A Bronx tale, of Fordham University and environs:
[T]he one nostalgic oasis of civility in the neighborhood was the old Eldorado Bar on Third Avenue, right under the Third Avenue El. The El was scheduled for demolition by 1972. The bar, which had been a tavern since 1890, had a high, plank ceiling supported by a row of wooden posts, with the big rotating fans that later became fashionable in Manhattan watering holes. It had a pool table with a ripped felt cover, and it served Italian hero sandwiches and hamburgers thrown together in a dingy kitchen in the back. The proprietor was Nick DeMaio, five-foot-six and stocky, in his late seventies, wearing a tie and sometimes an apron. He muttered unintelligible wisdom in a gruff voice with a cigar butt stuck in the side of his mouth.I'm happy to know something about the Eldorado, or the El D, as it was called, a bar I visited but once, with two friends, in the summer of 1981. The place was vast, like an empty stage, with a dull, smooth wood floor. The only people were my friends and I, some tough customers at the pool table, and the proprietor, a little old man wearing a white shirt, a black tie, a brown cigar, and a barkeeper's apron. The guy was a throwback, as my daughter Rachel would say. He must have been Nick DeMaio.
Nick had bought the place in 1922. Faking it as a flower shop in front, the place had been a speakeasy during Prohibition, but more than anything, with its long, solid mahogany bar and the mirror behind it, it resembled a saloon in the cowboy movies.
Raymond A. Schroth, Fordham: A History and Memoir (Chicago: Loyola Press, 2002), 326.
The Social Security Death Index lists one Nicholas DeMaio whose dates (1898–1993) and last residence (in the Bronx, just a short ride from the bar) make for the likely proprietor of the El D. I'm amazed to think that I was likely ordering beers from a man who had been serving them during Prohibition.

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a ... lovable animal-herding UFO! In Flock, players take control of an alien UFO that is tasked with herding animals to its mothership through a variety of interactive levels. Players will have to overcome the stubbornness of the temperamental beasts (this may require the use of fear, or amorous yearnings, etc.), as well as a series of environmental puzzles that must be solved using Flock's physics-based gameplay. By finding or making a passable route, players can herd the animals safely toward the ship. Solving the puzzles within the suggested time limit yields exciting rewards. But players can also take their time to find more hidden bonuses.
Flock uses a sophisticated physics engine that drives the challenging puzzle elements of the game. Whether it's using the Tractor beam to move obstacles out of the way, or the Depressor beam to stamp out crop circles to guide your herds, being an extraterrestrial has never been this addictive. Friends can also join in through co-op play. And when all the levels have been completed, users can make their own with the level editor that comes with the game.
Capcom encourages you to get the flock outta here in this clever downloadable game. Read More »

Encyclopedia of Life
Far from being dusty cabinets of curiosities, the natural history collections at UMass Amherst are proving to be biological treasure troves: essential evidence of the changing nature of ecosystems and the effect of environmental factors on individual species.
The campus natural history collections are receiving increased attention with an exhibit of botanical specimens now on view in the atrium of the Integrated Sciences Building. "William S. Clark as Collector: A Legacy at Two Agricultural Colleges" displays the former UMass president's botanical collections from Japan and creates a portrait of the mid-19th-century Sapporo region, a cross-section of life unaffected by invasive species, pollution, or climate change.
Collections document the physical history of a region, and as such are an important component of the land-grant mission of our university charter, says Betsy Dumont, professor of biology and director of the Massachusetts Natural History Collections.
The collections are a veritable time capsule: the oldest specimen is a buttercup collected in Sunderland in 1820. There are three extinct passenger pigeons and eggs from the 1920s, with thick, strong shells that tell of a time before pesticides. Also included in the collections is the entire Massachusetts State Cabinet, the state's natural history trove prior to 1860, which was entrusted to Massachusetts Agricultural College from the State House by legislative vote in 1866.
UMass Amherst scientists and students still collect specimens to track the responses of organisms to the environment. Items like the yacht-size skeleton of Staccato, an endangered female North Atlantic Right Whale killed by a boat strike off Cape Cod in 1999, continue to tell of the tenuousness and fragility of life.
Specimens are indicators of the ecosystem of which they were part, signifiers of "a complex web of interaction that is taking place all the time," says Dumont. They allow people to see how species evolve in response to environmental changes. They also suggest how human cultures were shaped through our relationship to the species we depended on for survival.
The collection and study of specimens has also played an important role in the development of UMass as a global institution. President Clark encouraged his students in Hokkaido to continue collecting, and their ongoing correspondence with their mentor helped cement the bond between Massachusetts Agricultural College and Sapporo Agricultural College, now Hokkaido University. The Clark collection, part of a larger celebration of Clark's legacy presented by the International Programs Office, puts that bond readily on display.
The natural history collections remain a vital resource for education. Dumont invites educators, students, researchers, and artists to take advantage of them so that they will remain an important conduit for communication between UMass Amherst and the wider world.
Betsy Dumont can be reached to discuss educational opportunities and uses of the natural history collections at firstname.lastname@example.com

