I made this as a main entree for easter dinner. I doubled the recipe, but marinated each rack separately. I used a meat thermometer and took it out right at 145 degrees. It took more than 20 minutes, but I had more than one thing in the oven and I think it affected the cooking time. The lamb was a perfect medium rare, and it was wonderfully moist. I would definitely make this again!

STRATIGRAPHY OF PERMIAN ROCKS (continued)
The great body of sandstone that forms the surface of the Delaware Mountains and parts of the slopes of the Guadalupe Mountains was noted during the first geological exploration of the region. In 1904, Richardson80 named it the Delaware Mountain formation. Richardson's type section was at the south end of the Guadalupe Mountains, where the sandstones are limited above by the Capitan limestone. He included in the formation all the sandstones of the Delaware Mountains, the highest part of which is now known to be younger than the highest sandstones of the type section. As originally defined the unit included the part of the Bone Spring limestone that is exposed at the base of the mountains. At about the same time Girty81 proposed the broader term Guadalupe or Guadalupian series (later classed as a group by the Survey), which included all the exposed fossiliferous rocks of the Guadalupe Mountains.
Subsequent work has resulted in some modifications in usage. The Bone Spring limestone was found to be such a well-marked entity, so different from the beds above, that it has been excluded in redefinitions of both Delaware Mountains82 and Guadalupe.83 In the Delaware Mountains,84 demonstrated that the Delaware Mountain beds above the Bone Spring limestone were divisible into three distinct and nearly equal parts, which later were considered of formation rank. These parts are now termed the Brushy Canyon, Cherry Canyon, and Bell Canyon formations of the Delaware Mountain group.85
In the Delaware Mountains, according to the new definitions, the Delaware Mountain group and the Guadalupe series have the same limits in the sequence, but each term has a different connotation. The name Delaware Mountain is applied to a distinctive facies of dominantly sandy rocks, which projects as tongues between other units of different facies but in part of the same age. The name Guadalupe, on the other hand, is used for a time unit, applied over the whole of the west Texas region to rocks of the same age.
From the standpoint of physical and faunal history, the Guadalupe series can conveniently be divided into three subordinate time units, whose limits correspond to those of the three formations of the Delaware Mountain group. The Guadalupe series is limited below and above by unconformities and abrupt changes in sedimentation, and the three subordinate units are parts of a continuous sequence of sediments lying between. They express more or less perfectly the gradual changes in sedimentation and faunas that took place, by virtue of the passage of time, within a single cycle of sedimentation.
In this report, it is convenient to consider the three subordinate units under separate headingslower, middle, and upper parts of Guadalupe seriesand to describe in turn the various features of each. As a result of this arrangement, it will be noted that the parts of the Delaware Mountain group are separately described under three successive headings, along with the formations with which each is correlative.
In the Delaware Mountains, the Delaware Mountain group is a mass 2,700 to 3,475 feet thick, whose component formations divide it into approximately equal thirds. The lowest formation was described by Beede as consisting of "thick, yellowish sandstones with rather distant shale partings"; it maintains this character over wide areas. Its present name is derived from Brushy Canyon, which drains westward across the Delaware Mountain escarpment a short distance south of United States Highway No. 62 (pl. 3); along its course the whole thickness of the formation is exposed. The Brushy Canyon formation rests on the Cutoff shaly member of the Bone Spring limestone, and its top is formed by a persistent, massive sandstone ledge that is nearly continuous throughout the area (pl. 7, A). The ledge is prominently developed on the slopes below El Capitan, where it forms a flat projecting bench about halfway up the slope from the black limestone bench to the limestone cliff above (pl. 1).
The Brushy Canyon formation crops out in a broad belt on the west side of the Delaware Mountains, and extends northward along the west slope of the Guadalupe Mountains. North of Bone Canyon, it thins by overlap on the Bone Spring limestone, and its outcrop comes to an end a few miles to the north. The formation is exposed also at many places west of the Delaware Mountains, where it has been downdropped by faulting. In the Delaware Mountains, its outcrop has been cut by many strike faults, so that its full thickness cannot be determined. Below El Capitan, it is about 1,000 feet thick (sec. 18, pl. 6), and in the Niehaus et al., Caldwell No. 1 well, 35 miles east-southeast of El Capitan, it is 1,152 feet thick (pl. 6).
