Baldwin cottage description
This lovely like new 2002 lake front home on Reed lake, and Rainbow Lake has just been landscaped and includes new fire pit area & oak wood supplied. The home sits on one wooded acre, has great lake and sunset views from many rooms and large deck over looking the yard/ lake. Located in Baldwin, Mich. NW of M-37 and 5 min. from Big Star Lake, 8 min. from Marquette Golf course and 15 min. from town. This crystal clear fishing and swimming lake is also part of a chain of lakes. Only 2 hours N W of Grand Rapids, and fully furnished with everything you can think of except food, fishing poles and bait. We offer a pontoon with motor and gas, 4 kayaks, canoe, boat dock and swim dock. The cottage also has a wood burning fire place that can be seen from the master loft. In the fall & winter months it offers just as much as it does in the summer including color tours, hunting, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, Ice fishing, snow shoeing, special get aways, holidays, and romantic weekends.
Booking Early & (SAVE): Note: When booking for a week and paying 4 plus months in advance, paying in full (now) you save $200 off your rent all year long at both of our lake front homes no matter how many times you stay. Pay 2 plus months in advance and save $100.00 off your stay.
We appreciate all our great guests and how nice they leave the homes, and we appreciate the large number of return friends who stay with us and wish to repay all of you and newcomers with this gesture just becasue we care and want to say thank you!
Fishing: This lake is connected to 2 others known as the chain of lakes and fishing is excellent, for bass, blue gill, perch, walleye, Lake trout & pike. All of the connecting lakes are great fishing as well. All in all there are at least 156 lakes in lake county. We also have several great fishing rivers and water rafting close by.
By the way the home has a new well and the well water is excellent. Note: Refund for the summer months will not be given unless we are informed at least 3 months in advance due to most clients/guests booking them early in the year and it's most difficult to replace them at the last minute or late into the summer months. However, the owner will do everythiing possible to find a replacement guest and if successful the owner will refund 100% of the guaranteed holding fee.
Hunting and Mushrooming. Snowmobiling: There is no better area to hunt turkey or deer than Baldwin. The mushroom hunting is also superb and is one of the best kept secrets about the area. Our home is very close to nicely groomed snowmobile trails or you can just go cross country through 1000's of acres of state and national forest. The snowmobiling and ATV trails are great and being in the snow belt we get plenty of snow evenwhen there is none down state.
Don't forget the kids sleds as we have hills and you can snowshoe or cross country right from the home and go for miles and miles.
Generally speaking we will refund part of the rent paid to all guests for leaving the home as nice as they were when the came in. Example for a $2,400.00 week stay we normally refund -0- to $450.00 of the rent paid depending on if the home was left as taken. Toatally cleaned, neat and orderly. At the owners discretion and no guarantee as we are fussy and do require it perfect. 75% of our gusest get no charge and the rest will vary on how well they followed their contract and hourse rules. Left as found we actually refund $450 and this has been our parctice for the last 7 years. Please read our guests comments. (NO PETS)

Our family had a great time, just about everthing is furnished with this cottage. We enjoyed the pontoon raft and the Kayaks. Very clean and comfortable.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thank you for the review and for taking such great care of our home. You are marvelous guests and we hope to see you again soon. We have many great family's and they all enjoy the homes and the area. Even the youngest children to the teenagers go nuts over the water, swim dock, kayaks, volleyball and playing in the sand.

This was a lucky get away for our family as it was spur of the moment. Gene met us at the beautiful home ( loon,s ridge) he gave us a tour and gave us a wonderful basket of goodies! They thought of everything plus some for this home. They even had a curl iron! Truly all you need are clothes and food. We use VRBO for all of our vacations and have never been let down but, this is the first time my family wants to go back to the same home! That should explain a lot. We will be back and Thank you!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Thnaks so much for the great review. We try hard to make the retreats a great place to relax, have fun and we try hard to supply all of the creature comforts, amenaties and other items that many places do not offer. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you next year.

