When people think drug trafficking, they think Miami, South America, maybe even Vermont. But suburban Boston? Apparently, yes.
The DEA recently seized over 360 lbs. (worth an astounding $700,000 bucks street value) in suburban Framingham, Massachusetts, with the help of GPS Tracking.
When cops spotted marijuana traffickers loading wooden crates with bricks of marijuana, they executed a search warrant and planted a GPS tracker amidst the reefer. Then the cops just sat back and let the tracker do its thing.
The GPS tracker helped cops locate the drug shipment where they made the arrest of three men that were loading the 12 containers of marijuana into a van en route to distribution. All three suspects are currently being detained in Massachusetts.

Man saying he's Christ sentenced in Kennewick
KENNEWICK, Wash. - A man who says he is Jesus Christ was sentenced Tuesday in Benton County Superior Court to more than three years in prison for spitting on a corrections officer last July while being held in jail in Kennewick.
Brandon Vanwinkle represented himself and was convicted Nov. 8 of custodial assault.
The Tri-City Herald reports the 34-year-old Lacey man was given the maximum sentence because of a criminal record that includes eight felony convictions.
Vanwinkle said he has been conducting a 16-year undercover investigation of the court and jail system and uses methamphetamine to watch how people work. He also referred to Rip Van Winkle as his father and Christina Aguilera as his wife.
He told the judge and jail staff he would sentence them in Jesus Christ's court.

Dark Side Of 3D Printing, Gun Prints Are Becoming More Advanced
President Obama delivered an impassioned speech on Wednesday in which he announced he would be signing a number of Executive Orders strengthening federal gun control measures. Despite the good intentions behind this action, new technologies led by 3D printing could make it very well impossible to totally regulate the possession of guns.
One of the things the President focused on was a ban on the sale of 30-round magazines. However with the advancements in 3D printing, a ban on sales of these magazines may be easily subverted. A group called Defense Distributed released a video on Wednesday in which an assault rifle is fired with a 30-round magazine that was produced by a 3D printer. The group's founder, Cody Wilson, stated that the point of the video was to show "I can already print this magazine and show that prohibition has run up against a problem." This is not the first time the group has sought to make such a political point. Just last month they produced a similar video in which a semiautomatic AR-15 rifle claimed to have been created with a 3D printer is fired six times before falling apart.
The problem for public safety arises when these types of assault weapons, or worse weapons that are undetectable to airline scanners, can be sustainably and reliably created using in-home 3D printers. The machines that may have the capability to produce these type of weapons currently retail for over $10,000, while less complex machines fall in the $2,000-$4,000 range.
Business Section: Investment Ideas
As the capabilities of 3D printing become realized, the freedom the industry enjoys could be curtailed to a degree. Any prohibitive legislation could certainly have an effect on the bottom lines of the companies that specialize in 3D printers and design. Because of this they are certainly worth keeping an eye on.
We have assembled a list of the leading 3D printing firms to help you start your research. Access a performance overview and free research tools for all stocks in the list, log in to start a practice portfolio to test your investing ideas.
1. 3D Systems Corp. ( DDD): Engages in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and servicing of 3D printers and related products, print materials, and services. Market cap at $3.57B. 3-D Systems(DDD) aims to put a 3-D printer on every desk. Their customers range from habbiest to small business owners and manufacturing giants.
2. Stratasys Inc. ( SSYS): Engages in the development, manufacture, and marketing of three dimensional (3D) printing, rapid prototyping (RP), and direct digital manufacturing (DDM) systems primarily in North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific. Market cap at $1.84B. Like 3D Systems, the company produces machines and special ink for all sorts of specialties, from healthcare to construction, to hobby art and beyond.

Many consumers believe that smaller is better. Few ventures seem to fire the imagination more than the boutique winery or the microdistiller—the family-owned David versus the corporate Goliath, turning out a handcrafted product against all odds.
In the world of spirits, craft distillers have been the rage in recent years. These distillers were usually defined as those producing fewer than 40,000 cases annually. Lately, however, craft distillers have been growing larger, and some are morphing into nationally distributed brands. While marketing can keep the romance alive, the challenge is maintaining quality at much higher production levels.
Solutions can be creative. When Patrón Tequila built its new distillery in Mexico a few years back, the company was faced with the problem of keeping quality high as the brand approached sales of two million cases each year. Distiller Francisco Alcaraz solved the puzzle by constructing 12 small facilities under one roof, each designed to turn out artisanal tequila.
Here's a quick roundup of some intriguing craft distillers' spirits to try:
RYE: WhistlePig, Shoreham, Vermont ($70).
Rye is the hottest spirit on the market right now, and this is one of the best—100-percent rye, 100 proof and 10 years old. It's made by Dave Pickerell, who spent 14 years at Maker's Mark. WhistlePig is owned by Raj Peter Bhakta, who grows the rye on his 400-acre farm. On the tongue, this rye is big, bold and dramatic, with lots of caramel, vanilla, honey, spice, pepper, tannin ... and class. It's an unforgettable whiskey.
VODKA: Death's Door Spirits, Washington Island, Wisconsin ($30).
Coming from a background in economic development, Brian Ellison, company founder, decided to help the island's farmers make their wheat crop more profitable. The vodka has a light and lyrical nose, and a rich texture accented by hints of white pepper. Combined with something floral, such as Dolin Vermouth, this would make a striking martini.
GIN: Spring44, Loveland, Colorado ($30).
Co-founder and CEO Jeff Lindauer claims to have "the purest water on planet Earth"—emanating from a spring 9,044 feet up in a national park in the Colorado Rockies and untouched by any municipal water source. Aromas of anise, juniper and orange rind dominate the nose; gentle flavors of lemon and orange coat the palate, leading to a resonant finish. Spring44 is the only gin we've encountered that could be described as elegant.
BOURBON: Angel's Envy, Louisville, Kentucky ($50).
Legendary distiller Lincoln Henderson retired in 2004 after nearly 40 years with Brown-Forman, where he developed Woodford Reserve, Gentleman Jack, Jack Daniel's Single Barrel and Early Times. He's spending his golden years making this bourbon, and it's a stunner. Aged four to six years in charred white oak casks and finished in Port barrels, the texture is rich, sweet and unctuous, with impeccable balance.
CANADIAN: Forty Creek Barrel Select, Grimsby, Ontario ($25).
Canadian whiskey is the Rodney Dangerfield of spirits; rarely does it get any respect. A few sips of Forty Creek will change that. It's made by John Hall, a winemaker who opened the first independent distillery in Canada since 1939. He distills the corn, rye and barley separately in small copper pot stills and ages the ingredients in white oak barrels before blending them into his "Meritage" whiskey. It's rich and brawny, filled with spice and flavor. It will change the way people think about the potential of Canadian blended whiskey.

