Happy Days Are Here Again!
For millions upon millions of people, today seems like a new start. A new revolution. A time for change and that time is now!
Like many Americans, Cynthia and I stayed home this morning to bear witness to history. What a glorious event we have witnessed in the inauguration of our 44th president, Barack H. Obama.
I commented to Cynthia that this is OUR J.F.K.! I am 36 years old and my first election I partook in was the election of William J. Clinton in 1992. I remember with great detail that election process and the fervor that surrounded the resounding denouncement of 12 years of Republican ruling and the ushering in of a fresh new face. But compared with this A.M.s pomp and circumstance, I would say 1993 was about 1/10 that of 2009! What a truly great and special day this is for all of us as Americans. The past 8 years have been a testament to how America is an Imperialistic entity bent on wreaking havoc with the world politico machine.
I think today is very significant, not only for Americans, but for the world! Mr. Obama did not promise us fortune and fame or prosperity. He laid it out for us and told the truth and then promised he would do his best to see us through it. But he also did not say it was just up to him. He said we all have a choice and a responsibility to make this nation GREAT again, not only for us, but for the WORLD. And I love the statement he said about the terrorists who continue to destroy - and that their legacy should be that of building and not tearing down!
Today is a day we can all believe in change. I put out our flag in front of my home. I am very patriotic, but today is even more so a great day to be an American!
Here now, is the entire text of the Inaugural speech:

Here now, is the entire text of the Inaugural speech:
My fellow citizens,
I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.
Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.
So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.
That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.
These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.
Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.
On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.
On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.
We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted - for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things - some celebrated but more often men and women obscure in their labor, who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.
For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.
For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.
For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.
Time and again these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.
This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.
For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act - not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. All this we will do.
Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions - who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.
What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them - that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works — whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account - to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day - because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.
Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control - and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our Gross Domestic Product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on the ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart - not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.
As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman, and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and we are ready to lead once more.
Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.
We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort - even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus - and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.
To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West — know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.
To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.
As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment - a moment that will define a generation - it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.
For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter's courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent's willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.
Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends - honesty and hard work, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism - these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility - a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation, and the world, duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.
This is the price and the promise of citizenship.
This is the source of our confidence - the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.
This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed — why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent mall, and why a man whose father less than sixty years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.
So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:
"Let it be told to the future world...that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive ... that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it]."
America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.
Thank you. God bless you. And God bless the United States of America.

