my new tv obsession is boardwalk empire, which is not surprising since mad men just ended (sad face) and i needed another period drama to fill the void. set in prohibition era atlantic city, the story revolves around nucky thompson – played by the ridiculously awesome and surprisingly… dare i say attractive steve buscemi – and the various gangsters, government agents and ordinary folk whose lives are influenced by the fortunes and misfortunes of bootlegging and other illegal activities…
the characters are interesting, the acting is top notch, there's plenty of nudity and sex (something i always felt mad men kind of lacked, he he) and it is also super violent (scorsese / gansters – what do you expect?) certainly the most impressive thing for me is the set design & the effort that went into recreating atlantic city in the twenties.
the set, which features a 300ft "period-perfect rendition" of Atlantic City in the early 1920s, took three months to build includes depictions of storefronts, cars and the boardwalk itself. after filming, digital effects were used to add details like skylines, billboards, piers and beaches, whose looks were based on vintage postcards.
the costumes are also to die for – look out for the scenes in the dress shop and all the outfits the ladies wear.

In 1872, with the nitrate boom gathering speed, the Peruvian Nitrate Company founded Humberstone Saltpeter Works in the dry desert altiplano near Iquique, northern Chile. It was destined to become one of the largest factory towns of its time.
In the time when saltpeter was known as "white gold», Humberstone grew fast and became a busy community with lovely English-style buildings, plus its own movie theater and swimming pool.
This all changed in the Great Depression of 1929, when the economic fortunes of saltpeter fell and the region's plants spiraled towards bankruptcy. In 1960, Humberstone was finally abandoned and became the ghost town it is today.
Humberstone has been a Chilean National Monument since 1970, and in 2005 it was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
UNESCO highlights Humberstone's cultural richness, springing from the thousands of workers who lived on the arid desert highlands.
"They forged a distinctive communal pampinos [plains] culture," says UNESCO's website, "manifest in their rich language, creativity, solidarity, and, above all, in their pioneering struggle for social justice, which had a profound impact on social history."
What to see
Top sights include the town square and beautiful Municipal Theater, where Mexican movies were premiered and traditional Spanish zarzuelas, or operettas, were held. There is a cafeteria where you can buy souvenirs, but the best way to experience this unique place is to grab your camera and take in the history while wandering the deserted streets.
Around Humberstone
The town of Pozo Almonte is well worth a visit for its narrow streets, picturesque houses and interesting archaeological sites, including the nearby Pintado desert geoglyphs, large-scale rock designs on the landscape. Also recommended is a visit to the beautiful Quebrada Guatacondo (Guatacondo Gully) and its gigantic petroglyphs, or rock inscriptions.
How to get there
Local buses and taxis to Humberstone leave from the main market in Iquique, the largest major city near Humberstone. Iquique can be reached from Arica or Santiago via plane or long-distance bus. Car rentals are available at the airport, as are tours of the saltpeter companies and Pozo Almonte.

Everyone's favorite Polish dumpling. Toothsome, warm, soft, and smothered in caramelized onions—yep, that's the stuff! In NYC, pierogi are a brunch staple. Our Polish diners are a disappearing breed, but you can live the life in your own kitchen.
This is one of those time-consuming recipes that will change your life. If you make them once and know what to expect, the next time you make them won't be such a big deal. Because theh ingredients are so simple and unadulterated, choose good-quality, organic potatoes whose flavor packs the most punch.
- For the caramelized onions:
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 2 pounds sweet onions (Vidalia or Walla Walla), diced medium
- For the potato filling:
- 1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and sliced, cut into 3/4-inch chunks
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- For the mushroom sauerkraut filling:
- 4 tablespoons nonhydrogenated margarine (or 1/4 cup canola oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt)
- 10 ounces mushrooms, sliced (about 3 cups)
- 2 cups sauerkraut
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- For the dough:
- 1 cup warm water
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, divided, plus a little extra for sprinkling
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- For serving:
- Applesauce
- Make the Caramelized Onions
- Preheat a heavy-bottomed skillet, preferably cast iron, over low heat. Add the oil and the onions and toss the onions to coat. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, leaving a little gap for steam to escape. Stir occasionally, every 5 minutes or so. Onions should turn amber, but not burn, although a couple of darker spots are fine.
- Remove the cover and turn the heat up just a bit, to a medium setting. Stir often for 10 more minutes. Onions should become a darker amber, and some of the moisture should evaporate.
- Make the Potato Filling
- In a medium-size pot, cover potatoes in water. Place a lid on the pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for about 20 more minutes or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- Meanwhile, in a large pan, sauté the onions in oil over medium heat for about 7 minutes. Turn the heat off but continue to stir occasionally because they could still burn from the hot pan. When the potatoes are done boiling, drain them well and add them to the pan with the onions. Just mash them right in there with a potato masher; that way you are sure to get all the oil, plus you save a dish. Add the salt and pepper. Make sure potatoes are mashed well and fluffy. Set aside to cool a bit.
- Make the Mushroom Sauerkraut Filling
- You know I don't usually advise cooking with margarine, but I really love it with the mushrooms here, I think because growing up the mushrooms I ate were really buttery. Anyway, this filling is really simple. In a large skillet, melt the margarine over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté for about 7 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft.
- Before adding the sauerkraut to the pan, give it a squeeze over the sink to get out as much water as you can. It's important to do this so that your pierogi don't get all wet. You'll need to add the sauerkraut to the pan a cup at a time. Add to the pan and cook for about 10 minutes, cooking out any excess water. Season with the pepper. The filling shouldn't look dry (a small amount of water is okay), but you shouldn't be able to slosh around in it in rain boots.
- Make the Dough
- This is really the brunt of the work in this recipe. If you're like me, you have limited counter space and so rolling out dough can be a hassle. I make the dough last because the mess becomes much more manageable when you don't have to prep on the counter afterwards. It also gives your filling some time to cool. So make sure you clean up after your filling making and get someone to do the dishes for you. I find that a serene counter makes all the difference in dough making.
- Pour the water and oil into a large bowl. Add 2 cups of the flour and the salt, keeping one cup aside. Use a fork to stir the flour in, and as it starts to come together, use your hands to knead until a loose dough forms (about 3 minutes).
- Sprinkle your counter with flour, then turn the dough out onto it and knead. Add the reserved cup of flour a little bit at a time, working it into the dough, until it is very smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. If it's too sticky, you can add a little bit more fl our and knead it in, sometimes up to 1/4 cup extra. Conversely, if you get a good-feeling, smooth, elastic dough with less than the extra cup of fl our, then that's okay, too.
- Now we roll the dough out, and also bring a salted pot of water to boil—the largest pot you've got—for boiling the pierogi.
- Divide the dough in half and make sure your counter is clean and sprinkled with a dusting of flour to prevent sticking. Roll half the dough out to about 1/16 of an inch thick, which is to say, very thin but not see-through. I roll it into an 18 x 10-inch rectangle, but as long as you have the thinness going, the shape doesn't matter so much. Sprinkle the top with a light dusting of flour.
- Now we're going to make circles. I use the top of a glass that is 3 1/2 inches in diameter, but somewhere between 3 1/2 and 4 inches is perfect. Use a glass or a cookie cutter. Have ready a lightly floured plate to place the finished circles on, and go ahead and fi rmly press your glass or cookie cutter into the dough, as close together as you can. Pull together the excess dough and set aside. Place circles on the floured plate and transfer to the fridge while you repeat with the other half of the dough. Combine the excess dough and see if you can get a few more wrappers out of the deal.
If it's very hot in your kitchen there's a chance that the circles will stick together. Sprinkle them with fl our and make sure they don't get wet to prevent sticking. If they do stick, you can roll them out and try again.

