Iceland Needs Krona Guarantees to Grant Bank Creditors Waivers
Creditors of Iceland's three largest failed banks will need to guarantee that debt accords won't pose a risk to the krona to be granted waivers from capital controls, the island's central bank governor said.
"It's clear that we'll never grant an exemption to the foreign exchange laws, if that exemption might lead to financial instability or have an adverse effect on the krona's exchange rate," Sedlabanki Governor Mar Gudmundsson said in a Jan. 11 telephone interview.
Policy makers, including Prime Minister Johanna Sigurdardottir, have said it will be hard to exempt the creditors from krona controls, which have trapped as much as $8 billion in assets from being sold by offshore investors, according to Arion bank hf estimates. Three lenders defaulted on $85 billion in 2008, causing the currency to plunge as much as 80 percent offshore and sending the island into the worst recession in six decades.
The winding-up committees of both Kaupthing Bank hf and Glitnir Bank hf, whose assets total about $13.6 billion, have both formally applied for exemptions to the island's capital controls that would enable them to settle with creditors. Landsbanki Islands hf intends to complete a similar accord in the next five to six years, according to the bank's spokesman, Pall Benediktsson.
Three Areas
The composition agreements pose a considerable risk to the north Atlantic island, while they also present an opportunity "if we play our cards right," said Gudmundsson. The bank requires guarantees in three specific areas, he said.
"Number one relates to the kronur redemptions" of the failed lenders "which will be handed to foreign parties," the governor said. "And number two are the shares in the new banks, which are listed in kronur, and future dividends. The third matter is foreign exchange claims the failed banks own against domestic parties, especially domestic parties which don't have any revenue stream in foreign exchange."
The nation, which completed a 33-month $4.6 billion International Monetary Fund economic program in August 2011, has been praised for its method of handling its crisis. The controls and Iceland's decision to allow its banks to renege on their obligations to bondholders underpinned a recovery, according to the IMF.
Krona Slide
Gross domestic product will expand 2.9 percent in 2013, the central bank estimates, after contracting 6.8 percent in 2009 and 4 percent the following year.
The bank will need to examine at what price and how assets are released out of the country and what kind of limits will be set on dividend payments, Gudmundsson said. It will also need to set new debt estimates for the country as a whole as well as the future balance of payments, he said.
The krona slid 6 percent last year in onshore trading, its second year of losses. It fell 0.4 percent to 171.08 per euro on Jan. 11, the weakest closing level since April 26, 2010. The currency traded at about 230 per euro offshore, according to Keldan.com, a website run by Reykjavik-based H.F. Securities hf.
The estates of the failed lenders are urging quicker action from the government and the central bank. The winding-up committee of Kaupthing, the largest of the failed banks, in November said it was forced to postpone a credit deal because of opposition from the central bank.
"These banks have been in winding-up proceedings for about four years," said Steinunn Gudbjartsdottir, the head of Glitnir's committee, in an interview earlier this month. "Half of the assets of Glitnir have now been sold and are held in cash. Undeniably, this money legally belongs to the creditors of Glitnir."
Kaupthing is also waiting for the central bank's response, Johannes Runar Johannsson, a member of Kaupthing's winding-up committee, said in a Jan. 4 interview.
According to Gudmundsson, the central bank has yet to receive all the information to make a decision.
"We're not even at the point in time where everything has been delivered to the central bank and the other parties are only waiting for our reply," said Gudmundsson. "We're not there yet, although we're nearing it."

City police this week arrested three men for allegedly firing weapons at the Two Kings Trailer Park on Sixth Avenue.
Deputy Chief Mark Kraus said Friday that 20-year-old Corey James Anderson, 23-year-old Emmanuel Joseph Robert and 22-year-old Daniel Ellsworth were arrested Wednesday, and all three face weapons charges.
"These subjects fired their weapons on three separate occasions over a span of two days," Kraus said in a news release. "Anderson intentionally fired his rifle into several trailers. One of the trailers was hit multiple times and was occupied by a family. A female in this trailer was struck in the head with one of Anderson's bullets.
"Detectives recovered nine firearms from the suspects, and all three have extensive criminal histories."
Anderson, of 1740 6th Ave. No. 35, was charged with negligent injuring, illegal use of weapons and dangerous instrumentalities and illegal carrying of weapons. His bond was set at $100,000.
Robert, of LaCompte, was charged with illegal use of weapons and dangerous instrumentalities. His bond was set at $25,000.
Ellsworth, of Alexandria, was charged with illegal use of weapons and dangerous instrumentalities. His bond was set at $25,000.

