Through October 13, 2013 - Katonah

Remix explores the impact of collage on artistic and cultural expression and gathers together the diverse fragments of a rich artistic tradition.

Rockefeller, founder of Standard Oil, whose business acumen made him the richest man in America in his day. He later became the country's first great philanthropist. By his death in 1937, he had given away more than half his fortune through various philanthropic programs. Visitors can choose from four tours: Classic, Grand, Timesaver, and Selected Highlights.

Exhibition: Six Ladders - Katonah Museum of Art
Through April 21, 2014 - Katonah
Bright swaths of vibrant colors transform the Katonah Museum of Art's exterior in its newest outdoor exhibition, "Six Ladders," by artist Andrea Lilienthal. Lilienthal created a series of giant bamboo ladders for the Museum's stately Sculpture Garden that are whimsical and enigmatic; their brilliant colors electrify the natural surroundings.
Five ladders, with their cheerful colors and playful patterns, lean against the Museum's enormous spruce trees in various positions and at different angles. On the building's facade, a sixth, 30-foot ladder extends just short of the roofline - its form and ribbons of color energizing the wall and lending sculptural dimension to the flat expanse. Each of the ladders are hand-constructed from sturdy commercial bamboo, harvested in China, and painted with high-gloss outdoor enamel paint from Holland. Their surfaces are smooth and reflective, in contrast to the course-textured tree bark.
According to Katonah Museum of Art Curator Ellen Keiter, "These are not functional structures - their bottom rungs are too high to mount and the ladders fail to reach the top of their intended destinations. These are instead beautiful works of art; Andrea Lilienthal responds to the inherent geometry of ladders and the repetitive rhythm of their rungs. She finds beauty in their simple, minimalist construction."
"Lilienthal's ladders instill a sense of wonder and suggest that seemingly unreachable goals can be attained," she says.
Keiter explains that bamboo is a hollow-stemmed, woody plant that "bows, sways, and splits, so slight imperfections, even substantial cracks, add distinctive character to each ladder. No two ladders are painted the same, yet their similarly saturated hues coalesce into a lively visual harmony."
She adds, "The bands of luscious color wrap around the bamboo like candy confections, and bright confetti patterns alternate with stark black-and-white designs. A causal link exists between the artificial colors and the natural bamboo. On one ladder, Lilienthal painted white rings around the growth nodes of the bamboo; on another, the nodes demarcate the lengths of painted blue and orange sections."
Says Lilienthal: "These magnificent and mysterious trees [at the Katonah Museum of Art], whose tops are not even visible, dwarf the people and furniture below. In response to their super scale, I chose the ladder, a form with human scale and multiple readings: utilitarian ancient, mythic, and universal. The severe and stately trees support the bamboo ladders in an implied partnership; rooted and stable, the trees assist the ladders in their attempt to ascend. But ultimately, how do you mount an 80-foot Norwegian spruce tree? My answer was to climb it with imagination, affirming our connection to the natural world."
Lilienthal has used bamboo in her artistic practice for several years. In earlier installations, she aligned multiple painted, wrapped, or taped bamboo poles along a wall - works awash in color, but still relatable in size. However, her current exhibition at the Katonah Museum of Art is in keeping with the majesty, diameter, and spacing of the giant spruce trees.
Adding to the intrigue of this exhibition are enlarged photographs of the Garden's spruce trees displayed in the Museum's two west windows adjacent to the lone 30-foot ladder. On first impression, the images appear as reflections. In this way, Lilienthal reinforces the relationship between the ladders and the trees while further playing with the viewers' perceptions and expectations.
Historically, ladders carry rich and universal associations. In many faiths and fables, ladders are a symbol of ascent, of travel, of reaching upward. In modern times, they represent progress and growth, allowing us to reach higher than we would otherwise be able to go. Ladders symbolize elevation: from darkness to light, from ignorance to knowledge, and from the material to the spiritual. They are featured in art from prehistoric cave paintings to contemporary times. Jacob's Ladder, the metaphysical passage between heaven and earth, is mentioned in the first book of the Bible, and is represented in such disparate media as Renaissance paintings and popular
video games. There is a popular African-American spiritual, "We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder," Eric Carl's beloved children's picture book, "Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me," and innumerable colloquialisms regarding "the ladder of success."
On view through April 21, 2014 during Museum hours: Sundays: 12-5pm; Tuesdays through Saturdays: 10am-5pm. Closed Mondays.

