Well, I was seeing 9 to 5, and since I don't think I'd make a very attractive Dolly...
I think you chose the right outfit then!
That's two jackets in a row that at least appear to fit a bit oddly; too narrow across the upper chest, too squared-off through the torso. It makes them appear somewhat awkward. I'd suggest trying out a few different makers and seeing if this is something that changes with other brands.
This is pretty cool. Trousers have a decent line to them, and the fabric of the jacket looks nice. It also seems vaguely familiar; purely out of curiosity do you happen to know what fabric it is?
But kitonbrioni is pure outfit posting power with no dicussion at all; his posts are therefore more efficient...
I tend to think of these colours/patterns as your comfortzone/sweetspot, at least over recent months; you do variations around them very nicely.

i love my new boots!
"I have tons of shoes, my friends said I am addicted to buying shoes, but I do not own a lot of boots. I have a pair of short boots, that is it (UGG doesn't count.) I love the design of this shoes, and the leather quality is pretty good. I prefer black than browns, because black goes with everything. true to size, comfortable to wear for long time. got a couple of compliments on my first day of wearing them. Looks classic, and the price is right around my budget. Highly recommended."

Beautiful boot, but....
"I was unable to zip them up due to my wide calves. I did a search through DSW for wide calf boots and these came up, but unfortunately they did not fit. As mentioned before, these boots are beautiful and the craftmanship is lovely, but just didn't fit my calves."

cute shoes
"I wanted some flat black shoes for summer, but wanted some that would be cute for both dress up and casual. these are even cuter in person! I have been ordering shoes in 8s lately, and these seem a little more snug than normal, i also think i will need to wear them in as walking around the house in them there is one spot that i think is going to be a rubbing problem. haven't worn them outside yet as winter is dragging this year!"

What Good is Moral Reasoning?
Hugo Mercier
University of Neuchatel
March 8, 2011
Mind & Society, Forthcoming
The role of reasoning in our moral lives has been increasingly called into question by moral psychology. Not only are intuitions guiding many of our moral judgments and decisions, with reasoning only finding post-hoc intuitions, but reasoning can sometimes play a negative role, by finding excuses for our moral violations. The observations fit well with the argumentative theory of reasoning (Mercier H, Sperber D in press, Why do humans reason? Arguments for an argumentative theory. Behav Brain Sci), which claims that reasoning evolved to find and evaluate arguments in dialogic contexts. This theory explains the strong confirmation bias that reasoning displays when it produces arguments, which in turn explains its tendency to rationalize our decisions. But this theory also predicts that people should be able to evaluate arguments felicitously and that, as a result, people should reason better in groups, when they are confronted with other people's arguments. Groups are able to converge on better moral judgments. It is argued that reasoning and argumentation play an important role in our everyday moral lives, and a plea for the value of reasoning for moral change is made.

Happy Hour - Stand-up
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2004
Susan Murray and Karen Bayley present a Happy Hour of stand-up and cheap drinks to kick start your Edinburgh Festival evening.
, Susan Murray
Original Review:
This double bill of Brummies (well, West Brom and Wolverhampton) suffers from offering too much of the same thing, with no contrast in their comedy styles.
Karen Bayley, an ex-teacher, was efficient with a faultlessly well-written routine. She has lots of Brummie jokes and Christmas came early for her when she discovered an entire row of Brummies in the small audience.
Her laugh-out-loud jokes are based round traditional but good observational comedy subjects and this plus superb audience control should see her continue and prosper on the live circuit.
Susan Murray suffered from following a better comic doing much the same line in observational humour.
But, whereas Bayley was mistress of some charming put-downs, Murray came across as comparatively cold, opening with an unremitting yet weak slagging-off of Scots, Brummies and the Welsh.
The mask dropped on three occasions when she justifiably laughed at three particularly well-crafted jokes of hers and, underneath, could be seen a much warmer and more attractive character. That's the one she should go with.
When last sighted, Susan Murray was in risque territory; currently, she seems adrift in Comedyland.
Older Comments

The first of the girls was funny enough but the second of the two - Susan Murray - really blew me away. Would heartily recommend her show to anybody.
Karen Bayley - 23/08/2004
The reviewer has failed to point out that our audience was in stitches and he was the only one sitting with a face like a smacked arse. In the interests of balance readers should go to