The formation consists largely of sandstone, a part of which, coarser grained than the rest, stands out in massive, yellow or brown ledges or forms the caps of flat-topped mesas (pl. 14, C). Great, rectangular blocks of this sandstone are strewn on the slopes below the ledges. Between the massive sandstones are fine-grained, thin-bedded, or even shaly sandstones, which crop out on slopes.
The formation is easily recognizable on air photographs by its strong ledges, which contrast with the smoothly rounded slopes of the overlying Cherry Canyon formation; and by the abundance on it of cedar and other trees, which give its outcrop a speckled appearance in the photographs.
The massive beds that form the most conspicuous parts of the formation consist of buff or yellowish, medium-grained, friable sandstone, which on some weathered surfaces is coated with a brown crust. Many of the layers contain widely spaced, parallel laminae, and some are cross-bedded. Many of the bedding surfaces are ripple-marked, particularly north of Bone Canyon on the Bone Spring flexure, where the beds overlap the surface of the Bone Spring limestone. Here the general trend is northeastward, parallel to the edge of the flexure, and the same trend is also common farther south (fig. 6). Many of the massive sandstones rest on an undulatory, channeled surface of the thin-bedded sandstones next beneath.
The massive sandstone beds form members from a few feet to more than a hundred feet thick, which alternate with thinner-bedded sandstones. In the south part of the area the beds are thick and closely spaced, but below El Capitan there are only four or five such beds, and for about a mile along the outcrop near Bone Canyon they are absent entirely (secs. 14 and 15, pl. 6). The massive beds thicken and thin rapidly along the strike. On the south slope of El Capitan they are replaced laterally by layers of hard, shaly sandstone. At some localities, lenses of massive sandstone are arranged en echelon, as though a single channel or basin had migrated upward and laterally as sedimentation went on (fig. 4, A and B). A few of the beds are persistent; that at the top of the formation can be traced across nearly the entire area, and some others lower down persist for several miles.
Four specimens of sandstone from the massive beds were studied under the microscope by Ward Smith. The chief minerals are quartz, microcline, and plagioclase; they have a maximum grain size of 0.5 millimeter, and are set in a calcareous matrix. Small amounts of zircon and a few other accessory minerals are present. The grain size is notably coarser than that of other sandstones of the Delaware Mountain group or Bone Spring limestone, in which the maximum diameter is 0.1 to 0.2 millimeter. The only comparable sandstones are in the Goat Seep and Carlsbad formations, in the younger part of the Guadalupe series in the northwest part of the area. In the massive sandstones of the Brushy Canyon formation the accessory minerals are less abundant and varied than in the finer-grained sandstones of the Bone Spring limestone and Delaware Mountain group.
Many of the massive sandstones contain scattered calcareous tests of fusulinids, and in some lenticular beds these tests are so numerous and the sandstone matrix so scant that the rock is more properly called a limestone. Several of the larger of these beds in the Delaware Mountains are separately shown on the geologic map, plate 3. Some of the calcareous lenses contain abraded crinoid stems and brachiopod shells. The fusulinid tests tend in each layer to have a common orientation in some one direction, as shown on plate 19, B, but the direction may differ in different layers. Very commonly the trend is between north and west (fig. 6), or nearly at right angles to the prevailing trend of ripple marks in nearby beds.
The thin-bedded sandstones that lie between the massive beds are generally buff and fine-grained, and are marked by closely set, light and dark laminations, suggestive of varves. In places there are thin, interbedded layers of black, hard, platy, shaly sandstone.
At two localities in Guadalupe Canyon, 250 feet below the top of the formation, there are thin beds of green siliceous shale or chert (in secs. 24 and 27, pl. 6). They may consist of altered volcanic ash like similar rocks in the Manzanita limestone member of the overlying Cherry Canyon formation, but no verification is available because no thin sections were examined.
In Bone Canyon, at the lower end of the Bone Spring flexure, the basal 100 feet of the Brushy Canyon formation consists of conglomerate, limestone, and medium-grained, thin- to thick-bedded sandstone (as shown on pl. 13).
The conglomerates in the canyon form several beds, as much as 10 feet thick, interbedded with sandstone and composed of pebbles, cobbles, or even boulders up to 4 feet in diameter.86 The smaller fragments are of black limestone like that in the underlying Bone Spring limestone, but many of the cobbles and boulders are of gray limestone or dolomitic limestone, and a few are of calcareous sandstone. The latter can be matched with rocks seen in place in the Victorio Peak gray member of the Bone Spring limestone not far to the north (see pp. 18-19) and contain similar fossils. The conglomerates have a lenticular development along the outcrop for 1-1/2 miles to the south, and boulders of gray limestone occur for a mile south of the canyon. North of the canyon, higher on the flexure, the sandstones of the Brushy Canyon formation rest on the Bone Spring with no intervening conglomerate.
