Spending Detente Results in Transportation Cuts
Wednesday, March 02, 2011
(Washington, DC -- Todd Zwillich, Transportation Nation) Republicans and Democrats locked in a spending fight on Capitol Hill appear to have averted the specter of a government shutdown, for now. But the deal that sidestepped the showdown dealt some blows to transportation funding.
House Republicans easily passed a bill Tuesday extending government operations for two weeks beyond the current March 4th deadline. The idea is to give Republican and Democratic negotiators more time to cut a deal on government funding through September 30, the the remainder of Fiscal 2011. But the Republican-led Congress believes the American public is in the mood for spending cuts, so even the two-week peace offering contained $4 billion in immediate cuts.
That includes a $650 million cut in highway spending. The trim comes from increased spending from last fiscal year that the Obama Administration did not wish to continue anyway, according to the White House's 2012 Budget. The additional spending would have sent more money to states through existing highway formulas, but will be cut if the president signs the 2-week extension bill.
The bill also shaves off $293 million in "surface transportation" earmarks, and another $25 million that would have been earmarked for "rail line relocation." It's all part of a move to kill about $2.7 billion in earmark spending in the measure.
The 2-week extension goes to the Senate floor today, where Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has predicted it will be approved. Then its on to President Obama's desk for a signature. But that hardly gets Congress into the clear. The bill only buys lawmakers a bit more time to continue negotiations on funding government operations for the rest of the fiscal year. Republicans are gunning for at least $61 billion in total spending reductions, so they'll still have an appetite for more cuts.

