Lock Haven Express (Newspaper) - June 12, 1890, Lock Haven, Pennsylvania oetitn. NINTH YEAR-NO. 88. LOCK HAVEN, FA.. THURSDAY. JUNE 12. 1890. PBICE-TWO CENTS EVENING EXPRESS KOSLOli HKOTHKKS---PUBLISHERS CURRENT COMMENT. TnK revenue officers of the Govommont have been very active of I�te in arresting amugglerB. Not a steamer arriveB from Europe that does not contain more or less smuggled goods, and these have latterly been seized in large quantities. One would suppose that tho McKin-Iey bill was framed with the deliberate purpose to rob consumers of foreign goodB, whereas it takes the duty off 44 artioles it reduces the revenne nearly $60,000,000: it transfers 18 artioles from the free list to the dutiable list, but the entire lot will pay not to exoeed $3,500,000. Major Fond in London on Monday signed a contract with Henry M. Stanley, for a course of lectures to be delivered in the United States. For the eutire course Mr. Stanley is to receive $50,000, being $2,000 for New York and other large citieB and (1,000 each for the smaller ones. The first lecture will be given at the New York' Metropolitan Opera House on November 11. IN THE SENATE AND HOUSE Work of the National Law Makers Washington Yesterday. at THE APPB0PBIATI0H BILL REPORTED The uk is a rumor that Secretary Blaine , has been slated for the Presidency of the proposed international bank of the Three Americans. It would be a high and lion orable position and would be a permanent office at a high salary. As it will be some time before the project matures, he might be very willing to step into Buch a pleasant place at the close of the Harrison adminis tration. Mr. Carnegie's munifioence was illustrated again on Monday when the pnblio library, wbich he presented to the oity of Edinburgh at a cost of $250,000 was for-merly opened. If the donation had been postponed until after his death, and made a portion of his will, it would might never have been carried into effect, and he would besides, have been deprived of the rare and exquisite enjoyment which the grand effects of his beneficence now present to him and every other observer. The Democratic and deputy Democratic newspapers are now declaring vociferously that-the enforcement of a federal eleo tion law in tho Southeast would throw that Eection into "turmoil," "derange and proBtrate industry" and raise Cain generally with Southeastern interests. What stuff! The only "industry" that will be "prostrated" or "deranged" by honest elections will be that of the shotgun gangs and the ballot box staffers, The one great need of the Southeast today is honest eleotions. The bill to prevent the adulteration of food products and drags, reported by Senator Paddock from the Senate Committee on Agriculture, combines all the valuable featnres of the several bills introduced* at various times previously. It prohibits the introduction into any State of any adulterated food or drugs under a heavy penalty. The definition of what �hall be considered adulteration is comprehensive, and carefully stated. It establishes a division in the Agricultural Department whose chief shall receive *,3,-000 a year, secure samples of foods and drugs sold in any otifer State or Territory than the one wherein they are manufactured, and have them analyzed. The object of the law is to supplement the pure food lavs of the several States. Seizure or a Steamer. Victobia, B. C, June 11,-The little steamer North Star has been seized by Customs Inspector Young on charges of violating the Canada Customs Act. Cap; tain Angel Effel and Fred Jones are own-era of the North Star. : The steamer, ic is alleged, has been for the past six months engaged in carrying Chinese from British Columbia into Washington. The program has been to run out of Victoria at night, land her contraband cargo at some quiet place on the American shore, and at once . Bboot hack into Canada waters. The Chinese smuggled out are disposed of two Mongolian contractors, who pay 120 to $25 apiece for them. The buyers have agents at band where-evei a landing is made, and the Chinese are secreted for two or three days and then shipped to Seattle, Portland, or California points. The North Star is also accused of bringing back America's goods and landing them along the coast near Victoria, and this caused her seizure. It is also stated that she neglected to clear at the Custom Houbb before departing on some of her nocturnal trips. The owners allege that they never brought any goods to Victoria, but it is considered improbable here that the Canadian officials would aid the United States officers. at Make. Provision for an Expenditure of 27,849,513-- Appropriation. - Kecoea-inended for Public Buildings-Leaiela-tlon In the Senate Concerning the ' Export of Cattle. Washington, June 11.-In the Senate to day Mr. Eustis and Mr. Turpie made speeches on the Silver bill. The bill to prohibit monoply in the transportation of cattle to foreign countries, was passed, Mr. Best agreeing to Hall's amendment protecting contraota already made in good faith. The Senate joint resolution was passed requesting the President to enter into negotiations with the British authorities for the purpose of securing the abrogation or modification of the regulation now enforced by them, requiring cattle imported into Great Britain from the United States to be killed within ten days after landing. The bill requiring the Secretary of Agriculture to make a caieful inspection of cattle intended for export to foreign countries, was also passed. Mr. Allison, from the Conference Committee on the pension appropriation bill, presented a report and stated that the only point of disagreement was the amendment adopted by the Senate increasing the number of pension agents from eighteen to twenty. A further conference was asked. wobk OF THE HOUSE. Mr. Morrill, of Kansas, presented in the House to-day, a conference report on the Dependent Pension bill. It was agreed to after considerable debate, yeas 145, nays 56. The bill grants a pension to soldiers and sailors who are incapacitated for the performance of labor now or hereafter, and also pensions widows, minor children and dependent parents! Mr. Stewart, of Vermont, presented � conference report on the Senate anti-Trust bill. Hesaid the effect of the report was not as bad been supposed to repeal the anti-Pooling Provision of the Inter-State Commerce law. The report went over until to-morrow. THE APl'ROPBIATIOrl BILL. Chairman Canon, from the Committee on Appropriations, to-day submitted to the House the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill. It recommends a total appropriation bill of $27,849,513, being $13,298,370 less than the regular and special estimates,and !,628,801 in excess of the appropriation carried by the last bill. The report states that this apparent excess is largely more than accounted for in the result of the increases necessarily made to properly conneot the public service or to meet expenditures which were not features of the last Sundry Civil act. Among the appropriations for public buildings are the following: Allegheny $65,000; Chester, $30,000; Soranton, $150,000; York, $25,000; Pittsburg, $249,-000. Among the nominations sent to the Senate to-day were the following postmasters in Pennsylvania: William R. Cole, Pottsvilla; Mrs. Selina Gibson,Free-port; Robert W. Corey, Milton. PAINTING IBS BROOKLYN BRSDOB. Several Hundred Hen to Work on Dlszy Belgbts. New Yokk, June 11.-Straddled across mammoth cables or swinging in the air, nearly 200 reet above the East river.seversl men are at work on the Brooklyn bridge giving it a ooat of white paint Twice its history the bridge has been newly painted from end to end, once shortly after its completion and a second time in 1887, It is a vast undertaking, and three years ago SO skilled house painters labored almost unceasingly for nearly two months before the 4000 feet of cables, and equal length of lateral cables and other iron work were covered with two heavy ooats of what is termed atmosphere-defying paint. This is a misnomer, however, for at frequent intervals, where the bands swing, the atmosphere has left its destructive marks and corrps ion has set in. The men parry a tool with whioh they scrape off the evidences of rust until the steel is olean and pore, and then they cover it with the patent paint especially prepared for suoh purpose. Next summer the bridge structure, Inoluding cables and the railroad, will receive a fresh ooat of white paint. Nearly 100 men will be employed for several weeks. Superintendent Martin denies the prevalent notion that this work is attended with unusual danger, and argues that all that is necessary is confidence and striot attention to the task before them. Only two persons have met with an accident out of the hundreds who have been engaged aa painters since the bridge was thrown open for public traffic. CUPID'S' VIGOROUS DART.

