The allow write access for a classic reorg only applies to the table when the indexes are being reorged. If you do a classic reorg of a table, the table itself cannot be accessed.
Keep in mind that when you do a classic reorg of a table, all the indexes are automatically reorged also.M. A. Feldman

Hits from behind are a problem for the NHL because they're both dangerous to deliver and occasionally difficult to police.

WATCH LIVE: Pittsburgh Penguins at Boston Bruins
If you are looking for a break from your Black Friday shopping or your relatives in town for the holidays we have something that should work nicely: Some afternoon hockey as the Pittsburgh Penguins visit the Boston Bruins.
The Bruins enter the game having won three in a row, all with backup goalie Anton Khudobin in net. He has allowed just four goals in those three games.
The Penguins, meanwhile, are still trying to find their stride this season and have won just four of their past 12 games. They are still trying to figure out ways to replace some of the depth they lost this summer.
Opening faceoff is at 1 p.m. ET.
You can catch all of the action on NBC or on our NBC Live Stream.

New York Rangers reveal 2018 Winter Classic jerseys (Photos)
The Buffalo Sabres already revealed their look for the 2018 Winter Classic earlier this week, and on Friday the New York Rangers gave us our first look at what their uniforms will look like for the Jan. 1 game to be played at Citi Field in New York.

Thoughts on the Rangers' look?
The 2018 Winter Classic is scheduled for a 1 p.m. ET faceoff at Citi Field in New York, the home of the New York Mets.
This year's game will be the 10th anniversary of the annual New Years Day game.
NHL on NBC: Bruins' Khudobin looks for fourth straight win in matinee matchup against Pens
It's Black Friday, which means that the NHL on NBC will air a matinee game. This afternoon, the Boston Bruins will host the Pittsburgh Penguins at 1:00 P.M. ET. You can watch the game online by clicking here.
The Bruins are in a weird goaltending situation right now. Tuukka Rask, who's been their starter for the last few years, has taken a back seat to Anton Khudobin.
Khudobin is a career backup, but he's looked terrific over the last week or so. The 31-year-old has won three consecutive games (all on the road) over Los Angeles, San Jose and New Jersey. In those three contests, he's allowed just four goals.
"We're playing with our hearts," Khudosin said of the team's recent winning streak, per the Boston Herald. "That's how we're playing. Right now, I think we put everything into one game. We're focusing on that one game that we are playing. After the game, whether it is lose or win, we go on to the next game. I think that's really important. It's always hard work (that) pays off. When guys are playing like this, they're not scared of the puck. They block the shots, they're laying down to do whatever. Then there is always going to be positive result."
Here's an injury update for the Bruins:
Things have been going better for Boston than they have been for Pittsburgh recently. The Penguins have lost two games in a row and four of their last six contests. They're coming off a 5-2 loss to rookie sensation Brock Boeser and the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday night.
"For us, we just have to find the consistency, something we show at different times," captain Sidney Crosby said, per the Pittsburgh Tribune. "A couple mistakes here and there end up hurting us. We had some tough bounces. You have to work through your bounces at some point."
In six games since Nov. 10, the Penguins scored five goals against Buffalo and four goals against Nashville. If you take those two games away, they have just seven goals in the remaining four contests.
Things won't get any easier for them on Friday afternoon, as they'll face a tough Boston team without superstar center Evgeni Malkin, who is dealing with an upper-body injury. He's day-to-day at this point.
Enjoy the game!
Brady Tkachuk on life at BU, 2018 NHL Draft, growing up with hockey (PHT Q&A)
It was a pretty festive Thanksgiving for Brady Tkachuk, one of the top prospects in the 2018 NHL draft class. The Boston University forward was surrounded by hockey as his family joined their cousins, the Fitzgerald's and Hayes's, for a great turkey day.
Growing up with relatives that have played and currently play in the NHL has been a big benefit for the 18-year-old Tkachuk, who's an early favorite to be selected in the top five picks next June. You can bet that while there was football on television and turkey on the table Thursday, plenty of hockey talk was going on.
"If I can absorb that from everybody, I would be really happy," Tkachuk told PHT this week. "It's kind of awesome because it's an extra tool I get to use. I get to talk to people that have been through it. It's definitely awesome to have."
Tkachuk and his Terrier squad are off to a slow start (6-7-1) to the NCAA season and after winning two of their last three, they head to Madison Square Garden Saturday night for a "Red Hot Hockey" matchup against Cornell.
We spoke to Tkachuk about his time so far at BU, preparing for this season and beyond, and one day playing against his brother in the NHL.
Q. How's life at BU been treating you so far?
TKACHUK: "It's been awesome. I got here in early July for some summer classes just to get used to the city feel and started working out here. But it's been nothing but an awesome experience getting to meet a new group of guys in September. We've got a tight group. It's been a lot of fun."
How would you rate your start to the season so far?
"It's been good. I wish we would have been playing a little bit better right now, but it's been good. Team's starting to really pick up past couple of weekends so it's going to be an exciting couple of weeks ahead of us."
You mentioned it's been a tough start for team. Can you diagnose what's behind the slow start?
"Not really, it's just kind of about the bounces, but recently in the last couple of weekends we've been really playing as a team and as a unit. We've been keeping things simple."
Your dad went to BU. Matt went the junior route. Why did you choose BU and feel the NCAA would be best for your development?
"They're both great options but I chose BU because it was the best place for me to develop. It's playing against men [and] the NHL's full of men so I try to work on my skills here. We've got a great coaching staff, a great facility, so it was the best choice for me."
There's a lot of draft hype around you and where you might get selected in June. When those rankings come out do you pay any attention to them?
"Yeah, I see them on Twitter, but I try not to look too deep at them. I try to focus on everyday, try to get better. It's still a ways away, so if I could just focus on becoming better everyday I'll be happy about that."
What are the biggest things you worked on in the off-season heading into this year?
"Definitely working on improving my skills and strength. I think that's really important for everybody, especially myself, because you can never be satisfied with just being yourself. I always want to be better and try to get better every day. So if I can improve one part of my game it'll just be the little things like tighter stick-handling. If I can do that, I'll be happy."
Your dad was one the game's great power forwards. What kind of things has he told you about developing that strength?
"Just being around the net. Not a lot of guys like to go to the dirty areas. If I can make plays in there I can be successful. I kind of pride myself being around the net, tipping pucks, making plays in tight and try and give and go for my teammates."
And what kind of advice has your dad and brother given you as you prepare to take this next step in your hockey career?
"Every time I talk to my dad he gives me two rules: compete everyday and be a good teammate. I try to take that and try to work my hardest to get better and work to help my teammates get better and be there to support the guys. My brother has taught me to be a professional every day — eat like one, work like one and treat your body like one and just be focused for everything I do."
What do you think about Matt's on-going feud with Drew Doughty?
"I think it's kind of funny. It's funny to see because it's usually me and him going at it, so now seeing him go at it with another guy, it's funny. They're both obviously really good hockey players, so I just watch and see it on Twitter and everybody comes up to me the next day and is like, 'did you see your brother?'"
Finally, the Benn brothers got into it on Tuesday night during their game. Are you looking forward to that day when it's you and Matt going at it on the ice?
"Yeah, that would be a dream. I think my mom, too, especially would be really happy to see both of us on the same ice together. That's definitely a big goal of mine and that would be awesome to accomplish our dreams."

