Shaft Anthology – His Big Score & More 1971 to 1974 (3CD set)
CD (Item 477020) MGM/Film Score Monthly, Mid 70s — Condition: New Copy
An amazing collection of music – and essential to any collection of blacksploitation soul and funk, even if you own the original Shaft album on Stax! Disc 1 features the original film score for the Shaft movie, not the record issued by Stax – so although Isaac Hayes handled the music, it's different from what you might have on record – and features a great array of vocal tracks and shorter funky sound cues – all with rhythm by The Bar-Kays and The Movement! Titles on disc 1 include "Bumpy's Theme", "I Can't Get Over Losin You", "Reel 4 Part 6", "Source No 1 6M1C", "Source No 2 7M1A", "Shaft Strikes Again/Return Of Shaft", "Shaft's Pain", "Rescue/Roll Up", "Love Scene Ellie", "Harlem Montage", "Shaft's First Fight", and "Title Shaft". Disc 2 features the killer soundtrack to Shaft's Big Score – written by Gordon Parks, and played with full funky style by Dick Hazard, who's getting a bit of help from the mighty Tom McIntosh. The tracks seem to include everything issued on the original LP, plus a bit more – with titles that include "Symphony For Shafted Souls", "9M3", "Funeral Home", "Don't Misunderstand", "Fight Scene", "Ike's Place", "First Meeting", "Smart Money", and "Blowin Your Mind". That disc and all of disc 3 features music from the Shaft TV series – some really under-exposed music that's totally great too, but almost with more of a crime/cop sort of style – although also with some cool moody moments too. Some of this music was done by Johnny Pate, and titles include work from the episodes The Executioners, The Killing, Hit Run, The Cop Killers, and The Kidnapping. 3CD set also features 2 bonus tracks from a single – "The Men" and "Type Thang".

Things to Do in Caldwell

Sculpted into the mountainous terrain of Boise National Forest, Terrace Lakes Resort offers a natural playground to engage in all manner of outdoor pursuits. During the warmer months, hikers enjoy a whiff of Mother Nature's piney perfume as they walk miles of trails lined with evergreen trees and teeming with wildlife. Excursions on the Payette River by kayak, canoe, fishing boat, or parade float offer a refreshing respite from the summer swelter—as does the resort's geothermal heated swimming pool. The resort's 18-hole golf course challenges players with a pair of nine-hole sides that demand two distinct styles of play. The front nine's open layout gives big hitters ample space to unleash their power, while the back nine demands more control to keep the ball between dense evergreen forests that cling to both sides of the fairways.
In the winter, snowfall conceals the Resort's fairways and hiking trails, but it doesn't bury the fun. The crackling fireplace in the Resort lodge becomes the cozy trailhead to 250 acres of groomed cross-country ski tracks and terrain for snow tubing and snowmobiling. The Resort offers rental skis and snowboards, but guests must provide their own jetpacks if they prefer non-ski-lift ascents up the mountain.
Silverhawk Aviation's owner, Catherine Rad Weber, built a school not only to teach people how to fly, but to learn to love their wings as well. Her comprehensive curriculum challenges students to fly at high altitudes, in different weather conditions, and over diverse terrain, training helicopter pilots who will be comfortable in the cockpit anywhere in the world. The program includes hands-on experience in caring for the rides, moving them in and out of hangars, and safely washing them without getting soap in their eyes.
Whether training or touring, visitors receive eyefuls of southern Idaho's diverse geological features. The helicopters surmount rugged mountains, speed over mesas and high deserts, and ride air currents above rivers that wend their way into deep canyons. Apart from stunning the brain's beauty receptors, this splendor provides a natural obstacle course against which more experienced pilots test their skill, zipping around rock spires or hopping the feet of their craft neatly through pristine fields of tire plants.
At Idaho X-Sports, visitors experience the high-speed thrills of barreling down snowy slopes while safely seated in cushy snow tubes. Lifts transport guests to the top of the hills, where they can choose from 900-foot runs in three varying levels of intensity, from gentle slopes to inclines steep enough to scare away even the most skilled stilt-walkers. At the bottom of the hill, a yurt welcomes spent guests to warm up by the fire and replenish their energy with food and drinks. Visitors may also snag Idaho X-Sports' skis and snowshoes and explore more than 10 miles of groomed Nordic ski trails.
Nestled in a fork of the Payette River, the scenic Garden Valley opens up to visitors during horseback trail rides, wagon rides, and wintertime sleigh rides led by Garden Valley Trail Rides' passionate equine lovers. Surrounded by the pines of the majestic Idaho Mountains, the clip-clop of well-trained hooves, and the echoing calls of eagles trying to use echolocation, friendly guides shepherd visitors in groups or on private guided rides atop guests' own horses by appointment.
Bear Valley River Co. fuels outdoor fun with half- or full-day whitewater-rafting excursions along the Payette River. Licensed guides help passengers navigate the river's twists and turns from a well-maintained fleet of inflatable rafts. The current-savvy hosts provide life jackets, helmets, and a laminated copy of A River Runs Through It for each rider, and can also offer catered meals prepared in the company's on-site restaurant. Guides place a strong emphasis on safety with mandatory equipment checks and a safety orientation before each excursion. Following the whitewater orientation, groups can enjoy a relaxing jaunt down the main Payette River, course through the waterfalls and Class IV rapids of the South Fork, or spend the day fishing in Swirly Canyon.
At The Nampa Rollerdrome, kids and adults speed around a more than 60-year-old wood-floored skating rink flanked by a snack bar, party room, and ample hangout space. Birthday parties fill bellies with pizza in a private room boasting a wall illustration of Mickey Mouse, which mysteriously ages even as revelers remain eternally youthful. Roller-hockey leagues facilitate friendly competition among all age groups, and late-night Friday skate sessions keep in-line wheels in motion till midnight. Gamers can take a break from strenuous rinkmanship in the game room, stocked with air hockey, a crane game, and Ms. Pac-Man, in which players woo an ambitious bachelorette married to her ghost-swallowing career.