I have been playing WoW for several years and have been trying to update my old macros for the new content. My knowledge about macros is limited to assembling pieces that other more knowledgeable people create. I have one of each of the classes and enjoy playing them all. For each character I have tried to set up two macros, the first is a pre-combat and at a distance and is mainly to get me buffed and ready. The second is to actually start the fight and get me off to a good start. The two macros below are the ones I currently use for my Fury Warrior and are typical of the other ones for the other characters. The script and console commands are to avoid needless feedback from those spells which were not off cooldown. Any advice would certainly be appreciated.
First macro
#showtooltip Charge
/script UIErrorsFrame:Hide()
/console Sound_EnableSFX 0
/use 13
/use 14
/cast Recklessness
/cast Berserker Rage
/cast Die by the Sword
/cast Storm Bolt
/console Sound_EnableSFX 1
/cast Charge
Second macro
/cast Skull Banner
/cast Colossus Smash
/cast Hamstring
/cast Shield Wall
/cast Raging Blow
/cast Heroic Strike
/use Potion of Mogu Power
/cast Disarm

Hi guys.
/cast [@mouseover,exists,nodead][@target,nodead][] Shadowstep
I want to add to this macro a shift:mod to Shadowstep on my focus target.
How do I go about doing that?
- - - Updated - - -Code:/run local function toggle(v)SetCVar(v,1-GetCVar(v))end toggle("UnitNameOwn")toggle("UnitNameNPC")toggle("fctFriendlyHealers")toggle("fctSpellMechanicsOther")
put it in there at whichever priority it should be. highest priority is farthest left.
also your set of empty brackets there is redundant.
[QUOTE=pnutbutter;22795584]Hmm... I've been doing a lot of reading on this; Why use "/run local function" rather than "/script local " ? and what are the (v) characters doing? Sorry to keep needling this, I just want to understand this better.Code:/run local function toggle(v)SetCVar(v,1-GetCVar(v))end toggle("UnitNameOwn")toggle("UnitNameNPC")toggle("fctFriendlyHealers")toggle("fctSpellMechanicsOther")
For instance, I have read this is all you might need for showing and hiding player/NPC names... ?
/console UnitNameOwn (0/1)
/console UnitNameNPC (0/1)
/console UnitNameFriendlyPlayerName (0/1)
/console UnitNameFriendlyPetName (0/1)

it's the function parameter. I defined the function named "toggle" that takes a parameter "v" and then acts on that parameter.and what are the (v) characters doing?yes, if you're doing one-time or static operations. you can make two macros, one that turns all the CVars on, and one that turns all the CVars off. if you only want one macro you have to use Lua to set the CVars dynamically./console UnitNameOwn (0/1)
/console UnitNameNPC (0/1)
/console UnitNameFriendlyPlayerName (0/1)
/console UnitNameFriendlyPetName (0/1)
Question for you fine folks:
I want to have a basic macro for my pets that works in both BM and SV that should work something like this:
In BM spec, with no pet it should call my favorite Spirit Beast, Taylorswift.
In SV spec, with no pet it should call my Sporebat, Waynus.
With any pet out, it should cast Mend Pet, and if my pet is dead it should cast Revive Pet.
What I have is this:
/cast [nopet][spec:1] Call Taylorswift
/cast [nopet][spec:3] Call Waynus
/cast [@pet,nodead] Mend Pet
/cast [target=pet, dead] Revive Pet
What is wrong here, macro junkies?
The first two conditionals should have a comma separating them instead of being in separate brackets. Also, you can put all the /casts in one line.
PS: Be aware that the spec:X conditional uses dual spec indices, not specialization indices. spec:1 is your first dual spec, while spec:2 is your second dual spec.Code:#showtooltip /cast [@pet,nodead]Mend Pet; [@pet,dead]Revive Pet; [nopet,spec:1]Call Taylorswift; Call Waynus
Hot damn, PNut, you're smart!
"v" is just a variable name. If you called it "bobby" the code would work exactly the same.
Hello all, I just want a warlock macro that will tie in CoE to another spell, and not waste time recasting if its already up on the target. I'm destro right now.