Yon can hear her banjo tnmming in tbe old familiar way. From her sea blown hair so curly to her dainty JUUe feet She's Intensely glrly-glrly, and she's Jnst Too Sweet! Bui beware of all her graces and her fete-bine little wayij Though ber net of filmy lace Is, yet it's quite a tangled maze. Once ber eyes so brown and mellow bring you to her slippered feet, You will find some other fellow thinks she's Jnst Too Sweet! You can easily fill tbe public eye if you only have tbe dust. If a man conld sse himself as others see bim be would pull down the blinds. In connection with Time and Tide, the elevator boy comes in for some recognition. There is a current superstition that lightning is like a school boy and will dodge a rod. Every man has a shew in life, but few of them find it a oirous. The vain man never can see any excuse for vanity in the men he knows. Avoid whisky and water, my son, said a fond father. "It is a delusion and a snare." I hear that your picnic was a swell affair.." "It was. We all got stung by hornet!. If words always meant what they said, articles would be deer when trade is stagnant. Strange to say very few fans are pawned although it Is very easy to "raise the wind With them. In the summer the sales of shoes are doubled as compared with the winter trade. June has five Mondays-rather rough on tbe washwoman. One good way to lessen the risk of excessive ice-water indulgences is to have only a small glass at the cooler. A wineglass is recommended. Census enumerator to young lady in the door: "Did you say the world is your home?" "Yes, sir; I am the daughter of a Methodist minister." At a wedding-dinner tbe other day the panels and vases of ont flowers on the table were illuminated with tiny eleotrio lights of many hues. Black ioe cream is a new fad. It is colored by addition of charcoal and the juice of Turkish prunes. A new ice cream design is accord eon plaited down the aides. White vests make a harvest for tbe washwoman. Furniture polish freshly applied is as good as fly psper. What will follow "Annie Rooney" as tbe national song? Lime juice snd iced water mixed make a timely refresher. The sun has practically no weight; it is so light don't you know. There's all the difference in the world between in need and a needy friend. An eye glass differs from a glass eye In that one is supposed to be seen through and the other is not. A man's will, properly attested, is strong in law, but a woman's "I won't" never backs down anywhere. The saying that pride goes before a fall may be reversed In the case of a man who falls heir to a fortune. "There's something about Annie I don't like," remarked Charle, when be saw Harry's arm around ber waist. Like the average man, the crab deteriorates In quality whan it becomes hardened.

Young msn (candidly): "One heart too many; it's a marriage lor money." Inconsistency between words and actions Is generally fatal to tbe accomplishment of good. THE MODERN BANDITS WOBK How They Held Up and Bobbed the Texas Pacific Train. THE AMOUNT 8T0LEN HOT KNOWN Said to Be From Two Hundred to Ten Thousand Dollars-An Obstruction Placed on the Track, and na Express Messenger Instantly Killed -Capture of Northern Pacific Bobber. St. Lotus, Jnne 11.-Advices from the scene of the Texas and Pacific train rob nery say tbe robbers secured about 110,-000 from the safe. As soon as Messenger Nesbitt discovered the intention of the men he fired two shots at the leader and was in the sot of firing a third when he re ceived a bullet in the right breast and fell' to the floor. A late special from Camdan says the robbers plaosd obstructions on the traok>nd that Nesbitt was instantly killed. Further advices from Texarkana say tbe robbers obtained probably less than 200 from the express safe. After they had gone through the oar the robbers marched the engineer, fireman and messenger abont 100 feet from the railroad track, seated them on a log, and told them to stay with their eyes shut for one hoar When the bandits bid gone a distance of about fifty yards they turned and' fired a volley at the men on the log. Tbe messenger was shot through the left band, and another bullet pierced his ear. Tbe robbers then disappeared. It required bnt a short time to notify officers here, who are now in pursuit of tbe ban dits. One party has been arrested, and is now in custody, bnt baa not yet been fully identified. Mondsy afternoon 110,000 was taken from the Southern Express Company's office and carried to the depot. This was sent North. It is supposed the robbers were on the lookout for this sum, but made a mistake, thinking the money was to go South. CAPTURE of one'op TUK men. Dickinson, N. D., Jane 11.-Intense excitement prevailed bose last evening when tbe news spread that Sheriff Hayes, of this county, had oaptured one of the participants in the robbery of the Northern Pacific train at New Salem last Sunday. The Sheriff and two other men arrived with the prisoner andflodged him in jail. In cross-sing Grand river, about eighty miles south of here, the robber's horse was injured, compelling him to stop in bis flight, and when the officers first discovered him yes-erdsy he made a desperate effort to escape, bnt after a race of several miles, and seeing that escape was impossible, he surrendered. He supposed bis time had come to die, and gave some valuable information, showing that the robbery of the train bad been deliberately planned. He gave his name as Charles E. Bailey. There were five men in the band, two of whom came from the west on the train whioh they assisted in robbing. The other three were In readi ness at the scene of the robbery with horses.and after the job was completed the three latter started sonth and separated when a few miles out, one going towards the Missouri river, one west, and the prisoner was making for the Blaok Hills. The two who came from the west remained on the train, and from what the prisoner says there Is no doubt that it was their intention to rob the passengers, bat for some reason this was abandoned. The prisoner offered the Sheriff sl.OOO to release him. Sheriff Hayes left again last night to attempt the capture of the bandit that started east. The prisoner claimed he was under obligation to assist tbe others, bat he is a desperate looking man and evidently a desperado. When oaptured he was supplied with a fifty pound sack of flonr and some bacon, and could have subsisted for two weeks on what provisions he had. The country sonth of here Is almost barren of settlement, and the Sheriff Udsseivlag of muoh oredit for his success. JIBED BIRDS AXD BOBBINS. Stronger aad Better. -In the game of nail to-morrow against Renovo Petrikin and Emory will likely be the battery and cannon ball Shaffer: at abort stop. There will also be several other changes for tbe better and the club will be ouch stronger than whan it played against Williamsport.

