Dance review
Bokaer and Daniel Arsham's 'Occupant' packs powerful final punch
The future looks bleak in choreographer Jonah Bokaer and visual artist Daniel Arsham's dark and often opaque Occupant, which had its world premiere over the weekend at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts.
Latin music
Totó La Momposina, Colombia's diva of tradition, performs in Hollywood
Totó La Momposina, the great singer of Colombian traditional music, received a lifetime achievement award at the Latin Grammys last month. But the 73-year old artist said the prestigious prize belonged less to her than to the centuries-old culture and music she represents – and the generations of Colombians who created it.
Gossip extra
Luis Miguel sells Bal Harbour condo at a loss
Mexican superstar singer Luis Miguel got burned playing the Bal Harbour real estate game this year.
Jonah Bokaer and Daniel Arsham's 'Occupant' is art that moves
Jonah Bokaer makes dances. Daniel Arsham makes visual art, primarily sculpture. What they make together is a singular, startling fusion of physical and conceptual, human and object, movement and image. Even amid the flood of art unleashed during Miami Art Week, Bokaer and Arsham's work should stand out.
Knight Arts Challenge winners show South Florida's cultural strength, diversity
They range from an old-fashioned traveling medicine show to a cutting edge interactive virtual reality art project, from reviving the work of a near-forgotten poet to dances at the reviving Miami Marine Stadium, from programs bringing foreign artists to South Florida and Miami artists into the city's schools and neighborhoods.

Calle 13 and WikiLeaks' Assange go 'Multi_Viral'
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange caused a political firestorm and raised potent questions about censorship and information control with his massive releases of government data. Now he's communicating through music. Assange speaks up on Multi_Viral, a raging rap-rock song created by Rene Perez, or Residente, frontman and songwriter for the activist musical duo Calle 13, released online this week.
Friends of Nature
Environmentally focused FON Fest this weekend features live music, film, workshops
A couple years ago, Ines Galinda and her friend Oscar Diaz were horrified by a documentary they saw on the BP oil spill. Instead of pushing their reaction aside, or signing an online petition, they decided to do something more to get people to pay attention to what they see as a dangerously growing stream of environmental disasters.
Broadway legend at Miami City Ballet
Saturday night at Miami City Ballet, there were plenty of dancers stalking and spinning around the stage of the troupe's studio theater. But the dancer who was the star of the show hardly moved at all. She didn't have to. Chita Rivera, the Broadway legend who played Anita in the original production of West Side Story, charmed the adoring audience with sass, stories and pungent opinions on TV talent shows.

Miami City Ballet opens season with edgy, electrifying 'Polyphonia'
Miami City Ballet added a striking new facet to its profile with the startling, off-kilter architecture of Christopher Wheeldon's Polyphonia on its season-opening program. But it was Serenade, the nearly 80-year-old Balanchine work that has been a company mainstay, that got the strongest applause Friday night at the Adrienne Arsht Center's Ziff Ballet Opera House.

Robi Draco Rosa brings renewed 'Vida' for Miami concert
Robi Draco Rosa has always dedicated himself to music and the creative and existential risks that inspired him, whether it was quitting Menudo, one of the world's most popular bands, to pursue his own unconventional music; ingesting perilous amounts of drugs and alcohol, or flouting industry expectations in order to pursue a resolutely independent, and usually unprofitable, path.

Flamenco Intimo, a concert by Venezuelan flamenco dancer Siudy Garrido scheduled for Saturday at Miami-Dade County Auditorium, has been postponed.

A typical updated 40'x500' Broiler house in Alabama can consume 450,000 gallons or more of potable water a year for bird consumption and operation of 6-inch evaporative cooling systems. A four house farm would then consume 1.8 to 2 million gallons per year. In addition to meeting the total water consumption per year, it is critical to meet the peak flow rate demand, which in hot weather can be as much as 50-60 gpm (gallons per minute) for the same four houses. We often find problems where farms have trouble meeting the peak demand rate due to undersized water plumbing systems in hot weather and performance suffers.