Kayak Building Part 13 – Cockpit Coaming and Seat InstallationComments (0)
This is part 13 of a multipart blog . . . Read Part One here, Part Two here, Part Three here, Part Four here, Part Five here, Part Six here, Part Seven here, Part Eight here, Part Nine here, Part Ten here, Part Eleven here, Part Twelve here.
Day 59: 8/8/12 – 2.75 hours
Now that there are three boats in action and a fourth one beginning, Dan wanted to highlight our projects and get the community excited about boating. He arranged for the local paper to check out the new life inside the old lockmaster's house on the river.
Sam Sawyer from the Marietta Times showed up at 6:00. We had all of the boat builders present: Dan, Gary, Dave and me. Sam interviewed all of us and published a great article in the local paper:Local woodworkers building their own kayaks. I asked Frank Byers – our well-known Woodcraft reporter, to stop by and film a bit. Here's a short video from that night!
Once all of the interviewing and videotaping was over, I finally got back to work. I was starting on the cockpit coaming. The upper and lower coaming were already prepared and ready to be cut and glued on the kayak. Tonight I will work on the lower coaming only, with Dan's help. The two pieces of the lower coaming still need to be cut to exactly fit over the cockpit.
First we took a lower coaming piece, lined it up with the inside edges and clamped it on one side of the cockpit.
The coaming had to be cut at the front and back of the cockpit. To make the precision cut, we used a straightedge to mark the edge to match the keel seam. Then we lined the straightedge to center line of the deck to mark the top of the coaming. We cut the coaming using one of Woodcraft's new Kakuri Japanese Hand Saws. We used the straightedge to guide the saw.
We removed that coaming and repeated the process with the other half of the lower coaming.
Next I lightly sanded around the cockpit where I would attach the coaming. Then, using a disposable glue brush, I painted a layer of thickened epoxy on the cockpit and on the coaming, aligned them, and clamped them into place. I used Bessey's Mighty Mini Clamps to hold down the coaming. These clamps turned out to be perfect for the job – they were easy to use and small enough to fit at least ten on each side of the cockpit. Dan also had small squares of Mylar and small pieces of wood already cut out to use with the clamps. He wanted to make sure the clamps didn't leave an impression on the coaming. I thought the small pieces of wood were Festool Dominos, but evidently, he had cut them out awhile ago.
At first Dan wasn't so sure about the clamps, he normally uses C-clamps. After that night though, he asked me about purchasing the whole box that I had brought to the shop. Thanks to our generous friends at Bessey, The Marietta Rowing and Cycling Club was the lucky recipient of a clamp donation for all boat building crews!
Day 60: 8/9/12 – 1.5 hours
Tonight it was time for the upper coaming. The process was very similar. First we clamped one side of the upper coaming to the lower coaming. We used a straightedge to measure from the center keel and the top of the deck. Since the upper coaming is much thinner than the lower coaming, we used a utility knife to trim. The directions suggest using the utility knife, but it took many passes to get the wood cut.
For the next cut, we went back to the saw. For the second half, we left the first half clamped on and used that to guide the cuts.
Day 61: 8/10/12 – 1.75 hours
Dan met me at the house at 5:00 and gave me instructions for the hip braces. The hip braces are placed vertically from the underside of the cockpit straight down to the bottom of the boat. They not only add support for the top/bottom of the boat, but the seat back is attached to them.
I previously woodburned in my hull identification number and fiberglassed the reinforcement plate material that is used for the hip braces. I placed this plate 9″ in front of the inside rear of the cockpit and marked the spot that met the underside of the cockpit. I then cut the wood to fit. I used the cut piece to make a duplicate for the other side.
After cutting the wood and the lesson, Dan was off and I was ready to get to work.
Dan originally suggested that I flip the boat on its side to filet one side at a time. He wanted me to lay the piece horizontally rather than fighting gravity and doing both sides in one night. I (unsuccessfully) tried to convince Dan we could use quick drying epoxy or super glue to tack them in place vertically and do both in one night. He definitely didn't want me to tack the piece in place with superglue, but said I could work on the boat vertically by filleting the bottom one night and flipping the boat upside down to fillet the inside of the top under the cockpit the next night. He mentioned that I could use thumbtacks with the fiberglass tape to hold the piece vertical and in place if necessary.
I sanded the area on the bottom inch of the plate and the bottom of the hull. Next I positioned the plate in place under the deck so that it was flush with the inside of the coaming. The bottom fell nicely into a seam in the hull. I mixed up a very thick batch of epoxy with wood flour and built up a ramp from the bottom of the hull to the wooden plate. I placed a piece of fiberglass tape and saturated it with clear epoxy. This was done on both sides of the bottom of the plate. Then I glassed a piece of fiberglass tape to the inside top edge to hold the plate in place under the cockpit.
I didn't think thumbtacks were necessary. Just then, Joe Tewkesbury, the crew coach from Marietta High School, stopped in. I knew Joe had experience with boat building, so I asked his opinion on the tacks and the ramps. He confirmed no tacks were needed and that my epoxy job looked good. I called it a night.
Day 62: 8/11/12 - .5 hours
Since I couldn't manage to make this a one day process, I was back tonight to finish the hip braces. I flipped the boat over, mixed up a very thick batch of epoxy and went back to building a ramp. This time the ramp was on the top of the plate, underneath the cockpit coaming.
At this point, that's all I could do until the hip braces cured, so I called it a night.
Day 63: 8/12/12 – 3 hours
Now that the hip braces were set, I could work on the rest of the seat. Dan approved my epoxy ramps and was especially happy to hear that his friend Joe stopped in that night and gave me the thumbs up.
First I drilled a 1/4″ hole in the hip brace 2 1/2″ below the cockpit coaming. I trimmed the excess fiberglass tape from the top of the hip brace and sanded down the rough spots. I also sanded the cockpit combing and coated it with a layer of epoxy before I left for the night. I was going out of town the next day, so Dan added a second coat of epoxy to the cockpit coaming for me on 8/13/12.
Time in this project so far: 125 hours
Next blog will hopefully wrap it up! Stay tuned for the end pour and deck rigging in:

Foam, thicker foam or Open Cell
Hi My current subwoofer in a sealed enclosure uses yellow foam (looks/ feels similar to foam used in beds) I need to put the driver in a smaller enclosure will changing the foam to a denser type of foam virtually increase the volume of the cabinet ? will open cell fibre do the same ?
Thicker foam will just be reflective and do little to increase the percieved volume of the box. You want something like Acoustafill. I find that a mixture of industrial felt, or opencell polyurathane foam, and acoustafill works best. However I will say, the magnitude of the effect is debated, so you may still not get the results you want.
Here's an easy test: if you compress the foam and it takes a while to recover, it's closed cell and unsuitable. If it pops right back, it's open cell and suitable. Look for a highish density (8pcf is a good number to shoot for), or even better, a foam loaded with filler.
(8pcf ~ 125kg/m3)
Closed cell won't absorb much water and open cell is a sponge.
Consider using basalt based insulation often referred to as rock wool. I think for adding virtual volume, this would be a good choice.
The test I like to use is to hold up a tweeter or midrange on the far side and try and listen through it. Rock wool seems to do an excellent job. The better it works at high frequencies, the better it will likely do at lower, IMHO.
At some point, it has no effect.
Rock Wool is making a comeback... i have only taken it out of old Dynacos, not used it. My suggestion for maximizing the aparent enclosure size is fibergalls insulation + an aperiodic enclosure.