Keywords: Beach Condominium
My grandmother took me to Hawaii when I was 10 years old and I fell in love for the first time, with a place. Maui is still my first love and I visit every year.
Melodie Miller purchased this condo in 2003
The Maui condo is my sanctuary. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. The beach across the street is named Kamaole II and is one of the most beautiful spots in the world.
Kihei Kai Nani is a central location on the Island of Maui. It is affordable, quiet and a short walk to the beach.
Shuffle Board, Book Share Library and Star Fruit tree on site.
1-The condo needs to be updated.
2-The bedroom is very warm since the air conditioner does not go that far.
3-Bathtub needs enamel refinishing.
4-Cleanliness was so-so.
Kitchen has enough pots and pans.
It was one of the best value I found.
It is not a luxury place but it dit accomodate a family of 3.
I would return with the same price.
The condo is older so if you have to have brand new forget it. That being said of all the places we have stayed this had the best equipped kitchen, we love to cook. There is even a coffee press and bean grinder. The bedroom and living rooms ceiling fans are of great quality. Quiet and no need for the air conditioner and were from Alaska! We loved the floor tile. The furniture was great including the new couch. If you need to watch TV/movies great big flat screen. Great beach chairs. Along with an umbrella, toys for little ones, beach towels. We loved the secure key holder so no keys at the walk to beach. I could go on and on but we will come back enough said. Now for the owner, Melodie. She is great! She was very easy to work with and very quick to respond. In closing check the price, location, amenities, and you will agree this place rocks. Thank you Melodie for sharing your great condo with all who stay.
I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Melodie's Maui condo. It is a wonderful location across from one of the very best beaches in South Maui. Love Kamole Beaches...there are actually 3 within walking distance. Entertainment, a fabulous natural foods store, and local restaurants conveniently located within walking distance or a short drive.
The grounds are very nicely kept up; the Office Manager is great and welcomed me with mangoes from her garden every morning. Such Aloha!
The condo is well furnished with all you could want for a comfortable stay including all kinds of dishes and cooking utensils, beach towels, boogie boards, and beach novels! Be sure to check out the lending library near the pool.
The pool area is very well kept and it is generous size, so you can actually swim short laps!
I am a frequent Maui and Hawaiian island visitor - I even own a library card. I highly recommend this condo for your next Maui island visit.
Maholo nui loa
The location is PERFECT. Unfortunately the couch is totally worn out, and for the price having two 4" foams on top of the mattress is not acceptable.
Been to Maui (Kihei) 9 times. This has been the most disappointing condo. Air conditioner doesn't work, plug in bathtub doesn't work, hot water lasts 5 min, shower taps are backwards, old furniture, broken floor lamp, overall condo needs updating and maintenance. But I will say kitchen seemed to be well stocked.

Since it is Christmas eve and 3 days away from our first antiversary I have finally written the letter to my bh...I am going to give it to him tonight after celebrating Christmas eve with his family.
I am nervous to give it to him but am glad I finally wrote it...I hope reading it will make him feel a little better and make the next few days a little easier on him.
Former 80s Icon wishful thinking
I still carry a letter my W wrote to me earlier on in R. Something about it stuck with me. If I was in a bad place, I was able to pull it out and read it.
Writing things out allow the thoughts and feeling to be explained a little clearer and the reader can take time to absorb the contents.
Be sincere. Read it to him aloud and then give it to him. You'd be amazed how such a small thing can really be a great tool for healing.

