Best Of :: Food & Drink
Like any blank canvas, tofu is only as good as the artist who prepares it, and "natural" food can sometimes taste like a form of punishment. Lucky for us Suzanne's chef is first-rate, and her menu is downright indulgent (in a health-nutty, new-agey way). Open since November 1999 for take-out, lunch, and dinner, this meatless wonder offers classy (not stuffy) fare that's kind to animals and your (nonleather) wallet. Although the menu is vegan (no dairy, eggs, et cetera, are used), the results are hearty and flavorful enough to tempt even die-hard flesh-eaters. The organic wines, available by the glass (from $3.95) or bottle (from $17.95), don't hurt, either. An introductory dinner here -- grilled tofu, steamed organic vegetables, and brown rice in tahini sauce ($8.95) -- was a sign of good things to come, including a juicy, robust tofu Reuben with deliciously (un)creamy coleslaw. And hey, if it'll enhance your pleasure, go ahead and pretend you're dining on the deceased. We won't squeal to PETA.
Oh, we know the myth. The best hamburgers are made from ground chuck, because the meat has more fat in it. The fat then prevents the burger from shrinking into a McDonald's-esque disk while cooking. Well, baloney. At the downtown location of Morton's, the hamburger is a full eight ounces of lean ground sirloin. Hard to feel guilty eating that. And it's just about the juiciest thing we've encountered outside the Chris Paciello story. The single drawback? The burger is served only during the noontime meal. Still, order with a side of lyonnaise taters, and that's what we call a power lunch.
This converted no-tell motel on South Dixie is painted a really disgusting shade of green; a more reliable harbinger of the food within can be seen in the clusters of patrons on the benches outside the front door, eagerly awaiting their tables. Inside it's long and narrow, with a boxcarlike feel, but the friendly service and the pungent scent of Thai basil, fish sauce, and chili paste more than compensate for the cramped quarters. A Thai restaurant is only as good as its pad thai, and this one kills: a light hand with the ground pork, and it actually has plenty of shrimp! The rich curries are excellent, as are appetizers like tiger tear and nam sod. The chefs also show a deft touch with seafood; if you find a restaurant of any ethnic description that can cook up a tastier whole snapper, let us know. And if you like your Thai food with plenty of fire, you'll be pleased to know Siam Lotus Room actually takes you at your word when you ask for "four stars" of spiciness. Ouch! Hurts so good.
You just made it. Booth okay? Care for a beverage? Will that be the pasta fagioli or the garden salad? And your rolls: plain or dripping with garlic? For dinner there's lasagna, stuffed shells, eggplant rollatini, chicken parmigiana, veal cacciatore, linguine in clam sauce, ziti with sausage, or something else ... I forgot; I'll be right back. What do you mean you're full? No dessert? Either way it's $7.95. Come on, take the cannoli! (Oh well, just come back: The early bird special is offered seven days a week, 4:00 to 7:00 p.m.)
Tart enough. Sweet enough. Mellow yellow filling, almost ecru. Velvety texture. Moist, crumbly graham cracker crust. Outside edge daintily adorned with a ring of whipped cream. Center garnished with more cream and a twisted lime slice. Ideal to serve to your friends, but at close to ten bucks, certainly not meant to throw at your enemies.
Some folks visit this corner storefront eatery for its baked pastas. Other patrons go for its wonderfully prepared veal scaloppine dishes and fillets of fish sprinkled with capers. And most appreciate the lengths the staff goes to ensure that even those waiting for a table outside have a glass of refreshment. We, however, frequent the cafe for its absolutely fresh caesar salad, which is redolent with garlic, Parmesan, and the all-important anchovies. Oh, we know picky diners don't like to look an anchovy fillet in the eye, so to speak. But you don't have to. The dressing here incorporates chopped anchovies, not whole ones, so you get the proper flavor without being, well, grossed out. Best of all, the kitchen will split an order for you, and the results usually are two huge salads for the price of one.

Hi @baileynoelhi hi hi
Hi My luv so sorry about my first creepy response. My phone froze up and then accidentally sent it. But I wanted to send out my love and support to you becuz I myself haven't been having the most blissful of times with the father of my child either. As a matter of fact I literally almost had a nervous break down from all the stress and crying I was doing yesterday from dealing with him. I just turned 10 weeks today and though my situation is nowhere near the same as yours it isn't any easier either. My advice is give it some time he is young and could just be scared most people tend to come around with things like this. Especially once the baby gets here. Until then you have to do your best to focus on your health, your needs and the baby's needs as best as you can. Do not get like me missy and let his mess almost jeopardize your child's life. What we're experiencing right now is one of the most precious and most beautiful gift in the world you have to remind yourself of that daily!!! and if you feel like your ready for this right now do not let anyone!!!! Rob you of that. My baby father supports my pregnancy but my Mother I know isn't and that to me that is harder I would prefer if both were in support of this but my moms especially hands down. Men can be so wishy washy and I know that my mother wouldn't be that way she'll be there till the very end if she was in support of it. But what can you do? I'm learning to count my blessings. So yes just give it some time and if you can for the moment just try to tune him out as much as you can for you and your baby's sake. Your not alone there are tons of girls that are and have been in your position and many have pressed forward to raise some upstanding adults. My hope for you is that your baby father would come around and be 100% involved in the care and upbringing of your child. But should that not be the scenario his lost and you and your baby will be just fine there's so much support out there these days especially for young single mothers. Please keep your baby for all you know you could be carrying the person that has the cure for cancer and you wouldn't want to miss that.
Good luck my love! Keep me posted with how things are coming along. Everything is going to be so great!
It's still really early and he's probably just really freaked out. Especially if he never wanted kids at any time in life. He doesn't sound like he will really not support you because he said he didn't want to bring a child in the world and have it have a terrible life so I think that shows he cares about the baby's well being and how he/she grows up, don't stress it right now, just focus on the baby and let him digest the news for a little bit, I think he'll come around
It's early, he is still shocked. Give it time and maybe he will come around. Some people are just not ready mentally but once it sets in they realize what they need to do for that precious child. Do not let anyone convince you to give up your baby if that's not your choice. If you want to keep your baby and raise him/her, you are a strong woman who can do that with our without a man. Stay strong
Some guys initial reaction is to freak out and run away. He knows his whole life is changing and doesn't want to lose his freedom. My bf was the same way in the beginning but came around and did a 180 change. He'll most likely start changing his attitude on the matter after the first trimester.
My advice would be don't force him to come to appointments and look at ultrasound pictures, instead invite him too. I found the more desperate and pushy I was the more it felt like a responsibility to him. The more excited and confident you are the more comfortable it will make him. He will definitely feel curious and that he's missing out. Don't show him your doubts. Show him your confident in your ability to step up and become a great mom. I'm your same age and am now 28 weeks. The beginning of my pregnancy was so rough. His behavior stressed me the hell out and I wish I would've just let him go through his 'new dad funk' on his own. God has a plan and everything will fall into place with time. Just trust in yourself and have faith in yourself. Us women are strong and you'll get through this. Sending love & prayers your way. Xoxo
Just be prepared to be a single mom, meaning independent financially and emotionally and love that baby.