Hollywood Medium
Episode 10
Welcome back to Hollywood Medium. This week Tyler will be meeting with four people which usually means not much happens, but let's not be skeptics just yet. Maybe lots of things happen. (They don't.) First up is Becky G who Tyler has no clue who she is and neither do I. She's a singer and an actress and is the yellow Power Ranger – so if Tyler had been six years-old he definitely would have recognized her. Becky is ready to vibe out with Tyler.
A woman comes through who feels like she's lived a long life. It's Becky's great-grandmother, Guadalupe. Hi GG! Becky says being at GG's was like being at the YMCA — all the kids were dumped there. GG is at peace and living through Becky. Tyler asks for a non-fabric object he's supposed to hold and continue his doodling. Becky hands over a frame, face down.
Tyler mumbles the word Tinkerbell and Becky G breaks down and cries. Growing up her room was decorated with Tinkerbell, but unfortunately, her family went through some difficult times and lost that house. And when Becky was three, her beloved cousin Sessy who was the same age passed away. Becky has always felt Sessy is her guardian angel dragon fly. Becky says this reading was everything she could have wanted and more. No word if being a Power Ranger ruins her career.
Next up is hair extraordinaire, Tabitha Coffee, whom Tyler recognizes immediately. Of course it helps he's meeting her at a hair salon. Who's hair salon? Remember that mess of housewife from Beverly Hill's, Eden Sassoon? But don't worry, Eden isn't hanging out in back waiting to give an uncomfortably long hug to Tyler. Right away, Tyler hones in on Tabitha's mom's side of the family with a V name, but it may be a place. It is! Tabitha's family is from Victoria, Australia. Wow. I am blown away. I mean who could have looked that up guessed!
Tyler is being shown a monkey. That's right, a monkey. Could it reference Tabitha's zoo-like life? Turns out, growing up, Tabitha's mother's friend had a pet monkey who she sometime put down her shirt. O-kay. Moving on, Tyler is now seeing a Catholic school and the nunnery. Tabitha says she gets it, but doesn't elaborate. Thank you, Tabitha! Tyler says Tabitha's mom is as ornery in the afterlife as she was during her real life. Guess the kookaburra doesn't fall far from the tree.
But Tabitha's mom is thanking her for seeing it to the end and says she should have passed away 24 hours earlier but hung on for one more day. Why? Tabitha is tearing up. She explains that her mother Norma died from colon cancer and when she got sick, Tabitha took care of her, but was out of town when she took a turn for the worse. Tabitha came home and was with her mum during her last 24 hours.
Tyler mentions "the dangly thing" and I'm like, how rude. Tabitha only acts like a man. Turns out it's the rosary beads Tabitha always carries with some of her mum's ashes wherever she goes. Tabitha is gob smacked that her mother came through from heaven. It's who she wanted most to connect with and feels this experience has been cathartic. Will she be a nicer person to hair stylists needing help? Hell no!
Next Tyler is meeting with Mischa Barton. Remember her? She used to be on The OC like a million years ago. No telling what she's doing now, but here's what she shouldn't be doing – phone sex operator. Her voice sounds like a man who smokes ten packs a day. Mischa has never had a reading, but is looking forward to how this will go down.
The first connection from the other side is a woman who lived a relatively long life but had a buildup of fluid in the lungs. This is Mischa's grandmother whom she never met but died of emphysema. Tyler asks what the 21st means? It's the day her mother was born, they weren't sure, because it was the middle of the night. Next, a reference to a person with the middle name of Ann. Get this, Mischa's middle name is Ann. And you'll never believe this, but my middle name is Ann, too. Hand to God. This means something, right?
A tragic passing is coming through to Tyler who had questions surrounding his passing. This male also had mental issues and was alone during his death. The thing is, if he hadn't been alone, Tyler says perhaps his death wouldn't have occurred. Ouch! That's hard to hear. Mischa says her uncle was placed in a mental home and they don't know if he committed suicide or not. Yep. He did, but the good news is he's not mad, so that's cool. He now has a sense of peace he never had before.
Tyler explains that he is seeing something written over and over and over again. Mischa explains she feels connected to this uncle because she thinks things over and over and over again. Mischa feels validated by this reading and thinks her time with Tyler was amazing. No word if Mischa thinks she's crazy, too.
Our last stop is with Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte. Tyler doesn't recognize the face but he recognizes the controversy name. Ryan is not a believer but his fiancé is and the only reason
fame whore Tyler is doing this. She's hiding in the back room. Tyler says there will be an opportunity for a book, but he sees Ryan's significant other writing it because, let's face it, Ryan can't even read. Tyler says she will write multiple books and one will have a relationship tie-in. Ryan is blown away. He says his fiancé is always talking about writing a book. Wow. Maybe she'll shut up and do it now.
A male family member is coming through on his mom's side of the family who was the glue. He's referencing three women. Ryan says it's his Grandpa the three women are his mom and her two sisters. Ryan's grandfather doesn't feel like he had a chance to say everything he wanted to and says there was a lack of closure with Ryan's mom, but he wants her to move on. So far Ryan's reply to most things is, "Oh, wow." and he speaks in a disjointed cadence as if English isn't his first language.
Ryan's grandfather is referencing coaching and two medals. Tyler tells Ryan in one instance his grandfather was with him during a big race. Tyler asks if this makes sense and Ryan says, "Oh wow." Ryan explains he was swimming during this one race, and like he prayed to his Grandfather for like an edge, and boom, during the last five meters Ryan got a burst of energy and won the world record. Thanks Grandpa! But, where were you during that bathroom property destruction thing in Rio? Tyler says the biggest takeaway was the impact his grandfather had and is still with him. Ryan was unable to say goodbye when Grandpa passed, but feels like, "Wow" now.
Tune in next week when Tyler reads more B-listers he has no idea who they are.

New Jersey voters really don't want Gov. Chris Christie to be Donald Trump's Republican running mate, according to a Quinnipiac poll. And it isn't because NJ citizens want the governor to stick around and keep doing a great job fixing up New Jersey either.
72 percent of those polled said Trump shouldn't pick Christie as his running mate. Seems they believe he'd be about as good a vice-president as he has been a governor, at least according to the poll that also showed voters giving Christie "abysmal job-approval numbers." NJ voters disapprove of the job Christie's doing 64-29 percent. Trump doesn't need a traditional vice presidential candidate anyway, to do his dirty work and name-calling — something Christie is skilled in. Trump is a self-starter in that category.

See on Scoop.it – Science Communication from mdashf
New report finds overall cancer and cancer death rates are declining among Americans, but more needs to be done to curb HPV, cancer.
The "Annual Report to the Nation on the Status of Cancer" is a joint project from researchers at the government's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Cancer Institute, in addition to the American Cancer Society and North American Association of Central Cancer Registries. It was published Jan. 7 online in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Fewer Americans have been dying of cancer since about 1990, and the new report found cancer death rates continued to drop from 2000 to 2009, by about 1.8 percent per year among men and 1.4 percent per year among women over that time period.
Men were less likely to die from 10 of the 17 most common types of cancers, including lung, prostate, colon, stomach cancers and leukemia, while cancer death rates for women fell for 15 of the 18 most common types of cancers, including cancers of the breast, cervix, ovary, bladder and lung.
The researchers said these declines in cancer death rates may be because of reductions in risk factors like smoking and improvements in early detection and treatments.
Cancer death rates among children 14 and under also fell overall by 1.8 percent.