- 1 quart whole milk
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1⁄4 cup cognac
- 1⁄4 cup brandy
- 1⁄8 cup dark rum
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- Separate the eggs: keep all the yolks and 7 of the whites (reserve the leftover whites for another recipe).
- Place the egg yolks in a electric mixing bowl and beat at high speed until frothy.
- Still beating, add the sugar 1/4 cup at a time; beat until the sugar has fully dissolved and the egg mixture has thickened.

What Is A Construction Loan?
A construction loan is a loan given by a lender to a borrower to finance the building of a new property, often a custom-designed property. This type of loan differs from a standard mortgage loan in that the lender must know the complete "story" involving the planned construction before it would be willing to finance the borrower.
How Are Construction Loans Paid?
Construction loans are usually paid out according to the number of stages in the building of a property. A borrower will usually receive from five to ten draws. For instance, the first stage would be to pour the foundation for the property and so the first draw will be given to the borrower to complete this stage. The next stage might be to frame the property and so the next draw will be given to the borrower to complete this stage. Following this stage, heating and cooling systems, wiring, and plumbing systems will need to be installed, and then in the next stage, cabinets, flooring and fixtures will need to be installed, with the final stage consisting of finishing work (painting, carpeting, etc.). Each of these remaining stages will require a draw of the construction loan from the lender.
What Types Of Construction Loans Are There?
There are two types of construction loans: (1) A constructing-only loan, and (2) A constructing-to-permanent loan. The first type of loan is when a borrower takes out a loan only to finance the building of a property. This makes a building-only loan a short-term loan. Once the building of the property is completed, the borrower then either converts or replaces the construction-only loan with a standard mortgage. This gives the borrower the option to either find another lender and/or look for a lower rate once the property is occupied. In contrast to the building or construction-only loan, a construction-to-permanent loan is when the borrower's loan is converted to a standard loan by the same lender once the borrower has a certificate of occupancy. The advantage of this type of loan is that the borrower need only complete one mortgage application and need only to close once. It is at the time of closing when the type of mortgage the loan is converted to is decided upon. Therefore, this type of loan saves time and money for the borrower.
What Is A Construction Loan Broker?
A construction loan broker arranges loans between an individual, individuals, or company that plan to build a property and an individual, individuals, or company that is willing to finance the project.
How Can I Become A Construction Loan Broker?
As a construction loan broker, you can potentially earn a six-figure income. With our high-income loan broker program which uses easy-to-follow instruction manuals, it takes about 10 days to get started in the business.

text: Yes, I'd also like to know the answer to ansempaul's question. It is immature to belittle the issue, when it's true that local artists work spend hundreds of low paid or unpaid hours every year creating the local arts. I'd genuinely like to recognize and congratulate them for their good work. Also, I'd like the opportunity use the CHARLESTON CITY paper awards as they probably were intended: as a place to find cool things to do in OUR CITY. Oh, nevermind, Stephanie, we don't need another glib answer from anyone; we'll just figure it out on our own and read "The Straight Dope" columns instead of your articles. Those are locally written, right?

The MORE Treehouse Experiences are a standalone and unique way of experiencing the African bush. At this point, only Lion Sands Game Reserve offers The Treehouse Experience, but plans are in the pipeline for treehouses at sister properties, Marataba and Madikwe Safari Lodge.
Lion Sands Treehouses include Chalkley Treehouse and Kingston Treehouse, which are located in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, and the Tinyeleti Treehouse in the Kruger National Park. All of the Treehouses are securely constructed above the ground, where animals remain at a safe and comfortable distance. No electricity lends itself to the authentic 'Night under the Stars', but all of the creature comforts are met (deluxe king-sized bed, flushing WC and running water). Guests are dropped off at sunset with a gourmet basket for dinner, as well as a radio should they need to get in touch with their Guide at any point. They are collected the following morning, and can either enjoy a game drive, or return to the camp to freshen up.
Very important: The Treehouses are booked as an experience in conjunction with accommodation. Guests will pack an overnight bag with their essentials, while leaving other belongings back in the room at camp. The Treehouse is charged per night, as a fee over and above the rate for accommodation.
We have included a little more information on each of the Lion Sands' Treehouses below.
- CHALKLEY TREEHOUSE, named after Guy Aubrey Chalkley, was once set up as a camp in a majestic centuries-old Leadwood Tree to escape the predators roaming the plains below. The 40m2 deck sleeps two comfortably and is suitable for couples. Unfortunately no children allowed. There are no shower facilities at the moment. It is 4.5km/ 2.7mi from the main Lodge and is seasonal all year round.
- THE KINGSTON TREEHOUSE is constructed entirely from wood and glass, with contemporary décor in understated hues of greys, white, black and purple. Kingston is equipped with full bathroom and shower facilities. The 60m2 deck sleeps four and is children friendly. It is 1.6km/ 1mi from the main Lodge and is seasonal all year round.
- THE TINYELETI TREEHOUSE, which aptly translates to 'Many Stars', is a breathtaking treehouse just off the rushing banks of the Sabie River. The 50m2 deck can accommodate four people, and children are welcome. There are no shower facilities. It is 2km/ 1.3mi from the main Lodge and is seasonal all year round.