Time and money. Wouldn't all of us like to have more of both? I certainly would, and I'm guessing Ryan Smyth feels the same way. That's why it's far from a slam-dunk Smyth ends up re-signing with the Edmonton Oilers.
In case anybody has forgotten, time and money put an end to Smyth's first go-round with the Oilers. When GM Kevin Lowe didn't offer Smyth and agent Don Meehan enough dough during the 2006-07 season, the sides ran out of time, resulting in Smyth being dealt away to the New York Islanders and a teary farewell at EIA when 11th-hour negotiations fell through.
Five years later, we can debate how, if and where Smyth fits with the Oilers moving forward – Jonathan Willis offered yet another take today – and use all kinds of statistics and scenarios to justify our positions, but my sense is time and money, as it often is in the hockey business, will be the bottom line.
Smyth and Meehan turned down a contract offer from the Oilers before the trade deadline – a deal believed to be two years at $2 million a season – and now time comes into play. We're already into May and GM Steve Tambellini has a lot on his plate that bumps Smyth down the priority list.
I can understand why Smyth wouldn't jump at a two-year deal in the $2 million range. Fair enough, but, that means he's going to have to wait for another offer, assuming there is one.
Tambellini has a full plate these days. His own contract extension hasn't been made official, yet. He's got a coaching decision to make. Is Tom Renney coming back? If not, then who comes in? That's not exactly a bit of business you take care of in a day or two, as we've seen.
Tambellini's scouting staff is in Palm Springs preparing for the 2012 Entry Draft and kicking around what to do with the team's third consecutive first overall pick. He's going to have a hand in that. Then, he's off to the World Championships. After that, there's preparation for the NHL combine. When that's done, it's off to the draft and later, free agency.
If Smyth feels like he's been put on the back burner after turning down Tambellini's first offer, there's good reason for it. He is on the back burner. Time and timing plays into contract talks with a lot of players, especially third-liners, which Smyth is now.
We're not necessarily re-visiting 2007 and rushed series of phone calls between Meehan and Lowe at the deadline because there is still plenty of time to sit down again, unlike the final hours of his first tour here, but Smyth is going to have to bide his time.
Smyth, 36, made $4.5 million in real money and had a cap hit of $6.25 million in 2011-2012 in the final year of his last contract, so he's going to have to take a significant hit in the wallet in any new deal. The question is how much of a hit he's willing to take.
If Smyth and Meehan expect an offer from the Oilers in the range of $3 million a year, they might as well start considering their options elsewhere July 1 because that isn't going to happen in Edmonton. And it shouldn't.
The Smyth fans saw in the first 20 games or so this season made for a feel-good story in his return to the Oilers. He sure looked like he was earning every cent of his salary. The last 60 games? Not so much. If you split the difference, that's my best guess as to what we get moving forward.
If the Oilers decide Smyth is a fit – and there are reasonable arguments to be made on both sides of that debate -- they've got to decide what his role will be and what they'll pay. Smyth, no doubt, has his own numbers, term and dollars, in mind. That, with one offer turned down, will have to wait.
Time and money.

Love Smytty's heart and soul and he would be an awesome leader... but if he's holding out for more cash and top 6 line play then forget it. There are easily better forwards with more skill and ability to complete the top 6 and if Ryan cannot see that then don't let the door hit you on the way out of Etown again.. and this time there is no coming back. PERIOD. If he wants to help this team win as he has said in the past then he needs to know his role and that's a third liner with PK time and the odd PP shift for his ability to stand in front of the net and wreak havoc. Other than that, his ability over the last 50 games clearly shows he cannot handle the 82 game grind any longer.
Robin. If the new CBA sees a rollback of 20%. Smyth signing at 2.5 would then translate into a 2 million dollar contract.Stupid math.
Here is why the Oilers wait and see. And here is why the other 29 GM's are not going to pay 3 million for Ryan this summer. The CBA. If the new agreement is such that the cap is set at 55 million then that puts alot of pressure on GM's to ensure that they fill thier 3rd and 4 th lines with players in the 1.5 to 900,000 range. Thats what I see as the starting point for Smyth. If you sign him in the 1.5-1.8 range that would make sense. Even with amnesty clauses and such the reality is that teams will be scrambling to trim payroll to meet the cap.
If Smyth can find someone to pay him 3 million dollars this summer all the power to him.
Time and money are on the Oilers side.
If the cap is renegotiated to 50% of revenue's, I doubt they will roll back the $64m figure. They will likely put a percentage of salaries in escrow, and give it back to the players if 50% equals $64m, like they did after the lock-out. I suspect G.M.'s are negotiating with the present figure in mind. If revenue translates to a lower cap, then money will be held back to cover the difference. So $2.5m is $2.5m
@ Vaclav
Steve already let the rooster back into the hen house. It's a little late to try and play boss and possibly embarass the organization again. The time to say no to Ryan Smyth was last summer. You can't say no to 94 now that you chose to bring him back and allow him to finish his career here. Tambellini throws nearly 10 million dollars out the window on Souray and Quinn, and now it's time to pinch pennies on Ryan Smyth? 5-6 over 2 yrs is much closer to what he wants, for optics sake they need to put this issue to bed. They're thin on the left side anyways.
It cost them a guy they didn't want and a 7th, in reality they probably would have given a team a 7th to take Fraser with no return, they got Smyth and it was a good trade and still is even if he leaves.
You CAN'T reference Sourays buyout and Quinns contract to Smyth because Quinn doesn't effect the cap or roster.
ALot of fans have posted on here saying they gave Belanger this, Khabi that, Souray to not play, but in reality that doesn't matter because that is stupid management if you judge it by that.
Gomez got overpaid in Montreal and can't be dumped so does that mean every guy in Montreal should get signed for more then him?
Smyth was offered a contract and he didn't take it, thats fine he is a UFA its his call, I am happy Tambellini has finally figured out contracts.
Is Smyth an "awesome" leader?
Reuben c'mon - not an awesome leader? Ask the zamboni guys if they still have his chic-lets from 2006. The guy has grit, heart and a pretty good role model on what to be like in the community.
The thread has many comments on $ but maybe what Smytty wants is term. Maybe he wants $1.5 - $2MM for 3 yrs so he can be in an Oilers uni for one more playoff run. I think Smtty has plenty of cash and the guy isn't wired to grind out for a couple hundred more/ year.
If there are issues with Smyth in the locker room and his team mates, then Tambellini should just pull the offer.Smyth can go play in Calgary, I am sure Jay Feaster will be happy to sign him to a 5year 20 million dollar contract.Smyth has basically backed himself into a corner, by requesting to come back to Edmonton and by building his dream home here, he has no bargaining power with the Oilers.
"I think Smtty has plenty of cash and the guy isn't wired to grind out for a couple hundred more/ year . . ."
Isn't that exactly what happened in 2007?
Yes and he got his contract and asked to come back. Do you think now he's in the driver seat now to get a sweetheart contract? Not likely. He loves being an Oiler and wants to do it for as long as he can. He wants term.
I have been reading these blogs for a couple years and this is my first post, tired of people wanting to back up over a great hockey player as the orginization threw him under the bus once already. Come on guys. What did you actually expect when we got smitty back? a 80 point season? 46 points and a -5 on basicly last place team is a reasonable number for smyth, every sucessful team out there has some vets, most which dont but out near the points or effort smyth has day in and day out. Im not saying sign him for 5 mill a season (ahem injury prone hemmer) but give him something respectable, keep some of the team identity alive. Give the head a shake!
When Smyth came into this leauge the average player did not make 2 million a year.Time to climb off that high horse Ryan.You can Raise your kids in a city where there father is a HERO.How much more do you think you deserve?Remember Ryan you wanted to come back?This guy who I have loved and admired better get his head out of his ass.
The fact that Smyth has turned down the 2 year deal is a huge overstatement of his value of both himself and his self importance to the hockey club. With the Oilers so heavily laiden with talent on the left side...Hall, Yakupov(if there smart), Hartinakenen, and possible Curtis Hamilton, and the list goes on. I believe that there is enough veteren talent on the hockey club to do without Mr. Smyth. Its a bunch of to little to late for this guy

