The Navigators: Pathfinders of the Pacific
Restored & Remastered Edition.
Over 1,000 years ago, the scattered islands of Polynesia were settled by an ancient seafaring people. Where did they come from? How did they navigate across the vast Pacific Ocean to settle one-third of Earth's surface?
To find out, anthropologist Sam Low visited the tiny coral atoll of Satawal, in Micronesia's remote Caroline Islands, to film Mau Piailug as he guides his canoe by using subtle signs in the waves, winds and stars. In his lofty canoe house he teaches the intricacies of this ancient sea science in a ceremony called "unfolding the mat" by arranging 32 lumps of coral to represent the points of his "star compass."
Thor Heyerdahl thought Polynesia was settled from South America by voyagers who drifted aboard primitive rafts like Kon Tiki, pushed along by prevailing winds and currents. But he was wrong. The Navigators follows archeologists working on the Tahitian island of Huahine, in Fiji and Hawaii as they prove that Polynesia's settlers forced their way against the winds and currents from Island Southeast Asia aboard large seaworthy double-hulled canoes. In a dramatic demonstration, Mau Piailug guides a replica of such a vessel, Hokule`a, from Hawaii to Tahiti - 2500 miles across the ocean without benefit of sextant, compass, or any other Western navigational instrument.Learn More

It is known that he became a priest, engaged in missionary work and founded many monasteries, including his principal abbey in southwestern Wales. Many stories and legends sprang up about David and his Welsh monks. Their austerity was extreme. They worked in silence without the help of animals to till the soil. Their food was limited to bread, vegetables and water.
In about the year 550, David attended a synod where his eloquence impressed his fellow monks to such a degree that he was elected primate of the region. The episcopal see was moved to Mynyw, where he had his monastery (now called St. David's). He ruled his diocese until he had reached a very old age. His last words to his monks and subjects were: "Be joyful, brothers and sisters. Keep your faith, and do the little things that you have seen and heard with me."
St. David is pictured standing on a mound with a dove on his shoulder. The legend is that once while he was preaching a dove descended to his shoulder and the earth rose to lift him high above the people so that he could be heard. Over 50 churches in South Wales were dedicated to him in pre-Reformation days.
Richard Rohr explores how to find God in the depths of silence.

Frida Kahlo is the exception, not the rule. "Strong brows need to have shape and separation," says Kristie Streicher, an eyebrow groomer at Warren-Tricomi salons in New York City and Los Angeles. "Otherwise, they'll overwhelm your face."

DIVIDE AND CONQUER: When hair verges on the dreaded unibrow territory, you need to grab the tweezers. Hold a pencil vertically from the outer edge of your nostril to your eyebrows to determine where each one should start.

MAKE THE CUT: Removing the bulk from your brows doesn't always mean pruning them. Nine times out of ten, a trim is all you need. Comb your brows straight up with a spooley brush, then trim only the longest hairs, staggering the length as you go. "Cut one hair a little longer and one a little shorter so your eyebrows don't get a crew cut," says Streicher. Follow up with a brow gel to keep hairs in place.

END WELL: "It's a sin to shorten beautiful, long eyebrows," says New York City brow groomer Joey Healy. Unless the tails of your eyebrows dip too far below where the heads begin (which can result in a dragging effect), leave the length alone. Make sure to taper the ends to a clean point for a sharp finish.