In the vicinity of Bone Canyon, a layer of fine-grained, in part sandy, gray limestone as much as 30 feet thick overlies the basal conglomerates and sandstones. (This forms the 28-foot interval shown in sec. 15, pl. 13.) It overlaps on the Bone Spring limestone in the next ravine north of the canyon (pl. 13, fig. A). Southward it thins out and disappears in the sandstones. Near the point of its disappearance, a mile south of the canyon, another similar limestone bed occurs in the sandstones beneath. (This forms the 18-foot interval shown in sec. 55, pl. 13.)
In Shumard Canyon, north of Bone Canyon, beds of the Brushy Canyon formation that are younger than the conglomerate and limestone just described rest on the Bone Spring limestone. These beds include massive, medium-grained, brown sandstone beds, two groups of which form prominent ledges (secs. 11, 12, and 13, pl. 6). The lower passes out by overlap in the north branch of the canyon, where it has an original dip away from the limestone surface of more than 10 degrees. The upper, at the top of the formation, continues some miles farther but passes out by overlap against the Cutoff shaly member half a mile north of Shirttail Canyon. Apparently no beds of the Brushy Canyon formation were laid down any farther north. In this region, the Bone Spring limestone is overlain directly by higher beds of the Delaware Mountain groupthe sandstone tongue of the Cherry Canyon formation (pl. 7, A).
After the hiatus that intervenes in places between the Leonard and Guadalupe series, deposition apparently went on with little interruption throughout Guadalupe time. At most places the first deposits of the series, the Brushy Canyon formation, extend without break into the succeeding Cherry Canyon formation. Locally, however, the uppermost beds of the Brushy Canyon formation have been cut by channels. One of these channels, shown in figure 4, C, is occupied by fusulinid limestones belonging to the basal Cherry Canyon. These channels seem to be of no more importance than others in the sandstones above and below; they were probably caused by submarine erosion.
Except for fusulinids, fossils are not abundant in the Brushy Canyon formation, perhaps because the sandy facies of the deposits was not favorable for life, or because conditions were not favorable for the preservation of shells. The latter possibility is suggested by the fact that most of the fossils that have been collected are fragmentary and water-worn. The thousand feet of beds in the formation constitutes a conspicuous break in the paleontological sequence.
The great abundance of fusulinid tests in many of the sandstone beds of the formation has been noted in descriptions of the stratigraphy (p. 29, see also fig. 11, A), and was first observed by Shumard.87 The fusulinids all belong to the genus Parafusulina, which occurs also in the Bone Spring limestone below and the Cherry Canyon formation above. The species in the Brushy Canyon are characteristically larger and more highly developed than those in the Bone Spring. They include P. rothi Dunbar and Skinner, P. sellardsi Dunbar and Skinner, P. maleyi Dunbar and Skinner, and P. lineata Dunbar and Skinner.88 The first three of these species have been identified also in the lower part of the succeeding Cherry Canyon formation.
The other fossil groups are found only in occasional lenticular calcareous beds, and though considerable material has been obtained from some of the localities, Dr. Girty observes that "the preservation of the specimens is, in every instance, so poor as to hamper close identification." The largest collection was obtained on the southeast side of a gravel-capped butte 3 miles south-southeast of El Capitan and half a mile southwest of bench mark 4733 (locality 7656). A collection containing many of the same species and from nearly the same place (locality 2919) was described by Girty89 in 1908.
Most of the identifiable material from this and other localities consists of brachiopods, although the presence of other groups is suggested by occasional specimens. Girty's original collection contains the bryozoan Fistulipora grandis guadalupensis Girty. The more recent collections from station 7656 include some fragmentary cephalopod shells, mostly unidentifiable, but according to A. K. Miller probably including the nautiloid Coloceras. In addition, H. C. Fountain has noted the presence of abundant crinoid stems, and poorly preserved cup corals, pelecypods, and gastropods. Dr. Girty comments as follows on the brachiopod assemblage:
After the close of Leonard time, at the beginning of Guadalupe time, a marked change in sedimentation took place in the Guadalupe Mountains region. The preceding deposits were spread across the whole area, whereas those of the Brushy Canyon formation were restricted to the southeastern part, or Delaware Basin. The preceding deposits were limestones or very fine clastics, whereas the early Guadalupe (Brushy Canyon) deposits were dominantly sandstone, in part moderately coarse grained. The preceding deposits in the Delaware Basin (black limestone facies) show evidence of having been deposited in quiet and perhaps deep water, whereas many beds of the succeeding Brushy Canyon formation in the same area were laid down in agitated water, and the whole formation is probably a shallow-water deposit.