Shedding some light on keeping houseplants happyPosted by
Indoor plants can certainly add beauty and enjoyment to your home — but only while they remain healthy. Many gardeners begin their struggle with houseplants in choosing the wrong location with regard to light.
The amount of light a plant requires will vary by type. When deciding where to place your plant in your home it will help to understand the window and light environment.
East facing windows receive cool morning sun, and are good choices for most houseplants. However, in the winter, east windows receive more sunlight than during the rest of the year.
North facing windows receive almost no direct light. North windows are great choices for houseplants that thrive on indirect light. Cyclamen would love this window, as would the peace lily, Chinese evergreen or pothos ivy.
South facing windows receive a lot of sunlight in the winter, but less in the summer. Special care may be needed in using south facing windows or you may simply need to move the plant in the summer. The parlor palm would look good in this location.
West facing windows receive the most sunlight of all. In fact, plants on the west side of your home may need to be protected from the sun. Plants like the Norfolk Island pine and weeping fig would find this window ideal.
These statements on windows can be greatly variable in your house, depending on the presence of by tall trees, blinds and curtains. Remember also that light is measured in foot-candles, and a bright sunny day outside may register as high as 10,000 foot-candles. Indoors it may drop of to the point of only 300 to 500 depending on where you take the measurement.
A few more pointers:
Light is certainly important but the leading cause of death to most houseplants comes from overwatering. Soggy soils can happen for a variety of reasons. First, and this is absolute, your container must have drainage holes. It is unbelievable to see how many beautiful houseplants are placed in expensive decorative containers that need to have holes drilled. Essentially your new plant is sitting in a bathtub and its days are numbered.
Proper drainage is essential for the preservation of houses and the health of plants as well. Septic Solutions provides help with all your drainage issues. Consult them today.
Selecting a good lightweight potting soil is paramount to your success. Cheap potting soil sold by the pound is heavy and simply holds too much water. I still find many unsuspecting gardeners using topsoil from the garden in containers. This is not a good idea from the standpoint of drainage, soil-borne diseases and insects.
Once you do have your plant in good soil you can determine whether or not your plant needs watering by gently pushing your finger to about 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep to feel if it is dry. Make this a regular practice before each water application.
If you are in the New Jersey or Eastern Pennsylvania Area and feel that you would like to have a free consultation with an interior plant expert for your home or office, contact Growing Expectations at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Design a system for this school
Let's get started!
85,000 kWh
kWh – short for kilo Watt hour is the typical units used to describe a quantity of energy i.e. 1kWh is enough energy to run a 1000 Watt kettle for one hour or a 10W LED light bulb for 100 hours.
of clean renewable electricity each year
734 t
t – short for tonnes, is the most commonly used unit for CO2 emissions despite being hard to visualize. At normal temperature and pressure a tonne of CO2 would require about 550 sqm. i.e. you would need about 5 tonnes of CO2 to fill an Olympic pool (25m wide x 50m long x 2m deep). A typical fossil fuel power station emits about 500g of CO2 per kWh of electricity produced.
of CO2 from ever entering the atmosphere during the lifetime of the system
students each year to live more sustainably
over the next 25 years
CO2 avoided
tonnes per year
Same as planting and looking after
hardwood trees for 40 years!
Same as taking
cars off the road permanently
"The big thing about educational sustainable development is, it's motivational. Young people feel part of their future and they feel more self-esteem, more engaged and powerful."
Plan a system yourself!
St James the Great Roman Catholic Primary School
Gather signatures and encourage your school to go solar!
The potential impact of your school going solar, shown on the petition form, is dependent on different factors like the size of your school's roof and electricity costs. You can choose from the following options to define the potential impact
Option 1- Use the default system size*
Option 2- Use your design
*Note: The default system we designed is a general estimation. For more accurate results, design a system yourself and add information about your school.

For the 52nd week of Dec. 27-31
Week # 52: 50 lbs of Rice
(If you can't accomplish this in 1 week, don't worry, just take your time and do it in steps.)
This week we are talking about rice. Rice is a grain that can easily be purchased and stored (although not easily grown in many regions). Rice is one of those grains which you can't just grow in your backyard. (i'm sure you can try)
Why do I store it?
It can store for longer than 10 years(if stored properly), can be cooked in numerous ways, is relatively inexpensive to purchase, and is easy to digest.
Rice is life for thousands of millions of people. It is deeply embedded in the cultural heritage of their societies. It is the staple food for more than half of the world population. In Asia alone, more than 2,000 million people obtain 60 to 70 percent of their calories from rice and its products. Ninety percent of rice is produced in Asia. It is the most rapidly growing source of food in Africa, and is of significant importance to food security in an increasing number of low-income food-deficit countries.
Rice is a staple item and EVERYONE on a diet or not should store rice. Rice can be spruced up with just about anything and taste great. It takes between 3 and 6 months for a rice plant to reach maturity, depending on the variety and where it is grown. So just think of how awesome this little grain really is. Scientists believe there are 140,000 varieties of cultivated rice, but no one knows the exact number. Rice is important to all. Three of the world's four most populous nations use rice as their staple food - China, India and Indonesia. Together, these countries have 2,500 million people.
Brown or White?
Brown rice is unpolished whole grain rice that is produced by removing only the outer husk. It becomes white rice when the bran layer is stripped off in the milling process. Compared with white rice, brown rice is more nutritious because it contains bran, which is a source of fibre, oils, B vitamins, and important minerals. Brown rice does tend to spoil faster because it has more of its natural oils. Of course, if you vacum pack it, it will last for a really long time. Brown rice is better for people suffering from diabetes as it takes the body longer to absorb it and doesn't cause GI crashes.
While rice provides a substantial amount of dietary energy, it has an incomplete amino acid profile and contains limited amounts of essential micronutrients. So you want to store more than just rice.
Rice is often the main source of employment, income and nutrition in many poor, food insecure regions of the world. In South Asia, where 530 million people live on less than US $1 a day, calories supplied by rice account for about 60-70 % of total food intake. Rice cultivation is the principal activity and source of income for about 100 million households in Asia and Africa.
In recent years, effective application of research advances has been slow, especially in areas of physical stresses, such as drought, flooding, salinity and acidity. During the same period, the rice-consuming population has continued to grow, while land and water resources for rice production are diminishing.
Brown and white rices store very differently. Brown rice is only expected to store for 6 months under average conditions. This is because of the essential fatty acids in brown rice. These oils quickly go rancid as they oxidize. It will store much longer if refrigerated. White rice has the outer shell removed along with those fats. Because of this, white rice isn't nearly as good for you, but will store longer. Hermetically sealed in the absence of oxygen, plan on a storage life for white rice of 8-10 years at a stable temperature of 70 degrees F. It should keep proportionately longer if stored at cooler temperatures. Stored in the absence of oxygen, brown rice will last longer than if it was stored in air. Plan on 1 to 2 years. It is very important to store brown rice as cool as possible, for if you can get the temperature down another ten degrees, it will double the storage life again.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Feb. 7 (UPI) -- A 105-year-old California woman believed to be Facebook's oldest user said she is trying to get 105,000 likes for a charity's page.
Edythe Kirchmaier, who is also California's oldest licensed driver and the oldest living former student of the University of Chicago, said Direct Relief, a Santa Barbara-based medical charity where she has been a volunteer for 40 years, set up a Facebook page for her in honor of her birthday last month, ABC News reported Thursday.
"I've been contacted by such wonderful people and received such nice messages and pictures from people all over the world," Kirchmaier said. "I'm so humbled by all the interest in me."
Kirchmaier said she is hoping her new Facebook friends will help popularize Direct Relief's fan page.
"I'm hoping to get 105,000 likes for the page," she said.

