Thanks to everyone who answered my many questions about Mpls and esp. to Chowhounder John and his wife for the trip to Lindstrom, good company and saved me renting a car. Altho I probably should have had one anyway since MSP is pretty spread out, but the buses got me where I needed to go and walking kept off the pounds. In somewhat the order of eating I started walking down to the Band Box on 10th where the baby burger w/ cheese wasn't too exciting and should have cost less. Rode the bus out to the Midtown Global Market and grabbed a pork tamale at La Loma which was very good (only $1.75). Lots of eating choices in there (our old Sears bldg is filled with a boring Best Buy and Bed, Bath & Beyond). Walked down Lake St. past many taquerias wondering if there were some gems in there. Then detoured over to Crema Café where I have to say the ice cream did not impress me. Tasted the cantaloupe/lime flavor and ended up with a dish of the crema, neither of which were very flavorful. Bopped into the Dakota downtown for a happy hour fancy "martini" which was okay, not ready for food at that point. Later that nite, met a friend of a friend at Ike's which fooled me into thinking it was an old joint. Should have gone next door to Murray's for that but the tuna sandwich w/ fries for $14.95 was quite decent and the bartender was really personable.
Fri. I walked over to Al's from the Marriott and only had to wait about 10 min to sit down for a plate of hash browns (something we don't have much of on the east coast) and a single blueberry pancake. Good stuff and only about $3.40 total. I liked that Dinkytown area. I then rode the bus down Univ. Ave. in St. Paul to grab a bahn mi at Que Nha but they didn't have them and I wanted something easy to carry since I wasn't even hungry. I went across the street to Tai Hoa and got a pre-made bahn mi there from a neighborhood bakery and thought it seemed pretty spicy. I went to eat more of it later that nite and couldn't believe how much it hurt my lips and made my eyes tear up. It was weird, esp. for something pre-made, I had to toss it. In any case, I then rode back to Snelling Ave. and walked all the way down to The Nook and managed to eat a whole Jucy Lucy w/ excellent fries for about $7. It was pretty mellow in there in the middle of the afternoon but I really liked it, just wish I'd been more hungry. I then hopped on a bus that went down 7th St. which had some cool stuff (wish I had tried the Day by Day) and wandered into Mickey's thinking I could force down a piece of pie but they only had apple which was kinda boring so no food there. Then I rode over to the nice sections of Selby and Grand and stopped into Café Latte where I got a great cherry/choc. chip scone for later. I could hang at that place. Tried a banana/walnut ice cream cone at the Grand Ol Creamery and again, it was fine but I think we're all set for ice cream in Boston. Stopped by Martini Blu in the Grand Hotel for happy hour and those two bartenders were so cute and nice, very fun to talk to. No food but after wandering around a bit more, went to Solera where their $2 sangria and $2 tapas were excellent. I got puffy shrimp things and duck w/ greens on flatbread, what a deal (but not as nice bartenders).
The trip to Lindstrom brought us to cute Stillwater and iced drinks at Grumpy's which is basically in a cave. Excellent donuts and baked goods at Rocky River Bakery in Taylor's Falls then Scandanavian donuts in Lindstrom (and many souvenirs with Lindstrom on it). Back to Taylor's Falls for the Drive In which was a classic old drive in where you can order in your car but we sat at picnic tables by the mini golf. Cute place but my hot dog was barely hot, served on a cold boring roll, onion straws were just fair and seemed to be done in old batter, the burgers went over better. But the price was right and I'm glad I went. Later that nite, I met more friends of friends and we went to the newer Punch Pizza on Lake St. and that was quite good but I don't think it's up to New Haven (CT) standards which someone had claimed. My pizza with prosciutto, arugula and goat cheese was good, fairly priced at about $8.95 for a 10" (I think). But all our pizzas came out very quickly and the crust suffered for it, too underdone.
Sun. I checked out "Eat Street", Quang's was too crowded so I tried a new place someone had mentioned for a bahn mi, Lu's across the street. I'm not an expert but this definitely hit the spot for $2.50. Rode the bus further out Nicollet to try my first frozen custard at Liberty, just got a vanilla/choc. combo and that was good. Seems to be a cross between soft serve and regular ice cream as far as I can tell but it was my favorite frozen treat in MSP. Noticed that Bella Notte in the "E block" had happy hour all evening on Sun. and couldn't pass it up even tho I was meeting someone at 112 Eatery later. The place looked very happening Sat. nite but was quiet at 7:30 on a Sun. I figured it would be just little bites of things for $2.50 but the tomato/basil flatbread was the size of a dinner plate and the 3 pork skewers w/ Thai cucumber salad could have made a dinner, both very good. With a $2.50 glass of white wine, I should have been done but had more places to check out. Off to 112 for a fancy French "martini" while waiting then had their duck raddichio salad and a small homemade noodle dish w/ lamb. Food was fine but didn't knock my socks off (then again, I was pretty full). Another great bartender, place was almost full at 9PM and the owners were eating at the bar with their child. My friend got a fruit crostata that looked great but I didn't taste it. Last day I grabbed a piece of pie at Turtle Bread in One Financial, got the blueberry/rhubarb ($3.75) since that was novel (hard to pass up the raspberry pie). Excellent stuff, with a great crust. Before leaving, I tried the lemon ricotta pancakes at Hell's Kitchen on 10th and those were great too. Light and tasty, nice blueberries, strawberries and blackberries served on the side ($9.95). Got an order of their tasty grilled sausage bread to take on the plane (with my Belle Notte leftovers). Passed by many of the restaurants on my list (from The Wienery to Spoonriver) and looked longingly at Peter's Grill on 8th which I'd noticed my first day, big old fashioned place. One new friend said that'd be the place he'd recommend to out of towners (why did no one here mention it?) and specifically talked about their pie. I had to go in to check it out and they looked great esp. the peach. Also sorry I didn't get to compare Matt's to the Nook, get fried Walleye at Tavern on Grand, try Cheng Heng for Malaysian and more. So there you go (finally), let me know if you ever need Boston/New England help.
Coincidentally, last nite I came across Rachel Ray's Tasty Travels show (can't stand her but like to see where she goes) and she did MSP. She entioned Solera, Auriga, Mickey's, Quang's, Caffe Latte, a few others.

For Saturday's 7:00 PM match against the New England Revolution, the Red Bulls will honor Boston with a Moment of Reflection prior to the National Anthem, one of many ways in which New York and its fans will show support for the victims of this week's tragedy. The club also announced that it will donate its total net revenues from merchandise sales from Saturday's match to The One Fund Boston (OneFundBoston.org).
"It's very reminiscent of 9/11, in the sense that 9/11, the world was - everybody was a New Yorker," said Red Bulls head coach Mike Petke after Friday's training session. "Now, after this happened, everybody's from Boston. It's true. And I expect that when they come here and the starting lineups are announced, they're out on the field, that we're going to give their players a nice round of applause."
Leading up to the match, the South Ward supporters - Empire Supporters, Garden State Ultras and Viking Army - will be marching into Red Bull Arena alongside the New England Revolution supporters, displaying the banner that they used during Wednesday's match (pictured above).
"I couldn't believe what I was seeing on TV, and still even this morning it seems like, almost unreal," said Thierry Henry. "I don't actually know what they're going through in terms of feeling, but like I said, our thoughts are with them, and especially playing against New England on the weekend and what already they have to go through with Kevin Alston. It wasn't an easy time for them and everyone in Boston, but it's going to be emotional. Just have to stick together I guess and pray for everyone in Boston."
The MLS Anthem, heard in Arenas throughout the league as players enter the pitch, will be replaced this Saturday by The Standells' "Dirty Water," a song that has a direct tie to Boston sports, specifically played after every Red Sox victory at Fenway Park.
Additionally, the Red Bull Arena Color Guard will fly the Boston flag as part of the match procession.

