Biting Fly Trap controls nuisance biting flies
Catching flies has never been easier. Simply place a Biting Fly Trap every 70–100' around the perimeter you want to protect. Biting flies are attracted to the special fiberglass panel when sunlight shines through it, which leaves them trapped on the replaceable sticky sleeve. Each fly trap collects up to 5,000 flies before the sticky sleeve needs to be replaced. Requires no poisons, baits or electricity. Each trap contains one fiberglass cylinder, two sticky sleeves, one 24"H wooden stake, two large paper clips and two brass-plated paper fasteners. USA made. Replacement sticky sleeves (Item No. 217796) sold separately.

As a January toll increase for the Port Mann Bridge looms, drivers who use the bridge increasingly oppose the toll hike, according to an Insights West poll released December 13.
The toll is set to rise from $1.50 to $3 per crossing starting in January 2014.
The online survey showed that support for raising the toll has dropped from 51% in December of 2012 to 37% this month. Opposition to the toll has risen from 45% to 56%.
Opposition is highest among residents who use the bridge once a week or more, at 72%.
This time last year, 52% said a toll increase would not affect the way they use the bridge. That has dropped to 36%.
More people say they are looking at ways to avoid the toll: 31% say they will look for new routes, up five percentage points from last year.
But 48% of drivers who use the Port Mann Bridge once a week or more say they will continue to use the bridge as usual when the toll increase takes affect.
"Some casual drivers have already chosen other routes, such as the Pattullo Bridge, in order to save some cash," says Mario Canseco, vice-president of public affairs at Insights West. "Still, practically half of heavy Port Mann Bridge users are just going to carry on when the toll goes up."

Sampdoria have set their asking price for Mauro Icardi after the player's agent rejected their offer of a new deal.
"We'll evaluate Icardi's future in June," Doria sporting director Carlo Osti told Primo Canale in an interview.
"However, his representative has turned down our attempts to extend his current agreement – one which I considered was more than dignified.
"How much will he cost? His value could be close to the €15m mark, but his value will rise if he keeps scoring like this…"
Inter are known to be in pole position for the 20-year-old Argentine who was part of the Barcelona youth set-up.
The striker has scored nine goals in 21 League games so far this season.

The shooting was one in a series of incidents in which the conduct of American troops in Iraq came under scrutiny Send us your views Four of the squad left to abduct him, Shumate said. When they returned with a prisoner, Shumate said he was "told to fire" by the squad leader. He learned later that it was Awad, whom prosecutors have described as a disabled father of 11. The eight men are also accused of planting a gun and a shovel next to the body to make him look like he was planting bombs. The shooting was one in a series of incidents in which the conduct of American troops in Iraq came under scrutiny. Other US marines based at Camp Pendleton are under investigation over a separate incident in November 2005 in which 24 civilians were killed in the Iraqi town of Haditha. Source: Agencies

Iver Johnson PT 25
I bought an Iver Johnson PT 25 (.25 caliber) at a gun show recently. It was designed by Erma Werke and looks like a little PPK. I set up some phone books and began testing it and it jammed frequently. I had purchased some ammo at the gun show called Aguila - some of that ammo wouldn't fire no matter what so I trashed that ammo. The other brands all fired fine, but jammed. Anyone have any experieces with this little pocket pistol?

I had one in .22 LR many years ago. Scared the crap out of me when I racked a round into the chamber and it slam fired on me.
Its long gone and I don't miss it at all. :barf:

"This American trip most likely won't happen said Joachim Loew assistant to national team coach Juergen Klinsmann.
The tour was originally planned for December 2005 but Klinsmann is reluctant to take his team on a distant trip during a time they would normally get off for the Bundesliga winter break especially after a season already prolonged by the Confederations Cup.
The trip would have come six months before the World Cup meaning players would get little time off in the 12 months before the competition.
German soccer federation (DFB) spokesman Harald Stenger denied a Kicker magazine report that the federation would face demands for compensation in millions for pulling out of the games.
"There have been talks with potential opponents but no contracts were signed Stenger said.
Germany is slated to travel on an Asian tour next month for games in Japan South Korea and Thailand. The tour is not popular with players.