SHORT DESCRIPTION: This route goes through the farmlands in the Dry River area, historically used for time trialing by local cyclists. This is an easy ride, and as the cows you pass will tell you, this is as flat as it gets around here.
START: Wildwood Park, 622 W. Bank St., Bridgewater, VA 22812
PARKING: There is public parking at Wildwood Park, however, depending on the season, and day of the week, parking may be limited.
DIFFICULTY/CHALLENGES: This is a beginner level ride. Bicycle traffic on these roads is very common based on the Mennonite presence. VA 257 (mile 2.6 & mile 13.7) is a major county road which can be busy. SR 613 (mile 8.3) can also have higher traffic volumes, otherwise, traffic is fairly light on this route.
DIRECTION: This is an out-and-back, lollipop, route. The lollipop at the top is ridden in a clockwise direction.
FACILITIES ON ROUTE: Route starts in Bridgewater where there are multiple opportunities for food and rest rooms; most are located on Rt 42/Main Street. There are restrooms at Wildwood park but they are closed during cold months. Also, there is a small store in Lilly just off the route.

Battle of Agos
Agos was the site of a horrible battle that took place in the year 825/6 between the forces of Gwynne and Orel against an invading army of orcs, which took place during the Forgotten War.
The Gwynnish were victorious and successfully ended the orcish invasion, but were unable to prevent the destruction of the city of Ashara.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'NDS - ROM Hacking and Translations' started by pdav20, Jan 28, 2007.
Photoshopped. Linkage or it doesn't exist.
hehe... this would be nice.
I think Nintendo had it planned for ages since they showed something of the like at E3 2005, IIRC.
Its called DSSpeak and should be out soon.
Oh man. You would look SO STUPID holding that big purple DS up to your head and speaking into a Wario face!
that ds isnt purple
hellods died, the next best is moonlights app
1) that sounds like an interesting idea, anyone know what its meant to do?
2) Did anyone else notice the name Wario on the DSPhone contacts list?
and finally
3) its not a purple DS its a normal silver one but the lights in the background make it seem purple, i know this because im pretty sure theres no purple DS's and if there were they would be darker than that, eg the Blue ds is not a very light shade of blue.
wifi VoiceChatClient Version 1.5
Best EVER!
A phone would be cool, but to have a real phone you would need a cell-phone signal receiver attachment for your DS. Then, you would probably have to pay for your signal. The current voice chat homebrew obviously only works with wi-fi.
IMO the stuff like the DS have the most potential... much more than ipod and those crap... it's gaming oriented so it has more processing power than those cells/mp3 players... plus it's got touch screen and 2 screens... there's huge possiblily, i hope nintendo develop this crap further.
They probably will, once demand dies down a bit and they need a new gimmick (now matter how important you think it is) to boost sales.
or you could have like your own server and have IP to IP chat using the DS. That way you dont have to worry about people coming into it unless you give them your IP. Then theres a chance that you may not have to open any ports either...wait...how does the wifi chat that that guy made works? If anything he can release a server program and just allow the user to edit the Ip address that it connects to.
You can probably use your ip to make a username so people can add you and call you if they knew who you are. Like Friends lists or something.
ahaha that idea sounds like apple iphone :x
actually a phone ds lite would look like apple made too

Permian Pulse: What ever happened to the southern Midland Basin?
You can pay by card or invoice
Report summary
Don't look now but the rig count in the once-forgotten southern Midland Basin is on the rise again. There are now a combined 37 horizontal rigs active in Upton, Reagan, Irion and Crocket counties, impressive when put into the context that there are 42 active rigs in the entire Williston Basin. Wisdom from 2014 would tell us that the southern Midland is no good, so what has changed to bring activity back? The easy answer, of course, is oil price as we estimated last year the southern part of the basin needed $48/bbl to see material activity return. But it's a lot more than just some price support, forget what you thought you knew about the southern Midland – it's a new play today.
What's included
This report contains