No one is complaining about his production if he puts another season like that together I think everyone would be happy, but every person with eyes can see Smyth has lost a step and can't play with Hall, RNH, Ebs, Hemsky, Gagner anymore. So that leaves him on the 3rd line. Where he should make about 2 mill or 2.5 if its just one year.
May 02 2012, 10:57PM
The oil have committed to a top 6 devoid of gristle. That necessary toughness has to come from somewhere ie the bottom 6 . Ryan is no longer a top 6 player on this team. He does not bring any truculence to the bottom 6. Its time to part company for good.
The oil are rebuilding are they not? Why have a 36 year old tying up a roster spot in a situation where his skill set doesn't match what is needed? There must be hundreds of players around that are not good enough but would try hard and for much less $$. Besides, Mr. Gorski, why keep a bottom feeder team identity alive. Grip your toque firmly and spin.
You don't think 2 million a year for 2 years for a 36 year old 3rd line winger isn't respectable? I would be surprised if he finds anything better.
All warm and fuzzy feelings aside, does Ryan Smith really warrant or command that much cash? His performance after the first twenty really went for a slide into the deep end. I can see why Tambo doesn't want to pay him an oversized amount. Sorry Ryan then honeymoon was over in November.
You can't compare the average joe to a professional athlete in terms of salary expectations. In the real world, most of us expect to make a reasonable wage amongst our peers and see that wage increase annually for most of our career. In most cases, the increase is marginal and the graph is a straight line till retirement. For pros, they expect their earnings to be a bell curve. Smitty knows this. He is well past his bell curve max and should be happy with a reasonable offer - like $2M x 2. That is a good offer when looking at the roster potential and the league as a whole.
Smyth gets a 3 year extention at 3M for first two , and 2M for third year . He's worth more than a Holmstrom to begin with and can play all lines in case of injuries , etc.. He's also an asset on power play and penalty kill- even at a reduced rate ! Don't like that contract , then give him 4M first year and 2M each additional without a no trade contract if possible . I don't see a better reliable option even at the price i believe he's worth . 2M just to low for a caliber player such as Smyth .
I can forgive if the Oilers pay a little more on a 1 year contract, but under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should the Oilers sign this guy to a multi-year over 35 contract. That is just plain stupid.
One-year makes sense for Smyth, too. CBA allows bonuses for players his age on one-year deals. He could sign for $2 million salary and bonuses to top it up.
Robin, The bonuses you speak of. Are they whatever Smyth and the Oilers come up with or are they somewhat controlled by the league. Are there set items like number of games played, goals scored and/or assisted on?
Robin - Who else can you find at my price that will bring more than Smyth, that is or will becoming available ? Certainly no one in current system even close. Three year 8 M contract is reasonable considering what Hemsky got for two . I don't see much else out there that can bring as much as he does even at my price . He'll get it even if it's not with us .
I think there have been enough subtle comments by certain media guys that know what is going on in the dressing room to suggest that the average fan may be well advised to take a second to consider whether Smytty actually is a good leader and is good in the dressing room.
My calendar says 2012, not 2006 and this is a different team and different room.
Smyth is a third liner on a 29 place team ,lets move on thanks for coming,give me someone that plays nasty.eg.jordan totoo

Easy Spirit Tucson Woven Clog
"Bought these for a very picky person (my sister).She IS the most difficult person to shop for, she considers cloths/shoe shopping excruciating. We have been looking for shoes for 18 months.A friend suggested DSW - stopped on a whim and so glad I did. We found these, she tried them on. I texted everyone across the states and HOORAY - could be heard from the east coast to the west coast. If she likes them, they have to be PERFECT and they are. Great fit, looks good and EXTREMELY comfortable. I bought a pair for myself and got her two more pairs. Get em' before their gone!"

Easy Spirit Tucson Clog
"Afer reading all the great reviews. I thought I finally found the right clog for work at my hospital. Unfortunatly, the insole kills this clog. It is so hot... my feet never sweat but this will make them sweat. They are comfortable so if u are ok with taking insoles out and putting ur own in then.. maybe u can make it work. I have yet to try it since I have to go buy some. Can someone request a great clog for 12 hour shifts from dsw. Thanks"

"I love the look and feel of these flip flops, the strap is very soft and comfortable. However, since there are no half sizes, I can't seem to find the right fit. 7 is way too short and 8 looks too big. They do look sturdy though, so if you are not a half size, go for them!"

Cute but Quirky
"These flip flops are adorable. The shoe is very comfy and even has a bit of an arch support which is difficult to find in women's flip flops. The only odd bit about them is that the left shoe seems to fit just slightly different than the right, like the fabric is sewn a little tighter and a quarter inch further forward. It isn't anything that will keep me from wearing the shoe or that you can notice by looking at it. It just feels a little funny...Overall I am very happy with my purchase."

