Rtti lo Public Library 274 Main S t. Bfermingda 1c , TT. Y, Rb , 16 SERVING GREATER FARMINGDALE. BETHPAGE ft MELVILLE Vol. 2 No. 45 Second Class Postage has been paid at Farmingdale, N. Y. 11735 Thursday, September 23, 1965 SCHOOL TAX RATE DROPS Historical Society Hears Van Santvoord Peter L. Van Santvoord, Past President of the Oyster Bay Historical Society held the wrapt attention of the Farmingdale- Bethpage Historical Society by his informative and amusing talk on the ' trials and tribulations; the successes and failures' of an historical society on Tuesday evening at the South Farmingdale Library. Van Santvoord described the tribulations of organizing a walking historical tour in Oyster Bay when the society discovered to their dismay that ' this was not the age of the pedestrian-the average man in the prime of life got tired after a half a mile'. The speaker outlined the success of holding a Christmas party at Sagamore Hill; and the failures of expecting junior high school essay contest winners to read aloud their essays on a hot, humid Jrjx* i*? 5zL He JrtSO f'e-scribed die failure of an ' autocratic' historical society organization versus a democratic one and lauded President Frank J. Klesh of the Farmingdale- Betii-page Historical Society for his patience in running an extremely democratic meeting. " Sometimes it takes a little longer, but no one feels left out", he said. The audience went into peals of laughter when Van Santvoord described a ' non- friendly historical society' meeting which he had attended where there were no refreshments nor a social hour as the members solemnly filed out reminding him of the end of a church service. He lauded the fine public relations of the Farmingdale - Bethpage Historical Society whose spirit of friendship was evident to those who came as guests for the first time. Van Santvoord, who is also Vice President of the Underbill Society of America; Vice Chairman oi iht Gleu Co/ e Tri- Cen-temial Committee; and Research Chairman of the Huntington Historical Society ended his talk with a descriptive and entertaining dissertation on ' Founders and Patriots Day' held by the Oyster Bay Historical Society last June. The By- Laws, which had been prepared by a committee headed by Andre Hubbard were read and discussed. The By- Laws were then adopted by a unanimous vote of the members present. Treasurer Lucille Rosen gave a report on the Society's highly successful historic bus tour of the Bethpage Purchase conducted by Iris and Alonzo Gibbs. Plans for a future tour were announced. Mrs. Caroline Klesh, gave a report on the executive committee's study of auctions this summer as a possible fund raising plan for the Society next spring. She named a number of professional auctioneers who were available and described the suc-cessf!'' auctions told by severaj groups. ( Continued on Page 12) Weldon E. Howitt. past Farmingdale Village Historian and member of the Farmingdale- Bethpage Historical Society ( center) shows Peter L. Van Santvoord, Trustee of the Oyster Bay Historical Society and guest speaker Tuesday night at the first meeting of the Fall season of the local society a volume entitled, • Katonab: The History of a New York Village and Its People. Andre Hubbard, Chairman of the Library and Museum Committee of the local society looks on. The meeting was held in die Community Room of ti* e South Farmingdale Branch of the Farmingdale Public Library. The volume had been presented earlier in the evening to Caroline Bunting Klesh, Village Historian as a personal present from Mr. Howitt, who had inscribed die book which had been written by Frances R. Duncomne and other members of die Historical Committee Katonan Village Improvement Society, " Presented as a guide to writing die history of Farmingdale. Widi Best Wishes for Success", signed by Mr. Howitt who had been die beloved English teacher, dien principal for whom the Weldon E. Howitt school building was named. Mrs. Klesh had recently presented a suggested resolution to the Farmingdale Village Board thai an official history be compiled by die Village Historian with the assistance of a committee," so that each chapter would be written by die authority of one segment of die history of Farmingdale. Pokress Photo The 1965- 66 