Hoffa predicts 'civil war' in Michigan
Teamsters boss calls legislation 'step backward'
Jimmy Hoffa, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, said Tuesday he expects Michigan unions and lawmakers to break out into "civil war" after the state legislature passed right-to-work bills that would weaken unions' power.
"This is just the first round of a battle that's going to divide this state. We're going to have a civil war," Hoffa said on CNN's "Newsroom."
The Republican-controlled state House passed two bills that had already been approved by the GOP-dominated state Senate. Gov. Rick Snyder, also a Republican, is poised to sign the bill, which would allow workers at union-represented employers to forgo paying dues.
As thousands of protestors gathered at the state capitol on Tuesday, Hoffa called the legislation a "tremendous mistake" and "a monumental decision to make" by outgoing lawmakers in a lame duck session.
"What they're doing is basically betraying democracy," he told CNN's Brooke Baldwin. "If there's any question here, let's put it on the ballot and let the people of Michigan decide what's good for Michigan."
Proponents of the legislation say it gives workers more freedom, while opponents say a less robust union presence will negatively affect workers' rights. Hoffa also argued that those who don't pay union dues will be considered "free riders," as they're getting the same benefits from union representation without the cost.
Hoffa pointed to Michigan's recovering auto industry, saying the Wolverine State has bounced back from the recession without being a "right to work" state.
"This is basically a step backward," he argued.

0 Cadillac's For Sale
About Cadillac
Cadillac was founded in 1902 by Henry Martyn Leland, an entrepreneur and master mechanic, from the remnants of Henry Ford's automotive company. Leland named the company after one of his ancestors, Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, who had founded the city of Detroit, Michigan. Cadillac's crest is based on Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac's coat of arms that he had commissioned for his marriage in 1687.
In 1909, General Motors purchased Cadillac, gearing it up for mass production. GM established Cadillac as America's luxury car and its style and design brought about advanced technologies including a clashless manual transmission, steel roof and full electrical systems.
From its inception, Cadillac aimed to produce stylish luxury finishes with precision engineering. Its cars were consistently ranked among the finest in the United States. 1908 brought about the concept of interchangeable parts and 1910 introduced the first fully enclosed cab.
Cadillac's development of the V8 engine would set the standard for American automotive makers, marking its place in car making history. In 1908 Cadillac entered into an interchangeability test, resulting in the award of the England Royal Automobile Club's prestigious Dewar Trophy, for the most important advancement of the year in the automobile industry. This win generated the adoption of the Cadillac slogan of being the "Standard of the World".
Cadillac's body design featured shatter-resistant glass by the mid-1920s. The company introduced the first all-steel roof known as the turret top shortly thereafter. All other cars had been manufactured with fabric-covered wood up until that point. There is no doubt that Cadillac played a vital role in automobile safety early on. Certain models even featured airbags by the mid-70s.
That very first Cadillac was identical to the 1903 Ford Model A. It came as a two-seater open style known as a runabout or as a four-seater tonneau, the seats of which looked like cushioned benches or couches.
The Eldorado was a popular Cadillac line that was produced from 1953 to 2002, making it the longest-running American luxury car of all time. Each model varied considerably from year to year in body style, but the Eldorado was always top-of-the-line. It lost its unique sheet metal features in 1954, underwent a rear-end design change in 1957 and regained a convertible model and fender skirts by 1971.
Cadillac has also become famous for artistic endeavors. In 1974, Hudson Marquez, Doug Michels and Chip Lord created Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas. This public art installation consists of vintage or junk Cadillacs that show the evolution of the car's line from 1949 to 1963. The cars are propped up at an angle with their noses buried in the ground. It has remained a recognizable icon in popular culture.