Wastewater nitrogen and phosphorus removal by free and immobilized microalgal systems
|Lau, Pui-sang
|Issue Date
|The employment of the unicellular green algae Chlorella was demonstrated as a model system in removing nutrients (N and P) from the primary settled wastewater in free and carrageenan immobilized states. The growth and nutrient removal performance was related to the type of organic-N substrates and affected by the bacterial interactions in the studies using synthetic wastewater. In wastewater, the nutrient removal was shown to be cell density dependent, correlated to the algal . growth and photosynthetic status in terms of chlorophyll content. Physiological acclimation process was proved to be an effective mean in reducing the retention time for treatment process. Carrageenan as an immobilizing matrix or the heating process associated with the gelling process had no adverse effect on the growth (k and μ[supscript max]), chlorophyll status, nutrient uptake and the nitrate reductase activity of C. vulgaris when compared with the free cells. Carrageenan gel beads was shown to be a NH4[supperscript +] shuttle in adsorbing the ion, temporary storing it and released it when ambient conditions was depleted of the ion. Simultaneous N and P removal from primary settled wastewater was found to be promising. Over 95% N and almost complete P were removed for a retention time of 3 days. This was just half of the time required by the free cell systems operated under similar conditions. The carrageenan immobilized algal system persisted for three 3-day cycles in a continuous batchwise operation before cell leakage became serious. Nitrogen removal effkiency dropped from 95% in the first cycle to 65% in the third cycle. The incorporation of a Delay process between the consecutive cycles sustained the N removal efficiency at 90% though the leakage problem was not alleviated. The alternative incorporation of a Rehardening process extended the operation life to four cycles with a sustaining 95% N removal throughout the process. With this understanding and proper reactor design, the upscale of the immobilized algal system is promising. The maximal cell holding capacity of the gel became a practical limitation of the immobilized system with respect to leakage problem. Good growth of the algal cells in the interior of the bead was confirmed by tracing the temporal confocal images and SEMs. Confocal microscopy is a promising diagnostic technique in delineating the spatial distribution of the algal cells in the beads.

Crystal Palace manager Ian Holloway was 'disappointed' with his side's performance after his former employers Blackpool grabbed a last-gasp equaliser.
Owen Garvan's 52nd-minute header cancelled out Nathan Delfouneso's first-half opener before Glenn Murray scored his 18th goal of the season with 26 minutes left.
Palace were left stunned when Blackpool substitute Nouha Dicko grabbed a late point for the Tangerines to deny Holloway's side the chance of moving to within a point of league leaders Cardiff.
Holloway, who moved to Selhurst Park at the beginning of November after managing Blackpool for three years, said: "It's real disappointing because we looked a shadow of how we've played recently.
"We almost wasted the first 45 minutes. Murray didn't get a chance and he's got so many goals lately it's scary. He got one in the second half and the team created lots more. That was more like us.
"It's not easy when you have been somewhere a long time and had some great times. I carried my shield very proudly when I was at Blackpool and I'm trying to do that here at Crystal Palace," added the Bristolian manager.
Holloway made one change to the side that defeated arch-rivals Brighton with Darcy Blake coming in for the virus-stricken Joel Ward at right-back.
Blackpool, who have not lost a game since Michael Appleton replaced Holloway at Bloomfield Road, started the better side with the Seasiders controlling possession in midfield.
The away side took the lead when Tom Ince played in a defence-splitting cross for on-loan striker Delfouneso to score at the back post.
Palace levelled the scoring seven minutes into the second half after winger Yannick Bolasie played a threatening ball into Blackpool's penalty box for the unchallenged Garvan to nod home.
Holloway made a positive substitution shortly after Palace's goal - taking off Blake for Brazilian playmaker Andre Moritz – resulting in Kagisho Dikgacoi moving to right-back for the second consecutive match.
Garvan turned provider for Palace's second when the Irishman chipped in a delicate ball for Murray to score his 10th goal since Holloway's arrival at Selhurst Park.
Blackpool earned a deserved point in the 89th minute as the unmarked Dicko tapped-in a Wes Thomas cross to the despair of Palace fans.
Palace's home unbeaten record under Holloway remains intact going into their final home match of 2012 against Huddersfield in two weeks' time.

Car drop-off date
Car pick-up date
Located 2.1 mi. from the Charlotte Airport
We provide safe long term parking for your travels out of the Charlotte Airport. We are located right off of I-85 and Billy Graham Parkway. Just a short 5 minute shuttle ride to your terminals. You must call ahead to schedule your shuttle service. Our shuttle runs 24 hours a day once a hour on the :15 of the hour. You MUST make reservations online in order to take advantage of this special offer. Address and driving directions are provided on your confirmation.
Shuttle service was slow but the lot is convenient to the airport and I will likely use them again.
Good ratio Quality and Cost
The front desk people seem clueless when asked any questions. The shuttle was not in time to leave and we ended up late to our arrival plan. When we returned, the instructions to find the shuttle were vague so we missed the first time he came. By the time he parked and we saw him and headed toward him, he had got two people and was leaving. We waited a little over an hour after our arrival time before being picked up.I would not use this again!
Didn't like the driver asking for a tip
all I can say is the shuttle service was waste of time and made customers mad.
This was a great service! It was so much easier than long term parking! We don't fly very often, but we will definitely use it again and will recommend it to others.
I like your service. Last month I made a reservation in a place and unfortunately they denied the service. Globalairportparking made an alternative reservation for me and also paid the cost difference on my behalf. It is a good customer relationship and I will be using your service again. Keep up the good work
Drivers were great, but person at front desk didn't give good info on where to meet driver for pickup upon returning back from trip causing us to look around for van for 20 minutes.Also van seemed over booked being that 2 clients had to be left at airport for next pickup.
I called for p/u and they indicated they would send van immediately for us at the airport. It's 2 miles away and takes 5 minutes according to website. It took 35-40 minutes.
Called hotel after 25 minutes, and they said traffic was the issue. When driver arrived, they said they waited for passenger being transported to the airport. Passenger exited van when we got in van at airport. We won't use this location again.
Website says van travels every 15 minutes. New policy is longer.
We have used Global Airport Parking numerous times. We have been very happy with all aspects, from the scheduling to the actual parking area. This trip, our flight home was canceled and we had no issues extending our parking by a day. We have recommended Global Airport Parking to numerous friends.
very good first time using will use again thanks
Only problem was much sap on my car but what can I expect in North Carolina in the summer! Good experience!
Unfortunately, we had a last minute change to our trip itinerary and were not able to use the prepaid Global Airport Parking service, Baymont Inn, CLT. The change in plans was not enough in advance to request a refund. We have used Global many times in the past with complete satisfaction. We will plan to visit your service again.
Had to wait for approximately an hour after calling for the shuttle, upon my return. Minor inconvenience. Otherwise, I will definitely use this service again.
I would recommend this service to others, it was easy to use, the shuttle was prompt and the people were very friendly
Stay up to date with everything Global. Receive weekly updates and exclusive discounts only available in your area.
Join us in bringing change to non-profits around the world by rounding up your reservation!