school tax rate for District 22 was set at a special meeting of the Farmingdale Board of Education on Monday, at $ 6,753 for $ 100 of assessed valuation in the Oyster Bay section of the district and $ 10,805 in the Babylon portion. The figure represents a decrease of 13.9£ in the Oyster Bay rate from the 1964- 65 figure of $ 6,892 and a decrease of 22.5£ in last year's Babylon figure. At the time of the budget vote in May the rate had been estimated by the Board at $ 6.08 and $ 10,881 in Oyster Bay and Babylon respectively. The additional decrease of 4.7£ over the original estimated decrease of 9.2£ was attributed by the Board to assessed valuations coming in $ 487,145 over the May estimate in Oyster Bay and $ 95,309 over the Babylon estimate. In both instances, however, the a s sessed valuations are lower than the previous four years average assessed valuation increase. The actual increase of $ 1,578,145 compares with the previous four year average increase ( excluding vacant land re- assessment) of $ 1,743,400 in Oyster Bay. The Babylon increase of $ 445,309 compares with the previous four year average increase of $ 486,250. from 13.9£ to .34tf. Last year 5 Nassau districts ( and 7 Suffolk districts) had higher school tax rates than District # 22. This year preliminary figures indicate that 10 Nassau districts have higher 1965- 66 school tax rates than Farming-dale. rOur tax rate decrease is due primarily to die improtant increase in the shared- cost ceiling on State Aid for operating expenses from $ 515 to $ 600 per pupil," according to a spokesman. Open GOP Headquarters Among Nassau's 53 school tax districts die relative position of the tax rate has improved in the last two years. Last year 23 Nassau districts had higher school tax increases than Farmingdale. This year 37 Nassau districts had increases averaging 25£, 2 had no change, and 7 had decreases of 2$ or less — a total of 46 districts receiving less favorable tax treatment dian our own decrease of 13.9# in Oyster Bay. The 7 remaining districts had decreases ranging Attacking Oyster Bay's incumbent Supervisor Michael Petito, a Democrat, as a man who promised everything and delivered nothing, outgoing Assemblyman and Republican candidate for Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Edwin Fehrenbach moved an overflow crowd to rousing cheers at die opening of die Farmingdale GOP Election Headquarters last Thursday night at 376 rulton Street. Fehrenbach was greeted and introduced by Farmingdale GOP leader and Oyster Bay Tax Receiver Frank J. Hynes who is running for Oyster Bay Town Councilman and who will use the- newly opened headquarter as his home base for his campaign. The large turnout on opening night overflowed into an adjoining lot where a public address system was installed to hear die remarks of Fehrenbach, Hynes and odier candidates were present. Giving the example of Petito's promise to bring about die elimination or at least reduction of toll charges for Oyster Bay residents going to Tobay Beach Fehrenbach characterized his opponent as a man who doesn't hesitate to make promises even when he knows very well diat he can't fullfil diem. Referring to what he called Petito's false alibi diat he's constantly sabotaged by Oyster Bay's Republican Council-men Fehrenbach explained diat in this case, as in many others like it no town board, be it Democratic and Republican, has die power to enable or hinder Petito in die fulfillment of his promises. Farmingdale GOP leader Frank Hynes declared diat die election of Fehrenbach and die diree Republican candidates for Oyster Bay Town Council would insure an administration that not only would get die Town moving again, but which would also make sure diat its energies and experience would be directed towards problems whose solution was within the power and province of of die twon government instead of chasing pies in die sky. Other candidates addressing the crowd were Frank Hynes' running mates Angelo Roncallo and Ralph Marino, Judge Francis Donovan, State Senator Henry Curran, Martin Ginsberg, candidate for die newly created 9 A. D. and William Buchman, who is seeking office as trustee for the Jones Fund. Refreshments were served and entertainment was provided at the opening ceremonies.