Dear alli'm a new for .htaccess i try to read the book it took me 5days ago and still not understand what is .htaccess or i read not right the book or whatever i just want to hide my url here my problemi used php for my own website designed database with mysql i designed my menu in database so the index.php it don't have any problem thenthe news page it display like thishttp://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=1the menu.php it query my database field name ph_sc_menu_id=1 i don't want it to display like this i want it displayhttp://localhost/news/so how i gonna do? do i used mod_rewrite i try to do like this
Options +FollowSymlinksRewriteEngine OnRewriteRule ^news(/)$ http://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9 [R=301,NC,L]
but it not working pls help thank advance
What you're asking can only be done with a RewriteMap - some way to tell Apache which URI should receive which value of ph_sc_menu_id. IMHO, it would be better for you to have a read of the tutorial linked in my signature (including test server setup, regex through sample code for typical problems).
What you should have done before starting your website is contemplate a navigation scheme. I would have picked one with the pages being extensionless file names which can then be handled by mod_rewrite (sent to the correct script for handling - your use of a database merely to select a page is a bit out of the ordinary (unless a CMS, of course).
David K. LynnThank so much i will read your Tutorial Article
David K.LynnThanks so much for take time to read my question now i have problem, i read your tutorial at test now i found the problem with my local server when i create 3 file as you command my local server it not working properly i used WAMP SERVER on window 7 32bit here the message honestly i'm family with Apache or Unix ======================================================Not FoundThe requested URL /test.php[L] was not found on this server.======================================================
thanks for you help
Sorry, I didn't understand whether your problem was resolved or not.
From what you've posted about receiving a 404, it's likely that you've not placed test.php in WAMP's htdocs or www (or equivalent) folder. It should be co-located with the .htaccess file you're using with your mod_rewrite code.
Dear David K. Lynn,i found the problem now it working and still read your tutorial.
Thanks so much
Dear DK why my mod_rewrite it not working? here my .htaccess file
Options +FollowSymlinksOptions -IndexesRewriteEngine OnRewriteRule ^test\.html$ test.php [L] #this 1 working perfectlyRewriteRule ^menu.php/([0-9]+)/$ menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=$1 [NC,L] #this not working
it still display http://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9 in my url the same before so what the problem?Regard,Heng
The only things wrong are the use of menu.php as a directory and the No Case flag in the RewriteRule (URIs are case sensitive). I would have dropped the .php after menu in the regex to show that you don't want Apache to serve menu.php just yet (but that requires you to account for the change in directory level for your relative links).
If you've requested the "normal URI" as you've displayed above, it's because it's your job as webmaster NOT to create that link but to use menu/9/ (I also loathe trailing slashes like this) which would work (with corrected regex as suggested above).
Please RE-read the tutorial as this should have been obvious.
Tip: To see whether the problem is within your mod_rewrite or menu.php script, use [R=301,L] for your flags ... just remove the R=301, before uploading to a production server.
DK,i have no idea now because my .htaccess fileOptions +FollowSymlinksOptions +IndexesRewriteEngine onRewriteRule ^test\.html$ test.php [L] #woking RewriteRule ^news\.html$ /menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9 [L] #are not workingRewriteRule ^tips\.html$ /menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=10 [L]RewriteRule ^reviews\.html$ /menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=11 [L]
it still display url http://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9how i gonna do?
Did you try
That will show the redirection. Removing the R=301 will hide an INTERNAL redirection. It is YOUR job to create links in your new format then use mod_rewrite to redirect back to a file (and query string) that Apache can serve. Again, RE-read the tutorial linked in my signature.
Once you've gotten that far, then know that the four simple redirections you have would be better (faster) made with a mod_alias Redirect statement.
DKi have no idea now i need to host but i'm afraid of because i used to have someone stuck my web that why i worried now those web was closed i still have problem the same way i don't understand.Regard,Heng
I'm sorry but your last post made no sense to me. I thought we'd resolved your issues earlier. Please have another read of the mod_rewrite tutorial then, if you need good hosting, I'd recommend you look seriously at WebHostingBuzz.com or WebHostingBuzz.co.uk (the UK version if you prefer to host in England vs US) as they are an excellent hosting company.
Dear DK,Happy New Year!!sorry for i made no sense to you because those website it dead, now my new website it gonna publish soon but i still have problem with .htaccess that's why i keep asking you sorry about that, today i watch the tutorial at youtube now my htaccess it work, but it still have 1 small problem below it's the problem hope you give me some light
Options +FollowSymlinksRewriteEngine onRewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} news/RewriteRule news/ http://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9
if i key in my url box http://localhost/news/ it workingbut if i click on the menu it still display http://localhost/menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9 so any solution for this? because the menu it calling from my database below it what i calling from my database using php
while($row = $statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)){ echo '
'.$row['ph_sc_menu_name'].'
'; }
thank DKRegards,Heng
Hi Heng!
Thanks! I hope you're having a great New Year, too!
The problem you have is that the redirection is absolute - as far as Apache knows, you've redirected to a DIFFERENT domain. Because there is no need to repeat the domain with an internal redirection, just leave off the http://localhost/. Then, there is no reason to duplicate the regex which is (and should be) in the RewriteRule with your RewriteCond so just eliminate the RewriteCond statement (it's redundant - which makes its use wasteful of your Apache resources).
In other words, all you need is ...
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule news/$ menu.php?ph_sc_menu_id=9 [L]
... which can be transferred to your production website without changing the domain name!