I would like to show my interest in becoming verified for the following reasons. 1> Minecraft has always been just team-neo for me and i play here for at least 10 hours a day. 2>Its a lot of fun mostly but sometimes there's a need for reporting hackers or abusers or just calm some spammer down. And as it is true in most cases; People like this only respond to a verified or admin. 3>I am online at odd hours for others when there is no admin or verified online for 5-7 hours at a stretch. And at such times people like these are troublesome to other players. I report all of such incidents as many admins know. 4> I consider myself trustworthy cause i didn't even get any verbal warning ever as i never break rules. And am quite aware of all the server rules(Unless there are some that i don't know off which are not in server guide). 5> Lastly i am an avid redstoner and due to the hopper bug fix i am unable to make stuff that i would love to make. I'd like the verified ability to place them so I can keep tinkering with redstone. Thats all, Thanks for taking your time in reading this. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The world-conquering Montreal indie rockers return to London to play a huge show as part of the British Summer Time series. Their latest disco-dipped album, 'Reflektor', and its extra-hefty dose of uplifting, orchestral odd-pop went down rather nicely last year, so expect them to be showcasing plenty of those tracks as well as some much-loved classics.
They've also brought some impressive supporting guests with them: Wild Beasts, Band Of Skulls, Future Islands and – somewhat surprisingly – Jake Bugg. It should all add up to a storming live show – Arcade Fire don't really do understated, so expect this to be an epic one.

And the Quills quivered
Published: March 17 2013 - 3:00AM
Melbourne's journalistic community celebrated its night of nights on Friday, with the annual Quills given some added cachet this year with the appearance of a big-name Hollywood star, Rachel Griffiths - who managed to knock the room sideways with a scorching speech on sexism in the media business.
Griffiths made it clear early on this wouldn't be a speech for the faint-hearted.
''Anyone who knows me knows that my favourite word is f---,'' she declared.
She then opened fire on male domination of the senior echelons of the industry. ''The Vatican Curia looks only marginally worse.''
There were jokes about Nine's boardroom being ''a private space to compare their dicks''.
And there was this advice for Gina Rinehart: ''Please take Andrew [Bolt] to lunch and eat him.'' That fat joke at Rinehart's expense somewhat diluted Griffiths closing argument: ''Women are held to a different standard of scrutiny. Their hair, their voice, their clothes, their reproductive choices, their emotionality, their ex-boyfriends and their sex lives. Whereas men get a free pass.''
Verdict from the Quills crowd? Many loved it, some were aghast.Legend of the media receives her due
Still at the Quills: Griffiths' speech was delivered in the context of her presenting the Melbourne Press Club's Lifetime Achievement Award to magazine legend Dulcie Boling - whom Griffiths (right, with Mandy McElhinney playing Woman's Day editor Nene King) portrays in the ABC's forthcoming Paper Giants: Magazine Wars.
Boling stood stoically on stage as the actor made her remarks - her career is ''a miracle'', Griffiths said - and then Boling shared her own thoughts on her groundbreaking life in publishing.
''The men weren't all that hard, once you'd beaten them over the head a few times,'' joked the woman who once ran Rupert Murdoch's magazine empire. ''That's when I specialised my stare - the long, cold stare. They'd be carrying on and they'd look around and they'd catch the stare and you could see them thinking, 'Oh, God'.'' Murdoch, she said, was misunderstood. ''So different to what people think of him.''
Of her glory days as editor of the million-selling New Idea, Boling said wistfully: ''They were the golden years for so many of us.'' And of being a feminist, she said: ''You don't have to go on banging the drum. Just do it.''
At 76, Boling remains busy - she is on the board of directors of the Seven Network.Conventional wisdom feels need for change
With Sydney's convention centre shutting down at year's end pending a Darling Harbour revamp, Melbourne should have the inside running on the lucrative international convention and exhibition business in Australia.
Last December, Melbourne Convention and Visitors Bureau CEO Karen Bolinger flagged a change in strategy - closing the bureau's Hong Kong office and ditching its long-standing US sales reps in favour of a new company, Los Angeles-based Myriad Marketing.
Now comes word of what sounds like a ripper gig helping drive Melbourne's push for business in the prized US market: Myriad is advertising for a MICE director - that's Meeting, Incentive, Convention, Exhibition - based in Manhattan, ''with benefits''. The ad includes lots of corporate gobbledegook - things like ''Align market efforts with Melbourne headquarters to ensure synergy and optimise returns''. All of which we think translates as follows: More cashed-up Yanks by the Yarra, please.CNN draws captive audience to our prisons
When selling Melbourne to the world there is much to brag about - but one thing that hadn't occurred to us as a major marketing point for foreign visitors is the Old Melbourne Gaol. It's a fascinating and historic landmark for locals, of course, but it was a surprise to find this particular city icon attracting top billing from CNN in a story headlined: ''Ten prisons now open to travellers.'' The Russell Street site was listed second - with the hanging of Ned Kelly duly noted, naturally - on a list topped by San Francisco's Alcatraz, and also including South Africa's notorious Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela and other anti-apartheid activists were jailed. Port Arthur also gets a nod - though CNN oddly fails to mention that the Tasmanian destination has another more recent and traumatic claim on Australian memories.