For the first time in centuries, the 170,000 Jews who live in the Asian republics of the former Soviet Union are emerging from isolation.
Many of them have decided to make aliyah, prompted in some cases by political considerations — particularly the upsurge in militant Islamic fundamentalism in the region after the collapse of Communist rule. Others are leaving with the hope of a better economic future.
The Jewish communities of Central Asia are in a state of radical change. On a recent trip here, it was possible to catch a glimpse of these Central Asian communities as they stand at a crossroads in their history.
The region's Jewish communities are different from those found elsewhere in the former Soviet Union. In contrast to the Jewish communities in the West, they were spared the trauma of the Holocaust.
Unlike the shtetls of Western Europe, their Caucasus villages have survived, their synagogues were not burned down and their cemeteries were left untouched.
Uzbekistan, the first stop on the trip, is the largest of the six Moslem republics. With a population of 20 million people, it is the third most populous republic of the former Soviet Union.
"Here in Uzbekistan there are no Jews and gentiles, but rather Uzbeks and non-Uzbeks," said Vica Perlowitz, 19, the secretary of the Jewish Agency office in Tashkent. "The Europeans look down at the Uzbekis, and the Uzbekis look down at all others."
Most of the Jews living in the Asian Moslem republics are Ashkenazim. They migrated from the western portion of the former Soviet Union–either in the course of natural migration, or, as in many cases, out of fear of the advancing German troops during World War II.
Some 80,000 Jews live in Uzbekistan, and the majority of them are Ashkenazim who dwell here in Tashkent, the capital. Tashkent itself has 40,000 Ashkenazi Jews, as well as up to 20,000 Bukharian Jews.
The latter group, with roots far to the south and east of the Ashkenazi lands, are darker skinned and in general adhere to tradition more strongly than the more secular Ashkenazim.
The two communities barely mingle. In fact, some who are planning aliyah have said that once in Israel, they would like to live in separate communities.
Many, indeed, have already made aliyah and many more are seriously contemplating the move.
At the Tashkent airport terminal, some 200 would-be olim, including sleepy children and weary elderly, covered the benches and the floors. They were barely visible, because there was no electricity in the huge hall. For them, it was a last reminder of the aches and pains of their lives in a former Soviet republic.
"Nothing can be worse than here," said Igor Galperin, 40, a building engineer from Bishkek, in neighboring Kyrgyzstan. He has a non-Jewish wife, Rajide, and two children, Leonid, 7, and Elina, 2.
Galperin had never been a Zionist. The idea of immigrating to Israel was relatively new to him. It had been provoked by a relatively minor incident.
Three years ago, the windshield of the family car, for which they had saved for years, had been smashed by vandals. "I knew then that there was no point waiting any longer for better times," he said.
There was no concern in his voice, no fear that there would be no work, no housing, no future. "I am ready for everything," said Galperin, collecting his luggage. "I already love Israel."
Enter Simon Shavit, 44, "travel agent" for the Jewish people of Tashkent. Shavit sells only one-way tickets — to Israel. Every two weeks he fills up a plane with immigrants. If there is a slowdown in aliyah, he has not heard of it.
The direct flights of El Al from Tashkent to Tel Aviv are always full, like the Aeroflot flights from Baku, Azerbaijan, to Israel. Indeed, there is even a waiting list.
No one knows better than Shavit how difficult aliyah can be.
He underwent the same process 20 years ago, when he immigrated to Israel from Tbilisi, Georgia. He knows that it is not just the fear of the unknown that one must confront; it is also the pain of leaving a home, an environment, friends, a familiar language.
Perhaps most difficult of all are the economic considerations.
Unlike the more recently arrived Ashkenazi Jews, who tend to be apartment dwellers, Bukharian Jews live in single homes which they sell at relatively high prices prior to their departure. But once the house is sold, they are not allowed to take foreign currency out of the country, and no one wants to take out the worthless Russian rubles.
Some Jews here have paid as much as 18 percent commissions to smuggle out foreign currency.
Shavit is now negotiating with the authorities to work out a legal way for olim to take their savings with them — but so far to no avail.
The Jewish Agency enjoys a special status in the Moslem republics of the former Soviet Union. Many officials are already familiar with the word "Sochnut," the Hebrew name for the Agency. It works like magic. It opens doors.
When Shavit arrives at the airport, he receives VIP treatment.-In-six months of service, he has found the way to the heart of many rigid officials.
When he opened the offices of the Jewish Agency in January, Shavit realized that the name of the game was contacts.
He immediately organized an inauguration ceremony for the new office, to which he invited 50 Jewish businessmen, along with 50 senior officials of the republic.
Contacts are nowhere as important as here, where any impossibility can be turned into a possibility.
Seventy years of Communist rule have brought out the worst of human inefficiency in the former Soviet republics. But Shavit uses his ingenuity whenever he can to smooth the road for his fellow olim.

LOWER LAKE -- Lower Lake High School dedicated its new wrestling training facility on Wednesday, naming the mat room after former longtime Trojan coach Dan Pastor, who didn't see it coming.
Pastor, who coached the LLHS wrestling team for 21 years (1979-2000), showed up for the "grand opening," toured the new facilities that include a coaching office, team room and mat room, and then looked on as school officials took turns giving credit where credit was due.
Finally, Pastor was asked to say a few words -- after which he was asked to check out the unveiling of the name on the wall: "Coach Pastor's Mat Room."
"I had no idea," Pastor said a few minutes later. "I was totally surprised."
Work on the new wrestling facility started last summer. It was previously used for auto shop classes, which moved to a new site on campus last spring.
Pastor was the wrestling coach when a scrawny kid named Ed Fuchs came out for the team.
"He took me under his wing," said Fuchs, the current wrestling coach at LLHS. "I learned a lot from the man."
Fuchs' current team, which is sending eight members to the upcoming North Coast Section tournament, was on hand as were numerous school officials, including Konocti Unified School District (KUSD) Superintendent Donna Becnel, School Board President Bill Diener, Lower Lake High Principal Jeff Dixon, KUSD Director of Classified Services Dana H. Moore and Director of Educational Support Services Ed Zander.