It is a square pizza similar to Sicilian-style pizza that has a thick deep-dish crisp crust and toppings such as pepperoni and olives and is served with the marinara sauce on top.[1][2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit-style_pizza
Norma,Thanks to you and Steve for collecting all of the data on your Buddy's cheese and pepperoni pizza and giving us your assessment and opinions on the pizza. I will confess that I am often skeptical of claims that pizza operators make about the quality of their mail order pizzas. As I was awaiting your report, I was reminded of the experience that member DKM once had when he ordered and baked two frozen deep-dish pizzas that he had purchased from Malnati's. It took me a while to find his report but it is at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,571.0.html. It looks like you had better results than DKM had with his frozen Malnati's pizzas. Yet your pizza did not appear to be identical to a freshly baked cheese and pepperoni pizza as sold in Buddy's store based on the photos I have seen of Buddy's pizzas. I don't mean this as a criticism. It is what it is. I agree with you that Buddy's sent you more of the sauce than they use in their stores for the 4-square pizza. It might fit their 8-square pizza better. However, you at least have a sample in case you want to analyze it or conduct tests on it at some future date. My understanding has always been that Buddy's uses a Stanislaus tomato product of some sort. That aside, I have not found much in my searches on the makeup of the Buddy's sauce but I do recall that tasters mentioned oregano and a hint of garlic. Seeing the basil leaves in the sauce in the YouTube video you prepared, I might add that the Stanislaus tomato products that include basil leaves include the Full Red with Fresh Basil (http://www.stanislausfoodproducts.com/_pdfs/Full-Red-Pizza-Sauce-w-Fresh-Basil.pdf), the Saporito Super Heavy Pizza Sauce (http://www.stanislausfoodproducts.com/_pdfs/Saporito-Pizza-Sauce-w-Fresh-Basil.pdf), and the SuperDolce (http://www.stanislausfoodproducts.com/_pdfs/Super-Dolce-Pizza-Sauce.pdf). I do not recall that the Buddy's sauce is super sweet, which might rule out the SuperDolce. My recollection is that Buddy's has an herb/spice blend for its sauce and, according to lufty, the former Buddy's employee, the Buddy's pizza sauce is a watered down sauce (Reply 318 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,3783.msg136795.html#msg136795). By any chance, did you see any basil leaves in the sauce on the pizza itself?With respect to the cheese, I can't say that I am surprised that it did not appear that there was 8 ounces on the pizza you received. It's not clear whether all of the pizza assemblers at Buddy's use portioning cups or just free throw the cheese onto the pizza, but in either case, the amount of cheese can vary from one pizza to another. You might also remember that in one of the exchanges that I had with Buddy's I was told that there are variations on the items that go on their pizzas because they are using volume measurements rather than weights. From the photos, it also looks like the Buddy's cheese is diced rather than shredded. Was that your observation also?It is also good that you were able to confirm that, to the best of your knowledge, there was only one type of cheese used on the pizza you received. To the extent there was a mystery on that point, it appears that it has been resolved. If that is in fact so, then I think it is safe to say that the cheese is brick cheese. The pepperoni slices appear to be in the ballpark in terms of diameter but a bit light in the weight department when compared with the data you previously received on the Margherita coarse grind pepperoni. No doubt there were some losses in weight due to oiling off during baking and maybe a small amount of shrinkage. In any event, I can't say that we can rule out the Margherita coarse grind pepperoni as the product that Buddy's uses on its pizzas with pepperoni. By any chance, were you able to determine how many pepperoni slices were used in the pizza you received? Like you, I noticed that the difference between the "before" and "after" weighs of the pizza was not large. However, it should be remembered that there would have been some losses during the partial baking of the pizza. We will never know what those losses were. On the matter of the crumb and its relationship to the hydration of the dough, it is hard to know what to make of the tighter crumb of the Buddy's pizza you received since the pizza was partially baked and then frozen, making it hard to say whether those two steps had an effect on the crumb. When I read your comment on the air bubbles at the bottom crust and that the bottom crust was not especially flat, I was reminded that Tom Lehmann was once asked about that over at the PMQ Think Tank. I did a search of that forum and found two questions on that point, one at http://thinktank.pmq.com/viewtopic.php?p=75816#p75816 and the other at http://thinktank.pmq.com/viewtopic.php?p=49630#p49630. I don't believe that Tom ever responded to the first questioner but he did answer the second questioner at http://thinktank.pmq.com/viewtopic.php?p=49641#p49641. Interestingly, Tom blamed shortening for the cratering problem, not oil, which is what the first questioner used. I was also intrigued by the first questioner's post (at http://thinktank.pmq.com/viewtopic.php?p=75816#p75816) since it described a Detroit style dough that has similarities to the Detroit style doughs we have been studying and researching for some time. It was also the first time that I read of someone using the Lloyd anodized pans (most likely a Sicilian pan rather than one of their Detroit style pans, based on the size) to make the questioner's Detroit style pizza. I'm glad that both you and Steve enjoyed the pizza. But what I'd really like to know is how you (and Steve, if he wishes to opine on the matter) would compare the Buddy's clone pizzas you have been making with the Buddy's pizza you and Steve ate. And did you learn anything from the Buddy'a pizza that would give you cause to change anything you have been doing to arrive at a credible Buddy's clone dough or pizza?Peter
In the pictures, it looks like the sauce has some oil in it?
I really dont know how to do tests on the Buddys sauce but it tasted really good and fresh. I would have thought it also was a Stanislaus tomato product. As you probably know I do use Saporito Super Heavy Pizza Sauce. I really cant tell if it was Saporito Super Heavy with water added, but dont really think so because of those tiny bits of what looked like ground-up skins of tomatoes. Does The Full Red with basil have those kind of tomatoes peel pieces in them? I think I did use Full Red with basil at one time, but dont recall those little pieces of whatever it was in the sauce. I really couldnt taste a lot garlic in Buddys sauce, but then I really taste it that much in mine either.
Dont you think that the before Buddys cheese and pepperoni pizza weight was even a little low, in comparison to my final bake weights of the clones I have been attempting?
Joe said the other brick cheese is very mild and is yellow. After Joe said the mild brick cheese is yellow, I looked at the 1 lb. of Specialty brick cheese on Widmers website at http://www.widmerscheese.com/products/Vac-Pack-Mild-Specialty-Brick-1-lb.html but then looked at the 5 lb. Specialty Brick Cheese at http://www.widmerscheese.com/products/Vac-Pack-Whole-Mild-Specialty-Brick-5-lb.html and that brick cheese looks yellow, unless that is the type of wrapping they use that makes it look yellow. The 1 lb. Mild Specialty Brick sure looks white to my eyes.
Did you note whether there were any basil leaves in the sauce on the Buddy's pizza, and did you note any bits of skin in that sauce? The reason I ask is because Buddy's offers two sauce choices for its square pizzas. One is called the Original and the other is called a Tomato Basil Sauce. I tend not to think that Buddy's adds the basil leaves to its sauce but rather it comes that way from its supplier. I wondered whether the sauce that you got in the small container was the Tomato Basil Sauce rather than the Original sauce, which may not have any basil leaves in it. The distinction is important since it would dictate the tomato products Buddy's gets from its supplier. For example, if you look at the "from scratch" tomato products from Stanislaus Products at http://www.stanislausfoodproducts.com/products/real-italian-products/from-scratch-products, you will find some products that do have bits of skin in them, such as the 7/11 Ground Tomatoes and the Full Red Pizza Sauce (known in some areas as Full Red Concentrated Crushed). The latter product can also include basil leaves if desired. The descriptions for the Saporito and SuperDolce products do not make any reference to bits of skin in those products. The puree tomato products do not include any skin (or seeds).