Pharmacists dispense prescription medications to patients and offer advice on their safe use.
Careers within the pharmaceutical field are diverse and provide many opportunities for challenging and rewarding service. There are eight specialty areas:
The Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree requires the completion of a 4-year program at an accredited school of pharmacy. Some Pharm.D. graduates obtain further training through 1-year or 2-year residency programs or fellowships. All states require pharmacists to be licensed.
Pharm.D. programs generally take 4 years to complete. The courses offered are designed to teach you about all aspects of drug therapy. In addition to receiving classroom instruction, you will spend time working with licensed pharmacists in a variety of practice settings.
College Major
You are not required to select a particular major in order to be eligible for admission to a pharmacy program. In selecting a college major, consider how you will satisfactorily complete the prerequisite courses for your designated pharmacy program(s). In addition to the college/university's degree and major requirements. Work with your academic and/or pre-pharmacy advisor to plan your course schedule.
You have the option to choose from a wide variety of undergraduate majors to prepare you for a pharmacy program. Suggested undergraduate majors include Biochemistry, Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, and Neuroscience.
Most programs look for a minimum undergraduate cumulative 2.5 GPA but the average GPA for matriculates is a 3.5 cumulative and a 3.6 in the sciences. Keep in mind these numbers are averages and various schools can have their own averages that are higher or lower. Also, these averages are climbing higher each year and admission to pharmacy schools is more competitive than ever. Be sure you take your studies seriously and put in the proper time for reading, studying, and review for each course.
The American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) endorses the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) as the official preferred admissions test for entrance to pharmacy school. Approximately 85% of U.S. colleges and schools of pharmacy require the PCAT for admission. You should aim to have a score in the 70th percentile in order to stay competitive.
Most students take this exam the summer before their senior year. In order to register for the PCAT you will need to complete the following:
In several locations throughout Michigan.
All applicants need to be aware that the Admissions Committee also views one's knowledge of the profession of pharmacy to be of importance. You should consider shadowing a pharmacist to learn the daily objectives of the field. This will help you discover if this is truly the path for you. Having strong career experiences and life accomplishments will allow you to validate your professionalism and maturity, which are strongly considered in the application process.
There is now a centralized application process for pharmacy school. You may file one application and send it to multiple pharmacy programs. Most Pharmacy Schools use the PharmCAS (Pharmacy Centralized Application Service) site as a centralized application site.
The choice of an
undergraduate major while preparing for pharmacy school is not especially critical for successful admission, but the selection of certain coursework and the right combination of sciences, social and behavioral sciences and electives is important.
The requirements for each PharmD. program will be significantly different. To be admitted to a PharmD. program, you must have completed at least 3 years of specific professional study. this requirement generally includes courses in:
Most applicants have completed 3 or more years of college before moving on to a Pharm.D. program, although this is not specifically required.
Certain basic requirements must be fulfilled before you can be accepted to pharmacy school. This is a GUIDE only. Students must consult with their advisors AND the appropriate pharmacy schools on a regular basis for revisions to course requirements and to identify and ensure completion of all required courses. These requirements include:
Below are the CMU courses we recommend to meet these requirements:
Some pharmacy schools may have additional courses required or recommended. Review the admission requirements of the pharmacy schools you plan on applying in advance.
All required courses must be taken for a grade. Each school has its own policy regarding AP credit. Usually, AP credit in these areas should be followed with additional upper level work in the discipline including labs.
To further strengthen you application and your ability to succeed in pharmacy school, here are some additional CMU courses you could take:
Pharmacists held about 286,400 jobs in 2012. Pharmacists work in pharmacies, including those in grocery and drug stores. They also work in hospitals and clinics.
Employment of pharmacists is expected to grow by 14 percent between 2012 and 2022, which is faster than the average for all occupations. The increasing numbers of middle-aged and elderly people and scientific advances that lead to new drug products will continue to spur demand for pharmacists. Job prospects should be excellent.
Median annual wages of pharmacists in May 2012 were $116,670.

When your using "inspect the element" to find code is there a way to fine out where that code ( html ) is held. It tells you the name of the css files and line for css but how do you tell what files the html is in?
Many thanks
Hi, hantaah, The HTML is in the file that you are inspecting and possibly right under your cursor.
I'm not inspecting it in the actual file, I'm inspecting it from the firebug inspect element. In the css area it tell your what file that css is in but it doesn't for the html
Yes, but don't you have to have a particular HMTL file open in order to inspect its CSS? I'm probably misunderstanding because you are doing something I've never thought of.
of course but I want to edit the html and want to know what file it is in to edit it, not just edit it in inspect element
There's where I'm getting lost... if you have an html file open, how do you not know what file it's in? UNLESS, maybe the HTML is assembled from php calls and you would like to know which php file a portion is in. Is that what you're talking about? Sorry to be dense.
i'm seeing the html in firebug ( firefox ) by right clicking the web page and inspecting the element. It shows you the html, I don't have any file open, all done from the browser
I'm not sure there is a specific option in firebug that will say "this html file is located in this folder on your server". I could be wrong but I don't think it will show this info. The URL of the page should give you a clue. Usually it won't show the absolute path to the HTML document but it could give you an idea where to start looking.
I'm not sure what you are using to upload files to your website but if you are familiar with an FTP program like Filezilla, you can use it to search your server for an HTML file.
Here is a tutorial on how to do that,
HI, As others have alluded to you if you are inspecting an element on a live page then you must have already navigated to that page and therefore its whereabouts must be known to you (although of course the page may be built with includes or php so you won't know where all fragments came from).
When you inspect an element then you get the css for that element and you can also see the html in that current page that the css refers to. It won't tell you where on your server that page is located but in most cases that would be pretty obvious from the url for most simple sites.
You may need to explain a little more about the problems you are having and maybe we can suggest something else.:)

In recent years, the men and women who've made fresh guacamole a summer mainstay in Southland homes have faced tough competition from cheap imports from Mexico and Chile, water shortages and rising land management costs. Some have been put out of business, while others are barely hanging on.
Now, some growers and scientists say a threat has emerged that could wipe out - or at least significantly damage - the state's $300 million-a-year avocado industry.
The culprit is stenoma catenifer, better known as the avocado seed moth.
Native to South America, the moth - which burrows into the fruit to lay eggs and grow its larvae - is currently wreaking havoc on Peruvian avocado growers. And since the U.S. government began allowing imports of Peruvian avocados in January, growers fear it's just a matter of time before it arrives in the U.S. and begins destroying local crops.
"They don't have any idea of how to deal with it," said Mark Bruce, a Simi Valley avocado grower who is struggling to bring his 68-acre orchard into profitability after 11 years. "If it comes here, it could be the end of the avocado industry in California."
The U.S. Department of Agriculture maintains that existing safety guidelines will protect California's avocados from the Peruvian moth. Currently, all imported Peruvian avocados come from only certified pest-free areas and are inspected upon arrival.
"We believe that the restrictions that are in place are sufficient to protect the U.S. from this pest, otherwise we wouldn't allow the product in," said USDA spokesman Larry Hawkins. "We're not going to wreck U.S. agriculture."
But University of California, Riverside, entomologist Mark Hoddle, who is an expert on the pest, says it's almost inevitable the seed moth will one day makes its way to the United States. Hoddle also agrees with growers that it could devastate state avocado crops.
"Given (imports of) enough fruit from risky areas over a long enough time, (the moth) is likely at some stage to enter California," said Hoddle, who is also the director for UC Riverside's Center for Invasive Species Research.
Between February and April of this year, the U.S. has imported 120,000 pounds of avocados from Peru.
"It is a numbers game," said Hoddle, who is now in Peru studying the moth on a research project funded by the California Avocado Commission. "Large numbers of fruit moving into the same areas over long periods of time increase the chances that it will come in accidentally."
California grows 90 percent of the nation's avocados, which are harvested on 60,000 acres throughout San Diego, Riverside, Ventura, and Santa Barbara counties and in the San Joaquin Valley.
Avocados also rank in the top 10 most valuable Ventura County crops, worth about $63 million a year.
Mark Bruce and his wife Linda are in the thick of their Simi Valley avocado harvest. On a recent day, they inspected some of the day's pick, collected in seven large white bins. Each holds about 1,000 pounds of fruit.
"This is a light picking day," said Mark Bruce, proudly holding up an ideal avocado for market, weighing in at eight ounces. A heavy day can fill anywhere from 12 to 15 bins.
Their kids, Chance, 15 and Skye, 12, root through the crates, throwing out the damaged fruit.
The Bruces and other growers say the government is not paying enough attention to the threat posed by the seed moth from Peru.
"Our voice is not heard very well," said Linda Bruce shaking her head. "It's like that more and more these days."
Avocado pests can cost an individual grower hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. For example, the avocado thrip, common throughout the state, causes $4 million to $9 million in damage to the state's crop annually.
What worries Hoddle and the Avocado Commission is that his research so far in Peru shows that nearly 100 percent of the avocados grown in an interior area of Peru are infested with the seed moth. So far though, he hasn't found the moth in existing certified export orchards, located in the coastal region of Peru.
Pesticides do not seem effective in managing the pest in Central and South America. In commercial orchards in Guatemala, despite heavy spraying, 45 percent of fruit was still infested, often containing multiple larvae. The moth has done similar damage to avocado crops in Brazil, infesting 60 percent of fruit treated with pesticides.
The California Avocado Commission is funding Hoddle's research as a pre-emptive effort to study the pest before it becomes uncontrollable in California.
"It's important to know as much about them as possible beforehand," said Tom Bellamore, president of the California Avocado Commission. "Here in California, we definitely don't want any new pests."
The costs of farming are more than some farmers can bear. In Ventura County, farmland is shrinking at a rate of 600 acres a year. Avocado orchards are also feeling the strain. In San Diego County, avocado farmers are already being driven out of business. A new pest added to the strain may be the tipping point for a large portion of remaining growers.
"It's getting increasingly more costly for farmers," Bellamore said. "That's the nature of farming these days in California and across the U.S."
Not everyone feels that California avocados are in dire straits. Although concerned about the threat posed by the seed moth, Somis avocado grower Tom McGrath feels that the added competition of imported avocados only adds value to the fruit. He sees more competition driving U.S. avocado demand year-round and helping the business overall.
McGrath has been farming for over 30 years, growing and managing lemon and avocado orchards. His company oversees almost 2,000 acres of Ventura County farmland. "I am always the optimist," McGrath said. "It's just the evolution of this business."