Who are they?
The least we could say about these two is that they are assertive! Authoritarian and individualistic, Mia and Cheyanne aren´t particularly adaptable. They tend to impose themselves, and enjoy being the centre of attention. They have an instinct for quality and are not devoid of style and distinction (they are often influenced by the sign of Leo). Proud and conceited, they seek perfection and are cut out to be in charge. They want to be the best at everything they do, and can be self-important, as well as irritable and resentful when they don´t win. They can often feel as though they are misunderstood, however this is usually nothing more than the result of their tyrannical and self-centred behaviour, which can leave those around them quite weary. They are easy to forgive though, because they also have undeniable virtues: they are lively, independent, determined, generous, trustworthy and of impeccable integrity. In fact, we can observe two somewhat opposing tendencies: a more empathetic, sensitive and idealistic nature which manifests itself as selfless generosity (accentuated if they were born on the 9th, 18th, 27th or if they have a life Path Number of 9), and a deeply egocentric, more selfish side. These tendencies are generally intertwined and can result in some very contradictory attitudes, and they are capable of the very best as well as the very worst. As little girls, Mia and Cheyanne intend on being the centre of the universe, and if this isn´t possible through superiority at school, it is likely to find its expression in the development of a melodramatic and eccentric personality. The important thing is not to go unnoticed. They are proud as peacocks, so flattery will get you far! Which could prove to be useful, because they resent parental interference and reject authority...
What do they like?
Although they are generally active, from time to time, Mia and Cheyanne also need to escape into their inner world daydreams. Fascinated by other worlds, they love to adorn their lives with poetry, music and fantasy, and could be drawn to the irrational and the mystical. They have a taste foreign travel, especially to far-away places. Concerning matters of the heart, they are romantic, and although they would never admit it, they dream of meeting Prince Charming and living happily ever after together, like two peas in a pod. Unfortunately the reality could be a little different, because they are likely to be quite unforgiving if their chosen partner fails to live up to their high expectations.

What do they do?
Because they are so individualistic they are likely to be attracted by one of the independent professions, perhaps of an artistic, esthetic or creative nature (stylist, designer), or in connection with luxury objects (fashion, furs, jewelry or perfume...), management positions, occupations of a social nature, justice, law, medicine and healthcare, or those in connection with the public, broadcasting and the press.

Opinion: Commander in Equivocation
Editorial board member Bret Stephens on President Obama's primetime address on Syria, and America's declining role in the world.

Since its launch in 2001, the Transportation Security Agency has attracted the ire of the Internet like no other government agency. I think it's probably safe to say that everyone who types stuff into a form of some sort and presses a "Post" or "Publish" button—and this covers not just forum posters and bloggers but the whole spectrum of new media—has had something to say about the TSA at some point in their writing career. I myself indulge frequently (see this post), and as near as I can tell from the feedback I get, the audience for anti-TSA ranting grows by an order of magnitude with each new travel inconvenience that the agency imposes.
But the TSA is no longer going to take the flames lying down. The agency has decided to take the PR fight to the enemy by launching its own blog called "Evolution of Security." The blog's tag-line is "Terrorists evolve. Threats evolve. Security must stay ahead. You play a part." I personally hate the name and the tagline, since I believe that threats, terrorists, and security were all created in their present form about 10,000 years ago... though I guess it is possible that terrorists can micro-evolve while still remaining terrorists.
The blog's first post has 131 comments so far, almost all of which fall into one of two categories: TSA employees who got the internal memo about the blog launch and dropped by to post positive things, and citizens who are really mad about the liquids screening policy. My suspicion is that this post is probably indicative of the kinds of comments that we'll see on the blog from here on out—"Evolution of Security" will be a place where TSA employees hear from irate travelers about the same three or four issues, over and over and over again, no matter what the original post topic.
It's also possible that this is exactly the point of the blog; it could be a kind of Internet safety valve where the TSA's critics can go to vent. I suggest that this may be the case because the site's very short blogroll includes links to a number of sites that are extremely critical of the agency's policies. Bruce Schneier, for instance, gets a shoutout, despite the fact that he's the Internet's number one critic of the TSA's "security theater" approach to defending the skies.
I suppose it's possible that this "flypaper strategy"—i.e., we'll fight all our critics here on this blog so that we don't have to fight them elsewhere—makes more sense on the Internet than it does in the war on terror, but I'm not seeing it. Or maybe the TSA really does just want to hear what we all have to say about security, so that they can take our feedback into account... okay, I'm sorry, I can't suggest that with a straight face.
Never Forget
Let me welcome the TSA to the world of blogging by throwing a question their way and seeing if they reply. After all, you're not really a blogger if you're not mixing it up with other bloggers in the fast-paced game of snark and counter-snark. So here's my question:
My experience in airport security line conversations over the years is that everyone who takes a moment to turn three or four neurons' worth of attention to the much-hated liquids policy comes to exactly the same conclusion: if it takes, say, 20 ounces of bomb juice to blow up an airplane, then you can just send two terrorists with 10 ounces of bomb juice each on board, and they can combine their bomb juice to make a 20-ounce bomb. So why the seemingly idiotic limits on the amount of liquids in my carry-on bag? And why, if I'm in the security line with a bottle of water or a cup of coffee, can't I just drink some of it to demonstrate that it is not, in fact, bomb juice?
In an e-mail back-and-forth (via Threat Level) with Bruce Schneier, Kip Hawley, the head of the TSA and one of the agency's new bloggers, ducked this question again and again with answers that amounted to a long-winded way of saying "Just trust us; we know things that you don't about chemical bombs." But handwaving about how you can't go into specifics is a copout, because presumably bomb-making terrorist already know the specifics. So the only folks you're keeping in the dark are frustrated travelers who just want to why their common-sense take on this scenario is so wrong.
So I would like to put this same question to Mr. Hawley again, this time from one blogger to another. Precisely what is to prevent multiple bomb juice-packing terrorists from combining their individually packed bomb juices into a single bomb? Can you enlighten us?