It's Boxing Day. Your kitchen worktops are groaning under piles of plates, roasting dishes, pans and champagne glasses. If you're struggling to persuade anyone in your house to fill the sink with hot soapy water, you should first hand them a copy of Mark Mason's piece in the Christmas issue of the Spectator, 'The tao of washing up'. Mark writes that washing up is 'therapeutic', a 'Zen-like state where troubles disappear and inspiration thrives', threatened only by 'evil' dishwashers. He also details how to get the most satisfaction from a session at the sink:
Like all truly noble endeavours, washing up has time-honoured rituals. 'Washing as you cook' is a particular pleasure, allowing regular hits of the drug amidst your peeling and boiling. Real aficionados even extend this to 'washing as you eat'. Grayson Perry's wife says he does 'that wonderful, restful thing of washing up all the dishes between the main course and dessert'. But adding fuel to the theory that washing up has a male bias, she adds: 'He doesn't do it if he has a dress on, though. That's the only annoying thing about living with a transvestite — he thinks it's feminine to just hang around in a chair.'
If you're using a bowl, rather than going commando with the 'sink only' option, the final pleasure is rinsing out the bowl and wiping its bottom with your cloth (Freudians, please discuss). There's some famous footage of Margaret Thatcher doing just this. Now there was a washer-upper. So keen was Maggie on the chore that during one prime ministerial visit to Balmoral she insisted on washing up after the barbecue. Bit of a problem there: by tradition this occasion is the Queen's yearly turn at the task. She even retires to a special hut to do it. Only after some discussion did Her Majesty prevail.
Gloves are controversial. For me they're a no-no — condomish insulation from the water's heat. Ideally the temperature should render your hands scarlet. (Unless you're Chris Evans, who prefers his water tepid. Just not natural — the man needs watching.) One of my friends likes water so hot that his hands have actually started to scale up; reluctantly, he is now donning the Marigolds. Another solves the problem with moisturiser. Truly, washing up is the road to metrosexuality.
You can read more about socialist dishwashers and the cheeky trick Mark and his friends played on one earnest chum at the washing up bowl here.

Consumers are used to seeing warnings on CD's, but online they are far less common. iTunes uses them, but YouTube, VEVO, Amazon and most others have less rigid policies.
Now UK music industry group BPI is updating its 15-year-old Parental Advisory system "to "bring up to date what happens on the high street (a London street known for music shops) to the digital age".
Soon YouTube, Spotify and others will be forced to add the warning.
"We think it is important for parents to get the same standards of guidance and information online as they get when buying CDs or DVDs on the high street," Geoff Taylor, chief executive of the BPI told The Gaurdian. "We are updating our... scheme for the digital age to ensure that explicit songs and videos are clearly labelled."

Today Panerai officially pulled the covers off its new Radiomir 1940 3 Days GMT Oro Rosso (PAM00570). This is a Panerai "Special Edition" which means that production is limited — 300 pieces, in this instance. The watch is as attractive from the back as it is the front.
It has a 47mm red gold ("oro rosso") case and brown "sandwich" dial with a goregous satiné soleil finish on top. Done in the characteristic Panerai style, there is a small seconds at 9 o'clock and date aperture at 3 o'clock; the arrow-shaped central hand indicates the second time zone, hence the engraved letters "GMT" at six o'clock. A distinction of the "Radiomir 1940" case is its thicker, more typical lugs as compared to the wire loop lugs on traditional "Radiomir" cases.

As attractive is the view through the caseback. The admirably finished Panerai P.3001/10 calibre is a hand-wound movement with a power reserve of three days as indicated on the back. The indicator is connected directly to the spring of one of the two barrels, both of which are skeletonised, as are the bridges with brushed finish. The movement also has the device for rapid setting of the hour hand, which can be moved forward or backwards in one-hour jumps of without interfering with the running of the seconds hand.

The P.3001/10 calibre is also used in the PAM 447 and PAM 448 pocket watches, and the gorgeous blue-dialed Radiomir GMT PAM 598 which was introduced last year.

Notes: Mourning Saenz reports to camp
Notes: Mourning Saenz reports to camp
VERO BEACH, Fla. -- Olmedo Saenz reported for Tuesday's first full-squad workout at Dodgertown with fresh legs but a heavy heart. He buried his 52-year-old mother over the weekend in Panama. "It's hard, but she loved to see me working so I know this is where she would want me to be," said the 35-year-old Saenz. "I know in my heart, I'm at peace that as a family we did everything we could to help her fight, but it was time to go."
Saenz said he will play for Team Panama in the World Baseball Classic to honor his mother's memory. "I know she would have liked to see me with the national team," he said. "This would make her proud." When he wasn't caring for his ailing mother over the winter, Saenz was working on refreshing his body, which took more of a pounding than he anticipated in 2005. The rash of injuries to position starters forced Saenz, ostensibly a pinch-hitter, into a career-high workload. He set personal bests with 109 games, 319 at-bats, 84 hits, 24 doubles, 15 home runs and 63 RBIs. He was second on the club in RBIs, fourth with a .480 slugging percentage. "I had to play a lot more and it took awhile for my body to get used to it," said Saenz, who has a history of Achilles tendon injuries. "Then I went back to the bench. It was like a roller coaster. You've got to be mentally strong." Saenz credits his mother for instilling in him the perfect temperament for a bench job in baseball. "She taught me the right things and helped me be ready to go by myself and be a man," he said. "She was calm and could always communicate. I will always miss her and think about her, but now it's time to do my job." Names on uniforms: Here's chairman Frank McCourt's answer when asked on a dodgers.com chat Tuesday if the club would return player names to the backs of uniforms: "Truthfully, I hear that quite a bit and we're going to look into that. Without making excuses, there's a little bit more to it than just putting it back on. Major League Baseball has rules and there was no way we could do it for this year, but we're looking into it for the '07 season."
Introductions: Manager Grady Little held his first full-squad meeting before the first full-squad workout Tuesday. With the influx of veterans, he didn't sound concerned about improving last year's chemistry. "That takes time to develop," he said. "We won't try to reinvent the game here. Chemistry is not something you can go in and change. You can't go from 71-91 to 91-71 in a meeting. You can't just say cohesiveness and get it done. It has to happen with people that were here before adjusting to new ones." New arrival, late arrival: J.D. Drew was the only Dodger missing Tuesday because he was home with new son Jack David, born Sunday night. Drew is expected to arrive in Florida on Thursday and participate in his first workout Friday. His health is a major source of concern for the Dodgers. He underwent offseason operations on his wrist and shoulder. The latter reportedly has healed slowly, which could hamper his ability to throw during Spring Training. Grab a bat: About half of the Dodgers pitchers in camp threw batting practice, with Odalis Perez particularly pleased with the results. Brad Penny, on rehab all last spring, was throwing particularly hard. Rafael Furcal, still rehabbing his right knee after surgery, took 40 swings of soft-toss for the second day. He still is not participating in any infield drills. Cesar Izturis, however, is doing everything except long throws as he recovers from Tommy John elbow surgery. Jeff Kent also participated in infield practice, but threw underhanded. They're No. 1: The Dodgers are ranked first in the talent rankings of Baseball America's Prospect Handbook, an improvement from 28th in 2002. "We are proud of the talent that our farm system is developing and we look forward to the future of this franchise with a strong core of homegrown Dodgers," McCourt said in a release. Credit for the dramatic improvement is generally attributed to scouting director Logan White and farm director Terry Collins. Both were hired in 2002. Baseball America labeled last year's Double-A Jacksonville Suns the most talented team in the Minor Leagues and the Minor League team of the year. That club included Chad Billingsley, Andy LaRoche, Joel Guzman, Russell Martin, Jonathan Broxton, Tony Abreu, James Loney, Justin Orenduff, Hong-Chih Kuo and Greg Miller. All are in the current Major League training camp.