The latter product can also include basil leaves if desired. The descriptions for the Saporito and SuperDolce products do not make any reference to bits of skin in those products. The puree tomato products do not include any skin (or seeds). Yes, I do, but unfortunately there is no way to calculate the full extent of the losses during baking because some of those losses took place during the partial baking of the Buddy's pizza. The "before" and "after" weights you provided suggest a loss during the final bake of 3.34%. If we assume that your "half baked" pizza sustained a similar loss during the partial baking, that would take us to 6.68%. If I used that number and worked backwards to a pre-baked weight, and used the standard amounts for cheese, pepperoni and sauce, the dough ball weight would be somewhere around 6 ounces. We know that can't be right. That said, I'd still like to see how a Buddy's emergency clone pizza using 9 ounces of dough turns out when baked in your deck oven at market with the standard amounts of brick cheese (or one of your blends), pepperoni and sauce. Peter
Norma,Im guessing it is that very pale yellow that you see in some softer, higher fat cheeses. Id bet its not very yellow. You and I probably wouldnt call it yellow if we saw it in person. He probably meant its not pure white like some cheddars. Just a guess.Craig
This is what Bobby replied to me in an email.Hi Norma, Mike is back and catching up. The quickest way to get you a sample bag is thru the local broker in Philly. Unfortunatley, I do not have that contact number. I will get with Mike to see if he can expedite this project.
Norma, I worked for a foodservice brokerage for years. He's right that for manufacturers that use brokers (as opposed to a dedicated sales force), the best way to get samples or information is through the broker. Foodservice brokers typically have people that all they do all day is run around and deliver samples. People are expensive, and nowadays, most manufacturers use brokers because it is often more cost effective than hiring their own sales force (Hormel, where I also worked, is a notable exception). As such, they typically don't have the resoures to deal with consumer questions and needs directly because they have outsourced that capacity to the brokers. Craig
I don't see where Buddy's, Shield's, or Detroit use the word "maranara" for their pizza either.
If you look at second, third and fourth pictures I posted at Reply 526 it looked to me like that was a part basil leaf on the Buddys pizza. http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,21559.msg225586.html#msg225586 I didnt think about it at the time, but should have taken it off and tasted it to see if it really was basil or something else.Whatever it was it also can be seen in the second picture at Reply 529 http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,21559.msg225589.html#msg225589 There is no way now that I can now investiage what it was.
No, I didnt notice any bits of skin in the sauce in the Buddys pizza. I believe you are right that the extra sauce Buddys gave me was the Tomato Basil sauce. Thanks for the links to the Stanislaus Products. When Steve and I tasted the extra sauce it really had a great taste, but I sure dont recall the sauce on the Buddys pizza having that same great taste, but just thought the taste changed somehow after the pizza had the final bake. I didnt think about it yesterday, but Steve and I could have scratched some of the sauce off of the Buddys pizza and tasted it before the final bake. I can email Buddys to ask if the extra sauce was the same as used on a regular 4-square pizza if you want me to. I have the email address to Dennis.
I can understand there can be no way to work back to what happened with weight losses in Buddys pizza. I still have some of the Eddies brick cheese and can try an emergency dough using 9 ounces of dough with the standard amounts of brick cheese, pepperoni and sauce. Do you mean that I would make the emergency dough in the morning before I go to market with 0.80% IDY?
I also wanted to post that I wrote Bobby at Armour-Eckrich Meat another email this morning. I have not heard from Mike that was on vacation last week. I just asked if there was any way I could obtain a small sample of the coarse grind pepperoni before I keep trying to find distributors in my area. At least if I had a sample of the coarse grind pepperoni I could try it on my clone attempts and be able to weigh it more.
Norma,I saw the fleck of whatever it was. I thought that it might have been a dried herb in the seasoning that Buddy's uses in making the sauce. If you don't mind, I'd be interested in what Dennis might tell you, if he remembers what sauce he sent you. However, as I previously noted, and as is stated on the Buddy's menus, customers have a choice between the Original sauce and the Tomato Basil sauce. You might ask Dennis what the difference is between the two sauces. That is what I was thinking if it is doable without messing up your schedule at market. As you have indicated, you have not seen a major difference between the emergency Buddy's clones and the non-emergency versions. If so, then you might find that an emergency version might be the one to use at market as the standard. It might not be based on a 9-ounce dough ball but some other weight. The 9-ounce dough ball test might tell us whether that is a viable weight.That would be great if you can swing it. Having the sample might also help you confirm whether you had the Margherita pepperoni on your Buddy's pizza. And maybe you will like it well enough to consider using it if the pricing is right and is readily available to you.Peter
I know I posted I have not seen any major difference in using an emergency Buddys dough and a non-emergency one. Do you mean I would have to make the emergency dough at market each Tuesday morning or have frozen emergency doughs ready. I think trying to mix emergency doughs in the morning at market would give me too many more dishes to wash and put away and also I would have to get earlier in the morning. Dont forget I am getting old and the day is long at market as it is. I will use a 9 ounce dough for the emergency dough. Does it matter if it is frozen, or should I make the emergency dough fresh on Tuesday morning?
I think the misspelling is some Detroit thing - the Via313 menu uses it and I emailed them a long time ago about the "mistake" but they never responded or changed the menu.
Norma,Now I better understand what you are saying. Since the 9-ounce dough ball test is mainly to determine whether that is an amount that works, and maybe is close to what Buddy's is using, I think you can go with a frozen emergency dough version. I assume that you would make and freeze the test dough ball at home and let it thaw out on Monday at market for use on Tuesday. Is that correct?If you end up selling your Detroit style clone pizzas at market, are you thinking of a one-day cold ferment version of the dough that is made at market on Monday for use on Tuesday?Peter
Via313 uses "Marinara" as a type of pizza (and it is now spelled correctly), they just say "fresh crushed tomato" for the actual sauce.
I could also make a quick emergency dough ball at home Tuesday morning if you want me to.