Waterfalls and streams proved to be another popular genre in this month's theme, as shown by this striking image from Markos Berndt of Milwaukee, USA. This was another of my favourite shots this month. Markos has used a 30-second exposure to produce the smooth flowing effect of the falling water.
Our next picture is another long exposure shot, this time of 4.5 seconds, from designer Martin Smith of Sheffield, UK. He has managed to capture not just the falling water, but also the movement of the leaves caught in the swirling whirlpool below.
Chris Mole of West Sussex, UK, is one of our most prolific entrants, and a past winner of two previous months. This month he put his EOS 40D to good use to capture this colourful shot of Sheffield Park Garden.

Athletic Advantage: Muscle Strains
The sport of powerlifting can showcase the limits of what the human body is capable of. And when done correctly, is amazing to watch.
But when the body is pushed to it's limits, sometimes it pushes back.
Off all the sports that push the limits of the human body, powerlifting may be at the top. But with heavy lifting comes the possibility of injury and some of the most common injuries are muscle strains.
Jeremy Woodward, Athletic Trainer with United Regional said, "What actually happens with a muscle strain is the tissue or the muscle cells stretch and when they stretch too far they actually tear. The worse the injury the more tearing you have of more fibers."
He says of the cause of muscle strains, "A lot of times it's a sudden jerking movement or if you do something like an inadiqueate or inappropriate lifting technique, the muscle fibers get stretched beyond their elasticity and there is a tearing at the cellular level."
Which is why he says proper technique is so important.
"Proper technique lifting, be it at the workplace, in the gym or your athletic venue, proper technique is really the key."
And if you do feel that you have a muscle strain, he says,
"Always rest initially inside the first 48-72 hours, try to apply some ice and do some very light stretching, maybe some light activity. Don't think if you've had a significant muscle strain that you can return to play at 100 percent the next day, so there is a progression with the healing process."
And if you ever have a question about the severity of a weightlifting injury, always remember to check with your athletic trainer.

On Wednesday night, 4 off-duty nurses from Eastern Maine Medical Center treated a patient 10,000 feet in the air.
They were flying from the Dominican Republic to Philadelphia, when they heard a call for help.
That's when they sprang into action.
When the flight attendants aboard U.S. Airways 846 asked for help handling a medical emergency, they didn't realize who was on board.
One of those nurses, Jerusha Rogers, said, "As soon as we heard that, the three of us looked at each other and were like, go!"
A woman was having trouble breathing, possibly suffering symptoms of a blood clot.
"So the four of us that were closet to the back quickly got there and we found a passenger who was barely breathing on her own," said Sheila Toomey, a nurse from EMMC.
Using just a small medical kit on-board, they were able to start an IV. Finding a vein was no easy task during the fast and furious descent.
"We were about 10 minutes from landing, the runway was clear, and we were going to be making an emergent landing, which was very different. They don't slow down. "
The plane landed safely and the woman was transferred to local emergency care. Without their help, she may not have survived the flight.
Brenda Homested, a nurse manager, said, "I think this just shows that their commitment to their profession, not only is in these four walls, but also extends beyond that. They are very, very, committed nurses."

Ripoff Report
barberino Nissanroute five Wallingford, Connecticut USA
barberino Nissan Barberino Nissan is a scam in itself! that guy on the commercials is the biggest crook in the state and I only know this after sharing my experience with other car dealers.even they said barberino is known to scam people and do things illegal Wallingford Connecticut
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
After doing six months of research, I discovered that the entire dealthat barberino had me sign was llegal. I went there with my ex boyfriend at the time. He wanted to get a car but his credit wasn't good enough. They told me to put a car in my name for him but he would be the one driving it and making payments. I was completelyuncomfortable with this but they told me people do it all the time and that I would really be helping him out. So because I thought I was doing the right thing, I signed. Now mind you this was a second visit with them.the first time I went with him there I was supposed to be a cosigner, but they told me the obnly was the deal would be saved was if I signed it in my name. And they told me it was legal to do that, mike mitch and the guy who owns it, the young guy that's in all the commercials on tv. 24 hrs later my boyfriend at the time broke up with me and I got stuck with this car, I tried to bring it back and they said there was nothing they could do! I also found out they charged me a 13% interest rate! A month later when I tried trading it in elsewhere I found out that 1. They never told me the car was a rental car and that it had been in an accident! 2. They didn't tell me about 2500.00 hidden in my loan regarding gap insurance and warranty. When I found out about this, I again went there to try and resolve the issue. They told me to put in writing that I wanted the warranty and gap insurance removed. Six months later I try to trade this piece of crap car in elsewhere and the loan company told me they Never received notice from barberino about removing those costs. Then I call today and demand immediate action and they tell me they sent the check to a different company and they have no record of my current loan company! How ridiculous is this! They just "lost" my paperwork but somehow I have copies of everrything. So now I confide in another dealer and they told me barberino screwed me over royally and ripped me off on this car. They should havye given me a carfax report and told me it was in an accident but didn't . More imnportantly, they had me do a straw deal which is completely illegal!

Ocal Sports - Paul CallaghanWichita, Kansas USA
Ocal Sports - Paul Callaghan Worst Sports Handicapper Ever Wichita Kansas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
I am a light sports gambler, mostly to make the games a bit more entertaining. I started receiving emails from Paul Callaghan of Ocal sports, a self professed professional handicapper. After receiving a couple free picks from him, I decided to give him a try for $99.99 (1 week's worth of sports picks). The first day he went 2 wins, and 7 losses (difficult to do even if you are the worst sports gambler in the world). This first day was enough to warrant me asking for a refund right then and there, mostly because it was evident that he did not know what he was doing.....some of the picks had me scratching my head before kickoff. I was told no, and asked to stick with him and "I wouldn't be sorry." As it seemed I had no choice, and then got to see how amateur this guy really was.
The next two days I didn't even receive any picks because his amateur email system was down. I would sporatically receive boasting emails stating "3 and 0 last night!" Sadly, that "3 and 0" night that I mysteriously missed would be this guy's only winning day and it was all down hill from there. All in all, he ended up going 9 wins and 20 losses. Then, he acted like I was insane for requesting a refund from him. I guess I was supposed to be pleased with these great picks that he gave me??
I told him I was going to report him to ripoff report and warn others in forums but he didn't even care. That shows how serious this guy is about running a reputable business. If I look on his website he has all of these winners posted, but leaves out most of the losing games. Buyer beware.