I am a new beekeeper in Virginia and loving every moment of it....to include learning that I am deathly allergic to bee stings...it took a small issue with anaphylaxis for me to get good equipment that I call bee armor.
I purchased a nuc from an awesome beekeeper in Earlysville, VA. He was kind enough to transfer it into my deep. I have done my inspections and find my bees doing a great job, lots of capped brood, honey and pollen, 2 weeks ago I added a medium super on top of my deep brood box because there was activity on 7 of my 8 frames. But in my last 2 inspections I haven't noticed the bees moving upwards. Should I transfer one frame of brood up into the upper super to encourage them to get busy upstairs? Or should I leave it alone? I fed my nuc for about 1 week but then stopped because our resources here in Virginia are plentiful and the frames are loaded with honey.
I am interested in what y'all think...Thank you for your responses.

Updating the Seattle/Sacramento/NBA saga
After what has been a little lull in the proceedings in the Seattle/Sacramento/NBA saga, activity is about to pick up.
I wrote this story for the Thursday paper laying out what to expect in the next month as this process nears its conclusion.
As you can read, a significant step is expected Thursday when the city of Sacramento is expected to unveil the financing plan for a new arena in that city.
The Sacramento Bee has more details on that aspect of the story.

The Fine Wine Department
"To some people, fine wine is defined by its price – bottles over £10, £20, £50 or more. For other people, a wine's potential for ageing contributes to its degree of 'fine-ness'. Other definitions depend on classic European origins or whether a wine gains in value on the secondary market. At Averys, we've given up arguing about this, settling on the all-encompassing definition that fine wine is 'wine worth talking about'." Matthew Hemming, Fine Wine Manager
Burgundy 2011 En Primeur
At the end of October 2012 I headed out to Burgundy to taste the 2011s with Emma, (Fine Wine Director), and Jennie, (Head Buyer). Since then we have had time to compare tasting notes, share our views on the vintage and select the wines for this offer. One thing we all agreed upon was what an attractive vintage this is – given the rather unusual conditions, one might say surprisingly so. The best wines - both white and red - are wonderfully lithe, fresh and pure. This is a vintage where you'll find delightful, charming wines you don't need to cellar for an eternity to enjoy.