We just returned home from our stay and had a wonderful time at Gene and Martha's place! The house has everything you could need (loved the wifi) and was very clean. We enjoyed reading in the hammocks, fishing on the pontoon, and kayaking too! My boys loved the swimming and catching frogs under the paddle boat. The lake is very quiet and is a no wake lake so you don't have boats racing around. Martha left a basket of goodies for us to enjoy. The home made blueberry jam was quickly polished off by our family! This location works well for a day trip to Lake Michigan as well:) Thanks again!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Thanks for nice review. We are so glad you had a great time. We wish we had more time to use one of the homes ourselves once in awhile but with both of us working and owing our own business, and with Martha tutoring in the summer months we stay very busy. Anyway we are glad you like the homemade jam, Martha came up with that idea last year and we are close to running out, she had to go buy more jars and she just got $24 worth of blueberrys and she is making more. I thought it was better then anything I have ever pruchase for a store. Thanks again and we hope to see you again soon. Gene & Martha Riggs Lake & Trails Retreat and the all new Loons' Ridge Retreat

We have stayed here twice, and loved it both times! It is clean and roomy! The view of the lake is beautiful, and we had a wonderful time on the beach and on the pontoon boat! This place had everything you need, minus your toothbrush and food...couldn't ask for anything more (except maybe some wifi). ;) I have suggested this place to family members and friends! The owners were very pleasant and accommodating! If you're looking for tons of things to do outdoors (in any season), this is the place!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Hello From Gene & Martha, WiFi is on, but we only turn it on from June to Oct. sometimes Nov. Thanks for the great review and for mentioning our homes to your family and friends. It a lobor of love for us and we have a good deal of fun doing it. I only wise we had more time to use it ourselves. We do rent all year long as we have many of the same fisherman, hunters, snowmobilers, color tour guests and of course the busy summer groups. Many quad and cycle people during the blessing of the bikes as well. Thanks to all for you nice comments and we look forward to seeing you again. As always if you can think of something we could or should add please let us know. Yours truly, Gene & Martha

My husband & I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary and the beginning of our official retirement at this retreat. We rented this lovely lake home for a month, which went by way too quickly. The home was fully stocked, clean and very welcoming. The owners are very nice people and were just a joy to deal with. They absolutely think of everything to make your stay enjoyable and stress free. There is a golf course a few miles away with a nice little restaurant that we enjoyed. Our only regret is we cannot make it back to "our" cottage in the woods this year, but hope you do!!!Owner response: Dear Fred & Bonnie, Thanks you for such a nice review and for taking such great care of our home. When we walked in after you left it was such a pleasant and wonderful surprise to see the nice gift and spotless condition of the home. Thank you, the both of you are wonderful. Our neighbors also liked having you there. We are so glad we could be part of sharing your 40th wedding anniversary and official retirement by having you stay at the Retreat. That's why we started this and we are looking at doing a third one just because it's so much fun especially when we get such nice people like you. We do hope you can find the time in your busy retirement schedule to see us again. Bring the grand kid, they will have a blast. Thanks so Much Gene & Martha Riggs Retreat and the all new Loons' Ridge Retreat

I rented this cottage for a week and wish I had rented it for longer. The location is beautiful. It sets high on a hill. You can set out on the deck and look out over the trees and lake. The lake is a no wake lake so it is very quiet especially in the morning when everything is just waking. The pontoon boat that is included in the price is a terrific plus to the cottage. It was so much fun to just troll around the lake and either fish or bask in the sun. The accomodations were terrfic and everything was furnished all the way down to the toilet paper. It was very clean and the washer, dryer and dishwasher were very much appreciated. I believe that the only downside to this rental (if there is a down side) is that there are several steps to take down to the lake so you better remember everything on the first trip :) I would highly recommend this rental or any other rental that these owners have available. They are great people to deal with.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, girls getaway, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Thank you very much for staying with us, and we look forward to having you back with us this year. Your comments are very much appreciated and we have heard the same comments from everyone who has stayed with us. We have two wonderful guest books full of great comments such as yours. It's always a pleasure to have such wonderful guests. We try our hardest to keep everything like new and replace things when necessary. We love supplying all your needs from the linens, spices, washer, dryer, disposal, firewood to the gas for the boat. This year we are adding a sail boat, horse shoes and more. We find the children and the teenagers love the home and the area just as much as the adults. You just can't keep them out of the water. Our 6 year old grand son just love to kayak himself now that he has learned how. Thanks again Gene & Martha Riggs Retreat and the all new Loon's Ridge retreat Thanks again and Have a Happy Holiday Season!