Must Read: Library Geek at West Warwick Public Library
AKA: Can you tell I'm catching up with LIS feeds I subscribed to ages ago, but hadn't read until this morning?
Laura, Library Geek in residence at the West Warwick (RI) Public Library, has taken her library's blog in a direction I haven't seen before -- she's focusing primarily on "the latest the library has to offer in technology, classes, and interesting computer tips and tricks." It's really smart to take an area of library staff members' professional & personal expertise and turn it into part of a library's service. It sets the library apart, so it's a great marketing tool. It's useful to patrons, so it's a great PR tool. And it's a way to encourage library staff to excel while exercising creativity, so it's a great employee recognition tool. Everyone wins!
My favorite category of Laura's posts are the ones about USB drives (more can be found here and here -- the most recent post is about how the library is selling mini-drives at low cost -- what a smart way to encourage patrons to let go of outdated & easily destroyed floppy disks).
I look forward to reading more about what librarians at West Warwick PL are doing to keep their patrons technologically up to date when classes resume in March.

New beekeeper is wondering if he could put his two hives in a wire 10x20 dog kennel. Would this obstruct the bees flight?
New beekeeper is wondering if he could put his two hives in a wire 10x20 dog kennel. Would this obstruct the bees flight?
I can't imagine why there would be any issue with this. Two hives should easily be able to manage inside an area this large.
If a dog kennel will keep a bear out, I'll eat it. But it won't obstruct the bee flight. I wouldn't recommend a dog kennel. Try a 10 foot brick or cement wall.
Before a bee stings, it will be sure to let you know that it will hurt them more than it will hurt you.
I'm in the process of building a bear fence now. Did a lot of research and found that there are really only two things that will have a chance of keeping out bears...a shark cage type structure or a high tension electric fence. Hope all my effort rewards me! :-)

I use a dog kennel to protect a few of my hives. No problems at all. I would recommend chaining it down. I placed large metal stakes at each corner and used 1/2 chain to chain the kennel to the stakes. This way if the bear were to attempt to move or disturb the kennel it would not move much and hopefully deter from the hives.
i have bears i , i know because i have seen them. i have an electric. does it keep them out i dont know. in combanation with the fence, through the season i always leave my shirt or t shirt hanging in a bush, or tree, or on a nail on the barn near the hives. always changeing the place or posision of the shirt or t. trying to always leave the impresion and scent to any animal comeing around that i am there. when i was a kid my father yoused to always leave his t shirt on the handle of the shovel in the garden in a different place every day he would work in the garden. he said it helped to keep the deer out. so i practice that in my bee yard . so far i have not had a visit from any bears. so far the biggest danger to my bees are ME.
thats the way i roll.
I have had trouble with bears at one of my locations. We did exactly this, a 6 x 8 kennel that was staked to the ground and screwed into the adjacent barn. I don't feel it is bear 'proof' but it hopefully works long enough until the dogs get out to bark at it. Three years now and no trouble with the bears yet (knock on wood). I have not seen any issues with the flight path. If you are tall you might find it too short. Mine is 6' tall and so am I so I bump my head inside on it a lot. Got it off Craig's list.
A couple of years ago there was an article in Bee Culture about Zia Bees who have a queen rearing operation in AZ and MI. In MI they used the same galvanized fencing that is used with dog fences and it was framed with posts and sank two feet in the ground, no electric fence. They said it worked because when bees (oops I meant bears!) tried to climb or pull on it their claws would get stuck in between the wires and it distressed them.

Hi: Take a look at the picture in the attached thread ( post #20). An electrified kennel works for me. I now have four hives inside over wintering. The power's off until March when the bears become active again around here.

I resemble that remark!..so far the biggest danger to my bees are ME.

This is an interesting topic for a new beekeeper.
Does using an electric fence also electrify the bees landing on the metal fence as well?
no, they have to be grounded the bees are fine
I would second that a freestanding chain link would be very little deterrent. It might help if there were LOTS of other things for the bear to feed on, sort of a "well this fence will take me 10 minutes but the trash can 200 yards down is smelling good too...". But a determined bear will get through very easily. Electrify or reinforce a-la Zia, or both. Our bears amaze me with their determination and strength, and we just have little black bears!

Third time!Ah, le Stade de France! So big, so great (even if our seats were far...). Opening and closing with vertigo (lights in, lights out), a truly great performance! I cried during "Running to stand still" which is my all time favorite song! We left the stade floating, we sang in the crowded subway, we spoke about the concert for hours and days. For most of my friends it was their first U2 concert, for me, it's always the first time!