Hop Sprouts Break GroundBy · Comments
The hop sprouts have sprung. We have a later start this year. Six days ago we had 8 inches of snow, thankfully it didn't stick around long. This has been a winter from hell for us – Minnesota. It has been colder and snowier than normal. I was starting to wonder if it would ever warm up. We had our first 70 degree day in six months yesterday. Starting this Sunday, it looks like another week of high 40′s to low 50 degree temps. There is still hope for a summer here.
This is hops growing season number 6. I have had a few challenges over the years from "abnormal" weather to a boron deficiency that almost killed my Magnum hop plant (2 years in a row). Luckily, the second occurrence, I knew what it was and treated it before it damaged the bines too bad. I had found a spray with boron in it to treat the condition. I couldn't find any 20 Mule Team Borax – I have been told that is a good source of boron also.
These sprouts are few and small. Shortly there will be several dozen per hop crown and I will have to thin them out to 3 to 5 per rope. You can eat the sprouts, they are kind of like asparagus – try it, I have. You can eat the sprouts, make a calming tea from the cones or a relaxing hop pillow, a hop wreath and of course – make beer and ale! What a wonderful plant! Hops make a great cover for gazebos, arbors, privacy fence over 20 feet tall if you let them.
Eighteen to 20 feet is optimal for most varieties, but they will take what you give them. It is best to harvest them from the ground so have a plan as to how you will do that. Harvesting on a ladder is dangerous and near impossible. Either cut them down and harvest or use a pulley system like I do. I have also used hooks and eyelet screws to thread ropes from the ground to a high point on my house or garage and back towards the ground to tie off (tie cleats work good). Here is how I rig hop bines. If you are already growing hops, let me know how they are doing. Hop on!
Minnesota Hops Growing ResourcesBy · Comments
Growing hops in Minnesota works well with our climate. I have put together a few resources for folks in our state (good for many similar climates). This info should be helpful for anyone considering or currently #growinghops , if you reside in Minnesota or not. Not much else to write about in January – today we are supposed to have a blizzard. Tomorrow it is supposed to be colder than 20 below zero fahrenheit with a high temp of 12 below zero! Not much hop action at these temps.
Some hop rhizome vendors (and hop plant vendors) are already taking orders for this season. Obviously here we can't do any ground preparation this time of year but we can start planning what varieties of hops to plant. It is a good time to start planning support structures for our hop bines. Eighteen to twenty feet is an optimum height, but they will take what you give them. My pulley system only has 13 feet and 15 feet but they provide plenty of hop cones for my needs. There are many rigging systems and many creative ways to rig hop bines – Poles, sides of buildings and decks… (southern exposure is best, but east or west will work – (not northern exposure)). Get creative, my setup only cost me about $20 for pulleys, screw hooks, wooden stakes, rope and tie cleats by using the south side of my garage!
Hops Resources
I hope these resources help to get you involved and gives you ideas on growing hops for yourself or even commercially.
Nugget Hops Harvest 2013By · Comments
The Nugget hops are the last to harvest. They have always been a couple weeks behind the Cascade and Magnum harvests. I currently only have 3 hop plants, one of each variety – Cascade (aroma hop), Magnum (bittering hop) and Nugget (bittering hop). Harvesting by hand takes me between 1 to 2 hours per plant – with 3 to 5 bines per rope. By using my pulley system to lower the bines, makes it easy to pick at a comfortable standing height.
The Nugget hop cones are small this year for some reason. My guess is the heavy rains this spring and early summer leached the soil. I had top dressed the soil with compost but it was mostly washed away. I will do a better job next year amending the soil and preventing washout of compost and kelp. When I originally prepared the soil, it was fill. I dug down about a foot and a couple feet in diameter and mixed in compost, leaves, grass and black dirt with the sandy fill. I think the hop crowns or root stock have exhausted most of those nutrients.
These bines are 13 feet tall and produce about half a pound of dried hops. Optimally you would want 18 to 20 feet for maximum production per plant, but I don't have that luxury on this south side of the garage. Perhaps my next house I can build a double decker garage or better yet, set aside some land just for hops and rig them 20 feet high! We'll see.
The ladder in the picture is for cutting lateral branches that cross from the one rope to the lowering rope and wrap around it. I didn't need it for the Nugget or the Magnum hop bines, the rope seemed to slide through without much resistance. The Cascade bines needed to have the wrapped around lateral branches cut from the lowering rope. The ladder came in handy for holding beers and cigars while I was picking hop cones though.

Grapefruit drug interactions linked to 85 medications, says study
A growing number of prescription medications can have serious, sometimes deadly, side effects when mixed with grapefruit, according to a study published this week in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
Medical News Today (MNT) reports that researchers found more than 85 medications that may have some type of interaction with grapefruit, and that the number of drugs that could cause a dangerous reaction when paired with grapefruit has climbed from 17 to 43 in the past four years.
The report also suggests that health professionals and patients are often unaware of the possible side effects.
MNT explains that furanocoumarins found in grapefruit inhibit the body's CYP3A4 metabolizing enzyme from properly breaking down medications. As a result, more of the drug winds up in the bloodstream, and toxic drug levels or overdose can occur, resulting in:

Need to clean: hardwood, carpet tile, linoleum, tile and painted walls Windows and painted woodwork and doors (will all be repainted) unpainted wood hollow cabinet doors (to be painted after cleaning) inside plastic and MDF furniture / drawers laminate base counters gas, electric oven cooker, fridge bathroom fixtures Miscellaneous, ceiling fans
Congratulations on your new place! I am passionate about cleaning multipurpose as Mr. Clean. Diluted with water in a spray bottle, you can clean the counters, stove, refrigerator .. almost all the surfaces you want to spray and wipe. Dump a few in a bucket and mop with it. Approximately 1 / 4 cup (or less) of ammonia in a quart spray bottle with water will make windows and mirrors. A bottle of wood varnish should be a house full of wood and dust fans – I heard OrangeGlo Wood Cleaner is impressive. But do not forget your tools: rags, vacuum, brooms, mops. Good luck!

• Boneyard Brick — 95% recycled content (made from reclaimed glaze waste and salvaged thin brick from Metropolitan's MetroBrick)

New Yorkers! You can see Trikeenan tile in the just-reopened SoHo Starbucks at the corner of Spring & Crosby! In addition to working with Starbucks, Trikeenan also does a lot of tilework for Whole Foods — they won a Coverings Project: Green award for their work with the new Dedham, Massachusetts Whole Foods store where over 5,000 square feet of the walls are covered in Trikeenan tiles.

Very cool stuff!
I love the handcrafted quality that you just don't get in a machine-made tile.
We used Trikeenan for our backsplash tile. Pretty sweet looking - each tile is unique.
Beautiful - we got our kitchen tile from their showroom in Keene, worth the trip.

Bricabrac, on 10 December 2012 - 07:19 PM, said:
Could you explain why the plot makes more sense with them?
Couldn't disagree more with musicallover's comment. I thought the storytelling in this production was extremely patchy and a lot of it didn't make sense. Why, for instance, would the Phantom be giving private music lessons in a communal dressing room? Why would Raoul remember a rehearsal he never attended? If Raoul is able to pin the Phantom to the wall in 'Wandering Child', why not finish the job? Why does the Phantom call Christine a 'prying pandora' when it's hardly her fault he decided to unmask himself in the same room as her? What on earth is remotely grotesque or terrifying about the Phantom in 'Why So Silent'?
The original production is superior in every way. Yes, the tour cast are much stronger, but in terms of production values and intelligence, the tour is second-rate.

I'm a console gamer, don't get me wrong.. But the systems are both practically ancient - tech wise. So it's no wonder they said this game was maxing out the consoles.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: I've been using this product for a couple of years now and it works great to record videos of the road with your N8. It is also great for using the GPS software. When I'm not using GPS, I'm always recording a video, you never know when you need it.
Cons: If it gets exposed to direct sun for many hours per day, the silicon/rubber suction part will eventually break due to heating.

Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: It seems to be strong; it holds precisely my N8 clone and I can turn the phone in a wide angle; it stands firm because the windshield suction cup is very strong.
Cons: My N8 clone has a TV button, wich stays right under the holder arm, so I must put not in perfect fit; a little aside. I know this con isn't holders fault, since my phone isn't the original N8.
Other: I don't know about about the sunlight effects over the plastic, but I think is a good idea not let it at windshield forever...
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: Fits perfectly to the Nokia N8. It even uses the protruding camera for further subjection.
This stand is very easy to assemble and mount at the dashboard.
Cons: None so far. It's plastic but so are all the other GPS stands I have owned.
Other: Very good value for price. If you own a Nokia N8, this is definitely the GPS holder you want to get if you don't want to spend too much.
Involvement Level: Expert (understands the inner workings)
Pros: The N8 clicks smoothly into the support, and seems to be firmly held. The two joints make it easy to set up to your preferred position. Suction cup seems pretty firm as well.
Cons: It's ALL plastic, so I'm not so sure about durability. Can't think of anything else really.
Other: I guess this is the one to get if you need a cellphone holder for the Nokia N8. Just be careful with it because it doesn't seem to take a lot of punishment.