Robert Wyatt
Robert Wyatt Radio
Robert Wyatt started out as a key player in the burgeoning English progressive rock scene of the late 1960s and early '70s. As both the drummer and the singer in the Soft Machine, he helped that group navigate through some of the smartest, mind-bending pop/art/jazz freak-outs around. He also formed the group Matching Mole, which only briefly touched upon Wyatt's talents as a vocalist, instead putting the larger slant on instrumentation. A fall from a three-story building left Wyatt paralyzed in 1973 and a year later he returned with his most powerful record to date, the lilting Rock Bottom. Instead of favoring song suites and 30-minute keyboard solos, Wyatt found his resolve in complex, quiet melodies and restrained, piano-led arrangements. His music would follow this route for the years to come as he gained respect as a songwriter and a vocalist. His songs can be just as challenging as they are childlike and he is one of the few performers whose body of work is just as compelling now as it was 30 years ago. Recent albums like Shleep and Cuckooland show that Wyatt's talent and inventiveness has yet to diminish.

"Small Craft Warnings" does little for Tennessee Williams' legacy. Originally produced in 1972, this scattered drama marshals eight lonely people into a seaside bar, then leaves them adrift, with nothing to do but argue, drink and occasionally step into a spotlight for a monologue. Some of those speeches are beautiful, but they would be better served in an evening of excerpts, not buried in a full production of a minor work.
The monologues especially aren't helped by this production. Just as in its production last year of "In the Bar of a Tokyo Hotel," White Horse Theater Company shows no sensitivity to the rhythm and texture of Williams' writing. Dignified madness becomes shrill hysteria, and subtle symbols become signal flares on the stage.
Most egregiously, near the beginning of act one, director Cyndy A. Marion lets her actors literally scream at each other for 10 minutes. After trashy beautician Leona (Linda S. Nelson) sees her hunky, dimwitted boyfriend Bill (Rod Sweitzer) getting groped under a bar table by a neurotic named Violet (Andrea Maulella), she goes on a rampage. As she bellows curses and threatens people with chairs, Violet runs shrieking into the bathroom. The men holler, too, and everyone performs with bug-eyed intensity.
It's unfathomable what Marion wants this scene to communicate. By pushing thesps to mania and keeping them there, she makes the characters insufferable gorgons, which violates Williams' obvious sympathy for their isolation.
Nelson is the worst offender, huffing and stamping and rolling her eyes. Even in Leona's quieter moments, when she remembers her gay brother's death, the thesp overenunciates every word. It's a shoddy approximation of a woman using gruffness to hide her misery.
Things improve marginally by the end, when all the characters have stepped forward to reveal their inner thoughts and made a sad kind of peace with each other. At least the production's tone fluctuates with the emotion of the plot.
Christopher Johnson appears as Quentin, an aging gay man who comes into the bar with a teenage boy (Tommy Heleringer) he's picked up for the night. When he gets his turn to speak, Quentin reveals his trick actually returned an affectionate touch, which repulsed him. "I only go for straight trade," he says, revealing that he's so ashamed of his own sexuality that he can't see it reflected in a lover.
From there, Williams pushes past self-loathing to existential boredom: Talking only to us, Quentin says he's lost the ability to be surprised by anything. Johnson's beautiful perf proves how much that hurts. Thesp barely moves during his monologue, and his stillness makes his sadness seem all-consuming. When he speaks, his tone is matter of fact, so the occasional ripple of emotion suggests just how much this lonely man has forced himself to bury. His anguish becomes an oasis of honesty in an overheated show.