Wellington, New Zealand • Here's how Robin Wright sees it: Her 19-year-old daughter Danielle is adrift on the Pacific Ocean but is keeping her spirits up with her six crewmates on their wooden sailboat, the Nina. They're collecting rainwater, rationing food, singing, telling travel stories and planning their next adventures. Heck, Wright figures, by now Danielle may even have gotten married to one of the three young men aboard. After all, the Nina's captain is a registered celebrant.
New Zealand authorities see it very differently: They believe the 70-foot (21-meter) schooner likely sank more than eight months ago after getting battered by a storm as the crew attempted to cross the Tasman Sea from New Zealand to Australia. That's when the boat's crew stopped using their satellite phone. A search turned up no sign of the vessel and they believe there's no real chance any of them are still alive.

In a special meeting on Tuesday, July 19, the Gila River Indian Community's City Council decided to send the decision over the Loop 202 freeway to its community in a public vote, according to Gila River Indian Community spokeswoman Alia Maisonet.
"They felt like this was bigger than the 17 of them," Maisonet said. "This impacts the community and it should go to a vote by the people."
The decision came after the community's Transportation Technical Team presented an updated report on the South Mountain Freeway.
"It was basically a report on the reservation alignment, provided by the Arizona Department of Transportation," Maisonet said. "It was the study they did for us at our request. It included the various impacts, including the environmental, economic, the cultural and the wildlife impacts the freeway has on the land. They provided a report on all those facts and, ultimately, the council opted to send it to referendum."
Maisonet said the Transportation Technical Team's law office has up to 90 days to provide referendum language back to the Gila River City Council. Once that language is chosen the council will set a date for the election.
The decision comes after years of debate over the South Mountain Freeway. The state's original plan called for a deep cut through South Mountain for the freeway that would align with Pecos Road. Many homes and buildings would also be torn down as part of the plan.
Phoenix City Councilman Sal DiCiccio says he worked in the past to gather a group of concerned citizens to urge the state to discuss an alternative with the Gila River Indian Community.
"From that the community said they would entertain a proposal and everything started happening," DiCiccio said. "A year ago there was a zero percent chance. The freeway was going to be built on Pecos. Now, the community has a 50-50 chance of getting it moved."
Chad Blostone, a co-chair of the group DiCiccio brought together, said he's happy with the news. Blostone is a member of the Ahwatukee Foothills Village Planning Committee and a board member of the Foothills Homeowners Association, which would lose land if the freeway was placed on the Pecos Road alignment.
"I think it means that there's still a possibility that the Gila Community will decide that this road on their community is good news to them," Blostone said. "In doing so, that reduces the impact of the road to the Ahwatukee community. It's possible still that the impact that road will have will be significantly reduced by the Gila Community choosing to place it on their land and enjoy all the economic benefits that they'll see with the road placed on their land.
"As long as the Gila River Indian Community is still looking at it, which they are, then there's that opportunity for us to mitigate some of the very serious effects on our community. Anything they're willing to talk about is good for us."
Peggy Neely, a candidate for Phoenix mayor and former chair of Maricopa Association of Governments, said this move is something she has always been pushing for.
"I'm really excited to see this being finalized," Neely said. "This is a huge win not only for Ahwatukee, but for the region. This is something that needed to happen. I'm very excited to hear we were able to get to the terms that we can move forward with."
Though the council's move is good news, DiCiccio warns there is still a long ways to go.
"We're still a long ways away, but we're a lot further than we've ever been at finding a mutual solution that everyone wins," he said. "The taxpayers can win because it's less expensive. The mountain gets saved. All the homes and businesses along Pecos don't have to be torn apart. I have to warn, there will be finality after this vote and our community will finally have an answer."
DiCiccio said the city of Phoenix has no control over what eventually happens. The decision lies with the Gila River Indian Community and with the state of Arizona.
"All we can do as a community is act as one voice," DiCiccio said. "That's all the power we've got."