Testicles should move down from the abdomen into the scrotum before birth. Some boys are born with 1 or both testicles still inside the abdomen or groin. This is called undescended testicles . Orchiopexy is a surgery to lower the testicle(s) into the scrotum.
|Undescended Testicles
|© 2009 Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Reasons for Procedure
Orchiopexy is done to treat undescended testicles. The surgery may improve fertility. Persons with undescended testicles also have a higher risk of developing cancer later in life. Having the testicle in the scrotum makes it easier to check for early signs of cancer.
Possible Complications
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your child's doctor will review potential problems, like:
- Movement of the testicle back up into groin after surgery
- Damage to or loss of the testicle
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Reaction to anesthesia
- Injury to surrounding structures
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your child's doctor will do the following before the surgery:
- Physical exam
- Imaging, blood, and urine tests
- Discuss the anesthesia being used and the risks of surgery
Talk to the doctor about your child's medications or any recent illnesses. You may be asked to have your child stop or start certain medications before surgery.
Other things to keep in mind before the procedure include:
- Bring special toys, books, and comfortable clothing for your child.
Your child will need to avoid eating for a period of time before surgery.
- For children younger than 1 year, it is often recommended that they do not eat after midnight the night before the surgery.
- Clear liquids, such as breast milk, water, and clear juices, may be allowed up to 2 hours before the procedure.
General anesthesia will be used. It will keep your child asleep during the surgery and block pain.
Description of the Procedure
Small keyhole incisions will be made in 1 or both sides of the groin and in the abdomen. Long, thin tools will be passed through the incisions. They will allow the doctor to view and operate inside the body. First, the testicle will be examined.
Next, a pouch will be created in the scrotum. The testicle will be pulled down into the newly created pouch. Permanent stitches will hold the testicle in place. All other incisions will also be closed with stitches that will dissolve on their own.
In some cases, a small button will be placed on the outside of the scrotum. The button will hold the testicle down until healing occurs. The doctor removes the button by cutting the stitches a few weeks after the procedure.
A medication may be given during the surgery to help manage discomfort after the procedure. In most cases, your child can go home from the hospital on the same day as the surgery.
How Long Will It Take?
1 hour per testicle
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery. Your child will be given medication to relieve pain or soreness during recovery.
Post-procedure Care
At the Care Center
- Your child will be monitored while recovering from the anesthesia.
- Your child will be given pain medications as needed.
Preventing Infection
During your child's stay, the care center staff will also take steps to reduce the chance of infection, such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your child's incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your child's chance of infection, such as:
- Washing both you and your child's hands often, and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your child's healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your child's incision
At Home
When your child returns home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Give medications to treat pain and prevent infection as directed.
- Engage in gentle play. Avoid tiring activities for a few weeks. Your child should avoid sitting on or riding a bicycle or other toys that require straddling for about a week after the surgery.
- Monitor your child for signs of pain. These may include irritability, trouble moving, sweating, or pale skin.
Call Your Child's Doctor
It is important to monitor your child's recovery. Alert your child's doctor to any problems. If any of the following occur, call your child's doctor:
- Increasing pressure or pain
- Redness, drainage, puffiness, or soreness around the incision site(s)
- Changes in frequency, odor, appearance, or volume of urine
- Difficulty urinating
- Signs of infection, including fever or chills
- Persistent nausea and/or vomiting
- Abdominal pain
- Lack of energy
- Loss of appetite
If you think your child has an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