In the Dark Night
Large puddles of the green toxic waste prevent you from simply running after the Killer Moth. You need to fix the elevator on the scaffold and install a metal bar from which to hang. Jump onto the bar and hop over the fence to the other side.
Free PlayThe first LEGO canister resides within the building in the beginning. You need to first yank the door clear off the sides and Sonic Suit the glass to get it. There's also a Joker generator here. Double jump up the ladder to the top and use the Sonic Suit again for yet another LEGO canister.
Follow the Killer Moth down the street, but as soon as he spots you he disappears into a building and quickly has a van block off the entrance. What to do? In the alleyway nearby, trash the dumpsters to construct a fan on the ground. Then, break the phone booth to reveal a lever behind it. Activate the lever to start the fan up and ride the breeze up to the narrow ledge on the opposite building.
Take it to an elevator that's currently not working. Break through the wooden boards into the abandoned building and ransack the place to recover pieces that turn into a crank. Have Batman stand on the elevator while Robin turns the crank. Lift Batman up to retrieve his Demolition Suit. Now take an explosive to the van parked at the entrance and blow it up!
Free PlayPast the initial puddles of toxic muck, there are some silver studs on a balcony. Double jump up to that balcony and grapple up to the top. A LEGO canister lies in wait here.
If you peer inside the next building, you will see a lone worker. Mind control him and have him pull the red lever. Find pieces to complete the door within the box that appears and yank off the door with super human strength. Smash all the objects in the building to build one of three cakes. The next one occupies the abandoned building to the right. Plant an explosive at the loose-hanging window and head inside. Tear everything up and put together the oven. Seconds later, the second cake comes out. High on the green-lit wall to the right of the second cake is a ladder you can reach by double jumping to it. On the rooftop, smash everything as usual and collect your LEGO canister for your efforts.
As you sweep through the bar furniture, you should be amass enough LEGO pieces to build a total of three things: a zipline, a grapple point and the remaining pieces to the lower blue box on the far right. When the box is finished, push the box along the checker-patterned floor and into the wall slot. Head up the grapple point and assemble the zipline up there. Cross it and set explosives near the ceiling lights. The ceiling lights provide the necessary pieces to fill in the missing tiles on the checkered floor. Push in the remaining box into the slot and pull the lever.
Free PlayA LEGO Canister floats in the back of the room in plain sight, but it is sitting within a giant aquarium! You need both Poison Ivy and the Water Suit to obtain this canister. First, grow a plant on the empty flower pots in front of the aquarium. Climb up and dive into the tank with the Water Suit.
Not to neglect the Attracto machine in this room, suck up the 25 LEGO pieces and give it a whirl in the machine. A helicopter is formed; access the tech panel next to the aquarium to take control of the copter and fly it into each of the bulbs of the ceiling lights near the bottom of the screen for the LEGO canister.
A dance floor with nobody dancing?! Typical. Jazz up the party by first removing all the furniture and planting a bomb at the big, gaudy statue on the podium. This reveals a Technology Suit changer for Robin. Assemble also the two large speakers and the disco ball in the center (you have to blow up the shiny box on the dance floor). Step on the white panels on the dance floor at the same time with your partner until the entire floor is lit.
The floor opens up and slowly lifts a cool robot out! Access the tech panel to clumsily control this bizarre creation and guide it into the colorful wall in the back. Now you can go out.
Outside the bar, everything's in chaos: innocent people getting bullied, stuff is on fire and a big pool of toxic muck sections off the important half of the area. Calm down! Smash things among the beaming lights to put together the Magnet Suit for Robin. Find the L-shaped magnetic strip along the wall next to the fire to cross to the other side of the poisonous water. Fix the pump, which proceeds to completely drain the lethal toxins, making it safe for Batman to cross.
Free PlayBefore you can even think to move the big truck out of the way, thinking there is a secret goodie behind (you are correct), you need to glue back on the missing handle pieces. Once they are found and properly attached to the truck, shove it out of the way and blow up the object to find a LEGO canister.
Blow up the shiny containers and assemble another magnetic ramp for Robin. Don't forget to grab the LEGO canister on the way to the zipline. Pull the lever to drop down a ladder for Batman. Blow up the fence and collect enough LEGO pieces to complete the water reservoir pump (hint: Batarang the lights). Step on the pump with both characters to douse the flames below. Proceed through this thug-filled area and blow the top off the manhole, just before the steps. Drop in to claim a LEGO canister.
Free PlayPast the fire and just underneath the dumpsters are a bunch of hot LEGO pieces. Equipped with the Heat Protection Suit, gather these up to build a ladder and climb the LEGO product. Leap across the gap and double jump up to a red power brick. Sweet!
The overriding goal of the Killer Moth fight is—other than to bring this sucker down—give power to the enormous light bulb in the back of the room. After punching Killer Moth a couple of times, he takes to the air and flaps around a bit. Pay him no mind and proceed to blow the left gate clear out of the way. Grab the Technology Suit and search for parts for the currently inoperative turbines.
Complete construction on the left turbine and take care of the incoming wave of henchmen before interacting with the tech panel. At the tech panel, press the action button to spin the turbine and create a spark of electricity that travels along the channel. This powers up the levers adjacent the light bulb. Once both levers are pulled, the light bulb emits a bright light that brings the Killer Moth down to ground level.
Punch him a few more times before he retreats again. Assemble the pieces on the right turbine this time, but the tech panel doesn't work! Head into the room on the right and push the large container along the checker-patterned floor until its end. Go use the tech panel now and spin the turbine. Pull both levers and meet Killer Moth on the floor. That should be the end of him.
Free PlayThe room on the back right can be accessed only after using the Sonic Suit to shatter the glass wall. Smash the objects within and assemble an object that Joker can interact with. Pick up the LEGO canister afterward.

About AMSU-A1
The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit – A1 (AMSU-A1) is one of the complement of American instruments provided by NOAA to fly on MetOp-A, -B and –C.
The AMSU-A1 measures scene radiance in the microwave spectrum. The data from this instrument is used in conjunction with the High-resolution Infrared Sounder (HIRS) instrument to calculate the global atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles from the Earth's surface to the upper stratosphere, at approximately 2-millibar pressure altitude (48 km). The data is used to provide precipitation and surface measurements including snow cover, sea-ice concentration and soil moisture.
The instrument is a cross-track scanning total-power radiometer and is divided into two separate modules:
- AMSU Module A-1 with channels 3 to 15
- AMSU Module A-2 with channels 1 and 2
Each module operates and interfaces with the spacecraft independently. Often both instrument modules are presented under the generic name of AMSU-A. AMSU-A1 and -2 were developed by Northrop Grumman (formerly Aerojet), Los Angeles, USA.
The AMSU-A instrument has an IFOV of 3.3° at the half-power points providing a nominal spatial resolution at nadir of 48 km (29.8 mi). The antenna provides a cross-track scan, scanning ± 48.3° from nadir with a total of 30 Earth fields-of-view per scan line. The instrument completes one scan every 8 seconds. The footprint (resolution at nadir) is 50 km. The swath width is approximately 2000 km.