hello all
lol i m frist 1
nop you are 2nd
is the same me there lol
grats on being first you little nerd
i m not nerd bagaro
you are just retarded thats all !! -> stupid hello, and I'm first morrons
go eat urself then
wooo omfg im 8th wow shit its soo gay
Jiraya will be killed on this new mission by pain and sasuke will join akatsuki and pursue the 8 tailed host
where is the anime now 127 can be seen yet but where is 128
sasuke will kill itachi first before joining the akatsuki
just watched 128.not on here tho.debugg the site cuz its full of fail
Thank you so much for the fast upload of the 1 hr special..
Jiraya story is kinda interesting.. XD
I'm last! ohnoes :<.
Lol so if ur first what will happen lol?
What a great episode! Please stop telling us what is next to come.. You guys ruin it for non-manga readers..
Thx for the upload..
AwsoMly awsome.. SPOILER WARNING– To bad jiraya die's by pain ='[
huhu… so sad! The death of Jiraiya is near! huhuhu…
cant wait for next episode !!
pff noobs stop spoiling -.-!
19:11 Baaam! xD Favourite part
Well, now we can say for sure that Yondaime is Naruto's Dad… although it was pretty obvious, anyway lol And we also saw the mother for the 1st time… well, nothin out of the ordinary, actually
Those kids look like they r in the aktaski espesally tht little girl.
Shyt ……….
Pain is Yahiko The girl is konaga or sumthin and
the guy with tha special eye … is the boss …
hollllyy shyttt O.O
wander how naruto's mom died
now i know all about it naruto his mom and his dad fourth hogake hmm maybe naruto mom died by nine tails fox xd
i like how they tell us on naruto shippduen 127 and 128 who narutos parents are. But what i dont understand is why doesnt naruto know…like why dont they tell him? I mean his father is a war hero…the fourth hokaga. and naruto is growing up thinking that hes an orphan though he is, but he doesnt even know who hes parents are…i think its messed up that they wont tell him. but i think it was cool that jirah taught the naruto's dad and now him
also it would be really cool if naruto learns another one of his fathers jutsu's, like the transportation jutsu. naruto would be like his father, the yellow flash
the damn weird eye guy is tobi. its obvious the mask is the same pattern
makes me wonder though.. what happened to naruto's mother? we know what happened to the 4th.. buuut…
oh and bla, the weird eye guy is Pain.. tobi is a uchiha
The 4th is great, but the scene at the end of 128 can't compare to the manga. Jiraya looks much bigger than Minato in the anime and in the manga he is overwhelmed by Minatos compliments. I always thought of this scene as one of the best in Naruto, but don't like the way it is in the anime
First up every week? I just watched both episodes on another site! dont know why they arnt up on this site yet….
His real name is not Tobi. If you remember from the begining of Shippuden when sasuke and Naruto meet again and he is inside Naruto head, The fox tells sasuke that he reminds him of ________? with thoses eyes
what a episode this naruto her mom n dad beautiful it means obito is tobi he is real villian
If any of u payed attntion to th subs inepisode 125 or sumthinthen u would hear "tobi" quote "… Madara Uchia!"
Awww… Naruto's parents…
hey hu was the hokage hu die when jiraiya tsunade and orochimaru visit the grave…
nagato is pain and tobi madara
OMGGGG!!!! naruto is son of the 4th hokagee! this is so cool. and i knew nagato was pain the second i saw his eye. why thoguh =(
NOPE !! naruto is the child of prophecy and he will become stronger than jiraya with sage mode (trainning jiraya went on while he stayed with the frogs). Jiraya, in episode 126 went to the rain village and will fight pain. the conclusion is that jiraya will die and he now knows that naruto was his destined disciple and he did a great job in forming him. Eventually, pain (akatsuki's boss) will go to konoha and destroy it. there, naruto will pop up and kill all six peins. zetsu now says that he became stronger than sasuke. meanwhile, sasuke kills itachi. because of itachi, sasuke loses his cursemark and obtains mangekyou Sharingan. in his death, itachi gave his three MS techniques to sasuke (amaterasu, tsukoyomi and susanoo which is an absolute defence, more powerful than gaara's sand). Sasuke will now work for akatsuki and Uchiha Madara will control him (he has Eternal mangekyou sharingan) BTW uchiha madara is tobi, so that means obito isnt the guy with the mask, its madara himself. Oh and danzou posses the sharingan (covered by bandageson his right eye) the eye belongs to uchiha shisui, uchiha itachi's friend, which allow the user to mind control someone else. And itachi isnt bad he killed the entire uchiha clan because he was told to by the elders of konoha because they were preparing a coup-d'état. He left his little brother alive because he couldnt kill him. he made sasuke seek power so he could manage to destroy madara, who helped itachi wiping the clan. itachi then went away and acted as the bad guy so sasuke would continue to seek power. Madara was the one to launch the kyuubi on Konoha because he could control it with the Sharingan, which is the true power of those eyes.
I hope i didnt spoil you guys
pain is not the boss of akutsuki. Madara took his little brother´s eyes and r using them now, danzo took one of Madara´s eyes and is using it know.
why do they lilke to take ppl's eye? it's too bad that they wern't born with it…
next episode also it will 1 hour !! and Finally Pain vs JIRAIYA !!
ahh kinda cheesi the stori of naruto's parents and stuff, everi1 alrdu knew
no offense but i want naruto 2 die
sasuke 4 eva
Sasuke is an emo fag. All he does is fuck up the like he had. He had a great one, and we all know he cant kill naruto; he already proved that in teh NARUTO series.
Admins the Video link is broken…
yo manga readers stop fucking it up for everyone else
i people naruto shipuden it is a hosom pvp e think you gona like