Here's another story of an unbeliever converted to Louisiana cuisine:
Al Leone, born and raised in Philadelphia, says when he moved to Baton Rouge three years ago, his diet was built around cheese steaks, hoagies, scrapple and pork rolls:
"I had never had jambalaya or chicken and sausage gumbo, and up north catfish was a throwaway."
He says that as an Italian-American, he was delighted when neighbors invited him and his wife to dinner at Roberto's:
"I said to the wife, 'Oh, Roberto's; I'm ready for a good Italian meal.'"
He was a bit taken aback to discover that the River Road restaurant offered catfish and crawfish rather than Italian dishes.
His neighbors suggested he try the specialty, "Catfish Billie."
"I did, reluctantly. Life has never been the same since. I came to the conclusion that one could eat himself into a coma in Louisiana — and I haven't even scratched the surface."
He's become addicted to Louisiana cuisine — catfish as well as oysters, gumbo, crabs, shrimp, etc.
"I even make it a point to go to Our Lady of the Lake doctors, so I can have lunch at Copeland's."
Not that he's given up the tastes of home: "South of Philly on Sherwood Forest makes an authentic cheese steak. And I do the Italian cooking at home."
Bowled over
Eric A. Kracht says he recently saw the movie "Les Miserables."
"Not what I expected.
"Thought it was going to be about LSU football and Coach Miles' reaction to the Chicken Bowl."
Distressed Damsel Dept.
From Sarah Stravinska, of Chestnut:
"My mama taught me how to change a tire.
"Just stand by the car and look pitiful."
Horsing around
Janice G. Bernard, of Metairie, says when she started getting The Advocate in October, she recalled this Advocate moment in 1938, when she was 10:
"I was visiting my grandparents and aunts and uncles in Mansura. I was in front of my uncle's house and barber shop, and the paperboy came riding up on a horse to deliver the Morning Advocate.
"He tied the horse to a post and walked quite a distance to bring the paper to my uncle's barber shop.
"I decided to take a ride on his horse. Well, it ran away with me. The paperboy started running after us and finally got the horse to stop.
"That was my first experience with riding a horse. I only tried riding a horse two more times, and each time it ran away with me.
"I decided three times was the charm, and since I had not been thrown off or killed, God was telling me something. ('Stay away from horses.')"
Good News Dept.
Gathy Reed, of Lafayette, is one of many Advocate readers who were touched by Steven Ward's Wednesday story about Brandon Farrar's dog Sierra, who was found and returned to him after being missing 16 months:
"Being an animal lover, I naturally was so happy to read of the outcome for the beloved pet.
"But I was also thrilled to read about the wonderful, caring people in Baton Rouge who worked so hard to reunite her with the owner.
"I wish I could read a story like this more often.
"Many thanks to the Baton Rouge residents involved in this rescue — you made this Lafayette resident very happy!"

An investigation revealed that the music machine had jammed, and blared all night the song "There Will Never Be Another Ewe."

BEST-selling Blackburn author Josephine Cox will become a patron of Blackburn with Darwen's library service.
The international author will attend a plaque-unveiling ceremony to mark the occasion at Blackburn Central Library today.
She is visiting her hometown as her 50th book, The Runaway Woman, is published.
Executive member for leisure at the council, Damian Talbot, said: "We are absolutely delighted that Josephine has agreed to be a patron for our library service.
"She is an international bestselling author and we are very proud that she's local born and bred."
Josephine was born in Blackburn and was one of 10 children. At the age of 16, she met and married her husband, Ken, and had two sons. When the boys started school, she decided to go to college and eventually gained a place at university but was unable to take this up as it would have meant living away from home.
Instead, she went into teaching – and started to write her first full-length novel. She won the 'Superwoman of Great Britain' Award, for which her family had secretly entered her, at the same time as her novel was accepted for publication.
The author will meet a group of school children from 10.30am until 12pm, before hosting an informal drop-in session with fans until 1pm. She is also holding An Audience with Josephine Cox at Thwaites Theatre event later that evening for Child Action North West.