Some of the causes of this change in sedimentation have already been considered (p. 27). It was concluded that at the beginning of Guadalupe time the Delaware Basin became an area of shallow water, and the adjacent shelf areas were emergent, but did not stand high.
Because of this condition, sediments could be washed into the basin from almost any direction, and transportation of coarse material to it was probably less impeded than at any other time in the Permian. The occurrence of relatively coarse-grained sandstone in the Brushy Canyon deposits of the Delaware Basin thus does not necessarily indicate renewed uplift in the lands that supplied sediments to the region.
The coarser sands continue to the top of the Brushy Canyon formation, where they come to an end in a single, persistent layer; in the Delaware Basin no similar beds are seen in the higher Permian beds. Sands equally coarse, however, are found northwest of the basin in the younger Goat Seep and Carlsbad formations. These relations suggest that the source of the sands lay somewhere to the northwest, and that erosion of the source area continued after the close of lower Guadalupe time. Later on, southeastward transportation of the material into the basin was probably hindered by the development of limestone-reef barriers of middle and upper Guadalupe age (Goat Seep and Capitan limestones) and coarser sands could be laid down only in the shelf area northwest of the basin.
The different types of sediment in the Brushy Canyon formation alternate in rude cycles, as shown on section 33, figure 5. Each massive sandstone generally rests on a channeled surface which records a time of maximum current action. They themselves contain ripple marks, cross beds, and oriented fusulinids, which indicate that they were laid down rapidly in agitated water, within reach of effective wave action. The massive beds are succeeded by thin-bedded, fine-grained sandstone, with varvelike laminae, which record slower, quieter deposition. Toward the top of each cycle are intercalations of dark, shaly sandstone, probably with a considerable bituminous content, which suggest an approach to the stagnant bottom conditions of the older black-limestone deposition. Each cycle is brought to an end by another period of channeling and deposition of coarser sandstone.
These rude cyclical units cannot be traced far along the outcrops, and it is questionable whether any one is of more than local extent. They indicate, however, a regular fluctuation in conditions of sedimentation from agitated to quiet water but probably with no accompanying changes in depth.
The ripple marks in the massive sandstones have nearly the same northeastward trend as the Bone Spring flexure, which formed the shore in lower Guadalupe time (fig. 6). They were evidently shaped by movements of the water oriented at right angles to the shore. These movements might have been undertow currents, caused by the return along the bottom of water that had previously been piled up on the shore by the waves. Or they might have been the to-and-fro oscillation of water within the waves themselves. Movements of the first sort would form current ripples, and of the second sort oscillation ripples.90 The marks in the Brushy Canyon formation appear to have a symmetrical cross section, which indicates they are oscillation rather than current ripple marks. However, no secondary crests are found, such as occur in many oscillation ripples. Current movements are indicated by the channeling of the associated deposits.
The fusulinid tests, which are commonly strung out in a northwestward direction, at right angles to the trend of the ripples, were probably placed in this position by the same oscillation movements of the water that produced the ripples. After the death of the animals, their many-chambered tests probably had considerable buoyancy, and were easily turned in the direction of least resistance to water motion; that is, elongate parallel to the movement.
The sea bottom during lower Guadalupe time was probably inhospitable to many forms of life, because of its sandy surface, and the probable agitation and turbidity of the overlying water. Shells of whatever bottom fauna existed were largely broken up before they could be fossilized. Whatever the conditions of life for most of the fauna, the lower Guadalupe sea was definitely favorable to the existence of fusulinids and the preservation of their tests as indicated by the enormous numbers of the tests that were enclosed in the sediments.

From Texas Tech Athletics:
Texas Tech freshman Victoria Hinneburg was named the Big 12 Preseason Co-Freshman of the Year on Tuesday, marking the first time a Red Raider has ever garnered the award.
Hinneburg, a native of Leipzig, Germany, is just the third Red Raider to earn a conference preseason award, joining Colleen Smith (1999) and Justine Young (2010) who were both named the league's Newcomer of the Year.
