Handbags, Meet Hummus: Barneys is New Kid on Brooklyn Block
On Friday morning, Barneys Co-Op cut the ribbon on a new store on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn. It's the latest sign that major retailers are taking interest in a borough they shunned for decades.
The glitzy shop will be rubbing shoulders with some small businesses that couldn't be more different.
Next door, there's a frame store, a Yemenite restaurant, and at the back of a barbershop, Abdul Karim runs an Arabic-English translation service. Karim admits he doesn't know the first thing about the glittering new temple to fashion just three doors down.
"We barely go to Macy's," he says with a laugh.
Karim doesn't expect much new business from Barneys shoppers, but he is concerned about the possible effect on his rent. He says rates have risen over the past decade, as the area has gentrified, drawing an Urban Outfitters and a Trader Joe's.
So far, none of the Middle Eastern shops on the block have moved out.
In fact, some merchants say they have benefitted from the traffic, including Sahadi's, a destination for wholesale dried apricots and Syrian string cheese since 1948. Cashier Nikki Diorio says contrary to expectations, the uptick in rental activity has been good for the store.
"When Trader Joe's opened it was good for the business. Everyone thought it was gonna be bad. But it's gonna bring in more people, and more people are gonna discover Sahadi's," Diorio says.
Realtors say commercial rents, now at $40-$50 per square foot, are bound to rise. But it's taken a long time for major retailers to take the borough seriously.
"A lot of times Manhattan retailers feel like they need shots and a passport to come to Brooklyn," says Tim King, of CPEX. "And they almost become surprised, like, 'Oh, gee, you have real stores there!' Well guess what: we have real people here!"
There are plans for an Aeropostale, an H&M and a combined Filene's Basement/Syms store in the nearby Fulton Mall area. Barneys says its new store will employ around 15 people.
Thousand dollar designer handbags may seem out of place on a block known for olives and hummus. But Barney's has one thing in common with many of its new neighbors: as the property of the government of Dubai, it too is an Arab-owned business.

Officials debate University Corners tax incentives
Published: Monday, November 18, 2013 at 11:52 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 18, 2013 at 11:52 p.m.
Gainesville's Community Redevelopment Agency staff and the developers behind University Corners have not seen eye to eye on tax incentives.
They will now have more time to continue to disagree or possibly reach an accord.
At the end of a six-hour meeting Monday, the City Commission, seated as the CRA board, unanimously voted to have staff continue working with the current team behind the long-planned, unbuilt mixed-use project at the corner of West University Avenue and Northwest 13th Street in an effort to get more detailed construction costs that demonstrate the project is not financially feasible without the incentives sought. Staff is also to identify the specific public benefits added to the project because of those incentives.
"I want them to come to us with the information that we need so that the public has a high degree of confidence that we are getting the return on the investment that we asked for," Commissioner Lauren Poe said.
The developers have asked to receive back up to 90 percent of the property tax monies that University Corners would generate for the city's College Park/University Heights CRA district for a period of 20 years — a projected total of almost $48.8 million.
The tax rebate is sought through a CRA incentive program for "transformational," large-scale redevelopment projects that "can literally transform the districts in which they develop, changing the face of the community."
To approve the request, the City Commission would have to change the policy for that program and increase the allowable amount of a tax refund above the current 80 percent cap.
CRA staff and outside consultants have recommended denial of the application. They said that other projects in the district — including high-end student housing, the Stadium Club and the ongoing development of the Innovation Hub — no longer make University Corners transformational for the area. They also said the developer had not met a series of requests to provide more details on construction costs and financing or potential retail tenants to confirm that "but for" the incentives, the project could not be built.
"We don't have sufficient information to do the analysis. It has been frustrating for us," CRA Finance Manager Lynn Janoski said.
University Corners' representatives responded that some information the CRA sought, such as signed leases and letters of intent from prospective tenants, is not available at this early stage. The developers' local land-use attorney, David Coffey, said the CRA also sought an "extensive amount of personal financial data" from the developers involved and were subjecting the project to an unprecedented level of scrutiny.
Brett Dill, president of the Miami-Dade-based Swerdlow Group, the lead developer on the project, expressed frustration at the lack of personal interaction with CRA staff. He said communication from the city or its consultants on the application primarily came by way of a letter that was a "regurgitation" of the previous letter.
The current development team includes New York-based Oaktree Capital Management, the main equity investor; Swerdlow; Gainesville student housing firm the Collier Companies; and the Key West-based hospitality firm the Spottswood Companies.
The project has approvals to be a 10-story, 110-foot-high building with 500 residential units; a 250-room hotel; a 1,131-space parking garage and 78,330 square feet of retail space.
Current plans for the hotel, at 142 rooms, and the parking garage, at 952 spaces, would not hit those maximum thresholds.
Coffey and Dill have both said the incentives are needed because of additions to the project to meet the city's redevelopment plan, including the parking garage and more expensive building facade materials.
Poe made the motion to continue to try to gather more information. It passed 6-0, with Randy Wells absent for the meeting. As part of the vote, the commission plans to tie any incentives to a series of requirements that include a grocery store as a tenant and LEED certification for the building. Construction workers would have to be paid wages that meet the criteria of the federal Davis-Bacon Act. If it proves to be legal, at least 20 percent of the construction workers would have to be minorities.
Poe's motion passed after Mayor Ed Braddy's motion to deny the application for incentives failed and Commissioner Thomas Hawkins withdrew a motion to approve the incentives, with many of the same conditions eventually included in what Poe put on the floor. For final approval, the incentives and conditions would have had to come back for a vote in a formal written agreement.
The motion to deny the incentives failed 4-2, with Commissioner Todd Chase and Braddy in the minority.
Braddy said the city needed to get more financial and construction cost information upfront instead of approving incentives with conditions attached down the road.
During public comment, both support and opposition were expressed. Those in favor of the incentives said the prime piece of real estate had sat vacant for too long and spoke of the hundreds of jobs that would be created during construction and after completion.
Those in opposition questioned why a development on a prime piece of real estate at a well-traveled intersection would need incentives to be profitable.