The Federal College Work-Study Program (FWSP) is a limited, need-based federally funded part-time employment program, which allows eligible students to earn money to help pay for education-related expenses. Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year to be considered for federal financial aid, including FWSP.
If a student has not been offered Federal College Work-Study as a part of the financial aid award, then the student: a) was not eligible, b) did not request work-study on the FAFSA and/or, c) funds were not available at the time the award was requested. Work Authorization and Payroll paperwork must be completed before students begin employment.
For the purpose of employment at the University of North Florida, and in order to be considered a student exempt from the payment of the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA), student workers must be enrolled at least half-time and regularly attend classes at UNF.Student workers participating in the Federal College Work-Study Program (FWSP) at the undergraduate or graduate level are required to be degree seeking, enrolled in a minimum of six credit hours at UNF during each term in which they participate (fall, spring, and summer) and are limited to 20 work hours per week while classes are in session.
Please note: Federal College Work-Study cannot be used to pend tuition, fees, or other charges . FWSP funds are not available to directly pay for a student's tuition, fees, housing, or meal plan charges directly. Work Study students are paid according to the UNF bi-weekly payroll schedule based on the hours earned during the pay period
Student workers, except those participating in FWSP and international students, are allowed to work up to 40 hours per week and retain FICA exemption.

Low lit warehouse feel, not a ton of staff but the one or two people who were on the floor asked if I needed any help but I was more than happy to just browse around at their huge selection. All beers in 6/4 packs can be purchased as singles and a lot of beers here were a buck or two cheaper than the whole foods down the street. This was my second time visiting here and it's my favourite place to shop in NYC. Big selection of domestics and lots of Belgian and other imports. Found a few things here that weren't available at Whole Foods either.

Worth a stop as its around the corner from whole foods bowery. A large dark warehouse type space. Everything is out on shelfs, nothing is refrigerated. Don't expect service or to talk beer, but there is a wide selection and a few items that others don't carry. A wide import selection too.
No temp controller so i would generally avoid hoppy beers here unless I knew they were fresh.
One things I really like is you can buy a single of anything that sell, so I picked up quite a few 12oz that I wanted to try.
A lot of stock, so there seems to be a few things that linger here longer that other places, found a sixpoint 3bean (which turned out to be quite tasty).

vibe: 3.25 | quality: 4 | service: 3.75 | selection: 4.75 | $$
Vibe: This isn't your typical Manhattan beer store as the back half functions as a warehouse and the front half features as a retail area. It's not uncommon to see kegs being wheeled out to the street for deliveries when you're shopping. The cashiers are located in a separate room behind a glass window and will manually add up your order.
Quality: This store has a large selection and doesn't have as much turnover as the nearby Whole Foods Bowery so sometimes you can find some aged beers without having to cellar them yourself.
Service: This is a family-run business so the staff is generally friendly. If you're there for a while, someone will usually ask you if you need any help. The only drawback about the store is that it's only open until 6 pm and closed on Sundays.
Selection: The store is a lot more organized than it was in past years and beers are mostly arranged on the shelves by country, most of which are available as singles. Just about all of the beers are stored warm, although there is a smaller cooler near the front opposite the cashiers and a small growler filler station. This store has hundreds of different beers and probably has the largest selection in New York City.
Value: Beer prices are very reasonable and slightly cheaper compared to other stores in the area such as Whole Foods and Top Hops.

A a cement floor, no lighting, warehouse. It was hot as balls which can't be good for the beer.
Q there was a lot of beer, mostly fresh stuff.
S no one spoke English, there was one bald guy thre but he was very angry looking and didn't want anything to do with the customers. Pretty much a dick.
S lots of beer, the is a good import section but the were no gems in the domestic section. Bcbs for $8 a bottle.
V pretty expensive... Even for the city

Essentially a warehouse/distribution center that also has a massive selection of bottles and cans.
Much of what has been said here is accurate. The selection is pretty incredible, from domestic craft to international macros and micros. The issue is freshness and storage conditions. The bottles are simply sitting out on shelves in a big warehouse. Definitely check your bottle dates on your IPAs and anything else you want fresh. But for your heartier styles this can be a true diamond in the rough.
I've never needed any service other than checking out, so I can't speak to that.
Overall, if you know what to look for, you can find great deals at this store, just don't go in blind.

WOW! One of the hugest craft beer selection I've seen in a long time. It's basically a warehouse of tall racks filled with beers that seems to reach up to the sky. Reasonably priced and it's where I got Black OPS at $19 each. I would advise to check dates for IPA since they don't exactly keep track of them. I found an IPA that's been on the shelf for two years after its original bottling date! Also, it's not exactly climate-controlled. No coolers, just bunch of tall racks. Nevertheless, it's a great place to hunt for hard-to-find bottles.