"It is a nice sense of growth to have Victoria recognized by the Big 12 coaches," Tech head coach Don Flora said. "She is an athlete who brings an elite skill set to the program. We believe this is a quality sign of the programs continued progress."
Hinneburg will provide the Red Raiders additional length and immediate offensive presence at the net as she arrives in Lubbock as one of the top overseas prospects in the 2013 class.
The 6-4 freshman competed for several of the top youth volleyball clubs in her native Germany where she was part of three youth championship teams, including the 2012 squad that was part of the prestigious Dresdner volleyball organizations.
Hinneburg shared the award with Kansas State's Katie Brand while Texas' Haley Eckerman was tabbed the conference preseason favorite for Player of the Year. The awards along with the All-Big 12 preseason team was determined by a vote of the conference coaches.
The Red Raiders report for the 2013 season this Friday evening with a team meeting prior to its first set of practices on Saturday afternoon. Tech opens the season on Aug. 30 at the Wildcat Invitational hosted by Weber State.
The Big 12 will announce its preseason poll on Wednesday.

|Russula emetica
|Scientific classification
|Type genus
The Russulaceae are a family of fungi in the order Russulales. According to a 2008 estimate, the family contains 1243 species.[1] Its species typically have fruit bodies with friable, chalk-like stalks, that break with a distinct crack, somewhat like a carrot but with porous flesh (see below). Microscopically, the cells are not all long thin hyphae, which would provide strength and more fibrous appearance when broken. Instead, the flesh contains also many large spherical cells ("sphaerocysts"), which give rise to the macroscopic consistency.
The family is dominated by two well-known genera:
- The genus Russula, sometimes known as brittlegills, comprises around 750 species, the majority of which are quite difficult to identify. They have splitting gills and do not exude a milky substance at cut surfaces, contrarily to the genus Lactarius. There are several edible species (Russula vesca, Russula virescens or Russula aurata).
- The genus Lactarius, or milk-caps, characterised by caps and stalks that exude a milky substance ("latex") when pressed or cut and lactiferous, gloeoplerous hyphae, is a large genus of mycorrhizal fungi. When cut, the mushroom exudes a kind of milky liquid. This liquid may be orange, red, lilac, white or yellow, and may develop its final colour only after exposure to air. Certain ones, such as L. deliciosus are edible and delicious, appreciated in Mediterranean areas.
Other genera in the Russulaceae include Boidinia, Cystangium, Multifurca, and Pseudoxenasma.
Distinctive flesh consistency[edit]
Due to the presence of large spherical cells which can be seen under the microscope, an important characteristic to distinguish the Russulaceae from other types of mushrooms is the consistency of the stipe. In Russula and Lactarius, this breaks like the flesh of an apple, whilst in most other families it only breaks into fibres. The pictures compare the broken stipe of a Lactarius vellereus, with that of Suillus variegatus, a member of the Boletaceae.
Members of both Lactarius and Russula are subject to parasitization by the Lobster mushroom (Hypomyces lactifluorum). This ascomycete replaces the flesh of the host mushroom, rendering it into a choice edible, though it can be peppery if the host is a species like Lactarius piperatus.
- The section on "Distinctive flesh consistency" was taken from the German article.

Economic Fundamentals - Money Supply
Prior to determining an appropriate economic policy, economists must have an idea of the amount of money that is in circulation, along with the amount of other types of assets that will provide access to cash. Economists gauge the money supply using three measures. They are:M2
M1 is the largest and most liquid measure of the nation's money supply and it includes:
M1 is the largest and most liquid measure of the nation's money supply and it includes:
- Cash
- Demand deposits (Checking accounts)
- Money market instruments
- Time deposits of less than $100,000
- Negotiable CD exceeding $100,000
- Overnight repurchase agreements
Includes all of the measures in M1 and M2 plus
- Time deposits greater than $100,000
- Repurchase agreements with maturities greater than 1 day
Disintermediation occurs when people take their money out of low yielding accounts offered by financial intermediaries or banks and invest money in higher yielding investments.

1. Save the Fire Station in Broad Channel
The Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department and Ambulance Corp. has protected the life and property of local residents since 1905. Departments across the country have helped replace the fire trucks and ambulances destroyed by Hurricane Sandy, but the fire station was flooded with six feet of water and is in desperate need of repair.