Blackhawks Losing Money Despite Second Stanley Cup Final Appearance In Four Years
Blackhawks Chair Rocky Wirtz said that despite making a "second Stanley Cup Final appearance in four seasons and obliterating television ratings records," the team will need "at least two more years before turning a profit," according to Danny Ecker of CRAIN'S CHICAGO BUSINESS. Wirtz characterized this season's "accomplishments on the ice and at the ticket gate as 'setting us up to be in a much better place next year.'" Ecker notes Crain's estimates the Blackhawks annually spend $10-20M "more than they take in" despite "higher ticket and sponsorship revenues this season." This season's "surge to the Stanley Cup Final hasn't made up for missed revenue from a lockout-shortened regular season, when the team continued to pay more than 100 non-player employees, but it has mitigated the pain." Ticket sales from 12 home playoff games have "poured roughly $15 million into the team's coffers." The team's losses are "covered easily" by Wirtz' other "highly successful interests, including Wirtz Beverage Co." The team generates $20-25M annually from "sponsorships, television rights fees, including those from Comcast SportsNet Chicago (of which Mr. Wirtz is a part owner) and assorted income such as merchandise sales." But that "doesn't cover a third" of the $68M cost of player salaries. The Blackhawks spend nearly $20M on "staff, coaches and payments to subsidize the league's 10 lowest revenue-generating franchises as required" under the NHL's new CBA, creating the "reliance on ticket revenue." With attendance over capacity, the team's "take from tickets comes to less than $50 million based on the average price." Before the Stanley Cup playoffs began, the team said that it would "raise prices on next year's season tickets, which account for about 75 percent of all tickets sold, by an average of 16 percent, translating to an overall average ticket price of more than $70" (CRAIN'S CHICAGO BUSINESS, 6/17 issue).
MY KIND OF TOWN: In Chicago, Fred Mitchell wrote the "whole city is abuzz, and not just the everyday sports fans of what once was considered sort of a niche sport." Players, coaches and management from the other teams in Chicago have "taken serious notice of the Hawks' success on the ice and the way they handle their business from top to bottom." Mitchell: "I have spent a lot of time around the Cubs, Sox and Bears the last few months and praise of the Blackhawks as an effective organization is widespread" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 6/15).
Nuggets Tap Tim Connelly As New VP/Basketball Ops, Adds to Family NBA Legacy
The Nuggets yesterday named Pelicans Assistant GM Tim Connelly VP/Basketball Operations, replacing Masai Ujiri, according to Benjamin Hochman of the DENVER POST. Nuggets President Josh Kroenke, after former VP/Basketball Operations Pete D'Alessandro was hired by the Kings as their new GM, "quickly regrouped and locked in on Connelly." Connelly is "known for his scouting abilities, nationally and internationally, and he has a vast basketball background." He joined the Pelicans in '10 after working as Wizards Dir of Player Personnel. Pelicans GM Dell Demps said of Connelly, "He always sees the bright side. Everybody's really going to look forward to working with Tim. ... Tim is friends with everybody. He's one of those guys who everybody knows and everybody likes." Hochman writes, "As for name recognition, perhaps in a decade fans will look back at the Connellys as the Mannings of NBA execs." His brother Pat is the new Assistant GM with the Suns. Two other brothers also have "worked in coaching and scouting in some NBA capacity" (DENVER POST, 6/18).
THE NEXT GENERATION: In Baton Rouge, Darrell Williams in a special writes Connelly is considered "adept at handling the salary cap and player negotiations, but he is known foremost as an outstanding scout, particularly of international players, and has a wealth of contacts in European basketball" (Baton Rouge ADVOCATE, 6/18). YAHOO SPORTS' Adrian Wojnarowski wrote Connelly is "part of a younger generation of league executives moving into top management positions and has been compared favorably" to Magic GM Rob Hennigan and Suns GM Ryan McDonough as "part of the league's next crop of bright young minds" (SPORTS.YAHOO.com, 6/17).
NEW IN TOWN: In Sacramento, Jason Jones noted D'Alessandro yesterday was introduced as Kings GM "on his 45th birthday." Kings Managing Partner Vivek Ranadive "initially viewed D'Alessandro as a 'long shot' for the job but was captivated by D'Alessandro's intelligence and vision." D'Alessandro "falls in line with many of today's" new GMs as his "statistical analysis is a strength, and he has worked for a sports agency." D'Alessandro also is a lawyer. Ranadive said, "The 21st-century GM has to understand the complexities of (salary) capology, the development in technology, the use of analytics. And if a good chess player thinks two moves ahead, in Pete we have a guy who can think four moves ahead." D'Alessandro said that he "leans toward a smaller staff with diverse backgrounds" (SACRAMENTO BEE, 6/18). Also in Sacramento, Ailene Voisin writes D'Alessandro is "storming into Sacramento to change the climate and start scribbling on the blank slate." He is "young and dynamic and energetic" as well as "bright and personable and eclectic." Ranadive before scheduling the interviews "asked each of the candidates to analyze the Kings' roster and, among other things, provide short- and long-term plans and examples of linear and non-linear thinking." He wanted "names, dates, times, places." His "vetting process required everything but an IQ test" (SACRAMENTO BEE, 6/18).
This Ain't A Love Song: Browns Cancel Kick Off Concert At Bon Jovi's Behest Amid Low Sales
The Browns canceled next month's "Fan Kickoff Concert" at FirstEnergy Stadium due to weak ticket sales for a show headlined by Bon Jovi, according to industry sources. The Browns pulled the plug on the event at the request of Jon Bon Jovi, the band's front man. "JBJ isn't going to play in front of a half-empty stadium," one source said. "It wasn't a good situation for him." The Browns announced the concert three weeks ago. Tickets went on sale June 3 and were priced as low as $9.50. The average ticket price was $70. The event was to include a two-hour fan festival before the concert. Michael Stanley and the Resonators, a local band, had been booked as the opening act (Don Muret, Staff Writer). Browns VP/Media Relations Neal Gulkis said that the event was to have included the Fan Fest and a "huge pep rally between the performances" of the two bands. Gulkis added that the cancelation "won't sour the Browns on the possibility of future concerts and other events" (Cleveland PLAIN DEALER, 6/18).
Franchise Notes
In Calgary, Eric Francis reports the Flames yesterday confirmed that they are "looking to expand their hockey operations department," and NHL VP/Player Safety & Hockey Operations Brendan Shanahan is "one of the possible hires the club has talked to." However, team President & CEO Ken King "insists any such move will be made entirely with an eye on bolstering the club's front-office braintrust and will not come at a cost of either his or [GM] Jay Feaster's job or responsibilities." Francis writes Flames fans "surprised by the news should find it a pleasant one as bolstering the front office is yet another sign the owners are committed to turning the club's fortunes around" (CALGARY SUN, 6/18).
MESSAGE RECEIVED: In Toronto, Doug Smith writes Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment President & CEO Tim Leiweke has fired Raptors Player Development Dir Alvin Williams in "a terribly short-sighted move that will rankle as many people as anything he does." Leiweke has "jettisoned one of the great guys ever associated with the franchise and a man who wanted nothing more than to spend his entire career with the organization in some way, shape or form." Williams, who had "spent last season scouting for the team" based out of Philadelphia, "loved the organization and the city." Smith writes "as messages go," the Raptors "just sent a crappy one." Smith: "And people will notice" (TORONTOSTAR.com, 6/17).
APOCALYPSE NOW? In N.Y., Mike Puma reports NBC's Bob Costas yesterday called Mets VP/Media Relations Jay Horwitz "to say he meant no harm" by comments during the net's U.S. Open coverage in which he "lambasted the Mets for celebrating [CF] Kirk Nieuwenhuis' game-ending homer against the Cubs" on Sunday. Costas said of the celebration, "Another indication of the ongoing decline of Western civilization" (N.Y. POST, 6/18).