A Few of My Favorite Things: SoulCycle's Julie Rice
A look at what some of our favorite friends are loving right now.
A great part of this job is meeting and working with cool and interesting people in fashion, beauty, and fitness. I always want to hear about what they're loving these days, you know being tastemakers and all! This week we talked to SoulCycleco-founder Julie Rice. SoulCycle is the spinning phenomenon sweeping New York and soon heading out west to California and hopefully more locations across the country soon. It's the most addicting fitness class I've done in years. Seriously. I wanted to see what Julie's into for her own workouts and post-spin living. Here are a few of her favorite things!
"I always wear Free City sweatshirts to and from a workout. They're super cozy!"
"While I'm working out, I wear soft vintage cotton Aviator Nation t-shirts and Nike capri running tights. Ours say SoulCycle down the leg."
"When not riding at SoulCycle, I wear Nike Air Max. They feel like bedroom slippers during a run!"
"I always use Serum Oleo Relax by Kerastase after I shower. I love what it does to my hair!"
"I've been wearing Lancôme Flash Bronzer Anti-Age and I'm loving it for summer!"
"I always work out in a SoulCycle signature skull bandana."
Let us know who else you'd like to hear from in this column!

Identification of jumps in financial price series
The paper outlines and tests, by means of Monte-Carlo simulations, a simple strategy of using existing non-parametric tests for jumps at the daily frequency to identify jumps at higher sampling frequencies. The suggested strategy allow for identification of the number of jumps and jump times during a day, as well as, the size and direction (negative or positive) of the jumps. The method is of importance in order to facilitate detailed empirical studies concerning, for example, causes for jumps in financial price series at finer levels than the daily. The Monte Carlo study reveals that the strategy works reasonably well, particular for lower jump intensities. An application of the studied strategy on the Handelsbanken stock is provided.

Manny, Diego and Sid are at it again in 'Ice Age 4: Continental Drift'. This time they battle pirates and other sea creatures when their continent is set adrift. Of course, let's not also forget Scrat who returns as the ever persistent saber-toothed squirrel chasing but never quite retaining his beloved acorns.
Writing for animation can be tough but immensely rewarding if you can manage to create lovable characters to hold onto loyal fans with. The key is to not just write a story that appeals to children, but to adults too, as more often than not, the adults will be accompanying their kids to the cinema.
Just like any other feature-length script, you will need to fill your story with challenges, twists and close calls in each act. Don't think that because it's an animation, you can get away with a placid storyline, -even Disney films have heart ache and intense obstacles, just think of 'Bambi' and 'The Lion King'.
Comic relief however is always a pre-requisite, to lighten up those edge-of-your-seat moments and to stay true to the cheerful, positive nature of the world of animation. Scrat is the perfect example, as is Dory from 'Finding Nemo' and Pumbaa from 'The Lion King'.

McGwire's Brother Writes About Steroids
I heard a report on the news while driving this morning that I've been waiting to hear for years. According to a report Jay McGwire, the bodybuilding brother of former major leaguer Mark McGwire, says he introduced Mark to performance enhancing drugs in 1994. This is noteworthy because it's a more credible source than Jose Canseco and it also disputes Canseco's claims that he and Mark had juiced as early as 1988.
I always liked Mark McGwire during his playing days despite the widely held belief that he was juicing. As many baseball fans I lost a tremendous amount of respect for him when he evaded questions by congress. "I'm not here to talk about the past." What was he thinking he was there to talk about?

So, among others these are the types in JavaScript:
Of these four values (null, true, false, undefined), three of them are reserved words (null, true and false), but the last value (undefined) is not a reserved word.... It's an identifier. More precisely, it's a property of the Global object (which is the window object if we execute inside a browser).
Why is that?
It is a problem, because being a property, you can change its initial value (which is the undefined value of course) to another value like so...
undefined = "hello world";
If we do that, we risk our code to fail...
if (someObject.property1 !== undefined) { someObject.propety1("blah");}
In the above code, we are comparing the property with the string "hello world" which is not our intention...
If we want to restore the original value of the undefined property, we have to do something like this...
var x;undefined = x;
If undefined would have been just a keyword like null, true and false, there would not be such issues... Why is it not just a keyword?What is the benefit of it being a global property?
--Šime Vidashttp://www.w3viewer.com
As a property of the global object you can't actually give it a new value from within a script running in a browser since if you assign a value to undefined in a browser it will assign the value to window.undefined and will not touch the global version.
The window object is not the same as the global object. There are only a few dozen or so properties and methods specific to the global object and to the best of my knowledge none of them can have their values in the global object changed from JavaScript running in a web page since any attempt to do so will just create a new version in the window object.
Examples of things that belong to the global object rather than the window object include:
Changing the definition of any global property would break JavaScript - changing undefined would do relatively little harm compared to redefining Number or Function
I'm just reading the ECMAScript specification here (Edition 3) and it states...
15.1 The Global object.
15.1.1 Value Properties of the Global Object
184.108.40.206 undefined
The initial value of undefined is undefined. This property has the attributes { DontEnum, DontDelete }.
Also, here...https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference/Global_Properties/undefined
It said that undefined is a property of the global object.
undefined is NOT a property of the window object unless you create such a property. If you do create such a property then it will make the actual field inaccessible in those circumstances where the one you created is referenced. The actual undefined field will still be used in creating variables where a value is not assigned.
If this were not the case then
undefined = 'hello world;var x;
would set x to 'hello world'.
I don't know why undefined is not a reserved word but suspect that there is probably some obscure situation where it makes sense to be able to override it within a particular scope (probably not global scope) and that would not be possible if it were a reserved word.
Never mind...