US sports tycoon Malcolm Glazer has finally succeeded in his goal of owning 75% of Manchester United - enabling him to take complete control of the company.
But he doesn't own all of the club's shares yet. What can minority shareholders in the world's richest football team expect next?
Anything but a quiet life.
Malcolm Glazer's controversial takeover of Manchester United has attracted intense media and public scrutiny.
Those still holding shares in the former English Premiership champions can no longer stop Mr Glazer taking charge at Old Trafford, but they can - at least for now - influence how the company is run.
And that means the story of Mr Glazer's rise to prominence at United isn't quite over yet.
What will Mr Glazer's next step be?
As the owner of 75% of United's shares, Mr Glazer now has the dominant voice on the club's board.
He can take United private - delisting its shares from the London Stock Exchange - and even rewrite the company's articles.
The millions of pounds previously used to pay dividends on shares could be used to service the club's debts.
At this stage, a Glazer-run United would still be expected to hold an annual general meeting, which could provide a focus for those bitterly opposed to his takeover.
Mr Glazer could silence those critics if he makes a formal offer to buy the shares he does not already own.
Should he manage to buy 90% of those shares, then a compulsory buyout would be triggered and anyone holding United equity would be obliged to sell to him.
Is this likely to happen?
Possibly. Mr Glazer secured his controlling interest through a £227.2m, £3-a-share offer to United's two previous biggest shareholders, Irish racing tycoons JP MacManus and John Magnier.
He later secured the shares of Scottish mining entrepreneur Harry Dobson.
The terms of his offer are valid for the remainder of United's shareholders.
And who are they?
A mixed bag of smaller private investors and passionate Manchester United fans, for the most part.
"In these situations there are usually a few 'rump' shareholders who, for whatever reason, don't feel they should agree with the takeover," says Richard Hunter, of Hargreaves Lansdown stockbrokers.
"They become dissenting shareholders, but there isn't much they can do."
Pressure group Shareholders United failed in their attempt to form a group representing 25% of shareholders - a bloc of that size could have been used to halt Mr Glazer's takeover plans.
Many of those who have not actively pursued Mr Glazer's £3-a-share bid are likely to accept it when they receive letters offering to buy their shares, Mr Hunter believes.
What can United's dissenting shareholders expect?
A life on the sidelines, at least as far as running the company is concerned.
"There isn't a great deal you can do if you're a dissenting shareholder," says Mr Hunter, adding that if Mr Glazer manages to force a compulsory buyout then those dissenting shareholders would lose their voice completely.
However, die-hard opponents of Mr Glazer - who are prepared to write off their investment in the company - may be content to remain "a thorn in the side" of the American billionaire, according to one independent sports consultant.
Some analysts believe that Mr Glazer may pause for a breath, rather than strong-arm his way through to full ownership of United.
"He's going to play it very cautiously to start with. There are too many corners of the UK where he's not popular," says Mr Hunter.
Popular or not, in Malcolm Glazer, Manchester United has only one shareholder to answer to now.

lispdoc - results for time
(time form)
|Function: Execute FORM and print timing information on *TRACE-OUTPUT*. On some hardware platforms estimated processor cycle counts are included in this output; this number is slightly inflated, since it includes the pipeline involved in reading the cycle counter -- executing (TIME NIL) a few times will give you an idea of the overhead, and its variance. The cycle counters are also per processor, not per thread: if multiple threads are running on the same processor, the reported counts will include cycles taken up by all threads running on the processor where TIME was executed. Furthermore, if the operating system migrates the thread to another processor between reads of the cycle counter, the results will be completely bogus. Finally, the counter is cycle counter, incremented by the hardware even when the process is halted -- which is to say that cycles pass normally during operations like SLEEP.

There is a train wreck make that a streetcar wreck shaping up at Salt Lake City Hall.
Where will the Sugar House Streetcar line end? And just as important, who gets to make that decision?
Mayor Ralph Becker's administration wants to make that call.
But some City Council members Tuesday said they weren't on board with that dictum.
By year's end, Phase I of the Sugar House Streetcar is scheduled to ply rails east from the TRAX Central Pointe Station at 200 West to McClelland Street (1050 East) along a right of way about 2250 South.
Everyone is in agreement that the line should stretch east another block to Highland Drive. But then what?
The Becker administration wants the Phase II extension to run north along Highland Drive to 2100 South and then continue north on 1100 East to 1700 South near Westminster College.
But Councilman Soren Simonsen favors an alignment heading east along Wilmington or Simpson avenues to 1300 East. Others prefer an alignment that heads north along Highland Drive and then turns east on 2100 South to 1700 East. Both would access Sugar House Park.
Simonsen said he was "frustrated" with the process that led to Becker's preferred alignment.
He said the line should extend directly east up Simpson Avenue through the shopping center that is home to Shopko at 1300 East. Such an alignment, he said, would help boost economic development in the area and better serve east Salt Lake City that has a dearth of mass transit.
However, according to the Becker administration, the consulting firm of Fehr & Peers selected the 1100 East alternative because it maximizes ridership and economic development.
City Transportation Director Robin Hutcheson said the 1100 East alignment would serve development occurring now near Highland Drive and 2100 South. Further, she said public input also favored the 1100 East alignment.
Council members Kyle LaMalfa and Jill Remington Love also appeared to support the 1100 East alignment. Both said the public process had been robust.
But Councilman Luke Garrott said no alignment should be adopted without a comprehensive master plan.
A public hearing on the Sugar House Streetcar line extension is set for 7 p.m. April 23 in room 315 at City Hall, 451 S. State.

Watford's head coach has praised his players for turning the doubts at the start of the season into "certainties" after his side reached the halfway point of the campaign back in the play-off zone.
Saturday's 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest lifted the Hornets back into the top six with 37 points, the club's highest tally at the midway point of a campaign since 2007/08.
The Forest win may have been a first in three but it continued an upward curve in form for Gianfranco Zola's men, who have lost just one of their last ten games on the back of an uncertain start to the season that saw them lose seven of their opening 13 matches.
That followed a summer of upheaval at Vicarage Road, with the takeover by the Pozzo family leading to Zola's appointment in place of now Burnley manager Sean Dyche and an influx of new signings, primarily on loan.
The Italian has also changed the Hornets' playing style and he has consistently admitted to being surprised at the progress his team have made since the beginning of the season in August.
"That is a thing I pointed out many times considering the difficulties," Zola said on Monday when he reflected on the first half of the campaign. "We had a lot of doubts and reservations because of the number of players, because of the number of foreigners and because this and because this of that, so we had a lot of things that we were not sure were going to work out but the application and cooperation of the players has been fantastic.
"I'm proud to say they changed all the points that we were unsure of and made them certainties and that is very, very good. The players want to make it work and they're doing it."
Asked if there was a game or incident that he regards as a turning point, the Chelsea legend responded: "Huddersfield was the turning point. When we played Huddersfield and won away from home against them [3-2], I think that was the moment in which the team changed the season completely and also the change of system [to 3-5-2 from 4-3-3] has helped a lot in that sense."
Watford's improved form over the past two months, in which they have taken 21 points from a possible 30, means they will start 2013 either in, or just outside, the play-off zone and in a position to attack the second half of the campaign in confident mood.
The head coach said: "It's definitely working in the right direction and we are pleased with that, although as I said before this is a Championship in which you cannot afford to lose attention, to lose focus and concentration because it is a difficult season.
"It is very, very clear in my mind and the players' minds, the players are doing very well but we are on an improving moment and we are not yet where we want to be.
"We are getting better and better but there is still a lot of work to do so we have to make sure we keep the concentration."