A performance trail shoe featuring customizable underfoot protection, the Altra Superior offers minimal cushioning and a firm ride.
The Altra Superior is the embodiment of high-performance minimalist trail running. This lightweight trail shoe offers a zero drop platform and a foot-shaped last to allow for a more natural stride. A rugged outsole inspires confidence on a variety of trail surfaces, while a removable rock plate beneath the sockliner offers protection when you need it, so you can focus on the trail ahead.
Model Number:
Weight: 10.3 oz (size 9), including removable rock plate
Stack Height: Heel (12mm), Forefoot (12mm), without removable rock plate
Available Widths: D=Medium
How it fits (based on width D)
The Superior is a minimum feature, minimum neutral shoe designed for daily training and high mileage on trails. It is built with a semi-curved shape.
Comments: Great shoes for moderately technical trail running in dry conditions that also work well on roads. THey work very well for me on loose gravel type surfaces like carriage roads/bridle paths. Very comfortable, with the roomiest toebox of any trail shoe i've tried, but they run small- so up at least one full size than normal when ordering. The upper is not very breathable- they will be good shoes for running in colder weather. I wouldn't use these on wet trails or extremely technical terrain- i'll stick with the Lone Peaks for those situations. Another great shoe from Altra!
From: Michael, NYC, USA
Comments: Update: After 250 miles, the mesh is ripping near the ball of my foot. I slathered on shoe-goo, we'll see how that holds up. They are still my favorite trail shoes, but even with the stone guard, they don't offer much stone-protection. May have to go to Lone Peak for more grip and more protection, although I'm kind of holding out for a waterproof version.
From: Gil, NH
Comments: I've put some good trail runs under this shoe. Muddy and rocky in the snow on single track, drenched XC run on grass, single track through the pines and hardwoods that was very "rooty", and on some nice dry runs on single track and grassy xc courses. It is not a shoe for cushion, and I find that the rock plate protection is sub par. Traction is very poor on wet, muddy, or loose surfaces. This is my go to shoe for a well groomed XC run on dry grass or dry single track for some good calf muscle building. I normally wear a 10 in all my running shoes, but I wear an 11 in this shoe. It does drain well.
From: Baker, Covington, TN, USA
Comments: The good: Very comfortable, wide trail shoe that would do fine on dirt and road. You probably do need to go 1/2 or a full size up. The bad: Durability issues...with less than 100 miles on my pair, the fabric was already coming apart on the medial side of my left shoe. My Lone Peaks have held up much, much better.
From: Rob, AR
Comments: There is a lot to like about this shoe. It's flexible and responsive without compromising protection - exactly what you'd want in a trail racer. It's simply not exactly what I want, simply because the fit is off for me. I have a pretty narrow foot, so Altra's roomy forefoot feels awkward and gaping to me, like I'm slapping the ground. And while the arch is described as "low", it's still prominent enough to give me some pain on longer runs. Still, this is a great shoe for a higher volume foot than what I've got.
From: Alex, Lawrence, KS, USA
Comments: Everything I love about the Instinct, with grippy tread and a rock plate for trails. This is my favorite trail shoe ever. Maybe for 2013 they'll simplify the lacing holes/loops and make the tread a bit more aggressive, but I'd still buy them again as is!
From: Gil, NH
Comments: Awesome shoes. I went up a 1/2 size when removing the footed liner and rock plate. If you plan to keep both of these in there you'll probably want a full size up. lots of room in the toes but not so much that you feel like you've got clown shoes on (like lone peak). I like these far more than the NB MT110's.
From: Jason, Fort Collins, Colorado
Comments: One full size up still has a length slightly shorter than an average shoe. I went up to a 10 from a 9 and I'd need a 10 1/2 for Ultra distance. Feels very comfortable with wiggle room. Low to the ground and well connected, I really like the zero drop with a bit of cushioning. Removing the rock plate saves a significant amount of weight. Nice shoes!
From: Alan, Marin, CA
Comments: Love this shoe! This is my 4th pair of Altras and this completes the arsenal. They are less shoe than the lone peak (you can feel the reduction in cushion and material), they remind me a lot of how the Instinct runs, but with the trail tread. They are light & nimble. When the Lone Peak is a little too much shoe and you want something lighter on the trails, this is a fantastic shoe. I leave the thin rock guard in there....paired with a nice pair of smartwool socks, they are ideal. They run well on the roads as well....very flexible and nimble.
From: Zack, Ohio, USA

Cleveland is getting ready for the ribbon cutting and official opening of their fire station on May 1. The ribbon cutting will take place at 9:30 a.m. The Cleveland Spring Expo will follow from 10 a.m.- 8 p.m. This all day event will feature vendors from across the state.

Another part of the celebration will be entertainment throughout the day. There will be raffle prizes drawn hourly during the day.
The Cleveland Elementary students welcomed the new fire station to town on April 15. Each class from Cleveland Elementary toured the new facility. After the tours the students gathered for a group photo in front of the new fire station along with Jasper the antique fire truck from fire fighting days of the past.
The students prepared a sign of thanks for the contractor and engineer for the project. R&O Construction was the contractor for the fire station.
Carisa Mann and Lynae Christensen are organizing the Cleveland's Own booth at the Spring Expo. This booth is going to spotlight local crafters and artists. They will bring their items to the booth and organizers will sell the items for them. "We are so lucky to have so many talented people living in Cleveland, and feel this will be a great opportunity to display those talents. We hope this will be a fun experience for everyone and again appreciate your involvement," said Mann and Christensen.