For years nobody knew what to do with drab old Swanston Street. Then, when no one was looking, it fixed itself. Michelle Griffin reports.
It's noon as students pour out of the city's university buildings looking for lunch. RMIT fashion design students Winnie Ha, 22, and Vivian Pan, 21, are heading down Swanston Street looking for a little retail therapy in the new boutiques at the Queen Vic site. "I'm cutting down on shopping," says Ha and, then, exchanging glances with Pan, "well, I'm meant to."
Across the road, on the lawn outside the State Library, Chinese business students Minnie Xue, 22, and Jane Wang, 22, are debating where to eat. To them, Chinatown starts on Swanston Street, where there are 15 budget Asian eateries just between Little Lonsdale Street and Bourke Street, including Vietnamese pho (soup) houses, Indonesian nasi goreng vendors, Chinese noodle joints, Malaysian curry outlets and every kind of bubble tea.
That's not counting the Asian food halls in the arcades and lanes running off these three city blocks.
Ten years ago, if you'd predicted that Swanston
Street would become the CBD's liveliest eating
strip, people would have scoffed. Indeed, many
were scoffing at the believers who backed Melbourne
City Council's scheme to close the street to
traffic and turn it into a boulevard. RMIT's 30,000
students ate elsewhere — on Lygon Street, in the
old pubs, or even, when desperate, on campus.
"Swanston Street was the grottiest retail strip in the city," remembers Dimity Reed, who was a professor of urban design at RMIT, "all $2 shops and fast food and sex shops, lots of people shouting from doorways — nobody would have shopped in it. Now it's one of the busiest streets in the city, and it's pleasant."
It's been almost 20 years since Melbourne City Council first started planning ways to revitalise Swanston Street, and 10 since it became a semi-closed walk. At the start of the 1990s, the east side of the street was a mix of souvenir shops and empty spaces — the windblown City Square, the desolate, demolished Queen Victoria hospital site, the rundown State Library forecourt. Before Melbourne Central opened in 1991, the train station was crowned with a tiny concrete platform decorated with a plaque honouring the Queen's visit to Swanston Street in 1954.
Nobody imagined that the street would finally find its way as the city's South-East Asian student area. "We didn't plan for any particular flavour," says Melbourne City Council's director of city projects, Rob Adams, who has overseen the street's transformation since the mid-1980s.
"One of the great things about cities is their unpredictability — you cannot provide the control over the retail mix, nor would you want to."
They did want to at one point. In 1997, the council hired retail consultant David Jenkin, formerly the general manager of Melbourne Central, to recruit a few high-status shops to the still-shabby street. Jenkin says that while 15 fashionable shops were approached, only two decided to take a punt on Swanston Street — Nike and Levi's. Niketown, on the key Bourke-Swanston corner, certainly became a focal point for student activity in the city.
"I don't think anyone thought (Swanston Street) would become what it is today," says Jenkin. "Most people only think in the short term, not 10 years ahead. But then the whole cafe scene has changed in that time. We didn't have the all-day coffee culture, the juice bars — they're all recent."
Over the past two decades, the future of the city's central artery has been debated and deplored at every turn by politicians and planners, councillors and commentators, retailers and residents.
"The crazy plan to turn Swanston Street next year into a pedestrian mall traversed by trams is an idea lamentably out of time and out of place," columnist Claude Forell wrote in The Age in 1991.
"At best it is either 40 years too late or 20 years premature. The truth is that Swanston Street is still a tawdry tart of a thoroughfare with more than its fair share of shoddy buildings, grubby cafes, low-grade shops, junk-goods spruikers, failed cinemas and sex shops, and at night, drunks and drifters."
"Swanston Street has always been a controversial and emotional issue," says Lord Mayor John So. "I was a strong opponent (of the Walk) in 1991, and again in 1996. I thought it was a waste of money, of priorities." And now? "Now I say let them finish all this exciting new development before we look at Swanston Street again."
So sounds weary — and little wonder. Debates about the future of Swanston Street have been revived almost annually. The council spent $15 million in the early '90s creating Swanston Walk, and almost $200,000 on public relations consultants trying to persuade the city's retailers that it was a good thing. Everyone from the little tourist shops to big department stores like Myer opposed the development.
Councillors have resigned over the issue. Politicians have fought over it in State Parliament. In 1993 then-Premier Jeff Kennett wondered aloud if they should dig a tunnel under the street for all the trams, and turn the whole thing into a mall. Consultants proposed extending the walk all the way to Melbourne University in Carlton.
In the end, it wasn't the brand name shops that changed the street; it was the city's international student population boom. In 2002, an estimated 43,000 international students were living in greater metropolitan Melbourne, up from 15,000 in 1998.
One in four residents of the city of Melbourne is a full-time tertiary student, and the overwhelming majority of them (more than 80 per cent) are international students from Asian countries. Even those who don't live in the CBD study and party there.
These students know how to live, work and play in cities — they've come from vast metropolises that pack the population of Australia into the area of metropolitan Melbourne. They're accustomed to apartment living in 24-hour cities and they're not interested in commuting from the suburbs.
"Even my friends who study at Monash in Clayton want to live in the city," says arts student Clarinda Jayawardena, 22, who moved to Melbourne from Colombo, Sri Lanka, last year.
"Even if it's 50 minutes' travel to school, it's more convenient to live here."
Many of the students interviewed still regard Melbourne's CBD as a clean, quiet little town. "It's like a city, only quiet," says Jane Wang, from Guangzhou. "The fresh air is nice." Malaysian fashion students Winnie Ha and Vivian Pan would like "more life after five".
"It gets very predictable," says Pan. "The city's just a little square."
Accountancy student Andrew Lee and his friends spend their weekends at the casino — because it's open. "The city needs more nightlife," says Lee. "We're used to 24-hour cafes and stalls."
The international student economy is driving much of the development in the CBD now. There are 18 different student apartment complexes in the city — almost 2000 beds — not including another 2600 beds in university dormitories around Carlton and the city. Average rent in one of these places is $300 a week, and each international student is expected to spend another $9000 a year on goods and services on top of their education fees and accommodation expenses. So now we see the bubble tea emporiums, the Hello Kitty boutiques, the photo-sticker arcades. The China Bar restaurant chain has three outlets along Swanston Street now, including Rabutan, a slick two-storey Asian food hall, and Food in the City, a more touristy food hall on the Flinders Lane corner.
"The Asian strip will move more into Queen Vic than people realise," says Gus Braidotti, the manager at Cookie, the new Swanston Street Thai restaurant and bar named bar of the year in the latest Age Cheap Eats Guide. "Walking around there is like taking a trip to Hong Kong. These people may be students, but they are backed by serious dollars."
Accountant Jean Lee, 26, has seen the transformation of Swanston Street over the past eight years from her 10th floor apartment at UniLodge, opposite the State Library. Her Singapore-based family bought her the one-and-a-half bedroom flat off the plan when she started her undergraduate degree at Deakin, and now she's doing her masters in accounting at RMIT. She's seen many undergraduates go on a first-year spending spree when they arrive.
"The Malaysian and Indonesian students, they're quite well off," she says. "And for a lot of them, this is their first taste of freedom. I know Indonesian students here who have a $2000 allowance a month, on top of rent and utilities."
Would Swanston Street have revived anyway, even if the council had never extended the footpaths and planted the trees? Was the influx of international students all that the city really needed to wake up main street?
"Would the cafes have come anyway? I'm not sure they would," says Melbourne City Council's Rob Adams, the Walk's original visionary.
"They could have ended up in Brunswick Street or Elgin Street. It's been 20 years of conscious effort to develop the city. Everyone's looking for the single one-off hit to change the city immediately, like Bilbao's Guggenheim Museum, but that was a special case. Most cities change really slowly. We always knew it would take a decade.
"Swanston Street is still in the very early stage of development, but for the first time people are recognising the benefits of the work that has been done."

As part of its 75th anniversary celebrations, the Hamilton-based Gallagher Group has gifted a life-sized bronze statue of city namesake Captain John Fane Charles Hamilton.
The statue depicting Captain Hamilton in his naval officer's uniform stands in Civic Square.
At the end of the New Zealand Wars, the four regiments of the Waikato Militia settled as a peace-keeping force across the region and the Kirikiriroa settlement was named after Captain Hamilton, who was killed in the battle of Gate Pa.
Gallagher chief executive Sir William Gallagher unveiled the artwork by bronze artist Margriet Windhousen, well known in Hamilton for her Victoria St bronze, The Farming Family, earlier gifted to the city by Sir Robert Jones.
Sir William says the gift celebrates the group's 75 years of commitment to Hamilton by the Gallagher organisation.
"How apt a statue of Captain Hamilton should stand proudly in the city named after him."
MESH, a local art group, project managed the work.
For Hamilton Mayor Julie Hardaker, the 75th birthday marks a real milestone.
"For the past 75 years, the Gallagher Group has made a significant contribution to Hamilton in so many ways and I congratulate them on their anniversary.
"This gift recognises the city's history and on behalf of everyone, I thank the company for this generous gift."