With a 36 year history of rivalries between the two schools, the "Classic City Championship" between Cedar Shoals and Clarke Central in "the Jungle" was much anticipated. This was the 44th meeting of the two teams in "The Jungle". Considered one of the greatest rivalries in Georgia and east of the Mississippi, the battle did not disappoint.
Located five miles from each other in Athens, Georgia, Cedar Shoals and Clarke Central share this rivalry and 'live' the game 365 days a year. "From little league, it is just a buildup for when it is going to be for real," said Milton Gresham, a linebacker for the Gladiators from 1984-1987. "On the field, you really hate these guys. After the season, you support each other."
After the first kick of the game, Clarke Central recovered a Cedar Shoals fumble and ran seven yards to score for the first touchdown. After their third touchdown in the first half, Cedar Shoals fought back and scored two touchdowns. The score entering halftime was 20-12. Clarke Central ruled the second half, however, and continued to dominate on the field. The final score was 41-12.

My Organic Dirt Patch: Cloudy and Cold with a Chance of Frozen Lettuce?
So I finally got some salad greens growing in my new organic garden. I was pretty proud of those little sprouts. The "Bright Lights" chard was looking good too. My doubting spouse still suspects it was a mistake to tear out the jasmine landscaping and plant these organic vegetables. So I dragged her out there the other day and pointed at the new growth. "See, see!" I said. "It's not going to be an ugly dirt patch much longer."
Then I heard the weather forecast. What are the odds my lettuce sprouts are going to survive a three-day hard freeze? Any suggestions from the gardening experts? Do I cover the bed with warm blankets? Water more or water less? Or do I go buy more seeds because my lettuce crop is S.O.L.?

Email Users in UAM group
I am going to write a plugin that emails users when a post is published. The plugin will check the post for the uam groups it is apart of and then use that result to find all users apart of those groups. Once an array of the valid users is created email notifications will be sent to all of them.
I was hoping I could get some help as to how I can start. I would like to save myself a few hours of debugging through the uam functions to figure out exactly how they work. Could you point me in the right direction?
On another note I believe a way to backup the changes uam has made to the database a necessary feature. My problem is that I had to modify one of the uam files so that the access box would appear on my custom post types. I believe if I were to update the plugin everything would be lost including all groups and group assignments. Is there a work around for this issue?

Jerry 12-14-2011 05:55 pm
If you are so pleased with the announcers in the 3-6 time slot. why are you constantly changing them? Also, why does you current guy complain that no one calls in responce to his offers for a prize....I think that it is time for certain people to put their grudges on the shelf them and give the listeners the person that they went at that time slot.
**** from The Surf: While we cannot and will not discuss personnel individually, we are indeed pleased with all three of our regular hosts. We will however, respond to your "grudge" comment. We don't have any grudges against anyone. Life is too short for such things. If you are referring to anyone who has been a past dj on the Surf, we hold everyone in high regard for their knowledge of Carolina Beach Music and their devotion to it. Every day we hear from many people who give us their input, and all of it is appreciated. Bill

For those of you who want to listen to The Surf on your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad...I use an app called "ooTunes Radio". I had them add The Surf to their streams a few years back and it still works with the new Surf. The only difference is that The Surf no longer streams in stereo...it's mono...just as it is on your computer.

Does anyone know who sings "(So Long) Since I Felt this way". I hear on 94.9 but don't recognize the artist. ******from the Surf: It's Russell Tompkins, Jr., who was the lead singer for the Stylistics.

Sharon and Woody 11-25-2011 09:45 pm
Whoever is in charge of the music this afternoon is doing a GREAT job! We are loving the "newer" beach music you are playing. Great listening while traveling back home from the beach. We listen to the surf online at home and on the radio while at the beach. Awesome selections today.
Sharon and Woody (faithful listeners)
Sharon Wimmer 11-23-2011 12:30 am

Mike Davis 11-21-2011 02:53 am
I really enjoy listening to your station. I hope that you can bring back the voting for the top songs. Also, please bring back the song being listed on the website. It's really hard for those who live out of the Carolinas to keep up with the top songs without these items.
Harry and Gladys from Woodbridge, VA 11-18-2011 05:20 pm
Enjoy listening from Woodbridge, VA (22 miles south of Washsington, D.C.). We love beach music. Hope to retire soon to NMB/MB, SC. Thanks for your station!!