every split as her advantage grew all the way down 40-gate
course. She crossed the line with a 0.83-second cushion between her and second-place finishing Riesch. It was her first
super G win in Lake Louise.
"I'm really happy," said Vonn. "I really wanted to close out this
weekend and leave on a positive note and take advantage of
my opportunity. I was worried that I wasn't going to get a win
here in Lake Louise this year, but I gave it everything I had
here and I skied with aggression and passion and had a great
inspection and I'm just extremely happy with the win today."
If it weren't for losing six-hundredths of a second in the last
few gates, it would have been U.S. 1-2 as Julia Mancuso again
showed her speed in third place. It was Mancuso's sixth career
World Cup super G podium. Vonn and Mancuso have now
shared nine World Cup podiums and one Olympic podium.
"I just went out of the gate charging," said Mancuso. "I was
psyched to be on the podium. It's nice to have been skiing really well and consistent in the downhill, so to finish it off with a
third place and my best super G result there is refreshing. I'm
excited and I think it will just get better through the season."
Cook (20th), Ross (21st), McKennis (22st) and Smith (23rd)
again scored.
It was a tough home stand for the women in yellow. Marie-Michele Gagnon was the only Canadian to secure any World
Cup points with a 27-place finish in the super G.
The overall World Cup race also got more interesting after the super G as Vonn trailed Riesch by 169 points in the
overall title. Vonn has taken the overall title the last three
consecutive seasons while Riesch has been runner-up the
last two.
Elisabeth Goergl finished fifth in the second Lake Louise downhill
even after tearing a ligament in her left knee.

Cast: Jagapathi Babu, Priyamani, Kick Shyam, Aditya Menon and Kota Srinivasa Rao
Director: T Venugopal
Producer: T. Govindarajan
Music: Koti
Genre: Action-Romance
[xrr rating=1/5]
T. Govindarajan's production and T Venugopal's directed action romantic thriller features Jagapathi Babu, Priyamani, Kick Shyam, Aditya Menon and Kota Srinivasa Rao. The film's music has been scored y Koti. The movie was the talk of town and now it is out in cinemas to be watched. The Telugu movie 'Kshetram' was being awaited much by Priyamani who was waiting for a hit after her ongoing shaking career. Unfortunately she has to wait for another flick since this one is sure to bring nothing lucrative for her. The movie stars Jagapathi Babu in the specially knitted character.
The execution fails to generate any oomph values for the viewers who specially came to get the cinemas adorned with their presence but their hard earned money went simply waste. Disappointment at their end – sure, they are! The script is lifeless. Story that has been used to scribble down the screenplay and dialogues on is pretty ordinary and old through it has commercial values. But what you will do with the commercial aspects of the story when the script written on it has nothing alluring?
Kshetram talks about Narasimha Rayalu (Jagapathi Babu) and Lakshmi (Priyamani) who get killed by their own people (played by Aditya Menonn and Kota Srinivasa Rao). The killing happens when the two (Nrasimha and Lakshmi) brings the Lord Lakshmi Narasimha's idol from the jungle to the temple in the area. Their act can bring the money for the poor of the place but this is not swallowed by some who eventually murder them. Lakshmi's soul does not leave the place and moves on there. And when Sohani (Priyamani) comes to the scene, her soul slips into her. Sohani is to tie the knot with Chaktri (Shyam) who is also the reincarnated form of Narasimha. Now the revenge starts when Sohani (Lakshmi's soul) begins killing the culprits.
The story is not novel at all. These kinds of revenge based flicks where the souls enter into some other bodies and start killing the evildoers. The script is a big letdown. It has been written with childish style. It is just like we read a ghost children story.
The direction is mundane. The director has no potential to bind the viewer till the end. The climax shows his lack of skills.
Cinematography, which should be the high point in these kinds of subjects, is lackluster. Editing fails simply to attract. Music is pretty ordinary.
Now coming to the performances, Priyamani is the central character of the movie and she displays the weak performance to be best avoided. Jagapathi Babu is average. Aditya Menon seems not to be in his elements. Kota is average.
On the whole, Kshetram is a weak fare and does not have values to be viewed specially in theaters.