- Private equity is back on the scene

Latino Celebration 2017 at the Newark Public Library
The Newark Public Library's annual Latino Celebration will feature the exhibition Boricuas in the Garden: The Story of Puerto Ricans in New Jersey, on view from September 14 through December 31, 2017, and a series of related programs at the Main Library located at 5 Washington Street.
Boricua, pronounced BÔ-ree-kwa, another term for Puerto Rican, comes from Borikén – the name the Taínos, the island's pre-Columbian inhabitants gave their homeland.
Puerto Ricans are the second-largest Latino group in the United States and the largest in New Jersey. The Garden State has been a good home: this community enjoys higher high school graduation rates, higher median household income, and higher per capita income than other stateside or island Puerto Ricans. The people of Puerto Rico are American citizens, and have been so since 1917, when the US Congress passed the Jones-Shaffroth Act. As a result, the people of Puerto Rico can move throughout the 50 states just as other Americans do.
However, when coming to the US, Puerto Ricans leave a homeland with its own distinct identity and culture, and the transition involves many of the same cultural conflicts and emotional adjustments that most immigrants face. Although early generations of migrants confronted great obstacles, their labors and activism created institutions that now benefit newer Latino immigrant groups: community based organizations, churches, civic and cultural centers, businesses, educational and political organizations.
The 2017 Latino Celebration explores the long history and dynamic presence of Puerto Ricans in New Jersey and illustrates how this vibrant community has become an integral part of the fabric of the Garden State, illustrated with archival materials, historic photographs, and other documents about individuals and the community organizations they established, many drawn from the Library's holdings in the Puerto Rican Community Archives, part of the New Jersey Hispanic Research and Information Center.

The exhibit also showcases a selection of graphic arts by distinguished Puerto Rican artists from the library's Fine Prints Collection. The island was one of the most important countries in graphic arts in the mid-20th century, and the Newark Public Library has collected approximately 400 fine prints by artists including Lorenzo Homar, Rafael Tufiño, José Rosa, Roberto Moya, Antonio Martorell, Luis Cajiga, Myrna Báez, Nelson Sambolín, and others.

Image: Lorenzo Homar. El Maestro. Woodblock print. 1972. Fine Print Collection, Special Collections, The Newark Public Library.
This print features quotes from speeches given by Pedro Albizu Campos (b. 1891, d. 1965) in 1930.
Boricuas in the Garden was curated by Ingrid Betancourt, Chief Librarian for Special Collections; Yesenia López, Director, New Jersey Hispanic Research and Information Center at the Newark Public Library; and Kristyn Scorsone, Archival Assistant, NJHRIC.
On view from September 14 to December 31, 2017
2nd Floor Gallery, Main Library, 5 Washington Street, Newark
The exhibition will be open during regular Library hours, Monday through Saturday, with free admission. Group visits and more details are readily available by calling La Sala Hispanoamericana at the Library at 973-733-7772.
Public Programs
Latino Celebration 2017 will include the following public programs, all offered free of charge:
Opening Reception for Boricuas in the Garden: The Story of Puerto Ricans in New Jersey
Thursday, September 14
6:00 – 8:00 pm
Centennial Hall
The story of the Puerto Rican people is unique in the history of U.S. immigration. This vibrant community has a long history in New Jersey and has become an integral part of the fabric of the Garden State. Please join us for the kick-off event for the Newark Public Library's 2017 Latino Celebration exhibit and program series.
Keynote Speaker, Samuel Delgado, Vice President for External Affairs for Verizon New Jersey. Other special guests include Edgardo Miranda-Rodríguez, creator and writer of the new critically-acclaimed superhero and comic book series, La Borinqueña, and Nelson "Butchie" Nieves and the members of the Puerto Rican Day Parade 2017 Royal Court.
The evening's festivities include a Salsa dance performance and lesson.
Gran Fiesta Jíbara
Saturday, September 30
2:00 – 3:30 pm
Centennial Hall
Spanish settlers who made their livelihood through the cultivation of small plantations in the highlands of Puerto Rico were known as "jíbaros" or country folk. Jíbaro music has its roots in the musical forms that came to the island from Spain during the time of colonization and settlement. In it you can hear the influence of eight centuries of Arab domination in Spain, as well as the legacy of the Taíno, the island's native people. Rubén Figueroa and Conjunto Ritmo Tropical bring an "orquesta jíbara," to the Library this fall. Bring your family, your maracas, güiros, and bongos, and enjoy a gran fiesta jíbara.
Comic Book Talk and Signing, with Edgardo Miranda-Rodríguez
Saturday, October 14
2:00 – 3:30 pm
4th Floor Auditorium
Meet Edgardo Miranda-Rodríguez, creator and writer of the new superhero La Borinqueña, for a talk about the making of his critically-acclaimed comic book series, followed by a comic book signing. Miranda-Rodríguez has been spotlighted by major media outlets from Telemundo to the New York Times for the creation of this Afro-boricua heroine whose mission is to help the Puerto Rican community unite and fight for social justice. This Nuyorican artist uses his comic to raise awareness about Puerto Rico's human rights and economic issues. He is also a writer for Marvel Comics, and an independent publisher.
Film Screening The Borinqueneers
Saturday, October 28
2:00 – 4:30 pm
4th Floor Auditorium
The award-winning documentary The Borinqueneers chronicles the untold story of the Puerto Rican 65th Infantry Regiment, the only all Hispanic-unit in U.S. Army history. Rare archival materials and compelling interviews with veterans, commanding officers, and historians bring to life stories of courage, struggle, and triumph. Narrated by Hector Elizondo, The Boriqueneers reveals how soldiers of the 65th Infantry Regiment served with merit in World War I, World War II, and the Korean War.
Screening introduced by Noemí Figueroa Soulet, producer, director, and writer. Following the screening there will be remarks by local 65th Infantry Regiment veterans, and a Q and A session.
Public Forum: Puerto Rico's Present Crisis and Political Future
Saturday, November 4
2:00 – 4:00 pm
4th Floor Auditorium
Billions in debt, a staggering unemployment rate, and a declining population have dominated news coverage of Puerto Rico and caused many to question the island's governance and stability. But few reports have bothered to examine the deep roots of the current crisis. How did we get here, and how can the Puerto Rican people deal with the country's immediate problems and long-term economic challenges? Join the conversation at the Newark Public Library as we mark a century of American citizenship for Puerto Ricans.
This public forum will feature keynote speaker Juan Cartagena, President and General Counsel of Latino Justice–Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund (PRLDEF). Cartagena will be joined by Sarah Molinari, doctoral candidate in Cultural Anthropology at the City University of New York Graduate Center. Jason Cortés, Associate Professor, Graduate Program in American Studies, Rutgers University-Newark, will serve as moderator.
Eating Puerto Rico, a cooking demonstration and tasting
Saturday, November 18
2:00 – 4:00 pm
Centennial Hall
Puerto Rican gastronomy is a delicious and aromatic blend of Spanish, African and Caribbean spices and ingredients. Think mofongo, alcapurrias, arroz con gandules, pasteles, tembleque, mallorcas…. Don't know what these are? Come to the Library and bring your curiosity and appetite.
Chef Kenny Candelaria, owner of the Puerto Rican restaurant Cocina Candela in Montclair, will be demonstrating his own style of "cocina criolla" featuring his signature trifongo and a few other essential Puerto Rican dishes. Candelaria has a passion for fusing traditional ingredients with contemporary cooking techniques to create a unique gastronomic statement (and a delicious meal).
This year's Latino Celebration programs and exhibit are made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts, and administered by the Essex Council Division of Cultural and Historic Affairs, support from Verizon / NJ Shares Communications Lifeline program, and by a grant from the Friends of the HRIC.
Also on view at the Library this fall will be the exhibition We Are Still Here: Taíno Survival and Identity, which celebrates the survival of the indigenous Taíno culture in the Caribbean and United States diaspora with a selection of Taíno-themed contemporary art. The exhibit is curated by Sonia Vera and Jaimí Kauríx Rodríguez, and presented in partnership with the Puerto Rican Day Parade of Newark.
Exhibition on view from September 10 to November 30, 2017
1st Floor Gallery, Main Library, 5 Washington Street, Newark