" Genre: Fiction / Author: Tina Anderson, C. B. Potts, Laura Carboni / Paperback / 196 Pages / Book is published 2007-11 by Em Novels "
If you read the Boy's Love genre, you probably have come across the name Tina Anderson before. She is the writer of several well regarded OEL manga (Games with Me, Loud Snow) but this time around, what she offers is a novel. Not only is the format different, but what you find written is quite different from her usual offerings as well. Is it BL, you ask? Well, yes, no, and sort of. Gadarene is one of those novels that crosses genres, doing so in such a way that leaves it open for mainstream audiences to enjoy.
Gadarene is the tale of a young Irish man living in the Bowery section of Manhattan at the turn of the century. Galen has just been released from prison, convicted for misdemeanors connected to his job as a Mongoose for local gangs. Think of a Mongoose as a sort of enforcer who comes calling when either side steps out of line and needs a bloody lesson, and you'll get the picture. Galen's Bowery is a world of the poor, immigrants and their US born children struggling to eke out a living, generally bar related, gambling related, or prostitution. Galen's mother is a prostitute, and upon his release, he discovers that his lover Wira has had to resort to working under a madam "blowing kisses" in order to keep herself housed and fed. Wira is over the moon to find her beloved has been released, and Galen wastes no time freeing her from her service to the madam, but redemption itself for the pair is not that easy.
Mental and metaphysical demons haunt the pair and literally dog their every step. For starters, Wira is a hermaphrodite. Dressing as a woman and mostly living as one, Wira and Galen nonetheless refer to Wira as being male, and their sex seems to reflect this as well. His personal gender identification is not so firmly settled, with feelings of worth being bound up in the confusion thanks to a childhood trauma that also marked the fateful first meeting of Wira and Galen as children.
That meeting provides a good bit of the underpinning of the actual story, as they encounter spectral children and a man known only as HIM that appears, then disappears. This is unsettling enough given who he is and what he did, but even more unsettling is the appearance of the children. Small boys, all aged about six or less, and all very, very dead. These young spectres at first appear silently to Wira, then to Galen. As this doesn't gather the desired response from the pair, these young spectres soon begin to up the ante. With imagery reminiscent of Lovecraft and an atmospheric plot Poe would have been proud of, we are swept along by events until at last, the shocking truth is fully revealed and the pair discover a resolution to their supernatural, and personal, troubles.
The sexual orientation and gender identity of the characters is seamlessly woven into the plot of this psychologically chilling tale. Galen and Wira's love does not form the basis of a tale of romance in the traditional sense. Rather, they are main characters who are lovers, though Wira's "condition" proves crucial to the back story. Less a story about gay love and definitely not a work of erotica, Gadarene is more a tale of horror and suspense that features gays, straights, con men, gangs, and the seamier side of late 19th century New York. In all fairness, there was very little I could find fault with, the sole exception being the easy acceptance of the gay lifestyle by others in the community.
It is a short novel, only 196 pages, but anything more would have been unnecessary padding. I have heard this described as a light novel, and it is indeed as simply written as that type of prose, being meant to be easily and quickly read. The vocabulary is therefore uncomplicated, but extremely well chosen. What distinguishes it from the light novel classification and puts it more towards the novella end though is the lack of illustrations. Light novels are not only shorter than a regular novel with simplified prose, but usually contain full page manga type illustrations scattered here and there. This had none; the only illustration appears to be the cover. Admittedly, I have the electronic edition, but on Amazon's listing for the print edition, I also do not see an artist credit, so I am assuming that is true for that version as well.
Now, I read this on my Kindle, and I have to say the formatting was well done. The text was easy to read without having to zoom or change font and had been properly converted so that no strange characters popped up in the text nor were any strange gaps between words and paragraphs present to annoy. The paperback edition is competitively priced for a paperback, but the Kindle edition is even better value, at around just over half the price of a printed edition. It's a tale that lives up to its title well and one that fans of horror and the supernatural should definitely not miss. I'd like to thank the author for providing me with my review copy.
A version of this review was previously published on my blog, The Kimi-chan Experience.

Can you fit one of the handwarmer heatpacks between the liner and the outer mitten?
Can you fit one of the handwarmer heatpacks between the liner and the outer mitten?
I decided to try these pants as a replacement for my expensive [other brand] khaki's that looked so wrinkled ten minutes after I put them on that I finally gave them to Goodwill. I had simply had it with spending 30 minutes ironing them, and still looking like a frumpy mess within an hour. I work in the financial aid office at a university and wanted something besides jeans that I could wear to work on casual days. These are perfect - extremely comfortable with the little bit of stretch, and at the end of a day of walking across campus, sitting through meetings, etc. they still look neat and fresh. I bought the dark khaki pair first and liked them so much, I bought the mocha brown. These are now my go-to pants for everything from casual work days to traveling to a conference.
What are the care instructions for this sweater - is it handwash only? Thanks!

Wizardry 8 - Storming the Castle

Good to see you back in the saddle. I don't remember if you installed WizFast or not. That helps considerably with the length of combat. That said, the game is going to continue to frustrate you with long combats.
One thing I would recommend is that you watch your radar a little more closely. If you're regularly getting multiple groups showing up for a fight, you need to be a little more careful about choosing the where and when of your battles. Wait for wandering groups to seperate so you only have to tackle one at a time.
I don't think it's a spoiler to warn you that the final end game is a heck of a gauntlet run. There's lots of new critters to meet and interesting zones and even a little humor here and there, but there's also a major buttload of combat. Better get psychologically prepared…
Sorry. No pearls of wisdom in this oyster.

Q: My dog's paw pads are super dry, so dry they're nearly cracking. I know cold weather is coming soon and this will worsen — can I rub some of my lotion or Vaseline on them?
A: I commend your concern for bow owwies on the paw pads but you need to be careful what you rub him down with. Maybe you also want to sweeten them up, corn chip smell and all, but step away from your perfumed lotion! Search for a good pad moisturizer (Samson likes Opie and Dixie's healer) or ask your vet if the problem is severe. Not only can human hand moisturizer soften the pads too much for extra slips or slides, but the ingredients may also be harmful if ingested (read: licked).