BREAKING: Florida Governor Says Lawsuit "Disrespects" Taxpayers
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(Kate Hinds, Transportation Nation) Gov. Rick Scott just issued a terse statement in response to a lawsuit seeking to force him to accept federal money for the state's high-speed rail project.
"My position remains unchanged, I've yet to see any evidence that Florida taxpayers would not be on the hook. Senators Altman and Joyner's disrespect for taxpayers is clear by their lawsuit trying to force the state to spend this money."
Earlier today two state senators filed a lawsuit in Florida Supreme Court, saying the governor had overstepped his constitutional authority. The court has given Scott a deadline of noon tomorrow to respond.
Metro-North's New Haven Line To Restore Full Service on Monday
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(New York, NY -Jim O'Grady, WNYC) Riders on Metro North Railroad's New Haven Line will get their regular service back sooner than expected on Monday.
The NYC MTA abruptly cut the line's schedule by 10 percent in early February after winter storms disabled its old cars faster than repairs could be made. Most of those cuts were made to rush hour trains on the already crowded commuter line from Manhattan to Connecticut. For years, the line has routinely run trains with fewer cars than platforms can handle, leading to standing-room-only crushes during peak times.
The MTA has said the service problems can be traced to a funding gap caused by Connecticut's refusal to pay for new trains for years, beginning in 2000. (A fuller explanation of the funding problem is here.)
A return to full service wasn't expected until spring, with the arrival of new train cars.
But this morning, Metro-North President Howard Permut said the MTA activated eight new cars that--along with more repairs--will allow the railroad to run more trains.
"Next week, the trains will be crowded," he said. "But they will not be nearly as crowded as they were during January, when they were jammed."
Permut talked to reporters at Grand Central Station this morning, having ridden on the maiden trip of the new train cars from Stamford, Connecticut.
Back of the Bus: The Courts Weigh In on Transportation Equity
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(San Francisco--Casey Miner, KALW News) If you've had a chance to listen to Back of the Bus, you know a little something about civil rights and Bay Area transportation. The quick version: local transit advocates believe money goes disproportionately to big rail projects like the Oakland Airport Connector at the expense of the local bus service used primarily by low-income and minority riders. Last month the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on that topic -- and it says the transit advocates are wrong. But you can bet the story won't end here.
Florida's High-Speed Rail Case on Fast Track
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(Kate Hinds, Transportation Nation) The Florida Supreme Court has requested that Governor Rick Scott respond by noon tomorrow to a lawsuit filed earlier today by two state senators. (The court scheduling notice can be found here.) The senators are arguing that Scott doesn't have the authority to reject federal funds for the program.
Meanwhile, Florida Senator Bill Nelson has requested more time from Ray LaHood. The transportation secretary had said that if an agreement isn't reached on high-speed rail by this Friday, he'll give the $2.4 billion to other states. Senator Nelson writes:
Dear Mr. Secretary:
I know you believe the high-speed rail proposal for Florida is among the best such projects in the country. And, as you know, I certainly agree.
I cannot thank you enough for all your efforts so far to save the project in Florida, including granting us an extra week extension to find a subgrantee. I am writing now to ask that you please allow at least one additional week before having to give our money and jobs to another state.
Specifically, some lawmakers in Florida today sued Gov. Rick Scott in a bipartisan effort to stop him from killing high-speed rail. Their suit asks the Florida Supreme Court to order Scott to expeditiously accept the $2.4 billion in federal transportation money, and it seeks an injunction if necessary.
The plaintiffs who filed the suit called me this morning to ask that I convey to you their request for more time for the court to consider their case and to ensure that Florida gets the money it was awarded.
I thank you in advance for your favorable consideration. I am enclosing the aforementioned lawsuit. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions.
The Department of Transportation had no comment on the letter.
Also maintaining radio silence is Congressman John Mica, who's been balancing his roles as the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and being a Republican from Florida -- and whose own plan to save the state's high-speed rail program gained no traction.
BREAKING: Florida High Speed Rail Lawsuit -- State Senators Say Gov has "Exceeded... Constitutional Authority"
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(Kate Hinds, Transportation Nation) Two state senators have filed a lawsuit to force Florida Governor Rick Scott to "expeditiously accept" $2.4 billion in federal money for the state's high-speed rail plan.
Republican Thad Altman and Democrat Arthenia Joyner claim in their petition to the Florida Supreme Court that the governor has overstepped his authority and is legally obligated to accept the high-speed rail money from the federal government, because the Florida State Legislature voted in December 2009 to authorize the project.
The massive document, which contains not only the legal argument but dozens of exhibits and letters, can be found here (pdf) or below.
Governor Scott said two weeks ago he was rejecting funds for high-speed rail because he was convinced there would be cost overruns. Since then, US Department of Transportation Secretary RayLaHood granted the governor two one-week extensions in an effort to change his mind. But the governor said as recently as this morning that he remained unconvinced.
Governor Scott's office has not yet returned calls seeking his comment on the lawsuit, while the Department of Transportation has no comment. More as we learn it!
Union Big: Use Overseas Profit Tax to Fund Infrastructure Bank
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
(New York, NY -- Bob Hennelly, WNYC) As we've reported, the idea of using an infrastructure bank to fund big projects is gaining steam. The most recent evidence was in the President's budget, released last month. But questions about where the tens of billions of seed money would come from remain unanswered.
Now Andy Stern, a Senior Fellow at Georgetown Public Policy Institute and the former president of the Service Employees International Union, has a possible solution. He thinks it's wise to induce US multi-nationals to repatriate some of their foreign profits with a tax holiday. Because none of that money is getting taxed now, he said the tax rate could even be lowered to a minimum rate of 5.25 percent on overseas profits, well below the current 35 percent. He wants that new revenue to be put to work here in the United States re-building the nation's aging and dysfunctional infrastructure.
"It could be more than that — but the minimum should be at least 5.25 percent," Stern said in a telephone interview. "That would generate at least $40 to 50 billion dollars for opening equity in an infrastructure bank. That in turn could be additionally leveraged into $500 billion."