Watching, Prescribing - Poem by Doug Blair
Just my street
And the green bags are curbside
The roaring truck soon to visit.
That marmalade cat two doors down
Cocked on the grassy knoll
Bird-lunch in focus.
That father laid off
Trimming the lawn
To keep from drying up.
New car, shiny black Hyundai
Getting the oohs and aahhs
From the envious younger set.
No one addressing
The monthly payments.
Young boy
Kicking the stones
Almost going in reverse
As afternoon classes beckon.
Retired nurse
Still loves the smell
Of clean sheets
Hanging some out to flutter.
Postperson bunching
Her next mail drop
Holding government issue
Invoices, sad news
Or other gossip in her hot, speckled hands.
And few will stop
And smile with cheer
And offer the "thumbs up."
But still apparently
Fellow travelers
On my street.

Sushia Izakaya & Bar, Perth's newest addition to the already vastly populated Japanese restaurant scene, was the dinner target for my girlfriend Samara and I.
Don't get me wrong, I love Japanese food, it has the ability to really drag you out of your comfort zone, surprise you with combinations of flavours and textures you would have otherwise never considered putting in your mouth.
I'm also pretty handy with the chopsticks, so it gives me a little chance to show off.
But, it does feel as though there is one on every corner these days, doesn't it? Also, let's be honest, they all live in the shadow of Nobu. Or do they...?
Trying to actually locate Sushia was the first test of our night.
Being the male I was charged with the reading of the map to get us to our dinner destination and when I say "map" I clearly mean Google Maps.
However even the masterminds at Google were unable to make this a straight forward process.
After a couple of aimless laps of the Terrace, and a moment where I actually considered swallowing my pride and handing the reins to the missus, we found it. (You know the staircase out the front of The Print Hall? Walk down it!).
We were greeted upon arrival by the very lovely Katie, our maître d for the night, who showed us to our table.
As we were being guided through, I was very excited to see the open-style kitchen that spanned the length of the wall, providing most of the light for the dimly-lit restaurant.
While I'm not a massive fan of actually cooking myself, watching skilled chefs at work is one of my favourite pastimes and a timely flame from the Robata grill sent everyone's eyes flashing towards the kitchen.
From my experience with Japanese menus, often the best dishes can be lost in translation or chosen behind things you are already comfortable with.
My advice is to go omakase (don't be too impressed, that is about as far as my Japanese goes), which is a Japanese phrase, "I'll leave it to you". Basically, chef's choice. So that's what we did.
Not knowing what is on its way every time the bell from the kitchen rings across the restaurant floor is exciting. Especially when the dishes at Sushia are so aesthetically amazing, the not knowing what it actually is until explained really adds to the experience.
To say we gave the menu a real run would be an understatement. We opened with oysters three ways (ponzu, ikura salsa and spicy relish) followed by assorted sashimi with pickled ginger, spider maki soft shell crab rolled with katsura daikon, pork belly twice-cooked in garlic miso, grilled tooth fish marinated in saikyo and duck on a banana leaf with marmalade and smoked truffles. They were all fantastic.
The real show-stoppers though were the Japanese scallops with creamy uni betayaki, which with the contrasting textures of the soft scallop and the crispy thin pastry, were out of this world.
The Wagyu beef infused with truffle oil and miso comes out covered by a bowl that is released on arrival, allowing the smoke beneath to escape. It was very decadent and definitely recommended.
But our ultimate pick of the night was, without doubt, the king prawns with truffle and yuzu.
The theatre of it all was nearly as good as the dish tasted - nearly. The prawns are brought to you on their own little grill with a citrus infused flame burning up through the dish which you have to wait to self-extinguish to consume.
It is worth the wait though. By this time I was almost ready to be rolled out the door after a big night with the chopsticks, however we couldn't help but ask for a second helping.
The atmosphere in Sushia is great. Although it was a school night, the bar section had a few occupants and seemed as if it would be a great place for some after work (or season!) drinks.
While Sushia is not exactly cheap, it is a lot easier on the hip pocket than Nobu and in many ways just as good. This shouldn't be surprising given that three of the chefs formally worked at Nobu in Perth.
Finding Sushia may not have been straight-forward, I guess that was the theme of the night though - not so straight-forward food, done really well.
Looking forward to a return visit.