The Empire State Building spent the last couple of years burnishing the 80-year-old landmark's green bona fides - chiefly though a series of efficiency upgrades and other energy retrofits.
Last week the building's caretakers announced another milestone:
A two-year deal brokered with Green Mountain Energy, a renewable power and carbon offset retailer recently acquired by NRG Energy of New Jersey, the Empire State Building will purchase 55 million kilowatt-hours worth of renewable energy certificates annually — enough to cover its yearly electricity consumption.
The process was facilitated in part by the EPA's Green Power Partnership. A voluntary program that supports the organizational procurement of green power by offering expert advice, technical support, tools and resources.
More about the agreement in these USA Today and The New York Times articles.

'The Americans' Star Matthew Rhys: 'I Would Love to Go Back to the Simplicity of the '80s'
Getty Images
Things get very complicated for
Matthew Rhys
in the new FX drama,
The Americans
, premiering tonight at 10 p.m. ET.
The Cold War Era drama has the Welshman playing a Russian who is pretending to be an American.
He and costar
Keri Russell
star as married KBG spies who keep their identities a secret from their friends and two children while managing a network of spies and informant in Washington, D.C.
"The concept of this show is pretty amazing," says Rhys, 38. "As an actor, it's a bit of a dream to play such a complex character."
Rhys talked to Parade.com about the new spy drama, working with Keri Russell, and staying in touch with his
Brothers & Sisters
What drew you to this role?
"A number of things; the most important being the relationship between the two main characters. They've been in this arranged marriage for the past 14 years, and now all of the sudden, their emotions are changing and the relationship is evolving into something else."
How familiar were you with this time in history?
"I hate to say it, but it was pretty fresh in my mind! I have very fond memories of the 80s; they were very formative years for me. I certainly remember the Cold War. It was a closer doorstep for the Brits than the Americans, so it was a very real and palpable threat at the time. Hopefully it will be a nostalgic trip for some, and then it will be an entirely new introduction for the next generation."
You play a spy who has to operate without the use of modern technology. Could you survive a week without your cellphone?
"I would absolutely love to go back to the simplicity of the '80s, where there wasn't texting, social media, iPhones, or smartphones. I love the fact that you would go home and check your messages. I'm not well suited to the world of modern technology. But within the series, I love the fact that its not about satellite cameras and computers. Espionage boiled down to human ingenuity, and I think that lends itself to a little more drama."
How is Keri Russell as a costar?
"She's everything you want in an actress. She doesn't take it too seriously, but she has this incredible work ethic as well, and she keeps it fun on set. She's fantastic."
How are you finding the intense action scenes?
"I'm loving it! It's always a welcome break from the more emotional, dialogue-heavy scenes. We just get to kick and punch. It's great."
Were you hesitant to take on another series after your successful run on
Brothers and Sisters
"Not at all because this show is so different from
Brothers and Sisters
, and my part is so different. It was everything I wanted to do next in my career."
Do you keep in touch with your costars?
"Very much so. I saw
Ron Rifkin
last week, and I spoke with
Dave Annable
and texted with
Calista [Flockhart]
Sally [Field]
's a little busy on the
campaign trail, but she's been in touch. We're all pretty much in touch. It's been great."