New Newsletter #78 -"Is Poor Drinker Management Costing You Fuel Dollars?" - Download Newsletter Here
Proper drinker management takes very little additional time, yet offers quite a few benefits. Proper environment will always be a key factor in successful broiler production, and drinker management plays a key role in ensuring optimal bird growth in a proper environment. Don't let poor drinker management force you to increase your ventilation rates, add de-caking time, and add overall cost to your flocks this winter.

Fairy Godmother: Thu Nov 26, 2009 Corrie Episode Review
The factory girls are aghast to see Carla at Underworld. I suppose that answers their questions as to who will be running the place. Carla announces that she's their fairy godmother. That's not what I'd call her, but sure. Carla demeans Sally for trying to be the PA, and tells her to get back on her machine. The detective on Tony's case comes by looking for information on Jimmy Dockerson. Carla has Sally dig up old records, and shreds some paperwork pertaining to Jimmy. To cover herself of course, since she believes she's killed Jimmy.
Sally's not happy to see that Carla has re-appointed Hayley has manager-on-duty to help her run Underworld. Carla has Sally bring Hayley up to date. Sally ends up leaving Underworld in tears, all dreams of being a PA just dashed.
That's not all of Sally's troubles, as she chews Molly out over the disarray that the books are in for the garage. As Sally has to leave the house to go to Underworld on some un-urgent business, Molly and Kev decide it'd be great to knock boots in Sally's bed! Oh, I can't wait to see the back of this sordid affair. Kev and Molly are almost caught snogging by Sally who rushes in crying from being berated by Carla Gordon. Yikes!
*Groan*, Claire Peacock is back on the scene. She complains to Ashley about Amy's potty-mouth around her boys. Ashley tells Steve, who tells Becky, who tells Claire to shove off essentially. Claire and Becky get into a tiff, that almost gets into a riff if Steve didn't intervene. I can't stand Claire, but if she's going to start sparring with Becky, things could get interesting. Who'd you put money on?
Meanwhile, Becky is still suspicious of where Steve has been spending all his time, and Steve has still be avoiding having Becky find out about his golf lessons. Do you really think she'd be that upset? I don't think Becky's the type of woman to freak out over something like that. Michelle maybe, but not Becky.
Rosie is just so bored with her nothing life, that she needs to stir up some trouble. She heads into the cafe to order a skinny latte from John. Hayley tells her if she's going to start trouble she best leave. Rosie settles for a coffee, and Hayley warns John to stay away from her since she's trouble. When she's leaving, John asks if she's given any thought to her education. Rosie says that she had such a terrible experience with her last teacher, that she'll never enter a schoolroom again! Zing.
Rosie sees Carla and tries to get her job back telling Carla that she's available for work. Carla spits back at her that "available" should be her middle name. Oh, zing! I love seeing Rosie get a good insult.
Finally, Maria and the Connors are preparing to leave for Ireland. Maria leaves Kirk her home and Ozzy to take care of in her absence. They don't leave the street before seeing Carla Gordon across the street and giving her the evils though. Buh-bye Mammy Connor!
- Everyone's faces when the see Carla standing up in the rafters at Underworld. It looked as though they were witnessing a second-coming!
- Mammy Connor off my screen for at least the time being, let's hope longer.
- Ashley and Steve trying to figure out what the "d" word is. Hint: It's short for Richard. Sorry Richard.
- Becky and Claire's little "disagreement." I was wanting it to turn out into an all-out brawl!
- Carla directing her b*tchiness to where it's deserved: Rosie Webster!
- Carla being such a b*tch to Sally! What was that for? Carla's such a miserable witchy woman.
- Molly and Kev's sick little romp in Sally's bed!!! The nerve of them! Yucky.
- Becky's hair? Did she stick her finger in an electrical outlet? It looks like a rat's nest. I know she's usually a bit "out there" with her hair... but still.
- Why is John Stape even trying to be nice to Rosie? He should just treat her like a stranger - end of.
- Rosie going into the cafe to torture John. If she were really traumatised by him she'd never step foot in a place that he worked. Tsk.
For those who enjoy the scenic route, check out the full review scene-by-scene here.

Carla has always been bitchy and let's face it, Sally's always been a suck up. I imagine Carla felt it a tad uncomfortable with Sally's nose so far up her backside. No wonder she took Sally down a peg or two!
Claire might be boring and tedious but she's got the red head's temper and she might be a lot of things but she's not afraid to stand up to anyone, even Becky! Especially when it's from the moral high ground - 27 November 2009 23:22
Agree on all points with Tvor! Sally's suck up is so true to life... she really thinks that just because she has her A levels she's so much better than the rest of the factory girls??? There's always someone in the pack that's always so full of themselves.
And Claire -- she just needs a good storyline -- hard when a fictional couple seem to have their marriage/family all together... but kinda need an adventure -- perhaps something to do with taking Graham under their wing -- much like the Croppers and Becky... - 28 November 2009 00:32
I thought Carla was just mean to rub Sally's nose in it the way she did, I actually felt sorry for Sal!
More pointless Claire, obviously her friendship with Becky is to try and make her more interesting - yawn - the "Charlston" in the butchers was just cringeworthy. Phil the new producer - make her the first casualty PLEASE! - 28 November 2009 09:18

- 28 November 2009 10:12
Carla's bitchiness towards Sally was uncalled for. Yes, Sally can be annoying and does need to be reminded to keep her feet on the ground but Carla was just plain mean. And after all, at least Sally is trying to work her way up in the world, unlike Carla who just got there because of Paul.
But I do love Ma Connor, I really hope the Connor parents can be regular characters next year. - 28 November 2009 15:34

Road Review: 2009 Acura RDX
Posted: August 16, 2011 Filed under: Road Review, Sports and Executive | Tags: Acura, AWD, Compact SUV, Crossover, CUV, Honda, Honda Engine, K23A1, Lease, Luxury, Premium Luxury, Quick, SH-AWD, SUV, turbo, VTEC Leave a comment »Back in 2009, my dad's lease on his Honda Pilot was up, and he needed a new car. After driving the GMC Acadia and the new Pilot, he realized how sick he was of the three-row SUVs, as he no longer needed the extra space, and wanted better gas mileage. He drove the little Honda CR-V, and regretted it. Then, he drove a new RDX, and without a second thought, signed some lease papers. I've lived with it as my dad's daily driver for two years now, and he's never had more respect for a car than this one, so I decided to find out why. Read the rest of this entry »

Purchase of a notebook case.
Simple and easy to deal with. Good delivery times and costs. Would recommend.
No Shipping in two weeks, no answer on email or facebook, nothing.
I may have to start a paypal dispute.
UPDATE: A couple of weeks after writing this review they did get back to me, and the one product I was missing was re-shipped -- and I finally received it! As such, I upgraded my rating from 2* to 3*. Obviously not great, but at least now I don't feel cheated any more.
I have placed two separate orders with Gearzap, for a total of three products. I live in Romania. Every time the parcels couldn't be tracked and were way overdue (three weeks or more). The second order contained two items, and for some reason they made two separate shipments. One of them reached me, the order didn't (it's been almost three months now, so I guess it's lost for good). A Gearzap representative responded to my first e-mail inquiry, asking me to wait some more. After that, I was unable to receive any kind of reply from them; I also tried calling them, but you don't get to speak to a human on the phone.
I don't think they're doing any of this on purpose, they're probably just poorly organised (and I think they might possibly not believe me, seeing how I'm a Romanian and there's a lot of bad press about Romanians over in the UK; or maybe they just don't care, I don't know).
I looked on many sites but found this the best and cheepest by far.You get what they say you will get on a fast turn around. Would recomend them 100%
I ordered a cover for my MacBook. They sent the wrong size. After returning my order to them no replacement was sent. After several emails asking for a refund I am still awaiting a reply and a refund.
If you are wanting accessorises go else where even if you have to pay I little more.
I would never recommend this site to anyone
Some companies are better than other, this was an outstanding experience... Efficient order placement, great follow-up, and outstanding delivery service. They couldn't have done more to get the items delivered.
Love the Kindle cover & light, fast delivery and great products.
My hubby can now read at night in bed without having to turn the main light on!!!
The cover is exactly what I wanted and is perfect for my needs. It has a pleasant soft feel to it and holds the device nice and snug. There were many different types to choose from so I took a little while selecting the right one for me (it's great to have a wide choice). Delivery was very fast and Gearzap is an excellent company to do business with. I have bookmarked their homepage in case I need their services in the future.
I received my goods very quickly and the price was great with free p&p so i was very happy and would use Gearzap again, I bought a laptop bag for my Sony Tablet it fits perfectly and saved me £40 on original Sony item but has the added extra of having another pocket on the front to carry charger that the sony item does not offer.
Ordered Elecom Zeroshock case for my 13.3" Dell Vostro V131.
Absolutely perfect. Now, I have no intention of dropping it, but this case is the best confidence you can have that the notebook would survive a 1m or so drop.
Great price from GearZap, and great service
A great site - easy to use and with really nice looking and effective products. Service couldn't be faulted.
Ordered a cover for my Nexus 7, arrived next morning, received confirmation email of order and dispatch, would definitely use this company again. well done Gearzap!
I ordered an item and paid for special delivery for the next working day. It arrived on time but was completely the wrong item. After calling customer service there is nothing they were willing to do other than point me to their returns policy to get a refund - I now have to wrap it up, send it off and wait for how long???
Brilliant product!!!, quick and easy to use, simply laid out website, good prices, good quality case, fast postage!!! Really good company!!!!
Placed an order for a case and charger on Tuesday with option of special delivery so would get all items next day as all in stock. Items didn't arrive so i gave it another day still no goods so e-mailed them on the Friday morning to chase the order got no reply from them but a despatch e-mail on the Friday night. So looks like items were not sent out either by mistake or were waiting for stock but they couldn't be bothered to reply to my e-mail or contact me about late delivery very poor customer service wont be using again and will not recommend this company.
The GearZap website is clear and easy to navigate as you would expect. Ordering was simple and the product arrived, brand new and exactly as described, very promptly.
To add to this, for the competitive price paid, I am very please with the quality and design of the product purchased. GearZap will definitely be one of the first sites I visit should I need any mobile phone/tablet accessories again in future.

Comments On Dec 11, 2012:Nice lightweight guards that fit like a glove and stay in place. The guards surround the kee to protect the sides too but are not bulky at all. They also offer a good amount of shin protection without going into the boot. I wear AStars Tech 3 boots. These guards are an A+ in my book.
Additional Comments On Dec 11, 2012:I wanted to add that the the technology behind these guards is amazing. I spoke directly with Leatt about them and it was not a sales pitch from them just direct answers to my questions about the 3 dimensional foam, the protection the guards offer, and the CE rating. I was very happy with what I was told and that is why I purchased them and the 3DF elbow guards. Chalk another win up for Leatt!

Oldham Athletic v Everton
The FA Cup with Budweiser
Fifth Round Proper
6pm, Saturday 16 February 2013
Boundary Park, Oldham Athletic FC
Live on ITV1
Winning clubs receive £180,000 from The FA's Prize Fund

Phil Neville says The FA Cup is the 'pinnacle' of any footballer's career, as he looks to help Everton into the quarter final this weekend.
The Toffees skipper won The Cup three times during his spell with Manchester United and reached another Final with Everton in 2009.
And the 36-year-old admits that it was always one of his childhood ambitions to get his hands on The Cup.
Neville told FATV: "It's everything that you dream of.
"When I was growing up, the one thing I wanted to do in terms of honours, was to win The FA Cup, not win the league or the Champions League.
"It's almost been ingrained in me from watching football and The FA Cup was the pinnacle.
"It was the best day of the year when you all sat down in front of the telly on Saturday and cheered on a team.
"It didn't have to even be your team. If your team wasn't there, you'd choose another.
"When I got to my first Final, it felt like the pinnacle at the time."
Everton face a tricky test against Oldham on Saturday, with the League One outfit looking to knock out another Merseyside team after their win over Liverpool in the last round.
With David Moyes' side now in the last 16, Neville knows that it's only three wins until The Final.
And he still can't forget his first FA Cup Final, which came in 1996 with United's 1-0 victory over Liverpool.
He added: "It wasn't just the game, it was the build-up, the drive to the stadium and even things like pinning a flower to your suit.
"It was the things that your heroes had done.
"I've been lucky that I've managed to do it a few times."
Watch the full interview with Neville in the Media Gallery above, when he also speaks about heading to Macclesfield Town with Marouane Fellaini and his surefire method of keeping his Cup Final suit clean.

Bionic Motion i:wing
Filed under: Decor
When I first saw the video above I wasn't sure what to think. Is the i:wing from BIonic Motion a fan? Creator Robert Spillner was quick to disabuse me of that notion. He says it's better than a fan. The i:wing offers ventilation with no draft, the two wings swing slowly back and forth creating small, recurrent waves, setting the area in the room in motion. It is also designed to be soothing and relaxing. It works by remote control and can be set to beat softly or more vigorously and can be used all year round to both cool or warm a room. The experience seems a little akin to being fanned with palm fronds in a gentle and calming rhythm.
Spillner worked as a development engineer for the automotive industry and was a development partner in hydraulic power steering for the F1 teams. The i:wing will sell for 2280 euros and is set to launch this October.

Grab a Button!
Product 284/1128
It's the Saturday before Halloween and twenty-two year old Louisiana native, Anders Anderson is thrilled to be in New York City at a costume party in a gay night club. Having gone into debt to hobnob with the A-List crowd, hoping to be 'discovered', Anders dons his fake fangs and black v-neck Versace top and mingles with the elite.
What he doesn't expect is to come face to face with a real vampire, Daniel Wolf. After a crazy night at the club which both terrifies Anders and thrills him, Anders reconsiders his options and makes a very wise decision. Maybe his dad was right and New York was slightly overwhelming for a small town boy.

An 18,000 BTU a/c was installed in the living area and a 12,000 BTU a/c was installed in the bedroom during September '09. No other unit has this much cooling power which can be essential for reasons of comfort and privacy. The ceiling fans add to the tropical charm which is Maui!

The very private ceramic tiled 10' x 13' lanai patio (only available with ground floor units) features a glass top table with 4 chairs and a lush tropical garden view. The solid maple kitchen and bath cabinetry is custom made by Decora. The new, tiled bathroom has the same Hansgrohe wallbar shower found in many 5-star hotels; the tub is slip resistant and has a grab rail for your safety.
• Newly carpeted throughout, this condo also has a ceramic tiled kitchen, bath and lanai. The kitchen is complete with a full size refrigerator and oven, microwave, dishwasher ~ plus all the utensils, cookery and dishes you'll ever want. The brand new (Sept '10) stacked washer/dryer is closeted neatly away. There's also a coffee maker - even a hair dryer.

Carve It To The Heart
A number of years ago at the tender age of 6, my mom handed me a loud, weezy, sparkly thing…it was an accordion. A few tear-stained years later I heard my mom & dad's friend, "Rhodes Bent" (I'm not kidding) play a Hank Williams tune on the guitar - I was hooked. Thanks mom & dad! ...

I have been working at Taco Bell full-time for less than a year
Pros – Fast paced environment but the works not too difficult. Customers that frequent Taco Bell are usually amazing to deal with.
Cons – Their refund or replace policy gets abused and I really hate replacing orders that I know never existed.
Advice to Senior Management – If you keep in mind that we're here to coach rather than command you'll get your crew to do almost anything you ask of them.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
I worked at Taco Bell full-time for more than 3 years

The War Z returns to Steam
Much criticised survival MMO The War Z is once more available on Steam. Early reports suggest the product is somewhat more polished than at its initial launch, and its marketing materials have been altered to remove the troubling claims which resulted in its disappearance from Steam in December.

Reviews of Jelly Belly Mini Bean Machine
Here's a great gift for gadget lovers. The Mini Bean Machine can be set to be used with or without coins. Put one in your den or office, and it'll pay for itself in no time! The Mini Bean Machine stands 9 inches tall and includes a 3.25 oz bag of Jelly Belly jelly beans. Machine holds... read more about Jelly Belly Mini Bean Machine
Comments: Cute novelty. Dispenses jelly beans with coin box or can remove coin box and not have to use coins. Belly Flops can get hung up due to irregular shapes and sizes. Not a gift and I was not compensated to write this review. Probably would give as a gift. |
Comments: Sent this to my 84 year old mother-in-law. She loves the despenser for herself and the children in the neighorhood. |
Comments: I have one of my own and my adult son who loves jelly beans wanted one. I gave him one and he loves it. I ordered jelly beans as well so we will have enough to last for a while. |
Comments: The jelly bean dispenser is a treat that my grandchildren look forward to when visiting. It gives them a treat for just being a kid. And it brings the kid in all of us out. Everyone forms a line for the jelly beans, young and old, big and small alike. Thank you for this product. |
Comments: We love the little dispenser. The Jelly Belly dispenser is timeless and anytime we have company over, we enjoy watching their faces as they twist to get jelly beans! |
Comments: Great nostalgic piece, reminds me of one i had as a child. Great quality, bowl is made of glass. Bought 3 for presents and ended up keeping one. Only thing is u need to buy more jelly beans to fill it up, the bag it comes with is only 3.25 oz, but it holds 1.5 lb. |
Comments: beans are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!machine,not so much.I PAID [$], FOUND SAME MACHINE W/O YOUR LOGO FOR [$] AT [...]. PLASTIC COVER ON BEAN DISPENSER BROKE O FIRST USE...........PJ |
Comments: I ENJOY JELLYBELLIES TO THE MOST, I LOVE THEM AS SNACKS, AN OF ALL THINGS I USE THEM AS A TRAINING TREAT FOR MY YEAROLD AUSTRAILIAN SHEPARD SHE ENJOYS THEM TOO. I HAVENT FOUND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS PRODUCT BESIDES THEY R GONE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT.. |
Comments: A great design at a reasonable price. Everyone wants Jelly Bellys from my machine! |
Comments: i bought it as a gift. i was very pleased as well as my hubby....fit well on his desk and it was a sweet reminder of me. |
Comments: This was purchased for our niece and nephew, ages 7 and 9. They loved it. It was also a great price for a small gift. |
Comments: I loved the Jelly Belly dispenser. It arrived on time and everything was just great. The only con that I found was that it came with too few jelly beans in the package. |
Comments: Use When Hungry for some Jelly Belly's. On my cabinet. Grab some and sit down and eat it. Then I have to get up for some more. There full of mouth watering "flavorness". When I figured out I had to insert money into it to get some Jelly Beans, I sat there for a whole hour trying to pry the coin slot out, to not have to insert money. But when I finally got it everything was O.K. The rest of the product worked just fine. |
Comments: I got this gift for one of by bosses for Christmas - what a great idea. He loved it! He is a big Jelly Belly fan! It fits perfectly on his side table and is a hit in his office! |
Comments: nice gift for a person who likes jelly beans, a good sanitary method, as opposed to an open bowl |

Good grief--what was with Blogger the last couple days? I've been trying to upload these pictures since early Sunday morning and kept getting server error messages. I think it was their server and not mine, judging from the comments on the Blogger User Forums...
Anyway, things seem to be working once again.
Well now, it's a good thing I have dependable kitchen help. That really frees up a lot of extra time for me for sewing and knitting.
Saturday was sunny and no snow was in the forecast, so I drove over to Sun Prairie, WI to JJ Stitches, a quilt shop specializing in vintage-look fabrics. I knew I'd find just the right antique-y prints that would mimic the little shirting prints in the block backgrounds. And I wasn't disappointed. I also got a red plaid for a sawtooth border. And came home very happy!
Then to the sewing room.
There were two good sets for these blocks. This one was my first plan:
This one was suggested by Polyquats on Flickr:
Both pretty interesting.! I finally went with the top set. The four blocks make a suggestion of roundness and I kind of liked that.
I decided to sew the blocks together in groups of four and then sash the groups with some vintage-y fabric I had on hand.
Then began the usual round of second-guessing. I decided that the sashing was too heavy-handed. I ripped it all apart and just sewed the blocks together. I want to add more size to this piece, but decided the best way was to leave the blocks alone and add size with borders.
Outside the blocks, I added a narrow inner border with a fabric similar to the backgrounds in the blocks, just to give the blocks a bit of breathing space before adding a pieced border.
(Do you think the original maker of these blocks would have done that? Probably not.) Next will be a sawtooth border in the red plaid. Then a wide border in an antique-looking light will bring the top to about 60 or so inches square.
I'm so psyched about this simple little quilt!

Girls Class B teams determined their fates at Liverpool High School on Tuesday night, the winners getting to advance to the Carrier Dome for the final on Thursday.

Senior Allie Taylor led both squads with 23 points, Tayler Sorell chipping in 19. In the loss Emily Call led the Lakers with 18.
In the B-1 final, Westhill faced off with South Jefferson, coming into the game with an undefeated record. But it was South Jefferson ending Westhill's terrific season with a 52-41 win, advancing to face Hannibal in the Class B overall championship in the Carrier Dome.
In Chittenango, undefeated Weedsport battled Fabius-Pompey for the Class C-2 Girls Championship. It was the surprise of the night, as Fabius took a 6 point halftime lead and never gave it up, beating the top-seed Weedsport 53-46. Kirsten Dodge scored 24 in the victory, while Weedsport Brittany and Gabby LaForce combined for 29 in the loss. F-P advances to Class C Championship on Friday at 5pm.

SKETCHBOOK BY EDWARD SOREL about Daniel Patrick Moynihan's meeting at age 14, with Woody Guthrie... Moynihan, who is retiring from the United States Senate after twenty-four years in office, spent his afternoons during the winter of 1942 shining shoes in front of the Wurlitzer Building,...He would set up his kit after school... the goal was to bring home a dollar... Tells about seeing Guthrie playing in Bryant Park in February... Guthrie's ease—how natural he seemed sitting there, how effortlessly the words tumbled forth—was the quality that Daniel Patrick Moynihan remembered fifty-eight years later. "God, it was fun!" the Senator recalled.

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) (Federal Agency Profiles)
ESTABLISHED: March 15, 1989
Contact Information:
ADDRESS: 810 Vermont Ave. NW Washington, DC 20420
URL: http://www.va.gov
SECRETARY OF VETERANS AFFAIRS: Togo D. West, Jr.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) was established by an act of Congress in 1989 to replace the Veterans Administration, which was founded in 1930. The continuing mission of the VA is to assist and provide for veterans and the families of veterans. The programs of the VA are designed to benefit veterans and their families by providing them with disability benefits, pensions, and health care. By administering the National Cemetery System (NCS), the VA also maintains responsibility for and recognition of deceased veterans. The VA's motto, a quote from Abraham Lincoln, states that the VA exists to "care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and his orphan."
The VA is a federal department that is part of the executive branch and has cabinet rank. Its head official, the secretary of veterans affairs, is appointed by the president and confirmed...

Veterans Affairs Department (West's Encyclopedia of American Law)
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) operates programs to benefit veterans and members of their families. Benefits include compensation payments for disabilities or death related to military service, pensions, education, and rehabilitation. The VA also guarantees home loans, provides burial services for veterans, and operates a medical care program that includes nursing homes, clinics, and medical centers. Located in Washington, D.C., the VA in 2003 had 224,724 employees, a workforce second in size only to the DEFENSE DEPARTMENT. The department's projected budget for FY 2003 was 459.6 billion.
The Department of Veterans Affairs was established in 1989 as an executive department by the Department of Veterans Affairs Act (38 U.S.C.A. § 201 note). Its establishment came after more than 24 years of effort by members of Congress to elevate the department's predecessor, the Veterans Administration, to cabinet status. Proponents argued that promotion to cabinet level would increase the political accountability of the VA and improve the quality of its services. The Veterans Administration was established as an independent agency by
presidential EXECUTIVE ORDER No. 5398 of July 21, 1930, in accordance with the act of July 3, 1930 (46 Stat. 1016). This act authorized the president to consolidate and coordinate...

This book has been sitting on my shelf for almost a year and I finally got around to reading it. Let me start out by saying that I typically find unit/regimental histories to be very dry and boring as they are usually filled with tedious details about camp life and tactical maneuvers during battles. So I definitely went in with low expectations. But this turned out to be a gem of a book. It is a fast flowing and well written narrative that never gets bogged down with useless fact fillers. This book makes the reader feel as if they actually get to know these men. However, the author doesn't spare us the details of what civil war artillery did to the human body. One thing that I found intriguing was the variety of people within the battery. It not only had men from across the south but men who had been born in northern states like New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, and Illinois. Plus, there was an international flavor with men from England, Ireland, France, and Germany. I think this goes to show that the Confederate army wasn't a monolithic collection of white southern Anglo-Saxon protestants. These artillerymen fought from Shiloh to the siege of Mobile. The chapters on the battles of Jackson, Chickamauga, and Missionary Ridge were particularly well done. Their story would make an excellent Civil War version of Band of Brothers. This definitely ranks among my favorite books on the war. http://www.amazon.com/Pride-Confederate-Artillery-Washington-Tennessee/dp/0807121878/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1236212376&sr=8-2 Last edited on Thu Mar 5th, 2009 12:37 am by The Iron Duke ____________________ "Cleburne is here!" meant that all was well. -Daniel Harvey Hill |

Thanks for that book. Did he mention any Black Confederate Soldiers as cannoneers? |

Old Blue, NC Hughes does talk about the Black Horse battery down near Mobile. I concur with the Iron Duke. A great read! Hughes even includes a detailed biography of each member in an appendix/roster that allows the reader to find out what happened to these gentlemen post-war. Perhaps the finest Southern unit history that I've ever read. |

For those few unaware, the Washington Artillery was five batteries made up from the elite of New Orleans society. One might think that they were effete poseurs, but they weren't. Four went east and one stayed in the west. If you were up against one of these batteries, you had a problem. These guys were better than good. They were much more than fancy guys parading in smart uniforms. They worked their guns with a zeal that could overmatch most opposing batteries. Thanks for the recommendation. A must read. Ole |

Justin Bieber fielded an unusual request from a passenger on an international flight -- and it went something like this: shut your expletive-filled pie hole! Please.
It all happened during the Biebs' return from a Down Under promotional tour. Sources on the 12-hour Air New Zealand flight last weekend ... tell us JB was surrounded by his entourage in first class when things started getting out of hand.
We're told 18-year-old Justin and his posse were blurting out cuss words -- including some 4-letter selections -- and getting so loud ... a female passenger finally stepped to Bieber.
We're told the woman ... a mother of 2 ... walked over and asked Justin to "stop yelling curse words and using that kind of language on a plane. It's not appropriate."
A source close to Justin tells us he was completely embarrassed, quickly apologized to the woman -- and then busted out an a cappella version of "Boyfriend."
The last part didn't happen ... but would've been awesome.
Do people still listen to that douchebag ? isnt he getting a bit old for teen beat now? Yuck scrawny manboy eww.
Boys will be boys. Why isn't this young Christian gent leasing his own G whatever number at this point in time?
Correction: There is no First Class product on Air New Zealand. The airline offers economy, economy plus, and business -- 3 classes of service. TMZ, if you fail to get the facts correct in a headline, where else are you falling short?
Wait -- which part didn't happen? The entire last paragraph, or the part about him breaking into song? When did TMZ become this incompetently written?
Yaaay to that woman. Justin Bieber is such a tool. He caused similar trouble on his previous visit downunder.

Jillette Johnson Biography & News
About Jillette Johnson
Young artist Jillette Johnson drawing plenty of praise, big comparisons (Created 10/18/13)
Up-and-coming singer, songwriter and pianist Jillette Johnson has been compared to some of the bigger names in the music industry. Upon first impressions, she's been put in the same category as Fiona Apple and Adele – some lofty company bringing big expectations.
Truth be told, Johnson seems more than ready to handle the pressure of being a big time star. She's been taking music lessons and writing songs since she was a child, and has been performing live since the age of 12. And did we mention she's chasing her dream in the metropolis that is New York City, where today's entertainers can appear to be a dime a dozen?
What makes Johnson stand out is more than her piano-driven tunes. In early 2012, she inked a deal with Wind-Up records, where execs were captivated by a track called "Cameron," which explored the struggles of a transgendered person. The song appeared on Johnson's five-song EP "Whiskey & Frosting," a prelude to her debut album "Water in a Whale." The project speaks of her thoughts and experiences about living in the city and being young in today's society.
Soaring vocals and haunting piano lines are a part of Johnson's allure, but she's appealing to fans who see the side of an artist focusing on being authentic to one's self. She also supports the anti-bullying campaign, Hey U.G.L.Y. (Hey, unique, gifted, lovable you) via the Pledge Music site and aims to bring the message and her songs to life for as many people as possible.