The Susana de Moya Foundation is proud to co-sponsor this concert
Tickets: $15/$10 students
"A pianist whose technique, musicality and intelligent approach made a profound impression on me." — Claudio Arrau
About Venezuelan-American pianist Vanessa Perez, The Washington Post called it right, saying, "Vanessa Perez is not to be taken lightly." The newspaper's critic added: "She stormed through some beautiful works at the Venezuelan Embassy, her fiery impetuosity proving her technical prowess in works by Villa-Lobos, Albéniz, Ravel and Rachmaninoff. . . Even Mozart's Sonata in F, K. 332, had muscular energy as she raced through the Allegros. The Adagio was pure grace." Perez is a product of the same energized musical culture in Venezuela that produced such international stars as conductor Gustavo Dudamel and pianist Gabriela Montero. Praised for a bold, passionate performing style allied to musicianship of keen sensitivity, Perez has been championed by iconic performers. Conductor Zubin Mehta said of the pianist: "Her level of musical perception and artistic awareness impressed me as much as her total command of the keyboard."
Perez has developed an international profile, playing prestigious venues across the United States, Latin America and Europe. The pianist has performed not only with Dudamel and Montero (a close friend since childhood), but also with such top musicians as pianist Ingrid Fliter, cellist Jan Vogler, violinist Colin Jacobsen and conductors John Axelrod, Enrique Batiz, David Gimenez Carreras, Karel Mark Chichon and Diego Matheuz. Reviewing a Perez performance of Mozart's D Minor Concerto in Germany, the Dortmunder Zeitung called her "a virtuosa wild at heart and with a gentle touch," combining "spontaneous freshness and poetic expression." The Miami Herald, witnessing Perez in Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2, marveled at her "youthful fire" and "rapt lyricism."
In spring 2012, Perez will make her Telarc International debut with the release of an all-Chopin studio recording that features the 24 Preludes Op. 28, Fantasie in F minor Op. 49, Barcarolle Op. 60 and two Preludes from Op. 25. Even with influences in Chopin that range from Alfred Cortot to Claudio Arrau to Martha Argerich, Perez has made the music very much her own. She says: "The way I play this music may not be stereotypically `beautiful' – it may be more raw than some. But I wanted the music to sound organic and real, above all. I didn't want pretty. I wanted honest."
Among other high-profile experiences in the studio, Perez joined superstar violinist Joshua Bell to record Astor Piazzolla's Oblivion for Bell's At Home with Friends album, released by Sony Classical in 2009. She also teamed with Jan Vogler to duet on Piazzolla's Le Grand Tango and more for the cellist's 2008 Sony album, Tango. As a solo artist, the pianist's new Chopin collection follows her 2005 album for VAI that featured Chopin's four Ballades, pieces from Albéniz's Ibería and a work by contemporary composer Suzanne Farrin. Reviewing that, International Piano said: "Perez can hold her head up high in the most distinguished company in Chopin's Ballades. If anything, her Albéniz is even more impressive – impassioned, rich-toned and seductively coquettish where appropriate." Chiming in, American Record Guide called Perez a "spirited, hot-blooded pianist. Her wide-ranging expression can go inward, and she can unleash a torrent of passion."
Born in Miami, Perez was raised to age 11 in Venezuela, where she began her studies with Luminita Duca. In the U.S., she studied with noted Claudio Arrau pupils Ena Bronstein and Rosalina Sackstein; at 17, she won a full scholarship for London's Royal Academy of Music to study with Christopher Elton. She continued her studies with pianists Lazar Berman and Franco Scala in Italy at the renowned Accademia Pianistica Incontri Col Maestro in Imola; she then completed post-graduate studies with Peter Frankl at Yale University and pianist Daniel Epstein in New York City. Perez made her Carnegie Hall debut in 2004, but her first performance in New York wasn't in an uptown classical concert hall – it was at the downtown jazz shrine of the Blue Note, where Latin jazz star Arturo Sandoval had her perform his Sureña, a piece laced with Venezuelan folk melodies. A dual citizen of the U.S. and Venezuela, she currently resides just outside Manhattan, in New Jersey.
A watershed moment in the development of Perez's artistry was her meeting, at age 14, with legendary pianist Claudio Arrau. Touched by her playing, he described the young musician as "a pianist whose technique, musicality and intelligent approach to the music she plays made a profound impression on me." For Perez, "meeting Arrau changed me," she says. "He was so humble, and his encouragement gave me so much strength when things became difficult, as they do. Some of his best advice wasn't about playing the piano, per se. He took my hand and said, `You must learn about everything, not just music – live life to the fullest, all aspects of it. Only then will life come through your playing.' I have always taken this to heart."
As more music lovers around the world have realized in recent years through the success of Gustavo Dudamel and the training program of El Sistema, Venezuela is a deeply artistic society. "People connect to each other in Venezuela through a sense of community, and music is a special sort of community," Perez explains. "I was used to playing for big crowds since I was a little girl." At age 11, she was invited to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, to make her concert debut performing Grieg's Piano Concerto with the Orquesta Sinfonica Municipal for a sold-out 2,500-seat auditorium. By 1998, the president of Venezuela had awarded Perez the Jose Felix Ribas Prize, the highest honor accorded a young performer for contributing to the artistic enhancement of the country.
Since then, Perez has performed in concert halls and festivals the world over, a draw for both her rich musicality and her alluring stage personality. El Clarin of Buenos Aires wrote about one of her concert appearances there: "To watch Perez play is an amazing show in itself. . . Each phrase finishes in something similar to a caress of the keyboard, in a fast or slow gesture as suggested by the music's momentum but always harmonious and beautiful. . ." In recent years, her performance highlights have ranged from an appearance in the International Keyboard Institute & Festival in New York and a collaboration with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra under John Axelrod in Germany to concerts with the Orquesta de la Juventud Simon Bolivar under Gustavo Dudamel in Caracas and with the Orquesta under Diego Matheuz in Puerto Rico's Casals Festival.
A frequent performer throughout the Americas, Perez has performed in the cultural capitals of Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Uruguay and Peru, as well as with symphony orchestras in the U.S. from Miami to Minnesota to Vermont and in recital from Manhattan to Miami to San Diego. She has performed at the Palau de la Música in Barcelona, the Montpellier Festival in France, the Beethoven-Haus in Germany, the Wigmore Hall in England and the Gothic Hall in Belgium, as well as the famed Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires. Perez took part in the Schnittke Festival at London's Royal Academy of Music, and she accompanied Spanish soprano Isabel Rey in performances in Zurich, Dresden and Barcelona.
Along with making recordings of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 1 with the Berlin Symphony and Mozart's D Minor Concerto with Venezuelan conductor Eduardo Marturet, Perez has been featured playing on such radio stations as WQXR New York, WFMT Chicago and WGBG Boston. Actively involved in contemporary music, Perez has collaborated with and performed works by such composers as Paul Moravec, Lowell Liebermann, Suzanne Farrin and Paul Desenne.