General FAQs
Fishing Licenses FAQs
Can I obtain a fishing license online?
Oftentimes you can buy a fishing license through your state's fishing department website. You will most likely need to create an account on the webpage and have a printer nearby to finalize your transaction. Make sure to also have a valid credit card on hand, as no other form of payment is accepted by state departments online. Take note that, as proof of your residency, you may be required to enter your driver's license number. Learn more about applying for a fishing license online.
What kinds of fishing permits are available for purchase?
In a general sense, a good number of states offer the following types of fishing licenses: a regular fishing license and a commercial fishing license. Depending on where you reside, you may also have the option to get a saltwater license to fish, if you are by coastal waters. In addition to these permits, you may be required to buy a fishing stamp, depending on the specific type of fish species you intend to catch.
How long is a fishing license good for?
A regular fishing permit is often valid for the period of a full year. However, you may also have the option to obtain a license to fish that is good for 24 hours or 72 hours, for example. In some instances, a weekly fishing license or a lifetime license may also be available. Lifetime licenses to fish are the most suitable option for those anglers who intend to fish for the duration of their lives. Keep in mind that if you would like to continue fishing after the expiration date of your current licensure, you will be required to get a new permit to fish.
What are the costs associated with a license to fish?
The fees related to a state fishing license may vary, depending on a few factors. But senior residents and military veterans can usually get a fishing license that is free of charge, as long as they can present official documentation that supports their residency or military service. Resident licenses to fish are often more affordable than nonresident licenses. The most costly licenses are for those who would like to get lifetime credentials.
How can I replace a lost fishing license?
In the event that you have lost your fishing license or it was stolen, the most common way to obtain a duplicate is through your state's fishing department. You may be required to make an in-person visit to a nearby office or to contact a licensed agent directly. Depending on where you reside, you may also have the option to order a fishing permit replacement online. But, to be sure, it is important that you double check with your state department first, as you may also need to bring in certain documentation, such as your driver's license or ID card.
Boating License FAQs
Are there any requirements for getting a boating license?
Yes. Depending on your state of residence, you will have to meet certain eligibility requirements. The main requirement that most states focus on is age. In order to obtain the necessary licensure for operating a boat in your state of residence, you will have to provide proof that you meet the age requirement, which is typically between 14 and 18 years of age.
Do I have to enroll in a boating class in order to get a license?
Yes. One common thread throughout the United States is the requirement of enrolling in a boating safety class in order to obtain a state's boating certification (often referred to as a license). These classes have a primary focus on safety procedures that always need to be taken into consideration when operating a boating vessel, and in order to complete these classes, you must successfully pass a final exam at the conclusion of the course.
Is a boating license all I need to operate a boat in my state?
No. In order to operate a vessel in your state of residence, you must also obtain the necessary boating registration documents. Just like motor vehicles, boats need to be registered with the appropriate state department in order to be operated legally on state waters. Typically, the registration process can be completed at the same office where you register motor vehicles in your state.
What items should I always keep on board my vessel?
There are a number of items that should always be on your boat. They include the registration documents and other relevant state paperwork, safety equipment (such as life vests, first aid kits, etc.) and a supply of water/food for all of your fishing trips. Always set aside some time before a trip to prepare effectively.
Is there a difference between a boating license and a boating safety certificate?
Depending on your state of residence, you may only need one or the other. Certain states only require you to have a boating safety certificate to operate a vessel legally, and these certificates are often called "licenses" incorrectly, though they serve the same purpose. Other states, however, require you to obtain the official "boating license."
Gun License FAQs
Do I need to take a gun safety course to get a gun license in my state?
Yes, you must complete a state-approved gun safety course in order to apply for a gun license in your state. Gun safety courses must be completed prior to your firearm license application submission.
How do I apply for a gun license in my state?
To apply for a gun license in your state, you must first meet the minimum national requirements for owning a gun. Applicants must complete a state-approved gun safety course prior to filling out the firearm license application. Once the application is complete, submit it to your state's gun regulation agency, along with the required fees and identification.
What are the minimum requirements for getting a gun license?
There are a few national requirements for getting a gun in the United States. Requirements include:
- You must be 21 years old or older.
- You must have completed a state-approved gun safety course.
- You must be a U.S. citizen or legal resident of the country (non-citizens must present their Permanent Resident card during the application process).
- You must show firearm competency.
- You must not have a criminal record.
- You must have no record of substance abuse.
Is my gun license valid in other states?
Depending on which state you reside in, your gun license may be valid in many other states. When applying for your gun permit, inquire as to which states accept your license as valid and which do not so you do not run into any legal hang-ups during your travels.
How do I renew my gun license if it has been lost or stolen?
Regardless of the state you live in, all gun licenses have a set expiration date. At the time of your license expiration, you will need to contact the gun licensing agency where you originally applied for your license. They will supply you with the license renewal materials. At this point, you may submit your credentials and renewal application using the same method you used to submit your original gun license application.
Hunting FAQs
Do I need to take a hunters safety course in order to get a hunting license in my state?
Yes. All throughout the United States, hunters safety classes must be completed in order for applicants to obtain their desired hunting permits and stamps. Failure to take this specific course will result in the rejection of your hunting license request, thus requiring you to start over.
How can I apply for a hunters license in my state?
Depending on your state of residence, you may be able to buy hunting licenses in a variety of ways, including online (through your state department's portal), by mail, by phone or in person. Choose the option that is most convenient for you. Make sure to also have any type of official documentation and payment for fees on hand.
Does my hunting license allow me to hunt for every kind of animal in my state?
No. Different states have different limits and regulations on hunting licensure. Certain animals may be considered "prohibited species," whereas other animals may be legal to hunt, so long as you have the necessary hunting permit/stamp. Keep in mind that if you do hunt for any type of prohibited species, you will be subject to serious consequences.
Can I hunt in a state if I am not a resident?
Yes. States typically offer various short-term hunters license options, such as one-day and one-week passes, to those who do not meet residency requirements. In order to receive issuance of a short-term hunting license, make sure to get in touch with your state/hunting wildlife department to find out the available methods you have to apply.
What do I do if I lose my license to hunt?
In the event your hunting credentials are lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed, contact your state hunting/wildlife department to order a hunting license replacement. You may have to make an in-person visit to a local office to complete the process. At the time of your replacement request, you may be asked to present your state driving license or another type of identification.
Recreational Vehicles FAQs
What are the most common types of recreational vehicles?
Depending on where you live, your state's driver's license bureau will have its own definition of recreational vehicles. In a general sense, however, a recreational vehicle may consist of any of the following: a luxury RV bus, a truck camper, a van camper or a conventional RV. Take note that some states also include off-highway vehicles as part of the recreational vehicle umbrella, so to speak.
Who needs to get a recreational vehicle license?
RV licensing requirements vary from state to state and depend on the type of RV you have. Many states do not require licenses for off-highway vehicles, but require them to be operated on private property and not public roads. However, for campers you will need to get a license to drive. Most states allow drivers to operate an RV using their regular class E driver's license. A few select states require drivers to get an additional RV license endorsement. If the state you reside in requires an RV license endorsement, you will need to visit your local department of motor vehicles office. There you can complete the RV license endorsement application, pass the required tests and pay your endorsement fee.
Does my hunting license allow me to hunt for every kind of animal in my state?
Some states require drivers to apply for a special license in order to operate a recreational vehicle. If this is the case where you live, then you will need to contact your local DMV to find out the specifics. In any case, you must be ready to present certain documentation as proof of identity and residency. Additionally, you may need to pass a road skills test, as this will help confirm that you are a safe driver and can operate a recreational vehicle with ease.
How do I register my recreational vehicle in my state?
Depending on the type of recreational vehicle you own and your state's regulations, you may or may not need to register your RV. Many state motor vehicle departments consider off-highway vehicles (OHV) recreational vehicles for registration purposes. In these cases, registration is typically not required. However, conventional RVs must all be registered in the state you reside in. To register your vehicle, visit a local motor vehicle department with the title for your vehicle along with your identification and the required registration fees.
What are the recreational vehicle insurance requirements?
Almost every state in the US requires all motor vehicles to be properly insured. Minimum requirements typically include a level of liability insurance to protect against bodily injury and property damage. The amount and type of insurance required varies from state to state and also depends on your vehicle type. Other factors that can affect your insurance requirements are whether or not the vehicle is owned or under a lease. To find out more about minimum liability insurance requirements in your state, contact your state department of motor vehicles.