Ride Shotgun With an Electric Car Test Driver
Tuesday, March 01, 2011
What is it like to be an early adopter of electric vehicles? President Barack Obama set a goal of having 1 million electric vehicles on the road by 2015 in his State of the Union, but today there are only a few hundred Americans driving electrics. Last November an attorney from White Plains traded his speedy Camaro in for a chance to be a test driver for the Chevrolet Volt, an electric car that he has used to commute 14 miles from his home to West Nyack.

NY MTA Chief Spars With Legislators Over Paying for Transit With Payroll Tax
Monday, February 28, 2011
(New York, NY - Jim O'Grady, WNYC) In a sometimes heated hearing, state legislators and NYC Chairman Jay Walder squared off on the payroll tax that the NY state legislature approved in 2009 to bail out the agency. The tax applies to businesses in the twelve counties the MTA serves in an around New York City.
"We are paying greater freight in the suburbs for the services that are basically New York City services," said Assemblywoman Nancy Calhoun from Orange and Rockland Counties, reflecting a common view among suburban legislators.
Walder said he didn't see the tax as a short-term fix but a part of the MTA's permanent financing solution. "I don't foresee a plan in any time frame in which you can phase out the payroll tax," he said, when asked if the MTA could ever balance its budget without it.
Walder said the tax--in which each employer pays one-third of one percent of its payroll to the state--brings in $1.4 billion a year to the authority. That's fifteen times the money saved by all of last year's service cuts.
Walder said the MTA wouldn't raise fares or cut service to meet its 2011 budget. But he wouldn't rule out adding more layoffs to the 1,700 workers laid off last year.
New York Governor Cuomo has repeatedly said that he is open to a "better way" of funding the MTA than by a payroll tax. But has yet to propose an alternative.
The payroll tax was part of a bailout package proposed by Richard Ravitch, the former MTA chief who later became Lt. Governor under David Paterson. Ravitch had initially proposed the tax in conjunction with a toll on the East River Bridges that are now free -- including the Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Williamsburg Bridges. But those tolls were rejected, and a watered-down package including the payroll tax, a taxi-cab surcharge, and a tax on rental cars was ultimately passed.
Senators To Florida: You Gonna Eat Those HSR Funds?
Monday, February 28, 2011
(Washington D.C. - David Schultz, WAMU) Have you ever been out to a restaurant with a group of people and one person didn't quite finish their entree? Whenever this happens, I'm usually the first to broach that eternal question, "You gonna eat that?"
I realize in some circles this is interpreted as uncouth behavior. I ask the question not to offend, but simply as a means to distribute a meal more efficiently. In other words, if you're not going to eat it, I will.
And I'm not the only one who holds these controversial views. Ten Democratic Senators from the northeast sent a letter to Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood on Friday asking that $2.4 million in high speed rail funds semi-rejected by Florida Governor Rick Scott (R) be redirected to their states. In other words, if Florida won't eat it, they will.

President Obama To Governors: I Know Infrastructure Projects Have Been Controversial
Monday, February 28, 2011
(Andrea Bernstein, Transportation Nation) Our sister site, It's a Free Country, just posted a video of President Obama speaking to the National Governor's Association today. (Obama starts 27:27 in, infrastructure comments about 39 minutes in.) His remarks are the first time the President has directly addressed infrastructure since Governor Rick Scott of Florida said he'd kill the high speed rail project there. (Scott is now considering reversing his decision.)
President Obama said:
"I know in some of your states, infrastructure projects have garnered controversy, and sometimes they've gotten caught up in partisan politics. This hasn't traditionally been a partisan issue. Lincoln laid the rails during the course of a civil war. Eisenhower built the interstate highway system. Both parties have always believed that America should have the best of everything. We don't have third-rate airports, third-rate bridges and third-rate highways. That's not who we are. We shouldn't start going down that path. New companies are going to seek out the fastest, most reliable ways to move people, goods and information, whether they're in Chicago or they're in Shanghai, and I want them to be here in the United States."
Federal Judge Won't Hear Appeal on Green Taxis
Monday, February 28, 2011
(New York -- WNYC Newsroom) The Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal by New York City officials who want to force cabs to purchase more fuel-efficient cars.
The suit was brought by the Metropolitan Taxicab Board of Trade in 2007, when the city first announced plans to require cabs get at least 30 miles per gallon by 2009. Spokesman Michael Woloz said the victory is bittersweet. "It's very unfortunate because everybody — the city and the industry — could have used that four years to really get a more fuel-efficient fleet on the streets already," he said.
Woloz said that time could have been spent negotiating for a more reasonable time table to phase in fuel-efficient cabs.
Taxi and Limousine commissioner David Yassky said in a statement that the city would seek other ways to improve the city's air. He said some fleet owners have seen the "clear logic" of using greener cabs, and have voluntarily put 4,300 hybrids in service. Yassky will be on WNYC around 4:40 p.m. to discuss the decision today.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the city will try to lobby federal officials, and that Monday's decision won't put a cramp in the city's greening plan. Federal judges said it is up to federal agencies and not local officials to regulate fuel economy and emission standards.