The 2009 Art of Science competition highlights scientific images created during the course of research projects. Chemical engineering Assistant Professor Celeste Nelson's image, baby squid, took the top prize in the competition. Judges for the competition were President Shirley M.

A panel of distinguished judges has selected the best pieces of art to come out of the University's research labs. Now it's everyone else's turn. Winners of the 2009 Art of Science competition were announced at a gallery opening May 8 and an online voting site is letting others chose their favorites.
For several decades, archaeologists in Greece have been painstakingly attempting to reconstruct wall paintings that hold valuable clues to the ancient culture of Thera, an island civilization that was buried under volcanic ash more than 3,500 years ago. This Herculean task -- more than a century of further work at the current rate -- soon may get much easier, thanks to an automated system developed by a team of Princeton University computer scientists working in collaboration with archaeologists
Szymon Rusinkiewicz, David Dobkin, Tim Weyrich, and Benedict Brown explain "virtual archaeologist" software they invented to help streamline the painstaking process of reconstructed ancient wall paintings.
Five engineering faculty members were among ten Princeton University scientists who teamed up with local sculptors, architects and landscape architects to create the phenomenon known as Quark Park.

Ready to go to the next level with Rails? From examining the parts of Ruby that make this framework possible to deploying large Rails applications, Advanced Rails offers you an in-depth look at techniques for dealing with databases, security, performance, web services and much more.
Chapters in this book help you understand not only the tricks and techniques used within the Rails framework itself, but also how to make use of ideas borrowed from other programming paradigms. Advanced Rails pays particular attention to building applications that scale -- whether "scale" means handling more users, or working with a bigger and more complex database. You'll find plenty of examples and code samples that explain:
Brad Ediger is the CTO of Tasman Labs, a real-estate technologycompany. Together with his wife Kristen, a web designer, Brad ownsMadriska Media Group, a firm specializing in custom applicationdevelopment. When not programming, Brad enjoys playing variousmusical instruments and watching obscure films.
View Brad Ediger's full profile page.
The animal on the cover of Advanced Rails is a common, or Burchell's, zebra (Equus burchellii). Members of the horse family (equids), common zebras grow to a height of 45-55 inches at the shoulder and weigh 485-550 pounds. They have excellent hearing and eyesight (their night vision is comparable to that of cats or owls), and can run as fast as 35 miles per hour. Common zebras inhabit East African savannas, from treeless grasslands to open woodlands; tens of thousands of them can be found in migratory herds on the Serengeti plains. They are herbivores and feed mostly on grasses and occasionally leaves or stems. They graze for many hours each day; a zebra's teeth grow throughout its lifetime to counteract the wearing that occurs from such constant feeding. Zebras are social herd animals, and the social system of the common zebra is based on a "harem" of females led by a stallion. Stallions compete for fillies that have come into their first estrus, and the filly will stay permanently with the stallion that succeeds in mating with her. Foals are dark brown and white at birth, and can walk a mere 20 minutes after birth and run within an hour. This allows them to keep up with the rest of the herd as it searches for food and water. Family groups stay together within the larger group. Communication plays a key role in the herd as well; the zebras communicate with a variety of sounds, such as barking and snorting, and with facial expressions and ear position. They even greet each other with a "smile"--a bared-teeth grimace that discourages aggression. Shared grooming further reinforces the bonds between them; they nibble at one another to remove loose hair or to help scratch those hard-to-reach spots. Of course, the most prominent and recognizable feature of a zebra is its black and white stripes. The pattern of stripes on a zebra is as distinct as a human's fingerprints; in fact, scientists can identify individual zebras by comparing patterns, stripe widths, coloring, and scars. The stripes help serve as protection against predators in the wild such as leopards and lions; when the herd is grouped together, it is hard for the cats to discern a specific zebra to pursue. Interestingly, zebras are attracted to black and white stripes; even if the stripes are painted on a wall, a zebra will tend to migrate to them.

Comments about oreilly Advanced Rails:
This book brings up lots of interesting topics (metaprogramming, debugging rails, databases). It's pretty fast phased and it may not be as polished as you'd might expect from an O'reilly book but I still think this is a great book picking up.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This book is unbelievable.I never read something as cluttered, poorly written, useless as this book.It's complete gibberish. Don't buy it, instead write a book about Rails by yourself. I'm sure you'll end up with something far better than this "book".
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Date of Stay: December, 2006
New Management has done a lot of work here. No more drug problems, great place for the family! Nice quiet area for those who don't want to be around children. Beautiful, Wooded but yet cleared of hazards. We started temporary and decided to stay much longer! Background checks on every permanent resident which makes me very happy!
Date of Stay: October, 2006
Very scary place to stay. Every night it seems theres a bonfire of alcohol and drug buddies partying. I kept my doors locked and was afraid I wouldn't make it out of there!
Date of Stay: February, 2005
A little expensive for the width of the sites. Couldn't get my pull out out and still park my car next to it. Otherwise pretty good.