Green group conserves victories with moderation
Editorial by the Adirondack Daily Enterprise
May 10, 2013
Willie Janeway, the new executive director of the Adirondack Council, is a pleasure to talk to and extraordinarily articulate. He can clearly explain what might, coming from another, seem contradictory: how he is both an idealist who loves sweeping conservation visions and also a realist who understands he won't get everything he wants.
But active collaboration, a positive attitude and a sharp mind can get a lot.
Even if Mr. Janeway wasn't born that way, he would've learned it through his employment experience: The Adirondack Mountain Club and Nature Conservancy are two of the more collaborative environmental groups, and at the state Department of Environmental Conservation, he was a regional director in the Catskills and Hudson Valley.
Environmental groups often are the DEC's harshest critics. The Council, in its annual "State of the Park" report, often gives DEC the lowest grade of any institution it reviews. Part of it is that the green advocates are theorizers and the DEC is all doers. Each could use more of the other's perspective.
Now the Council has hired a DEC guy to lead it. That says a lot.
He will probably serve the Council and the Adirondack Park well.
It's not just us saying so, either.
"I think being personable and friendly is an underestimated advantage in a job like the one Janeway is taking on," blogged Will Doolittle, a Glens Falls Post-Star editor who's long been a harsh critic of Adirondack environmentalists. "His appointment, and his statements following his appointment, are also signs, I think, that some environmental advocacy groups like the Adirondack Council are ready, for whatever reason, to give as well as take, to compromise as well as advocate."
We see that, too. Mr. Janeway said he doesn't want to be an activist; he'd rather work from the middle of the Park's land-use politics. He'd rather steer the Adirondack mule with carrots - vision statements, friendly conversation and much appreciation of economic concerns - than sticks.
That's unlike Protect the Adirondacks, a group whose lawsuit is blocking the only chance of economic recovery for Tupper Lake, the Park's second-largest population center. They see it as stopping a bad precedent allowing a humongous resort development. Lawyer Bob Glennon, as he set out to be one of the leaders in that suit, said he was re-entering the "Adirondack wars."
In the 1970s, '80s and '90s, it wasn't that far off to call the Park's land-use struggles "wars." Now, however, people are much more willing to listen and compromise. We're glad Mr. Janeway and the Council aren't trying to wage war on their fellow Adirondackers.
We don't always agree with the Council and don't expect to, but it's good to see the Park's biggest environmental advocacy group in the center of the conversation.
Mr. Janeway's predecessor, Brian Houseal, partnered with local and state government leaders to form the Common Ground Alliance, through which oft-feuding Adirondack parties started meeting once a year in Long Lake to take an edge off the clashing and look for, as their name suggests, common ground. They were encouraged by a big win early on, beating back an attempt by Gov. David Paterson to ease the state out of paying full local property taxes on its Adirondack land, something that was part of the deal from the Park's genesis in the 19th century. Since then, the ADK Futures project has helped get Common Ground-minded folks even more on the same page.
So why did this race to the middle take so long? Is it, as many have said, that Adirondackers would rather fight than win? Is it, as ADK Futures founders Dave Mason and Jim Herman wrote in Adirondack Life magazine, that "?ghting had turned into a small industry with full-time employees," who stood to lose their jobs if the battle waned? If so, what are Mr. Janeway and the Council doing?
In our view, a main motivator is that the "Adirondack wars" have largely turned in environmentalists' favor. Between 1988 and 1992, the Council published its 30-year agenda in a series called "2020 Vision." Now, with the target year still seven years off, that vision is largely on track. It may be premature to declare a victor in the "wars," but the Park is more natural than it's been in a century and getting more so. Consider:
Currently, 47 percent of the Park's 6 million acres is "forever wild" state Forest Preserve - up from 40 percent in the '90s - plus hundreds of thousands of acres with state easements to prevent development, plus more owned by The Nature Conservancy.
While acid rain and snow still falls, thanks to dirty Midwest power plants, the Park is recovering. Now our waters and soil have started getting less acidic, according to Council spokesman John Sheehan. It's slow and has a long way to go, but state and federal pollution restrictions have been enough to reverse the momentum.
Extirpated animals like moose, turkeys, ravens and beavers are back and doing well, and once-threatened ones like bald eagles, loons and brook trout have pulled back from the brink.
Huge resort developers have had a hard go of it. The Gleneagles project in Lake Placid was abandoned in the '90s, and the Adirondack Club and Resort in Tupper Lake is still waiting after nine years.
The Nature Conservancy has made itself quite mainstream and, through perseverance, set a model for partnership with local government, loggers, hunting clubs and snowmobilers.
Groups like the Wildlife Conservation Society have quietly and amicably done the science that can guide and strengthen policy decisions.
The Wild Center museum in Tupper Lake has spread a sense of wonder for nature far and wide.
The former head of the Open Space Institute is now commissioner of the DEC.
Environmentalists won these things not by sniping from the sidelines. Rather, that's one way their opponents marginalized themselves.
If they push harder, could they get their opponents on the run and achieve more? It depends on what they want. If they try to make this what ADK Futures calls a "Wild Park," where the people who live here must accept that wilderness always trumps economy, they would be widely hated and would probably fail. The Park has always been a balance, and the Council seems to be trying to nudge the pivot point rather than lean out from the edge.
This group is trying to be an Adirondack leader, much more difficult than being an advocate but more influential, too. Many voices are heard in the Adirondack conversation; few have earned enough trust to help steer the ship.
And where does Mr. Janeway want to steer us? Four goals:
- Clean air and water, and to stem climate change
- Large wild landscapes
- Encouraged private land stewardship
- Communities with healthy economies.
There is plenty of room to disagree within all this, but it's also no "Wild Park" vision. Basically it's the original Adirondack Park balance. It's what most people want to keep. Therefore, we wish Mr. Janeway and the Adirondack Council well.

Snapshots from Sao Paulo: 10 Great Sweets
Author's Note: Thanks to the Brazil Tourism Board and Semana Mesa, I got the chance to check out the food and drink of Sao Paolo last month. Here are a few of the highlights of my trip.
Toasty coconut, creamy, sweet chocolate, and rapadura—sweets in Sao Paulo, Brazil do an excellent job of tasting familiar and brand-new all at once. And when I found myself in town for five days with eating as my primary mission, it was a given that I would be ordering dessert. A lot of dessert.
Some of the best sweets I tried were from high-end restaurants, while others were little bites served with coffee, or offered in the city's large covered market. All of the sweets made excellent use of the best local ingredients—numerous untranslatable fruits, fresh coconut, chewy tapioca, and rich, dark caramel.
It never quite mattered just how full I found myself at the end of a meal. With these 10 great sweets, I found I couldn't help but take another bite, and another, and another.
Have you ever tried these Brazilian desserts?

Who is he?
Idan is a sensitive and emotional man, although outside appearances could lead one to suppose that the exact opposite is true. He could indeed appear cold, distant or a little severe; but this is nothing more than a facade that is designed to conceal his natural timidity. Likewise, he is cautious and wary, remaining reserved until he knows who he is dealing with. But stick around a while, because he is sensible, dependable and responsible - and always there when you need him. He has a knack for resolving material or practical problems and is often the first to offer to help; his work being a source of satisfaction to him as well as providing the opportunity to show off his talents. However, Idan is a multifaceted character, given the two antagonistic influences that co-exist within his personality. The 4 (sign of introversion and solitude) makes him appear quite serious, industrious, strict, methodical, patient, pernickety, perseverant and even obstinate at times... while the 3 (sign of extroversion and sociability) renders him more light-hearted and playful, impatient, dissipated or even disorganized, which can be quite surprising if one is only acquainted with the first personality. With the exception of if he was born on a 3rd, 12th, 21st, 30th, or has a life Path Number of 3, he will need to fully experience both of these energies, the integration of which is necessary to his well-being. He could therefore be stable, thrifty and diligent for a long time; then he will relax for a while and become much more dissolute and fun-loving. Idan seeks to constantly advance in life, and while monotony provides a certain security, novelty is also very exciting! In any case, all changes in his life will be preceded by much reflection, and any risks he takes will be calculated. Furthermore, even though he is an essentially nervous man, he possesses very impressive self-mastery. Nevertheless, the karmic 1 could mean that he has a few difficulties managing his impulses, which could lead to authoritarianism, intransigence or arrogance... however it is also possible (albeit quite rare) that he leans rather too heavily on others. As a child, he tends to be reserved and could be overly internalized and secretive - or by contrast, a right chatterbox. He is likely to be tempted to undertake a program of study, probably of a scientific nature; where he will prove himself to be sensible and disciplined. He needs plenty of encouragement because he easily feels misunderstood. Parents, cultivate his sense of humour and teach him the value of sharing with others.
What does he like?
He wants to be liked and admired, but much more for his intellect than for his looks. He enjoys communicating and exchanging ideas, especially about matters that are close to his heart such as the natural sciences, biology, animals and nature, and sometimes even politics. When it comes to romance, Idan is a faithful and dependable man with a moral code that can be rather rigid at times while he lacks imagination, even though this is a quality that he appreciates in his partner. Often quite self-centred and introverted, he has difficulty showing his affection and expressing his feelings; which is probably why, to be on the safe side, he prefers to commit himself to his work and invest in his career.
Get your free Personality test card now !!
What does he do?
Idan , often influenced by the earth signs (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn), will be attracted to more concrete occupations. He is therefore likely to turn to the scientific or technical professions, teaching (mathematics, biology or physics in the first instance), occupations in connection with the earth, animals, order, precision or the craft industry...