Cleveland is excited about spring and is also featuring a Cleveland Clean-up Contest. You must live inside the Cleveland Town limits. Submit a before picture and an after picture of your project or clean-up. The prizes will be first place $300, $200 second place and $100 for third place.

At the April meeting of the Cleveland Town Council, the youth city council was sworn in to office. Madison Jensen, Trevor Rowley, Billie Jean Reed and Kirsa Merrell will act as co-mayors for this year. Jamie Jensen is the advisor of the group.
Cleveland and Elmo towns combine in the youth city council effort. The youth council is active in the events of the cities where they have helped with the Easter egg hunts, the fund raising car washes, and the lamb fry which is held during the Castle Valley Pageant each year.
Mayor Chris Parkins led the discussion concerning the water situation this year. "The water is low enough this year to be a concern at the beginning of the season. We will start off with restrictions. Most drainages in the area are at 20 percent of normal or lower. Irrigators are being allocated one-third allotments," said Mayor Parkins.
The city has sent cards to each residence explaining the secondary watering schedule. Residents may water between the hours of 6-10 a.m. or 6-10 p.m. but not both. It is very important to follow the restrictions now in order to ensure there is enough water to get through the summer. If there is not enough conservation, it is possible the secondary system could be shut off for a period of time.
Failure to comply with the restrictions will result in the secondary water being valved off. After May 1, all unpaid secondary connections will also be valved off. Following the first reading of the meters, more restrictions may be forthcoming.
Mayor Parkins announced he has been researching sources for funding for the sidewalk projects. The State doesn't have the amount of funding as in the past. Cleveland has put in for the Safe Pedestrian program which will help with funding. Mayor Parkins and Richard Murdoch attended a conference in St. George where they learned that 3M Company has a program which helps with safe access to schools. They are also doing research into this program.
The next meeting for Cleveland Town Council will be held May 10 at 7 p.m. in the town hall.

Mark:-- The easiest method would be to insert a piece of PVC pipe in the form boards that will be used to make the walls for your basement. Be sure it is below the frost line if you live in a colder section of the country, and make it large enough to allow for some insulation on the piping, as well as some means to prevent water entry into the basement. Lots of Luck...Bud..

"They can't come to the show, so we try and bring the show to them," said dancer Suzanne Dascher.
Ms. Dascher and two other "Richmondette" dancers, Alyssa Rowan and Jeanine Shipp, showed off their best high kicks and tap moves for a small group of youngsters in the pediatric unit at the Ocean Breeze hospital today. They also carried in big sacks of presents, donated by the cast and crew of the show.
"We love it. We love coming," Ms. Dascher said. "This is our second year, we're making it an annual thing."
The inspiration stems from the creator of the show, Rosemary Cappozalo, better known to decades of dancing school students as Mrs. Rosemary, who died in 2009. Her kindness and generosity in giving back to the community inspired the dancers to perform a few numbers at the hospital, Ms. Dascher said.
"I know she's smiling down on us," Ms. Dascher said.
Also smiling were the children in the "audience" -- a group of chairs gathered together in the hallways.
Brianna Osmani, 5, of Great Kills, was happy to get a present -- but she was most concerned that her friend and roommate at the hospital, Julianna Buonomo, 5, got one, too. Julianna was busy elsewhere in the hospital while the show went on.
"I want to give her a present," Brianna, who came to the hospital with pneumonia, said.
"Nice, it's very nice," said Nor Elmetwally, 12, who now lives in Tottenville but until recently lived in Egypt. Her father, Abdu Elmetwally, said Nor is in the hospital due to a rare muscular disease, but is doing much better after two weeks of treatment.
Nor and her father both snapped photos of the show, which helped cheer her up, Abdu Elmetwally said.
"Believe me, she's very happy, I can see that," he said.
Little Maria Tsodikov, just 9 months old, smiled throughout the performance. She had come to the hospital for a high fever.
"It was great," said her mother, Ludmila Tsodikov, of South Beach. "It was very nice for the kids, something new."
Ardi Bajri, 1, of Rosebank, tore open his gift with a little help from the dancers and found a toy truck that he delighted in waving around for all to see.
"He likes the toy," his mother, Dijana Bajri said.

The blend is the same as that of "Grande Année" and the R.D. uniqueness lies in its much longer ageing on the lees and - as its name implies - in its recent disgorging.
First created in the early 1960's, R.D. is the outcome of research developed by the House of Bollinger on the ageing of champagne on its lees. Not only does the wine retain its freshness but, through the extra contact with the lees, develops more complexity and subtlety.
Remaining for a minimum of eight years on its lees, the R.D. acquires a greater aromatic complexity and length. On the other hand, the recent disgorging - the date of disgorging is inscribed on the back label - gives the wine an exceptional freshness.
With 399 acres of vineyards situated in the best Grands Crus and Premiers Crus villages, Bollinger relies on its own estate for nearly two-thirds of its grape requirements, including the Pinot Noir that gives its Champagne its distinctive roundness and elegance. Bollinger is one of a select few houses that can control the quality of its grape supply so carefully.
Bollinger is renowned for its stringent quality standards. It adheres to traditional methods, including individual vinification of each marc and cru, barrel fermentation (it is the last Champagne house to employ a full-time cooper) and extra-aging on the lees prior to disgorgement.
Members of the British Royal Court were among the first to embrace Bollinger's unmistakable quality, and Queen Victoria made Bollinger the exclusive purveyor to the Court by Royal Warrant in 1884. Besides royalty, loyal devotees have included heads of state, celebrities and even famous fictional characters: Agent 007, James Bond, demands the exclusive Champagne Bollinger.

|In response to Re: Basement in floor plumbing - how many bends??
: I am laying out the drain and vent lines in our basement before the basement floor is poured. I was told by the plumbing inspector that the drains could not have a 90 degree bend. I have two lines that will require 2 45 degree bends about 6 feet apart to get around a large pad that has already been poured. Is that OK and is there any limit to how many 45's you can have in a drain line?
Your inspector said no 90 Degee bends?
Ask HER what is a lead bend considered?
Also if "drains" can't have a 90 degree angle WE had better never tell her that a trap is 180 degrees and thus doubly illegal is that what she is saying?
I would try to get another inspectors opinion who is not PMS that day.
I can understand no 1/4 bends or short sweeeps BUT to say no 90 degree angle something is wrong.