STRICTLY Come Dancing stars were quizzed by Bucks New University students on the world of showbusiness.
Soon-to-be-wed international dance champions Kevin Clifton and Karen Hauer, who starred in the last series of Strictly, were part of the 'Dance Industry Panel' that visited the Wycombe-based university yesterday.
Kevin, who previously toured with the show Burn the Floor in the West End with Karen, said: "It was really interesting and I love just talking to like-minded people.
"The students are just starting out on their careers so I hope any advice we gave them was enthusiastically received.
"Myself and Karen previously performed the official opening of a dance studio at Bucks New University so I have quite an affinity with the University and it was great to be invited back."
Asked whether his life had changed since reaching the Strictly final with Susanna Reid, Kevin said: "It's opened up opportunities and we are getting to do plenty of extra things and meeting lots of new people. It's exciting."
Kevin and Karen spoke to students studying BA (Hons) Dance and Performance and BA (Hons) Dance and Fitness.
The panel was completed by personal trainer Jessica Keeley; Erin Sanchez, Healthier Dancer Programme Manager at Dance UK; Subathra Subramanian.
Director and Choreographer of Sadhana Dance Company; Tricia Walsh, Director of Palio Productions, which works in the cruise ship industry; and Bucks graduate Laura Winnan, a dance teacher, also took part.
Lynn Bouchier, course leader for BA (Hons) Dance and Performance, who is also Kevin's aunt, said: "We were privileged to play host to a diverse and wide-ranging panel whose thoughts, experiences and tips were well-received by our students.

Two secondary schools have pledged to work with police and other agencies following an incident which resulted in the arrest of 13 teenagers.
Eight youngsters were held last Thursday after an alleged assault on two boys in Keighley the previous afternoon. A further five teenagers from various parts of Keighley were arrested yesterday, also on suspicion of assault. The five, aged 13 to 16, were being held in custody as the Keighley News went to press.
The original eight had been released on bail pending further inquiries.
Two boys aged 15 and 16 were taken to hospital following the 3.15pm incident last Wednesday on Spring Gardens Lane.
At that time each day the lane is busy with hundreds of students walking home from Holy Family School and University Academy Keighley (UAK).
School leaders said they were working together after the incident to reassure parents and children of their safety.
Holy Family bosses held a meeting for parents on Friday following claims that students had been repeatedly threatened by UAK students on their way home.
A police spokesman said that in last Wednesday's incident two boys were approached by a group of teenagers who subjected them to an assault. He said: "The two victims were taken to hospital after sustaining cuts and bruising."
Six of the suspects subsequently arrested on suspicion of assault were aged 15, one was 14 and one was 13.
On Friday a joint statement was issued by UAK and Holy Family School saying they had held discussions with staff and parents and would work with police and other agencies. Holy Family head Lawrence Bentley said: "It is deeply regrettable that two boys from our school have been assaulted.
"Holy Family is a safe and orderly school and we do all we can ensure the safety of our pupils on their journey to and from school. We will review our approaches."
Gareth Dawkins and Linda Wallsgrove, the executive leadership team at UAK, said: "It would appear that the actions of a very small group of young people have affected the safety and positive relationships that exist between young people in our community.
"It is extremely difficult to understand why this should have happened and we will do everything we can to prevent any similar such events in the future."
Any witnesses to last Wednesday's incident, or with information about it, should contact the police non-emergency number 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

Hello everyone, I've been away for awhile, and appear to have missed much. It is great to see such an interest in our craft (art?) of grilling. Grand Scale, your posts are a scream, I've enjoyed reading them along with everyone elses.
To the point, I have long been a griller of pork....: butts, picinics, hams, ribs, loins, you name it. I now have the task of grilling a twelve pound BEEF sirloin tip, whole. Can anyone tell me if the same drill of: rub, slow and low and mop every 45min ala pork shoulder applys here, or is a different method needed? Being a native of eastern NC, we all have pork worked out, but I think maybe the Texans among others got the beef down.
Thank you all, and happy grilling!

13 February 2012
Via Islanders press release:
UNIONDALE, NY (February 13, 2012) – The New York Islanders announced today that defenseman Ty Wishart has been recalled from loan from the Bridgeport Sound Tigers of the American Hockey League (AHL). The club also returned forward Rhett Rakhshani on loan to the Sound Tigers.
Wishart, 23, has four goals and 11 assists in 48 games this season with the Sound Tigers. Acquired by the Islanders in a trade with the Tampa Bay Lightning on Jan. 1, 2011, Wishart appeared in 20 National Hockey League (NHL) games last season, scoring one goal with four assists and a plus-5 rating.
The San Jose Sharks selected Wishart in the first round, 16th overall, of the 2006 NHL Entry Draft. In five professional seasons, the Belleville, ON, native has appeared in 193 AHL games with the Worcester Sharks, Norfolk Admirals and the Sound Tigers.
Rakhshani, 23, appeared in five games with the Islanders during his first call up of the season. He has nine goals and 16 assists in 27 games this season with the Sound Tigers. The Orange, CA, native is third on the Sound Tigers in scoring with 25 points, despite playing in 27 of the team's 48 games.
Last season, Rakhshani led the Sound Tigers in goals (24), assists (38), points (62) and power-play goals in 66 games as a rookie. He represented the Sound Tigers at the 2011 AHL All-Star Classic and was named to the AHL All-Rookie First Team. The Islanders selected Rakhshani in the fourth round, 100th overall, of the 2006 National Hockey League Entry Draft.