Paris Through Pentax: A Love Story Through a Viewfinder2014-08-28 1 16 Share Tweet
The lovely city of Paris never looked so amazing through a viewfinder.
If Paris is the city made for lovers then this video is as romantic as it can get. Captured all through a viewfinder of a Pentax 67 medium format SLR camera, 'Paris Through Pentax' offers a quintessential view of the city and its people with a flavorful twist.
The romance and flair of the city was highlighted in a short but sweet video by Mathieu Maury and Antoine Pai, film enthusiasts and the creative minds behind advertising company *Maison Carnot*. The video frames the Parisian experience through a fresh, albeit an older form of technology.
'Paris Through Pentax' indeed offers an appetizing insider's view of the city with a classic photography tool as a garnish. Classy on its own, the Pentax 67 seen in the video provides a nostalgic contrast to the modern lives of Parisians. Whether it's a quick toast of beer at a local joint or a portrait of lovers kissing under the lovely glow of the afternoon sun, seeing life through a viewfinder of a classic medium format SLR is as timeless as can be.
One thing's for certain, every focus adjustment on the Pentax 67 will tug at the heartstrings of film photography enthusiasts with this short video from Maury and Pai.

Hi all,
Does anyone know where the heater blower fuse is on a 1999 BMW E39 523i Touring?
The manual says there are fuses in the glove box and the boot. I've checked in the glove box which has a card that says the heater blower is fuse 76, but there is no fuse 76 in the glove box or in the boot.
Any help would be much appreciated!

It's been just more than two years since YOUNG ADULTS released their noisy blitz-punk debut LP Black Hole. Since then, bassist Danny O'Neill (ex-Protokoll) joined the band and guitarist Chris Villon relocated to Northampton, but they remain one of Boston's most viciously sludgy live acts, and finally return with new material.
Quick shout to YOUNG ADULTS, who kick off their five-date mini-tour tonight at O'Brien's Pub in Allston. Feels like forever since the punk trio released debut record Black Hole off AMDISCS back in 2010, but now with a more stable lineup featuring former Protokoll bassist Daniel J. O'Neill, the Band O' Brothers Villon is ready to unleash some new tunege.

I'm 33 years old. I have no children. However I have recently lost 25 pounds and now weigh 118 pounds (I'm 5'4). I have PCOS and carry my wait around my stomach. Am I candidate for abdominal liposuction or is 33 too old for skin to bounce back?. I feel my skin is a little loose already but nothing too bad. I don't want a mini TT as I want to have children in future.
Am I candidate for abdominal liposuction or is 33 too old for skin to bounce back?
Doctor Answers 7
The key to liposuction is your skin elasticity. If the skin tone is good then liposuction which removes the fat will allow skin the shrink up. If the skin is loose liposuction simply makes it looser.

Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction and liposuction revision procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.

There could be yet another health benefit from taking aspirin. A new study shows taking low-dose aspirin every other day may lower a women's risk of colorectal cancer.
"Over a period of 18 years of follow up we found a reduction of 20 percent," said Dr. Nancy Cook of Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital looked at nearly 40,000 healthy women taking either low-dose 100 mg of aspirin or a placebo. They found women saw an even larger benefit 10 years after starting the drug. Scientists did not see any difference when it came to aspirin and other types of cancer.
Millions of adults in the U.S. take low-dose aspirin regularly to prevent cardiovascular problems. Researchers say this new study could influence future recommendations.
"Women could perhaps consider it if they are at high risk for colorectal cancer, if they have a history of polyps or if there is a history of colorectal cancer in their family, they may want to consider taking it for that reason," Cook said.
Aspirin prevents inflammation that's believed to promote the growth of cancer cells. But doctors caution there are risks. Women in the study had higher rates of stomach bleeding and ulcers.
While this study did not find aspirin helped with other cancers, previous studies have shown that it might reduce the risk of breast, prostate and lung cancer.

Helicopter helping replace power poles in St. Joe River Valley
A helicopter, similar to this one, will be used to assist in placing new power poles in the St. Joe River Valley
next week. This shot was taken in 2007 when a helicopter was used on the Washington and Idaho Palouse
to pull a new transmission line across a large span.
Post by
Debbie Simock
The poles being replaced next week were inspected
in the company's Wood Pole Replacement program.
Under the program, a percentage of Avista's over
274,000 service-area poles are evaluated each
year to help ensure reliability of the company's
electric system. In 2009, Avista spent over $8.2
million on the program. This image shows a crew
reinforcing a wood pole with steel shanks.
About 350 Avista customers in the St. Joe River Valley will experience power outages June 15 thru 17, from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. each day as Avista crews work to replace nine power poles in remote locations, requiring the use of a helicopter.
The outages will affect customers on St. Joe River Road (NFD50) from Scott's Logging at mile marker 14 to Avery, Idaho.
Over the past year, power poles in portions of the St. Maries area, including the St. Joe River Valley, have been inspected as part of Avista's on-going Wood Pole Replacement program. Under the program, a percentage of Avista's over 274,000 service-area poles are evaluated each year to help ensure reliability of the company's electric system. In 2009, Avista spent over $8.2 million on the program.
According to Matt Swan, Avista's local representative in St. Maries, pole repairs identified through the inspection having the least impact on St. Maries-area customers have been completed. The remaining work of replacing poles is now causing service interruptions.
"We apologize for the inconvenience this series of outages could create and appreciate the patience for our customers. We encourage those with special considerations to make alternative arrangements during this time frame," Swan said. "Our crews, with the assistance of a helicopter, will work as quickly and safely as possible to return everyone to service."

Power outages are bad, right? Not for this family
An Avista crew fixing
an outage in winter
Post by
Dan Kolbet
I saw this story getting passed around twitter today. Turns out a power outage for this particular family in the Mid-West, gave them a chance to slow down and reconnect (so to speak).
Check out the Chicago Tribune article,
"The power of a power outage."
Have you ever have an experience like this?