US DOT Fines American for Undisclosed Voucher Fees
Monday, February 28, 2011
UPDATED: With response from American Airlines
(Alex Goldmark, Transportation Nation) The U.S. Department of Transportation fined American Airlines $90,000 Monday for charging passengers undisclosed voucher fees. Airlines routinely offer free flight vouchers as an incentive to give up a seats on oversold flights. A DOT investigation found that American was not telling passengers about restrictions, including a $30 ticketing fee, on the use of those flight vouchers.
This is the first time the DOT has issued a fine on an airline for failing to disclose fees.
"When passengers volunteer to give up their seat on an oversold flight, they are entitled to be fully compensated – not to find out later that they're getting $30 less," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. "Passengers deserve to be treated fairly when they fly, and especially when they've volunteered to give up their seat because the airline overbooked their flight."
In a statement the DOT explained the rules for "bumping" and vouchers this way: "an airline must first seek volunteers willing to give up their seat on an oversold flight before bumping passengers involuntarily. The carrier may offer any type or amount of compensation agreed to by the volunteer, in contrast to involuntary bumping situations, where DOT rules require airlines to pay passengers cash compensation in most cases."
An investigation by the DOT's Aviation Enforcement Office found that American offered travel vouchers valued at specific dollar amounts as compensation for voluntary bumping. However, when awarding the vouchers, the DOT found, American did not tell passengers about a ticketing fee required to redeem the vouchers, nor that the vouchers could not be redeemed on the carrier's internet site.
The DOT stresses that the process for redeeming oversales flight vouchers remains more cumbersome and complicated than purchasing a ticket or redeeming other flight vouchers.