Hale boys basketball
The Huskies lost to unbeaten Sussex Hamilton, 58-28, on Friday, but the story of the night was what happened in the stands.
Hale junior Corey Stingley and Hamilton senior Aaron Zagorski had both died last week, and the student sections both dressed in the opponent's team colors as a tribute and a show of solidarity.
Stingley had been close with several members of the Hale boys squad, and some of them attended his funeral on Saturday.
The Huskies stayed within range at 22-16 at the half but the Chargers took command in the second half.
Derrick Waller scored 13 points for Hale, which slipped to 1-4 in the Greater Metro Conference and 6-5 overall. The Huskies visit Menomonee Falls at 7:30 p.m. Jan. 11.

Earning fifth were Rybakowicz in the individual medley (1:59.63); the 200 freestyle relay team of Rybakowicz, Shaun Lucchesi, Staszak and Fleischhacker (1:32.46); and the 400 freestyle group of Perez, Lucchesi, Staszak and Fleischhacker (3:22.49)

Greendale/Greenfield takes part in the Kenosha Bradford Invitational at 2 p.m. Jan. 12.

The Hawks opened 2013 on a strong note with a 65-43 victory over Cudahy on Friday night.
Ricky Santiago tallied 17 points, Travis Reszczynski 12 points and Keagan Blanks 10 points. Sonnie Wilbert added nine points and nine rebounds and Kyle Schahczinski four assists.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
The 2010 football season came to a close for the Emery High Spartans with a 42-13 loss on Nov. 5 against the Hurricane Tigers in Hurricane. Hurricane controlled the game both offensively and defensively from the opening kickoff.
With the win, Hurricane will now travel to the University of Utah Rice-Eccles Stadium this Friday to play a semi-final game against the Delta Rabbits. After an 0-4 start, Delta has now won eight straight football games including a 27-7 victory over the Desert Hills Thunder. Delta and Hurricane met in week two of this season with the Tigers winning 20-8.
In other action Juan Diego continued their winning ways with a 27-12 win over region 12 member Juab High. In a tougher than expected win; Juab stayed with the highly ranked Juan Diego team most of the game.
The other game was Judge Memorial's one-point win over Wasatch in Heber City. Judge won 35-34 for their second straight upset in the 3-A playoffs. Last week, Judge stunned Cedar in Cedar City. Judge was the number four seed out of their region and actually had to play a play-in game even to make the tournament and now they have won two in a row. Judge faced Juan Diego and Juan Diego won 13-7. Juan Diego defeated Judge in the season 21-7.
Against Emery, Hurricane went 70 yards in their opening offensive series to score and really never looked back from there. The Tigers amassed 378 yards of total offense and scored six of the first seven times they had the ball. Hurricane averaged, according to the program, about 30 pounds per man heavier than Emery and it showed.
Emery was able to have some success on offense as they scored twice and picked up yardage but were no match against the much bigger school. Taylor Cox scored on a 23-yard run and Colton Fasselin scored on a 5-yard run for the highlights of the game. Fasselin, Nathan Mecham and Clay Collard finished the game as the leading tacklers for Emery.
Emery finished the season with a 7-5 record and felt that they could play with anybody in any 3-A football except probably the Tigers. Juan Diego has won the last two championships by defeating the Hurricane Tigers both times. The Utah High School Activities Association, the governing body of high school sports in Utah, announced the proposed 2011 school year realignments for the high schools in Utah. After more than 20 years as a 3-A school, Emery will move back to 2-A status next season. Also returning to the 2-A ranks will be Manti, ALA and Richfield. Dropping to 3-A next season will be Orem, Spanish Fork, Payson and Tooele.
Hurricane continued to roll with a 31-point win over Delta, 38-7. Juan Diego defeated Judge in overtime in a boring game 13-7. Emery only lost by 29 points to the Tigers. The 3A state champion is again Juan Diego as they defeated Hurricane 10-7 at Rice Eccles stadium this weekend.