Is there a device for this? A box or something, connecting your external hard drive to a television. It would have to have a usb connector, of course. Just wondering, if not it should be the next invention!
+ Reply to Thread
Results 1 to 30 of 37
Thread: External Hard Drive > TV?
Lots. Here's a few:
http://www.popcornhour.com/ -
Xbox 360
I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
Xbox 360 has an input for something like an external hard drive? I never knew that.
yes... USB ports!
as long as you format a drive to FAT32, it will be a 'portable storage' device on Xbox 360I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
The hard drive is already in FAT32 format. You mean format the xbox so it will read?
NO NO! format the external drive as FAT32.. (the xbox won't read NTFS, it won't show up.. only FAT32)
I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
I was looking for a cheaper route. Anything I can pick up at a Best Buy store? If it's over $100 it's cheaper just to put my movies on a blank dvd. Been looking into those as well, Verbatim is the best that I can see.
You can get external USB 2.0 hard drives for <US$100. You won't find any that can also act as a media player though.
Cheapest one is probably the Mediasonic HM2-U2TV, it's basically an HD enclosure but you need to buy an IDE laptop drive (2.5 inch) separately
It doubles as an external HD, and can play common media formats like mpg, photos (jpg), DIVX/XVID (not x264)
$50 + cost of HD (you can get a cheap 80GB 2.5 IDE HD for about $60) -
I already have an external hard drive, loaded down with movies. Just looking for a media box, connecting the hard drive to the tv.
a 100-pack of Verbatim's can be had for $25.. you won't find a media player that cheap!
I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
I want the DL media, but everyone has problems with them. Too many coasters, wasting money. What's a good site for buying blank dvds? Thanks for the help folks!
I found a cheaper way, my PS2 has 2 usb ports. I had no idea until I checked. Thanks for the help guys.
There are special HD-Cases for this.
www.hc96.de -> All about the Sony DCR-HC96 and Camcorder accessories. -
the ps2 won't work as a media player, will it? oh, and a good site for blank media is www.rima.com
I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
For people using the XBOX 360 as a media player, I think FAT32 is limited to 250 GB or something, so if your hard drive is bigger than that I suggest getting a program called MacDrive 7, format the hard drive to HFS+, and go from there. I've got two 500 GB hard drives formatted that way and it works beautifully.
Originally Posted by boonebakerI am just a worthless liar,

The PS2 doesn't work as a media player for the usb ports. So now I'm back to square one. I would use my labtop but it only has S-Audio out, instead of S-Video out. Which is pretty stupid to me. My external hard drive is 320 GB.
Would the Xbox 360 Arcade work? -
Originally Posted by boonebaker

I don't know about that player but some, like the Philips DVP-5960, can play video off an external USB drive. But most are limited to less than USB 1.1 speeds and won't play high bitrate files like DVD VOBs (they max out around 4000 kbps). Most require FAT32 (no NTFS support) and have filename issues (munged 8.3 filenames).
No. Except for power. The USB ports on most set-top DVD players don't supply enough power for the typical 3.5 inch hard drive. Flash drives need much less power so that's not a problem.
Is there anything I can purchase at Best Buy or Circuit City? A media player of some sort that will do the job. Something other than the Xbox 360.
If you want something under $100, then you are looking at a DVD player with USB supprt as noted above. Your next choice would be a modded XBox or XBox 360. Above that would be the dedicated media players which are typically in the $200 range.

This one http://svp.co.uk/product/sumvision_zengo_multimedia_player_and_recorder_55286 can record direct to the hard drive or for a little more money you can have one of these http://svp.co.uk/product/freecom_network_mediaplayer_minus_35_(no_hd)_4198
I'm sure they must be available in the US. -
There's all kinds of media players with usb 2.0 intake, but you wont find any of them in a well known retail store liike Best Buy or Circuit City. I also like to slap an extended warranty on everything, especially my external hard drives. If any of these media players make it to a retail store, let me know and keep me updated. Thanks!
You're a salesmans dream! Pay over the odds in a retail store AND buy the extended warranty? They can see you coming a mile off!
Unless the law is different in the US, which I doubt, anything that is faulty within the warranty period will be replaced by the retailer, if it fails after the warranty period but still in a period less than you would reasonably expect it to last, it can still be replaced. With an extended warranty all you are doing is giving away money. What you spend on extended warranty would usually allow you to pay for any repairs and have some money left over.
Remember the bathtub curve for electronic items. The likelyhood of it failing is greatest in the first few days of use and then rises again when it reaches the end of it's life. By which time it is obsolete and you've probably replaced it anyway.