As we mentioned earlier, Nathan Bowen, president of the LGBT center in Enid, Okla., has been arrested on charges of "lewd molestation of minor" following allegations that he exchanged sexually explicit texts and later engaged in oral sex with a 15-year-old he met at the center, according to reports by News 9 in Oklahoma City.
But Brittany Novotny, Bowen's attorney, said in a written statement that the 15-year-old attempted to instigate a sexual encounter with Bowen and when Bowen refused, the teen lied about the incident to his mother and police to get back at Bowen for turning him down.
According to police reports, the teenager said he and Bowen began sending each other sexually explicit text messages on Friday, Feb. 18, after meeting at the LGBT center. Bowen then picked the teen up at a park on Sunday, Feb. 20, and took him to a home in the area where Bowen performed oral sex on the boy after asking him to take off his clothes. When Bowen asked the teen to perform oral sex on him and return with him to Bowen's home, the boy refused, reports said.
The teen told police that he then told Bowen he needed to go home and Bowen returned the boy to the park where his mother picked him up. The mother called police after finding the sexually explicit texts on her son's phone.
But Novotny's statement offered a very different version of events, saying Bowen and the teenager had met at a Valentine's Day event at the center on Saturday, Feb. 19, and that the teen had volunteered to help with chores at the center on Sunday. While the two were engaged in the chores, according to Novotny, the teenager — who is physically larger than Bowen — began kissing Bowen and asking him to have sex. When Bowen refused, the boy became angry, telling Bowen, "I always get what I want."

Q & A — July 2004
By Capt. Ken Kreisler
It's Good to Vent
| A possible
cause for fuel starvation, diagnosing a spark plug deposit, and more.
have a 41-footer with twin gasoline stern drives. Lately I've noticed
decreased engine power and surging at higher speeds on one engine. Everything
seems to check out, but the problem reoccurs. Any suggestions? T.B.,
via e-mail
A typical vent system for an integral fuel tank, as illustrated here, includes a hose that leads from the top of the tank to a fitting mounted on the outside of the hull. Having a small orifice, this fitting is notoriously prone to blockage by debris, especially insect nests.
To determine if this is the source of your problem, loosen the fill cap enough to allow the tank to vent, and then run the engine. If all appears to be normal, a clogged vent is most likely the culprit. To clear the obstruction, remove the hose from the vent and push any debris through to the outside. Failure to do so can cause the debris to be sucked into the fuel tank and, eventually, into your engine, causing more problems.
a recent tune-up on my tender's two-stroke outboard, I noticed a
deposit wedged between the electrode and the spark plug electrode. What
can be causing this? P.G., via e-mail

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I loved that I was able to pick invitations that went with our theme and colours. The ordering process was simple and fast."
"My fiance and I are very particular people, and therefore, finding an invitation that fit the occasion and us was nearly impossible. However, after endless searching I found these beautiful invitations and we couldn't be happier. I upgraded the the pearly finish, polka dots on the back, and the gold envelopes. All together, they are perfect! Be it that I tend to make any purchase harder than it needs to be, I have no regrets. Even a couple days after my purchase I realized I forgot to add vital information, wedding paper divas had an editing process that allowed me to add the information to the invitation and make it look phenomenal. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE! If you are having any hesitations, trust me, I understand. But these are perfect!"
"These turned out beautiful! We received phone calls from our family when they received them, to let us know how creative and pretty they were! I especially enjoyed being able to modify the border, as it gave the invitations a little something extra!"
"Great invitations for a destination beach wedding. Love the color options, & paper/print quality. The shipping is a little higher on these because they're square, but worth the extra cost. Highly recommend requesting a poof review for edits/recommendations. They came out perfect!"
"I could not have been more pleased with my experience with Wedding Paper Divas. I received all orders right on time, they turned out better than I even imagined and they were the perfect design for my destination wedding. I continue to get compliments on my invitations and will treasure them forever! Thank you to the kind ladies that I spoke with via phone to make some last minute edits! They were amazing :) Thank you Wedding Paper Divas!! Stacey"

