our Throwback Thanksgiving feature. It makes enough for two 9" pies, but you can freeze any leftovers.
Spiced Rum Punch with Citrus and Luxardo
Two types of rum double the fun in this citrusy punch. If you can't find kumquats, add another orange.
Sunset Strip
Ron Zacapa Centenario is a dark rum produced in Guatemala and adds warm, sweet, and smoky flavors to any cocktail.
The elegant Cuban combo of lime and rum has nothing to do with the syrupy slush you'll find at swim-up bars.
Rum Swizzle
This classic Caribbean cocktail combines crushed ice with spirits and citrus, "swizzled" into something between a julep and a grown-up snow cone. Frosty and tropical, it's the quickest way to channel island time.
Lime and Grapefruit Daiquiri Ice Pops
Refreshing and a little bit inebriating; if you've got kids running around, pick up a box of Rocket Pops so there's no confusion!

Cramer has issued a sell on Lowes and a buy on HD. I am short Lowes and continue to short more everyday the price goes up. Lowes stock price will fall. Just watch
Sentiment: Strong Sell
and now you are on food stamps?
Cramer!!! LOL
Sentiment: Buy
Keep following Cramer to the cheese line.
Sentiment: Buy
cramer shorts, you should buy
Cramer says sell, I am a buyer!
Sentiment: Buy
First mistake is to listen to anything the idiot Cramer has said. The wiser move is to short anything Cramer supports.
I think he's wrong. I like HD, but Lowe's is cashflowing a little better these days. Both are a little high, if you ask me, but Lowe's is doing better than most people think.
Cramer is a bald tool, he couldn't recognize a breakout if his wife was sitting on it, this goes higher, watch and learn fools.
Crammer is a stupid #$%$
Went short today 35.80..charts look toppy..and see all those sharp spikes on intra day at tops..they selling /shorting big chunks
Cramer says sell, I buy, he says buy, I sell
Wow! Shorted at $35. how's that working for ya?
Sentiment: Buy
and shorts ar getting slaughtered
covered 35.39 today looks strong..will wait for higher price to short
Think your right on that one! Im long at the moment,,, till Monday

Good grief - stopped playing online chess as couldn't find anything in new layout, just thought I would play a live game and happily doing so about 5 minutes into the game another game starts wiping out the one I am playing - not as if a tournament game or anything just appeared to be a random challenge - this site has really gone down hill - why oh why do programmers think they have to always change things.
There is unfortunately (I believe) serious detriment to the ease-of-use/functionality of the site now ? Not against the new-features at all but many of them should changed to selectable-options this would ease navigation-troubles.
An added benefit to doing this would be that statistics could be gathered on what is popular & what is not.
Thanks guys! I`m able to find stuff much better.
FREE vs. PREMIUM ACCESS:
Platinum/Diamond Members have unlimited access to Chess.com Mobile Chess and can play as frequently as they want. Gold Members get up to 25 moves per day. Basic Members can view games, but can only make 3 moves per day.
This I beleve is a ploy to force mobile phone users to pay and not necessarily fair.
I think there's a bug on the account privacy page. There used to be a box which you could tick if you didn't want to receive friend requests, but now there are two boxes about people being able to view your friends list instead.
That section is a mess Susan.. I sent in a ticket this morning to say I am receiving messages from people who said they can't send me friend requests, they aren't going through. I saw no box to check in 'Privacy; to turn on or off receiving friend requests. Staff's reply was I need to check the first box that is under INVITES. The first box is 'Friends can view my friends'. Which is something completely different to accepting friend requests. So I checked the box for 'friends can view friends' and sure enough I started receiving friend requests again. No logic in it, but there you go, that's what you need to do.
But I was happy staff replied the same day and the problem was resolved, sort of. Resolved from my end for that particular issue, but not resolved at their end for having it right for all members.

Agreed. The checkbox is mis-labelled. It's meant to determine whether or not you allow people to send you Friend requests. We'll fix!
I think the new chess.com design looks great and works very well.
Thanks chess kebabs :)

Michael, are you aware of the bug where MESSAGES sent and received are only showing page 1? If you click on an earlier page it doesn't come up. Hope this gets fixed soon as I often need to copy and paste from past messages. :)
I've sent in two tickets about that very same problem. The first one seems to have been ignored. That's how I use it, too.
Ok Gerry. I hadn't sent in a ticket for it yet. No need to if you have done so. Hopefully the software gurus can fix this bug soon, I rely on it a lot when adminning.