The Black Keys Sue Ad Agency Over Song
Blues-rock duo The Black Keys hammered New York agency Della Femina Rothschild Jeary & Partners with two separate federal lawsuits last week for using their hit song "Tighten Up" to promote a New Jersey bank during the Grammy Awards without permission.
The group is asking judges in Nashville and Manhattan, where the suits are filed, to bar the company from continuing to air the ad.
Nonesuch Records filed the suits on behalf of the band, charging the agency and Valley National Bank with poaching its song without asking or compensating the musicians.
"For at least a two-week period in February 2011 coinciding with the period leading up to and the aftermath of the 2011 Grammy Awards, the Agency and VNB knowingly created and ran a television commercial incorporating significant portions of [Tighten Up] without having sought or obtained a license from Nonesuch to do so," according to a suit filed in Tennessee, where the group recently moved.
In the commercial, bank president Gerald H. Lipkin makes a pitch with the pop hit playing in the background. Valley National and Della Femina both declined to comment because the litigation is pending.
The attorney representing the Warner Music Group label is asking the judges to award damages in proportion to the popularity of the song, which has been a runaway hit.
"Tighten Up," which combines fuzz-box guitar with soulful vocals, has sold 735,000 copies so far. The album it was on, Brothers, reached No. 1 on Billboard's rock album, alternative album, and digital album charts and debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200. This past February, just as the commercial was airing, the album won two Grammys, one for best Alternative Music Album and the other for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocals.
The label says that it sent cease-and-desist letters to the agency and the bank, but their requests were ignored.
No dollar amount was mentioned in the suits, but in court papers, the group is asking the judges to determine how much damage has been done in using its hip cred to flog a stodgy Garden State bank. Looks like someone's act could use a little tightening up.
See the official video for "Tighten Up" below.

Paul Gregg has written up an example of what he calls "tail -# file for PHP" (starting from the end of file and moving backwards a given number of lines).
Here I will demonstrate a fairly tuned method of seeking to the end of the file and stepping back to read sufficient lines to the end of the file. If insufficient lines are returned, it incrementally looks back further in the file until it either can look no further, or sufficient lines are returned.
His script meets two goals - reading enough lines in for the request and keeping those lines to a minimum. His code grabs the size of the file and opens the file as a resource to fseek to a certain point and read in the lines from the defined start to finish and push them into an array. You can see the source here and a sample execution here.

There's a growing mindfulness movement in Silicon Valley where major tech companies employ meditation in order to get ahead.
Over 1,000 Google employees have gone through the tech giant's internal course called "Search Inside Yourself," Noah Shactman of Wired reports. The class aims to teach people how to manage their emotions and stressful situations, and better understand the needs of their co-workers.
Studies have shown that meditation can rewire how the brain responds to stress. Other research suggests that meditation helps improve memory and executive functions.
Google implements a few different exercises. One, for example, has employees meditate on failure and success.
Google's internal class eventually evolved into the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Institute, where anyone can learn the Google meditation method.
In 2010, mindfulness instructor Soren Gordhamer launched the first-ever Wisdom 2.0 conference. The mindfulness event has attracted a handful of Silicon Valley elite like LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner and Twitter co-founder Evan Williams.
The mindfulness movement seems to be part of a growing trend in the success-driven, data-oriented entrepreneurial culture of tech and Silicon Valley.
People are increasingly trying to improve their health and track the well-being of their body. One technique is biohacking, where people use a variety of supplements and smart drugs to enhance brain function.
There's a particular form of neuro-feedback training where you can get the same brain state of someone who spent 20 years doing zen meditation, biohacker Dave Asprey told Business Insider earlier this year. Some people look at that has cheating, but he says it's simply a way to improve brain function and be healthier.
Still, both techniques have the same end goal of achieving a better, higher self and state of being.

HARTFORD — The event that inspired it was a tragedy like nothing the state had seen before, but the mood at the first Sandy Hook Run for the Families Saturday morning was one of celebration, triumph and hope.
A record-breaking 15,000 runners took part in the race — making it the largest inaugural run in the state. Race organizers estimated that an additional 30,000 spectators gathered along the route, which followed 3.1 miles through downtown, ending in Bushnell Park.
Teams and individual runners from all over the state came to join the race.
Pat Sniffin ran with his sister, Mary Beth Finnerty, and his daughter, Emily. Sniffin said he recently retired from the fire department in Danbury, where the run was originally set to take place before the influx of participants.
"It just gets deep into your heart, the spirit of the whole thing," he said.
When the air horn sounded, thousands of runners made their way down Main Street to the cheers of supporters lining the road. The OAKE National Children's Choir began singing "America the Beautiful" as participants passed beneath an American flag held high by a Hartford Fire Department ladder truck.
Before the start, the children's choir sang on the steps of the Old State House on Main Street, wearing green hats bearing the word "hope" and white scarves — the Sandy Hook Elementary School colors.
The opening ceremonies included words from Hartford Marathon Foundation executive director Beth Shluger, Hartford Mayor Pedro Segarra, Newtown First Selectwoman E. Patricia Llodra and Gov. Dannel Malloy, who also ran in the event.
"This is an amazing and healing experience," Malloy said.
Segarra said the day, although dedicated to a terrible event, was not about defeat.
"Love, compassion and understanding can triumph anything," he said.
Shluger presented a check for more than $420,000 — a combination of entry fees and donations — to the Sandy Hook School Support Fund administered by the United Way of Western Connecticut.
"As a runner, as a mother and as a resident of the state of Connecticut, I have never been prouder to be part of an event," Shluger said.
Llodra thanked the crowd on behalf of Newtown, surrounded by guests and officials from the community that was rocked by tragedy just three months ago.
"Our hurt is very deep, but we are now on the path of recovery," she said.
A moment of silence preceding the official start of the race, the single somber note of the day, as a solitary bell tolled 26 times for those killed in the school on Dec. 14.
"We run today to remind ourselves that sometimes putting one foot in front of the other can make all the difference," said Rev. Matthew Crebbin of the Newtown Congregational Church, in his convocation to the crowd.
Morning snow flurries gave way to sunshine as the race began around 10:30 a.m. Llodra blew kisses from the stage, and she and the other officials waved to those crossing the starting line.
Latest Community
Just over 16 minutes later, the first runners crossed the finish line. Stephen Pretak and Scott Mindel of New London were the official race winners, but those watching the final leg near the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch cheered every single participant.
"It was actually overwhelming," said Bill Hochsprung, of Middletown, after finishing the run. "I mean everyone has a connection here," he said, referring to Sandy Hook.
For Finnerty, who said she and her brother, Sniffin, are veteran runners, it was great seeing so many first-time runners involved.
"It's great that Hartford could host this," Sniffin said.