Where I stayed
The flight was pretty awful, delayed and long but we arrived at our hostel and got into our room by around 11am. It was hot and sunny so straight to copacabanna beach for sun, sand, sea, thongs and speeedo�s (not on us)! Went to possibly the best chicken restaurant of all time for dinner. Had an early night but up early sunday.....
After all can eat breakfast at the hostel, we rented out bikes an began a ride of epic preportions
First we had to move from out ouble room and into a dorm - not too bad, 8 bed�s inc. a guy from Louisianna teaching English, and English guy working in the hostel and two Norweigan lads. We booked onto a tour of the Fevela Rocinha, the largest in Rio. Mini-bus to the bottom of the hill then onto motorbike taxi, driven by manics, who, it seemed ha nothing to live for. up winding �roads�, taking blind corners on the wrong side while it seemed a convoy of digger trucks came speeding down in the opposite direction. not a great first ride for Lizzie!
Geeted by a small boy with a joint in his ear, and were read the rules by our guide - ��t�s not as dangerous as you think, but stay with me, don�t buy drugs when they are offered, and don�t take photos of the look-outs with guns�. Reassuering. Sure enough, after 200m there was a middle aged man - around 14 years old with a gun and walkie talkie working as a look-out (later told members of the drug gangs never live to 25!) carried on through the streets, pretty grimey but looking inside some, didnt look too bad
Loads of graffiti on the walls - the letters ADA written everywhere - amigos de amigos, the gang that controlled the area. Stopped at a bakery and had dougnuts, wasnt sure if this was a good idea, but bad things havent happened yet! Then we visited a playschool for kids 0-4 years that the money from the tours funded so that kids could be looked after while parents looked for/work.