RUNNERS can go double the distance to show cancer who is the boss at this year's Cancer Research UK's Race for Life.
A new 10k route will start and finish in Pitchcroft, go around the park, racecourse grounds and also venture into Gheluvelt Park, Barbourne, to make up the extra distance to the usual 5k route.
Women can sign up now to take part in either the 5k or 10k Race for Life which will take place on Sunday, July 6 at 10am.
Kelly Rumble, Cancer Research UK's Race for Life area events manager, said: "We're calling on ladies in Worcester and surrounding areas that have done 5k and need an extra challenge and those that have never taken part as 5k wasn't enough to enter and take on cancer at this year's Race for Life 10k."
"We know how committed Worcester women can be when they really make up their minds to do something.
"We want to harness that power to stop cancer in its tracks, by raising money for life-saving research."
Last year, 3,015 women took part in Race for Life in Worcester and raised over £163,000.
The organisers hope they can sign up 3,400 women this year to help raise £160,895.
She added: "Race for Life is an amazing way to celebrate life but also remember those who have been lost to the disease.
"There are over 200 cancers and we won't give up until we find cures for them all."

Race and the Drug War
The drug war has produced profoundly unequal outcomes across racial groups, manifested through racial discrimination by law enforcement and disproportionate drug war misery suffered by communities of color.
Although rates of drug use and selling are comparable across racial lines, people of color are far more likely to be stopped, searched, arrested, prosecuted, convicted and incarcerated for drug law violations than are whites.
Higher arrest and incarceration rates for African Americans and Latinos are not reflective of increased prevalence of drug use or sales in these communities, but rather of a law enforcement focus on urban areas, on lower-income communities and on communities of color as well as inequitable treatment by the criminal justice system. We believe that the mass criminalization of people of color, particularly young African American men, is as profound a system of racial control as the Jim Crow laws were in this country until the mid-1960s.
This video from hip hop legend Shawn "Jay Z" Carter and acclaimed artist Molly Crabapple depicts the drug war's devastating impact on the Black community from decades of biased law enforcement.
The video traces the drug war from President Nixon to the draconian Rockefeller Drug Laws to the emerging aboveground marijuana market that is poised to make legal millions for wealthy investors doing the same thing that generations of people of color have been arrested and locked up for.
The Drug Policy Alliance is committed to exposing disproportionate arrest rates and the systems that perpetuate them. We work to eliminate policies that result in disproportionate incarceration rates by rolling back harsh mandatory minimum sentences that unfairly affect urban populations and by repealing sentencing disparities.
Crack cocaine sentencing presents a particularly egregious case. Since the 1980s, federal penalties for crack were 100 times harsher than those for powder cocaine, with African Americans disproportionately sentenced to much lengthier terms. But, in 2010, DPA played a key role in reducing the crack/powder sentencing disparity from 100:1 to 18:1, and we are committed to passing legislation that would eliminate the disparity entirely.
The life-long penalties and exclusions that follow a drug conviction have created a permanent second-class status for millions of Americans, who may be prohibited from voting, being licensed, accessing public assistance and any number of other activities and opportunities. The drug war's racist enforcement means that all of these exclusions fall more heavily on people and communities of color. DPA is committed to ending these highly discriminatory policies and to combating the stigma attached to drug use and drug convictions.

State Parks Offer Hands-On Connection With Texas Archeology
AUSTIN, Texas — October is Archeology Month, and numerous Texas state parks are hosting tours that afford visitors the chance to get up close and personal with history at places where archeologists have uncovered important clues to the past.
For instance, an archeological survey this year at Mission Tejas State Park in Grapeland has identified Native American Indian artifacts in the park. Artifacts found in several sites hail from the late prehistoric time, also called the "contact period," when European settlers coexisted with Native Americans. *
Todd McMakin, Cultural Resources Specialist for East Texas, says "We are excited about this new evidence for the Nabedache Village at Mission Tejas State Park. Not only can this information be used to enhance our interpretation at the park, but it can also be used to identify the true nature of this Caddoan village. These sites will be important to our interpretation of Caddoan life during the late 17th century."
From the findings, park interpreters will now be able to share more of this land's history with the public. Visitors to Mission Tejas can go on a monthly, guided tour of the Nabedache sites and can attend the archeology fair in October. But this is only one of several sites where visitors can connect with the past during Archeology Month in October. Here are more.