Washington State, DOT, Others Ink Agreement on High Speed Rail
Saturday, February 26, 2011
At least something is going right for Ray LaHood...
US DOT released the following today:
U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood Statement on High-Speed Rail Agreement in Washington State
Washington, DC – U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood issued the following statement today:
"President Obama's historic investments in a national high-speed rail network will enable America to win the future by creating construction and manufacturing jobs today and laying the foundation for future economic growth. By building safe, reliable and energy-efficient passenger rail corridors we will be able to help small businesses thrive and move people and goods more quickly than ever before. I am thrilled to congratulate the State of Washington, BNSF, and Amtrak for their contributions to the agreement signed today by the Federal Railroad Administration and Washington DOT that will make $590 million available for work to begin on significant improvements to the popular Cascades corridor, which connects Eugene, Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver. Thanks to the hard work, dedication, and flexibility of all parties involved in the negotiations, this agreement will immediately put Washingtonians to work in good paying jobs, significantly improve rail service for commuters and travelers, and preserve the world-class freight rail system America has today."
Additional background on the agreement:
As part of the President's long-term vision to give 80% of Americans access to high-speed rail in the next 25 years, this initial $590 million in funding for high-speed and intercity passenger rail will create more than 6,000 direct and indirect jobs in the Washington region. And thanks to the performance standards included in this agreement, travelers will benefit from two additional daily roundtrips between Seattle and Portland, a 10 minute reduction in travel time, and reliability improvements of up to 88%. With the signing of this agreement, 5 of the 6 high-speed rail corridors that require coordination with freight railroads now have a signed agreement in place. The Department of Transportation will build on this momentum to realize President Obama's vision of a national high-speed rail system that will allow American workers to out-build, out-innovate, and out-compete the rest of the world.
Report Says Improving Outer Borough Bus Service Is Key To NYC Job Growth
Saturday, February 26, 2011
(New York, NY - Jim O'Grady, WNYC) The outer boroughs of New York City are creating jobs, but the newly employed might have some trouble commuting: New York's bus service has not kept pace with employment growth. Those are claims in a report just released by the Center for an Urban Future, a think tank in Lower Manhattan.
The report says that over the past two decades, the number of outer borough residents commuting from borough to borough or within their borough has been increasing much faster than the number who make the more traditional trip into Manhattan's business districts. Because the subways are generally oriented toward moving riders to and from Manhattan, many outer borough residents with outer borough jobs take the bus.
The report's author, David Giles, says the outer borough bus system is straining under the weight of 60 percent more riders since 1990.
"Despite the fact that transit ridership patterns have been shifting, with more people working in the boroughs, the MTA and NYC Department of Transportation have not made the investments necessary to keep up with these trends," he writes.
The study, called "Behind the Curb," concludes that "the biggest losers in all this have been New York City's working poor."
The report goes on to say that New York has the slowest bus speeds in the country. Not surprisingly, outer borough bus riders have the longest median commutes.
But the outer boroughs are where New York's new jobs are. Giles says Manhattan had a net loss of 109,029 jobs between 2000 and 2009. But during the same period, the outer boroughs saw employment gains: Staten Island with 4,045 jobs (a 4.6 percent increase); Queens with 11,584 jobs (2.4 percent); the Bronx with 16,557 jobs (7.7 percent); and Brooklyn with 35,010 jobs (7.9 percent).
Those jobs were mostly produced by the health care and education sectors. But other large employers--like the new Hunts Point Market in the Bronx with 20,000 employees and JFK Airport in Queens with 50,000 employees--complain that it's getting harder for their employees in the boroughs to reach work because, in part, the buses are getting more crowded. Additionally, as new employers spread out, some of them are far from existing bus lines.
The Center recommends the city speed up the roll-out of Select Bus Service--buses with dedicated lanes and, in some cities, technology to move faster by keeping lights in their favor. It also calls for the state to commit to a dedicated revenue stream for the MTA, something transit advocates have been saying for years.
Listen to the report's author, David Giles, discuss his findings on WNYC Radio.
Small Victory for Houston Cyclists, Pedestrians
Friday, February 25, 2011
(Houston -- Wendy Siegle, KUHF) Cyclists in the Houston area won a small victory Friday. At its monthly meeting the Transportation Policy Council, decided to postpone a vote on a proposal to stall several bike and pedestrian projects.
[Listen to the KUHF audio version of this story]
The decision comes after more than thirty people showed up at the meeting to voice their concern. Barbara Jusiak was one of them. "I ride my bicycle to and from the Texas Medical Center every day. And I believe that the ability to cycle safely and to get around on foot is very important to quality of life in a city."
The Transportation Policy Council allocates money for transportation projects throughout the greater Houston region. The proposal in question has to do with how the TPC will divvy up $345 million dollars that's coming from two parts of a federally funded program.
Alan Clark is the director of transportation and planning at the Houston-Galveston Area Council. He calls this particular funding the flexible part of the program. "Because although they are highway dollars, they can be used in some cases to support funding for transit, pedestrian, bicycle-type facilities," he says.
Clark says what's also unique is that the TPC has control over how the money is used, as opposed to that decision being made in Austin or Washington. If the proposal is approved, $12.8 million dollars that's planned for transit, bikeway, and walkability projects would possibly be stalled one or more years. That would mean 78 percent of the pot would go to roads and freight rail while just over 11 percent would be spent on building bikeways, sidewalks, and other initiatives that would take people out of their cars. Matthew Reisdorf is a father of two.