The Optimism of David McGraw
Head of Ops Heads into Retirement with a Positive Outlook
By Lynn Yarris, 486-5375
David McGraw is retiring as Berkeley Lab's Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Associate Laboratory Director (ALD) for Operations on June 27. His nearly 18 year-tenure here has been marked by a string of stiff challenges met and matched. Despite the difficulties faced, in taking stock of his career at the Laboratory McGraw says that he has been and continues to be an optimist.
He came to the Laboratory in January, 1991 from Apple Inc., named by then Berkeley Lab Director Chuck Shank to be the director of the Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) Division. His appointment came in the wake of Department of Energy (DOE) Tiger Team safety reviews, a rough period for the Laboratory as there were more than 1,000 findings that had to be corrected. As head of EH&S, the burden of response to the Tiger Team findings fell upon him.
"We cleared every last one of them," said McGraw, who developed a safety "scorecard" that let other division directors at the Laboratory know how they were or weren't performing in their respective safety oversight functions.
Said Director Shank at that time, "David led a revolution at this Laboratory in understanding our perceptions and our responsibilities for integrating EH&S into the work we do."
In 2005, McGraw played a central role in the University of California's successful competition for the management contract of Berkeley Lab. The Lab had gone 75 years without competition for its management contract and then it was thrust into the role of test-case for the awarding by DOE of future "performance-based" contracts.
"What I found amazing is that this sort of competition had never been done before, it was unplowed territory," McGraw said at the time. "We didn't really know whether or not we had a competitor, so we decided to compete against our own high standards, and it was done remarkably well."
Following the winning of the contract, Steve Chu, who'd succeeded Shank as Berkeley Lab director only a few months earlier, announced his new management team and in doing so added a new title for McGraw, that of ALD for Operations. This past spring, as ALD for Ops, McGraw's leadership was again a big factor in the contract performance grades that resulted in the DOE Berkeley Lab Site Office recommending that the Laboratory's management contract with UC be extended.
McGraw credits much of his success to having had on his management team "great people who take professional pride in their work." He has always been a strong proponent of what he calls "risk-informed decision-makers," which he defines as "individuals who are not afraid to take risks that are based on knowledge." The current leadership of Ops, whom he recruited, consists of the type of knowledgeable risk-informed decision-makers that he prizes.
"There is no genius to leading people," he once said. "You get the best and brightest that you can . . . make clear what your expectations are, and get out of their way. And if you're really smart, hire people who are better than you."
Also crucial to his success at the Laboratory, he says, has been the strong support of Berkeley Lab leaders, such as "Chuck Shank, Klaus Berkner, Sally Benson and Steve Chu," and the "opportunities" that have been provided to him by the Lab's sponsors in DOE's Office of Science.
"This convergence of fine people, the Laboratory Director's support, and sponsor opportunities gives me great cause for optimism about the future of Operations at this Laboratory," said McGraw.
To the list of his proudest accomplishments during his career here, in addition to his roles in winning the 2005 management contract and the extension that followed three years later, McGraw reserves a prominent spot for the role he played in the development and implementation by DOE of a model for Integrated Safety Management (ISM), in which safety programs were made much more effective by closely integrating them with the work and linking them to safety standards and solid business principles.
"I would like to see all of Operations managed according to good business principles as opposed to DOE orders," McGraw said. "I don't fool myself into thinking that this is a panacea, because even ISM can become overly bureaucratized, but I am optimistic if I take the long view. This approach makes sense and would be fiscally a more responsible use of the nation's resources.
McGraw is not only optimistic about the future of Operations at Berkeley Lab, he is also optimistic about the future of Berkeley Lab itself. The principal reason behind this optimism is Director Chu.
"It's funny, but it seems like the Laboratory always seems to find the director that it needs for the times," he said. "Chuck Shank was a wonderful manager when that was exactly what the Laboratory needed. Steve Chu is a visionary, which is what we all need now. Those who are going to be here working under Steve's direction in the coming years should consider themselves very lucky for they're going to be a part of history."
History has been one McGraw's great interests in life, as has travel. In retirement, he and his wife Debbie plan to combine these two interests. They are currently enrolled in Italian classes, and a French immersion class is next. A long trip, from the island of Sicily up the Italian boot to Tuscany, is in the immediate future.
When asked how he would like to be remembered by the Laboratory community, McGraw had this to say, "I hope they will say I was tough and had high standards, but that I was fair and that my door was always open."