Skip to comments.Why Obama Does Not Address Connecticut Shootings
Posted on 08/09/2010 3:47:06 AM PDT by Scanian
A week ago, as is well enough known, Omar Thornton shot and killed eight of his coworkers while being escorted out of the building after having been terminated by his employer, a Connecticut beer distributor.
As I write this, President Barack Obama has yet to address this subject in any public way. He is not alone in his restraint. The media have soft-pedaled the motive -- the whole shooting, for that matter. Four days after the fact, my wife, who watches CNN and listens to NPR, had not heard about it. Unlike, say, Oklahoma City or even Columbine, the tragedy served no useful political purpose. Just the opposite.
"You probably want to know the reason why I shot this place up," Thornton told the dispatcher in his final 9-11 call. "This place is a racist place. They're treating me bad over here. And treat all other black employees bad over here, too. So I took it to my own hands and handled the problem. I wish I could have got more of the people." For a media desperately seeking a whiff of Tea Party violence, this was not welcome news.
To the degree that the media have covered the subject, they have largely taken Thornton at his word. "Beer warehouse shooter long complained of racism," read the headline of a typically sympathetic Associated Press article. The AP shies from concluding what it should have: The complaints may have been real, but the inspiration for those complaints ranged from the trivial to the imaginary.
During Thornton's well-paid tenure at Hartford Distributors, there had been no claims of "racial insensitivity" made by him or anyone else through the company's anti-harassment policy, the union grievance process, or state and federal agencies. The company asked Thornton to resign only after he had been caught stealing beer.
Given the higher threshold of proof HR managers require for protected classes, especially blacks -- "If you're white, male, and under 40," one HR exec joked to me, "we just kick your butt out" -- Hartford did not terminate Thornton until Thornton was caught on video stealing. It was not his first offense.
For Obama, this should have been a teachable moment. He could have shown black Americans the extraordinary safeguards the corporate world has put into place to protect their rights. He could have explored the historic roots of the deep-seated paranoia that undermines black self-confidence and explained the burden that paranoia puts on black ambition, but he has done no such thing. In that void, many blacks, and not a few whites, will insist on seeing Thornton as more of a martyr than a madman.
Author Shelby Steele, who is biracial himself, has seen these kind of scenarios played out around him from the time he was a boy in a still-segregated world. In his underappreciated 2008 book, The Bound Man: Why We Are Excited About Obama and Why He Can't Win, Steele dissected Obama's soul with more precision than anyone before or since, and he did so before Obama had won a primary. The book's subtitle, by the way, only seems to suggest a miscalculation on Steele's part. The "win" does not refer to the election.
Obama's dilemma, as Steele sees it, is that in his lifelong quest to seem an "authentic" black man, Obama feels compelled to exaggerate the state of black victimization. Rather than fixing problems, many of which are generated within the black community, the newly authentic Obama fixes blame.
When Obama has attempted to address moral issues, some more authentic black leader can be counted on to slap him down, as Jesse Jackson did in July 2008 when he threatened "to cut his nuts off." This posture does not make for a useful governing strategy. Instead, says Steele, it "commits [Obama] to a manipulation of the very society he seeks to lead."
Unfortunately, Obama did not look to Shelby Steele as a potential mentor. For guidance, he looked to people like Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright. The good Reverend relentlessly instructed his congregants, says Steele, "to think and act as if the exaggerated poetic truth of white racism is the literal truth." Writing well before anyone had seen those telltale videos, Steele asks a fundamental question: How could Obama "sit every week in a church preaching blackness and not object"?
Ayers, the man who in Dreams From My Father lent Obama his voice on the subject of blackness, gives all appearances of being white. Skin color aside, Ayers and Obama had much in common. Both grew up in comfortable white households, attended idyllic, largely white prep schools, and have struggled to find an identity as righteous black men ever since.
Although Ayers rages at "structural racism" in all of his books, that rage reaches a primal scream stage in Race Course: Against White Supremacy, a book he co-wrote with wife Bernardine Dohrn after Obama's election. One would think that victory would have eased the pain, but it has done no such thing for Ayers and any number of other radicals, black and white.
Among the eternally irritated tenured radicals is Tim Wise, author of Between Barack and a Hard Place: Racism and White Denial in the Age of Obama. Self-described as an "Angry White Male" in the title of one of his earlier works, Wise penned his jeremiad post-election precisely to deny whites even a moment of self-congratulation.
In his book, Wise quickly reassures his audience that the "deep-seated cultural malady" of racism has been "neither eradicated nor even substantially diminished by Obama's victory." To support his arguments, he marshals the most outlandish set of statistics I have seen in a book that was not self-published.
Wise, like all believers in institutional racism, sees remediation only through "productive anti-racism and social justice work." In a similar spirit, Ayers rejects any easy "end-of-white-supremacy narrative." He fears that Obama's victory may actually set back the cause of social justice by taking black concerns off the table to preserve the illusion of racial harmony.
For Ayers, social justice means nothing less than communism, albeit with a small "c." In 1993, a year before Dreams was finally written, Ayers would concede in an interview for the book Sixties Radicals, Then and Now, "Maybe I'm the last communist who is willing to admit it."
Listening to these radical voices, Steele believes, has kept Obama a "bound man." He is not allowed to extrapolate from his own experience and preach the value of education, marriage, family, hard work, and success. At exactly the wrong moment, Ayers and Wright crawled into Obama's head and shielded their charge from his better angels.
The duo had the chance to help Obama establish himself as his own man, but instead, they insisted that, to be authentic, a black man must rage at the machine -- which is what Omar Thornton did to the very end, violently. If Obama argued for redemption through self-help, his core supporters, black and white, would deny him his authenticity. For someone who has struggled so long and hard to establish an identity as a black man, that denial is scarier than defeat. This is why, implies Steele, "He Can't Win."
I think Michelle took his balls to Spain, maybe he'll comment when they get back.
She's got them in a lock box. She only gives them to him when she thinks he really needs them... which isn't often.
Another thread pointed this out. The 60's mentality with Weathermen, Black Panthers, "I'm OK, Your'e OK," etc spawned a mentality of entitlement and bad behavior.
Why would a Black Panther apologize for the shooting of white people by a black?
That is how sick and petty Obama and the Left are.