The Schiavo decision: emotional, but legally controversial?
Willmott, Lindy, White, Benjamin P., & Cooper, Donna M. (2006) The Schiavo decision: emotional, but legally controversial? Bond Law Review, 18(1), pp. 132-159.
|Accepted Version (PDF 130kB)
Although the decision to withdraw artificial nutrition and hydration from Terri Schiavo attracted an enormous amount of international publicity, from a legal perspective the decision was unsurprising. This article explores this view by comparing the law that governs the withholding or withdrawal of life-sustaining medical treatment in Florida where the Schiavo decision was made, and the equivalent law in Queensland. It concludes that although the legislation is expressed in different terms, the same decision would be reached if a case similar to Terri Schiavo's arose in Queensland. Indeed, it is suggested that this conclusion is also likely to be reached in other common law jurisdictions.

Beginning Jazz Guitar is a great start for anyone with knowledge of basic chords and guitar scale fingerings. The chapters are clearly divided into harmony and improvisation lessons, with every new concept accompanied by etudes and songs for practice. Topics like the major scales, basic triad theory, extended chords, and the modes are included.
For guitarists who have learned the basics of jazz harmony and improvisation, Intermediate Jazz Guitar continues the format of Beginning Jazz Guitar with topics like the ii-V-I progression, solo lines, altered chord formulas, and comping in various jazz feels.
The chord-melody section of Mastering Jazz Guitar picks up where Intermediate Jazz Guitar leaves off, with topics like integrating melody and harmony, developing bass lines, chord enhancement, quartal harmonies, and how to compose a guitar solo. Improvisation topics in the second half include playing over altered dominant chords, the diminished scale, the whole tone scale, targeting the altered chords, revamping licks, modes of the minor scales, and more.

Diet and Nutrition Q&A by Betty Kovacs
I love to drink, but I'm trying to diet. Are there any alcoholic beverages that I can drink without gaining weight?
Author: Betty Kovacs, MS, RD
Medical Author: William C. Shiel Jr., MD, FACP, FACR
It's great that you realize that alcohol can impact your weight. I have worked with many people who don't realize how much their liquid calories interfere with their weight loss.
To begin with, the dietary guidelines for alcohol consumption are:
If you do choose to drink, and want to lose weight, here are some tips:
Research has shown that liquid calories do not satisfy us the way that calories from food does. On top of that, the calories are considered "empty" calories because you are not getting a lot of nutrients in the beverage. It's important to keep alcohol as a treat and factor in the calories from it that way. Do not replace food with alcohol as a way of cutting calories.
Thank you for your question.

When you hear the name Romance Was Born a number of words may spring to mind, and odds are commercial isn't high on the list. But what we saw on the VAMFF (Melbourne fashion festival) runway wasn't patched together from granny squares or seashells, or covered in bodypaint, or capped off by giant, theatrical headpieces. No, this was Romance at its most commercially appealing.
The east-meets-west theme yielded some bright florals and star city sequins; statement pieces that are worn to wow. But the pieces worth adding to your wardrobe are more so the sheer lace pieces – edgier than they are delicate for their boldness – and a va-va-voom mandarin collar jacket that was trimmed in fur.