Nerpinary in Listvyanka Reviews
196 reviews
impressive, unforgettable Jan 20, 2015
Baikal seal is a symbol of Baikal, one of the most beautiful of its inhabitants. Nerpa is the only seal in the world living in fresh water. It is wide-spread around Baikal, especially in northern and the middle parts. So far, there is no single point of view among academics, in what way the animal got into the lake. Most researchers are of the same opinion as Chersky who supposes that the seal is penetrated into Baikal from the Arctic Ocean through the system of rivers the Yenisei – the Angara in the glacial epoch simultaneously with the Baikal omul. According to experts, there are about 80-100 thousand heads of Nerpa in the lake. Nerpa feeds with non-target fish – Baikal oilfish, goby: it can eat about one ton of fish a year. In search of food seals dive to 200 m depth and remain under water for 20-25 minutes. The maximum swimming speed is 20-25 km / h. Seal pups are born on ice in a snow den. Most of the seals are born in mid-March. Pups have white fur, which allows them in the first weeks of life remain almost unnoticed in the snow. Adult males reach 130-150 kg and their length is up to 1.8 m, females are smaller. Seals can live to the age of 55-56 years.
Seal is difficult to see in their natural habitat because of its secrecy and fearfulness. You can see the first in the world show of trained Nerpa and its behavior in Nerpinary, which was opened at Listvyanka in June 2009. They can sing, dance, play with the ball, and even to count.
The idea to do training and education of these animals came to the candidate of biological sciences, EA Baranov, at a time when he was an employee of Limnological Institute:
"People do training of dolphins and ocean seals for a long time. But with the Baikal seals we never do anything like this. I've always wanted people to notice a seal not only because of expensive pelt, but also as a highly intelligent creature.
In their natural habitat in Baikal seals have no enemies. Nerpa is a master there, like a bear in the woods. But on the surface it can always meet a man with a gun. That's why seals are afraid of people to death. When a man stands on the ice around its hole, it would not look out onto the surface, although it promises to her death from lack of air, if there is no other hole somewhere in the neighborhood. Our colleagues from the University of California consider Nerpa to be the most timid seals in the world. Natural caution of seals was the main obstacle for us, as we tried to make friends.
Then we can already engage in learning. They turned out to be well aware of people and happy to make for them all that their abilities will let them. And they have tremendous abilities. The main thing is to explain the seal, what you want to achieve of it.
Seals do not know what fatigue is: sleeping only three or four hours a day in the evening they frolic, as if the day has just begun. They seem to be even a little upset when the performance ends.
Nerpinary Show of charming pets is important, but not the most important part of our work. Adoring smiles and happy children's laughter of our guests is the best way to their hearts. After the performance we tell them many interesting things about the largest freshwater lake in the world and the work of our scientists-limnologists. And people suddenly begin to ask questions that never would come to their mind; they should not have a closer look at dark-eyed pinnipeds aboriginals of Baikal ".
Unfortunately it's forbidden to take photos and videos.
The performance is short but it will impress you for a long time.
The most memorable event during Listvyanka trip.

An election monitoring group, Project SwiftCount, has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to correct the mistakes made during Saturday's Edo State governorship election ahead of a similar exercise in Ondo State on October 20.
A member of the National Steering Committee of the PSC, Rev. Zachariah Sanjumi, at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday, also alleged irregularities in some areas.
He said, "Critical incidents are electoral irregularities, whether intentional or inadvertent, that could undermine the integrity of the overall process if they were to occur at significant levels and rates. From 834 observers, only 40 critical incident reports were received.
"The most frequently reported incidents were late arrival of election materials, intimidation or harassment and underage voting. The less frequently reported incidents included: eligible accredited voters were not permitted to vote, while accreditation of voters took place after voting has commenced."
The PSC therefore recommended that, "Only 26 per cent of the polling units were opened on time; this compares poorly with Kebbi and Sokoto states. INEC must address this issue for the governorship election in Ondo. INEC should reconcile the voter registers and display the same at least two weeks before any election so that registered voters will not be disenfranchised.
"INEC is encouraged to implement continuous voter registration to ensure that all eligible voters are able to register and are not disenfranchised for any election in which they wish to participate."

Kingman remains in Marois hunt
Last Updated: 13/08/14 12:48pm
Kingman is one of eight horses still in contention for the Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville on Sunday.
John Gosden's colt has produced imperious displays in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and the Sussex Stakes at Glorious Goodwood to confirm himself Europe's top miler and is set for his French debut.
Richard Hannon has left in Sussex runner-up Toronado and his other crack miler Olympic Glory, with the latter seemingly the most likely runner.
Clive Brittain's top-class filly Rizeena and the Mark Johnston-trained Bow Creek could complete a formidable British raiding party.
Prix Rothschild winner Esoterique, Anodin and Red Dubawi, formerly trained by David Marnane but now with German trainer Erika Mader, are also still in the hat.