Welsh rugby clubs are leading the way by providing guaranteed game-time for all young players as part of the 'Half A Game' initiative from this season.
More than 14,000 children across 711 teams have signed up to the Half A Game scheme which ensures every child plays a minimum of half a game at clubs, schools and festivals.
The initiative provides equal playing opportunities for boys and girls of all abilities from U7s to U16s, with an emphasis on the enjoyment of rugby participation rather than the results.
With participation in rugby at minis and juniors level at an all-time high in Wales, Half A Game is a proactive drive to continue to recruit and retain more youngsters in the game.
Half A Game is part of Welsh Rugby's overarching remit to engage more people, more often, with more enjoyment and more success.
"Rugby must be fun when it comes to getting and keeping children involved in the game," said WRU Regional Rugby Manager Ben Rose who heads up the scheme.
"Half A Game is our commitment to creating an enjoyable playing environment for all children regardless of their gender, size, playing background or ability.
"Last season saw more minis and juniors playing rugby but the greater challenge for Welsh Rugby is retaining these children and their families in the game for the long-term.
"By providing equal playing opportunities and focusing on the enjoyment of taking part rather than winning matches, we've seen first-hand how players can be more engaged both on the pitch and from the sidelines.
"Young players are more likely to keep coming back and have a greater chance of reaching their playing potential. They also continue to benefit from rugby values such as teamwork and building confidence and new friendships."
Children at Mumbles will be some of the first to experience the positive effects of the scheme when they open the clubhouse for their own Half A Game Festival on Saturday.
WRU's Head of Rugby Participation, and volunteer minis coach at Mumbles, Ryan Jones has supported Half A Game as a positive step towards a more inclusive and accessible grassroots game. He added:
"Half A Game is our recommended framework for a positive and engaging rugby environment, which is so important for the grassroots game to thrive in Wales. To see so many teams signed up at the start of the season is testament to the enthusiasm and passion of the kids, coaches and parents involved."
The official launch of Half A Game comes following a successful pilot scheme of 25 teams during the 2015/16 season. With more than 700 teams already involved, you can find out more and register your team at wrucoachinglocker.co.uk/half-a-game

The cost and price pest control : ANTS OF ALL TYPES WILL ATTACK THE HOME ON THE HUNT FOR NOURISHMENT - Docs.com
Most ants only come into your home to look for food. They are attracted to anything that's sweet and sticky, which is why you find ants in kitchen cupboards or areas where food is kept. With that in mind it's important to not leave temptation in their path. To get rid of ants you must remember to: Clean up - food and liquid spillages immediately. Sweep up - any food crumbs from under your kitchen appliances and units. Food storage- in airtight containers wherever possible. Pet owners - clear away any food that isn't eaten right away. Block off - the entry points for ants by sealing all cracks and crevices around doors and window frames. In the garden - keep compost enclosed and make sure all rubbish bins have tightly sealed lids. 98115

3. I click on the Polygonal Lasso Tool, hold Shift, and that allows me to add a tail to my bubble.
4. Then I fill the bubble in with black.
5. Then I go to Select-->Modify-->Contract, and put in how many pixels thick I want my speech bubble (usually 2 works fine).
6. Then I erase the inside of the new contracted bubble, and I'm left with a 2-pixel thick speech bubble!

Delivering the weekly White House address in place of President Barack Obama, the mother of a child killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings said the nation needs new gun laws "before our tragedy becomes your tragedy."
Francine Wheeler, whose 6-year-old son, Ben, was one of the 20 children killed by a gunman Dec. 14 at the Newtown school, is the first person outside the administration to give the address during Obama's presidency.
"And as a citizen, I'm here at the White House today because I want to make a difference and I hope you will join me," Wheeler said in the recorded audio and video address released Saturday morning.
Wheeler was part of a group of Newtown victims' relatives who traveled to Washington, D.C., this week to lobby senators who are considering legislation to expand background checks for firearms buyers, increase funding for school safety and set new penalties for gun trafficking.
They flew from Connecticut with Obama, who delivered a speech April 8 at the University of Hartford to urge action on measures to curb gun violence.
Describing her son's "love of fun and excitement" and his prowess at soccer and piano, Wheeler urged citizens to pressure their senators.
"Please help us do something before our tragedy becomes your tragedy," Wheeler said, with her husband, David, at her side. "We have to convince the Senate to come together and pass common sense gun responsibility reform that will make our communities safer and prevent more tragedies like the one we never thought would happen to us."
She said the April 11 vote in the Senate to allow debate to proceed on the gun legislation was "only a start." Supporters overcame opposition from Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and other Republicans trying to keep the measure from coming to the Senate floor.
The bill faces an uncertain fate in the House, where Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, has said he won't make a commitment to bring it to a vote.
"They haven't yet passed any bills that will keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people," Wheeler said. "And a lot of people are fighting to make sure they never do."
The Republicans' weekly address focused on the budget. U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski of Indiana criticized Obama's spending plan, which proposes tax increases on wealthier Americans and reduces spending on entitlement programs. She said the Republicans offered a better plan, which she said would balance the budget in 10 years.
"The president's budget isn't a compromise; it's a blank check for more spending and more debt," she said.

I'm probably the only person in Denmark who misses snow. It makes me feel alive and I love the way it transforms flat and boring landscapes into breath-taking scenery.
You may be surprised to learn that it doesn't actually snow much in Denmark. Snow-less winters are pretty common in our neck of the woods, which is rather depressing.
So when I woke up this morning and discovered that it has been snowing almost all night, I was ecstatic. I grabbed my HTC Magic Android phone and went for a long walk. Why not my Nikon D60, you might ask. Well, I really wanted to enjoy the snow instead of worrying about taking photos.
By the time I reached downtown (a 6km walk), the winter was pretty much over. But I did snap a few photos that will hopefully help me get through the rest of the Danish winter.