string split RegExp problem
I´d like to get an array from a split that´d remove all whitespaces from words, and return me only the words. Example: var string = " test1 test2 test3 test4 "; So I would want a regexp on split that´d remove all the whitespaces, and return only the words. The array returned would be like this ["test1", "test2", "test3", "test4"]. Actually the string have more than one (various) white spaces between the words. The Editor text of this forum cut them out. Thanks. |
Split on " " (space).. that's it.. you might have some array elements that are empty, but the ones that are not will be the words you seek.
Yes, but it's easier overall to do as he requested, so that he doesn't have to worry about any empty elements.
Trivial: Code:
var s = " test1 test2 test3 test4 "; |
Or simply
var string = " test1 test2 test3 test4 "; |
@ 007julien
Actually even better would be Code:
var string = " test1 test2 test3 test4 test5 test6 test7 "; However, as a general rule, when questions like this one come up I like to ask what it's for because this kind of thing might be an indication for bad design. |

At last count, there were a staggering 37 crossovers available to GCC buyers spanning price ranges from Dh50K all the way well past 200 grand (and more, if you go mental with German makers' options lists). Well, we couldn't fit 37 cars on our cover (hopefully the 18 cars we jam-packed on to the cover of our wheels CotY issue were pleasing enough) let alone get them all together, nor would Dh50K Renault Dusters going up against loaded Infiniti FX50s be a meaningful gathering.
Motoring | Test Drives
Latest crossovers put to the test
Turbo, NA, inline, boxer, AWD, FWD... We've got an all-sorts gathering of the latest crossovers here falling into the Dh95K-Dh115K price range, so Dejan Jovanovic, Imran Malik and Sony Thomas attempt to cross off the pretenders to the crossover throne
- Image Credit: Dennis B. Mallari/ANM
- A crossover shouldn't endear itself to you, but rather simply fill a requirement and then make way for the next vehicle three or five years down the line.
So we kept it simple: the latest, greatest crossovers in the most crowded corner of the segment — the Dh95K-Dh115K range. That means we called up Skoda, yet again, asking for the Yeti, yet again, and then persuaded three other carmakers to let us pit their new offerings against the wheels Crossover of the Year. Could the multi-talented and endearing Skoda maintain its foothold in this class? Or would the Subaru XV or the newly launched Ford Escape and Mazda CX-5 dethrone the little prince?
Dejan's Subaru XV
Subaru loves to boast about its boxer engine's qualities, such as a lower centre of gravity, better economy in part with improved aerodynamics through lower frontal areas, and the undersquare dimensions of its cylinders. The 2.0-litre boxer four fitted in the XV crossover banks on a long-stroke configuration to maximise torque, but 196Nm is by far the lowliest figure here, with even the naturally aspirated 2.0-litre Mazda eclipsing that.
It's the least powerful in this gathering too, with 148bhp peaking at 6,800rpm, the heady heights of which you'll never reach thanks to the demotivating drone of the continuously variable transmission. But instead of me droning on about the subject, we'll leave the XV with the conclusion that it's plain and simply slow.
The engine loves a workout about as much as your average Trekkie and, provided you come prepared with earplugs, you may reach 100kph from rest in 10.7 seconds and go on to 187kph, with a tailwind. How about that lower centre of gravity, though, right? The XV is basically an Impreza with a raised ride height and Subaru's awesome all-wheel drive system, meaning this thing rides and handles with the composure of, well, an Impreza. It's quite possibly the most car-like crossover here, which is saying a lot considering the Yeti and CX-5 are part of the shoot-out.
Since the CVT is the only transmission available in the GCC, the model comes with an Active Torque Split system capable of transferring all the power to where it's needed, on order of the electronically managed transfer clutch which measures acceleration, deceleration, and traction. With traction control off, the XV is killer off-road, making light work of sandy trails,
rocky terrain, steep climbs and basically everything this side of full-on dune bashing.
Its generous approach and departure angles and plastic cladding protecting the bright paintwork also mean you can hit ruts head on and allow the supple suspension and meaty tyres over 17in wheels to cushion the ride. Inside, the XV can't match the premium Ford for the quality of materials and equipment levels, but it's sensible and comfortable, with plenty of rear legroom and a flat cargo floor. If it wasn't for the below-average fuel economy we got on a long-term average with the boxer motor, and the frankly rubbish CVT, this XV would've valiantly challenged the Yeti for our wheels Crossover of the Year award.
Sony's Mazda CX-5
At a time when every carmaker is working overtime to fill niches and create new ones within the lucrative SUV segment, Mazda's CX-5 could well seem to be just an attempt at completing the brand's SUV range, which also includes the CX-9 and the CX-7. However, the new compact crossover is much more than that; it offers the first glimpse into Mazda's future, especially their much-touted Skyactiv technology. It's also designed afresh from the ground up rather than being based on any existing platform.
Unlike its sleek and modern-looking big brothers, the CX-5 gets more of a bland, upright design, making it hard to believe it is an all-new model. The overall design follows the new "Kodo — soul of motion" philosophy, which all future models in the brand's line-up will follow. Much like the exterior, the cabin is plain and basic, but laid out in a way that makes every control accessible and easy to use, and the plastics and leathers are of high quality. It feels as roomy as the CX-7, comfortably seating four adults and there's even enough space to squeeze in a fifth at the back.
Power comes from 2.0-litre inline-four rated at 155bhp, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. A major factor in the host of features that make up Skyactiv, the four-pot combines decent acceleration with extremely good fuel-economy figures, thanks to the high 13.0:1 compression ratio, direct injection and variable intake- and exhaust-valve timing. In comparison to Mazda's previous 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, this one offers up to 15 per cent more low- to mid-range torque, and is 15 per cent more fuel efficient. During our test drive, we got average figures as low as 6.5 litres-per-100km.