The group is trying to raise $55,000 so that it can replace damaged siding/sheetrock/insulation, conduct mold remediation, repair the engine room, replace the boiler and electric wiring that was submerged in salt water. Please help the Broad Channel Volunteer Fire Department to serve Broad Channel in a safe building.

Thanksgiving is here and it's amazing to me how hard people are working to make it a day of gratitude - and delicious turkey - for everyone in New York City.
This week I posted a list of Thanksgiving-related volunteer opportunities, but there's still much to be done if you and your family want to spend some of the day helping other people.
1. Occupy Sandy needs drivers to run meals to distribution sites. They also need hotel pans, tents, and other supplies . Check out their site for more information.
2. An Occupy Sandy guy named Fab says he wants live music for a Thanksgiving block party he's organizing today in Sheepshead Bay at the corner of Emmons and Brown. Due to the lack of power, you gotta be an acoustic act that can get loud, but Sheepshead Bay needs some love. If you want to play or help in the neighborhood, contact Fab at 575-779-5899
3. It them a long time (LONG time) but the Red Cross is here and doing their part. In some places they're absent and in some places - like Sheepshead Bay and Coney Island - they've been the primary force serving hot meals. They're hosting a three-day people-feeding event (which they call a "bulk distribution event" for that feedlot feel…) starting today; and they need volunteers. You can sign up here.
4. Today, Coney Recovers needs volunteers to help distribute Thanksgiving meals to thousands of residents. Please RSVP here to volunteer. (via Bill DiBlasio)
5. The Imperial Room (located Inwood, NY on the Queens/Long Island border) will be hosting a Thanksgiving Dinner for their neighbors in the Rockaways. Volunteers are needed to help set-up and serve dinner. Please RSVP here to volunteer. (via Bill DiBlasio)
6. Post a message of support to first responders who helped people survive the storm. The Public Advocate's office put together a site where you can post messages of support and gratitude. It's very touching so only read all the messages if you want to get all verklempt. (If you have a heart of stone then this won't be a problem.) Wouldn't it be a lovely Thanksgiving day activity to sit with the kids and write a nice note to the total badasses who saved this city? Some suggestions… the National Guard, the volunteers who came 'round with cupcakes, your neighbors who worked at the Park Slope Armory, the Occupy Sandy guy who put you in a car to the Rockaways, THE SANITATION DEPARTMENT WORKERS WHO ARE GETTING NO CREDIT BUT WHO HAVE BEEN THE MOST AMAZING PEOPLE EVER, Johnny Bravo for offering Red Bull and succor to the masses.
1. The Thanksgiving fly around
So much to do before the holiday… buying food, booking tickets, renting cars, peeling all that damn squash. And sharing the holiday with your fellow New Yorkers. Here are a few opportunities that some of you may be able to work into this hectic week.
1. Fall food crawl (via Food to Eat)
FoodtoEat is hosting a Sandy benefit crawl today from 12-4pm to get people to restaurants that need your business. Tickets can be purchased online or at a Evelyn Drinkery: 171 Ave C.
Sales go to a donation pot that will be split between participating venues and used for their recovery efforts.
"Food Crawlers" receive a map of the participating venues after they buy a ticket, and from 3-4pm everyone meets at Kafana for an "after party" including entertainment and a raffle.
Buy your ticket online here.
I wondered about this yesterday as stories came in about lung killing mold and seniors with medical problems trapped in public housing projects. How long will it be before Sandy morphs from natural disaster into a public health crisis?
Now a volunteer with Occupy Sandy name Eric Moed, an architect who lives in Clinton Hill, has been tweeting at public officials about the terrible conditions in the Coney Island housing projects. He tells the Huffington Post:
The situation in public housing projects in Coney Island, Brooklyn remains a "humanitarian crisis" in which the government and the Red Cross have been nearly completely absent… Moed says all of the supermarkets on Coney Island have been flooded or looted.
Catherine O'Leary, a registered nurse from Mamaroneck, and Matt Richter, a photographer from NYC, spent Sunday in Coney Island, which has been relatively forgotten when compared with the Rockaways and Staten Island (which, despite the press and the widespread volunteer efforts and the celebrities, are still utter disaster area shit shows).
If you've gone into the projects in the Rockaways or Coney Island, then you get what they heard and smelled and saw. Richter's stunning photos (from Coney and other places) are here. O'Leary's entire account is here (and it's a very good read). Below is an excerpt.