You can report a power outage on this website
Post by
Sarah Hilbert
We've recently added a new feature to the Avista Utilities website that allows you to report a power outage. Of course, you've always been able to call our 1-800-227-9187 customer service number to report an outage, but many people like quick web interactions and we're serving that need.
"Several years ago, when we were planning what to offer on the web, we looked at the E Source survey results info to determine what customers want on a site," said Systems Business Analyst Janna Leaf. "Customers clearly indicated to E Source that they want the ability to report an outage on the web. So it's always been our intention to offer the service to our customers, and I believe this will be a great option for our customers."
In today's age of technology, it simply makes sense to be able to report an outage on the web.
The new feature offers the same self service options as the current telephone outage reporting system. The
customer goes here
and reports the outage using an address, phone number or account number. The information provided must match an Avista customer with electric service. We've also placed safeguards on information to ensure privacy.
You also get the opportunity to provide detailed outage information, such descriptions of what you saw or heard such as "saw arcing wire" or "heard loud bang" to better assist dispatchers.
Another feature with reporting an outage includes the option of a call back request if there is a change in resolution time or when power is restored. You can also view maps of your area to see how many outages are around you.
No power, no access right?
We all know you can't use your desktop computer if your power is out. With today's wireless culture, the new outage reporting function serves the needs of customers who prefer instant online communication and are wireless. The person making the outage report could also be a third party reporting on behalf of the customer.
Reporting an outage on the web is a great option for customers with internet on a mobile phone or wireless laptops. The site may not work on all mobile browsers. In that case, the 1-800-227-9187 number is the best bet.
Another good example of reporting an outage online is when a child comes home after school and there is no power, they can call a parent who can report the outage from their computer or phone.
Avista strives to keep in step with the technology that is being used by our customers. Having the option to report an outage online is another step forward in the right direction.

Brief Deer Park, Clayton outage on Sept . 29 & 30
Avista crews work on a substation in Pullman last spring.
About 3,400 Avista customers in Deer Park and Clayton will briefly lose power on Tuesday, Sept. 29 and Wednesday, Sept. 30, between 4 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. Crews will be performing maintenance on the substation serving the area.
"We apologize for the inconvenience these two brief outages will cause. However, it is important that we create a safe environment in which crews can work," said Frank Binder, Avista's operations supervisor for Deer Park in a news release. "Maintenance on the substation will help ensure the reliability of the equipment serving our customers."
Like I've said before with planned outages – make sure your alarm has a battery or charge your cell phone the night before and set the alarm on that. No excuses for being late to work, right?
We do planned outages because there is some work that we're not able to perform on live electric lines or equipment. For the safety of our crews and the public, we shut off the juice for a period of time. We do our best to let people know about planned outages through flyers, notices in the newspaper, phone calls and even this blog and website – but it's easy to miss that stuff. If you know of a neighbor, friend or family member who might have missed these notices, do us and them a favor and give them a ring to double check.

Planned outages near Lake Roosevelt to improve reliability
As much as we dislike having planned power outages, with the number of infrastructure improvement projects we're working on for customers, some planned outages are necessary. They create a safe working environment for our crews. One such project will impact around 2,700 customers in the Lake Roosevelt area in Stevens and Ferry counties in about a week.
The outage will occur on consecutive Thursdays: Sept. 17, Sept. 24, Oct. 1 and Oct. 8 – and will last from 10 p.m. until 4 a.m.
View a map of the impacted area.
As we said last week in regards to a
planned outage in Coeur d'Alene
, it's time to check the batteries in your alarm clock or figure out how to set the alarm on your cell phone (my favorite choice). If your boss reads this blog, you'll have no excuse for showing up late to work on Friday morning. And trust me, you can't know if they read us or not!
Our Colville Operations Manager Marshall Law said in a news release today, "This upgrade will ensure that we're able to reliably meet the energy needs of our customers in this area for years to come."
So what does improved reliability mean? In this case new, taller steel poles are replacing existing wood poles along Addy-Gifford Road. So we're moving the exiting power lines to the new structures. With the added height of the lines, inclement weather and trees are less likely to cause outages. The new structures also mean the lines can carry additional power to meet the growing needs of our customers in Stevens and Ferry counties.
You may receive a flier from us about this outage, see a notice in the paper or even get a phone call.
Click here for a map
of the outage area.
Areas that will be impacted by the planned outages are:
• Stevens County – Cedonia, Daisy, Fruitland, Gifford, Hunters, Rice, Two River and West End. Also, the Summit Valley area west of the Addy Gifford Road and Swiss Valley Road intersection, including Addy Gifford Road, Addy Cedonia Road, Summit Valley Roads, Swiss Valley Road, Clark Lake Road, Egland Road, Gilson Road, Forsland Road, Grimm Road, Burgess Road, and other side roads in the Summit Valley area.
• Ferry County – Inchelium area from Nine Mile Creek north

Planned outage east of Lake CdA next week
I just got word that we're going to have a planned outage next Tuesday, Sept. 1, for some customers along Lake Coeur d'Alene. Our crews are working on improvements to our Ogara substation and they need to shut off the juice for about four hours.
Approximately 760 Avista customers on the east side of Lake Coeur d'Alene from Carling Bay south to Ogara Bay, including the City of Harrison and customers on Hells Gulch Road will be impacted by the outage. About 575 Kootenai Electric Cooperative members on the southeast side of Lake Coeur d'Alene and in the Harrison area will also be impacted. The outage will begin at 3:30 a.m. and is expected to last until about 7:30 a.m.
This event is a good chance to talk about infrastructure upgrades, improved reliability projects and meeting customer demand. We always use those buzz words when talking about rates and why we file requests for increases. This work shows where some of those words are put to action. Customer demand in the area has increased and work on the sub will allow for increased demand.
So, if you live in this area, you've got a couple days to find a battery-power alarm for that early morning wake-up call. Personally, I opt for the cell phone alarm. It's plenty loud and the phone holds a charge for a few days.
If you are impacted by this outage, drop us a line and let us know how it went.