The Menomonee Falls Police Department has been ramping up enforcement over the St. Patrick's Day holiday period.
To combat drunken driving and increase safety belt use, the Police Department has intensified its traffic safety enforcement since March 4 and will continue to do so through March 20, which includes the St. Patrick's Day weekend.
The increased enforcement is part of a $20,000 grant that Menomonee Falls received from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Safety.
"During the St. Patrick's Day mobilization and throughout the year, we are striving to prevent motorists from killing and injuring themselves and others on our roadways. Although we're trying to increase voluntarily compliance with traffic laws - not to write more tickets or make more arrests - we will take enforcement action if voluntary compliance fails," said Police Chief Anna Ruzinski. "We are serious about traffic safety enforcement because far too many needless deaths and serious injuries are due to drunken driving and not wearing safety belts."
She said one of the department's goals is to reduce preventable traffic deaths to zero in Wisconsin.

South Africa's African National Congress makes AIDS its top priority
BY Advocate.com Editors
December 31 2002 1:00 AM ET
The African National Congress, South Africa's ruling party, last week announced it would make HIV/AIDS its top priority, a move that represents a significant policy shift for a party that has faced criticism for years of neglect on the issue. "Given the progression of the AIDS epidemic, our program of transformation should not only acknowledge this danger, but it must also put the campaign against it at the top of our agenda," the ANC said in a statement.
ANC spokesperson and strategist Joel Netshitenzhe said that his party now understands that AIDS has "ballooned into a huge problem" since the party's last conference in 1997 and they are "ready to deal with it." Almost 5 million South Africans, or one in nine residents, are estimated to be HIV-positive. Netshitenzhe said the ANC will soon release an "appropriate resolution" on how the party plans to fight HIV/AIDS, which experts say will likely involve multiple strategies, including providing antiretroviral drugs and helping to eliminate poverty to improve overall health.

|Name: _________________________
|Period: ___________________
This test consists of 5 short answer questions and 1 (of 3) essay topics.
Short Answer Questions
1. Where does Enobarbus seek to die?
2. Whom does Caesar send to Antony to implore him to surrender in the first scene of the final act?
3. Of what animal of Thessaly does Cleopatra speak?
4. What do the soldiers hear after Enobarbus dies?
5. What does Cleopatra tell her messenger to report as her last word to Antony?
Essay Topics
Write an essay for ONE of the following topics:
Essay Topic 1
A seldom explicitly mentioned theme throughout the play is the fidelity and infidelity of minor characters despite maltreatment and disregard for their more fundamental rights. Thoughtfully explicate this theme in a well-developed essay. How do the various minor characters demonstrate their fidelity and to whom? For what reasons do the characters evidently remain loyal? Contrariwise, which characters forsake their obligations to fidelity, and for what reasons are they motivated to do so? What do these various relationships of disparate levels of fidelity indicate about the fundamental human tendencies regarding loyalty?
Essay Topic 2
Throughout the play, there is a regularly occurring but never explicitly mentioned theme of tyrannical rule. Tyranny, in the modern conception, is defined as the rule of any authoritative figure or body for the sake of his or their own good, without consideration of those who are ruled. In a thoughtful essay, analyze the presence of this theme in all of the powerful rulers throughout the play. How do they rule for their own good? In what way does this rule affect those who are ruled, be it positive or negative? In what scenes or actions do the various rulers evince tyrannical tendencies?
Essay Topic 3
Throughout Antony and Cleopatra's stormy relationship in the play, it is shown that their love is always a hair's-breadth away from becoming hate, and vice-versa. In a well-developed analytical essay, examine the nature of Antony and Cleopatra's relationship insofar as it alternates from one extreme to another. What propels the characters to launch from one condition to another? How is hate assuaged and love incited? In what way are the two conditions similarly portrayed?