View of storage shed from the parking lot. Tin will become the 'canvas' for a mural.
Storage shed from the 'business' side.
The last view of the storage area before it gets filled up.
On Tuesday, I spent a few hours finishing up the major building on the storage shed for donated bikes.
During the process, many of the students got involved. Probably the most fun and surprising help came from a couple of the female students who took ownership of getting the corrugated tin walls wired to the cyclone fence. They insisted that it was their project so I saved the work for them when they had time to help. They did a great job and the wall looks great.
We are looking at the wall as a palette for a mural. Another student is a graffiti artist and he is going to bring some design ideas for painting the tin wall. It's a 8 foot high by almost 30 foot space that will hopefully get painted in a colorful way that promotes the activities of the Green Academy. Those activities include the garden, the chickens, the bicycle restoration project and other "green" activities. It will be fun to watch the mural take shape.
As I've been working at the school, I'm slowly getting to know some of the students and learning about their lives. There are a number of the students who are "high-risk". They are not very committed to academics, they have had negative encounters with authorities and I can see that if they don't find a productive outlet for some of their energy, there is a real possibility of bad outcomes. On the other hand, some of these same students are fascinated by bicycles. I see real potential for positive outcomes driven by engagement with bicycles. Hopefully, the electric bicycles will add another level of attraction for some of these students and get them involved in building better lives for themselves and bicycles that will get more people out of cars.
Next week, I will start with electric bikes. I haven't quite figured out how to get the program going since there are significant financial hurdles to building e-bikes. I've been toying with a few ideas but I think I will see where the interest is first and then figure out how to fund the building of e-bikes. One model is to pre-sell electric bikes based on allowing the use of one of my existing bikes. Another model is to cover the cost of building a bike or two and loaning them out as rewards for students who are helpful. Getting students to raise enough money to buy a conversion kit for their own bike is another model. We'll see what unfolds.

Stevens Professor Rainer Martini Develops New Laser Technology
Dr. Rainer Martini – Director of the Ultrafast Laser Spectroscopy and Communication Laboratory and Associate Professor of Physics and Engineering Physics at Stevens Institute of Technology – has developed technology for frequency and amplitude modulation in laser light that results in clear, ultrafast optical free space communications. Not limited by a physical conductor, a high speed optical system that is stable enough would allow satellites to one day convert to laser technology, resulting in a more mobile military and super-sensitive scanners, as well as faster Internet for the masses.
A laser's beam must be optically modulated in order to transmit large amounts of data, and Stevens researchers realized optically-induced amplitude modulation (AM) of mid-infrared lasers a few years ago. Now, Dr. Martini and other Stevens researchers have developed a technique to optically-induced for frequency modulations (FM) of the beam as well, resulting in a signal that is disrupted significantly less by environmental factors like dust and fog. The new research stands to revolutionize communications, rendering environmental barriers meaningless and allowing mobile units not tied to fiber optic cable to communicate in the range of 100 GHz and beyond – the equivalent of 100 gigabytes of data per second.
Electronic modulation of middle infrared quantum cascade laser is limited to 10 GHz, and optical modulation of frequency and amplitude offers a viable alternative. Last year, Dr. Martini and his team developed a method to optically induce fast amplitude modulation in a quantum cascade laser – a process that allows them to control the laser's intensity. Their amplitude modulation system employed a second laser to modulate the amplitude of the middle infrared laser – in essence using light to control light. But the team still faced the problem of reliability, so they turned to optical frequency modulation.
"FM transmitted data is not affected by the environmental elements that affect AM data," Dr. Martini said.
The recent success allows modulating specifically the emission frequency of the laser, allowing a much more reliable transmission. This optical approach has a number of applications, including frequency modulation in a middle infrared free space communications system, wavelength conversion that will transform a near infrared signal directly into a middle infrared signal, and frequency modulation spectroscopy.
"Dr. Martini's creativity and persistence have yielded great advances in laser optics," said Dr. Michael Bruno, Dean of the Schaefer School of Engineering and Science at Stevens. "As the first person to explore amplitude and frequency modulation, he opened the doors to faster, clearer, free space communications. Today, he continues to advance a field he created."
As pioneers into the evolving world of free-space optical communications, Dr. Martini and his team continue to search for new solutions in translating research into every-day reality. One area of focus could take the lasers below ground by integrating the system into existing fiber optics networks, enabling high speed laser communications both above and below ground. The team is also developing a phase control detector to complement their recently-created phase control emitter, which will create an entirely phase-controlled system and enable researchers to manage every aspect of the system. Such a control is well know from radar and radio systems – yet unprecedented in optical systems. This could open a whole new world of possibilities including enhanced chemical and biological detection by up to 1,000,000 times, and facilitate integration into products.
For Dr. Martini, it is all a matter of perseverance as he explores this new frontier.
"There is proof of concept that we can do it. The question now is what limitations are there," he said.