PICKENS—Fire fighters worked all night on Tuesday to contain a blaze at Brunswick Yarn Mill in Pickens that resulted in half the building being destroyed.
The Pickens Fire Department was the first to respond.
"We got the call at about 9 p.m. Tuesday night," said Pickens Fire Marshall Stebo Saylors. "We were told there was some smoke. We responded and started making our attacks."
Saylors says it was then the team noticed that they needed assistance.
"Once we started making our attacks, we were being blocked," said Saylors. "We started calling our neighboring departments here in the county. We called Oconee County and Anderson County. At this time, it is undetermined what the cause of the fire is."
Saylors says no one was injured in the fire.
"Half of the building is at loss, but nobody is hurt," said Saylors. "We're going to be here all day."
The Marshall says crews were staying fresh through Tuesday and Wednesday.
"We've actually rotated personnel out with other departments to have a fresh crew in at all times," said Saylors. "I'm looking at a time frame of the rest of (Wednesday) to get it cleared up."
"Everybody that has been here has responded quickly," Saylors continued. "Everybody has just been able to jump in and help out."
Easley Fire Chief Butch Womack says teams from his fire department were on the scene all night as well.
"We normally responded to fires like that only a couple of times every year," said Womack. "We offer mutual aid to them just like they would to us if we had the same thing here."
As of Wednesday, the cause of the fire was still unknown.
"There will be a further investigation," said Saylors. "At this point in time it remains undetermined."
Womack says more information will come when the scene clears.
"We had a great spot to look at where it started, but we were never actually able to get anybody in there because of the hazards and the dangers," said Womack. "It looks a lot different now than what we had at two o'clock in the morning."

One of the most difficult tasks in gift giving can be finding a gift for the person who has everything -- or could buy it if he or she wanted to. In such cases, it requires some creativity to come up with something unique that can be used by your loved one.
It is possible, and it does not mean you won't spend money. But you do not have to buy a fancy car or arrange a cruise to get the job done. There are plenty of affordable ideas that can get your gift giving "out of the box," in more ways than one. The key is finding something unique that shows you have put thought into what your loved one might enjoy.
One of the best ways to get a gift for someone who has everything is to personalize it. Wine keys can be personalized, along with a variety of other items, including jewelry, nice pen sets, garden tools and handbags.
If you have the money, it is even possible to order personalized perfume and personalized vodka. These are haute couture products that are made specifically for one person and as such, they are unique.
It is possible to have one of the billions of as-yet unnamed stars claimed as a gift. The star registry will even send a star chart so that your loved one can locate the star.
New, Unusual Gadgets Work
Many people enjoy new and unusual gadgets. If you get wind of something your loved one has not bought yet, perhaps you can buy it instead.
Some gadgets include solar-powered battery chargers, robots with artificial intelligence, and the latest, hot-off-the-assembly line smart phone.

Thanks Andy ...... so the question is what am I missing, or what have I set, that prevents that option from being present here?
I just had a quick look at that (following your message), it is set to no sharing.Looking at Synaptic shows samba-client, samba-common, samba-server and samba-winbind are installed though I have never taken the time to setup samba.I have used SMB4K and the network sharing option in the PCC to access windows machines, so I would guess the samba elements were added this way (though I don't remember now).Regards

City would provide $2 million for Wauwatosa office development
City funds totaling $2 million would be provided to finance a parking structure connected to a Wauwatosa office building, under a new proposal which would pave the way for additional future city spending at the Innovation Campus project.

Northridge redevelopment plan remains on hold pending court action
The plan by Penzeys Spices owner William Penzey to buy and redevelop the former Northridge mall remains on hold, with the current owner opposing Penzey's request for a court-appointed receiver to operate the property.

Penzey in October announced he wants to move a large portion of his company's operations, including its Wauwatosa distribution center and Town of Brookfield offices, to Northridge.That would amount to a huge investment in the dormant property. »Read Full Blog Post(13)

The cause of Sunday's power outage at the Super Bowl in New Orleans has been traced to a newly installed electrical relay device meant to protect Superdome equipment, a power company and the device's manufacturer said Friday.
But the companies appear to be on different pages about whether human error was to blame.
The relay, put online late last year, triggered unexpectedly, causing another device to stop supplying power to part of the building, Entergy New Orleans told city officials Friday.
The partial outage interrupted the game between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers for about 35 minutes, and city officials have been anxious about whether the outage will impact the city's efforts to attract future big-ticket events.
Entergy told New Orleans City Council members that the company still doesn't know why the device triggered, but the relay has been removed, the the dome's electrical system is ready to go and steps will be taken to ensure a malfunction doesn't happen again.
"Rest assured, the Superdome is fully functional," CEO Charles Rice told the council's utility committee Friday morning.
But the relay's manufacturer, Chicago-based S&C Electric Co., says it believes it knows why the problem happened: The relay, it says, wasn't operated at the proper setting.
System operators essentially put the relay's trip setting too low, S&C vice president Michael Edmonds wrote to CNN in an e-mail. The electrical load exceeded the trip setting, so the relay triggered, he said.
That activated the switch gear, which is designed to cut some power to isolate any problem and prevent system damage and a larger outage.
"Based on the onsite testing, we have determined that if higher settings had been applied, the equipment would not have disconnected the power," Edmonds wrote. "S&C continues to work with all those involved to get the system back online, and our customers can continue to rely on the quality and performance of our products."