On the road, the CX-5 impresses with its agility and crisp steering, with drive characteristics that are almost as involving and lively as that of the Yeti. However, the ride quality is not the best in class, lacking the refinement of rivals like the Ford Escape. It's got all the features you'd come to expect in such a car, including dual-zone automatic climate control, a rear-view camera, a 5.8in screen, and regular fare like Bluetooth, USB and so on. Overall, just like the Skoda, the CX-5 is a crossover that is capable of converting even the most serious SUV-haters with its clever blend of fun and practicality.
Imran's Ford Escape
As makeovers go, this is a pretty drastic one. The previous Escapes used to look rugged and boxy and this attracted many to Ford's crossover; it was hunky. But all that has changed. Sleek and svelte describes the 2013 model best. It's rounder and softer than ever before and resembles the Focus, which is also a handsome looker. Ford's 'kinetic' design language seems to have gone into overdrive here. The exterior boasts a neat character line that runs from the front fenders to the rear end, it wears 17in alloys and packs a rear spoiler, making the Escape hard to miss.
The interior offers plenty of room (drop the back seat and you have 1,920 litres of boot space) and is very comfortable, but the dash may have benefited had it been a tad less cluttered. The materials in the cabin are all top notch and the leather seats are very well padded and comfortable — you really wouldn't mind long journeys in here. In fact, you'd look forward to them, especially since you get the revised MyFord Touch with Sync infotainment system, which has been simplified and is now far more intuitive.
The new model is loaded with a host of safety technology including ABS, seven airbags and a Blind Spot Warning system. Powering the Escape is a 2.5-litre four-cylinder motor that produces 168bhp at 6,000rpm and 230Nm of torque at 4,500rpm. It's a strong engine and gets you up and running very quickly; 0-100kph takes just 9.4 seconds and top speed is 190kph. The four-pot has been mated to a six-speed automatic — a decent gearbox that shifts smoothly — which sends the grunt to the front wheels. Though it doesn't have steering-mounted paddles, you do get a thumb-actuated button (Select Shift) on the lever, which isn't as bad as it sounds.
The best thing about the Escape is its driving dynamics; it is very car-like. It's almost as if you're driving a Focus on a set of taller springs and since it weighs just under 1,600kg, it feels nippy and eager. The electric steering has been weighted just right; it isn't too heavy or light and offers good feedback. It helps make the Escape feel smaller than it is and manoeuvring it in a tight Spinneys car park shouldn't pose a problem.
Imran's Skoda Yeti
It hasn't even been a month since the Skoda Yeti was awarded the honour of being our crossover of the year in our CotY issue and we're already pitting it against three fierce rivals to see whether it'll sink or swim. This quirky looking thing has some serious competition to contend with here, but it needn't be worried for the Yeti has plenty going for it, such as those rugged looks. No bigger than the Volkswagen Golf on which it is based, the Skoda sits tall; it looks a little uneasy at first but you soon grow used to the gimmicky styling. Because of the high roof and upright seating position, it boasts incredible leg and headroom making it comfortable for long journeys.
Interior space is impressive to say the least, even in the second row and the build quality is top notch; the chunky steering wheel is a particular delight while the switchgear and general fit and finish deserve praise. Being powered by VW Group's 160bhp 1.8-litre TSi motor, which combines direct injection and a turbocharger, ensures a nippy ride. The power delivery is smooth, the engine is quiet and the six-speed DSG twin-clutch automatic shifts exceptionally quickly. It rides very well both on and off-road even though it isn't a car designed to be thrashed, you can't help but do just that.
There is hardly any lag and it never stops feeling refined. And when you go off-roading, you will be properly surprised at how capable it is. Boasting a new-generation Haldex 4 drivetrain, it makes the Yeti quick to react, easy to manoeuvre and most importantly, lots of fun. The ABS acts a bit like hill descent control by braking individual wheels and allowing it to creep down inclines with ease.
However, there is some flex in the chassis and the boxy Skoda sounds like it's falling apart at the seams when you venture out into the rough. It leans a little in the corners because of those high springs but in general, it grips and handles very well. Those looks won't appeal to everyone and perhaps it's still not cool to own a Skoda, but it scores highly in terms of comfort, performance and ability. Read our verdict on the next page to find out how it fared against the others…
A crossover is a sensible choice you make at the behest of your significant other, or because your kids keep spilling OJ and smattering peanut butter all over your sportscar. Enough! It's time to buy a dispensable family car, you say… So a crossover shouldn't endear itself to you, but rather simply fill a requirement and then make way for the next vehicle three or five years down the line. And that's why we love the Skoda Yeti so much — not only does it have an excellent turbocharged VW Group engine mated to the even-better DSG, atop a capable all-wheel drive chassis that can stamp its authority on mountain trails, but you also can't help but get emotionally attached to this curious car.
It won't be just a family crossover; it will be your faithful family pet standing guard on the driveway at night, loyally accompanying you on every road trip and camping trip. It helps that it's great value too. The Skoda Yeti remains our favourite crossover, but it's only just managed to fight off the great effort from Subaru's XV, which is ruined by its powerplant and CVT, while the Escape loses this shoot-out simply because it's too expensive for a front-wheel drive.
That leaves the Mazda CX-5 to grab the second-best spot, thanks to a thoroughly good car chassis with impeccable road manners. The Skyactiv engine affords the Mazda excellent fuel economy as we averaged 6.5-litres per 100km, despite the fact that the GCC-spec cars can't quite muster up all the claimed Skyactiv goodies. It's only let down by a somewhat ordinary interior and high price. So, while the Escape and XV can subjectively fight for third place, the CX-5 misses out on the top spot thanks to a loveable and domesticated furry animal they call the Yeti.