An attempt to capture a suspect on a battery charge led to a chase through Thomaston just after midnight on Feb. 11.
The battery charge was filed by a female victim on Feb. 8. According to a report by Upson County Sheriff's Deputy Timothy Salter, the victim said she was at her mother's house on Roberts Street, when her boyfriend, identified as Justin Todd Passmore, 25, of Thomaston, came to the house and started arguing with her. He allegedly hit her in the head and face before fleeing.
Three days later, Sergeant Neill Sanders was advised by dispatch shortly after midnight that the victim had called and said Passmore had called and wanted her to come pick him up. Sanders got in contact with the victim, and they worked out that officers would stop her while she was driving him to his sister's house and arrest him on the battery charge.
Knowing the route she would be taking and that she would be driving a gold Lexus, Sanders, along with deputies Clayton Jones and Gerren Vining, and Thomaston Police officers Bruce Gilbert and Tommy Sanders, waited in positions along the route. The gold Lexus passed Sanders going northbound on South Center Street, and he recognized Passmore in the passenger's seat. The Lexus turned onto East Lee Street and Sanders activated his blue lights to stop the car. The vehicle started to slow down, but in his headlights, Sanders reported seeing the passenger lean over toward the driver, and the Lexus accelerated.
Sanders and the other officers began to chase the vehicle. It turned onto Oglethorpe Way with the brake lights on as if someone was pushing on the brake pedal and the accelerator at the same time. The Lexus turned left onto Parkway Drive and suddenly stopped, then sped off again. It turned right onto East Gordon. Sanders was able to pass the vehicle on East Gordon and blocked the intersection at Glendale Road, forcing the car to stop.
The male passenger exited the vehicle and ran behind a nearby house, with Sanders and Gilbert giving chase on foot. Vining and Jones saw the suspect behind another house. Jones ordered him to stop, and when the suspect continued to run, Jones shot him with a Taser, hitting him in the back, and the man fell to the ground.
Passmore was taken into custody and charged with fleeing and attempting to elude law enforcement, and obstruction of an officer.
When questioned, the victim said that when Passmore saw the blue lights come on, he said she had set him up. When he saw her attempting to stop, she said he leaned over and pressed on the gas pedal with his hand, preventing them from stopping. The victim was not charged in the incident and released.