It's thought that Frederick R. Barnard first and foremost explained a graphic paints 1,000 words back in 1921. Imagine what he might declare about online video nowadays. When a graphic can certainly paint a thousand words, a relevant video really should speak billions or possibly trillions. A relevant video operates as a 24 hour a day marketing device for businesses, delivering the required communication when the individual chooses to view it. The video helps to brand a company, as it can help to set the organization apart from other organizations in the market. Use the video to point out to shoppers exactly what makes you're unique as well as why your products and expert services will be exclusive. This permits the shopper to see the reasons why they should decide to do business with you. Should you be showcasing a completely new product or service, you will find the recording allows you to demonstrate to the individual the necessity of this product or service. Shoppers frequently declare acquiring value will be their main concern when they buy something, therefore this benefit must never end up being discounted. Commonly asked questions could be responded to in the online video or perhaps these kinds of concerns may result in a completely new group of online videos. The choice is up to you. The true secret to getting good results here is to include a call to action in every video recording which is presented. One key benefit that is often overlooked with regards to corporate video clip production is actually social network distribution. Online video media viewers will probably share an interesting video clip along with their good friends on social media sites and this helps this company to grow their reach. A popular video clip could easily reach millions within a short time period, like individuals who were clueless they had any need for the product or service or possibly that it actually existed. Don't forget to make use of video clip client testimonials either, since they can be a helpful tool. It's easy for a company to write a fake evaluation on the web and attribute it to a customer. It's a lot tougher to do when it is a video testimonial. With so many applications of corporate online video media, isn't it time your company started making use of this technique? To learn more about this company or perhaps find more information on corporate video for marketing, visit http://tinkertaylor.tv/what-we-do/corporate-video-production/.

We don't know much about this little guy, except we figure he's a good bet to go number one in the 2032 NBA draft.
Memo to the Toronto Raptors - you want the number one pick in the 2032 NBA draft.
Anyhow, his name is Titus. He's about two years old. And he just might be the best toddler playing basketball in the world.
All of the clips in the video are Titus between 18 months and two years old.
As the entry on YouTube says, Titus "began shooting baskets shortly after learning to walk, we started filming some, and then got totally carried away."
Can't say we blame you, mom and dad.

The average time between a future star entering the league and making their first NBA All-Star Game is four years. LeBron James did it in two, although his name value alone played a role in such a feat, but stars such as Ray Allen and Carmelo Anthony give us evidence to the four-year rule.
This time around, however, the NBA will produce a new batch of generational achievements. With six current All-Stars over the age of 30, the league will expand it's horizons and welcome a new generation of players to the most elite individual stage of all.
The question is, who will enter the realm of greatness? Most importantly, who will do it quickest? With such a deep draft class, it won't be difficult to find those names.
Here are ten of them.

Rez sequel hinted
Veteran game designer Tetsuya Mizuguchi, something of a celebrity in his native country, has once again been hinting at future titles, without actually giving much away. The creator of Rez, a global cult-hit of the slow-burning variety, hinted that a long-overdue sequel to the Dreamcast title could finally be on the way - instructing US games site 1UP.com to 'watch this space', in a manner of speaking.
"Stay tuned!" he beamed tantalisingly, and this, added to past hints - must surely be taken as a sign that something is on the way. Mizuguchi is currently the head of his own studio, Q Entertainment, but developed Rez for Sega where he cut his teeth.
"It's always there. I'm always thinking about it," he told E3 attendees back in May. A new Space Channel 5 is also an option, apparently, but most recent chatter has always pointed to the likelihood of Rez in the first instance. Fingers-crossed for news on musically-inspired puzzle-oddness soon.

On the last day of the training Tammy and I noticed more people than usual milling about. The van driver from Uvira as there-we knew Flory had arranged for him to transport some of the women. But there were other people we did not know. We figured everyone knew the Muzungu were leaving and were hoping to get something from us. We had a short session after breakfast, naming off women who have made a difference in women's health and encouraging the women to not give up. Then it was the women's turn.