The only thing he has had out of this list is success, handed him to by whoever is funding and using him. His education is a mystery, his marriage is clearly a political alliance (his wife's family were big in black Dem politics in Chicago), his own family seems non-existent and he doesn't even seem to know what country he considers his family to be from (Kenya? Indonesia?), and his "hard work" seems to consist simply of floating around to star appearances and then getting back to the golf course. Even when he was at the Harvard Law Review, for which he was the only editor never to have written an article, he was famous for appearing very rarely at the office and expecting to be treated as a celebrity when he did.
I think the author is being a little unrealistic about Comrade Obama.
Hartford Distributors acted stupidly and BO/BS should have a beer summit.
Count on Rove to pick this up today on Rush.
Count on Rove to pick this up today on Rush.
They've all but excused (congratulated?)him for taking matters into his own hands
Omar might be a jihadist?
This is true. Steel wrote the book and lecture long before Obama won the primary.
No wonder conservative blacks realize that Obama has set race relations back 25 years.
This man is no leader. He has alienated half of the population. His only hanger ons are his uneducated black followers.
Giv this time... and he will fall like a house of cards.
Between the liberal pc media and the liberal pc govt, I am afraid we are on the verge of racial wars worse than anything in the 60's and 70's.
Mr. COOK THEM AT WACO:
If you are a criminal and black, we got your back.
But if you be stupid white, your DOJ-supported slaughter is tonight.
"Those nine dead whites acted Stupidly."
Bingo! Time to order some bumber stickers from Cafe Press
Because once the race card was played, there is no upside for him to talk about the shootings.
The cry of black racism has long served that sector of the population well. It has allowed individuals otherwise insignificant like the rest of us, their perpetual fifteen minutes of fame, and given the patina of celebrity to those who point fingers at largely imagined injustices. From what I have read about this case, Omar Thornton killed his fellow workers because he had been caught red handed, on video tape, stealing beer from his place of employment. One report indicated that this was not the first time. It is difficult to argue with a film depicting you stealing. Evidently, confronted with the truth, and no longer able to exist on the lies of racial injustice, was too much for Thornton. He, like anyone who blames society for their own personal sin, retaliated on those around him for his own bitterness and inner evil. It is time for the media and the observer to recognize that nearly every employer, particularly larger ones, literally bends over backwards to appease their black employees. It is simply too easy for blacks to use the race card and most human resources departments are loath to let that happen.
If this is the case it puts him in the company of race baiters like Jesse Hijackson and Al Sharptongue. Not he first time he's placed himself in questionable company.
Rove wouldn't touch this with asbestos mitts.
It doesn't affect him.
Henry Gates is one of ozero's buds.
The Ft. Hood shooter was muslim.
The Conn. case has no person ties to him, so he isn't going to notice it.
Consider a mulatto kid, bounced all around various family members and countrys, more than likely hit with the "Who's your daddy?" accusation, (maybe even "Who's your mama?").
THAT particular brand of identity crisis is (imo) what drove the kid to become articulate (Books have always been the gateway to/for the imagination and dreams)
So it is natural zero would be a nutless literate.
He's not Kenyen, African, Indonesian and certainly not American
He has no culture, no history of continuity and ...
no balls.
They're untouchable, but I'd like a dna match to those kids.
Just sayin'
Hope so.
I guess it would be easy enough to get a sample, I doubt anyone is policing his garbage when he goes out for a hamburger. If they are, he is more afraid than we thought.
I'll guess the SS cleans up every plate, table, napkin (etc) after any of those photo ops.
I forget which genius first said it but it was fairly common in the '60's to hear that "So-called 'crimes' by blacks against whites are really political acts."
This shooting is not a national-level event, for pete's sake! It's a tragedy, but get a grip here.
And now there are calls for the President to weigh in on the matter? That in and of itself is a request for a federal opinion on the matter. And if we ask for a federal opinion, then we ask for Federal government.
Maybe we'll not see any new legislation this time around, but the precedence has been set. Because of this, any new, local event can see Federal intervention... because we, the people, asked for it.
Well...they worked in a unionized warehouse—that alone should have caught 0's notice. But the color scheme of perp and victims surely held him back from speaking about it.
I don't think the complainers really want federal involvement: they are just pointing out 0's inconsistency.
I forget which genius first said it but it was fairly common in the 60s to hear that So-called crimes by blacks against whites are really political acts.I don't know who first said it but I know that Eldridge Cleaver wrote a book about it, saying that he switched from raping black women to raping white women for political reasons.
I dont think the complainers really want federal involvement: they are just pointing out 0s inconsistency.And the duplicity and slant and propaganda of the media.
9-11 call....there is no "11" on the tele itys nine-one-one,which is what they teach the kiddies so they dont fumble looking for an "11"
Then they are frightened indeed. And frightened equals vulnerable.
OMAR is a Middle-eastern name. Was he a muzzie?
I hang at a dunkin donuts to do computer work
the lead woman has a daughter in a bi-racial relationship. She knows and hangs out with Omar's girlfriend.
Omar was telling his family for about 2 years that he HAS PICTURES on his cell phone of the racist comments on the wall.
I asked her, WHO HAS SEEN THEM?
Supposedly, NO ONE in the family has seen them, bu they beieved him anyways.
Last night, I spoke to a local cop, told him this story, he told me he has a friend who drives a beer delivery truck and works for that same distributor.
The other black driver said that the family that owned that distributorship is the nicest family he ever worked for and he is stunned to ehar the accusations..
I truly believe that if that kid had those pictures then he would be a millionaire right now, not a mass murderer.
So let me get this straight...
This racist mongrel murders a bunch of white people for allegedly mistreating him, and then calls his victims racist!?
And the media let this white person hating mongrel say this on television?
No, I think it was the one obsessed with his skin color who had the problem, AS USUAL!
Given the higher threshold of proof HR managers require for protected classes, especially blacks -- "If you're white, male, and under 40," one HR exec joked to me, "we just kick your butt out" -- Hartford did not terminate Thornton until Thornton was caught on video stealing. It was not his first offense.But the Tea Party folks are the racists.
I'm going to quote your post, but I need to clarify something. Is the cop's friend the other black driver, or are they two different people? Thanks.
The cop is a former beer distributor truck driver
his friend is a black male beer distributor truck driver
The friend, the black male beer distributor truck driver, is the one who said that the family that owns the business are the nicest people