education reform
Is there a student loan bubble?
You might have read one of the increasingly frequent stories (like this solid essay in n+1) about a student loan bubble. The basics:
- College is widely believed to be the ticket to success. Degree-holders are more likely to be employed and they make more income than non-holders.
- Many people tried to take refuge from a lousy job market by going to college, and the recession also pinched state budgets, forcing schools to raise tuition.
- Consequently, the amount of student loan debt has exploded toward $1 trillion, eclipsing even consumer credit. Since student loan debt is impossible to discharge even in bankruptcy, it was widely considered safe for lenders, and was securitized much in the same fashion as mortgages.
- As punishing as the rules for paying student loans are, those saddled with the debt have been unable to pay—many fresh graduates aren't competitive candidates for still-scarce jobs. Only 40% of student loans are being actively repaid. So lenders are starting to pull out.
Over the longer term, the growth in college costs has far outpaced inflation for decades ("Since 1978, the price of tuition at US colleges has increased over 900 percent, 650 points above inflation"), while the added-income value of those degrees has not grown at nearly the same pace. The oft-quoted statistic that college graduates make $1 million more over a lifetime is misleading (it doesn't take into account years of foregone income, for one thing), and there's reason to suspect that much of the real discrepancy is due to correlation: students who have what it takes to pass through the filter of college admissions and stick it out are likely the kind of people who would make more money over their lifetimes anyway.
But is that enough to call it a bubble?
First, no one can really walk away from student loan debt like they can walk away from a mortgage, so many currently nonperforming loans can be expected to perform again when employment picks up.
Second, even if many people lose faith that a college degree is worth the price, tens of millions of kids have been groomed for college from a young age, and it's true that employers still use college degrees as a significant signal of value.
That faith is unlikely to collapse overnight, and even if it did, it would take time for businesses to adjust. Employers would have to start signaling a greater interest in other factors that prospective employees could substitute for accredited colleges.
Even entry-level jobs have college-educated competition, so how is a young adult to invest his time and credit, other than jumping on the subsidized college bandwagon?
- Take a risk on going unemployed for a stretch?
- Work for free? (He'd still have to compete with college students.) Aside from internships, working for less than the minimum wage to establish one's value as an employee is generally prohibited.
- Try to convince employers that alternative forms of study are as valuable as college experience?
These are luxuries many can't afford. There are federal guarantees for college money, but the closest thing a young adult can get to a subsidy for entrepreneurship or job hunting is the welfare state safety net if he fails. The college path is blazed, even if it is the scenic route.
So for now, the lack of alternatives will help ensure there's no big "pop" but a few marginal shifts:
- Young adults will try to attend cheaper schools, work through college, and take on less debt.
- Creditors will be less generous with student loans while repayment rates remain low.
- And colleges will get by on less money than they planned to have.
As much as we need greater competition in postsecondary education, and better alternatives for young adults to build and signal their value, no student loan "bubble" will do the job. It isn't a bubble if the air has nowhere to escape.