Funnyman Adam Sandler may be on the verge of spending serious money on Salma Hayek.
Following the success of the 2010 Grown Ups, Sandler, 46, reportedly purchased Maseratis for several of his male costars – but not for his his on-screen wife. However, if the upcoming Grown Ups 2 outperforms its predecessor at the box office, Sandler implied that this time around he will ante up.
"If this one does better, he's going to get me something better," Hayek, also 46, told the crowd at CinemaCon on Wednesday during a Sony Pictures presentation.
"A Ferrari," Sandler told the movie theater owners and film distributors. "Can we help get Salma a Ferrari?"
Despite its critical drubbing, the first Grown Ups took in more than $270 million globally.

KAMLOOPS - Finding people a place to call home, rather than a place to crash, is Kerry Rubel's speciality.
Arranging billet homes for players on the Kamloops Blazers team is a family-learned practice. Her late mother Doris did it for 40 years.
To make sure every Blazer gets a safe spot Rubel screens potential families and usually asks if more than one player can stay with a family. She makes sure they're close to school, have friends nearby and if a host family is going on vacation that they have somewhere else they can go.
Most importantly, players always have a point of contact with Rubel.
"(Parents) are sending us their kids. They're away from home and don't know exactly what's going on. I'm always here to answer the phone, answer an email or a text or something," she says.
Rather than creating a tenant/landlord relationship, Rubel calls the relationship 'families meeting families.' She says host parents are usually very active with their billets and because of tickets provided by the program, attend the games in support with all the other hosts.
"You make a lot of friends for life that way," Rubel says, mentioning how close she is with hosts and players. "You talk to the families all the time. When (hosts) get an email with a picture of their baby, I get a copy of it."
Drawing on her own family's experience, Rubel points out how some players continue to keep in contact well after their initial meeting. One player, now 54 years old, still sends her regular emails. Rubel met him when he was 16.
On Mother's Day and Christmas, her mother received several cards from past players who had stayed in her home.
"We've even been invited to weddings," Rubel says.
A few NHL stars made their way after billeting in Kamloops. Rubel specifically mentions Jarome Iginla and Shane Doan, both still involved in the organization as owners.
This time of year is crunch-time; the coordinator is currently looking for Valleyview-based families to take players in.
Per billet, a family receives $425 per month along with two season tickets. She notes signing up for the program is 'not a money making thing,' as the cost of food could be a bit higher.
"They can eat more than $425 a month. Some of them are pretty big boys," she says.
Rubel plans to have players signed up for housing by July as hockey camp begins in August. The billet term is until the end of March unless the team makes it to playoffs, which would extend the stay until the end of April.
If you're interested in billeting a Blazer, contact Rubel by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

About Route
This route is section of VPP, Velebit mountaineering trail. It connects its two check points, Rujno plateau and Struge plateau. Section begins at St. Mary church on Veliko Rujno and over Strazbenica (1120m) and Buljma (1400m) passes reaches Struge plateau and Struge refuge (1400m). Altitude difference is around 550m and ascent is split in two parts, each being under a pass. Nature along the route is very beautiful as path partially goes over open with great views towards surrounding peaks and sea or through beautiful beech and black pine forest. Since there is no refuge or hut on Rujno this route is mostly done in combination with Stap – Rujno section of VPP. Rujno - Struge route is not only used by those doing VPP but is also (partially) main path which connects Rujno and Paklenica areas.
Rujno – Struge: 2.30h
From the church head towards SE or Paklenica direction. Over open grassy spaces path goes 10mins before reaching junction where right branch leads towards Velika Paklenica (via Borova Kosa) and towards Milovac on the coast (Veliko Rujno from Milovac route).
You go left and in another 10mins over the open reach the edge of black pine forest. Immediately behind the entrance on the right is mouth of large Golubinka hole. Bottom is not visible from the edge.
Path continues through dense pines that path looks like a tunnel through them. 40 years ago there wasn't a single pine here, only open meadows of Rujno. After 15mins through flat forest ascent begins. Soon pines are replaced by very nice beech forest. Ascent is constant and moderately steep, path wide and nice. After 30mins you'll reach the junction where right is towards Veliki Golic (1265m) (Paklenica hut – Strazbenica – Veliki Golic route). After another 10mins you are on the panoramic balcony from where is beautiful view of Rujno and Viserujna (1632m). This is top of first ascent.
In next 5mins path descends a bit till junction on Strazbenica pass (1120m), 1.15h from church on Rujno. Towards right path descends to Paklenica hut via Mozak ridge (Veliki Golic routes routes).
Continue straight. Minute behind the junction is water source! It dries in summer. Marks turn right shortly before it. After slight ascent path begins to descent gradually, traversing slopes above Brezimenjaca (NW part of upper Velika Paklenica valley) with fantastic views towards it and peaks around. After 15mins there is a water source just by the path (dries in summer). Minute behind the source is junction where Struge route from Paklenica hut joins VPP, 1.30h from the church on Rujno.
Wooden sign says that Buljma and Struge are left. After 5mins path leaves the forest behind, entering rocky slopes below Tadina Glavica (1500m) (which is part of Viserujna (1632m)). In many sharp bends it ascends quite nicely over steep terrain that is mostly made of cliffs. View down towards Paklenica valley and sea in the background is great. In some 30mins you are on a rocky balcony with fantastic view. This is nice place to rest.
Behind balcony path turns left into scree valley below Buljma pass that is surrounded by cliffs of Buljma cliff (right) and Tadina Glavica (1500m) (left). After 10mins over the scree you are on Buljma pass (1400m), 2.15h from church on Rujno. Beautiful view of Struge opens here. Left behind Struge is Badanj (1638m) while right is Stirovac (1569m) and Babin Vrh (1735m).
Have one more view towards the sea before you gradually descent on Struge. 10mins behind the pass is junction where left path leads towards Visocica (1619m), right directly towards upper Struge and Vagabski vrh (1757m) while straight is towards refuge where you are heading (most probably).
Path continues straight through the shallow valley between two hills. After 5mins it begins to ascent and enters the beech grove. 5mins from foot of last short ascent you are in front of Struge refuge (1400m), 2.30h from church on Rujno.