Ginbot 7 Popular Force fundraising taskforce in Norway- Press release
Ethiopia and its citizens have never been endangered and humiliated as under the rule of the woyane junta. The current problem of the country and its people is not only a question of lack of basic human rights, but it is a matter of life and death to the people and existence of Ethiopia as a sovereign country.
To fight the enemy which is responsible for the aforementioned situation and avert the danger, Ethiopians are wedging armed struggle and this is increasingly becoming the only and appropriate alternative.
Hence, Ginbot 7 Popular Force (G7PF) is established by freedom-loving Ethiopians, comprising youngsters, intellectuals and others. The main objectives of this force, as described on its website, are contributing to make the Ethiopian people owner of political power and establishing strong, sovereign and democratic Ethiopia. G7PF is working to remove TPLF by force and to create a peaceful transition period enabling establishment of non-partisan and constitutional defense, police, security, judiciary, etc. institutions which are crucial for a healthy playground for different political parties aspiring power in the country.
Among the current G7PF members are many intellectuals who joined this force abandoning their relatively comfortable living, families and professional jobs. This is one of the advantages of the G7PF compared to traditional armed struggles in Ethiopia where mainly farmers and other non-intellectuals are the main components of foot soldiers. Thus, the struggle of Ginbot 7 Popular Force gets skillful leadership on the ground and its members at the front properly understand why and whom they are fighting for and paying sacrifices.
Appreciating the efforts and the good intentions of G7PF, we Ethiopians in Norway have decided to support the force and established ad hoc committee (taskforce) mandated to coordinate a one-time fundraising in Oslo. As from the date of its establishment the taskforce is working on various activities and scheduled 28th of September, 2013 the date for the grand fundraising event in Oslo.
During this event, on 28 of Sep., 2013, representatives of the G7PF leadership will be present and the program of the event comprises, discussions, fundraising and entertaining activities.
Therefore, the taskforce herewith kindly invite all Ethiopians and other nationals both from Norway and neighboring countries to take part in this event and support G7PF.
Freedom, justice and democracy to all Ethiopians!
Ethiopia shall prevail!

Puzzle of the Day – Glow Zone T-Rex
This week's jigsaw puzzle of the day invites you to step into the glow zone by assembling the T-Rex jigsaw puzzle. Your child can have fun both during daytime and by night with this 100 piece, 15 x 11 inches T-Rex jigsaw puzzle that glows in the dark. You can take advantage of this opportunity and introduce him into the lost world of the giants that once ruled the earth – the dinosaurs. To increase your child's interest you can quiz him on facts about the dinosaur that slowly takes shape in front of his eyes. The T-Rex or Tyrannosaurus Rex, rex meaning "king" in Latin, was a bipedal carnivore and according to some experts, a scavenger. If you think that your child is too young for Jurassic Park, you might take it step by step and begin by introducing the characters before the actual action. And what character defines the lost world best? Its predator king, the T-Rex, of course. Tell your little ones all there is to know about this king of dinosaurs, and do not insist too much on the dangerous aspects of the encounter with such a beast. They might get scared and, with a big T-Rex that glows in the dark, that's definitely not something that you want, especially during the night. Should you portray him as their protector though, they will feel a lot more assured and perhaps have the sweetest dreams of their lives.

Union Pacific Railroad and Operation Lifesaver Urge Professional Photographers to Stay Safe, Stay Away From Train Tracks
Spring, Texas, April 16, 2013
As warmer weather arrives, Union Pacific Railroad and Operation Lifesaver, the rail safety education nonprofit organization, are urging professional photographers to refrain from taking photos of high school seniors, wedding parties, and other subjects on train tracks or trestles.
Last year, more than 800 people were injured or killed while trespassing on railroad property in the U.S., according to preliminary Federal Railroad Administration statistics.
"As part of our UP CARES initiative, we want to remind photographers that walking on or near railroad tracks is extremely dangerous because you never know when a train will come along," said Dale Bray, Union Pacific director – public safety. "We urge professional and amateur photographers alike to set the right example for others by adhering to the safety guidelines."
A teacher that taught art, along with photography, was struck and killed by a train while taking photos on the tracks late in 2012. In response to tragic and preventable incidents like this, Operation Lifesaver (www.oli.org) has worked with Professional Photographers of America on rail safety education outreach to the professional photographer community.
"Trackside settings have become popular for senior, wedding, and family portraits. But photographers need to know the laws and the safety ramifications of staging a photo shoot near train tracks," said David Trust, chief executive officer of Professional Photographers of America (PPA). "PPA applauds Operation Lifesaver programs that educate photographers about the danger to themselves and their clients of working near tracks. "
Union Pacific is committed to public safety through various outreach channels such as community events, media outreach, law enforcement partnerships, employee resource groups and Operation Lifesaver. The UP CARES (Union Pacific Crossing Accident Reduction Education and Safety) public safety initiative brings together communities in a collaborative and caring effort to promote railroad grade crossing and pedestrian safety.
UP CARES activities include:
- Grade crossing enforcement with local, county and state law enforcement agencies;
- Safety trains that provide local officials a firsthand look at what locomotive engineers see daily while they operate trains through a community and
- Communication blitzes that educate the community at events or media outreach.
Operation Lifesaver has six "must-know" tips for professional photographers considering a photo shoot near the tracks:
1. Trains can't stop quickly to avoid people or vehicles on the tracks.
2. An optical illusion makes it hard to determine a train's distance from you - and its speed.
3. The average train overhangs the track by at least three feet.
4. Railroad tracks, trestles, yards and rights-of-way are private property.
5. No tracks should be assumed to be abandoned or inactive.
6. People in your community mimic your behavior.
About Operation Lifesaver
Operation Lifesaver's mission is to end collisions, deaths and injuries at highway-rail grade crossings and along railroad rights of way. A national network of trained volunteers provides free presentations on rail safety. For more information or to request a free safety presentation, visit www.oli.org ; follow OLI on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Google is considering buying Waze, a startup that lets online communities create better driving directions, which could lead to a bidding war with Facebook, according to reports.
An unnamed source told Bloomberg News that the Israeli startup with a Palo Alto office is seeking more than $1 billion, but it could instead seek its fortune with venture capitalists. Waze declined to comment.
Two weeks ago, Facebook seemed to be the clear winner in talks with Waze, having beaten out Apple for the $1 billion opportunity. Waze's crowdsourced mapping would clearly beef up Facebook's mobile offerings, and Apple could have used the startup's abilities to strengthen its maligned Apple Maps. However, Apple was only offering $500 million.
U.S. & World
No bidder has a deal and the negotiations may still yield nothing, Bloomberg reported. Waze, with 40 million users, could be strong enough to stand on its own two feet and garner more investment rather than sell out.