DENVER, Colo. – NAU senior diver Kristy Ardavanis picked up right where she left off last year in opening her season with this week's WAC Diver of the Week award after receiving the honor five times during the 2011-12 season. Ardavanis posted the top NAU scores on both 1-meter and 3-meter against New Mexico and helped lead the Lumberjacks to a 152-148 win over the Lobos.
A native of Gilbert, Ariz., Ardavanis placed second on 1-meter against New Mexico at 319.28, finishing just six points back of first place and 19 points ahead of third place with the second highest 1-meter score in program history. She also placed third on 3-meter with a score of 322.58 as she contributed seven points to NAU's winning total. Both of her scores already qualify Ardavanis for the NCAA Zone meet after her first competition of the year, as she will compete at the NCAA Zones for the fourth consecutive season.
Ardavanis put together one of the best diving seasons in program history last year as she earned two All-WAC first team honors with a second place finish on 1-meter and a fourth place finish on 3-meter at the WAC Championships. At the NCAA Zone E Diving regional she advanced to the final and led NAU with a 12th-place finish on 3-meter and a 24th-place finish on 1-meter, with her performance placing her on the NCAA Championship priority list for the zone.
Ardavanis and the Lumberjacks will be back in action when they host Northern Colorado on Nov. 3 at 11 a.m. in Wall Aquatic Center.

what kind of wood is this?
4 Attachment(s)
house is located in southern ontario Canada. it is around 100 yrs old. floors are original to the house. there are no knotts at all.
here is the BEFORE picture.. see how bad shape the floors are in?
AFTER 5 hours of sanding...
next i must rent the edger & apply stain.
question: what kind of wood is this?
i have compared the white wood with a piece of oak i had from HD. looks similar. the red coloured wood, what is this?
Possibly red oak?
4 Attachment(s)
never heard of such a thing.. but sounds about right :)
Wow. Don't stain it - throw down some polyurethane - it's looks awesome.
The light colored wood looks like maple, the dark colored could be cherry, hard to tell in the photo. Looks much too red to be oak. Cherry is a hard wood, not quite as hard as maple, if you can scratch it easily with a fingernail it is probably not cherry.
If you could get a little closer picture of the wood grain it might be easier to tell. Cherry and maple sounds like a good guess.
I'm sitting here admiring the craftsmanship that went into installing that floor. I agree with the poly coat, please don't stain it. It is definitely different and I like it.
poly poly poly poly poly!!!!!!
that is a unique situation poly poly poly!!!
i say poly only!
awesome find
Could also be mahogany and maple.
Wow what a great find... It would kill me to stain that floor if it were in my house but you gotta do what look right. Is there any other similar features in this house you could share with us like built ins, interesting trim or a decorative staircase???
Not a close enough image to determine wood type.
Looks great, the only other time I have seen this is on a boat. Poly or oil for sure.
Fir flooring was very common that long ago. It would be a local material as well.
looks like cherry/maple to me.... take a few close ups of some knotty/grained areas and we can tell better.
i think definitely 2 separate wood species though, as sanding would have removed most/all stain.
it also looks like that someone created that floor custom, as i see no butted edges in the planks.
you probably won't find 12'+ planks of flooring in bigbox stores... heh heh
Another vote for cherry and maple. Look at the end of the seventh board from the right, just in front of the waste pipe. Is that a curly grain I see there?
I think I'd go a step beyond ordinary poly and protect that beautiful old craftsmanship with a gym floor finish.
Macros would really help, though. Can't zoom it enough to tell for sure without being too blurred.