Couple is crazy for comedy
Hollie and Steve Himmelman
The Meshuganas
9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 10
Gorilla Tango's Skokie Theatre, 7924 Lincoln Ave.
(773) 598-4549; www.gorillatango.com
Updated: November 8, 2012 6:13PM
Two self-proclaimed crazy people are preparing to share their perspectives on life at the Skokie Theatre.
The couple — stand-up comedians Hollie and Steve Himmelman — performs as The Meshuganas, although they come across as a very sane couple who just enjoy making people laugh.
Hollie and Steve have been self-producing their comedy shows through Himmelmania Productions for two years but took on the Meshuganas moniker just this year.
Each of the comedians performs a separate set.
"I do a lot of different topics," Hollie said. "I talk about family. I talk about husbands, my childhood. One of my bits is growing up in Skokie. Anything that I think I can turn into a humorous piece."
Hollie recalls her early years in Skokie as "a simple, relaxing, warm time in my life." However, at that time, the village was a very different place than it is today. "When I was growing up," Hollie said, "Skokie was so Jewish that even our pet pig kept kosher."
Steve's humor is based on mocking everything. "When I did shows in the '70s, my show was called, 'Leaving No Turn Unstoned,'" he reported. "The key to my comedy is misdirection. I lead you somewhere and I take you somewhere else."
Hollie began taking acting classes at area schools about eight years ago. "One of the schools offered a class in stand-up," she said. "After the first class, it caught me and I said, 'I found it.' I've been enamored with it ever since."
Hollie has been performing stand-up for about five years. She has appeared at Zanies' Fun Female Show, Gorilla Tango in Chicago and the Blue Bayou in Chicago, among other places.
Steve's comedy roots go back much further. "I started doing some stand-up in 1975," he related. "I was involved in the Twin Cities Amateur Stand-Up Comedian Contest. The owner of the club was Rodney Dangerfield. I was runner-up to Louie Anderson in 1975."
After doing some roasts, Steve decided to concentrate on his career as a trader. He is currently an investment banker but is also performing whenever possible.
Hollie is concentrating most of her energy on comedy writing and performing. "And I'm a mother to our three dogs," she said. "They never grow up. That's what I say about husbands, too. Steve says he's the only one ever in the doghouse."
Although they aren't on the stage at the same time, Hollie and Steve are definitely a comedy team.
"We write independently but if I'm writing and I need to hone in something, I can go to Steve and say, 'What do you think this needs?'" Hollie said. "He'll say, 'I think you need to go in this direction,' or he might throw something out there that gives it a heightened punch line. It's really helpful because he understands how a joke is written and how to evoke that laughter."
Steve said it's great living with another comic because, "It's like a shared hobby and that's a good thing."
As for the name the two comics chose for their act, Steve related, "One of the things I tell people in the audience is, 'If you don't know what a meshugana is, it's the same thing as marriage. It's crazy!"