This study analyzed nonpharmacological versus pharmacologic treatment of adults with major depressive disorder. More specifically the study compared how treatments such as acupuncture, exercise, yoga, St.John's wort etc.. worked compared to that of second generation antidepressants. Depressive disorders are a growing concern in the health community since it affects a broad range of patients. In recent years more has been done to try to educate others on depression and possible treatments. The study was done by collecting randomized controlled trials through the years of 1990 through September 2015. The study utilized several databases to find appropriate studies that fit into the desired criteria. After comparing multiple studies, the data concluded that clinicians should choose between cognitive behavioral therapy or second generation antidepressants. The major point was made that the therapy should be picked based on the patient's lifestyle, desires, and needs.
After reading the study and the conclusion of the data I found it refreshing that there are ways to manage Major Depressive Disorder without the use of medications. While as pharmacist our whole business is drugs, but this doesn't mean we push unnecessary drugs onto our patients. As pharmacists we are obligated to provide the best possible information to patients in order to help them lead healthier lives. I think the big take away point it which therapy is more beneficial and which therapy is a patient more likely to stick with. If a patient is often considered with the possible side effects of antidepressants and doesn't like the idea of taking a medication. Then if cognitive behavioral therapy has been shown to replicate the same outcomes as a medication then that would be the best course of action for them since they are more likely to stick with it. Overall, I think it's important to remember that there are other options for certain disease states that require life style changes and may offer the same benefits as a medication.

Many people in New England have acres and acres to cultivate and landscape in their quest for the most perfect and beautiful property, but for those who live in the city starting up a weed-wacker or planting a dozen trees can lead to your neighbors showing up with pitchforks and torches threatening to run you and your landscaping ideas clear out of the city.
Box Gardens are not just about growing veggies they can also be about designing for an area as small as a foot square or smaller. If you are like me you want to have flowers, shrubs and other natural accents surrounding your living area.
Sketch out the space you want to work with and then start adding squares and rectangles that you can plant in. Arrange the squares and rearrange them till you have created just the right compromise between space and boxes. Remember you can make some boxes large and some small, some can be tall while others may be short. The goal is to create lots of planting options in the space you have. Remember make the landscaping design fun.
You can buy boxes already to go or if you are really adventurous buy the lumber and hardware and build them yourself. If you are going to build it yourself check out the web for types of wood and finishes and ask questions at the lumber yard.
Your boxes can sit by themselves or connected with other boxes create a continuous flow of green within your space. Think about using different heights that create a terraced or waterfall effect. What ever new plants you bring into your limited space you will get back a multitude of enjoyment from the effort.

Osteoporosis medication may reduce bone loss in breast cancer patients
Alan Wu
October 11, 2011
Breast cancer treatments can have serious side-effects on a person's body, and one of the most harmful effects in senior women is bone loss.
Most anti-cancer medications in postmenopausal women work to reduce the production of estrogen as a way to curb the growth of breast cancer cells. However, this also makes them more susceptible to bone loss, which could increase their risks of falling.
Researchers wanted to see if using a safe osteoporosis-prevention medication could also help reduce the amount of bone loss a cancer patient had. They followed 602 postmenopausal women for five years who were in the early stages of breast cancer during the initial meeting. The participants were broken into a control group who received a placebo and an experimental group that got the bone loss preventive medication, though both treatments were administered only after bone loss was detected or a fracture occurred.
After five years, researchers found that those in the experimental group experienced significantly less bone loss than those in the control group.
Caregivers who are worried that their loved one may fall due to bone loss may want to install a senior alert system into their home. This way, they can call for help in an instant if they fall.

- Artist: James Silberstein
- Genre: Jazz
- Release Date: 2/5/2008
Guitarist James Silberstein has a new CD out entitled "Express Lane." The CD features Eric Alexander (sax), Jim Rotondi (trumpet), Steve Davis (trombone), Kate McGarry (vocal), Anne Drummond (flute), Jill McCarron (keyboards), Harvie S (bass), Vince Cherico (drums) and Daniel Sadownick (percussion). The CD has already received high praise from three renowned artists and a number of writers: "A totally complete, fulfilling CD led by Jim's amazing, masterful soloing, with an array of arrangements, all with interesting orchestrations and all complimenting his unique concept for each tune. Every player here is a giant." Gene Bertoncini "Express Lane is a second great recording by guitar master James Silberstein. Wonderful standards and some very beautiful originals by James and bassist Harvie S. Express Lane is a must recording for all jazz fans who also love warm, moving melodies." Jack Wilkins "James Silberstein is a great guitarist with something of his own to say. This CD shows his unique gifts as an improviser and composer. His playing is exciting and thoughtful and full of surprises. He has also assembled a stellar cast of musicians whose talents he utilizes to the fullest as part of his own conception. This is a great CD with much depth and many contrasts of mood and feeling." Peter Bernstein 'A seasoned veteran on the New York jazz scene, James Silberstein is an outstanding guitarist whose approach to the instrument is equally informed by blazing bebop and alluring bossa novas. An accomplished player who emulates the warm tone and remarkably fluid linear style of a Johnny Smith, Tal Farlow or Pat Martino, he also demonstrates a capacity for rich chordal voicings, uncommon lyricism and a penchant for the contrapuntal stylings of Brazilian fingerstyle guitar masters like Baden Powell and Bola Sete. . . . The guitarist made a strong introductory statement a couple of years ago with his impressive debut, Song For Micaela. Now with Express Lane, Silberstein shows that he ranks among the finest jazz guitarists around today.' -- Bill Milkowski "Jazz guitarist James Silberstein gets down to business chop-chop! And, if the opening tune & it's up tempo delivery doesn't grab you......you're comatose! Legendary bass player Harvie S lends his talents as well enhancing a project that is already on it's way to acclaim & fruition. Silberstein plays with a shrewd musical intellect & charm with all that that implies. Plus, the acoustic format showcases James's melodic, harmonic, & improvisational strengths to a note. Kudos to both James & his expert group for their confidence, technique, & overall showmanship." George W. Carroll The Musicians' Ombudsman "So what is there to really say here? Killer big apple jazzbo guitarist rounds up some first call pals and sets sail for a solid session that any jazz guitar fan should love. On the money throughout with a sound and fury that echoes the greats that have come before him while adding his own colors and tones, this is simply one that should be hanging around your Ipod for those times you want a reliable date to let your ears sink into. Never less than totally satisfying." (CAP) Chris Spector Midwest Record James has long been a fixture on the New York jazz scene and has worked with a diverse list of artists, including among many others, Zoot Sims, Norah Jones, The Drifters, Dave Schnitter, Carter Jefferson, Jack Wilkins, Randy Johnston, Peter Leitch, Attilla Zoller, The Larry Elgart Band, and comedian Bob Hope. James' critically acclaimed debut CD, entitled Song for Micaela, was released in July, 2004 and received extensive radio airplay throughout the US and reached in the top 20s on Jazz Week's radio charts. James has performed at numerous jazz clubs, festivals and concerts. Presently, he performs regularly in New York City and the surrounding area.