LOYALHANNA TOWNSHIP — The threadbare shirt a man's father, now deceased, dressed in for years, though it went out of style before his children were even born.
A boy's pair of jeans, now too small, holes in the knees and grass stains holding the memory of pickup games and trips to a favorite fishing hole.
The time-faded dress a woman wore the summer evening she went on the first date with the man she'd marry.
Treasured clothing items like these, Juliann Rager cuts to pieces.
Her actions, however, belie the thoughtful intent behind the destruction.
Rager, 38, of Loyalhanna Township, is making handmade quilts by piecing together scraps of clothes that have outlived their usefulness but still carry sentimental value.
"People want to make sense of their memories," she said. "We keep things that have meaning and value that you don't know what to do with at times."
Now she does know what to do with those things, drawing inspiration from both her own life and her own closet.
In April, she took to the project in earnest, naming it "Once Upon a Time Quilts" and starting a blog and a Facebook page with vivid photos and detailed write-ups. There she showcases a braid-patterned quilt, inspired by one of her nieces.
Wedding memories and clothes packed away proved to be a match made in heaven for one of her latest projects.
Rager has gathered a sampling of clothes worn at the Ocean City, Md., beach ceremony where she and husband, Scott, exchanged marriage vows. The colors evoke an oceanscape, with sand-colored khakis, a deep blue denim dress and a simple white gown the color of wave crests.
"The whole energy of that day is in the clothes," she said.
Turning up the hem of her wedding dress, she revealed tiny flecks of sand, still clinging to the seam.
An avid seamstress, Rager came up with the idea to transform much-loved clothing into handmade quilts several years ago. But before her scissors even make a single snip, she learns as much as she can about her subject.
"I take notes of their stories. My goal, in hearing their story, is to somehow translate that into the design of my quilt," she said.
Though she takes a unique approach, she also draws inspiration from a patchwork of influences. Rager stresses that the idea behind quilts like hers is one that has existed for hundreds of years.
"The idea of giving clothes a second life as something else is not a new concept at all," she said.
It was only in the last century or so that people began to buy fabric specifically to make quilts, she said. Before then, using scraps from clothing to make quilts was the norm.
"Nobody would go and buy fabric to make a quilt — they used whatever was left," she said. "Nobody threw anything away."
The quilt endeavor, she said, blended seamlessly into her household, since she and her family have strived to live a lifestyle that is economically sound and rather sustainable.
"It's just the principle of being a good steward of what you have, living below your means and creating at least as much as you consume, if not more," she said.
Another common thread running through Rager's work is family. Nowhere is that more clear, perhaps, than in a quilt she is making from old Hawaiian shirts. She drew her inspiration from her parents.
The couple met in 1967 when her father was serving in Vietnam. The two had to part not long after they married, due to military and work obligations.
After being a world away from each other for nearly a year, they came up with a plan to meet.
"He flew east from Vietnam to Hawaii and she flew west from California to Hawaii and they met at Christmastime," Rager said. "So Hawaii and Hawaiian-themed stuff has always been special to them."
The quilt came to be in the spring, when Rager's mother asked her to make something with her father's Hawaiian shirts. He passed away in 2009 and, while she had given away many of his clothes, it was hard to part with the last few.
Rager went right to work, finding a traditional Hawaiian quilt pattern to accent the brightly colored squares. She compares making the intricate Hawaiian designs to making paper snowflakes, as both are first folded to create a symmetrical end result.
"You cut it out and there is this beautiful mirrored image," she said.
The fabrics aren't the only intricate parts of the project.
Her mother wove a tapestry rich with recollections as she shared with her daughter the story of her marriage.
"Her memories were awakened," Rager said. "She was in the moment and she started going back in time. The stories started coming out."

Richard Gere is set to make his return to the big screen next month with his new movie Arbitrage.
The movie marks the feature-directing debut of writer Nicholas Jarecki while Gere has already picked up a Golden Globe nomination for his central performance.
We haven't seen too much of Gere of late but this is being tipped as one of the best performances of his career.
And we have the brand new trailer for the film for you to take a look at:
Gere is one reason to get excited about the film but he is supported by a terrific cast that includes Susan Sarandon, Tim Roth and Brit Marling.
When we first meet New York hedge-fund magnate Robert Miller (Gere), he appears the very portrait of success in American business and family life.
However, behind the gilded walls of his mansion, Miller is in over his head, desperately trying to conceal an affair with French art-dealer Julie Cote (Casta) whilst racing to complete the sale of his trading empire to a major bank before his fraudulent dealings are revealed.
When a tragic accident complicates things further, attracting the unwanted attention of tenacious NYPD detective Michael Bryer (Roth), Miller finds himself battling not just for his reputation but also his life.
As the net tightens around him, Miller realises that the suspicions of not just the police but also his loyal wife (Sarandon) and heir-apparent (Marling) have been aroused.
With time running out, can Miller find a way out without destroying his own life and those around him?

2013 M3 questions
I am going to purchase my third BMW soon. I have decided to dive into the deep end and go for the 2013 M3.
This is my first post on Bimmer Forum so I appreciate your patience.
Questions: 1. My other Bmw's have had run flats. I am getting the competition package and there are no run flats. How well do the
hold up? I have never had a flat with the run flats. I am concerned about not having a spare.
2. I am looking at European pickup and I understand that the 2013 M3 will be built until October of 2013. I am planning on a mid July pick up in Munich. Is this information accurate?
3. I have always had a manual. I love my 135 Coupe and I just cannot imagine an automatic transmission. Thoughts and feedback on manual vs the double clutch 7 speed.
4.I also plan on sticking with the carbon fiber roof and not going with a moon roof. Feedback on this?
5. Any other information that is important for me to know right now.
Thanks for your feedback. I am glad there is a forum like this for my questions.