You know what what is there really -- talk about. For an NBA team over the course of the summer and it really got me thinking about. How people get to where they get them like human I've known Jason for a very long time I don't we came in together the -- in 1991. Its majestic -- has this -- you know you've been friends with housing and like it's huge radio mogul on the cover radio and the answer is. Because he apparently knew. With the rest of us couldn't possibly know. That the Celtics would be ultra compelling during the opening weeks I don't know how he knew all this craziness is going to happen but somehow someway. He knew and now we've got our second edition Celtics -- group which by the way. That's really do much better job of getting to you and your calls but it really do we tried to -- a lot of bells and whistles that we -- We are wide -- because you have two hours of it's about opening -- -- -- -- -- my cookies right now on that than you. And you think I'm gonna continue this probably. I know I know everyone misses those so agrees it's so funny I haven't actually don't want those herself with Lehman about five years but it just sort of lives on -- People still come out feel like I love those things you do it started him why haven't done five years would you think I have well that's us that's awesome. Obviously this is. A week -- -- -- -- -- many more questions than we have answers we are in our next segment going to talk to -- -- rusty Yahoo! Sports who. -- -- -- -- Pretty much with everything going on in the NBA he's the man right now. He's he's got a first he has a lot of specific connections to this story as they pertain to Doc Rivers porting to the only person. You know he has sort of been out ahead of the curve on a lot of stuff me it's amazing things in this story about. Negotiating a deal that dockers and sells sterling in -- with people they too want to rock she's talking about doing. So get to Adrian and I promise you it's a lot more your calls. This week we are gonna do what we do every week is at the end of the show throughout the course the symbol gonna revisit. One of the great teams that we call new Big Three all right you guys gonna get to choose among your favorites you can go on Twitter you can. Text and text line is 37937. The phone number I gotta get used to doing this and for the play by play again hosted talk shows daddy's doing fundamentals to flee via phone number which is 617. 9317937617931797. And we're going to be asking a variety of questions to all of view and Adrian and pretty much everywhere you want to start by asking him to Max. Resolve questions we are left -- after another week in which. It was will he or won't he and every single day we had. The idea Doc Rivers and Kevin Garnett going to the clippers and -- they've been called off and really going into. When I thought max's yesterday the theater of the absurd when news conference schedule. For Danny Ainge Doc Rivers to address the media in Boston. And then bizarrely that got canceled -- postponed. Until Monday leading to even more speculation more rumors about what was going -- in my first take a lot and defer to you. Is that. Sitting back from afar it just seems like we all know about the history of the only clippers. And do they have some sort of NBA franchise mad cow disease that even when you talk today even when you engage with them somehow your franchise becomes affected and crazy and weird stuff starts happening. To yours well you play for the LA clippers you know full well the history of all the craziness that's gone on out there in the things that -- This while it is par for the course for the LA clippers for the Celtics this is an entirely different. -- here's the thing that I unbelievably we we we you and I -- have a chance before going any further. Obviously put enough -- -- -- that I've said that to me tablet war when I first time my thing is that. If you the clippers then and I and I was Donald Sterling was the older one I went out there. When I was traded. Back back in the day. My belief is he he's always been about making money and make him is his franchise make enough money. I don't see the I don't see how he could not make this deal. And and let me make sure -- put this in the right way. No offense and all to be there don't they grow very good coach but Doc Rivers is an upgrade. He would be in the comic guy that would go into LA especially with the lakers down. I'll camera helping the clippers right now for well knock them off that the Rome. Increased increased the value of your franchise. On top of that be able to entice Chris Paul is that a new contract. Bring Kevin Garnett Ian Wright talks about the young talent that the clippers have -- well yeah which young talent but young talent also loss in the first round so. I don't quite understand. Even from a clipper -- point. How this deal can be box -- him habitat for Tom -- says there is they have it comes back eventually. I would have to think it if people have some common sense that this deal somehow would be may. You just used the expression common sense in connection with Donald sterling and the clippers this is a guy who wants to go bare minimum it seems financially pretty much every week and so my. Thought here is. Is paying Doc Rivers in getting in -- go to paying him seven million dollars a year -- -- sterling really wants to do or does he wanna create the illusion. For Chris Paul that he did everything he could. To get that done but that. Either Doc Rivers Doc Rivers agent the Celtics but the compensation. Is the Donald Sterling in his mind is his best case scenario we will go to Chris ball saying hey we did everything we could it just they. And and and was had gone -- Chris Paul Chris Paul little they're okay well I expect here's my parting gift by I guess I'll I'll talk you guys later. There is there is a reason while Chris Paul wants this done. Chris Paul wants to desperately. Be in the NBA finals not watching would be in it. And what Doc Rivers and Kevin Garnett and dare I say maybe Paul here's coming into the mix. Wouldn't it seem like a great scenario for the clippers to comedian and balanced your team and not lose Blake Griffin. It to me again this doesn't make a lot of sense especially. If you talk about your first round draft choices. Dumb not being in lottery picks that I would -- it. So what essentially are you given up -- the archery Jordan. Very athletic. I complain to gain. You know we've seen him with the highlight film but again you're talking about -- in -- hall of Famer even -- that it if it's that the in the biz career. Steel -- maybe give me something their SA Yorker. -- in the same things -- for the Bruins a hall of Famer. This is -- scenario which I don't understand why the clippers don't believe -- district. Now well asked gates who was there ask you about that ultimately it would joins us in our next segment so. The bigger question at all here or are thinking the same thing everybody is sort of divided. Or get to the issue of -- what is driving Doc Rivers because it's the same thing that drives Chris Paul. Then it. You watch what just snap and what's not only the NBA finals on the wrong when he again Miami when he -- one of the greatest NBA finals ever going to see a game six. For the ages and the game seven obviously went down. -- wire captivated everybody's attention has this phenomenal TV rating was sort of an epic. And the moment. And it's that. Everybody wants to be a part of and it's what you have to do to get there and you get spoiled and whether your head coach or your player or all of US Celtics fans. It's amazing how quickly all of us and Max are probably in that category as well because. We yet to be courtside for game seven of the NBA finals three years ago when -- that level. You feel like you wanted every year you get -- but obviously only two out of thirty teams in behavior in this situation it's an awful lot to get there it's very easy to forget. What do you need to inherited ten years ago and now Aaron the copper was now. Light years from the NBA finals Celtics were quickly it all happen but. We know the clippers have this opportunity to get -- and I think you and I both in agreement they have to do whatever it takes to get -- -- they do this deal to have -- and Kevin Garnett. Try to work out well here's the question is more importantly is the parties to all of us. What is the best result here for the Celtics and the simple version. Whether or not this is an option and what Doc Rivers wants to do what was truly all of our folks here regarding a roller coaster. Yes the question is are you better off if you want the Celtics. With Doc Rivers finishing his contract being the face of the franchise going four to whatever is not like -- was coming year. But in the future when freeagent wanna come here wanna play here in -- continues the rebuilding read reshaping the world -- and by the way. For those views that are new to. -- -- Let's bring you went to the way we have been approaching this thing from the beginning while for a lot of people they looked at last year as the sixty year. All of these new Big Three -- as we started calling it. The reality is last year was the first year of whatever is next in next year's going to be -- -- and sort cable -- -- what is it the Celtics better off. Having Doc Rivers here and having that stability in this franchise with -- -- got going forward or with docs we're wondering. Is compensation. And -- of the clippers get the right get there are willing to give up for traffic in the hundred Jordan Kevin Garnett mean it's possible by the Celtics better off without that meaning this chance here to jump start. To what's next. While I think that that would probably be look at it would probably be your best chance of jump starting what was mix. Because if you stick around and Kevin Garnett plays some of the year and -- from a retired you -- that the department or yeah. If you make this deal and you get the -- to a you do have. A legitimate them or is Danny K Danny Ainge likes that he has pieces or chips to be able to move those around to make changes. Doc Rivers Doc Rivers have has given dot -- given -- any change another opportunity if he decides to leave war however this might work. To maybe pick up and other additional piece that he could use going forward. I just it is it is fascinating. In so many different ways it is but how it it plays out at the end of the day Israel and you know something's gonna happen. Sooner than later because. The thirtieth is coming up very soon where the Celtics have to make a decision right now about Paul Pierce's contract either the pay him sixteen million dollars. And guarantee that contract with -- or the -- of five million and say okay. Here's your -- via. So I don't know. I think the Celtics a somewhat under 88 timetable. Here. And us also remember about picking up a mother -- what you'd like to do with that. Yeah oh by the way the NBA draft. Is Thursday night. This is not now -- at this yeah about how has the sort of instability going on man how just how good is it but David Stern those -- -- and could job. To leave on the top like this. With the ratings being out the -- heavenly game like he'd be a series like he'd be a good thing I didn't like about this series John was the fact that. Both teams. Happen to like each other. It was too much mutual respect. I didn't like -- I heard -- Johnson faced on the relief but he talked about the six game that Santonio loss. Magic says that's on hurt them for a long time and they will think about it and then the way magic phrased it was even to me is that you have. Back in 1980 -- when we loss to the Celtics I still think about this topic like great. That's absolutely glory. But you know as well as anybody with magic with the great ones. You know for everything that Magic Johnson has accomplished. For LeBron was LeBron will always do over the two losses to the Celtics in no way in 2000 and and maybe just maybe were gonna relive some of that because we give you the choice. On Twitter and text line whether you wanna hear today we're gonna we have two possibility for you guys get the side of organ and showed -- which game it -- back. The seventh and deciding game some of the highlights of that. Extraordinary series against Chicago in 2009 that some people thought it was the greatest NBA playoff series ever played the most important but the greatest series in terms of the content of the games. Or -- -- sixth and deciding final game of the 2010 Eastern Conference semifinal series so with LeBron James his final game as a Cleveland Cavaliers in game that was played. In Boston but obviously we have just. Begun to tip the iceberg here because there are so many different elements an accident. Of this story and the possibility. That maybe one day maybe one day we're gonna look back at this whole thing in this could be. This brilliant -- of millions setup for the Celtics. Going back to the data -- this deal out 2011. Guys. When it's all said and done in by the way this notion that we are all assuming. Doc obviously has been ambivalent about his future and Boston and -- in the -- But one of the questions we will be asking all of you guys is good Doc Rivers again if -- felt like it could be -- coach of the Celtics again. Come next fall but it obviously of the contract for three more years to do it and would he be able to. Rebuild that bridge but the question when. It -- in combat and John before you go with that. Doc Rivers has been the smartest guy -- built -- exactly my good because when we never heard a word about that it -- hey I wanna go someplace. Ali does -- thing is -- and going portrait or want to go where. But. I'd love that great. Lucille Lucille Ball you know this is there would be -- right now because this is when her husband will come on and go. Those think somebody got a list and ado here though this is one of those scenarios again which is -- to be ultimately. Fascinating. When Doc Rivers has the sit in front of a microphone and talk about all of. And and personally it is just me speaking without any specific knowledge of yesterday. To meet that had to be an element of today I was shocked when there was originally scheduled to be a news conference because. When you schedule once because you have something to say and I think Danny -- both are very unhappy with the way. I hate generalized media because it's absurd some people are simply won't do their jobs diligently professionally and others don't. But obviously there's an undercurrent here people are always looking for riffs and strike. I think any -- both -- be very clear on the record that they are. They don't always agree on everything but they have great affection for each other personally and professionally and -- nothing to do it there -- particular. Partnership that is that these the issue here but I think they wanna say what they wanna say. But we scheduled a news conference you'll get the same 21 you have to answer the questions that are going to be asked in there and opera if you're not prepared to answer. The questions and obviously no one is at this spot ready to answer the questions that have to be answered in a news conference situation. Don this is what I really believe about all this job. Is a fact that. There had to be something prepared and something going forward yesterday. There had to be a deal that had to be close to be made -- about to be made if you -- -- twelve new stuff. Because -- Malcolm schedule a new conference to start the speculate you're not gonna do that. So that's what felt something had to be. In the mix almost done that they -- had to be some plays almost drive when somebody still. Wait a minute call on this week we are a few what things they. So the question is did the Celtics just in dealing with the clippers catch that. Matt how franchise disease that the clippers and for the short period of time. Suddenly they instead of -- clippers becoming the celtics' quest for one day -- seem like the Celtics have become the clippers east but this thing eventually is gonna be behind all of us and we world. Happily be able to talk about what is next for the Boston Celtics what is right now. And it's going to be put Levy story in the NBA now the finals are over is what is going to happen with the clippers but the Celtics. With Doc Rivers over these next few days if you go to rescue of Yahoo! Sports has been the man on the story's pretty much from the start. You -- the NBA finals and he will join us in our next segment there are celtics' summer cooler -- at Boston. On the Comerica Park in Detroit we're gonna take your calls a little bit later this hour at 6179317937617. 9317937. Because it's been a lot going on obviously on WEEI always so. A lot of the Celtics have hasn't really been able to break through this is your chance to -- on again off suggested. Try to all get our heads together and figure out what is best for the Celtics going for Celtics summer cooler goes forward next and W we yeah.