Question: How often should I change my antifreeze?
Answer: For "ordinary" antifreeze, the vehicle manufacturers generally recommend coolant changes every two to three years or 30,000 miles. Others say it's not a bad idea to change the coolant every year for maximum corrosion protection -- especially in vehicles that have aluminum heads, blocks or radiators. But such recommendations may soon be obsolete. Several antifreeze suppliers have just recently introduced "long life" antifreeze formulations that claim to provide protection for four years or 50,000 miles.
General Motors just introduced a new five year, 100,000 mile antifreeze in its 1996 cars and light trucks. The new coolant is called "Dex-Cool" and is dyed orange to distinguish it from ordinary antifreeze (which is green).
CAUTION: These new long life coolants provide extended life only when used in a clean system mixed with water. If mixed with ordinary antifreeze and/or old coolant in a system, the corrosion protection is reduced to that of normal antifreeze (2 to 3 years and 30,000 miles).
The life of the antifreeze depends on it's ability to inhibit corrosion. Silicates, phosphates and/or borates are used as corrosion inhibitors to keep the solution alkaline. As long as the antifreeze remains so, corrosion is held in check and there's no need to change the coolant. But as the corrosion inhibiting chemicals are used up over time, electrolytic corrosion starts to eat away at the metal inside the engine and radiator. Aluminum is especially vulnerable to corrosion and can turn to Swiss cheese rather quickly when conditions are right. Solder bloom can also form in copper\brass radiators causing leaks and restrictions. So changing the coolant periodically as preventative maintenance is a good way to prevent costly repairs.
The basic idea is to change the coolant before the corrosion inhibitors reach dangerously low levels. Following the OEM change recommendations is usually good enough to keep corrosion in check, but it may not always be the case. That's why more frequent changes may be recommended to minimize the risk of corrosion in bimetal engines and aluminum radiators.
One way to find out if it's time to change the antifreeze is to test it. Several suppliers make special antifreeze test strips that react to the pH (alkalinity) of the coolant and change color. If the test strip indicates a marginal or bad condition, the coolant should be changed.
Reverse flushing is the best way to change the coolant because draining alone can leave as much as 30 to 50% of the old coolant in the engine block. Reverse flushing also helps dislodge deposits and scale which can interfere with good heat transfer.
The concentration of antifreeze in the coolant also needs to be checked prior to the onset of cold weather. A 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and water is recommended and will protect against freezing down to -34 degrees F and boilover protection to 263 degrees F.
For maximum protection, up to a 70% mixture of antifreeze can be used for freezing protection to -84 degrees F.
CAUTION: Do not use more than 70% antifreeze, and never run straight water in the cooling system because it offers no corrosion, freezing or boilover protection.
I've heard about a new "environmentally safe" nonpoisonous antifreeze. What is it?
It's propylene glycol (PG) antifreeze, sold under the "Sierra" brand name. Every other brand of antifreeze contains ethylene glycol (EG).
Antifreeze made with propylene glycol is being marketed as a "safer" alternative to ordinary antifreeze. Though it is by no means safe to drink, it is significantly less toxic than ordinary ethylene glycol antifreeze -- which may be a important difference to pet owners and parents of small children. PG also has an unpleasant taste which discourages further sampling by thirsty animals and toddlers. Safety is an important issue with coolants because of the frequency of spills, leaks and improper disposal.
According to one supplier of PG-based antifreeze, over 3,000 people in the U.S. were treated for ingesting antifreeze in 1991 (the latest year for which figures were available). Eight of them died. Had the antifreeze they ingested contained PG instead of EG, the consequences may not have been so dire.
Because of its significant safety advantages, PG coolants represent far less risk to wildlife in case of spills, leaks, or careless disposal. Because of this it can be claimed that PG coolants have an environmental benefit. However, both PG and EG are biodegradable and both may pick up lead or other heavy metals once they've been used in a cooling system. Both types of coolants, after being used, should be disposed of properly and in compliance with local regulations.
Though some auto makers were initially cautious about using PG when it was first introduced, GM has now said that propylene glycol may be used in GM vehicles without voiding the manufacturer's warranty coverage and will perform adequately under most vehicle operating conditions. Most vehicle manufacturers, however, don't currently use PG as a factory-fill antifreeze because of its higher cost (about $1 more per gallon at retail).
When mixed with water (50/50 ratio), ordinary ethylene glycol antifreeze provides freezing protection to -34 degrees F. and boilover protection to 263 degrees F.. By comparison, propylene glycol provides freezing protection down to -27 degrees F. in a 50/50 mixture and boilover protection to 257 degrees F.. Though it might be argued that PG provides a few degrees less protection than EG, the difference can be easily offset by using a slightly higher concentration of PG in the coolant mix.
In terms of thermal efficiency (heat transfer), both types of antifreezes perform about the same (though EG has a marginal edge). Corrosion protection is about the same as long as the coolant is properly formulated with inhibitors.
Regardless of the type of antifreeze you use, it should be disposed of properly. In many areas, it is okay to flush used coolant down the toilet (sanitary sewer) as long as the amount does not exceed a few gallons. But it should not be poured down a floor drain or into a storm sewer.
Both types of antifreeze are biodegradable but take some time to break down. Dumping used antifreeze into a storm sewer, ditch, creek or on the ground can contaminate ground water and kill plants and fish. What's more, used antifreeze picks up lead from solder in copper/brass radiators. Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can also cause pollution problems of its own.
Some areas prohibit ANY dumping of used coolant (sanitary or storm sewers). They also may not accept used antifreeze in a sealed container for landfill collection because eventually the container will leak its contents into the ground causing possible ground water contamination.
So how do you get rid of the stuff? You can take it to a local collection center that accepts used antifreeze for disposal or recycling, you can pay to have it disposed of as a hazardous waste (yeah, right) -- or you can take your vehicle to a garage or service facility that has a coolant recycling machine. The latter is the best choice because it eliminates the disposal problem altogether.
Coolant recycling machines work their magic by a variety of means. Some use filtration while others use a distillation process to remove the harmful contaminants from the old antifreeze. Corrosion inhibiting chemicals are then added to restore the coolant's corrosion protection. The auto makers have all approved coolant recycling as an effective means of eliminating coolant disposal problems, and each publishes a list of machines that meet their specifications. Recycled coolant must meet minimum standards of purity before it can be reused.