Smart grid details: Spokane's smart circuits
Yesterday we announced that Avista has applied for federal funds under the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act for the first of two smart grid electric distribution projects.
Read yesterday's blog post here
. This means we're working to lay the groundwork for smart grid's technological advances in the future while making our electric distribution system more efficient and reliable today.
In the last post I promised to provide a few details about this first project. Here goes. We're calling the Spokane smart grid project, Smart Circuits. In a nutshell, the project would dramatically upgrade electric distribution lines, known as "feeders" in the Spokane area. To understand how this work qualifies as "smart grid," a little Electric Grid 101 is in order.
Let's consider efficiency first. When electricity is made at a dam or wind turbine, it doesn't go directly to your house. It twists and turns through transmission lines (big ones), into substations and then distribution lines (littler ones) and eventually to you. Electricity could travel hundreds of miles. During this marathon run, some of its energy is lost. This project would reduce losses – saving ratepayer dollars. It would also reduce carbon emissions by about 15,000 tons per year. This reduction is based on less electricity needing to be produced for the same electric demand.
Now let's think of reliability. For simplicity sake, assume that if a tree falls on the power line that feeds your neighborhood, everyone who gets power through that line, loses power. We send out a crew to fix it and your lights get turned back on. This might take a few hours, depending on your location and the severity of the damage to the line. Many people are impacted from one small incident on the line.
Now imagine if the power lines were smart enough to know where that tree fell and the system could isolate the issue, and leave most, if not all, of your neighborhood's power on. The system could do this in seconds. This would be a much better solution for everyone. By installing sensors, capacitors, automatic switches and replacing aging equipment like transformers, this scenario is possible.
Why it's really smart now
While there are many companies currently researching and developing new technologies that will allow energy users (you) to have more active participation with energy providers (us), through the grid – mass implementation is years out for sure. You can't just stick a new device in your house and expect to become part of the smart grid. Your utility needs to ensure the grid is equipped with technology and communication equipment to make it happen. Getting our grid ready today means we'll be ready when future smart grid interactions become reality.
We'll continue to update the blog about smart grid issues as news breaks, but if you have any questions in the meantime, submit a comment below.

You can track power outages online
Power outages happen. We don't want them to happen. Of course you don't either. The headline of this post is actually pretty silly – "track power outages." If your power is out, it's pretty easy to track, right? No lights.
Since October of last year we have posted every
power outage on our website
and updated the number of customers who are without power in near-real time.
When we first did this, I recall having some interesting conversations with customers and employees about how useful this tool would actually be with customers. It turns out that while your power is out; you're probably not browsing the web, for obvious reasons. Yet, cell phones work and many people call friends to check the status of an outage (hopefully after calling 1-800-227-9187) to report it to us. If you're at work during a storm or want to check on an outage for a loved one, it's pretty easy to
look for outages in your area from a list or map view
The media also uses this tool to watch for outages. When lightning strikes, heavy snows fall or especially if wind whips through in our service territory, the media looks for outages. During big storms outages often lead the local broadcasts or end up in the newspaper.
The tricky part in explaining outages is that currently our website lists "equipment failure" as the cause of nearly every outage. In some sense that is true. If a curious squirrel jumps on a transformer it may open a switch, like a breaker in your house, which turns off the power. If a car hits a utility pole, it might knock a power line down, temporarily cutting power to customers on the other end of the line. If wind snaps a tree branch in half and it goes crashing into the arm of a power pole, breaking an insulator, the power may go out.
In each of the instances above, the "equipment failed," but not because it was faulty or defective. It failed to keep working because an outside force made it stop working. We work to quickly and safely restore power, regardless of the cause.
So now you know that "equipment failure" doesn't usually happen on its own – something has to make it so.
Look at current power outages here.

Gwyneth Paltrow Cooks Chicken & Potatoes On GOOP
For her infamous lifestyle newsletter, GOOP, expatriate Gwyneth Paltrow posted a video of herself deboning a chicken to show how to make a "quick, homemade dinner" of chicken and roasted potatoes.
The actress, whose PBS food series with Mario Batali rarely showed her actually eating, and her chef co-star teased that Paltrow exercised for "three hours a day."
The meal itself actually looks quite simple and delicious and Paltrow kicked it off by saying, "I'm going to make what I call fast food–super easy!" and then demonstrated the recipe in a mere 7 minutes.
Somehow, I still doubt this will be enough to win over Anthony Bourdain.

Grant yesterday appeared to be handed a reprieve after a board meeting at Upton Park ended with him still in place.
Speculation has been rife that the Israeli is on the brink of the sack but he appears to have bought himself time to convince his employers he is the man to keep the club in the Barclays Premier League, and now Bridge has been added into the mix until the end of the season.
The future looked bleak for Grant following last week's 5-0 thrashing at Newcastle - which left the Hammers rooted to the foot of the table - but an FA Cup win over Barnsley and Tuesday night's spirited Carling Cup victory over Birmingham did his cause no harm.
And he retains the full support of his players, according to star midfielder Parker, who said: "We're definitely playing for our manager.
"If you believed everything that you hear about West Ham in the press then you'd be rather a stressed man."
Grant laughed off the latest rumours about his position on Tuesday night and Parker added: "He seems relaxed - that's his demeanour. He seems relaxed and chilled out, which I think echoes to the players as well.
"Spirit is high. I think as much as the gaffer is fighting, we're all fighting as well.
"We're all in the same corner, we're all trying to do our best for ourselves, the manager and the club.
"The manager has tons and tons of experience, so he's doing a good job."
Indeed, barring the result at St James' Park, Grant has overseen something of a revival at Upton Park in recent weeks, with that their only defeat in seven games in all competitions.
They have also won four of the remaining six to ensure they are still within touching distance of climbing out of the drop zone.
But Grant is nevertheless on very thin ice and failure to take anything out of the next two tough games against Arsenal and Everton could see him jettisoned before the second leg of the League Cup semi-final against Birmingham.
Parker said: "We are feeling positive. We've been on a run of good form if you take the Newcastle result out of it.
"Other than that, we have picked up some good results.
"We'll go into the Arsenal game confident - it's a London derby and hopefully we can pick up some more points."
Parker also had a part to play in Bridge's decision to return to London, with the former England defender telling whufc.com: "I know a few of the players from England and I know the physio.
"I spoke to Scotty Parker and a few people and they told me what a great club it is.
"That definitely helped me make the decision to come here.
"There is a lot of quality here and I know we can move up the table."