A gem. Lisa and Harry are great, and the selection and pricing can't be beat, plus you're invited to break apart six-packs. Good hours, and occasional tasting events on their drafts. Wide selection, especially internationally. Extremely reasonable growler prices. More of a warehouse than a store, New Beer is truly one of the best beer spots in NYC.

*Was* my go-to beer store in NYC until I got more into the hobby. Regardless, the selection here is simply unmatched anywhere in Manhattan (and arguably in NYC), and their prices are rock bottom. It's not unusual for me to peruse the shelves at Whole Foods Bowery right up the street, then walk a few blocks down to New Beer to find the same bottles selling for 10% to 20% less. And compared to the ridiculous markups at places like Bierkraft, it isn't rare to save 50%!
However, there's no climate control anywhere in the store which means their arsenal of beers are subjected to significant temperature swings on a daily basis. For this reason alone, I will never purchase an IPA from them. Even worse, their inventory doesn't seem to turn over very often, and that means finding fresh beer is tricky (if not impossible).
Case in point: Founders' 2012 batch of Breakfast Stout arrived at most NYC retailers last week. New Beer had a few 4-packs of it on the shelves over the weekend, but upon closer inspection, *every* bottle in each of their 4-packs was from the 2011 batch. No fresh FBS anywhere in the store. I purchased a single 2011 FBS to try alongside the fresh stuff; it was oxidized to hell and vastly inferior to the recent batch. Shame on you, New Beer.
HUGE selection of Scandinavian imports. Tons of Belgians, including some sours. They typically have 4-5 taps for growler fills with brews ranging in quality from decent locals (Southampton, Capt Lawrence, Kelso) to highly-coveted gems (Founders KBS), but again, who knows how their kegs are stored...
Unprompted service is below average, but when you ask questions they typically know their stuff. Seems like a family business, and I've noticed they become more helpful after chatting with me on a few visits.
I prefer Top Hops. You might pay a few bucks more here and there (though not significantly!), but everything is properly stored, the service is a million times better, and Ted supports the beer trading community.

Take a Safety Break
Another great way for employers to minimize stress in the workplace is by enhancing the overall comfort of the office. One way to do this is by scheduling an ergonomic evaluation, in which a Department specialist assesses how the workplace conditions and equipment are affecting the level of safety, comfort, and efficiency of the workers. Reducing screen glare, adding a simple footrest, or finding a taller office chair can make a world of difference. In turn, the more comfortable an employee is at work, the more productive and efficient he/she will be.
If you are an employer/leader of an organization and you are interested in the Stress Management Training Program, visit the Department's website to fill out the Speakers Bureau Request Form or call 573-751-3574. Visit the Speaker's Bureau page to see a complete list of the training opportunities offered. For a free ergonomic evaluation or safety review, fill out a "Request for Safety Services" to have our specialists visit your office.

That's the Local Restaurant Week (LRW) slogan and it's my mantra too. LRW is a bi-annual event celebrating its ninth run as one of our region's most popular food events. Every spring and fall, local, independent eateries throughout Erie and Niagara counties offer hungry diners a chance to enjoy all types of cuisine made by the locals, not national cookie-cutter chain restaurants.

|LRW Filet of Sirloin Au Poivre and Shrimp Scampi
• Of the 200 participating places, 22 new first time LRW restaurants are on board
• More than 60 restaurants are offering lunch dining features, nearly all of them 2 for $20.13
• The local food service industry is the region's second largest employer.
• The local economic impact for LRW each year is more than $8 million
"This is the 9th time we have run LRW. We feel very fortunate that the promotion has been embraced by Western New Yorkers and that is has become such a highly anticipated event," said Christa Hobart, event organizer. "Many people go out several times a week, trying a different place every day. We have so many incredible local independent restaurants right here in our own neighborhoods, so many of which are synonymous with Buffalo. You mention Buffalo and the conversation quickly turns to food and treasured iconic restaurants like Chef's, Ilio Di'Paolo's and Schwabl's," added Hobart.

Comments On Mar 25, 2014:Seems to help with chain life. Wish some instruction were included. Seems self explanatory, but when you use it not clear what to line up exactly to the tool. Have to "eye ball" the reference points. Maybe I am just too exacting and need to give it a break. I wish it was a little more concrete in how it works. I think it helps me to be more exact then using a micrometer to measure the difference between sides of axle blocks. I also feel I can repeat the alignment to a greater degree of accuracy.