A species complex is a group of closely related species, where the point of species separation is unclear.
Our comprehensive research into the Anopheles barbirostris species complex, will identify species and isolate those that are vectors of malarial parasites in Indonesia.
One of the strengths of this research programme is the integration of morphological taxonomy with molecular studies, to ensure that the results of DNA sequencing are in agreement with formal taxonomy.
Fieldwork has been conducted in eastern Java, where the taxonomy, distribution and disease relations of Anopheles barbirostris are uncertain.
Molecular data indicate that Anopheles barbirostris comprises of three or four species in Southeast Asia, but which of these species may be malaria vectors is unknown.
Both morphological and molecular studies are underway to resolve the formal taxonomy and develop identification methods that will help medical entomological studies of the individual species.

Barnstormers storming to the Midwest this yearFriday, April 13th, 2012
The airplanes will swoop into five cities this year. Pilot and PR coordinator Sarah Wilson says the tour has been scaled back just a bit from previous years (when it debuted in 2006, there were 15 biplanes and they toured nine cities).
"We just weren't sure we could do it this year," she says. Pilots come from all over the nation–in airplanes that average speeds 100 mph or less–to form the tour. But the "core group"–those pilots who have participated from the beginning–said, "Please, let's do another one," Wilson says. The pilots will remain three days at each stop, giving them more time between legs.
Here's the schedule:
- Aug. 9-11: Fargo Air Museum at Hector International Airport, Fargo, North Dakota
- Aug. 12-14: Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport, Brainerd, Minn.
- Aug. 16-18: Chippewa Valley Regional Airport, Eau Claire, Wis.
- Aug. 19-21: Manitowoc County Airport, Manitowoc, Wis.
- Aug. 23-26: De Kalb Taylor Municipal Airport, De Kalb, Ill.
New to the tour this year are Wilson's 1929 Stearman Model 4E; a 1937 Waco YKS-7, and a Curtiss Pusher.
My colleagues Al Marsh and Mike Fizer joined the group for their inaugural tour in 2006. (You can see the article, video, and photos here.) Al recalls without the least bit of nostalgia the heat wave that ensnared Michigan that July. With temps reaching 105, he wondered how the tour pilots handled it in their heavy costumes.
Still. Flying with biplane pilots on a tour of the heartland? Steven Tyler, you can keep your Rock 'n' Roll fantasy camp. This one's more my speed.

In Years Past
100 Years Ago
In 1913, the new local union of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employees of America, at a meeting Wednesday night declared by a unanimous vote to declare a strike against the Jamestown Street Railway Company and the Chautauqua Traction Company taking the stand that all honorable means of bringing about a peaceable settlement of the differences between members of the union and the two companies had been exhausted and a strike was therefore the only thing to do. There had been no violence thus far but the police department was taking no chances and several special policemen were sworn in this morning. The deputy sheriffs in the city were also on the job in order to prevent trouble.
Henry B. Wilhelm dropped dead at the corner of Fifth Street and Prendergast Avenue in Jamestown about 10 a.m. Wilhelm resided at 46 Grant St. and for over 10 years had been in the employ of the George Irish Paper Company. He was on his way from his home to the city when he was taken suddenly ill and died before anyone could reach him. Wilhelm was exceptionally well-known not only in Jamestown but throughout Western New York and Pennsylvania, where he had traveled for many years. He was a veteran of the Civil War, having served in a Pennsylvania regiment.
75 Years Ago
In 1938, maintaining that widespread publicity in the press had created a strong sentiment in Arkwright Township against them, four Dunkirk and Fredonia youths charged with malicious mischief for the alleged damage to gravestones in Cassadaga Cemetery, applied to County Judge Lee L. Ottaway to have their cases certified to the grand jury. The lawyers asked that the case be sent to the grand jury instead of having Justice of the Peace A.J. Black, Arkwright, dispose of the case, claiming that the youths could not secure a fair and impartial trial there because of the sentiment created by publication of their alleged acts. Thirty-three monuments and grave markers were recently toppled from their base in Christian Cemetery, Cassadaga. Authorities later arrested the four youths.
Falconer police were investigating the breaking of a window and the theft of two bottles of cheap whiskey at the Falconer Liquor store, West Main Street, sometime early Saturday morning. The display window was discovered broken by one of the store employees when he opened up Saturday morning. The store was owned by Walter Fuller, who told police that the thief or thieves missed getting a much better grade of liquor by breaking the wrong window. The other display window contained a higher priced variety. Police were of the opinion that the act was one of "a pair of booze fighters."
50 Years Ago
In 1963, it was a poor pun – but one might say "it's snow time for May." Especially when compared with May Day 1962 when residents basked in shirt sleeves, light summer dresses and a temperature of 80. Temperatures dropped to 26 degrees in Jamestown the previous night and were hovering near the 30-degree mark this day. On the same day in 1962 a warming sun moved the mercury up to 82 degrees and the overnight low was 57. This year, snow and rain accounted for precipitation totaling .023 inch in Jamestown. County temperatures ranged between 25 and 30 degrees. Up to 2 inches of snow fell in some sections.
Jamestown, for the first time in 36 years, would select its city officials under the party system of elections as a result of the previous day's referendum. The referendum, marked by a light vote turnout, saw the so-called nonpartisan system rejected, giving the party system advocates a victory margin of 787. The proposition was carried in all of the voting districts except the fourth and fifth districts of the Fifth Ward where it lost out by slender margins. The nonpartisan system had been in effect here since a 1923 city charter change. Under the nonpartisan system, candidates put themselves on the ballot by petitions and formed parties which often cut across party lines. It was not uncommon to have Republicans and Democrats running on the same ticket.