The Mill
(MAP) 810 Old West Chocolate Ave, Hershey, PA 17033
*** 2015 Preservation Award - Adaptive Reuse Winner ***
Known formerly as the Curry Feed Mill, The Mill restaurant materialized from this historic property and pays tribute to the heritage of this site by maintaining visual and structural references to its past incarnations.
The original structures, being the flour and feed mill and the grain and coal warehouses of the J. B. Curry estate at Swatara Station, were destroyed by fire on May 30, 1914—estimated losses were approximately $40,000. A two and one-half story structure was rebuilt with brick using the first story of the old limestone mill. The mill was closed in 1976 and sat virtually unused other than as a warehouse until it was purchased and renovated for adaptive reuse as a restaurant by the current Coowners, James Rafferty and Bill Delinsky .

Space Kids
I painted these astronaut kids a couple of weeks ago. Goauche and india ink on watercolor paper. I really enjoy working in this style. The ink is waterproof once it dries, but I could've painted the kids first and then applied the ink afterwards. It's all a matter of preference. Even though goauche is utilized more as an opaque medium, it behaves like watercolor when you add more water to the pigment.
I think I need to get new nibs. The one I used in these illos is several years old and is starting to fray.
I'd love to work on a children's book using this technique. *hint hint* Any takers?

Great work, Ward. Always love the space themes.ReplyDelete
Hey WardReplyDelete
Haven't checked out your blog for a looooong time. Thought I would drop you a note to say I find it entirely inspiring that you are on your own now. I think the best thing creative people can do for themselves is create their own opportunities.
If you ever need some Flash help, always feel free to drop me a line (doubt I am the first one to offer!)
Looking forward to seeing what lies
--oh ya...and killer astronauts:)

According to documents obtained by the Press & Guide under the Freedom of Information Act, Zorkot was arrested about 8:04 p.m. Sept. 8 after police were contacted by three men who saw him carrying a firearm in the north end of Hemlock Park between Schaefer and Oakman.
Zorkot was allegedly dressed in dark clothing and wearing black face paint when officers approached his 2007 Ford Explorer, which was parked in a space near the tree line in the park's west lot. The vehicle was already running, police said.
Officers approached the vehicle, which proceeded to pull out of the parking space and head northbound toward the park's entrance. Police were able to block the vehicle in before it was able to leave the park.
When approached by officers, Zorkot opened the driver's side door, but remained in the vehicle. He then asked officers why they had stopped him and said, "You guys are always harassing me."
During the confrontation, officers saw Zorkot lower his right hand toward the center console, which was out of view. According to police reports, officers feared Zorkot was reaching for a weapon and grabbed his left wrist while ordering him to exit the vehicle.
An officer at the scene observed the AK-47 in the vehicle's back seat, and alerted her fellow officers that he was armed. Zorkot was then forcibly removed from the vehicle through the driver's side door — although he initially refused to let go of the door.
When he refused to release the door, officers struck Zorkot's arm once with a plastic flashlight; however, he still refused to let go.
Officers used a Taser, which struck Zorkot between his shoulder blades. The electrical jolt caused him to fall to the ground, where he began rolling back and forth while yelling "Ali Ackbed."
When Zorkot refused to comply with officers' orders, he was stunned again and taken into custody. As police placed him into the back of a patrol vehicle, he allegedly said: "You think this is over? This is not over."
The "Ali Ackbed" is probably a misheard "Allahu akbar." Police haven't connected him directly to Hezbollah or any other terrorist group yet, but it's obvious that he's at least a sympathizer