Just Shagging - The lazy TTCers heaven, this is Shaggers Corner, Part 11(1000 Posts)
(sorry I know that's awful but seriously, can you think of anything else that rhymes with "eleven"?!)
Ladies, leave your OPKs at the door, and settle in for part 11 of JSing!
Fred rules;
1. Thou shalt shag as much as humanly possible in order to get upduffed.
2. Thou shalt not partake of OPKs, temping, or charting.
3. Thou shalt keep symptom spotting to a minimum.
4. Thou shalt share and [tea] with your fredmates where needed.
JSing lingo;
ERTD = Evil Red Tide of Dooooooommmmmmm. Or AF to most others.
Pant snot = Egg white cervical mucus.
Doing a kitten = Getting upduffed soon after joining (warning: may induce in other posters).
Viroid = This is you, dear poster. The reason for this is a closely guarded secret, known only to....er....well, nobody as far as we can tell!
POAS = Pee On A Stick (of the pregnancy detecting kind, not from a tree). Also known as PIAR (Pee In A Ramekin - cos we're posh birds innit).
Shagging like something = JSing like a teenage nymphomaniac.
Giving a hooya = Giving a much needed slap to a fellow poster in danger of slipping into ttc obsession.
The link to Part 10 is here.
The link to the latest grads thread is here.
So don those shag capes, we have standards to maintain - Part 10 saw an amazing 9 BFPs, including one set of twins! So - what are you still doing here? GET SHAGGING!!
Waves...Chris the bassist (AKA Wolstenbeast) has 6 kids. He has. fertility god status amongst Muse fans.
If you look at the photos on my profile, there is a photo my DH took at the gig on 30.09 and immediately tweeted saying he had seen Chris' impregnation rays in action.
Meanwhile, I'm standing next to my DH with sperm meeting egg. Our story is conception took place at the Muse gig thanks to Chris! It's an ace story :-)
Thanks for lots of shoulder lending....I've even suggested today that we have a Halloween party (just the two of us;)) tonight as I had plenty of party tricks up my sleeve! He said he's off to football and then has a football match to watch. :-/ here's hoping that he's up for it after. In fact I'm on CD12 so am I right in thinking this is a good day????
Good on you Frog - glad you're not giving up. Halloween party for two sounds fun. I have no idea if CD12 is right, but I'd go with it anyway. I'm sorry for you that he wasn't really up for it, but like you said, maybe that will change. If it doesn't, then you can have it out with him.
I would be standing by the radio
in the kitchen haw hee haw but off out to my friend's tonight so will have to have a go after maybe using the catch-up facility, so to speak!
Hi All. Quick one as I'm about to leave work so I havent read thread
I'm on CD24. Last night I hadn't uncomfortable cramping for about 2 hours. I though ERTD was going to show up early but nothing yet?! I've had head ache and achey boobage for about a week now.... could it be...????!!!! AAAHHHHHHH. birthday on so wodering if I should test (BFP/ERTD due Sunday tho)
Hello laydees. Can I join? Had every bit of kit going when I ttc ds (18mo), and frankly can't be arsed with all the opk's etc this time. This looks more like my kind of Fred.
Is there an initiation?
Even if there is an initiation ding, if u read back through the posts, you'll see that no matter what it is, I failed!! Initiation is not my thing, lol. Welcome!! X
Welcome ding....really friendly fred
Thank you! Seems very friendly. Haven't read all the way from the beginning yet - 900 messages will take some time
Frog, if it's any consolation I'm pretty sure if I hadn't fallen so quickly, I would have had EXACTLY the same issues as you. I don't know what the answer is but I DID promise to hold your hand have a glass of for you and one for me too.
Hi ladies! Just a super quick check-in from NJ where I have no power but finally mobile phone service. We were very lucky compared to others on the coast. Thinking good thoughts for all of you. I will catch up properly once the power is back on. Don't be too disappointed in me, but it is WAY too cold for JSing - hopefully we made our hurricane baby before the heat and lights went out
Hi Red glad you're safe and good luck with hurricane baby
Welcome Ding my DS is 19 months, it's a fab age isn't it? Although there's a part of me thinking we are mad, terrible twos, potty training and hoping to throw a newborn into the mix?!?!?
33 I'd say test tomorrow. When's your birthday? Anything nice planned for it?
MrsBri have just had a nosy at your fertility god pic, but was distracted as your wedding dress was gorgeous! Don't like Muse, so think I need to find another fertility god to worship
how many kids does the singer from My Chemical Romance have??
Frog I think you need to have a Big Chat (yes it's with capitals) to find out what's going on with DP, how sure are you that he wants to TTC? Do you think that it's just because he isn't used to you initiating things, so he's not picking up on your hints?
Evil evil ERTD has turned up for me last night, only 10 days late had been peeing on something every few days and getting BFN's so I knew I wasn't likely to be upduffed, can only presume my body is all messed up from being unwell last month. Ah well, a few more days and I can
jump DH have beautiful baby-producing love making
Thanks everyone for the and kind wishes about my friend, it really means a lot
Ah, that's a bugger, Rockchick :-/ At least you were mentally expecting it though. Fx to next cycle.
And thank you! It looked even better on the day with hair and make up done. I wouldn't have wanted to be any more pregnant though, as it was TIGHT! Don't think I'd even get in it now, and I'm only 6+5.
I'm sure we can find someone you like with loads of kids! Our wedding DJ played Teenagers...we danced and sang like loons :-)
<considers not liking rock anymore due to lack of worship for the band-god that is Muse......decides she is mostly forgiven based on excellent alternative provided in MCR>
I think he does have kids actually, and he is hot although I've never been able to fully get on board with fancying someone named Gerard...! Sorry the witch got you rock, well done for seeing the silver lining though, and an extra month's JSing
red glad to hear you're all safe over there, the pictures I've seen look horrific stay warm and dry!
Welcome ding <waves> good effort on reading the whole thread back - not sure 900 posts of our waffling will an exciting read make!
33 ooh sounds exciting fx for you then! Keep us posted!
to everyone else, sorry if I've missed anyone am on phone app and can't scroll back
and have memory like a sieve
Ooh and a pinch and a punch for the first of the month
rock birthday tomorrow! James bond and a meal with h2b then pub saturday from 3!? Kid friendly pub so afternoon will be mainly families. Our friends have lots of kids, latest is boy 4 months who is just lush. Probably should test saturday in case. Would be amazing if i get bfp but akward for birthday pub drinks. I never not drink in pubs so will be soooo obvious if im not on birthday. Test might say bfn if too early? Happy thursday ladies! I had better get up for work.
Was just gona come on and moan that yet again DP steered well clear again last night, but then has just initiated a quickie before work. Wtf. I can't work him out! I'm getting ov symptoms so fx but still think I might try my luck tonight too, this is CD13. Is there such a thing as too much Dtd? I know that's rich coming from me!! Hmmm maybe not tonight but tomorrow. Feel free to hooya!
Hey frog from what I understand
what I am desperate to believe there is no such thing as too much DTDing. Apparently it makes more swimmers or something, the more you do it?! Anyway, that's the line I am taking with DH.
Happy birthday for tomorrow 33 and red, really pleased to hear you are safe and sound.
Welcome ding
Right, hugely busy day ahead, but at least it will be an excuse for me to jump DH when I get home. Was chatting to a girl at work who has taken the same tack with her DH. Hoping for a mini-office baby boom following the stress of the past few weeks!
Hi all. I was on this thread earlier under a different name... End of ERTD today, definitely getting copper coil taken out later today or tomorrow morning, lots of shagging ahead...
Last two cycles have been weird (this one was very short, previous one was so unusually long that I went to get checked if coil was still there!) but otherwise have been really regular and have had strong pant snot right in the middle (but I haven't kept note of what day it usually appears).
Ps also a Muse fan.
Argghh - really annoying - I keep getting logged out for no apparent reason this morning! Second time I've typed this.
Welcome Ding and TenTon! A very friendly Fred here.
Red - glad you are okay and hope your power is restored soon.
33 - sounds promising! How exciting! Good luck.
Rock - sorry about the ERTD but hopefully next cycle will be the one for you.
I am not sure if I am OV or not. Had lots of whitish-looking PS yesterday, but because of super-long ERTD I have no idea what is meant to be happening when. I haven't used OPKs before either so I don't know when it usually happens. I'm also not very confident with the whole PS thing, so I just have to go for it every other day - yay! Managed a quickie before bed last night, so pleased and DH was very happy too!
P.S. did anyone listen to Muse in concert last night? Was it any good?
When you get the cramping in one side (the mittlesch something) does anyone know if that's too late for jsing?? Also, if I Dtd this morning....will there be swimmers available if I Dtd tonight too? Stupid question I know. Blush. Xx
I watched it Bearface...good but short :-) I'm seeing them in Manchester tonight though!
And the pain can come before, during and after OV, frog, so just get shagging. And there will be some, just not as many.
<delurks> to say frog apparently when you get Mittelschmerz it might be to early, too late, or just right. You can't trust it as a guide. BUT I dtd like crazy this month when I had mittelschmerz and got a BFP, so totally worth a try.
Very lucky for me actually as apparently I ovulate very very early in my cycle, and would never have known without
searing ovulation pain mittelschmerz.
Good luck all.
Welcome ding <waves> and happy shagging! And welcome back Truck
Ooh too much going on around here, I can't keep up! Sorry Rock for ERTD.
Glad you are ok red
Also glad you got some action frog
Kitten I am sadly no muse fan either, do I get binned off the Fred?
hopefully I shag enough to make up for it
JSing is getting out of hand in our household. Sorry if this is annoying to those of you who have the opposite problem, but DP is insatiable! Between that and constantly wanting me to PIAR, I think he just really really wants a baybee... Night off tonight though as I have a 10pm conference call
I'm glad about the action too hooya!! Woo!
Tmi I know but I text to tell DP about shaky leg syndrome (something he knows I get after Dtd!!) blush.... And I suggested I get another leg to match!! Too pushy?? We really need to b Dtd like crazy at the mo but I want to tread carefully
I don't think that's too pushy at all, frog - after all, you're only suggesting something that's completely normal and natural (or should be). I think it's just very hard to take the initiative if you're not used to it, so you're bound to wonder how far you can go for a while. Good luck - I feel for you.