Awesome stay
The staff was phenomenal. From the minute we entered the hotel, every little need or request was anticipated and attended to promptly. The hotel itself is beautiful and charming. The spa fitness room and pool were meticulous and enjoyable. The location was great, within walking distance to everything.
This is an older boutique hotel we've visited 3 times now. We plan to return again very soon.

text: CASE NUMBER: 44 CASE MNEMONIC: MALAY CASE NAME: Malaysian Raw Wood Export Ban A. IDENTIFICATION 1. The Issue Forestry is one of Malaysia's most rapidly growing economic sectors. Malaysia is the largest exporter of tropical wood in the world, accounting for 70 percent of the world's supply of raw-logs. Sabah and Sarawak, the two Malaysian states on the island of Borneo, occupy some of the oldest and the most diverse rain forest in the world. This forest provides most of Malaysia's exports of tropical logs. The increase in large-scale exploitation of Sarawak's rain forest was largely due to the entry of Japanese buyers. A 1990 report by the Yokohama-based International Timber Trade Organization (ITTO) predicted that the majority of Sarawak's forests would be gone by 1995 and therefore would be a major wood importer by 2001. Consequently, the Malaysian Federal Government will cut log exports drastically in 1995 and convert the demand to sawn wood products. 2. Description From 1962 onwards, logging operations in Malaysia steadily increased, largely due to the entry of Japanese buyers. Although more than half of the rain forests on earth have disappeared in the last fifty years, logging has hit Sarawak so rapidly and with such drastic consequences that many environmentalists consider it to be an urgent problem. Since many countries in south east Asia such as Indonesia and Thailand reacted to the Japanese logging by enacting restrictions. Malaysia and, in particular, Sarawak proved accommodating hosts for the Japanese importers. Despite several measures taken by the Malaysian Federal Government, such as the intention to totally cut the exports of logs from Sarawak by 1995, the Sarawak and Sabah state governments maintain a high level of autonomy in their logging policy (as in the oil industry). The constitution of Malaysia grants the legislative and executive authority over resources to the states. The role of the federal government is mainly confined to research and development, maintenance of experimental forest industries development and technical assistance to the states. The aim of the federal government is to increase exports of sawn wood instead of raw logs, to generate increased profit and to reduce the need to export raw logs. This will be difficult to achieve because of resistance by the Sarawak and Sabah state governments. The two eastern states fear that foreign investment in processing industries and financial compensation from Kuala Lumpur may not be enough to cover a decline in log-export revenues. Moreover, the two states enjoy a certain level of independence, both financially and politically, from the federal government. (This is also true in other federal republics such as Germany, Canada, and the United States. See some of their case studies.) In addition to the fear that financial compensation from Kuala Lumpur may not be enough to cover a decline in log export revenues, politicians and the wealthy timber merchants of Sarawak do not wish to lose revenues and benefits. A complex and uneasy alliance between two groups has been mainly responsible for the huge amounts of deforestation which Malaysia has suffered over the last several decades. The first group consists of Chinese business interests. The second is the state bureaucracy, mostly Malay. Most of the concessionaires are Sabah and Sarawak politicans who receive substantial "fees" for logging contracts (there is speculation that $20 million is needed to gain a single contract is not unusual). These concession holders are given little reason to care whether or not productivity is maintained for future harvests. In December, 1992, the federal government imposed a temporary freeze on raw-log exports from Sabah. At the time, the opposition United Sabah Party that controls the state government cried foul. Officials in the Sabah government, which derives more than half its annual revenue (Malaysian Ringgits of 1.3 billion or $507 million) from timber- export royalties, suspected that the federal government was trying to undermine the state's finances because of political differences. Another major source of Sabah and Sarawak's high rate logging is the voracious Japanese appetite for tropical hardwood which has turned Sabah and Sarawak into something resembling a Japanese plantation. In 1990, Japanese imports of Sarawak's logs jumped by 20 percent and represented 53 percent of Japan's total tropical-log import volume. The Japanese, the leading importers of raw-logs, use the wood mainly in the construction industries. Over 75 percent of the tropical hardwood coming into Japan ends up as plywood, primarily as disposable forms for molding concrete. Large Japanese trading companies are involved in all stages of exploitation, as partners and financiers of logging concessionaires, and as importers and processors. Why would Japan use this wood for such a lowly purpose as construction's plywood that quickly winds up on the scrap heap? The answer is "price". In defiance of logic, it costs less to cut down a tree in Sarawak and process it into plywood than to make plywood from an inferior softwood tree growing in Japan. Part of the explanations stem from the scarcity of Japanese forest and labor. European countries also import Malay hardwood, but these operations are being curtailed (see DUTCHWD case). Apart from the destruction of a valuable natural resource and the extinction of countless plants and animal species, the high rate logging in the two Malaysian states has led to negative impacts on many native people. Most adversely affected are the 10,000 Penan people who live in the forest. The Penan are nomads or semi-nomads and have been in the forefront of an immense battle to defend the forest. They have set up barricades on the roads and the trails that lead into the forest. With the state government's opposition, their action has not managed to stop logging in any significant way. However, it has made the world aware of the human as well as ecological problem. In addition to the internal problems mentioned above, another issue lies in the international economic system; the push for free trade in the GATT. The Malaysian federal government contends that in order to save the rain forests, strong regulation is required. This is in juxtaposition to trends in trade where barriers are being lowered. The two trends, between free trade and environmental protection, are contradictory. 3.