Are you spending money on a surveillance system that no one is watching? Simply recording for after-the-fact evidence does little to protect from loss and property damage. Stealth's live video surveillance is proactive, offering real-time monitoring to deter crime before it happens.
Most traditional monitoring solutions are reactive, waiting for an alarm to sound or event to occur before someone views the video and alerts the police. This often results in a delay in response time and a greater opportunity for criminals to get away.
See Crimes in Progress
Stealth Monitoring live video surveillance operators can call the property manager and police when they see intruders on your property, even in back alleys, parking lots, storefronts and on rooftops.
Deter Damage Before it Happens
Speaker activations will alert trespassers and would-be criminals that your shopping center, multifamily apartment complex, auto dealership, office building, warehouse, construction site or other type of commercial real estate property is being watched live, often resulting in subjects fleeing from your premises before they cause damage, loss or liability.
Arrest Criminals While They're Still on Your Property
Because police tend to respond more quickly to crimes in progress, Stealth live video surveillance can result in actual arrests before criminals leave your property. We average one arrest every day.
Guard Savings
Stealth's live video surveillance has been used to both replace and augment traditional security guard services with more effective results and less liability at a fraction of the cost. Our virtual guard service eliminates the need for salaries, medical insurance, uniforms and many other expenses associated with a traditional guard.

McKenna Girl...I dont even care, she's cute!

McKenna, Landon and UPS
So, McKenna has had a cough lately and so we took her to the emergency room on Sunday. The doctor said she was fine...just a minor viral cold. Well...we took her to her 2 month appointment on Monday (the day after) and her peditritian did an evaluation on her. Yeah, she has an ear ache in her right ear, and one forming on her left ear, and the doctor thinks she might be getting RSV. RSV is a respiratory viral infection that is really bad in little kinds and infants. I have to keep monitoring her for the next few days because if her breathing worsens then the doctors will have to put her on monitors and suck out all of the crap in her lungs. She's been doing alright though, just sleeping mostly. I have her on some antibiotics for her ears! The doctor thinks she could have gotten it through the air. They are JUST starting to see RSV in the area. Anyways, she's been doin alright. I just thought I'd tell you all and keep you informed on my life! haha
I dont think i've ever posted anything about Landon on here recently. The day before we went to PA for my paps funeral..Landon fell jumping on the bed and got staples. When we got back to Utah, we had to get them taken out. Yesterday, he was running through the house, and fell and wacked his forehead on the stairs. Of course he cried, but he is doin alright!
Ohh, and then I had some stuff mailed from PA to Utah that I couldn't take on the airplane when I left PA. It was some of my paps stuff...(a pocket knife and some other things from his room). Anyways, I received the pkg yesterday...with no contents in it! This means that the mail place lost the contents in the pkg, and so i've been trying to give details to UPS on what exactly was in the box. Ohh, and getting insurance on the pkg doesnt' refund anything because I dont have receips for any of the stuff I was sending home. SUCKY!
Anyways, thats my life at the moment!