Op-ed: How I Married 110 Same-Sex Couples
BY Marilee Harrison
September 17 2013 5:05 AM ET
OK. I was not needed. Feeling a little awkward with my robe and stole over my arm, I stood with observers, families, and friends while media covered the event. The room brimmed with emotion. Part of me was full to the brim too, with gratitude for the chance to be even on the fringe of the occasion.
Then came the prayer, and the admonitions to become part of a faith community for the sake of their relationships caught my attention. I became uneasy, with a familiar feeling I had as a volunteer for the Red Cross after September 11, when I heard a speaker reference religion to a diverse, grief-stricken group. One-size-fits-all assumptions of religious uniformity are an ill-fitting garment for those in sorrow or happiness. I saw what looked like discomfort for some, and mine grew into a resolve to provide a secular option for any others who wanted to marry that day.

you can always try to ask a proxy if they can go to the event and get the items you want
but usually there's more added fees than normal for these (and it tends to be quite more expensive if the person only goes to the event to buy your item)
and also you have to ask them beforehand because they have to be sure they have time to go etc etc etc
I remember I once asked a shop if they could get a plushie that was going to be released first in a event but they told me they couldn't go because they're busy at that time and in the end I had to wait for the oficial online pre-reserve one month later orz (though that was their fault because they answered me like 2 weeks later...)

Yes, there are a few places. Not many though...
One is Akibadaisuki.jp, your place to go if you're after c86 items. I use it mainly for doujinshi artbooks.
Another would be Mandarake. The website may seem a bit amateurish, but it's actually among the larger Japanese online storefronts for that stuff. And mind you there's a ton of second-hand stuff in addition to newer stuff, and as such some counterfeits may sometimes slip past so advice is research what you purchase if possible.
Both above have English as option so using them is easy.
There was also PaletWeb, but unfortunately that site ceased operations not that long ago...

Comiket usually has some goods I want, but man... I really don't think I can deal with the long lines there. I live in Tokyo, and that's the one otaku-related thing I feel hesitant to do. Tokyo Game Show is fine. Other large events are fine. But this is much, much larger. The problem is I'm an introvert that really needs their own space. Standing-room-only concerts in Japan freak me the heck out because I usually have people leaning against me and smacking me with glow sticks the entire time. After putting up with several, I have broken down and decided I'll never go to one again.
No, the packed trains don't bother me that much because people tend to try to stay in their own space. They're not all leaning on me or hitting me with things. I also have tricks to avoid packed trains and/or get seats.

Fantastic Detective Labyrinth Sub.DVD
Fantastic Detective Labyrinth combines a lot of genres in a bid to be an interesting mash-up of mystery and fantasy, but someone during production got lost along the way. ― There are times when the title of the series is just too ambitious for what it turns out to be.

As a Creative Boot Camp attendee, I'm pretty familiar with the Creative Nail Design group. They're fun, cutting-edge, hard workers, and the company and its educators consider themselves one big family.
More than 250 nail technicians from around the globe (including England, Germany, New Zealand, and Japan) came to Las Vegas for the four-day education-focused event. The first three days of Global Summit included a Creative history lesson, an inspirational speech by gold medel gymnast Tim Daggett, sanitation training, hands-on workshops, the 20th anniversary party, and a fashion show that tracked the development of nails from 1970 to 2000 and beyond. At the fashion show, Creative debuted its stylebook,