Eddie Link 11-15-2011 05:37 am
Congratulations to Ted Bell who was once again named as the FM DJ of the year at the Carolinas Beach Music Awards this past weekend at the Alabama Theatre in North Myrtle Beach! Additionally, Ted's Top 20 Countdown show was also named the Beach Music "Program of the Year." This was a terrific awards ceremony show, but I was disappointed that 94.9 The Surf did not win FM Station of the Year. * * * * From the Surf; thank you so much for your comments. Concerning the station of the year award, the way it works.....The Surf was inducted into the "Hall of Fame" and that means it no longer competes for a yearly award. The Hall of Fame overrides yearly considerations. We are very proud of Ted and our whole crew as well.

We already pay a commission to Amazon for simply listing our products, so we think influential fashion bloggers should receive even more compensation for suggesting these solutions to their readers.
Ketchum, ID (PRWEB) May 31, 2014
Most fashion bloggers are in constant search of the perfect balance of monetizing their blog while not selling out or compromising their content. Fashion First Aid is offering a Virtual Solutionista program for select fashion bloggers who will earn a 30% or more sales commission for showing readers which products those in the know use with certain styles to look polished and put-together. It is a perfect fit where bloggers can feel good about sharing fashion and stylist secrets to their readership while also earning above average compensation for their efforts.
"We already pay a commission to Amazon for simply listing our products, so we think influential fashion bloggers should receive even more compensation for suggesting these solutions to their readers," says Fashion First Aid Founder and Chief Inventor, Kim Castellano. The program is scheduled to officially kick off on 13 June, 2014, but applications via email are currently accepted: yes(at)fashionfirstaid(dot)com.
The innovative and useful range of Fashion First Aid products ranges from items to prevent sweat stains, mend clothes, hide bra straps, prevent blisters, neutralize a variety of bodily odors, protect high heels, and a lot in-between.
Fashion First Aid (Solutions That Stick Inc.) invents and manufactures both wacky and useful personal care products that you will never see someone else wearing, unless you take off his/her clothes. Located in Ketchum, Idaho, it all began in 1999 with one product, Garment Guard: disposable underarm shields (because the founder was a broke law student who was tired of her expensive white t-shirts getting ruined by underarm taco stains.) Now, with over 45 products on the market, over 10 in the works, and a light and upbeat book entitled The Dirty Side of Fashion, the corporate mission is still to save the world from beauty and fashion disasters and help make clothes last longer. Fashion First Aid donates 1% of sales to animals in their 1% For Puppies program.

Apple iPad to face tablet competition from Amazon's hidden gem?
A top analyst has predicted that the launch of Amazon's latest tablet could see a resurgence in sales of non-iPad tablets.
The prediction made by top JP Morgan analyst Mark Moskowit sees the iPad being challenged on the market by the yet un-named Amazon product.
With Apple having led the tablet revolution with very little competition, Moskowit believes the stronghold the iPad has had could potentially slip depending on how customers receive Amazon's new product.
Moskowit states that Apple's market share is likely to be 70.9 per cent by the end of the year, with annual tablet sales recorded at 51.9million units.
'We believe Amazon's entry into the tablet market could provide a shot in the arm to the non-Apple tablet market,' explains Moskowitz in his latest report.
'As we have discussed in previous reports, entry into the tablet market by Amazon or Microsoft could make for reshaped market conditions.'
Amazon is yet to provide a first look of the retail model or confirm a release date.

House fire at Hannibal residence
Tue, 29 May 2012 14:50:22 GMT —
The cause of an early morning fire in Hannibal has been ruled accidental.
The fire broke out around 9:30 a.m. Tuesday morning at 1805 Chestnut.
Initial reports said that there was someone in the home, but the fire department search did not reveal anyone in the residence.
A neighboring house at 1803 Chestnut also caught fire because of the proximity.
At one point firefighters were fighting both fires at the same time.
The fire department says the accidental fire was electrical in nature.