Comments On Feb 26, 2014:Buy it...no kidding...don't think about it. I purchased one and found that my wheel was misaligned by a decent amount. I am OCD and spend a lot of time making sure things are perfect. Without this tool, you are just guessing. It is the easiest way to align your rear time...it is stupidly simple.

Comments On Jun 13, 2013:I was skeptical when a friend was showing me his Motion Pro Chain Alignment Tool, until I tried it. One of my bikes is a 2001 CR250R and the marks on the blocks and swingarm can be hard to distinguish from random scratches and nicks, this tool allows me to adjust the chain easier and faster than I ever could before, probably way more accurate too.

Comments On Feb 22, 2013:I have two rear wheels on my dirtbike that have different size sprockets for different terrain. So every time I switched tires I have to adjust the axle bolts which makes me have to realign the chain each time too. I used to measure each side about 5 times before I'd get it just right and it was a pain. Now I just slap this on, get the right chain slack, look at the tool, make a small adjustment and I'm good to go. Definitely worth the frustration it saves me!

Comments On Dec 04, 2012:this part may seem trivial, but it really works and will probably save you sprockets and chain in the long run

Comments On Mar 07, 2012:im always messing with my rear hub alignment... i always thought i could set it straight no problem... when i used my friends for the fun of it i was surprised on how offset it would be. i really recommend people to buy this if there always adjusting the rear hub

Comments On Dec 23, 2011:I only use it when I buy new axle blocks. Just to make sure the axle blocks lines work with the swingarm.

Comments On Apr 25, 2011:This tool works great for making sure that your chain line is correct and takes the guess work out adjusting each side and then looking and or measuring etc. The only thing I had a small problem with id that the plastic bolt that is supped to mount up against the rear sprocket wasn't long enough to get the tool snug against the sprocket. I am using a new Renthal rear sprocket. I managed to make it work with a thin piece cardboard and it worked fine! I will get a longer machine bolt and it will be primo! Great tool though! Works for me with a just a little minor adjusting! :) Glad i bought it!

'Today we celebrate the life and contributions of Bob Hattoy: environmentalist, activist, and friend. We also pay tribute to the many who loved him, and grieve his loss.
'As an environmentalist, Bob considered courage and creativity and courage to be renewable resources. A committed progressive, he built bipartisan coalitions, working across the aisle to bring people together to protect our natural resources.
'We Californians, for whom the environment is an ethic, are so proud of the national work Bob did with the Sierra Club, with the Clinton-Gore administration, and with the California Fish and Game Department to protect our precious national resources. Today, Californians and visitors who look out at our beautiful coastline have Bob to thank for his years of work to help save our coast from offshore oil drilling.
'For the environment, Bob was a force for nature. As an activist, he was a force of nature.
'Intensely patriotic, Bob believed that our country's greatness was reflected in the inclusion of all people in the American family; in human rights and health care, particularly AIDS; and in the dignity and respect with which we treat each other.
'Bob's courage and creativity were manifest in the work he did for people with AIDS. Before he became sick, Bob was active in promoting HIV/AIDS awareness and resources for gay and lesbian people who were facing severe discrimination and being denied lifesaving treatments. Bob understood that battling AIDS meant battling a disease as well as battling discrimination. And when he personally became part of that struggle, Bob made a life-changing decision: rather than retreat, he stepped forward, shining a light on his situation and challenging the conscience of the country.
'With his historic address to the 1992 Democratic National Convention and his work with the White House Office on AIDS, Bob was a public face of equality: serving as a gay man with AIDS at the leadership table at the highest levels of politics and government; helping shape a public health response to this national tragedy.
'I worked with him from the House Appropriations Committee to create a national and bipartisan response to the crisis of AIDS. Bob was always a voice for resources, and a voice for dignity.
'I am proud to have called Bob my dear friend for many years. Since we lost Bob, many of us here have been sharing years of stories, anecdotes and witticisms. Bob's insights were often off-color, yet always on the mark. Bob loved people and had a gift for using humor to face the most serious of life's challenges with a light heart.
'When I saw Bob just over 100 days ago at the beginning of the new Congress, he was, as usual, witty and hopeful. We reflected briefly - and humorously - on some of the political events of the past 20 years, and Bob expressed great hopes for the new Congress, and for the challenges we were preparing to address.
'Although he lived with AIDS for more than 15 years, AIDS took Bob from us too soon. Today, as we grieve, we recognize Bob Pellham, Bob's longtime partner, as well as his brother Stephen and his sister Debbie, who all feel his loss acutely.
'As we go forward, we recommit ourselves to finding a cure, to providing treatment with dignity, and to bringing