Was a hard one....I had to sell my beloved rifle. My SA M1A SocomII...is no longer mine:frown:.
BUT it wasn't without.....it will help pay for the last semester for my wife's schooling. She will be the bread bringer after she finishs in December...:image035:
So I see it as from one investment to another...still sucks though. I know it will be a WHILE before I can own such a rifle, will have to pay off school loans before I can buy my main rifle back.
For now, I have a Norinco SKS and a 870 Express 18inch for my long guns..... guees I can live without.:scruntiny:
I still have two 20rnd mags and over a hundred rounds of .308, and a Harris bi-pod I will sit on until I get another M1A.

Khloe Kardashian Sizzling in Completely Sheer Bodysuit. Tempting Tristan Thompson?
- 01:08 PM, Jun 23
"The Expendables" are back and this time it's personal...Barney Ross (Sylvester Stallone), Lee Christmas (Lee Statham), Yin Yang (Jet Li), Gunnar Jensen (Dolph Lundgren),Toll Road (Randy Couture) and Hale Caesar (Terry Crews) - with newest members Billy the Kid (Liam Hemsworth) and Maggie (Yu Nan) aboard - are reunited when Mr. Church (Bruce Willis) enlists the Expendables to take on a seemingly simple job. The task looks like an easy paycheck for Barney and his band of old-school mercenaries. But when things go wrong and one of their own is viciously killed, the Expendables are compelled to seek revenge in hostile territory where the odds are stacked against them. Hell-bent on payback, the crew cuts a swath of destruction through opposing forces, wreaking havoc and shutting down an unexpected threat in the nick of time - six pounds of weapons-grade plutonium; enough to change the balance of power in the world. But that's nothing compared to the justice they serve against the villainous adversary who savagely murdered their brother. That is done the Expendables way...
dwayne bonello this movie expandables 2 is the sequel of expendables and i will see it because there are great actors in this movie andd i will see it 5stars!

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
I learned the diff fluid lesson from your experience! Even though I don't need to pay a fortune to ship one I still don't want to ruin a good one.
It is sad to be heading into winter and only now feeling fit enough to work on it. The registration here is all payed for life. $150.00 and that is all I ever have to give the government! The only restriction on it as a collector vehicle is I can not drive it in the month of Feb. without buying a special permit. So the only cost to me is the insurance, which I have on it already anyway. Once I get a few of the first steps done I will be able to drive it on any nice dry days no matter how cold.
It was indeed a good day!

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
Better learning by others mistakes
Glad to know your car is ready to have all the rides you want just for $150!! forever. If I wanted to do this here I should pay $ 975-1300, so I registered my caddy in a city friendly with +25 years old cars where my girl lives, 19 miles from home, so I don´t have to pay taxes (By the moment as town halls are thirsty in this country). U.S. is a great nation -at least for classic car owners-.
new cars are more ecologic, fuel efficient safer, etc. but never as impressive as an old school caddy.

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
I think it was chosen because it was in the dead of winter and is the shortest month. The $150 for life lic. and regist. is a huge savings they wanted to reserve only for people who are truly using them for collector cars. It is open to any car in original form (Had to send photos to prove no modifications of all four sides, engine and interior!) and 20 years old. I think they wanted to avoid people just getting by cheap on old driver grade cars.
You must also have one full regular registration and actually $50 of that fee was for the collector number, additional cars can be added for $100/car after that. Subsequent cars would have the same number as the Talisman followed by a letter starting at A.
If I needed to take it to or from a shop in Feb it is $50 for a 2 week permit.
So...no reason

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
Wow! Here in KS, the only requirement is that the car be at least 35 years old and be original configuration. However, no ever asked for any proof of this. I've seen rat rods driving around with "Antique" plates.
Another cool thing they have done in recent years: You can get a regular white plate that says KS ANTIQUE with a number OR, if you find an original plate from the same year as your car, you can register it using that plate. (Kansas used to issue a new plate every year). I've already got my 1979 plate ready to register my coupe for 2014.
The only cost is the specialty plate fee, which is less than the cost of 2 years worth of regular registration. It becomes a permanent plate and you only pay your yearly $12 property tax.
Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
My collector number is the 173113, and that is the plate on Tally. I could get 173113A on my Volvo if I wanted. But it wouldn't save me any money, just let me show I am a "collector". (whoopie)
Actually if I had a really cool group of old cars it might be cool, but one clapped out old Fleetwood?....I'd feel sort of silly.
Wisconsin may do that on the antique plate (over 50 old) but I am not sure.
As far as the photos WI required and stock condition, I could have taken a photo of anybodies 74 and sent it to them, and the car already looks nothing like it did in the photos...so...I think you could get away with about anything!