Modern and Contemporary Art Nigredo 1984 Anselm Kiefer, German, born 1945 Oil, acrylic, emulsion, shellac, and straw on photograph and woodcut, mounted on canvas Currently not on view 1985-5-1 Gift of the Friends of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in celebration of their twentieth anniversary, 1985 |
LabelHuge expansive landscapes are a central motif in the art of Anselm Kiefer, born in Germany in 1945, the year World War II ended. Kiefer's landscapes bear witness to centuries of conflict and devastation on German soil. The word nigredo, written in the upper-left corner, refers to alchemy, the medieval "science" that sought to transform earth into gold through a process of burning.

Boon Island Lighthouse
- Phone
- 207-594-3301
- Website
- lighthouse.cc/boon/index.html
After a particularly grizzly episode of cannibalism on this desolate rock pile, locals left food and clothing here for use of any shipwreck victim; hence the somewhat ironic name, "Boon." This tiny island, about six miles off the coast of York, has been continually submerged by storms and the light has been rebuilt several times. Today its brick cylinder rises 137 feet, making it Maine's tallest lighthouse. It is not open to the public but can be seen from Sohier Park, off Nubble Road, in York Beach and as part of local lighthouse cruises.
Boon Island Lighthouse was built in 1811.

| Posted by David P. | (Maple Ridge, BC)Installed and look like OEM for half the price. This is a great buy, and I had no problem setting it up. Is a 10 min process to reinstall the roof rack, so I will leave it off until I need to use it.

| Posted by George P. | (Alpharetta, GA)I've been looking at this basket for quite some time. I also own the trailer hitch mounted basket as well. Seeing the quality of construction of this basket helped me with the decision in purchasing the matching roof top basket from Rola. I am very impressed with the appearance, construction, and ease of installation for money. In my opinion, it's the best value and would recommend it to anyone else.

| Posted by Gerrit H V. | (Copake, NY)The roof rack comes with instructions that are not always straightforward, so it took me some time to install the whole thing and get it right and snug... It is important to notice that the parts that are in the front are different from the parts in the back. If you place the wrong part in the wrong place, it is not going to work. It is a very good product, but I would prefer a more clear explanation of all small parts and a more clear instruction how to install it.

| Posted by Nicholas T. | (Dpo, AE)The product was shipped in fair time, came undamaged, and installation instructions are pretty easy. Disappointed thus far in that one side of one of the bars continues to pop out of its place. The installation is definitely correct, however the protective grip pad that is glued onto the straps has already detached. Also, upon looking at several other VW's, there is a round nipple/pin inside the area the straps connect to. A hole drilled into the strap would be much more stable. Almost there, but this item still has bugs to work out.