TUPPER LAKE - At 90 degrees, it was a good day to be in the dunking booth at Tupperpalooza Saturday in the Municipal Park.
The chance to send some lucky volunteer tumbling into the water was one of the many attractions at the debut of this fair-like event. There were inflatable obstacle courses, carnival games for kids, food booths and face painting. There were also a few special highlights: a Cardboard Boat Regatta, floatplane rides, an Army helicopter and the 10th Mountain Division Army Band, the latter two of which traveled from Fort Drum for the occasion.
Hundreds of people were there at any given time.

After a concert that ranged from rock to polka to the kind of patriotic music you might expect from a military ensemble, 30 or so camouflage-wearing members of the Army band lined up for dinner from a food booth. Sgt. Frank Cole said Tupperpalooza was a chance to get a sense of this Adirondack village.
"These community events are great," Cole said. "They're a lot of fun. You get out and meet all different types of people, and get out and see the North Country. We're from all over the country, the United States. I'm from New Jersey, we have people from California, Texas, the commander's from Wisconsin - all over the place."
Many of those in attendance were Tupper Lakers, like 8-year-old Alexis Callaghan. She and her 4-year-old brother Bauer arrived by boat on Raquette Pond, went on the inflatable Boot Camp obstacle course and the bungee run, got temporary airbrush tattoos and even went up in a floatplane. Flying wasn't her favorite part of the day, though.
"I got sick," she said. "My brother was screaming and saying, 'Woo-woo-woo-woo!' He loved it. I didn't. I'm just not a fan of it."
Lee Wells said the Cardboard Boat Regatta was amusing, and well attended.
"They had some creative boats," he said. "They had a sea monster. They had a pirate ship. Beard (Trail's End tavern owner Mark Sutliffe) had a Viking ship."
Some of them proved more seaworthy than others.
"Some of the boats didn't make it 10 feet," Wells said.
Trevor Short grew up in Tupper Lake, and he and wife Casey stopped by Tupperpalooza while visiting from Leominster, Mass., where they live now.
"We're here for three or four days and just came down to support the local stuff that's going on," Trevor said. "It's fun. I got myself a T-shirt; we're gonna maybe throw at the dunk tank, grab something to eat, possibly a seaplane ride.
"It's good to see all my local high school buddies, families and stuff, people I know."
The Tupper Lake Chamber of Commerce was the main organizing force behind Tupperpalooza, especially its events coordinator, Faith Bedore. Family Champions and the Kiwanis, Rotary and Lions clubs also helped. Sometime this week they will dissect the first-year event and look at what to keep and what to change, but Bedore wasn't ready to do that late Saturday afternoon.
"The event's still going on now, so I'm still saying it's 100-percent perfect," she said. "Until you see the whole picture, you're just on go mode and making it happen.
"For the first annual, I would say it's a success, and to watch for Tupperpalooza 2013."
August is a good time for an event like this, Bedore said. Tupper Lake's other summer events are in June and July, and even though people are still in summer mode, at this point "there's not a lot going on.
"You don't want to hit too close to September because there's school; they're shopping on the weekends, or getting the kids ready for that," she said. "The beginning and mid August are the perfect time for something like this."

Recipe of the Week From the Secret Ingredient
Monday, March 28, 2011
Blood oranges are most commonly found in the warmer climates of Sicily and southern Spain, and are considered a delicacy. In season from late February through March, they look very much like regular oranges but are slightly smaller and sometimes have a reddish hue on the skin. They can be a little ruddy looking, but don't judge this orange by its cover. When cut in half, the ruby-red (or 'blood red') interior is a sight to behold...but just wait until you take a bite! They are sweet as sugar and juicy as they come.
These two recipes from Tracy Holleran of The Secret Ingredient Cooking School in Fairfield (www.TheSecretIngredientOnline.com), highlight this fabulous fruit in the height of the season.
Blood Orange Martinis
Makes 2 drinks
4 oz freshly squeezed blood orange juice, strained of pulp and seeds
4 oz citron vodka
2 oz Triple Sec
Place all ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice, shake, and pour into 2 martini glasses. Garnish with a twist of blood orange.
Sicilian Blood Orange Spinach Salad
Serves 4-6
1 - 6 oz bag baby spinach leaves
1 blood orange, supremed (to see a video of how to supreme, click here)
6 dried figs, sliced
1/4 cup roasted almonds, roughly chopped
1/4 cup of your favorite balsamic vinaigrette
Toss all the ingredients in a large bowl and enjoy!