Could this be the much needed refresh of Firefox we've all been waiting for?
Mozilla Firefox director Mike Beltzner has announced the company's vision for version 4.0 and the highlights are where you'd expect them to be: a UI overhaul, greater speed and full compliance with CSS3 and greater support for HTML5.
The visual refresh is obviously key with Firefox widely criticised for looking dated because, well... it does. Tabs positioned above the URL bar - akin to Chrome - pinned, reduced size tabs (below - also like Chrome) and a reduction in pop-up windows in favour of discrete notification bubbles (bottom) are all planned. These are coupled with greater user control over cookies, form filling and geolocations. Meanwhile the recently rejigged add-ons may be allowed to automatically update in the background as Jetpack gathers momentum.
As for performance the big change will be a move to native 64bit support, a brand new rendering engine (JagerMonkey), start-up time optimisations, fully sandboxed tabs, Direct2D rendering, multi-touch support and full integration with Windows' Aero Peak. Meanwhile web developers will get improved tools and multimedia capabilities
Timeframes? A beta could be here as early as June with a release candidate in October and a final version pegged from anytime between then and the end of November.
A word of warning: Mozilla has slapped "Plans Might Change (please don't overreport)" notices all over its announcements so the usual fistfuls of NaCl are required. That said, if Mozilla can deliver on the majority of these it will take several important - and necessary - steps towards getting back into our good graces...
Update: Mozilla CEO John Lilly has stepped down to join Greylock Partners as a venture capitalist. Mozilla has yet to announce his replacement. How about Beltzner?

Ramadan, 9th month of the Islamic year, is a 29/30 days holy festival for Muslims all over the world. Its essential constituents are fasting from dawn till dusk, be in the best behavior and abstaining from all kind of social and personal evils, in return of which Muslims are bestowed upon with the blessings and eternal peace. By the end of this month, Muslims celebrate Eid-ul-fitr, which symbolizes joy and happiness, and is the perfect time to exchange gifts of love amongst each other.
Fasting is the third basic pillar of Islamic basis; it starts from dawn and ends with the sunset. In this month it's not all about starving but it means to be more oriented spiritually towards the Creator. Fasting has certain benefits besides spiritual purity and health improvement which are:
Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) said "those who recite one ayah if Quran during Ramadan will be awarded as recitation of complete Holly Quran in other days"
The importance of fasting has been emphasized several times in Quran as it says "Ramadan is a month whose beginning is mercy, whose middle is forgiveness and whose end is freedom from the fire."
After the last day of Ramadan, on the very first day of Shawal, Muslims celebrate Eid, where eating sweets, exchanging gifts and inviting others over meals is traditionally followed. Thus, this whole month is a time of celebration, felicity and complete devotion to the Almighty.