The law provides that you have the right to evict a tenant for cause. However, if you are doing it with no notice then it can be more difficult. The reason is, as the laws are made in most states the rules for immediate eviction is allowed in the case of tenants doing illegal or dangerous activities - those that cause immediate problems or even danger to the tenants themselves, the property or others around them. These are considered obvious grounds for a quick eviction process. However, while minor violations technically could cause the use of this clause, it is not an open door to run through. For instance, if one clause on the lease says your tenant is to maintain the property and landscaping, and you have found that the grass has not been left uncut too many times, very rarely will a judge grant an eviction without the normal waiting period. So if the tenant is violating laws, doing dangerous activities, is damaging the property, is causing significant problems for neighbors, then you probably are on the right track. If it is because you simply do not like them, or are trying to get them out on a more minor issue, you will have a much more difficult time doing it. Make sure you have proper and ample documentation: photos, copies of police reports, statements from witnesses and neighbors to take to court to convince the judge why you need to have a faster eviction. Good luck.
by rlloydevans - a day ago
beware in every state in us your provision can not override state statute in regard to landlord tenant law as such without knowing your state, a move for eviction for a reason of other than non-payment of rent will require notice to cease then after certain point a notice evict even then the judge may find the infraction within the lease does not rise to the level of material breach therefore eviction fails
by goz1111 - a day ago
It's unnecessary. The law presumes you have the right to evict a tenant who violates the terms of the lease. But it doesn't hurt having it there. What it does NOT do for you is bypass the requirement to proceed with eviction through the courts. That includes all of the notice requirements and specific procedures as established in law. There is no way to bypass that. Nothing in your lease contract can side-step the notice requirements established in law. If the law says you must provide 10 days notice to "Pay or Quit" or "Cure or Quit" then you MUST provide that notice in the manner stipulated in the law and prove that you did.
by Bostonian In MO - a day ago
Here is the problem with your contract. If STATE LAW prohibits what is in the contract, which I guarantee it does, then your entire contract is void and not worth the piece of paper it's written on. There is also something in the law that states if the conctract is so completely one sided, a judge has the right to disregard it. People think that just because they go to a lawyer, and just because it's in the lease, and just because a tenant signs it, that it is enforceable in court...there are laws to protect tenants for a reason. What you have basically stated, is that ONLY YOU have the sole authority to determine if there is a contract breach, and in effect, have TAKEN AWAY any legal rights that the tenant has. If I were you, I would proceed very carefully when you go to court, because the judge will rip you a new one when he reads that clause. PS: If your tenant is 21 days late on the rent, you cannot, by statute, persue an eviction. The minimum will be 30 days. If you are going to be a landlord, get a qualified attorney to write your leases. It is NOT LEGAL by any stretch of the imagination.

Barely two months after parting ways with May D, Square Records and Northside Entertainment is said to be closing in on a young Ghanaian Afro-Pop singer, Predy X, known in real life as Samuel Omane-Mensah.
Square Records, who parted ways with May D over "irreconcilable differences", is keen on getting the highly-rated Ghanaian youngster into its fold.
According to sources close to CEO of Square Records and Northside Entertainment, Jude 'Engees' Okoye, the deal was expected to be concluded in the "coming days".
Bayo Adetu, publicist for Square Records, which features the talented music duo P-Square, is reported to have told a Nigerian magazine, Entertainment Today that their pursuit of Predy X was due to his versatile music talent.
Asked how they discovered Predy X, the Square label publicist is reported to have said that "a top producer" mentioned him in a discussion; therefore the management of the label assessed him and decided to give him a chance.
Samuel Omane-Mensah aka Predy X, who is signed on to X Entertainment, is expected to move his base to Nigeria to agree to terms of Square Records, with the latter keen on avoiding the same mistake that led to its separation with May D.
Currently, Predy X's 'Dance With My Baby' is enjoying massive play in pubs and nightclubs in Nigeria and Ghana.
The 25-year-old musician, a graduate of Ghana Institute of Journalism, is optimistic that the deal will materialize as soon as possible.
In an interview with Nigeria Entertainment Today, Predy X disclosed that his hard work was finally paying off.
According to him, "I am sure what might have endeared me to Square Records is my knack for performing with live bands rather than miming."