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
I suspect I'm a bit late on this, but: use NO WD-40 on the ignition switch or other lock parts. If you use contact cleaner, protect other areas from overspray, then, after volatiles have neutralized, lubricate well with graphite or silicon lube (spray)--WD stays viscous and attracts and holds dust, thus "sandpapering" your tumblers, etc. Sandpaper baaaad.
I've learned that cleaning and lubing and replacing soft parts, plus attention to ignition and fuel supply are the most critical to start-up. Your situation is similar to that for my 1958 "62" 2-dr/ht and '69 Eldo. Replace the rubber fuel line betw tank and metal line (oft collapses or allows air to be sucked in), and rubber vacuum lines. Put rags over wiper arms if accidentally activating switch would cause "sandpapering of windshield. Sanding baaaad. Inspect and pre-test brakes if you plan to move car, check fluid levels (trans is tricky since must be checked hot, but I oft add some to tip of cold stick. Resist temptation of long tour--give 'er a rest to allow seals to plump up if they are going to, etc. Check fuses and note which are blown if not critical to start-up. You can check all electrical later. After it all looks promising, you can do trans filter/tune up, oil/filter change (soon after start-up, earlier than prescribed for next one.), carb rebuild and all the fun stuff of reconditioning/restoring in the land of love/hate. . . .
I'd like to find tires like the radial whitewall on your car. It is so "period," and looks a bunch better than inappropriate-width "gangstas." But it's YOUR car, so do what though wilst!
BTW, after polish/seal/wax job both of my long-term "Sitters," they looked and ran pretty much like new! Now, they've been sitting a long while, and I must follow my own advice. . . . . .
One more thing: be sure your battery/electrical grounds are clean and tight.
And, when you are older, I'll tell you the story of my friend Mark's mom, Beverly, and why she drove down Ventura Bouleverd in her '74 Talisman, horns honking and lights flashing!

Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
Thanks fer noticin' Bro Bro-Ham! They say only people of real character drive Cads. . . .um, make that: only real Characters drive Cads. . . . I have bushels of evidence, too. When you are older, I'll tell you about my visit in '95 to the Doc who delivered me, and who bought a new Cadillac EVERY year (and still did, tho he could no longer drive!).
I will say that in my various travels to make-specific car shows, I have always had the mos' fun with the Cad/LaSalle folk.
Re: Help bring her back to life. My 74 got delivered today.
Maybe Sally,.....Sally the Tali???
If I haven't said it already, welcome to the forum. (If I have..well..welcome to my thread!)
Preaching to the choir on the nothing but graphite in a lock. 26 year of hardware work I give that instruction at least two or three times a week. Not a fan of silicone either, but have allowed recently the exception of Teflon (PTFE) dry lube sprays. I always use/recommend aerosol lock de-icer to clean first. drys quickly, leaves no residue, is cheap and readily available (Around these parts.) and harms no materials.
I have the it running great, fires right up and idles smoothly. I am doing a challenging balancing act on this project. I need to get mechanical and body work done in an area in which working on a car is not allowed. (Apartment parking lot and garage.) I need to have it (get it?) ready to move to another spot on a days notice if requested to do so. I need to get it looking presentable enough not to rile neighbors or management. That is why my resto work is all over the map between body and mechanical. So far neighbors have all been welcoming and encouraging of the Beast.
Management almost had it towed at one point because it didn't have a steering wheel and was therefore not driveable. When I called the girl in the office I told her "Come on over and I will have the wheel in it and take you for a ride around the block!" She laughed and declined. A few weeks later when I renewed my lease (For year #11) she ask how the project was going, so I think I'm cool with them as long as I don't piss someone here off. (I wish I could be that smooth and charming on my own behalf, I might not be single!)
I am with you all the way on the proper classic white wall tires. When I repaint, I mean replace, mine it will be the same! I also agree that people should do with their cars whatever blows their skirts up!
However, as is always my policy....Everyone's intitled to MY opinion!
Now, to Talisman news, fired it up and took a little longer trip today. Drove over to the shopping center to check running, brake, backup and signal light operation in the windows.
Old trick I learned from the mechanics at the dealership I worked at. (Always wondered why they backed up to the showroom after their test drive of customers cars.)
Fired and ran great but was dead when I went to start and had to charge battery first, (Also was dead 5 min after I parked it and wanted to move it forward a couple feet). The steering started making noise on way home and left a trail in the garage as I was parking it so that has now moved to the top of the to do list! Has to be a hose for as much as it dropped and how fast. (I assume?)
Oops...Think they will know it was me?
Otherwise the drive turned up no other critical concerns. My plan was to clean engine and replace all hoses anyway so I will just start with PS first. Needs shocks all around, helper spring ones in back. Have to look into the whole electrical system. No charge first, and then probably shorts...lots of shorts! I hate electrical problems so it will be a real challenge to get it all squared away. I will soon learn what that multi-meter I bought years ago is for and how to use it!
So, a good day and the Beast is tucked in, in it's new home.