Thoma Sends Anchorwomen Into LEC Championship Game
RIC student Justina Thoma
Mansfield, Conn. – Junior first baseman Justina Thoma (Canterbury, Conn.) belted a three-run walk-off homer in the bottom of the eighth inning to eliminate third-seeded Western Connecticut, 5-2, and send sixth-seeded Rhode Island College into the 2014 Little East Conference Softball Tournament Championship Game for the second consecutive season.
The Anchorwomen (15-25) will face fifth-seeded Keene State in the Championship Game at noon. RIC will need to defeat the Owls, who are 3-0 at the tournament, twice in order to claim the league's title. Keene State swept a doubleheader from RIC during the regular season and downed the Anchorwomen, 5-2, yesterday afternoon.
During the regular season, the Anchorwomen split a doubleheader with the Colonials (31-11-1), winning, 7-3, and losing, 7-3, at the Dayna A. Bazar Softball Complex on April 17.
The Anchorwomen built a 2-0 advantage in the bottom of the second when Thoma was hit by a pitch and sophomore left fielder Abigail Francis (Worcester, Mass.) walked. With two down, sophomore catcher Tori Lussier (North Franklin, Conn.) doubled to right center to bring in the duo.
However, Western struck back in the top of the fifth when sophomore left fielder Maegan Rodriguez (East Haven, Conn.) walked with one down and advanced to second on a ground out. Junior third baseman Nina Wojtkiewicz (Griswold, Conn.) followed by tagging RIC senior pitcher Michelle Sylvestre (Warwick, R.I.) for a two-run homer to tie the game, 2-2.
In the sixth, WCSU sophomore catcher Erin Weber (Rocky Hill, Conn.) doubled and junior first baseman Juila Bocek (Southington, Conn.) reached on a bunt single to put runners on first and third with no outs. Sylvestre got out of the jam by getting senior designated player Kylee Ruther (Stamford, Conn.) to line into a double play that was started by RIC junior shortstop Katelyn Sykora (Waterford, Conn.). Sylvestre followed with a ground out to strand Weber at third and end the threat.
In the seventh, the Colonials put runners at first and second with two down, but once again Sylvestre induced a fielder's choice ground out to get out of the frame unscathed.
With one out in the final frame, RIC senior right fielder Kristina Gingell (Pascoag, RI) led off with a double and classmate center fielder Stacy Pokora (Wilton, Conn.) was intentionally walked, which set the stage for Thoma's heroics.
Thoma went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and three RBI in the game. Sylvestre earned the win (9-11), allowing two runs, on seven hits in a complete game effort.
Western sophomore reliever Alle Sabith (Meriden, Conn.) took the loss (16-8), allowing three runs on three hits in two innings of work.

Mar 22, 2013 - By Bob Moen, The Associated PressCHEYENNE -- The Hathaway Scholarship program to help eligible Wyoming students pay their college tuition is backed by a $500 million fund that has been growing faster than the amount of money being awarded to students, but lawmakers are being cautious in deciding whether to increase scholarship awards to keep pace with rising tuition.
"It's certainly not in trouble. It's doing just fine. But we want to be cautious moving forward that we're not going to decrease the corpus and overspend the account," said Sen. Chris Rothfuss, D-Laramie and a member of the Senate Education Committee.
The Legislature, which ended earlier this month, rejected a proposal that would have increased the scholarship awards. Instead, the Joint Education Interim Committee has been assigned with studying the scholarship program over the summer and fall. Issues the panel will look at include increasing the scholarship awards and reviewing eligibility requirements. In addition, a fiscal analysis of the scholarship fund will be done.
Rothfuss said the education committee will study whether the scholarship fund can remain financially sound into the future if the award is increased.
The Hathaway Scholarship is available to Wyoming residents who have attended colleges in the state since 2006. It offers four levels of scholarship awards. Freshmen students can receive up to $3,200 a year from the program, depending on their high school grades, test scores and high school curriculum. If they maintain good grades, they can keep receiving the scholarship through college.
The Legislature decided to create the scholarship fund in 2005 with an initial investment of about $400 million.
The fund has grown to $501 million even while paying out about $15 million a year to students, according to research by the state Legislative Service Office.

this complete exhaust system gives off a unique
DEEP throaty exhaust note. Do not wait any longer, be the
first to run Remus's all new complete exhaust system on your Porsche 997
does it Include?
Remus Works...
Remus Exhausts reduce engine heat and
backpressure and improve exhaust scavenging from the combustion chamber.
They also minimize the power robbing effects of the OEM system to
restore torque and horsepower to the engine.
Why is
Backpressure Bad?
Problem 1: Backpressure is a typical
feature of an exhaust system. The backpressure on the exhaust flow can
help to reduce sound, but at the same time, it limits engine power.
This power reduction comes from an inefficient burn in the
combustion chamber where spent exhaust gasses are backed-up into the
combustion chamber and contaminate the next burn cycle.
Problem 2: A second problem associated with backpressure
is heat build-up. This occurs in the OEM style chamber muffler.
Hot exhaust gasses are forced through louvers and into dead-end
chambers. The heat builds up in the muffler and then backs itself up
through the entire exhaust system to the exhaust manifold and engine.
This heat retention causes damage to the muffler as well as the
catalytic converter, the system tubing, the manifold and gaskets. Even
ignition wires can burn up due to an overheated, inefficient
exhaust system.
How do Remus
Exhausts Solve the Problems of Backpressure?
Eisenmann reduces the backpressure while maintaining a
rich powerful performance tone. Annoying exhaust
frequencies are dampened with a dense wall of acoustical absorbing
material. The straight-through design prevents excessive heat retention
allowing the entire system to run cooler and last longer.

This is the BEST Cinnamon tea I've ever had. It needs no additional sweetening and leaves that tingly feeling in your mouth that makes cinnamon so wonderful. It smells fabulous and tastes even better. I used to get the Keurig version of this tea but I like the tea bags far better. I can never get enough of this, especially in fall and winter.5