What are the most common causes of engine overheating?
The thermostat, which is usually located in a housing where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine, controls the operating temperature of the engine. It does this by blocking the flow of coolant from the engine to the radiator until the engine reaches a certain temperature (usually 190 to 195 degrees F.). When this temperature is reached, the thermostat opens and allows coolant to circulate from the engine to the radiator.
If the thermostat fails to open, which can happen due to mechanical failure or if a steam pocket forms under the thermostat due to incomplete filling of the cooling system or coolant loss, no coolant will circulate between the engine and radiator, and the engine will quickly overheat.
You can check for this condition by carefully touching the upper radiator hose when the engine is first started and is warming up. If the upper radiator hose does not become hot to the touch within several minutes after starting the engine, it means the thermostat is probably defective and needs to be replaced.
CAUTION: The replacement thermostat should always have the same temperature rating as the original. Do not substitute a colder or hotter thermostat on any vehicle that has computerized engine controls as engine operating temperature affects the operation of the fuel, ignition and emissions control systems.
On rear wheel drive vehicles with belt-driven cooling fan, a "fan clutch" is often used to improve fuel economy. The clutch is a viscous-coupling filled with silicone oil. The clutch allows the fan to slip at high speed, which reduces the parasitic horsepower drag on the engine. If the clutch slips too much, however, the fan may not turn fast enough to keep the engine cool.
The silicone fluid inside the clutch breaks down over time and can leak out due to wear, too. If you see oily streaks radiating outward on the clutch (and/or the fan can be spun by hand with little or no resistance when the engine is off), it means the clutch is bad and needs to be replaced. Any play or wobble in the fan due to wear in the clutch also signals the need for a new clutch.
On most front-wheel drive cars, the fan that cools the radiator is driven by an electric motor. A temperature switch or coolant sensor on the engine cycles the fan on and off as additional cooling is needed. If the temperature switch or coolant sensor (or the relay that routes power to the fan motor is bad), the fan won't come on when it is needed and the engine will overheat. Likewise, if the fan motor itself is bad, the fan won't work.
The system needs to be diagnosed to determine where the problem is so the correct component can be replaced.
Leaks in radiator or heater hoses, the water pump, radiator, heater core or engine freeze plugs can allow coolant to escape. No engine can tolerate the loss of coolant for very long, so it usually overheats as soon as a leak develops.
A visual inspection of the cooling system and engine will usually reveal where the coolant is going.
Leaks in hoses can only be fixed by replacing the hose. Leaks in the water pump also require replacing the pump. But leaks in a radiator, heater hose or freeze plug may sometimes respond to a sealer added to the cooling system.
If no leaks are apparent, the radiator cap should be pressure tested to make sure it is holding the specified pressure. If the spring inside the cap is weak (or the cap is the wrong one for the application), the engine will lose coolant out the overflow tube every time it gets hot.
If there are no visible coolant leaks, but the engine is using coolant, there may be a crack in the cylinder head or block, or a leaky head gasket that is allowing coolant to escape into the combustion chamber or crankcase.
See related question #16 for more information.
In some instances a severe exhaust restriction can produce enough backpressure to cause an engine to overheat. The most likely cause of the blockage would be a plugged catalytic converter or a crushed or damaged pipe. Checking intake vacuum and/or exhaust backpressure can diagnose this kind of problem.
In a high mileage engine, the impeller that pumps the coolant through the engine inside the water pump may be so badly corroded that the blades are loose or eaten away. If such is the case, the pump must be replaced.
Most pump failures, however, occur at the pump shaft bearing and seal. After tens of thousands of miles of operation, the bearing and seal wear out. Coolant starts to leak out past the shaft seal, which may cause the engine to overheat due to the loss of coolant. A sealer additive will not stop this kind of leak. Replacing the water pump is the only cure.
CAUTION: A leaky water pump should be replaced without delay, not only to reduce the risk of engine overheating but to prevent catastrophic pump failure. If the shaft breaks on a rear-wheel drive vehicle, the fan may go forward and chew into the radiator ruining the radiator.
Will a radiator stop leak additive really stop a coolant leak?
Yes, but only if the leak is in a component that normally responds to such a product.
Leaks that can often be sealed with an additive include radiator and heater core pinholes (but not cracks), seepage leaks around engine freeze plugs, thermostat, manifold and head gaskets, and porosity leaks in aluminum heads or blocks.
Leaks that do not usually respond to additives include leaks in hoses, the water pump (around the shaft), or the radiator cap. Large cracks, cracks along outside corners or where hoses attach to the end tanks on the radiator are also very difficult to seal.
Even if a leak is sealed by an additive, no manufacturer will guarantee that such a seal will last. Repairing or replacing the leaky component, therefore, is the best cure -- and the only one that will guarantee lasting results.
My cooling system keeps losing coolant, but I don't see any leaks. Where is it going?
You probably have an "internal" coolant leak inside your engine. The coolant is escaping into the combustion chamber or crankcase through cracks in the cylinder head or block, or through a leaky head gasket.
In rare instances, coolant may also leak into the automatic transmission fluid cooler if one is located inside the radiator. But usually when automatic transmission fluid leaks into the coolant it means the line is leaking.
Pressure testing the cooling system is necessary to diagnose an internal leak. A "cylinder leak-down test" can tell a mechanic if the coolant leak is in the combustion chamber. But to pinpoint an internal leak, it is usually necessary to remove the head(s) from the engine. The head may then be pressure tested and/or checked for cracks using special equipment.
Minor internal leaks can sometimes be temporarily sealed by adding a sealer to the cooling system. But large leaks or ones that do not respond to a sealer will have to be fixed.
If the problem is a cracked head or block, repairs may or may not be possible depending on the nature of the crack. Cracks in aluminum can often be repaired by welding while those in cast iron can be fixed by pinning the damaged area. But some cracks may be so bad that they are beyond repair or in a location that makes repair impossible. In such cases, the head or block must be replaced.
If a leaky head gasket is the culprit, replacing the gasket may only temporarily cure the problem if the head or block is warped. The mating surfaces on both the head and block should be checked for flatness and resurfaced if necessary to restore flatness for a proper seal.