For the first time in four months, the November Intuit Small Business Employment Index showed an increase in employment. The hiring rate was up for the first time in four years.
The October Intuit Small Business Revenue Index showed declines in all industries, except construction.
Here are some additional highlights from this month's data:
November Employment Index
- Small business employment increased 0.06 percent, which is the equivalent of 10,000 jobs
- Average monthly compensation rose 0.4 percent, or $10, from October
- Average monthly hours worked by hourly employees rose 0.6 percent, or approximately 36 minutes, from October
"We've recently seen small reversals in an already very slow recovery in small business employment," said Susan Woodward, the economist who worked with Intuit to create the indexes. "The total recovery in small business employment from the dip in March 2010 is just under 2 percent, or more than 0.5 percent per year. The pace over the last year has seen a slightly slower increase, just 0.4 percent. After May 2013, the recovery has simply stalled.
"Despite these discouraging statistics, all of Intuit's other small business health measures are hopeful. Hours worked and monthly compensation are both unambiguously up and, most exciting of all, this month's hiring rate is the highest we have seen since January 2009. The hiring rate reflects openings that businesses fill to replace employees who leave for better or different jobs. This means people are confident enough to leave jobs – an encouraging sign for the economy."
Hours worked and average compensation for hourly employees increased in November. Both figures are seasonally adjusted, which means that the growth is solid, and not a temporary boost due to small businesses gearing up for the holidays, according to Woodward.
This latest employment index is based on anonymized data from approximately 206,000 small businesses, a subset of Intuit Online Payroll and QuickBooks Online Payroll users. It covers the period from Oct. 24 through Nov. 23.
October Revenue Index
- On a per-business basis, small business revenues saw an overall decline of 0.4 percent in October
- Of the industries tracked by the revenue index, the construction sector was the only one to see an increase
- The professional services industry and the real estate sector showed the largest declines, at 0.7 percent each
"In terms of year-over-year changes in revenue across all industries, revenues are up 2.5 percent," said Woodward. "The construction industry plunged in 2006, but is now seeing the most growth, up 7 percent from August 2012 to August 2013."
This latest revenue index is based on anonymized data from approximately 150,000 small businesses, a subset of QuickBooks Online users, covering the period from Oct. 1 through Oct. 31.

Are you trying to help an elder from a distance? Is it difficult to get information about what's really happening? Do you worry about what will happen when you're not there? The Lab will host a workshop on long distance care giving on Monday, March 18, from noon to 1 p.m. in Building 90-1099. Participants will learn when and how to help, how to find resources in your elder's community that can assist them, and how to receive support for yourself. This free workshop will be led by Maureen Kelly of UC Berkeley's CARE Services.
March 18 Elder Care Workshop on Long Distance Care Giving
March 6, 2013
You can leave a comment. View the Comment Policy.
I'd also like to know if there is registration. I'd like to attend, but it will take some effort to make it to Building 90 and I don't want to make the trip only to be shut out of a full room.
I will be attending.
Is there a need to register for this workshop?
Is this elder care workshop open to spouses?

What's Happening? (edition 1963)
by John Nicholas Iannuzzi
Work details
What's Happening? by John Nicholas Iannuzzi
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Sometimes wildly offensive (even though at the time, it would probably have been considered very forward-moving in how it portrayed minorities and homosexuals), other times almost charming in how innocent it seemed for being a book "banned in the Village" and elsewhere. The writing also teetered back and forth with some really poetic passages and then some that just seemed like hack writing. Overall, because of the wild inconsistencies (partly due to how long ago it was written I suppose) I found it entertaining.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
No descriptions found.
Banned in court, burned in Greenwich Village, What's Happening? dares tell the shocking truth about the beat generation. The kind of no-holds-barred truth that has offended some, that others have tried to suppress, the kind of truth that dares to be told! A realistic novel about America's Left Bank—its rebels, its outcasts, its morally confused and sexually misguided and their frantic, neverending search for brand-new kicks and offbeat thrills. In addition to being an author, John Nicholas Iannuzzi is a celebrated New York City trial attorney and an adjunct professor of law. He also breeds and trains Lipizzan horses.… (more)