Road crews watching, waiting for icy roads
Posted: 11:18 AM - Road crews haven't needed to put down any salt or brine as of noon on Friday, since temperatures have stayed just above freezing. However, they are on standby for when that changes.
Number Three Magoffin County was the only team in the WYMT Coverage Area to make it out of the first round of the Kentucky Touchtone Energy All "A" State Tournament in Frankfort.
But this was historic for the Lady Hornets because in Wednesday's 73-65 Victory over University Heights, gave the school its first EVER State Victory in ANY Sport.
Think about it. In the 100+ years the school system has been around, it was the first victory in any sport.
Steve Miller has now taken two teams to the State Tournament. (Magoffin County won the 15th Region back in 2006, but fell in the first round to Elizabethtown).
On Friday, the Lady Hornets fell to defending All "A" State Champion Owensboro Catholic, 49-46. Despite trailing for most of the game and by double digits with less than three minutes to go in the game, they fought tooth-and-nail to try and win this game.
To me, that's a team that has the opportunity to play in another State Tournament down the road. The desire and passion to play until the final horn is a team that wants success.
Jamie Castle, Jassmine Howard, Nichole Fletcher, Morgan Arnett, Madison Reed and Morgan Connelley are a special group that knows their season isn't over. Playing in one of the toughest districts in possibly the state in the 57th, gets this team battle ready for the region tournament. They all said playing in the State Tournament last week gives them plenty of big game experience to help win in March.
This team is young. Magoffin County has only two seniors. So you can expect the Lady Hornets to be very good for a very long time.