Trade Product Identification: WOOD Malaysia exported $1.7 billion of wood products in 1989 and timber was Malaysia's largest export to Japan, accounting for 33.6 percent of Japan's total wood exports in 1990 (see AUSTRIA case). 16. Economic Data 1. The Malaysian log export ban will result in an estimated loss of revenue of approximately $400 million. 2. Japan is the two Malaysian states' biggest importer, accounting for over 60 percent of their log exports. 3. In the first eight months of 1990, the drop in log exports from Malaysia enlarged the nation's trade deficit with Japan, which totaled $1.6 billion. 4. At the end of March 1989, Japan's investment in wood and pulp industries in Asia amounted to $247 million or 2 percent of Japan's total manufacturing investment in the region. 5. In 1990, Sabah and Sarawak supplied 90 percent of Japan's tropical timber and 35 percent of Japan's total log imports. 6. Japan's investment in the wood related industries in Malaysia accounts for less than 5 percent of Japan's total investment in the country. 7. Japan's import of tropical timber has remained steady at 11-13 million cubic meters in recent years and the government predicted that national demand would reach 100 million cubic meters by 1994. 17. Impact of Measure on Trade Competitiveness: BAN 18. Industry Sector: WOOD 19. Exporter and Importer: MALAYsia and JAPAN E. ENVIRONMENT Filters 20. Environmental Problem Type: DEFORestation This is primarily a problem of deforestation but other problems are also evident. The inefficient logging practices and the careless use of equipment leads to the erosion of the soil and the pollution of the river system. Logging also contributes to global warming because deforestation accounts for between 7 percent and 31 percent of global CO2 emissions which in turn prohibits the escape of infrared radiation, heating the planet. 21. Name, Type, and Diversity of Species Name: Tropical Hardwoods Type: Plant/Angiospermae/Dicots Diversity: 4,890 higher plants per 10,000 km/s (Malaysia) 22. Resource Impact and Effect: HIGH and SCALE 23. Urgency and Lifetime: LONG and 100s of years In 1993, only 20 percent of Sabah and Sarawak's virgin forest remained. If the logging continues, both states will be logged out by the year 1995 and will need to become log importers. 24. Substitutes: RECYCling and LIKE products VI. OTHER Factors 25. Culture: YES The Penan are a forest people and the forest contains many important cultural attributes for them. 26. Trans-Border: NO This is really a problem on the entire island of Borneo. 27. Rights: YES The Penan people have protested logging for human rights reasons -- losing the valuable forest resources with little or no compensation. 28.