Love my family!
Today I miss my pappy! I've never lost anyone close to me until Nov 11th of this year, and man, it was tough! I am NOT looking forward to the next person I lose in this life. I love my mom and dad a ton, and even though I dont get to see them much, it doesnt matter. Memories last lifetime, and thats all we have. Take advantage of being with family when you are with them because you never know when it will be the last time you see them. I got to see my grandma Zaccheus recently and i'm actually really glad. It made me said to see her in a wheelchair, and waiting for a nurse to come and make her dinner. I'm just glad that I got to see her before I left PA this last time.

ELMWOOD PARK, N.J.– Jason Colombini of Elmwood Park was just a preschooler when he heard the classic Guns N' Roses tune " Sweet Child O'Mine ."
The hit came on the radio while he was in the car with his mom, and he hasn't been able to shake it ever since.
"When I heard Slash's guitar solo, I said, 'That's what I want to do with my life,'" Colombini, 14, told Daily Voice.
The first song Colombini learned wasn't the GNR staple, rather Green Day's "American Idiot." Still, he continued to play covers until last year when he began crafting original material.
The rising EPHS freshman lists Guns N Roses, Slash, Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhodes, Kurt Cobain as influences. He's also into Kiss, Black Sabbath, Bon Jovi and AC/DC.
One of his favorite songs to play is "Eruption/You've Really Got Me" by Van Halen.
'It took me about a week to learn," he said. "I tend to make stuff my own, though. I know how to do the tapping part correctly but I added my own parts to it instead of playing it exactly."
Colombini owns four guitars: A Gibson Les Paul Goldtop, a Washburn Nuno Bettencourt and two Yamaha acoustics.
During his solo acoustic shows on Tuesdays at Maywood's Oak Ale House, he tunes his one guitar a full step down to C# "so it's easy for me to sing certain songs."
That includes Skid Row's " I Remember You ."
"It's really high for me, now that my voice is starting to get deeper," Colombini said.
Colombini performs at open mic nights at Rivara's in Fair Lawn every Sunday. Once a month, he plays the venue with his friend Jenn Bialy.
The musician, who was told by a former guitar teacher that he has perfect pitch, has a Sept. 18 solo acoustic show G.W. Grill in Fort Lee.
Colombini is also the lead guitarist and vocalist for the band Unidentified Remains . He's also the youngest member.
The other musicians are over 50, Colombini said, "which is mainly why we have a big mix of music.
"Pretty much we play classic rock – everything from 60s to the 90s," he added. "I enjoy Woodstock-era music and I love 80s hair metal and grunge."
His mom, Sandra, who works with special needs children, books his gigs.
"We have a lot of friends that are musicians," she said. "They like to have him join them. If it's a place we haven't been before, usually the musicians will ask the venue ahead of time."
Though the booking almost doubles as another full-time job, Sandra doesn't mind.
"I'm behind him 100 percent," she said. "It's all good experience for him."

2014 Raider S
Style. Performance. Attitude. The Raider delivers on all three and rides unlike any other chopper-inspired custom in the world.
- Form and Function
The Raider® was inspired by the custom chopper movement, but since it's a Star, it had to also handle, stop and go.
- Kicked-out Front Fork
A 6-degree yoke angle—the first ever on a Star® motorcycle—makes it possible to achieve that custom raked-out look as well as neutral handling and straight-line cruisability combining a 33-degree rake plus 6 degrees yoke angle gives the Raider a total rake of 39 degrees and 102mm of trail.
- Stylish Custom Wheels
Custom 5-spoke aluminum wheels carry a 120/70 profile, 21-inch tire up front, and a wide, 210/40-18 radial out back—the tallest and widest ever on a Star.
- Real Steel Fenders
No cheap plastic fenders here—this authentic cruiser has real steel fenders customizers love. Classic belt drive, too.
- Ready to Customize
Get started on your own customization. The Star® Accessories Catalog is packed full of high-quality parts that invite Star owners to fully express their individuality.
- Ready to Travel
Estimated 42 mpg* means this cruiser can go the distance between fill-ups.