Let me explain, this was not your typical day of providing home health aid. The project buildings are still without electricity! The hallways are completely dark and there is stagnant sea water still in the buildings. It is COLD! The elevators don't work and you must climb cold, dark stairwells with only a small flashlight. The smell of gas is overpowering as remaining residents use stove top flames to try to get warm. The wonderful people I met had simple requests for hot food and more water. They asked over and over "when would help be coming, why had they been forgotten". I monitored blood pressures and assessed blood sugars – but felt helpless when I couldn't offer refills of medications or insulin. Most of residents were elderly or disabled – some immobile or wheelchair bound. There were infant babies wrapped in blankets with coughs and no way to get warm. I spent most of the day lugging buckets and cases of water up numerous dark stairwells. I gave hugs and listened to stories from lonely, disenfranchised individuals who just want to be heard.
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?
"The legendary Coney Island roller coaster was covered with some ocean muck, but the city-owned ride survived Hurricane Sandy's wrath unscathed, according to operator Central Amusements."

1. Head to Coney Island (via everywhere)
If you've been to Coney Island and looked beyond Luna Park you've no doubt noticed that high rises dominate the landscape. Those building blocks are full of elderly and disabled residents who need your help. An Occupy Sandy volunteer is predicting a humanitarian crisis could consume the area, and frankly I don't think he's wrong.

Where did you grow up?
I grew up in New Jersey. We spent a lot of time at the shore. It was my favorite place. I remember the sand being so hot and the waves being freezing cold. We always had to wear a hat.
What is your earliest memory of writing/drawing?
I don't think I got the writing bug before I was in college. I won the best short story in my children's literature class. It was entitled Freckle Face! Later, after I was married, I would dabble in short poems from time to time.
What inspired you to write/illustrate your first book?
After I had been teaching for a few years, I self-published a book about our city of Toledo, OH, entitled, If They Could See Me Now! I also illustrated it. I felt our city had some wonderful history and I wanted children to know more about it.
Do you use your childhood as inspiration?
I remember all my emotions, good and bad, as a child. I was afraid of the dark. I was painfully shy. I remember the excitement of Christmas, and the joy of getting a new baby brother. In some ways, I am still six years old inside.
What books from your childhood have most influenced your work? What about adult titles?
I loved all books, from nursery rhymes and fairy tales to The Arabian Nights and Uncle Wiggley's Fortune. Dad read to us every night. I enjoy a wide variety of adult books, but probably a good mystery tops the list.
What are your hobbies and interests besides reading and books?
Good jazz, Italian cooking and tennis!
Who are a couple of your favorite author/illustrators? What is it about their work that inspires and interests you?
My favorite author/illustrator is Douglas Florian. His poetry is amazingly clever and silly. Just what kids love. I've memorized a few of his books because I read them so many times to my kindergarteners.
What one or two words of advice would you give for young authors/illustrators?
Write for the fun of it. Don't expect it to be perfect at first. The more you write, the better it will be.
Elsa Knight Bruno; Illustrated by Jenny Whitehead
Punctuation marks come alive in this clever picture book featuring fourteen playful poems. Periods stop sentences in a baker's shop, commas help a train slow down, quotation marks tell...

Here are the
best direct selling
tips to get you started on you way to the level of professionalism that will increase your sales and fun. Maintaining a level of professionalism will help you sell more, and as your sales increase you learn how to find the best people to sell to, you learn to qualify your prospects quickly and smoothly, you recognize buying signs and you enjoy all of it.
Be Prepared
Before you go out to make a sales presentation, you must prepare yourself mentally and physically. Dress appropriately. Give yourself an attitude check. Clear your mind of everything except the presentation you are going to give. Review notes or information that may be vital within a few hours of meeting with your prospects. Doing your homework is one of the essential direct selling tips that will help you pass the test every time. People want to do business with professionals.
Make a Good First Impression
Overcoming a bad first impression is all most impossible, you will never hear how someone made a bad first impression and then went onto make a big sale or land a major account. No matter what you sell or who you prospect is making a good first impression is important. Going in confident and handling, the initial rapport-setting stage properly goes a long way toward getting a sale.
The Most Important of the Direct Selling Tips: Determine Quickly Whether You Can Help Your Prospect
By asking a few simple questions, you can determine quickly if the person you are meeting with is right for your offering. By doing this you maximize your efforts by only continuing presentations only with someone who can make a decision. Making a quick determination also shows the other person the courtesy of not wanting to waste his or her time with detailed information that is of no benefit to him or her.