Nine-Day Brute
We've liked the AEV Brute conversions ever since we saw the kit at SEMA in '06. But since then, the only Brutes we ever see are built up by companies to be used as calling cards. We've not seen many personal Brute builds. It's a Jeep truck; use it like a truck, or like a Jeep, or both-don't use it like a billboard.
Well, it turns out that Adam Shoemaker of Fenton, Michigan, saw the Brute conversion kit at the same show we did. He ordered a kit, but it wasn't until just nine days before he was due to go to Moab, Utah, for Easter Jeep Safari that the build got started.
For our part, we are happy to see a Brute that is used on-road, off-road, and as a truck occasionally, too.
Chassis And Driveline
By the time you read this, the 4.0 I-6 that we saw in the truck with the JBL header and Flowmaster muffler will likely have been evicted. Adam told us that he actually had a Hemi bolted in, but just didn't have the time to make it run before heading to Utah. As we were talking to him, though, he was considering ditching the Hemi idea, and going with something in the diesel category. Either way, where Adam lives in Michigan there aren't any emissions tests, so he's in the clear.
An NSG370 and 241OR from an '05 Rubicon were swapped in using an Advance Adapters CPS relocation kit to move the crank sensor to the front of the motor and trick the fuel injection into running. Power is transferred out to the axles through custom driveshafts using only 1350-series parts made by Joint Clutch.
The front Dana 60 axle came from a '97 Ford F-350 and was stuffed with Solid axleshafts, 5.13 gears, and an ARB Air Locker. The rear Teraflex CRD-60 was likewise filled with 5.13s and an ARB. Front and rear brakes are Solid Axle conversion parts while an '00 Dodge master cylinder provides the front and rear discs with fluid.
The stock TJ coil and shock arrangement was tossed in favor of FOA coilover shocks all around, used with a modified Teraflex long arm lift kit and a Daystar 1-inch body lift to clear the 39-inch Pit Bull Rocker tires mounted on Walker Evans rims.
A full hydro PSC steering system shoves those tires anywhere Adam wants. Adam tells us it took a little bit to get used to the full hydro setup, but he is glad he went with it.
A Currie Enterprises front stubby bumper houses a Warn 9000i winch while the AEV tubular rear bumper was modified so the underbed-mounted Warn M8000 could be used when rear pulls were needed.
Of course, to make a TJ into a Brute, you've got to cut the frame in half, and add in extensions. All the frame and bodywork was done by Unlimited Offroad Centers in Fenton, Michigan.
Body And Interior
Obviously there was a lot of bodywork done in the closeout of the cab. That was all done using pieces from the AEV kit and was shot Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Burnt Orange. The nose of the truck got the AEV highline fender and hood kit and the rear flares are stock AEV Brute flares made to work with the highline front end.
Inside, the same Rubicon that gave up its transmission and transfer case also gave up its seats, dashboard, center console, and rollcage. The 'cage was modified by cutting off the rear legs to work with the half-hard top. By putting all-stock Jeep components back inside, you really feel like this is the Jeep truck that Jeep should have made from '97-'06. It just seems like a factory Jeep, if Jeep made trucks based off the TJ.
Good, Bad & What's It For
The front axle is bulletproof, and while we can't say we really would trust a full hydro setup like this on the street, Adam tells us he rarely takes this Jeep out on the highway and most of its street use is around town.
The use of largely off-the-shelf parts in the suspension makes for easy replacement when needed. And with just enough modifications to make it all work really well together, you can just color us green. Adam says that he was thinking of playing with spring rates a little bit, and of course he wasn't too happy with the engine.

Why I Featured It
I like the Brute conversion. It has the best of both the Jeep it is based on and the pickup truck that it is made to be. But over the last couple of years, it seems all the conversions I've seen are done by companies so that others in the industry can see them. They aren't wheeled hard, aren't used as a truck, and are largely show queens. Yeah, this one was pretty, but Adam wheeled it like it needed to be, and I'm just glad I caught up to him early on in this truck's life so I could still shoot it before it got its battle scars as almost all Jeeps wheeled like this do. -Pete Trasborg