Great places to visit this festival season
Posted by Royal Sundaram on 11 Oct 2010
India is a country of celebrations and India's mega festive season has just begun!
It commences with Navaratri, as different parts of the country gears up to rejoice it, adhering to their own unique traditions. For South Indians, it is Golu time. In northern part of the country Navaratri is celebrated as Dussehra. In the Eastern side Navaratri is dedicated to Goddess Durga. The West is famous for its Garba dance all through the night during this auspicious festival.
Wouldn't it be a great experience to explore few unique travel destinations and cultures, around this time, within India? You can make it an exciting festive holiday, instead of being confined to the city. Here's a snippet about Navaratri customs followed across India.
Dussehra is celebrated with lots of fanfare and pompous shows are organised with extravagance. Kullu in Himachal observes this 9 day festival with colourful procession of their local deities filled with joyous music across the town. In Delhi, Varanasi and other parts of north India, the scenes are spectacular with a pictorial presentation of Ramayana. The end of Dussehra is marked by burning a huge effigy of Ravana.
Down South, women and children would be busy adorning their homes, with toys, idols of Gods and Goddesses, creating their own little doll museum. Chennai is another destination to be explored – for its music and other cultural programmes that are of great attraction to spiritual Indians. Travellers can feel devotional bliss with visits to the temples such as the Kapaaleshwar in Mylapore. In Karnataka, the palace of Mysore is lit up, making it a feast for the eyes.
Kolkata and other parts of West Bengal would be filled with fairs, music and entertainment, during Durga Puja which commemorates the killing of Mahishasura – the buffalo demon by goddess Durga, worshipped by all Bengalis in this period. With all those chaat items and Bengali sweets to be savoured – one must look at visiting it during this time for holidays.
In Gujarat and neighbouring states, one can enjoy the fascinating garba dance. Kids, youth and elders take part in it with equal enthusiasm and sometimes, you may find over 100 people dancing in sequence, making it a vibrant sight!
So what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and celebrate in home away from home. Don't forget to get a nice camera to capture the colourful images of incredible India!

Montagne Jeunesse Creamy Coconut Face Mask Review
Inside my #VivaVoxBox of complimentary products for testing and review from Influenster was Montagne Jeunesse's Creamy Coconut face mask. Made with cruelty-free ingredients such as fresh Coconut Water and smoothing Shea Butter, this mask promised to moisturize and hydrate. Because the package had enough of the creamy mask formula for more than just myself, I shared with my daughter and we made a spa night out of it.
The mask smelled wonderful and felt cool and refreshing on our skin. We smoothed the formula over our faces and let it settle for about 10 - 15 minutes. We both have sensitive skin, mine dry and hers combination, but the mask worked wonderfully for both of our skin types.
After 10 - 15 minutes, we rinsed our faces and immediately noticed how smooth and soft our faces felt. I would absolutely use this mask again, and my daughter really wants to try more Montagne Jeunesse products because they are cruelty free and feel great on her skin!