St. Petersburg, FL - For years politicians have been waiting for U.S. Representative C.W. Bill Young to retire. But the wait is now over after the 82-year-old announced on Wednesday that he's stepping down next year.
"I think there's going to be a very crowded field," predicted Republican consultant Dave Zachem.
STORY: Rep C.W. Bill Young to retire
"A lot of politicians have been waiting for this moment on both sides of the fence so it will be interesting," added St. Petersburg Mayor Bill Foster, who also said he's not interested in the job.
On the Republican side, those already mentioned include former St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Baker who didn't rule out a run on Wednesday.
"I never count anything out, but I don't think today is the day to be really, for me or a lot of people, to be speculating on who is going to follow him or who is going to come next. Today is a day to honor Bill Young," Baker told 10 News.
And other GOP names being mentioned include state Senator Jack Latvala, former state lawmaker Dennis Jones and state Senator Jeff Brandes.
"I think the name you are going to hear the most is Sen. Jeff Brandes, who fits more of the profile of Congress," said political consultant Peter Schorsch. "He's independently wealthy; he's got a record as an army veteran and he's kind of got a political philosophy that meshes better with the current Republican leadership."
Like Baker, Brandes said he was "humbled to be considered" but wanted Wednesday's focus to be on Young.
On the Democratic side, St. Pete Lawyer Jessica Ehrlich, who unsuccessfully ran against Young in 2012, has already announced her candidacy. Others who might run include state Representative Darryl Rouson and Pinellas County Board Chair Ken Welch.
Welch told 10 News he is "evaluating the opportunity," but noted it would require him to move.
Then there is former Governor Charlie Crist. Some believe the one time Republican turned Democrat may be the wildcard.
"I think there's going to be a lot of pressure on Charlie Crist to run for this seat but I think at the end of the day he's laid too much ground work to run for Governor in 2014 and he'll demure," Schorsch said.

8) Justice for Workers at Golden Farm!
April 28, 24-Hour Boycott and Picket, 329 Church Ave., Brooklyn NY
We will have a presence outside the store all day and night, but the main gathering will be from 12-5pm. We have a set of speakers lined up, music, activities and food, so come and bring as many people as you can. Let us know if you want to sign up for an hour of picketing. We will try to have at least 20 people at all times.
The 1% crashed our economy, foreclosing on millions of homes,destroying jobs, and wrecking our city budget. Enough is Enough. Another City is Possibe, but we need to build it.
As we approach May 1,we will be setting up 99 Picket Lines to expose, disrupt, and shut down the 1% who rule our city.The 99 pickets will be an effective way for people to plug into the morning activities on May Day. A few other pickets will happen in the coming weeks to build for the May 1st, but the focus of this project is May 1st. This is an opportunity to fight back against austerity, union busting, the attacks on immigrant rights and the entire system of the 1% rule with a tactic and framework that is in solidarity with the mayday call to action. The recent General Strikes in Spain and Greece show us that when we all fight back together, against austerity we are stronger. The picket line is a tactic with a rich history. It can be diverse and does not have to be symbolic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picketing_(protest)
How will we get to 99 picket lines?
Good question- We are off to a great start. Right now, Unions, Worker Centers, community groups, and affinity groups are selecting and bottom lining targets. We already have over 20 locations. We have an outreach plan to encourage many more organizations to participate.
In order to get to 99, but we need more unions, community groups, OWS working groups, affinity groups, and workers to step up and pick a target.
Pick a target you want to picket, ideally at 8 am on May 1, in midtown. Can you get at least 20 people to join you in picketing? Great! (We can help by publicizing your target, if you want. There will also be some upcoming trainings on picketing and mobile tactics) If you do not have 20 people, no problem come to an OWS action spokes council to plug into existing pickets or just come at 8AM to Bryant Park on May 1st and recruit folks to join you. Either way, You are also strongly encouraged to participate in the affinity group spokes councils and existing mayday planning which happen every Wednesday at 6PM at 33 West 14th St. This tactic and project is in solidarity with the all of the exciting plans for May 1st. This action will be distinct but also compliment the amazing mass march from Union Square at 4pm.
If you would like to register a picket line and or have any questions or need support email: email@example.com.
Let's make Mayday in NYC a day to remember!