DOWN some dark stairs, past cases of empty beer bottles, in the brick warren beneath the Off Off Broadway cabaret called Don't Tell Mama, a middle-aged man helps his middle-aged brother adjust the blue sequined top that complements his black sequined skirt. Fifteen minutes to showtime.
"Grab it from here," says Tommy Femia, 52, who is also wearing pantyhose, three-inch heels and a dark-brown wig that belts out Carnegie Hall, 1961. "There's just the one button."
"No zipper?" asks his brother Bobby Femia, 58, who fumbles about Tommy's back like a safecracker searching in vain for the combination. He is wearing a black golf shirt, black pants, white sneakers and a porkpie hat that grunts Philadelphia, 1976.
No zipper, says Tommy, who returns to his metamorphosis. Something burning in the cabaret's kitchen is sending smoke through the muggy basement, but Tommy is focused only on the small round mirror in his closet of a dressing room, next to a humming Frigidaire. He checks his eyeliner. Sprays his hair. Applies his red lipstick.
Watching from the tight hallway, Bobby explains that his job is to make sure nothing goes wrong. His biggest responsibility, he says, is to open the door leading to the stage so that Tommy can make a grand and seamless entrance.Continue reading the main story
"He's a nice boy," Tommy says from his dressing room.
Ten minutes to showtime. These two brothers from Brooklyn — star and one-man entourage — walk up from the basement and slip into a dimly lighted room beside the packed nightclub. Tommy begins to pace, his high heels tapping out the Morse code for nervousness on the hardwood floor.
"Watch," Bobby whispers, as his brother begins to slip away. "There's a transformation."
After some silence, Bobby calls out a heads-up — "It's 8:27" — and receives a soft O.K. in return.
Inside, dozens of people squeeze around the small tables gathered before the stage, many of them tourists and first-time visitors. But a pair of seats along the far wall are always reserved for two special guests, regulars.
The dimming of lights quiets the chatter. Showtime.
The side door swings open and is held in place by the unassuming man in a porkpie hat. His radiant brother sweeps past, giggling and waving to imaginary friends as the klieg lights turn plastic sequins into winking jewels. Tommy receives the applause and the microphone, and begins to sing.
Hey look me over, lend me an ear
Fresh out of clover, mortgaged up to here
But don't pass the plate, folks, don't pass the cup
I figure whenever you're down and out
The only way is up...
Judy. It's Judy Garland. Judy.
The Triple Bunk Bed
The three Femia brothers grew up in the Dyker Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, on the second floor of a corner building owned by a first cousin of their father's. They slept in a triple bunk bed: Bobby, the oldest, was the bottom; John, the youngest, was the middle; and Tommy was the top, always, as if determined to follow some Cole Porter credo.
Theirs was a typical Italian-American household, they say, with relatives wandering in and out, and people talking over one another during endless meals. They regaled and argued and laughed and cried and laughed again. Ann, the loving mother who could level you with a few choice words, worked as a supervising clerk for the state's Department of Insurance, while Cosmo, the dutiful father who could defuse any situation with a joke, ran his own bleach company. Together they raised these three boys.
Bobby on the bottom covered his share of the bedroom walls with posters of his favorite professional wrestlers, especially Bruno Sammartino, whose Italian heritage added to his appeal. He also displayed a photo of the Three Stooges; he was a Curly man.
After high school, Bobby ran messages on Wall Street, worked for a monument company in Queens ("You polish the tombstones, make sure everything is tidy for the funeral") and, for nine years, helped a cousin with a truck make deliveries of ricotta, mozzarella, and other Italian foods. He married, then divorced. Now he lives in Bensonhurst with Halina Flis, a Polish immigrant who works as a home attendant.
For the last 26 years, Bobby has been a security officer for the Waterfront Commission of New York Harbor. He works 56 hours a week, wearing a blue uniform and a shield that dangles from a chain around his neck. Truckers entering and leaving the container terminal in Red Hook have to check in first with Bobby.
"Nothing passes me," he says.
John in the middle, the baby, reserved his wall space for the Marx Brothers, although he also adored the Three Stooges; he was a Shemp man. He began developing an encyclopedic memory of comedy routines when he was very young, and before long he was performing dead-on imitations of Flip Wilson, Bill Cosby and Pat Cooper.
By the time he was 13, John was living in Los Angeles and appearing in "Hello, Larry," a short-lived television situation comedy with McLean Stevenson, and a few years later, he was being featured in "Square Pegs," a one-season high school sitcom that starred, among others, Sarah Jessica Parker. He was Marshall Blechtman, the class clown, who talked fast and often.
Cosmo Femia moved to California to be John's guardian, a job that Tommy took over a few months later. Ann Femia, meanwhile, guarded her youngest son's career with no-nonsense zeal, John says, making sure he would not be exploited by producers and higher-ups.
After "Square Pegs," John appeared once more on television, in a teen comedy that was broadcast as an "ABC Afternoon Special" in 1984. But as he grew older, he says, he came to be considered too ethnic — "too New York" — for most roles. So, weary of a career that had come at certain cost to his childhood, he moved back to Brooklyn in 1989, when he was 23.
After a long layoff, though, John returned to show business a dozen years ago. Now 45, he lives in Manhattan with his girlfriend, Linda Maley, and works as an actor and a stand-up comedian. He also claims to be more amused than annoyed by a YouTube video that says the actor who played Marshall in "Square Pegs" died in 1989 of complications related to AIDS (the fate of another of the show's stars, Merritt Butrick).
"I never corrected it," John says.
And, finally, in that bunk bed: Tommy on top.