Forget for a moment that JPMorgan Chase bombed a key regulatory test and reported a sizable earnings decline Wednesday, and look more closely at the underlying numbers: the nation's largest bank posted solid results in bread-and-butter banking.
It's a good sign for the big and regional banks that are set to report first-quarter results over the next few weeks, given that many observers had already written off the quarter (and, in some cases, the year) for lenders and other U.S. businesses. What it means for community banks is more debatable.
Perhaps more certain is that JPMorgan appears to be weathering low interest rates just fine.
Net interest income rose 7% from a year earlier, to more than $11 billion. The net interest margin expanded by 23 basis points, to 2.30%. Total loans grew by double digits, fueled by major gains in auto, mortgages and commercial real estate.
To be sure, higher credit costs and lower trading fees were a drag on profits. The company boosted its set-aside for bad oil loans by more than $500 million. If oil prices stay low, it could increase reserves by an additional $500 million over the course of the year, executives said.
Yet the pep in JPMorgan's core units suggests that the economy may be stronger than it appears, despite recent market turmoil, analysts said. After a string of quarters of weak revenue growth for banks, JPMorgan's combination of higher margins and loan expansion could be the upbeat sign that the industry has waited for.
"I think it's a positive message — but maybe not to the extent that it is for JPMorgan," said Jeff Harte, an analyst with Sandler O'Neill. "It suggests that the lack of additional rate hikes might not be as much of a revenue" crunch as banks had initially thought.
Other analysts were more skeptical. JPMorgan's strong results could be a sign that the megabank is stealing market share from its smaller competitors, according to Gerard Cassidy, an analyst with RBC Capital Markets.
"We will see what the industry shows" in the coming weeks, Cassidy said. JPMorgan's strong push into mobile banking, in particular, could be a sign that it's attracting business from smaller competitors, he added. JPMorgan's mobile customer base grew by 19% from a year ago, to 23.8 million users.
Overall, JPMorgan beat estimates for what analysts had predicted to be a lackluster quarter for the company. Shares had climbed nearly 5% in midafternoon trading.
Solid performance in JPMorgan's loan book helped the company overcome an otherwise tough morning.
Just hours after JPMorgan released its quarterly results, the Federal Reserve Board and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. declared its living will submission "noncredible." The ruling sets in motion a regulatory timeline that could result divestitures or other penalties.
Wells Fargo, Bank of America, State Street and Bank of New York Mellon also flunked the regulatory test. All five banks have until October to resubmit their plans.
"We're going to do everything possible to fix this issue," Jamie Dimon, the company's chairman and chief executive, said during a conference call with reporters.
Overall, profits at the $2.4 trillion-asset company declined 7% from a year earlier, to $5.5 billion. Lower trading fees, mostly from stock market declines earlier this year, weighed down the first-quarter results.
Chief Financial Officer Marianne Lake emphasized that, despite dismal performance in trading and asset management, JPMorgan's consumer businesses are growing at a rapid clip.
"We have the belief that the U.S. economy is continuing to move in the right direction [and] that the consumer is on solid footing," Lake said during a conference call with analysts.
Loans grew across the company. Residential mortgages rose by 37%, to $172 billion, in part because of the company's push into jumbo loans. Auto loans grew 13%, to $62.9 billion. Consumer and business loans rose 6%, to 22.9 billion.
"Loan growth helps, and they've been growing loans faster than we expected," Harte said.
A range of factors also helped to expand the company's net interest margin, according to industry analysts.
In addition to making more loans, JPMorgan has spent the past year shedding noncore, higher-cost deposits. Total deposits have shrunk 3%, to $1.3 trillion, as the company has turned its focus to smaller retail clients.
JPMorgan's business model as a megabank also gave its margin a boost. A large portion of the company's balance sheet — nearly 20% — includes cash that is deposited at banks or with the Fed. Yields on those short-term deposits grew at a faster rate than other assets, following the rate hike in December.
For instance, the average rate on deposits with banks increased 22 basis points, to 0.51%. The average rate on loans, meanwhile, declined 2 basis points, to 4.26%.
Still, JPMorgan's rapid loan growth pushed some analysts to worry if the company is overexposing itself to risky markets.
Throughout the call, analysts pressed JPMorgan executives on the company's rapid growth in commercial real estate — a business that regulators have warned is getting overheated.
The company expanded commercial real estate lending by 18%, but executives said underwriting remains strong.
"We haven't changed our geography, and we haven't changed our risk appetite," Lake said.
One analyst agreed. JPMorgan is "not showing any weakness" when it comes to credit quality, according to Paul Miller, an analyst with FBR capital markets.
"CRE is fine. Everybody is overly concerned about CRE," Miller said, noting that the company had an "OK quarter" overall.
The biggest concern JPMorgan's growth in CRE is the potential for losses in the next couple of years, when the market is widely predicted to turn, Cassidy said.
"In the best markets, the worst loans are made," Cassidy said.
Executives were also pressed on looming risks in the auto market. The company has pulled back from subprime originations, and credit quality remains strong for car loans, Lake said.
Focusing on borrowers with higher credit scores will likely make JPMorgan immune to broader downturns in auto loans, the company said.
"I do think you'll see issues in the market," Dimon said.

Sunday on CBS's "Face the Nation," former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said he has "real issues" with presumptive Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's positions on national security.
Gates said, "Well, I have some real issues with things he said about national security policy and some concerns. I think there's some contradictions. You can't have a trade war with China then turn around ask them to help you on North Korea. I have no idea what his policy would be in terms of dealing with ISIS. I worry a little bit about his admiration for Vladimir Putin."

"The Stories We Tell" is a first-of-its-kind testimonial writing workshop for those who have lived through or witnessed gender-based violence.
Since launching the first workshop at the Chicago Cultural Center in 2011, The Voices and Faces Project has conducted over a dozen workshops in cities across North America. Though participants enter the 2-day workshop as strangers, they emerge with a sense of shared purpose and the conviction that their stories can create social and political change.
Together we discover the power of our own voices, while bringing our testimony to the attention of the public. The bonds formed in the workshop remain strong long after our weekend together. To deepen these bonds we started #TheStoriesWeTell, creating a virtual community to share projects inspired by the workshop, to introduce alumni from various regions to one another, and to invite others into the conversation.
How do I use it?
How is the story you have to tell about gender-based violence creating change? Whether you're a graduate of our workshop, a fellow survivor, or an ally in the making, we want to hear your voice, and your truth. Help us build a movement to end gender-related violence one tweet at a time.
Please include #TheStoriesWeTell in your tweet. You can see other responses by typing #TheStoriesWeTell into the search field located at the top of your Twitter page, or check back here to see a live Twitter feed on this page.
"Through The Voices and Faces Project's writing workshop I found my voice—and I found the joy that comes with realizing that I don't have to go it alone. Thank you for affording me the opportunity to be heard, to hear others, and to experience immeasurable healing."