Give Every Presentation All You've Got
Never underestimate your prospect. If you do, you are showing a lack of respect for him or her, because it will eventually become clear, and when it does, you will lose whatever ground you just gained towards a sale. Do not take short cuts.
By making the presentation as if it is the most important thing in your life at that moment, you are showing the decision-makers that you are sincere about their needs and that they are important to you. People will usually be what you expect them to be, so expect your prospect to be vital to your overall success in life, and treat them with the proper amount of respect.
When your prospect voices concerns about something, pause, think about what was said or what you may have done to trigger the comment. Then carefully and thoughtfully address the concern. What I understand from your comment, Mary, is that you are concerned about animal testing, is that correct? If it is, I assure you that our cosmetic company does no animal testing. To drive home the point, give the prospect a copy of any company documentation that addresses the concern.
Confirm Everything
Miscommunication costs people lots of money, time and effort every year. Missed appointments, flights, or phone calls can destroy in minutes what may have taken days or weeks to build. Inattention to details, wrong orders and wrong people handling important task takes it toll as well. Taking just a few minutes to confirm and reconfirm everything will bring you more success.
Ask for the Decision
This is a crucial direct selling tip. This is your goal, if you believe that your offer will benefit your prospect, ask for the decision. You have nothing to lose by asking your prospect for a decision. If he or she is not ready to make a decision and that is what you find out by asking, great. However, if he or she is ready to make a decision and you do not ask, you lose everything. If you believe in the good of your product or service, you should not be afraid to ask the other party to commit his or her time, money, effort to your product, service or cause.
Hesitating to ask for the sale is an indication of doubt, and as the person in the persuader's seat you should not be the one having doubts.
Tell Your Prospects about Others
Not many people want to be guinea pigs. They do not want to be the first to try something; they want to know that others have preceded them. By sharing experiences, you have had with others just like them, others who have bought your product or service or are committed to the same project you give your prospects permission to be like those other s and invest in what you are selling.
They will recognize the landscape and understand that they are not going into uncharted waters. Overcoming the fears of your prospects will take you far in convincing or persuading people, especially if you can use examples of people they know.
Work at it Constantly
The most successfully people in the world rarely take time off from what makes them successful. This does not mean that you should become a workaholic, but one can certainly think about new strategies, new ideas and new people to contact. Even when you are lying on a beach somewhere for a well deserved rest.
By living and breathing what you believe in the most, the best ideas will be drawn to you. You will constantly have your antenna up and tuning into the best direct selling tips for you.
Be a Product of the Product
If you believe in what you are doing, you must personally be a part of it. If you are selling, color- cosmetics do not be caught without your lipstick.
If you sell home security systems, you had better have one in your home. If you market freelance graphic design, your business card had better be creative.

The victims are the driver and passenger in a car rear-ended by a semi on US-127 Tuesday afternoon.
LANSING, Mich. (WLNS)- The Michigan State Senate met Wednesday, but did not vote on expanding the Medicaid Health Insurance Program for 320,000 needy families in Michigan.
There were several hundred demonstrators on the capitol steps, and protestors in the Senate Gallery all hoping for a Senate vote.
The Senate democratic leader blamed the republicans for the vote not coming. "The republicans stand alone in their ignorance and abstinence," said Sen. Gretchen Whitmer.
It was an unusual scene in the Michigan State Senate that was taped off like a crime scene. All the chairs, the voting board and other amenities for the Senators were gone until the new carpeting is set later this summer.
So as 29 senators stood around, the democrats pressed for a vote while the republicans called for more time to study the bill.
"It was pure politics...the nature of the game," said Senator Randy Richardville. The Senate GOP leader says he expects a committee vote by the end of July.
Congressman John Dingell, who sponsored the National Health Care Law in Congress believes money and lives are in play. "This is going to save Michigan 470,000 of them," said Rep. Dingell.
So the talking will continue, but the voting will wait for another day.

A stuffed rabbit 'bleeds' sawdust. A baguette sprouts nails and mutates into a hedgehog... Czech surrealist Jan Švankmajer filters lewis Carroll's nonsense narrative through the anti-logic of a child's imagination. His alice's (Kristýna Kohoutová) adventures skim all the familiar riffs, but Švankmajer's stream of consciousness flows against a live-action/ stop-motion dreamscape alive with the undead, amplified by startling sound design. it's less animation, more reanimation. The hi-def version scrubs up two decades of visual fuzz, but the extras are padding.