Save 30% with "Madison Madness" grand reopening savings
April 4, 2011
One hundred twenty-two years after first providing accommodations for White Mountain hikers, the Appalachian Mountain Club's (AMC) Madison Spring Hut will reopen on June 2, 2011 after being completely rebuilt to add new green technologies and create more comfortable dining and bunk spaces. The AMC is celebrating by offering 30 percent "Madison Madness" savings on two-night stays between June 5 and June 23, Sunday through Thursday, at all eight of its backcountry huts located along the Appalachian Trail in New Hampshire. Lower elevation huts near ponds and waterfalls are ideal for families with younger kids, and alpine huts such as Madison are more challenging for experienced hikers.
The "Madison Madness" deal is available for reservations made by April 30, 2011 at www.outdoors.org/hutsavings.
Originally built in 1888 and opened in 1889 as AMC's first hut, various versions of Madison Spring Hut have occupied the same site in New Hampshire's Presidential Range throughout its storied history. Madison was modeled after the European alpine huts and is now part of AMC's hut-to-hut hiking network, which is the oldest in the U.S. Madison's 21st century makeover preserves the historic 1929 stone core of the hut comprising the bunkrooms and foundation, while enhancing the hut's layout and "green" profile.
Larger windows in the dining room will provide lots of natural light, and a cathedral ceiling will create a more spacious feeling for guests. A new bunkroom layout will more comfortably accommodate hikers without changing the current capacity of 52 guests. Additional upgrades to energy and mechanical systems will include replacing flush toilets with a more environmentally advanced waterless system. Madison will continue harnessing solar and wind energies to provide its electric power, while taking advantage of newer, more efficient solar photovoltaic panels. New solar thermal collectors will pre-heat water for cooking and washing dishes.
"Madison Spring Hut has seen a lot of years and a lot of use since the current hut was last rebuilt," said Paul Cunha, AMC Vice President for Outdoor Program Centers. "This new project is designed to provide a more energy efficient and environmentally sensitive hut, in keeping with AMC's Green Promise of sustainable operations. At the same time, we hope to improve the guest experience by providing more leg room and elbow room in key areas, and reducing the height of bunks in the bunkrooms."
Perched at an elevation of 4,825 feet, Madison boasts sweeping, above-treeline views of the Presidential Range and the valley below. Madison has evolved from its early years as a simple stone cabin for 12 guests with no caretaker or meal service to one of AMC's most popular huts, now staffed by knowledgeable hut "croo" who offer freshly prepared meals and daily naturalist programs during the summer full-service season. AMC's Hiker Shuttle also connects popular trailheads serving the AMC hut network to AMC roadside lodges—Joe Dodge Lodge in Pinkham Notch and Highland Lodge in Crawford Notch.
LDa Architecture & Interiors, LLP of Cambridge, Massachusetts developed the Madison project design, which complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Lumber, native white cedar shingles, and other construction materials have been purchased from local suppliers, and AMC has hired extra crew members from the local community to complete the work.
To further celebrate the new Madison, AMC is giving away a free, two-night stay at Madison for its opening weekend, June 3 – 4, 2011. Register to win by April 30 on AMC's homepage at www.outdoors.org.
Rates and reservations:
AMC's "Madison Madness" deal offers 30 percent savings over regular AMC member and non-member rates at all eight AMC backcountry huts, for stays June 5 through June 23, 2011. This offer is good for stays of two or more nights, Sunday through Thursday, at any combination of AMC huts. Guests must mention promotion code "HUTS" and book by April 30, 2011 to get this rate.
The "Madison Madness" two-night special rate, per non-member adult, is $141.40 and includes bunkroom accommodations, dinner, breakfast, and naturalist programs. Discounted member rates and child and teen rates are available. Taxes not included.
Book online at www.outdoors.org/hutsavings or call (603) 466-2727.
Founded in 1876, the Appalachian Mountain Club is America's oldest conservation and recreation organization. With more than 100,000 members, advocates, and supporters in the Northeast and beyond, the nonprofit AMC promotes the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of the Appalachian region. The AMC supports natural resource conservation while encouraging responsible recreation, based on the philosophy that successful, long-term conservation depends upon first-hand enjoyment of the natural environment.
AMC huts in the White Mountain National Forest are operated under a special use permit from the U.S. Forest Service. AMC's Lonesome Lake Hut is operated in partnership with the New Hampshire Division of Parks and Recreation.

As far as this season, it's so typical that it's going to be bad then hopefully good. Sounds like we have a bunch of "interesting" folk.
And to the question of has there ever been a completed service in the first episode? - the answer is yes, once and it was still a struggle. He was impressed that they did complete it though, even with all the issues it had - so at least he gave them credit there.

SAN JOSE — Patrick Van Thull is still fighting the tail end of a cough he's had since early November.
It's understandable. Where some people would typically get some rest, Van Thull instead spent six weeks taking part in relief efforts by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in the immediate wake of Hurricane Sandy's devastation on the Atlantic Coast.
Just several weeks removed from the intense, all-consuming task, he recounted his experience at his home in San Jose, where he has lived for the past two years while working as a supervising immigration officer for U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Van Thull was one of three staffers from the agency's San Francisco district — which includes San Jose — to contribute their time and energy to the effort.
"All three of them have commented on how good helping people in difficult circumstances made them feel," said Sharon Rummery, public affairs officer for the northwest region of the USCIS.
"I'd do it again in a heartbeat," Van Thull said.
Which is not to say that it was easy, he cautions.
The Concord native and UC Santa Cruz alum traveled the world before getting involved with the federal immigration agency, where he oversees benefits fraud investigations. It was his involvement there that led him to join a multi-agency volunteer list of federal workers — ranging from border patrol to the Secret Service –who could be called at a moment's notice to help FEMA. The agency developed the plan after its much-maligned response to Hurricane Katrina.
On Nov. 2, four days after Sandy struck stateside, Van Thull saw that volunteers were being summoned to help. But then the clock ticked away that Friday afternoon, leading him to believe he'd probably been passed over.
"It's Friday. They're not calling me. It's 3 o'clock," he remembers thinking. "Then someone calls and asks, 'Are you ready to go?'"
Within a day or so Van Thull was lugging a hastily packed suitcase onto a plane and flying to Emmitsburg, Maryland, home to the National Fire Academy, where he and his colleagues got a crash course in their relief assignments.
Van Thull and the rest of his 10-man cohort were assigned to community relations and spent the next day-and-a-half getting schooled on evaluating the situations of affected residents and how to let them know about FEMA aid.
Within a couple of days, they were on a bus to New York. They came to a stop in Staten Island and the docked troop ship Kennedy, which would be their floating home for the next month and a half. After settling into a 30-bunk barrack, they had to wait out a snow storm before they put boots on the ground.
"They took us to a street, and we went door-to-door," Van Thull said. "All kinds of neighborhoods. Rich, poor, undamaged, heavily damaged."
As they told borough residents about what how FEMA could help, they found themselves unwittingly becoming sounding boards for frustrations over power outages, spoiling food supplies and unreliable heat in the face of sub-freezing temperatures.
"We were almost a punching bag for people," Van Thull said.
Some homes were flooded to their roofs, others had their basements underwater. In other cases, trees fell on homes and cars. Scattered boats were a common sight, with owners abandoning their claims to the vessels.
For the first two weeks, Van Thull and his team worked every day, returning to the troop ship at night. He kept in touch with Melania, his wife of eight years, by phone. By the third week, they were getting Saturdays off. They ate Thanksgiving dinner by ship light inside the Kennedy.
With each new day walking their beat, Van Thull and his team got better at calming residents and helping them out. In one instance, an elderly couple lost their car to the floodwaters and could not leave home. Some were running out of food that hadn't spoiled. The team summoned the Red Cross, who took care of the helpless residents.
They got a similar response when they came upon an elderly woman who still had no heat. They got her electric blankets to weather the nights. When another homeowner still had no power after weeks, the team made sure the residents got the full attention of the relief effort.
"When we saw someone in need, we'd tell FEMA, and someone came pretty quick," Van Thull said.
On Dec. 10, Van Thull was told he would be going home by week's end. He was near the maximum time of his deployment, and the Kennedy had to ship off elsewhere. Throughout the entire effort, he was fighting a cough that for a spell worsened into bronchitis. Now he was getting his own relief.
"I was ready to go home," he said. " We saw our mission was done."
Van Thull was back at work a short time later and has since resumed his life in San Jose. He continues to keep in touch with his team, whose members hailed from all over the country.
"We knocked on every door on the island," he said. "We got a lot of satisfaction helping a lot of people."
He also took from the experience the need to be prepared and alluded to the earthquake risk here at home. He was also heartened by the way people looked to help in the aftermath of Sandy, including volunteers who weren't affiliated with a government or relief agency.
"There was this sense of community. People were just coming to strangers' houses and helping them tear out rotting drywall," Van Thull said. "Seeing people come together like that, it was encouraging and inspiring."