Broad Channel Bits
As we all approach the first year mark, the anniversary of the day Hurricane Sandy engulfed our town, I know the days before that event and all the days after are standing out clearly in all of our minds. On the day after, as I went out I remember thinking, 'This is a new page in our history. This is a whole new chapter.' Maybe someday we'll look back and see the night of October 29th, 2012 as one of those moments that the history of Broad Channel opened a whole new book.
Since there is so much in this week's edition of the Wave, we'll keep this column to 'what's happening that I need to know about' basics.
The Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department is hosting the annual Halloween Parade this Saturday, October 26th, at 1 p.m. It starts at East 17th Road Park and ends at the firehouse on Noel Road. There will be cupcakes, juices and goodie bags will be handed out to all. As the BC Civic said on Facebook, "Last year there was no Halloween due to Hurricane Sandy, so let's make it a GREAT one This Year!!!!!!!"
American Legion Halloween Party on Saturday, October 26th, 8 p.m. –midnight. $25 admission includes food, music plus two complimentary drinks. Prizes for best costumes. Call Karen at 347-306-4851 or Carol at 917-930-0546 to reserve table. Cash bar. No coolers please. All proceeds go to the Legion. The Legion hall is at 209 Cross Bay Boulevard.
On Sunday, October 27th at 7 p.m. there will be an Ecumenical Prayer Service to mark the Anniversary of Sandy at Christ Presbyterian Church by the Sea. All are invited.
Across the bridge, the Seaside Library at Beach 11th Street will be hosting a free community celebration to mark its reopening. That's 3-5 p.m. on Sunday, October 27th. The musical high point will be a performance by Breezy Grass, with BC's Steve Hawk on bass!
Mass Bishop Raymond Chappetto, Auxiliary Bishop of Brooklyn, will celebrate the 10 a.m. Mass at St. Camillus on Friday, November 1st — Holy Day of ALL SAINTS. All are welcome.
On Sunday, November 3rd there will be a Memorial Mass for all who died from the parish in the past two years. Fr. Ahlemeyer writes, "Because of the storm we did not have the Memorial Mass last year." All are welcome.
In case you missed it, on Sunday, October 27th, there's a free VIRTUS Child Safety Workshop at 1 p.m. in St. Camillus School. ALL CYO coaches and managers must attend a VIRTUS workshop. St. Camillus is at 185 Beach 99th Street. Questions? Call 718-634- 8229.
Don't forget to mark your calendars now for the VFW Penny Social on Saturday, November 16th, at the American Legion Hall. The Legion is opening its doors for their VFW neighbors and this special event. Those doors will open at 6 p.m. and calling starts at 7 p.m. $10 admission includes raffle tickets, coffee and cake. There's some pretty great prizes lined up. Call 646-344-2640 and reserve your table.
Proceeds will go to providing Thanksgiving dinner for the disabled veterans of the St. Albans home and also future events to support them.
While you're still working on the "Does anybody know what's happening with the Bayview lounge?" question, here's a new one.
Scott Battaglia asks, "Do you have any more information on the property on West Road and Noel Road that the Broad Channel Corporation used? Where exactly was it floated from and when was it originally built? When did they add the safe that is inside? Who were other notable tenants other than the BCC and the BCAC?"
Can you fill in some of the blanks? Let me know. E-mail workingstories@aol.- com. Feel free to send any BC news, updates, questions, too.
Finally, Broad Channel says good-bye to William 'Billy' Mundy Sr.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Mundy family.
A FDNY firefighter (ret), a Navy veteran (enlisting at age 17), the photos posted at his wake at Hillebrand's showed a life well and thoroughly lived. Certainly it was a life that added deeply to the fabric of Broad Channel. Billy Mundy has certainly left a legacy. He will be missed.
As we approach the first anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, I am wishing you and all around you all the best in the year ahead.
We have been through the storm. And we are still here. God bless us all.
Thanks, as always, for reading.

My kids are currently in love with rainbows! We have had so much fun lately making rainbow crafts and practicing colors with my two-year-old. This craft was a great way to work on fine motor skills, introduce new textures, and practice our colors. The kids were so proud of their rainbows and proudly displayed them to welcome spring!
Once the colors were sorted, we used tacky glue to add the different materials to our rainbows. This was a great way to work on those fine motor skills with my two- and three-year-olds. They worked really hard placing those tiny beads and felt pieces on their rainbows.

Well known Linda's Flowers now in new but familiar and capable hands
The landmark Linda's Flowers on the corner of California Ave. s.w. and s.w. Admiral Way is under new but still familiar management. Wendy Damoth, an employee for seven years, now owns the store that was run by its namesake Linda Harader for more than 20 years. Harader chose to retire.
Damoth has been interested in flowers since her days in college, and has been in the floral industry ever since (though at times she has worked in other retail businesses).
Born in Reno she moved to West Seattle eleven years ago. She genuinely loves this business.
"I love working with people, and working with my neighbors and the fact that I'm working in my own community," Damoth said.
She's been busy since she officially took over in January but wanted to keep her ownership quiet until she had a chance to make some subtle but she feels important changes. "We've had a lot of giftware in the store and I didn't want to just buy a lot of stuff, so I've been trying to see what my neighbors need. A lot of shops have gone out of business in this recession."
What do her customers say they want?
"The Alki Beach gift wear is a big request and things that are related to West Seattle in general. We've had numerous requests for postcards," she said. She sells Alki Beach Sweatshirts and hats and just placed a large order for more. They are one of the very few places in West Seattle to sell themed merchandise of this type.
Damoth and her associate florist Melody Smouse said because they are full service flower shop, they have the regular range of services including funerals, weddings, businesses who have fresh flowers as decor, birthdays, parties, and more. They deliver all over the local region, even as far away as Lynnwood or Issaquah on occasion but for greater distances they rely on being a member of Teleflora.
Smouse and Damoth agreed that their biggest seller is "bright mixed bouquets," even though everyone seems to have a different favorite flower.
Flowers, since they are persishable are sold by wholesalers who offer them for sale to florists very early in the morning. Damoth goes to several wholesalers but most frequently to one in Georgetown. "I love it," she said, " I love that sense of community with people in your industry."
Smouse said, "Wendy is very enthusiastic and she always has been, so a lot of people when they own a flower shop for a while, they forget about going down there early in the morning, but that's when you get the best stuff. The seasonal stuff and unusual stuff is available then."
Damoth has been busy "remerchandising the store" since people who walk by are often unaware of what's available inside. She also has a clever recycling program now in effect. Damoth was eager to mention her "Recycle vase
program" we've started. People can bring in their used vase and we will give them a $2 coupon for their next purchase. The coupon is good towards local orders and merchandise in the store. We know most people have too many vases just taking up space and would like to encourage them to recycle."
While the shop is just now getting a Facebook page going and does not yet have a Twitter account, you can of course find it online at www.lindasflowerandgifts.com or call them at 206-935-2587.