CHEYENNE — Sen. Mike Enzi is among the vast majority of House and Senate Republicans who have signed a pledge not to vote for any tax increases, but said it's a bad idea for lawmakers to make the commitment, even if they agree with the premise.
Enzi said Thursday he will abide by his oath of office but won't sign or be bound by any lawmaker pledges, including the Americans for Tax Reform pledge championed by conservative activist Grover Norquist.
The pledge calls for opposing increases to marginal income tax rates and to oppose any net cuts to tax deductions or credits unless the moves are offset by reduced tax rates.
Enzi signed it during his first Senate campaign in 1996 but has not signed any pledges since, said his spokesman, Dan Head.
Part of the problem, Head said by email, is that pledges can be open to interpretation and the meaning can change over time. For example, some lawmakers have used the Americans for Tax Reform pledge to defend spending, he said.
"Grover Norquist doesn't live in Wyoming and Sen. Enzi's primary concern is what is best for his constituents," Head said. "He will not give away his vote to someone else's stretched interpretation."
Norquist said neither the wording nor meaning of the pledge has changed over the years. It was news to him, he said, that anybody had used the pledge to defend spending.
Norquist said the pledge is to the people of Wyoming, not to him.
"He promised them in writing he wouldn't raise their taxes and if he wants to change his mind, he has to tell them," Norquist said by phone.
The pledge is getting new attention as lawmakers and President Barack Obama try to address the budget deficit.
Steep tax increases and budget cuts will automatically take effect next year — a possibility known as the "fiscal cliff." Some economists say it could send the economy back into recession if Obama and Congress don't agree to more moderate measures by the end of this year.
Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso is one of six Republican senators who have not signed the Americans for Tax Reform pledge, according to the group's website. Rep. Cynthia Lummis said she proudly signed the pledge in 2008, the year she was first elected to Congress.
Obama favors allowing Bush-era tax cuts to expire for couples with incomes above $250,000 a year. However, Enzi's stance on pledges doesn't mean he endorses that move or any tax increase.
Enzi won't commit to any approach to dealing with the deficit unless it's part of specific legislation he has read and studied, Head said.
"Tough decisions have to be made, but a little pain now is better than a lot of pain when all our bills come due," Enzi said by email through his spokesman.
Enzi's deficit reduction proposals include freezing federal spending and cutting 1 percent from every agency and program each year for five years, which Enzi said would yield a balanced budget in five years.
He endorses many recommendations of the Simpson-Bowles budget commission, including reforming the tax code, he said. Former U.S. Sen. Alan Simpson of Wyoming co-chaired the committee.
Like Enzi, Lummis supports some of the tax reform ideas in the Simpson-Bowles recommendations.
"I support tax reform that closes loopholes, broadening the tax base and reducing deductions and credits while reducing the tax rate," Lummis said in a statement.
"Focusing only on a politically expedient and narrow-minded 'tax the rich' approach, which is in reality a tax increase on America's small businesses, will get us nowhere close to the number needed for comprehensive reform," she said.
Americans for Tax Reform lists Barrasso along with Jeff Flake of Arizona, Charles Grassley of Iowa, Susan Collins of Maine, Thad Cochran of Mississippi, and John Hoeven of North Dakota as Republican senators who have not signed the no-tax-increases pledge.
"If we can agree to close loopholes and simplify our tax code, we can broaden the tax base through private industry expansion and lower unemployment," Barrasso said by email.

CA Technologies is a global information technology (IT) management software company. With headquarters in New York, CA Technologies works with the majority of the Forbes Global 2000, governments and thousands of other companies in diverse industries worldwide.
Like many companies in this difficult economic climate, CA was looking for a way to say "Thank You" to customers and partners that was sincere, but not over the top or frivolous. The CA sales team decided to send TisBest Charity Gift Cards to high level contacts at key accounts. "Our sales executives were looking for something unique, a gift that would be meaningful to each and every one of our recipients," said CA Technologies Program Director Nancy Mandel. "Our team loved the choice that TisBest provided – that our gift recipients could select the causes and organizations that were important to them."
Nancy reported, "The response from customers was overwhelmingly positive. They thought it was a great idea, how they prefer this over a 'luxury bottle of wine,' and some said that they passed the idea on to their peers for consideration."
The TisBest feedback system allowed recipients to send a note back to CA when they made their charity selection. Here are just two of the many actual notes received by the CA staff through the TisBest "send-a-note" system:
"Thanks for the charity gift card. It is a remarkably thoughtful way to celebrate the holidays." --T.H.
"What a great way to send Season's Greetings. Thanks for allowing me to make a child's life better." –- G.W.
Nancy also said of TisBest, "This was my first experience with TisBest Charity Gift Cards. On the back end, the business process was seamless. By working closely with Jon Siegel and the TisBest team, we were able to tailor the charity cards to reflect our brand - all done in a very timely manner. What was promised by TisBest was delivered. The experience and results exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend TisBest to others."
To learn more about TisBest Charity Gift Cards see our Business Gifts FAQ, send us an email at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 206-501-3005 x 2 between 8 AM-6 PM (Seattle time) Monday-Friday.