The challenge with owning a big yacht is time. With today's fast-paced, over-scheduled lifestyles, sailing off into the sunset for a week, or a month, is usually a nonstarter. Which is why luxury day sailers that are easy to handle, fun to sail and can have you out on the water in minutes are soaring in popularity. Here are seven of our very favorites.
Brenta B42
La Dolce Vita
Conjure up the image of a waterborne Ferrari—all sleek, seductive style, lots of high-tech carbon fiber, exquisite leather and a half-million-dollar price tag. That's the stunning Brenta B42 day sailer.
Created by longtime yachties Luca Brenta and Lorenzo Argento, co-founders of the Fano, Italy-based Luca Brenta Yacht Design, the B42 is one of a fleet of exquisite, custom-built day sailers, ranging from 30 to 60 feet.
The beauty of the 42 is its sheer simplicity. Designed to be piloted with ease by one person, all controls are by push button. Want to raise the big mainsail? Press a knob and an electric Harken winch unfurls it from the carbon fiber boom. Want to trim the self-tacking jib? Big, electrically powered hydraulic rams do the heavy moving, again, at the touch of a button.
Brenta's objective with the 42 was simply to minimize the time it takes to go sailing, so an owner can use the boat without a big crew. Or any crew. It also makes it a joy to take out inexperienced family or friends who might be intimidated by a cockpit full of linguine-like lines.
As you'd expect, the B42 is a masterpiece of cool Italian design and the latest high-tech construction. The hull and mast are made of light yet super-strong carbon fiber; the keel is a narrow fin with a three-ton torpedo bulb at the base for speed and stability. Draft is 5 feet, 9 inches, making it perfect for shallow Florida waters.
Down below, there's a double berth in the pointy end and two single settee berths, making it perfect for a weekend away for a family or two couples. And only an Italian boat would have twin hanging wardrobes made of leather.
- Length: 41'11"
- Beam: 10'2"
- Draft: 5'9"
- Displacement: 9,350 lbs.
- Sail area: 1,076 sq. ft.
- Power: 27-hp Volvo Saildrive
- Price: From $575,000 (Bruce Tait & Associates, Sag Harbor, New York; taityachts.com; b-yachts.com)
Bruckmann 42 Daysailer
O Canada
Mississauga, Ontario, seems an unlikely location for arguably the Great White North's leading boat builder, but it's home to the skilled craftsmen of Bruckmann Yachts. One of their most coveted creations is this breathtaking 42-foot day sailer.
Founder Erich Bruckmann was one of the original partners at legendary C&C Yachts in the late 1960s, when the industry was just switching from wood to a new-fangled material called glass fiber. He set up Bruckmann Yachts in the late 1980s with son Mark, who now runs the show.
Their 42 was a latecomer to the day sailer market but made an impact by offering a classically styled, easy-sailing sloop with old-school long overhangs and a focus on quality and craftsmanship. The design came from the drawing board of Zurn Yacht Design in Marblehead, Massachusetts.
One of its big appeals is the full six feet of standing headroom in its well laid out cabin. So many rivals sacrifice space to preserve purity of line. Tell that to the guy who cracks his head on the ceiling! There's room for four adults to snooze in comfort after a glorious afternoon sail, with a small, though well stocked, galley to rustle up dinner later on.
The emphasis here is on laid-back, no-surprises sailing, courtesy of its generous 8,000-pound keel—almost half the total weight of the yacht—and easy-to-handle rig. Its deep, protected cockpit adds to the feeling of security and safety, making it perfect when young sailors are aboard.
- Length: 42'4"
- Beam: 11'
- Draft: 4'9"
- Displacement: 17,500 lbs.
- Sail area: 898 sq. ft.
- Power: 30-hp Yanmar diesel with Saildrive
- Price: From $648,000 (bruckmannyachts.com)

Comments about Educational Insights See and Stamp™ Jumbo Lowercase Alphabet Transparent Stamps:
These stamps not only come in a nice plastic case but they are so perfect for little hands. My 5 year old thought it was the coolest thing ever that he was able to stamp out his name. The stamps are pretty durable and they have slots inside (they are open) to hold onto to stamp. They then fit nicely in the case which has the letters printed inside to easily put them away. My boys had a blast with these stamps and I actually plan on using them for different crafts and to make my own Thank You cards! I am also going to stamp the letters and have them practice tracing them. The set does not come with a stamp pad so keep that in mind. Overall though we are happy and will be using this set for many years to come!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Intel Corp. will release its code-named Lynnfield processors aimed at mainstream market on the 6th of September, according to documents seen by X-bit labs. However, the high-end versions of Lynnfield chip, which will be marketed under Intel Core i7 or i5 names, will easily rival existing Core i7 both in terms of performance and in terms of price.
The first Lynnfield chiips to be unveiled will be models Core i7-870 (4 cores, 8 threads, 8MB cache, 2.93GHz clock-speed), Core i7-860 (4 cores, 8 threads, 8MB cache, 2.80GHz clock-speed) and Core i5-750 (4 cores, 4 threads, 8MB cache, 2.66GHz clock-speed) that will cost $562, $284 and $196, respectively. At present Intel Core i7-950 (4 cores, 8 threads, 8MB cache, 3.06GHz clock-speed) is priced at $562 and on October 18, 2009, Intel plans to introduce Core i7-960 chip (4 cores, 8 threads, 8MB cache, 3.2GHz clock-speed) at that price-point.
Despite of the fact that Lynnfield chips are intended to be generally more affordable than existing code-named Bloomfield (Core i7 900-series) processors, initially the price of the novelties will be similar compared to the year-old high-end products. One of the advantages the new chips have over predecessors is lower thermal design power, 95W vs. 130W.
In Q1 2010 Intel will start to roll-out the first energy-efficient chips – with 82W TDP – based on Nehalem micro-architecture: the first two chips in the new family will be Core i7-860S (4 cores, 8 threads, 8MB cache, 2.53GHz clock-speed) and Core i7-750S (4 cores, 4 threads, 8MB cache, 2.40GHz clock-speed) that will cost $337 and $259, respectively, in business quantities.
Lynnfield quad-core processor for desktops will be made using 45nm process technology and will inherit micro-architectural and architectural features from currently available Intel Core i7/Nehalem microprocessors, but will have dual-channel memory controllers. The chips will be supported by Intel 5-series chipsets and will come in LGA 1156 form-factor.

With the demise of my own community's two most revered leaders, Sandusky and Joe Paterno, I have decided to continue to respect my elders, but to politely tell them, 'Out of my way.' They have had their time to lead. Time's up. I'm tired of waiting for them to live up to obligations.
Think of the world our parents' generation inherited. They inherited a country of boundless economic prosperity and the highest admiration overseas, produced by the hands of their mothers and fathers. They were safe. For most, they were endowed opportunities to succeed, to prosper, and build on their parents' work. For those of us in our 20s and early 30s, this is not the world we are inheriting.
—Thomas L. Day, from his powerful piece in The Washington Post, "Penn State, My Final Loss of Faith."
A participant in the Second Mile foundation as a teenager, a Catholic, an Iraq war veteran, and a Penn State alum, Mr. Day calls his parents' generation to task and lets his anger be known.