Declaring Devotion, and More
As a teenager in the Brooklyn of the mid-1970s, just before the age of "Saturday Night Fever," Tommy would lie in his bunk and listen to the albums he had culled from the collection at a record store in Bensonhurst. Not the Beatles, not the Rolling Stones, but Streisand, Streisand, Streisand and, a little later, Garland — especially the classic two-disc live recording from 1961, "Judy at Carnegie Hall."
"Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart." "Almost Like Being in Love." "Puttin' on the Ritz." "Swanee." "A Foggy Day." "Over the Rainbow," over and over and over, with Tommy singing along, belting it out. "I was 9, and I hated it," his younger brother, John, recalls. "I'd scream at him to stop, which, of course, made him do it more."
If Bobby had his wrestlers and John his comedians, Tommy had his women: glossy photographs of Monroe, Harlow and Crawford adorned his share of the bedroom's wall space. He hated the posters of those hairy beasts of wrestling; give him — Garbo.
In a way, Tommy was not only declaring his devotion to Barbra and Judy and the rest. He was also announcing his homosexuality to his old-school Italian family at a time, John says, "when homosexuality was not an option in an Italian home."
The oldest brother, Bobby, knew, because he occasionally gave Tommy a ride to one of the gay bars in Greenwich Village. But the others never knew — until they did. According to Tommy, his father had no problem with his sexuality, but his mother's scorn was so unrelenting that he left home at 18 and moved in with a boyfriend in Hoboken.
Before he left, though, his father asked to speak with him. "He told me that he loved me, and he gave me some money," Tommy says. "He had never given me money before."
The hurt went both ways. "It was difficult; it was difficult," Mrs. Femia recalls. "But I did some reading. I spoke to some professional people. And I came to understand it was God's will. He was born that way."
Three months after Tommy left the family apartment in Dyker Heights, three months in which mother and middle son never spoke to each other, Mrs. Femia broke her silence. "She invited me over for dinner," Tommy says. "And it was like it never happened."
No discussion. No analysis. Just — eat.
A graduate of the High School of Performing Arts, the setting for the musical "Fame," Tommy worked for a while Off Off Broadway, taking any role that he could, no matter how wacky. He supported himself with a day job as a radio monitor for the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers, listening to recordings of programs to make sure that members got paid for their work.
Then, in the early '90s, he teamed up with Hal Simons, a high school friend who did a mean Ann Miller, for a revue called "The MGM Society" — for "Miller Garland Maniacs."
It became a hit, first at Don't Tell Mama and then at Rose's Turn, in the West Village. Within a year, being Judy had become Tommy's full-time job; soon, and with the support of his longtime partner, David Stevens, he was appearing regularly at Don't Tell Mama and juggling gigs around the country.
At first, Tommy says, "My mother was panicked: 'You're gonna typecast yourself as a drag queen!' " Now, he says, she has come to be his greatest fan and most pointed critic, never holding back in assessing his performance or his wardrobe.
"You have great legs," she tells him. "Do it up to the knees."
A Psychic Immersion
Every Friday, Bobby guards the Red Hook piers from 8 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon. He drives home to Bensonhurst, naps, eats a little something, then returns to begin a double shift — midnight to 4 p.m. — in his glass-encased security booth, where a television distracts from the long hours of nothing.
But every other week, the knowledge that his brother Tommy is performing that Saturday night fills him with joyful anticipation and a certain air of responsibility. In his mind, he is part of the show.
On these days, after working 24 of the previous 32 hours, Bobby drives home in his 1998 tan Toyota Camry — bought used — gets cleaned up, and then collects his parents in Dyker Heights. Cosmo is 83, Ann is 80, and both have some trouble moving around. But they never miss a show.
They follow the same routine every time: over the Brooklyn Bridge, north on the West Side Highway, park in a lot on West 46th Street and get something to eat, either at Don't Tell Mama or at a favored Japanese restaurant nearby. John sometimes joins them.
The parents find those seats reserved especially for them along the cabaret's wall, while Bobby heads downstairs, past the cases of empty beer bottles, to his brother's dressing room. This is where he becomes hairdresser, confidant, all-around everything. Or, as Tommy says in thanks at the close of every performance: "Mr. Robert from Bensonhurst."
"I help him zip up," Bobby says. "In case he needs anything, I'm there."
The metamorphosis begins again, as Tommy tries to strike a 50-50 balance between Garland and Femia. "I want to make her relevant, but I don't want to do a Xerox," he says. "It's not a look-who's-back-from-the-grave show. She never left."
Beyond the sequined outfits and pantyhose, the makeup and wig, this requires a kind of psychic immersion into the wounded artist who was Judy Garland: the vaudevillian childhood and early fame; the frailties and addictions; the exhaustion and self-doubt; that singular voice. And the almost supernatural ability to transform applause into the revitalizing oxygen needed to take a performance to its greatest heights.
The boy from Brooklyn, then, becomes the little girl from Grand Rapids, Minn. He becomes the overworked and tortured star who died of an accidental drug overdose in 1969, at the age of 47. He is not campy so much as he is seen-it-all weary, though ready at a finger's snap to sing the encouragement for everyone — his mother, his father, everyone — to come on, get happy.
Before that takes place, though, two brothers, one in sequins, the other in a porkpie hat, stand near that door leading to the stage. Bobby conducts one last examination of Tommy as Judy before opening the door.
"I grab his hand and he grabs my hand," Bobby says. "And I say, 'Go get 'em, kid.' "Continue reading the main story