On many things he is on the money. In particular the assertion that debt will be the undoing of the whole game. We are spending a ferocious amount of borrowed money and have little regard for value for money or sustaining our success.
The book concentrates on the various types of nouveau rich that have mushroomed here but he ignored like thr rest of us the ghettos that won't prosper and can't join in the monopoly game.
Little regard too is given to the 40% functional illiteracy rate that we still have here. This coupled with easy credit makes it a mugs game because they can't readit they can't see how the lender is taking their first born as a guarantee.
There is an army of kids that will never and can never join the race for more money because they are not educated in primary school and home is too messed up with drugs and partents who are not present in their own lives never mind their kids lives.
Also nothing was said about the unwillingness and the impotent response to broadband and creating an informationally literate society. We rely on piggybacking the malaise of the Eurozone rather than using this time to upskill and push even further ahead. Its almost cool here to be IT illiterate and say that "I don't understand" and "fix it for me" Singapore and Hong Kong are so far ahead in this and we will never catch up when the tables turn and debt kicks us in the behind. It might seem middle class to highlight this but Korea has the highest and fastest broadband in the world. Korea is going places. Samsung products are now better than Sony.

McWilliams writes of a new social class he calls HiCos, Hibernian Cosmopolitans disappointed that the social revolutions they supported in the 1970s, '80s and '90s led to mass consumerism rather than radical political change.
The Bobos -- Bourgeois Bohemians -- (from Brooks's book) fret about the same things as the HiCos. Both are seeking new spiritual paths, rejecting Judaeo-Christian worship and looking instead for New Age solutions to fill the aching void that rampant materialism has corroded into their souls, and each is appalled by the vulgarity of the class below. For the Bobo, that is Patio Man; for the HiCo, it is DIY Declan, a citizen of Deckland, McWilliams's catch-all name for anonymous satellite towns where garden decking is the ultimate sign you have arrived.
DIY Declan sees Woodie's as his temple -- which makes him a very close cousin of Patio Man, who feels the same about Home Depot.
And they are aspirational in very similar ways. For Brooks, that means they crave monstrous refrigerators and 'slate shower stalls'; for McWilliams, it means they crave monstrous refrigerators and 'slate wet-rooms'
In leafy US suburbs, Brooks found that so many blue delivery bags containing the New York Times lay on suburban lawns that the bags were visible from outer space. McWilliams decides that, along with the Great Wall of China, Christmas decorations in Celbridge gardens are the only things that can be seen with the naked eye from space.
It goes on.

Brian, The "Stress" Slide is easy to do quickly and requires only telephone cable wires and a pencil or pen. There are instructions for a couple of other simple slides described at:
Here are the Stress Slide instructions from that page:
These are actually "Stressed Out" neckerchief slides, more appropriate for leaders, but fun for the boys to make too. Get some telephone cable. Cut a 2 foot length, remove the conduit and any "wrapping" string so you have just the many colored wires. Select 3, 4 or 5 of these wires and align them into one bunch so the ends are even. Bend this mass of wires around your index finger and make a couple tight twists (i.e. like twisting a twist-tie around the bread wrapper). The "hole" formed is the part your neckerchief ends will slide through. Then, using an unsharpened pencil (or something else about that diameter), start wrapping each wire around the pencil (keep the loops tight - close together) into little corkscrews. Repeat this for each end of wire. You will create a "springy" neckerchief slide whose corkscrews can be adjusted to match your level of stress!