The pericardial sac surrounds the heart. It normally contains a small amount of fluid. Pericardiocentesis is the withdrawal of fluid from this sac with a needle.
Reasons for Procedure
Pericardiocentesis may be used as a treatment. If too much fluid builds up in the sac, this can put extra pressure on the heart. This is known as cardiac tamponade. It is a life-threatening condition. Withdrawing some of the fluid will help to relieve the pressure on the heart.
Pericardiocentesis may also be used to diagnose the cause of fluid buildup. Fluid buildup is known as pericardial effusion. The buildup can be caused by an infection, cancer, trauma, autoimmune disorders, or drug use. It may also indicate the presence of rheumatoid arthritis, heart attack, or kidney failure.
Possible Complications
If you are planning to have a pericardiocentesis, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Needle damage to an organ in the chest, like the lung or heart
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Disruption of the heart's normal rhythm
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Obesity
- Smoking
- History of excess alcohol consumption
- Use of blood thinners or blood clotting problems
- Shock
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Pericardiocentesis may be a scheduled or emergency procedure. This can have an impact on which tests are done prior to the procedure. The following tests may be conducted prior to your procedure:
- Blood tests
- Chest x-rays—a test that uses radiation to take a picture of structures inside the body
- Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG)—a test that records the heart's activity by measuring electrical currents through the heart muscle
- Echocardiogram—a test that uses sound waves (ultrasound) to examine the size, shape, and motion of the heart
Leading up to your procedure:
Talk to your doctor about your medicines (prescription and over the counter). You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs
- Blood thinners, such as clopidogrel (Plavix) or warfarin (Coumadin)
- You will need to restrict your intake of fluid and food prior to the procedure. The doctor or nurse will give you specific instructions.
- If you have diabetes, ask your doctor how to adjust your medicines for the procedure.
Light sedation will be given to help you relax. You will be awake during the procedure. A local anesthesia will be injected at the insertion site. It will numb an area on your chest.
Description of Procedure
You will lie on a table. An IV line will be inserted into your arm. The sedative will be delivered this way. The area where the needle will be inserted will be washed. Your heart will be monitored.
The needle will be inserted into the chest. It will be slowly moved toward the heart. Ultrasound and possibly fluoroscopy will be used to help guide the needle to the correct location. The needle will be passed into the pericardial sac, but no further.
Once in the pericardial sac, the fluid will be removed. The needle may be used, or a catheter tube may be inserted over the needle. After some fluid is collected or enough of the fluid has drained out, the needle or catheter will be removed. Pressure will be applied to the injection site for several minutes. This is done to stop the bleeding.
In some cases, your doctor may leave the catheter in place. This will allow draining to continue over several hours or days.
Immediately After Procedure
You will have a chest x-ray to make sure your lung has not been punctured. You will be closely monitored for several hours after the procedure. Your pulse, blood pressure, and breathing will be checked regularly.
The fluid removed from the pericardial sac is sent to a lab to be analyzed.
How Long Will It Take?
About 20-60 minutes
How Much Will It Hurt?
You may feel pain when the needle is inserted.
Average Hospital Stay
Hospital stay can vary from one day to several days. If the catheter remains in place to continue draining fluid, you may need to stay in the hospital several days.
Postoperative Care
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Clean the area where the needle was inserted daily with lukewarm water and mild soap. Do not scrub the area.
- Avoid vigorous activities until your doctor says that you can resume them. This is especially true for activities that involve the upper body.
- Return to work and regular daily activities as soon as you are ready. Sexual relations may resume as soon as you are able.
- Make and keep all your follow-up appointments.
- Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions.
- Ask your doctor when to expect the results of your test.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or discharge from the insertion site
- Pain that you cannot control with the medicines you have been given
- Cough, difficulty breathing, or chest pain
- Nausea or vomiting
- Dizziness
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Hailed as one of the most influential documentaries of all time, the Peabody and Emmy Award-winning "Victory at Sea" (1952) was made from over 13,000 hours of combat footage shot during every major oceanic battle of World War II. Originally aired on NBC, and now available in a 4-disc set, this fascinating and informative account features the music of Richard Rodgers, the narration of Leonard Graves, and the fascinating true story of a major component of the war that shaped the 20th century.
Arguably the most influential documentary in television history, VICTORY AT SEA, in the words of Harper's Weekly, "created a new art form." The 26 half-hour episodes were culled from over 13,000 hours of footage shot by the U.S., British, German and Japanese navies during World War II. Narrated by Leonard Graves and set to a score by Richard Rodgers, the program offered a remarkable look at the realities of naval warfare and the extraordinary challenges faced by the Allies.
Now, the complete, landmark series is available on DVD for the first time, digitally restored and remastered for this 50th anniversary release. From U-boat "Wolfpacks" to the epic battles at Iwo Jima and Okinawa, every major naval engagement of World War II is captured in some of the most riveting combat footage ever shot.