Rami stressed that he is doing good and is not harmed in any way, and does not intend on leaving Egypt due to the chaotic conditions.
Rami stated that he considers Egypt to be his second home and feels obligated to stay in Egypt and show his support. Rami added that he hopes the crises will be over soon and the protesters will have their demands met.
On a different note, Rami is very happy about the success of his chain food restaurants in Morocco that hold the name 'Lebanon' and serve a variety of Lebanese cuisines.

Hello! Welcome to Roxbury! Glad you could make it. Pardon our appearance. We've set up a makeshift camp here for the week. I know it's not optimal conditions. But we do have deluxe Aerobeds, and we do have a small stock of Purell in each room. So I think you will find that, even as we rough it, we can still manage to do it in luxury. Anyway, would you care to join me for a quick sip of Charles Shaw?
(pours you a glass)
I tell you, you will not find a better Merlot under three dollars. Or, in your case, twenty-seven dollars for one glass. Are you comfortable standing? Perhaps we should retire to the divan. Come! Let us sit.
(sits on divan)
Do you like this divan? It's from Turkey, which I'm told is a very exotic place that is not on this continent, where they eat various stewed meats. Often, after a long night, me and the girls will retire onto the divan to share finger sandwiches and do some light fisting. Go ahead. Sit back. That's right. Just lean on your elbows. Isn't that comfy?
Do I take credit cards? No, I'm afraid not. Too much of a paper trail. Are you in need of cash? Because there is an ATM machine just fourteen blocks over. I'm happy to wait as you get it. No? You're good? Very well, then. Let us bring out the girls. SHARRAINE! GET THE GIRLS!
Juanita: Hello. I'm Juanita.
Juanita comes to us from Puerto Rico. She's a grandmother, if that sort of thing suits you. Obviously, she knows her way around breeding. I must be honest. Juanita is very businesslike. Very stern. If you cross her, she's liable to beat you with her shoe. Some sort of maternal reaction, I think. But I have to tell you, on most days, she's very good. And she talks a surprisingly filthy game. I think it's a function of Puerto Ricans living in such tight quarters. No secrets between those people. She's not afraid to ask you to pull the hairs in her asscrack.
Jasmine: Hello. I'm Jasmine.
Oooh, Jasmine! Very, very elegant woman. She demands only the best of the best. I've seen her abruptly leave the checkout line at CVS if she's made to wait too long. She's very mysterious. Always sort of looking right through you. I almost think of her as some sort of big-chested housecat. She will bite without warning. Some guys are into that. Some are not.
Black Rose: I'm Black Rose.
Mmmm! The black cherry on my mansundae. You know I found her lying in an alley? She doesn't remember a THING about her past. It's kind of thrilling. Anyway, Black Rose is a very popular girl with our regular patrons. Very innovative. One customer stuck a bicycle pump in her. I thought that was rather ribald. She can get VERY nasty. Don't be afraid to make permanent thumbprints on her body. But do be a gentlemen. 30% of her body is covered with razor burn.
So there are your choices. What do you think? Not bad, eh?
What do you mean, are there any more?
Well, I tried to go to great pains to show you my very finest ladies. I didn't skimp. I almost brought Sasha with me, but she's currently in a legal entanglement I cannot divulge. Surely, one of these fine women has caught your eye.
What do you mean, you'll take Jasmine for half the price? I'm sorry, but these prices are not negotiable. We are not an outlet store for high-class pussy. We are the Hermes flagship store.
I think I know what's really going on here. I was told this might happen by other players. It's my understanding that you New England gentlemen are unwilling to pay full price for one of my Nubian princesses. Isn't that right? "No daaaaakies," as I've heard Patriot fans call them? Isn't that what you're really telling Silky Garrard? That you are both discriminatory and thrifty with cash, as all Boston gents are?
Well, that's unfortunate. I thought we were past this as a society. I see no reason why non-white women don't deserve the same, good, hard meat stuffing as a white girl. Are we not one world? Didn't they teach you manners at Andover, or whatever fancy lily-white school you attended? I should have realized something was amiss. I take great umbrage, Sir. And, I must say, I think you are wrong. 80% of all the white women I've bedded have been about as exciting as fucking a dead halibut. But THESE women! These women have ambition! They didn't just get the penis handed to them! They had to fight for every cock they got! And believe me, they bang like it.
Still want a white girl, eh? Oh, whatever. Fine. BRING HER OUT.
Linda: I'm Linda.
This is Linda. She's a disgruntled 50-year-old housewife from Marblehead looking for some excitement. I hear she's about as fun as fucking the headboard. Be my guest.
And give me back the Charles Shaw. It's too good to share with a man of such poor taste. This goes on your bill.

As You Would Expect, Spiderman Is Pretty Good At Basketball [VIDEO]
We're not sure if it will take much convincing for you to watch Spiderman play basketball, but if you need to hear anything more than that, here it goes.
So Spidey was swinging through NYC, we assume, and happened upon some guys playing one on one. He decided to join in and show off his skills. Now obviously we would assume he's pretty good at the sport – spider agility and all – and we were right.