Jerusalem Mayor: Municipality Not Allowed to Raze Homes for Political Reasons
Barkat responds to State Control Committee regarding lax enforcement against illegal construction in the city.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not given the Jerusalem municipality permission to demolish homes in the eastern Arab neighborhoods on the basis of political reasons, Mayor Nir Barkat said on Tuesday.
"As of now, the Prime Minister's Bureau does not permit the demolition of homes," Barkat told the State Control Committee. "The bottom line is that the Jerusalem municipality can not carry out any demolitions unless accompanied by the police."
This was the first time Barkat has openly admitted to the fact that the Prime Minister's Bureau has interfered with the matter of home demolitions in East Jerusalem. The city carried out just 20 home demolitions in the last year, compared to an average of 70 to 100 in the years prior.
The committee had met to discuss a recent State Comptroller report criticizing the municipality for allowing illegal construction in area over the last decade. Barkat explained that due to budget constraints, the municipality was only able to demolish some 100 homes in a year – including only dozens in East Jerusalem.
"Therefore we focus on the most extreme and brutal cases," Barkat told the committee.
Barkat himseld has faced criticism and demands for explanations from the U.S. after the Jerusalem municipal planning committee decided to destroy 22 houses in the Arab neighborhood of Silwan, which it says were built illegally.
The city's plan was to raze the homes and construct a tourism center in their place. An additional 66 homes built without the proper permits would receive approval retroactively.
In a statement on the matter over the summer, the U.S. State Department said that the decision would derail the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians.

Terra Tips to help your garden grow:
Heirloom tomatoes are those varieties that have been around for at least 50 years, and they breed true from seed. If you save the seed from a ripe heirloom tomato, you should get a tomato that is just like the parent.
Almost all heirloom tomatoes are indeterminate - they continue to produce fruit for several weeks on long vines. Determinate varieties have shorter vines and will ripen all at once. Unless otherwise indicated, the varieties listed here are indeterminate.
Companions - plant near asparagus, basil, carrots, celery, marigolds, nasturtiums, onions and parsley.
Do not plant near cabbage, fennel, kohlrabi or potatoes.
As containers for growing tomato plants, plastic 1 litre milk bags are terrific. To use, open the top of the bag and cut two drainage holes in the bottom. Roll top edge down by half, fill with potting soil and plant seeds. Place bags in plastic trays. As the seedlings grow, unroll the top and add more potting soil. The plant sends out roots along its stem creating a stronger root ball. Simply cut off the bag before planting.
Companions - plant near brassicas, carrots, cucumbers, potatoes, summer savory and turnips. Do not plant near beets, chives, gladiolae or onions.
Legumes such as beans, peas and lentils may lower cholesterol and may also help prevent colon cancer.
Soybeans, with their high isoflavone content, are thought to protect against breast cancer in premenopausal women and prostate cancer in men.
A tip on shelling soybeans: drop whole pods in boiling water for 2 minutes and then plunge into cold water. Beans should burst out of pods. Re-cook for 7-8 minutes or freeze for later use. Purple beans, such as Royal Burgundy, are supposed to tolerate the cold well and so can be planted a couple of weeks earlier than most beans which should be planted only when the soil is becoming warm.
Pole beans need more regular rainfall.
Peas, beans, sweet peas and other legumes will be more productive if nitrogen inoculant is added to the seeds at planting time, especially if planted in an area where legumes haven't been grown before or where the soil is poor.
Nitrogen Inoculant:
Nitrogen inoculant contains a harmless bacteria which forms nodules on the roots of legumes (peas, beans, etc.). These turn nitrogen gas from the air into nitrogen fertilizer available for use by the plants. The increased yields are especially noticeable for soils with low organic matter content, low pH soils and soils which haven't grown legumes before.
One package of inoculant will treat up to 5 lbs. of garden legumes, including peas, beans, soybeans and sweet peas.
Pour a small amount of inoculant directly onto slightly dampened seeds and stir. Plant seeds immediately without letting the inoculant dry out.
Note: Due to the dated nature of inoculants (viable for one year only), they are not available until sometime in March. A note indicating back order status is included with each order shipped prior to availability.
Cucumber / melon / squash (Cucurbits):
Companions - plant near beans, corn, lettuce, peas, sunflowers and radishes (pungency repels striped cucumber beetles).
Do not plant near potatoes. Cucumbers, melons and squashes are all cucurbits.
Companions - plant near beans, carrots, corn, cucumbers, pumpkins, radishes and turnips.
Do not plant near chives, horseradish, leeks, onions or potatoes.

Single frequency interference
Brian Butterworth published on UK Free TV
There are several different type of interference that cause problems. This page deals with the situation where:
- Freeview reception is perfect or near-perfect most of the time
- Several channels are missing, but they are all on the same 'multiplex'
Local analogue interferenceLocal analogue interference is caused by household video devices that you can attach to a television such as:
If powering off the device restores the Freeview channels from the blocked multiplex, you will need to either stop using the problem device's RF output by disconnecting the RF output cable permanently, or by changing the RF channel number that that device uses. See, for example, How do I change the RF output channel on a Sky Digibox?
You can find a list of the frequencies that are not in use at your location by putting your postcode into the My Freeview reception and looking under the "Free RF channels" section.
Non-wideband aerial in some areasIn some places you will need a wideband aerial to receive all the Freeview multiplexes. For example in Central Birmingham, the Sutton Coldfield has multiplex D on an 'out of group', so you cannot view Film4 or ITV2+1 without an aerial upgrade.
To find out if you need an aerial upgrade, see My Freeview reception.

phil: Your problem is most likely down to the engineering work which is presently being carried out at the Caldbeck transmitter, a notice warning of "Possible weak signal" having been posted on the engineering page, a weak signal causing drop out in some areas dependant on the level normally received.

Hi my post code is s433uq Riverdale Park Staveley. I have lived on the park for 12 months, I have a
digital Mega Boost Arial that has been working well for the last 9 months, apart from the odd bit of
fragmentation, but in the last three days not only my TV, but other people have had problems with
complete fragmented picture loss and informing us that there is weak or no signal. This must be
a problem that is out of our control, can we please have an answer as we are very frustrated at
paying the licence fee and not getting a good service. Regards John Giblett.
|link to this
John Giblett: Engineering work is presently being carried out on a number of transmitters in the Yorkshire area, a warning of "Possible service interruptions" seen listed against Chesterfield.
That said is on the assumption that your reception is from said station? as "some" viewers in your area are able to receive Freeview from the Emley Moor transmitter (@ 27mls/330 degrees), if you happen to be one of them? then no faults are listed against this station, although its noticed that the signal path from this station suffers from multiple line-of-sight obstructions from roughly 8 miles prior to your location.

In the couple of years during which I've gotten to know Masdar and Masdar City, I've been looking for signs that it has begun to influence the building community beyond its borders. This afternoon I had a chance to sit down with Masdar City's Head of Facilities Management, Naser Al Marzooqi, to ask him in person.
It turns out Masdar City is indeed having a substantial impact on building elsewhere in Abu Dhabi – particularly by influencing the local building materials supply chain. Find out more in the short video below:
