In January 2012, a potentially significant shift occurred for corporate decision-makers: Companies seeking financing from the World Bank's International Finance Corporation, as well as from 76 global banks that signed on to the Equator Principles, became subject to due diligence processes that examine corporate impacts and dependencies on ecosystem services. This occurred even as more than 16 national and regional governments continued to focus on ways to integrate ecosystem services into public policy. With small-scale exploratory work underway for several years, corporate applications covered the spectrum -- from integration of ecosystem services into accounting to consideration of the issues as an element in risk-management and impact-assessment protocols.
Though few corporate decision-makers have heard of ecosystem services, the decades-old concept is now drawing significant attention to the natural infrastructure from which all natural resource-based goods and services flow and upon which all business and society relies.
But what's next in terms of new corporate performance requirements related to ecosystem services? And what are the implications for companies?
To explore that question, BSR's Ecosystem Services Working Group convened a small roundtable with working group members and thought leaders from the public, NGO and academic arenas. After two days of brainstorming and discussion, along with a field trip to the Florida Everglades headwaters, the group brainstormed a set of scenarios that were deemed feasible. Inspired by our field trip and previous transformative scenario-planning exercises, each scenario was given a name meant to evoke a sense of the dynamics that could play out. This article summarizes a few of the scenarios, which will be presented along with other possible futures in a longer report that BSR will issue in 2013.

For Better or For Worse#3 HIP-HIP-HORAY!!!!!
Mom has had two surgerys, one portocath surgery, four chemo treatments, two radio active scans: one heart scan, one bone scan, MRIs, a mamagram, ultra sounds and a biopsy. Dad has dealt with the insurance company, he has taken mom to all of her appiontments, scheduled playdates etc. for Bayla and me and done a special project for his work as well as going to Calgary. In my opinion, my parents are as courageous as they come.
So three cheers for Mom and Dad!!!

PHOENIX — The Suns kept their promise and selected N.C. State Wolfpack swingman T.J. Warren with the 14th selection in the 2014 NBA draft.
Warren played two seasons at N.C. State, averaging 24.9 points last season on 52% shooting. He was the ACC Player of the Year and named second team AP All-American during his sophomore campaign. Suns general manager Ryan McDonough talked about Warren after his workout in Phoenix earlier in June.
"It'd be hard not to be impressed," McDonough said. "Really carried his team at times, you know they didn't have a whole lot of scoring help, so he had to carry a big load for them. It was impressive not only that he scored but he did efficiently as well. He's kind of a quiet kid, doesn't say a whole lot, but once the games starts he kind of got a knack for putting the ball in the basket."
The small forward had some prolific scoring games last season at N.C. State, including back-to-back 40-plus games against Pitt and Boston College. He single-handedly led the Wolfpack to a tournament appearance, where they beat Xavier in the first round before falling to Saint Louis in round two.
Warren can score the basketball in many ways and knows how to create his own shot. He has an excellant midrange game and can score at ease around the basket.
TJ Warren to Phoenix with No. 14 pick in #NBADraft2014 He's a mid-range assassin. http://t.co/SUk04OcTxd pic.twitter.com/gPcBV2XSYx
— Shot Analytics (@ShotAnalytics) June 27, 2014
Suns coach Jeff Hornacek is impressed with Warren's ways of scoring the basketball and talked about him earlier in June.
"He's got that unique skill of scoring," Hornacek said." Watching tape, watching some of his stuff, he kind of – I don't know (is) methodical looking. Because of that he knows the great positioning.
"When he makes a move and sees an opening, then he explodes. He had a couple finishes today when he got hacked pretty good and was still strong enough to finish it off. The question for him isn't the scoring part, it's the defense. I thought he did a great job defensively, getting his hand on the ball; he was better than I anticipated watching tape."
Warren will fit in nicely on the Suns roster next season as a scoring forward coming off the bench. P.J. Tucker will still start as the small forward assuming he is re-signed in free agency, which will give Warren time to develop off the bench without the pressures of starting right away.

Firstly, these 12 brain-dead morons with the TOTAL combined IQ equivalent to room temperature WERE IN A RUSH TO GET THE HECK OUT OF THERE!! ONE JUROR HAD A CRUISE SCHEDULED FOR THURSDAY, JULY 7TH!! After reaching this obscene and "non-sequitorial" verdict in less than 11 hours of deliberations for a 6-week trial, this jury showed its STUPIDITY AND LACK OF COMMON SENSE by NOT bothering to send out a note asking the judge or the lawyers about the following questions: Legally, in order to achieve a conviction on murder or manslaughter: 1. MUST the State [aka "the prosecution" or the "government"] prove a cause of death? 2. MUST the State prove a manner of death? 3. MUST the state prove a time of death? 4. MjUST the State prove a place where death took place? THE ANSWER IS NO!!! Murder convictions have been won by the State EVEN WHEN THERE ISN'T EVEN A BODY!!! This jury whined that all they had questions and there wasn't enough evidence....well, THEY COULD'VE ASKED THE JUDGE AND LAWYERS TO ANSWER THESE SIMPLE QUESTIONS FOR THEM....and about not being enough evidence, well, if you'd spent more time deliberating and had YOU USED YOU GOD-GIVEN COMMON SENSE, maybe you could have taken the time to look at ALL THE EVIDENCE AND YOU'D DISCOVERED THE TRUTH THAT THE DEFENDANT MURDERED HER DAUGHTER!!!! Indeed, a village somewhere is missing twelve idiots, folks!!!
- Petitioned The FBI and the US Attorney's Office at the Middle District of Florida
This petition was delivered to:
Let's Get Federal Justice For Caylee Marie Anthony By Having Casey Anthony Prosecuted In Federal Court
Petition by
Stony Brook, NY
Multiply Your Impact
Turn your signature into dozens more by sharing this petition and recruiting people you know to sign.
While Casey Anthony was acquitted of first-degree murder, aggravated child abuse, and aggravated manslaughter of a child, by the State of Florida, it is our belief that Casey Anthony should be found guilty of a variety of other Federal crimes, in a US Federal Court, under the Dual Sovereignty Doctrine. Please sign this petition if you would like the FBI to provide the US Attorney's Office with the evidence surrounding the Casey Anthony case. This petition will be forwarded to the US Attorney's Office at the Middle District of Florida, upon receiving an adequate number of electronic signatures of this petition. We will also be providing the US Attorney's Office at the Middle District of Florida with a completed copy of their Citizen Complaint Intake Form, so that they may forward this petition, along with their Citizen Complaint Intake Form to the FBI. This will, hopefully, play a role in having the FBI forward their evidence, surrounding the Casey Anthony case, to the US Attorney's Office at the Middle District of Florida. Please sign this petition today to help get justice for Caylee Marie Anthony in US Federal court. Also, please share this with everyone you know!
Just one example, where it appears that Casey Anthony is committing a Federal crime, can be viewed in the following video, where she lies to FBI agent, Nick Savage. Beginning at 5 minutes and 25 seconds into this video, Casey Anthony begins to speak about how her goal is to find Caylee and how she "knows" her daughter is still alive: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WAKNI4b6x8 . According to Casey Anthony's own defense, she already knew that her daughter was deceased by this point, when she makes this statement to Federal Agent Nick Savage.
The above video does not show any of the lies that she was already convicted for, on the state level.
Please Share this petition on Facebook, Twitter, and with your email contacts. Also, if you have an extra couple of minutes, you can also go to Facebook and conduct a search for Facebook pages that are related to this topic. On most of those pages, you can "Like" the page and then you'll be able to post a link to this petition there. Thank you to everyone who helps share this petition!

to whom it may concern:
On July 5, 2011, at 1:15 pm Central Standard Time, Casey Anthony was found not guilty of first degree murder in the death of her daughter Caylee Anthony. The only charges she now faces are four counts of falsifying police reports, each of which only carries a 1 year prison term. As of today it has been ruled that she will be released on Wednesday, July 13th.
Within our Judicial system, the State of Florida is no longer able to try Casey Anthony for the murder of Caylee Anthony as this will be considered Double Jeopardy, but within the Separate Sovereigns rule The U.S. Federal Government is. First Degree murder is a federal offense and, We beseech you, do not let this crime go unpunished. We the people of the United States of American seek justice for the victim in this case Caylee Marie Anthony.
Since the ruling of this case it has been confirmed that as many as 5 jurors have been offered everything from interviews to book deals, with juror number 6 being offered a reported 5 figures to do a media interview. Juror number 3 has gone on record to state that the decision given has made her sick to her stomach and she did not feel Casey Anthony was truly not guilty. It has also been confirmed that the jury for the 11 hours they were in the deliberation room did not deliberate at all but were said to be playing cards, leaving their notes on their chairs in the courtroom. Throughout the entirety of this case right down to the verdict, it has bared a shocking resemblance to the trial of O.J. Simpson. There was a reason that after the O.J. Simpson trial was over the law was enacted to stop jurors from being able to sell their story for 90 days, and I would hate to think that this beautiful child was not given the justice she deserved for the opportunity of wealth.
This case has touched hearts all over the world and on July 5th when it was announced a verdict had been reached everyone watched and waited. It would be a understatement to say that the verdict was anything but shocking. With the evidence that the State of Florida provided it's hard to believe anyone with a sound state of mind would have ruled this case not guilty on every count. This was not justice for Caylee Anthony and many people the world over have lost faith in our Judicial System. I still want to believe that we as a nation have the best Judicial System in the world but it only works when everyone involved is honest in the search for justice.
The case of Caylee Anthony was tragic, and I do not want this to be misconstrued as a "witch hunt", but justice was not given. The jury was not honest in their search for justice. I beseech you, bring this case before the Federal Court, give Caylee another chance at the justice she deserves.
Sincerely, WE THE PEOPLE WHO SEEK JUSTICE FOR CAYLEE MARIE ANTHONYREPORT THIS COMMENT:

I do not believe the jury understood their instructions. When one of the jurors recently said, "We knew she wasn't innocent but couldn't
connect the dots to find her guilty." I was appalled. The jurors only deliberated for approximately eight hours not counting the three hours it should have taken them to read their directions and select a foreman. I cannot believe that so many people have given their hearts and souls to find justice for Caylee and they have been completely discarded just like Caylee's body. How can two thirds of our country be so wrong, it doesn't make any sense.REPORT THIS COMMENT:

I just checked Roseanne Barr's Website (after I cut and pasted the wording of this petition onto her blog this morning) and she posted a response and the link to this petition!! Yipee! (if I may be immature for a moment ;).
Here's what Roseanne said:
Read and Sign: Casey Anthony tried in Federal Court this time!
She murdered a baby by giving her a shot of chloroform and duct taping her airways. There is all the proof in the world that she did it needed for a conviction. Jose Baez used jury nullification to get her acquitted...confusing jurors as to what "reasonable doubt" means--the same Johnny Cochran tactic that all lawyers learn in sleazy law practice 101. Jose Baez was a public defender who screwed over the public, and turned a mentally ill child murderer loose on the world for profit. Now is the time for a big change in this country--starting with child murderers and their immoral defenders. Laws protect the innocent--and should not be at the expense of children's lives and safety.

A Proper Introduction
This is my first Tumblr blog post.
I thought you were only supposed to reblog pics but my mini-manager Jo told me otherwise lol. I was gonna reblog ALL the cool shit and put up my pics and music but… I guess I'll blog a little as well.
I am a 24 year old singer/songwriter born in Washington, DC but raised in the glorious lands of GA, LA and AL. I am an army brat with family all across the south and the east coast/Midwest so I traveled A LOT during my childhood and don't plan on stopping.
(WORLD Domination domination domination domination)
I ended up in DC by the grace of God for allowing me to attend and graduate from the illustrious Howard University (H-U! *gets hype* YOU KNOW! )
(*calms down*)
I sing to myself to calm myself down. I sing to expel nervous energy. I sing when I'm happy. I sing when I'm sad. Sometimes I don't even realize that I am, in fact, singing. As long as the Lord allows me to have this voice I will sing.
(be it voluntary or involuntary lol)
Right now, I am preparing (physically and mentally) for my new (currently untitled) EP so that I may build a buzz around what I want to do career wise. I can't work in a job that makes me miserable while other people are out here pursuing their dreams and never pursue mine. That's unfair to me and only me. So this is me, Tomara K, stepping out on faith and focusing my mind on music so that I may achieve what is in my heart…and not worrying about what anyone else can or will say about me.
This is my life.
I'm going to live it.

The FTC is mailing hundreds of refund checks to consumers duped by a debt relief services company that ran an extensive credit card interest rate reduction scam.
The company, one of many shut down by the FTC, used illegal robocalls to pitch reduced credit card interest rates, and promised thousands of dollars in savings and a faster route out of debt, to boot. The consumer had to pay a fee in advance.
The irony of this type of debt relief scam? Consumers could have called the customer service number on the back of their credit card, and with a little patience and persistence, had their interest rates lowered for free.
Protect yourself:
If you've been a victim of a credit card interest rate reduction scam, file a complaint with the FTC. To register your phone number or report a robocall violation visit the Do Not Call Registry.

Indiana Valedictorian and Star Athlete Fights Back Against Head Injury, Graduates with Class
I want to follow up yesterday's sad high school graduation story with a much happier one. A Michigan City, Indiana girl who suffered a terrible head injury in April is out of a coma, back on her feet and enjoying her new found freedom as a high school graduate.
Eighteen-year-old Courtney Brinckman always stood out from the crowd in Michigan City. A 4.0 student and the class valedictorian, she was a four year track star and champion at pole vaulting.
"If there were ever the golden student, Courtney's the one," said Linda Meyer, a guidance counselor at Michigan City High School.
Courtney had been a special all her life, and accorded to friends and family, excelled at everything she tried. She was a gifted gymnast before switching to track and field in high school, and her name is one of many highlighted among Michigan City High School's track record breakers.
In fact, the day of her tragic accident, Courtney had just finished breaking her own (and the school's) pole vaulting record when, taking a practice attempt, she slipped, fell backwards, and hit her head. Some reports say that she landed directly on her head, but whatever the case may be, Courtney was rushed to the hospital.
At the hospital, Courtney was kept sedated and in a coma-like state in order to keep her brain from receiving too much stimulation. Her family and school friends worried that she would not get to graduate with her class, and perhaps not even take the full ride scholarship she had received to Indiana University in Bloomington.
"It's May, and she was so close to reaping all the benefits of her hard work that it was just really devastating for all of us," said Meyer.
Perhaps it was to be expected, but Courtney excelled at healing just like this smart and persistent teen excelled at everything else. Last Sunday, wearing a helmet to protect her still healing head injury, Courtney Brinckman graduated with her high school class.
Courtney's brain had swelled after the accident, and doctors performed a procedure called a decompressive craniectomy that took off a section of her skull to counteract the swelling. At the graduation ceremony, part of Courtney's brain was only protected by skin, hence the helmet. She also can't smell or taste anything yet, but in an article on the WNDU television station's website, Brinckman demonstrated some of the optimism that undeniably helped her through her ordeal:
"I'm thinking I've only been awake for three weeks now and I've made this much progress, I'm thinking in a couple of months I'll be just fine, back to my normal self."
Courtney will undergo another surgery on June 24th in order to reattach part of her skull, and after that, the teen plans to take her University of Indiana scholarship and study pre-med, a fitting major, for someone who has benefitted so much from the miracles of medicine.

David Newton – ESPN.com :
Greg Hardy's "Kraken" persona will have to be toned down a tad in '14, as the NFL has decided that face paint is outlawed. I will miss seeing the passion in Hardy's face and wonder why this is no longer allowed.
Bryan Strickland – Panthers.com :
Cam Newton hopes to go on Sunday against Tampa and is really chomping at the bit to get back on the field. He knows it's a marathon season and being productive for all 16 games is the most important.
It's possible that the new Gatorade slushy machine in the locker room is one of the biggest stories this preseason –

Derek Leazer – Cat Scratch Reader :
Game number one predictions for this Sunday. Very reasonable thoughts, not the outcome that we are hoping for.
2 Days Cat Crave Nation! 48 hours until go-time! It's so close we can almost touch it. Brenton Bersin may have switched numbers, but his #2 jersey gets the job done. 2 MORE DAYS!!

NTSB Identification:
14 CFR Part 91: General Aviation
Accident occurred Thursday, October 18, 2012 in Yucca, AZ
Aircraft: CESSNA 182P, registration: N20939
Injuries: 1 Fatal.
This is preliminary information, subject to change, and may contain errors. Any errors in this report will be corrected when the final report has been completed. NTSB investigators either traveled in support of this investigation or conducted a significant amount of investigative work without any travel, and used data obtained from various sources to prepare this aircraft accident report.
On October 18, 2012, at 1212 mountain standard time, a Cessna 182P, N20939, collided with terrain near Yucca, Arizona. The pilot/owner was operating the airplane under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 91. The certificated private pilot sustained fatal injuries; the airplane sustained substantial damage from impact forces and a post-crash fire. The cross-country personal flight departed Lake Havasu, Arizona, about 1200, with a planned destination of Eagle Airfield, Fort Mohave, Arizona. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed, and no flight plan had been filed.
This was the first flight following an annual inspection. The pilot was returning to his home airport. A witness talked with the pilot about the work just completed, and accompanied the pilot to the airplane. He observed the pilot check the level of the fuel tanks prior to departure, and said the pilot indicated that there were 30 gallons in the left fuel tank and 26 gallons in the right fuel tank. They discussed the beautiful weather, and the differences between this airplane and the pilot's previous airplane. The pilot then boarded the airplane and taxied for takeoff.
A witness driving on nearby Interstate 40 observed the airplane fly into the mountain, and burst into flames.
Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board, Cessna, and CMI examined the wreckage at the accident scene.
The crash site was high on a peak; the terrain slope was about 30 degrees.
The debris path was along a magnetic bearing of 020 degrees.
The First Identified Point of Contact (FIPC) was three parallel ground scars. The outer scars were 9 feet 6 inches apart. A piece of propeller blade tip was several feet in front of the FIPC along with a piece of main wheel pant.
The global positioning satellite (GPS) coordinates for the FIPC were 34° 48.006' north 114° 09.731' west.
The GPS coordinates of the main wreckage were 34° 48.016' north 114° 09.719' west, and the GPS elevation was 1,845 feet.
The propeller was separated from the engine aft of the propeller flange, and was the last piece of wreckage identified. Its GPS coordinates were 34° 48.032' north 114° 9.712' west.
The main wreckage consisted of the engine, fuselage, wings, and tail. The wing struts separated and were in the main debris field. This main wreckage burned and was in the middle of a scorched area of the debris field. Plexiglass shards and debris outside of the scorched area were not sooty or melted.
Control continuity was established. The only disconnect was the flap cable, which was splayed at the right wing root. The Cessna representative noted that the flap actuator was not extended, which indicated that the flaps were up.
The fuel selector valve was not located.
The elevator trim tab actuator separated.
The engine came to rest inverted. The oil pan was crushed upward, and had holes in it. The carburetor separated.
All corners of the airframe and engine were accounted for.

10/26/2014I already rated this app. Why do I still get aggressive notifications?
10/26/2014The best client app for pocket.
10/18/2014Very Good best out there
10/16/2014Great app! Very responsive and helpful developers. Lots of customizations. It's well worth the price.
10/13/2014Great reader! Beautiful. Use it constantly.
10/5/2014Really the best out there. Pictures and descriptions are easy to navigate. While all app features are free, please support the developers so this app can continue to get updates.
10/3/2014Best pocket client, I love it. I don't own a credit card. So having a client with all the features supported out of the box is what makes this app great. The only thing I don't like is that universal sharing has to be through an auxiliary app. Please roll them into a single app.
9/30/2014I have paid the very small price they ask for an app that significantly contributes to my life, much less my productivity. This app is for anyone who reads.PERIOD. Deserves 7 or 8 stars - especially because you can set tags right on the phone, not just add articles. This is huge
9/26/2014It would be nice to have a delete option when I long press a bookmark.

Matzo Ball
The Matzo Ball is an annual Christmas Eve nightlife event and party held in a number of major cities in the United States and Canada targeted primarily at young Jewish singles and organized by the Society of Young Jewish Professionals.[1][2]
The name of the event is frequently styled as MatzoBall,[3][4] Matzah Ball[3][5] or MatzahBall.[6][7]
There are a number of competing social events in Jewish communities throughout the country held that same night. In addition, Matzo Ball and similar spellings are also used as the names for a variety of other, unrelated Jewish community events in particular regions.

Historically, Jews in Europe would hide in their homes and villages during the Christmas holiday, for fear of violence from locals.[8] In the United States, Christmas and Christmas Eve typically serve as times of family gathering and prayer for Christians and many others.[9]
The atmosphere of religious liberalism and tolerance in the United States has offered American Jews the opportunity to enjoy the holiday period.[8][10] At the same time, many American Jews do not engage in the same family-gathering activities on the Christmas holiday that Christians in the United States do.[10][11][12]
Thus, with Christmas Day a work holiday throughout the United States, there is a space of unfilled free time during which much of American commerce and society is not functioning.[1][10] The night of December 24 has become an opportunity to transform this otherwise brief period of alienation or loneliness[1] into one made to gather, socialize, network, drink, flirt, and romance.[10][13] The event has turned Christmas Eve into a matchmaking or dating event for young Jews[1][14][15] and "the biggest singles night of the year."[16]
The first Matzo Ball event was held in Boston in 1987 and organized by local social figure Andy Rudnick.[1] The event has permeated American Jewish consciousness, even winding up in fiction.[17]
Matzo Ball events are generally held at popular nightclubs in the cities in which the event is located.[14] The event is typically scheduled to begin at 8 or 9 p.m. and run through the last call time for the state/locality, with peak attendance and crowds at approximately midnight.[18] It has expanded to the following cities:[2][19]
- New York
- Chicago
- Washington, DC[20][21]
- Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Delray Beach (a change from the pre-2009 Palm Beach County locations, which have been either Boca Raton or West Palm Beach[22])
- Denver (a previous location for the Matzo Ball through the mid-2000s,[23] before its absence in the late 2000s and early 2010s)
- Philadelphia (a previous location for the Matzo Ball before its absence in the late 2000s and early 2010s)[24][25]
- northern New Jersey - Roselle (as of 2013)[26]
- Boston, the original site of the event
In past years, the Matzo Ball also held events in the following cities where it no longer does:
- Atlanta
- Las Vegas
- Montreal
- Toronto (planned for 2009,[2] but apparently withdrawn;[19][27] not to be confused with the independent Toronto Matzoball event functioning since 1988[28])
In Los Angeles the Matzo Ball ceded the region to the much more locally long-standing Schmooz-a-Palooza hosted by Stu & Lew Productions[1] (which was acquired by JDate in 2006[29]), before becoming a co-promoter for the event with JDate.[19]
Matzo Ball events are organized by the Society of Young Jewish Professionals, an organization created by the founder of the event, Andy Rudnick.[1] The organizers believe that more than 1,000 marriages have resulted from meetings at various Matzo Balls, and Rudnick himself met his wife at a Matzo Ball.[1][30]
There are also a number of competitors to the Matzo Ball and other events organized in cities where no Matzo Ball is held.[1][14]
The Ball[edit]
The largest and most geographically widespread competitor is known simply as "The Ball".[1] In New York City, The Ball focuses on having separate venues, five as of the late 2000s, targeted by age demographic, and with attendees receiving limousine service between venues.[14][31]
In 2008, the organizer of The Ball, LetMyPeopleGo, attempted to expand the event into 24 other cities with significant Jewish populations.[32][33] In almost all of those cities, with local marketing and co-hosting of the event performed by JDate,[34] it was cancelled near the event date.[32][34][35] However, the Los Angeles version of The Ball, which was instead co-sponsored and co-marketed by the young adults divisions of the LA Guardians, the Los Angeles Jewish Home for the Aging foundation, was successful and held again in 2009.[36][37][38]
Niche and local events[edit]
Other New York City Jewish Christmas Eve events include parties for "the pro-Israel crowd, Jewish gays and lesbians, and downtown Jewish hipsters."[14]
The sheer number of events, combined with the compactness of Manhattan, means that events are often held within a short walking distance, if not eyesight of one another.[31]
Likewise, by 2008, Chicago Jewish Christmas Eve events ran the gamut of tastes and preferred crowd. These included gatherings named 'Rockmitzvah', 'Hubukkah', the 'Heebonism' bash (sponsored by Heeb Magazine), and the more mainstream 'The Juju Ball' and 'Retro Eve', a long running but now defunct event.[39]
In Washington, DC, a longtime competitor and alternative to the Matzo Ball has been the Gefilte Fish Gala, an event with no admission charge but only a requested donation, which is usually also held on Christmas Eve unless the night of the 24th coincides with Friday night, the Jewish sabbath.[40]
Beginning in 2010, an informal group of Washington, DC, Jewish young professionals decided to organize another competitor to the Matzo Ball, the Falafel Frenzy, with all proceeds going to charity.[41] The event has been successful in collecting money for local charities and continues to be held.[41]
Atlanta, which had previously hosted an annual "Matzah Ball" unrelated to the SYJP event,[42] has been the home of competing events for both mainstream audiences, such as the 'Bagel Bash',[43][44] and niche groups, such as the local NCJW section's recently inaugurated 'Santa Klutz Ball' for older singles.[45]
Heeb Magazine 'Heebonism' events[edit]
Heeb Magazine sponsored and organized its 'Heebonism' events in various U.S. cities on Christmas Eve, targeted toward a "hip" audience seeking an alternative to events like the Matzo Ball, beginning in the late 2000s.[8][39][46] By 2009, Heebonism had expanded to five cities nationally.[8] Nationally, Heebonism organizers sought to offer a more "culturally substantive" and non-conformist event, with activities including "strip dreidel", video games, and light food.[8][46] At the Los Angeles/Palm Springs Heebonism in 2009, strip dreidel was led by porn stars James Deen and Joanna Angel.[47] In Denver, the local Heebonism event had its origin as a private pre-party for those seeking alternative entertainment before heading to the Matzo Ball.[48] By 2013, Heebonism had retrenched and Heebonism events outside of Denver apparently have been eliminated.
Federation YAD/YLD Events[edit]
Other major cities have homegrown and well-attended Christmas Eve events that were established long before the Matzo Ball or The Ball entered the local scene. These include Seattle's Latkepalooza,[49] San Francisco's The Latke Ball,[50] Tampa's Vodka Latke,[1] and Phoenix's Mazelpalooza,[51] all of which are sponsored by their respective Jewish Federation's young professionals division.
In Chicago, the local Federation's YLD, in conjunction with Taglit - Birthright Israel, FIDF, and other groups, sponsors the Matzo Bash.[52][53]
Schmooz-a-Palooza is the long-running Los Angeles counterpart to the Matzo Ball, and in its 20th straight year in 2013.[1][54][55] It originated with Stu & Lew Productions, which was acquired by JDate in 2006.[29] The event evolved over the years from a social mixer to a party atmosphere, bringing together, for example, southern Californians who had not seen each other since their younger years in Jewish communal settings.[56][57] It was also a noted opportunity for reconnecting and romance.[58]
By the late 2000s and early 2010s, Schmooz-a-Palooza had become integrated into the Matzo Ball network of nationwide events[19][26] and faced competition from other local events, including a local young Jewish professionals charitable group's directly competing mixer and a Jewish comedy night at the Laugh Factory,[59] along with more loosely organized events, such as music performances by Jewish musicians and informal socializing and drinking organized by local Moishe Houses.[60]
Similarly named events unaffiliated with SYJP[edit]
Other Christmas Eve singles events[edit]
Prior to Rudnick's organizing of the Matzo Ball in Boston in 1987 and expansion into other cities, Jewish organizations in other cities had used similar names for their own Christmas Eve singles events.
The Jewish Community Center of Dallas had organized its "Matzoh Ball" beginning in either 1981[61] or 1984.[62] The Dallas event continues under that name currently[63] and is unaffiliated with the Matzo Ball event and Rudnick.[19] Atlanta also had its own "Matzah Ball" for many years.[42]
An identically named Matzoball event has been held on Christmas Eve in Toronto since 1988.[28] As of 2013, it is sponsored by the Canadian unit of the Jewish National Fund and organized by Magen Boys Entertainment.[28] The event organizers have indicated their desire to expand to other cities in Canada, particularly Montreal and Vancouver, in future years.[28]
The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles entertainment division organized a late spring "Matzah Bowl" event for a number of years, beginning in 1996.[64] In Atlanta, the promoter of the 'Bagel Bash' organized an early spring bowling function for singles called the "Matzah Bowl".[65] A 2009 Christmas Eve musical event at Brooklyn Bowl, co-sponsored by Israel's New York Consulate General, was dubbed "The Matzah Bowl".[66][67] The event derived its name in part from its location in a Brooklyn bowling alley.
Other events not targeted at single adults[edit]
Smaller Jewish community entities have also used variations on the "Matzo Bowl" name for a variety of events, including for knowledge competitions held by individual synagogues[68] and fundraising events organized by chapters of Alpha Epsilon Pi.[69]
The Greater Kansas City Council of BBYO and its AZA Nordaunian chapter sponsor a large annual teen dance called the Matzo Ball, which celebrated its 75th anniversary in April 2010.[70][71]
The Matzo Ball and similar events have been subject to mild criticism that the events are "meet markets"[8] or, more punningly, "[kosher] meat markets."[34][72] Women attendees tend to dress inappropriately in a revealing manner while men at the event are liable to use awkward pickup lines and noticeably prowl.[18][31][73]

Greenmarket Report: Fort Green Greenmarket
The Fort Greene Greenmarket has the feel of your favorite coffee shop: a few regulars, a few new people and always a sense of community. Liz Ellis, Greenmarket manager, is making an Alice Waters heirloom tomato salad in one corner and next to her, BAM is providing the music. And with its fish, meat, milk, cheese, bread and produce stands, it's perfect for one-stop shopping.
At Wilklow Orchards, Highland, NY: all heirloom tomatoes, which are at their peak right now, including Garden Peach, Orange Strawberry and Italian Heart, $4/lb; red currants, $3/pint; peaches and nectarines, $2/lb; blackberries, $6/lb.
At Red Jacket Orchards, Geneva, NY: apricots, $4.50/quart; plums, $3.50/quart; New Jersey Macintosh apples, $1.25/lb.
You might think Red Jacket Orchards, which primarily sells apples, would be taking its cues from the lazy days of summer. Instead, Justone, who runs Red Jacket Orchards' Greenmarket program, is priming for the beginning of apple season, which in his world, has already started. When I think of apples, I think of crisp fall days and leaves the shade of sunsets and sunrises. But the first apples of the season, New Jersey Macintosh, are already in. Summer apples, as some call them. They're crispy, juicy and cheek-sucking tart. New Jersey Macintosh, and the other varieties, are grown on about 500 acres of land outside Geneva, New York. Red Jacket Orchards is not certified organic but they practice integrated pest management, which involves keeping the trees small to avoid a lot of spray and also targeting only those trees that need help.
Beginning in September you'll recognize some of your favorites, like Gala, and a new favorite, Ginger Gold. As Justone explains, Ginger Gold was allegedly born during a lucky cross-breeding incident during a hurricane in West Virginia about twenty years ago. They're crispy sweetness is perfect in one of his favorite apple recipes: grate the apple and slice a bulb of fennel; toss with olive oil, salt and lemon. Sauté sea scallops with a mixture of honey and orange and serve with the apple fennel salad. A slightly different way to enjoy a very familiar fruit.

I used to live on Washington Park right across the street from this Farmer's Market in Fort Greene. I can still remember the night before the very first day of this market: I was like a little kid the night before Christmas, canvas tote by the door, awake and out that door at 8am, I could barely sleep! It's small but very sweet and seems to have just about everything you would need.
What day/days of the week are they open?
I like your description of them as a "one stop shop."

January 27th, 1945: the prisoners remaining at the Auschwitz concentration camp were liberated. I'm really ashamed about what humas can do, sometimes. Let's not forget that millions of people died because of someone's ignorance. Let's not make this happen again.
I love this photo, even if it is so sad.

Still have my Spelling B trophy way back in 5th grade. I don't care if I won 3rd place, I was top 3 out of 20 students. A day that I felt proud of myself & even today I'm glad that I took action in. The best-happy feeling ever in my life. I'm the first one in my family to earn a trophy through hard work & I'm the youngest. Very proud of myself.

text: During the Oakland Raiders' game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, some key guys went down due to injury. Here are the statuses of these players: Darren McFadden: Star running back Darren McFadden suffered a high ankle sprain on Sunday. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, McFadden's injury took place on the first play of the game, but he tried playing through it until aggravating it again in the second quarter. He did have X-rays, and they came back negative. He has missed practice the past two days and is not expected to play this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. Mike Goodson: Back-up running back Mike Goodson also suffered a painful high ankle sprain against the Buccaneers last Sunday. No X-rays were taken, as the Raiders' staff didn't think it was necessary. He hasn't been practicing since the injury, so it's not likely that he'll be able to play this week against the Ravens either. Head coach Dennis Allen hasn't ruled out McFadden or Goodson from playing this week, but it just doesn't seem likely that they'll be able to give it a go. They have both been spending time in protective boots, so the Raiders are preparing to face Baltimore without them. That said, look for Taiwan Jones to step up and start at running back. "I'm definitely excited. There's an opportunity for me to extend my role on the team," Jones said. "I'm getting the opportunity so I want to make the most of it." On another note, seven-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Richard Seymour has missed practice the past two days due to a hamstring injury. The Raiders allowed 251 rushing yards to rookie Doug Martin last week, so if Seymour doesn't play, how many yards will Ray Rice rack up? With these injuries, the Raiders desperately need players to step up and contribute to the team, especially if they want to make the postseason (which everybody does). Look for Carson Palmer to throw a lot of passes come Sunday, as the Raiders will probably crawl away from their running game without their top two running backs.

Control Your Apps Without Your Finger
VincenzoRomano (881055) writes | more than 4 years ago0
VincenzoRomano (881055) writes "There's a nice article about a new approach to human interaction to your mobile phone (and maybe your other computers),
Basically you won't need to swipe your fingers over smallish touch screens.
You'll move your arms, hands and fingers (or whatever else applies) in the air or will shake the handset.
The phone camera(s), the G-sensor, the compass and so on will be used by a software to understand the gestures and to translate them into control commands.
This breakthrough comes from a company called GestureTek, a non-startup company in this field.
The idea seems to be brilliant, but a number of issues are just behind the corner, like privacy and politeness in crowded places."

"I have been to Georgia Tech for the Syracuse game and the Virginia game," said Edmonds. "I really like the atmosphere there and I like the school a lot. I have gotten to talk to Coach [Lamar] Owens a lot and I like him. Georgia Tech has a great engineering program and that is what I want to major in - that is great too."
Georgia Tech is one of a handful of schools that are already aware of the 6-foot, 180 pound cornerback out of Atlanta (Ga.) The Westminster Schools.
"I am hearing from Northwestern, Boston College, Florida State, Cornell, and Princeton some too."
Edmonds does not have any clear favorites right now, but Georgia Tech has impressed him early on and a school up north has always had his interest.
"My favorite school has always been Ohio State. I have family up there in Ohio and most of my mom's family lives there. I have always watched Ohio State and I still like them a lot."
No offers just yet for Edmonds, but those will come in time.
He has three interceptions this season and he talks a little about his game.
"I think I really see the field well and my vision is a strength," said Edmonds. "I also think I can cover well and that I am a solid tackler."
Edmonds has been timed at 4.45 seconds in the 40 yard dash.
Westminster travels to Jefferson Friday for their first round playoff game.

Aron Ralston speaks Wednesday during the American Red Cross Hometown Heroes luncheon at the Chattanooga Convention Center. Ralston was trapped for 127 hours in a canyon, and had to remove his arm to free himself.Staff Photo by Angela Lewis/Chattanooga Times Free Press
Aron Ralston, the outdoor adventurer known for cutting off his right arm when it became trapped by a boulder, spoke today at the American Red Cross Hometown Heroes Luncheon.
He told the packed crowd at the Chattanooga Convention Center that it was the first time since a family vacation a quarter century ago that he's been to Chattanooga.
"It's the first time in 25 years since I've been here," he said.
Ralston recounted his experiences of hiking through the desert of Utah in April 2003, then entering a canyon where a boulder fell on his arm. After being trapped under the boulder for six days, he cut the arm off with a dull knife.
He wrote a book called "Between a Rock and a Hard Place" and was the subject of the major motion picture, "127 Hours," starring James Franco.
Ralston said today that he never grows tired of recounting the experience.
"I'm still growing from it," he said.
For more information, read tomorrow's Times Free Press.
Everyone should read his book. The thing that I found interesting or odd was that after he was trapped for days, cut his own arm off, walked for miles, repelled a cliff face and was taken to a hospital he made the remark that, "I hate needles" when receiving an injection.