Despite US concerns, EBRD continues to invest in post-Arab Spring economies
After the Arab Spring, the EBRD remains committed to funding the emerging economies, despite the USA's recent reluctance
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development [EBRD] has launched its first investments in emerging Arab democracies, in a major step in response to the wave of political changes the region has undergone since 2011, a statement on Tuesday said.
EBRD's Board of Directors, who represent the Bank's shareholders, have approved three projects, located in Jordan, Tunisia and Morocco. Although initial investments are relatively small, EBRD hopes to start a process of investments that will be worth as much as €2.5 billion annually by 2015.
"The development of the private sector is at the heart of the EBRD's response to the demand for economic improvements in the new region, promoting the development of small business, which can help to create jobs in an area where youth unemployment in particular is a major social problem," the EBRD statement said.
Investment projects in Egypt are expected to be submitted to the board for approval shortly, according to the EBDR statement

Get out of Ireland as fast as possible
Here is some advice for Carol ('Today, I am getting ready to emigrate', Letters, August 7) from someone who immigrated to Canada 30 years ago -- get to an airport as soon as you can and get out of there (Canada is a highly recommended destination).
Yes, you will be homesick at times, and, yes, it may be tough for the first year, but never once will you regret your decision. Keep in mind that 90pc of emigrants don't go back to Ireland -- there's a message in that.
And as for Alan's response: he contends that the best stayed in Ireland and that "the best, Carol, actually stayed, used their talents and worked hard to create a better future for us all".

Dodge has been hooked on the Dakota!
By Tim on
Vehicle2006 Dodge Dakota Laramie 4dr Club Cab SB (3.7L 6cyl 4A)
ReviewI have owned nothing but Dodge Dakotas and driven nothing but Dodge Dakotas. Before my new Dodge Dakota 2005 was purchased, my first truck I bought in 1996 and it really made me feel good about driving. And I continued that same feeling buying the 2005 model and am loving even more! So if you are looking for a truck out there that is relatively inexpensive, has a great look to it, and comes with a variety of options, then the Dodge Dakota is exactly what you are looking for! :-)
Best FeaturesThe fact that it comes with so many options and comes in a variety of different colors-interior or exterior.
Worst FeaturesI might improve the bedsize in later models, but as for right now it certainly is at the top of the Dodge lineup as one of the best vehicles they have created.