What does unbreakable mean?
gloryfy unbreakable eyewear – unbreakable glasses "Made in Austria" out of innovative and patented special NBFX plastic. Developed, designed, produced and tested every day by a small team in the middle of the Alps, in Tyrol's Ziller Valley. gloryfy unbreakable glasses made out of NBFX (G-Flex and I-Flex) always return to their original shape even after considerable deformation (European Patent Trademark)! New technologies are tested and research results are integrated and implemented into the production of unbreakable products in the company's own lab including clean room.
gloryfy glasses are totally unbreakable and even safe with airbags. Furthermore, our glasses have the following certifications: STANAG N° 2920, ISO 12312, ANSI Z80.3 and AS/NZS 1067. The risk of injuring your eyes due to your glasses breaking in an accident is therefore ruled out as no fragments or any other parts break off even under extreme force. Besides perfect protection for eyes, the gloryfy wearer is also offered a product that contributes significantly to a carefree and easier everyday life. Expensive repairs because you sat on them or worries about broken or bent glasses/parts are therefore history as the unbreakable glasses from gloryfy unbreakable forgive everyday mishaps. "unbreakable" is not the same as "undestroyable" though. Our guarantee does not apply if the glasses are not handled properly and are wilfully destroyed!
How long is the guarantee on my glasses?
The warranty or guarantee period for gloryfy products is two years. Complaints are acknowledged and carefully checked as a result but the purchase receipt is essential for this.
Where are gloryfy unbreakable products produced?
In Austria's Ziller Valley – which is why we can proudly claim MADE IN AUSTRIA as a quality feature on our glasses. Guaranteeing the production secret and short paths between development, production and sales are crucial arguments for why gloryfy glasses are still being produced in Austria. Christoph Egger, inventor and CEO of gloryfy: "gloryfy unbreakable products are extremely complex – this requires direct contact with development. Our product's secret is in the unique processing method – this can be implemented and further developed ideally in our local laboratory." You can find out more about the extraordinary gloryfy company history here.
I have lost one of my gloryfy SPORT glasses? temples, what can I do?
The best thing is to contact our customer service at email@example.com
Where can I find out everything about the new models?
Register for our newsletter and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to be one of the first to find out about the new models and exciting news from the world of gloryfy.
What is so special about the gloryfy lenses?
gloryfy unbreakable lenses are made out of the unique unbreakable NBFX material. A unique contrast effect due to internal dyeing, protection thanks to the totally unbreakable and shatterproof material, 100% UVA/UVB protection and top optical quality (ABBE number 44) are just a few of our lenses' special qualities. You can find out more about the unbreakable lens technology here.
What kind of lenses does gloryfy unbreakable offer?
We offer a number of different lenses to cover all needs. Whether it's light or dark tinting, polarised lenses or photochromic lenses – we have the right lens for any purpose! You can find out more about our lens technology here and you can find a large selection of replacement lenses for our SPORT collection here.
The same applies to the lenses from our OPTICS collection: unbreakable technology at its best! We also offer several different coatings with our unbreakable prescription lenses:
• Premium lenses with super hard coating and anti-reflection coating
• First Class lenses with super hard coating, super anti-reflection coating and hydrophobic clean coating (water and dirt-repellent coating)
Are your lenses scratch-resistant?
gloryfy unbreakable lenses made from NBFX have a hard coating and high scratch resistance. Nevertheless, gloryfy lenses can be scratched if not handled properly. If you accidentally scratch them, it is much harder to see the scratch thanks to the lenses' internal dyeing and therefore less annoying than with standard lenses. However, the scratching of lenses is not included in the warranty conditions.
Can I read displays with your polarised lenses?
Yes, there are generally not any problems reading displays with gloryfy polarisation lenses.
Can I order a model with other lenses?
No, you can only order gloryfy glasses with the lenses that are integrated as standard on www.gloryfy.com. However, there is a large selection of replacement lenses for the SPORT collection. Thanks to the Quick Change Lens system you can change the lenses easily yourself in just a few seconds. You can find the whole collection of replacement lenses here.
Do you also produce gloryfy prescription sunglasses?
Yes, almost all the models in the SPORT (except G11) and SUN collection are available with prescription lenses! You can obtain more information about this from our specialist opticians. You can find all our current retail partners in our retailer search.
Are there gloryfy prescription glasses and can I also buy them online?
Yes, our innovative gloryfy OPTICS collection has been available since spring 2016 – the combination of unbreakable frames and unbreakable lenses is unique. You can find the whole collection here. We do not sell our prescription glasses online but benefit from our retail partners' great expertise and service. You can find nearby opticians in our retailer search!
What do the different sizes M and L mean with the SUN and OPTICS collection models?
The sizes M and L refer to the width of the frame. Size M glasses are 131 mm wide, size L glasses are 143 mm wide.
Are there also children?s glasses from gloryfy?
Yes, the all new gloryfy JUNIOR for all unbreakable kids between 6 and 12! The unbreakable NBFX frame, lenses and temples provide best protection while playing in the sun and prevent eye injuries in case of an accident. The memory effect of this featherlight material always gets back to its original form. The advantage of the mass colored lenses is that tiny scratches can't really be noticed, as the material offers the same tint on each point of the lens. Our CONTOUR lens technology provides best contrast and realistic colors even at low light. Another technical highlight is the Dynamic Flow Grip system, which provides an ideal and safe fit and perfectly adapts to each shape of the head.
What's the best way to clean my lenses?
It's best to use the gloryfy microfibre cleaning cloth, which is supplied free with every order. Lenses can also be cleaned with lukewarm water. Please note that you should not use any cleaning products, for example soap. The lenses are a very sensitive part of your glasses so please treat them with care (and lots of love!). Avoid paper tissues, damp cleaning wipes or liquids that contain alcohol or other corrosive agents as these substances can damage the lenses' scratch-resistant coating.
Who can I contact if I have technical questions about my glasses or order?

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York was given federal approval Friday to set up an online marketplace for individuals and small businesses to buy health insurance.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said New York, Kentucky and Washington, D.C., are the latest places given the go-ahead to create health exchanges and provide options geared to the uninsured under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). Six other states won approvals Monday.
Enrollment through the exchanges is supposed to begin Oct. 1 for insurance starting in January 2014.
The New York Health Benefit Exchange already has a website running with information on eligibility, federal subsidies and how the plan is unfolding.
Task forces in five regions have been working on recommendations that take into account differences in markets across the state.
In an application for a federal grant to support setting up the exchange, New York officials said they expect a million people will get insurance through the program. That would reduce the percentage of New Yorkers without health insurance to 10 percent from 16 percent.
They also said premiums are expected to drop in small group and non-group markets, customers using the exchange will get $2.6 billion annually in federal tax credits and subsidies, and the state will save $2.3 billion each year in Medicaid spending.
The application said the operating budget for the exchange from 2011 through 2015 is an estimated $428 million, with much of that going to technology costs.

Age simply a number to Rox reliever Hawkins
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Reminding Rockies right-handed relief pitcher LaTroy Hawkins that, at 41, he's the oldest pitcher on a Major League roster -- and second-oldest pitcher in any Spring Training Major League camp -- doesn't make him feel old. That's because he never feels old.
The only pitcher in Spring Training older than Hawkins is Rangers non-roster invitee Jose Contreras, at 42.
Hawkins finished last year strong with the Mets, converting 13-of-14 save opportunities from Aug. 1 to season's end. The Rockies signed him this year for $2.5 million, with a club option for 2015.
Hawkins doesn't see being 41 as a badge of honor.
"I don't care ... I feel like I'm ..." Hawkins said, before turning to fellow reliever Adam Ottavino learning he is 28. "I feel like I'm 28. I don't feel 41.
"To be 41 playing a kid's game, you can't beat it. I wouldn't trade my job for anything in the world."
Here are the five oldest pitchers in Spring Training, plus their respective birth dates:
• Jose Contreras, Rangers (non-roster), 12/6/1971
• LaTroy Hawkins, Rockies, 12/21/1972
• Bartolo Colon, Mets, 5/24/1973
• Guillermo Mota, Royals (non-roster), 7/25/1973
• R.A. Dickey, Blue Jays, 10/29/1974
Here are the five oldest position players, plus their respective birth dates:
• Jason Giambi, Indians (non-roster), 1/8/1971
• Henry Blanco, D-backs (non-roster), 8/29/1972
• Raul Ibanez, Angels, 6/2/1972
• Ichiro Suzuki, Yankees, 10/22/1973
• Jamey Carroll, Nationals (non-roster), 2/18/1974