Hi! I wanted to ask you if you could make a Buizel mod over Tidus?
hay please tutorial for dlc and general in video no entiendo nada
Yup, I'll let you know when you have finished more of interesting model mods, you can ask me which slots and bytes you'd want for me to offer before generating a new dlc for yourself. :]
I thought you would be mad at me for taking your slots away without letting you know while making proper dlcs for some modder's model mods.
I will always update the fixed DLC pack when there are more of anyone's new upcoming model mods including yours, as well fixing yours following the digits for controller files as what it is in agl's pre-dlc list.
I want to do that, but I'm not entirely sure how importing exmode models work, i first want to get sonic done first, then later get super sonic done.
Yeah, he's almost done, he should be out within the next week or so, depends on whatever free time i have from school
I just remedied my inbox, and no problem!

New York county to withhold gun permit info
NEW YORK — Authorities in a suburban county north of New York City said on Tuesday they will refuse to release names of local gun permit holders to a newspaper that has been publishing the identities of thousands of license-holding residents.
Putnam County Clerk Dennis Sant said he will defy a request for information about pistol permit holders from the White Plains, N.Y.-based Journal News, which has been under criticism for publishing thousands of such identities already.
"There is the rule of law, and there is right and wrong and the Journal News is clearly wrong," Sant said in a statement. "I could not live with myself if one Putnam pistol permit holder was put in harm's way, for the sole purpose of selling newspapers."
The Journal News first published a map listing thousands of pistol permit-holders in Westchester and Rockland counties, just north of New York City, on Dec. 24.
The newspaper's editors said they sought the information upon the Dec. 14 shooting deaths of 26 children and adults at Sandy Hook Elementary, which has sparked nationwide debate about gun control.
Angered, state gun-owner groups have called for an advertising boycott of the newspaper until it takes the map and identities off its website.
The newspaper, owned by the Gannett Co., sought the information under the state's Freedom of Information law. It says the identities are a matter of public record.
Putnam County officials had said they were compiling the names for the newspaper but said instead they will not deliver the information.
The county clerk said he has received hundreds of phone calls urging him not to give the information to the paper.
The county clerk, Putnam County Executive MaryEllen Odell and other elected officials were slated to appear on Thursday at a news conference declaring their intentions. Also set to appear is state Sen. Greg Ball, a Republican from Patterson, N.Y., who has said he will introduce legislation to keep permit information private except to prosecutors and police.

I wrote The Story of Gus on March 15, 2014.
On Wednesday, May 25, our buddy began
sneezing and showing signs of what we
thought were a feline cold.
On Thursday morning, he couldn't breathe
through his nose and began gasping
for air by breathing through his mouth.
Off to our vet we went.
I was thinking respiratory infection and so was the vet. But after 3 rounds of steroids, which usually always work by opening the bronchial airway, Gus was still unable to breath through his nose.
Dr. Kate did a CBC, which checks the blood cell count and a Chem 17, which checks internal organ function-liver, kidneys, pancreas.
Everything was normal.
In fact, for the age of Gus, our vet was impressed
with these test results.
A chest x-ray showed his lungs were totally clear.
After all these tests, and the rounds of steroids,
Dr. Kate began to ponder that something was actually
blocking his ability to breathe by way of nasal cavity.
A skull x-ray proved that Gus had a tumor in his nose.
It grew fast, as Gus had no symptoms until 72 hours before this.
At 6pm on Thursday, we arrived at our vet's office.
We are so fortunate to live less than a 1/2 mile from here!
Everyone was long gone except Dr. Kate.
We spent time with Gus loving on him.
We thanked him for all the field mice he caught over the years!
We laughed about the time he brought home a live squirrel....
and ran in the house with it! Oy.
How glad we were that he 'found' us 7 years ago.
We told him how much he was loved.
And then Gus left us to begin his new job of "Patrolling Heaven".
J buried Gus between the pond and a Bradford Pear tree.
The perfect spot he loved for laying in the shade and frog watching!
Thank you so much to Dr. Kate.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Never wanting to come in the house,
the first few years he lived outside.
make it his mission to patrol the property.
He had a presence they didn't want to mess with!
|I am in love with the old barn!
He always walks with such purpose....
Stopping to check out anything that fluttered,
eyeing a squirrel who was chattering in a tree,
job behind even when he isn't on duty.
|Wind chimes in the Sunday sun outside our bedroom window.
But then he decided to get the most of his day off.
He rolled in the dirt.
He chased things that fluttered in the wind,
he flipped his tail back and forth while eyeing a squirrel,
and he meowed back at that meowing family member.
Life is pretty darn good for Gus.
he climbs up on the little table that
sits between the rockers on the front porch.
And he stares into the living room window
waiting to grab our attention to
let us know he is ready to come back inside!
He leaves behind lovely little paw prints and nose prints
all over the window!
And so every few days, I fulfill my duties and clean the window!
Gus has slowed down a bit in the last year.
We suspect that he is in his late teens now.
He doesn't stay out all night anymore,
preferring a little comfort.
And he has claimed a very coveted spot on the couch,
used for napping and viewing the outside world.
No other feline ever lays there.
Obviously we don't have any idea
what life was like for Gus before he found us.
But as long as he keeps putting nose
and paw prints on the window....
I will happily clean them off!
I hope your week was great.
I would love for you to read about the
Feral Cat Program in Tennessee.
We have participated in this many times.
I hope your state has a similar program.

Abhishek Bachchan might be one of the busiest actors of the industry, but the man definitely knows his personal responsibilities. Abhishek, who is now a proud father of eight-month-old daughter Aaradhya Bachchan, said that he doesnt prefer to show off his baby to the world.
Talking to PTI, Abhishek said, I am not comfortable with that, I dont need to show her off. She is not an item that she has to be put up to display. She is a child and Aishwarya and I would like her to grow up as normal as possible.
Abhishek further adds that he wants Aaradhya to grow up as a confident woman. I want her to walk with confidence, not like she rules the world but like she doesnt care about the world, he said. Abhi also admits that since, Aaradhya is born in a star family, he perfectly understands a commoners curiosity to have a glimpse of the child.