The writer/actor/comedian Steve Martin wrote the book "Cruel Shoes" and today I had a day full of cruel shoes and many women can testify!
After hours of trying to find a pair of comfortable and affordable white sandals to get ready for summer in the South, I gave up.
Actually, I didn't really give up, but bought what could be called shoes. But when I got them home, I regretted my purchase. I spent less than $50 for two pairs of summer shoes because I need cool shoes for hot temperatures. (And I cannot afford Jimmy Choos or any other even nearly-expensive shoes).
Shoes, I learned at the "History of Footwear," have been on our feet for thousands of years. Apparently, early humans wore leather foot coverings filled with straw. Sandals are the oldest crafted foot covering known.
Shoe fashions, according to the footwear website, date all the way back to the mystical Chinese practice of foot-binding. The high-soled wooden shoe style, called the geta, originated in Japan.
"History of Footwear" noted that an astonishing 88 per cent of all women wear shoes that are too small.
Maybe it's not all our fault. Today, while I searched in vain for a really good pair of affordable summer shoes, a woman walked up to me to share my (apparently) obvious puzzlement and pain. We talked at length about the difficulty of simply finding comfortable, price-wise shoes that are also pretty. We agreed that there are all sorts of styles and colors and the "bling" she mentioned on some shoes. But, we wondered, "what about shoes for feet of a certain age?" For feet that have traveled quite a few miles? We didn't arrive at any suitable conclusion.
So, here I sit, with one pair of cruel shoes at home and another pair on my feet at the library. There's a reason most of us kick our shoes off when we get home. Sometimes we can barely wait for that amazing little liberty. Guess where I'm headed? I can't wait. And wherever you are, good lady, why don't you join me? We'll testify!

Meteor Blast Injures Hundreds
By: Meteorologist Steve Newton
Updated: February 15, 2013
Reports to the number of people vary, but the governor of the Chelyabinsk region was quoted as saying as many as 950 people were hurt, two seriously. City officials said about 1 million square feet of glass broke in the blast, and the majority of injuries are related to the shattering glass.
The meteor impact occurred less than a day before an asteroid is set to make the closest recorded pass of earth by an asteroid at around 17,000 miles.
According to the Russian Academy of Sciences the meteor was about 10 tons and entered the atmosphere at a speed of about 9 miles per second. The aerial explosion was 18-32 miles above the ground (95,000-169,000 feet) and released the energy equivalent to several kilotons (thousands of tons of TNT).
Several fragments of the meteor did strike the earth, and those meteorites. A Russian army spokesperson said a 20ft wide crater had been found in the ice of Lake Chebarkul.
The region where the impact occurred is about 1,000 miles east of Moscow and has an approximate population of 3.5 million.
This is not the first recorded meteor event in Russia. In 1908, a meteor exploded and impacted in Siberia. The Tunguska Event as it is now known, leveled trees over nearly 1,000 square miles and its blast was estimated to be 1,000 times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb.

Wilmington Family Office Expands To High Ridge Park In Stamford7 Aug, 2007, Stamford, CT
Six-building property approaches 100% occupancy
Cushman & Wakefield, exclusive leasing agent to High Ridge Park Corporate Center in Stamford, today announced that Wilmington Family Office signed a seven-year lease to occupy 3,082 square feet at the six-building, 583,000-square-foot complex. This is a new office location for the Delaware-based wealth advisory firm. Wilmington Family
Office will move to space on the first floor of 4 High Ridge Park in September 2007. Cushman & Wakefield's Stuart Romanoff, executive vice president, Stephen Baker, senior director, Christopher O'Callaghan, senior director, and Adam Klimek, associate director, represented the property owners, George Comfort & Sons, a New York City-based, privately owned real estate investment and management firm, and Angelo, Gordon & Co.'s Core Plus Fund. Steven Greenbush of CBRE represented Wilmington Family Office. "High Ridge Park was the ideal location for Wilmington Family Office, which was looking for an office location that reflected its stature in the financial community," said Mr. Baker. "There are few properties in Fairfield County that can provide Class-A office space with competitive rents and an unsurpassed amenity package." "Wilmington Family Office conducted an extensive regional site search and selected High Ridge Park based on the economics, location, quality of the property and tenant conveniences," said Jay Smolin, Regional Managing Director of Wilmington Family Office. "The landlord was also extremely accommodating in meeting the firm's space requirements." High Ridge Park is now more than 90% occupied. The property was purchased by George Comfort & Sons in 2004. Themed "Office in a Park" to convey its campus-like setting, High Ridge Park has completed a major multi-million dollar interior and exterior renovation program. Completed exterior redesign projects have consisted of landscape replacement, extensive renovations to base-building infrastructures (HVAC, mechanical equipment), and the installation of a new lighting system to enhance illumination in the driveways. In addition, new façades and window installations in Buildings 4 and 5, and a new plaza for Building 6 have been completed. The interior renovations included a new cafeteria with catering and delivery services, redesigned lobbies in Buildings 4 and 5, a refurbished fitness center and a new tenant conference center. The property's prestigious roster of tenants includes UST, Citizens Communications, MeadWestvaco, TNS, as well as financial services firms, hedge funds, and private companies. Tenant amenities at High Ridge Park include an express bus to the train station, a pond with fountains and picnic areas, a car-detailing facility, dry cleaning drop-off and delivery service, a childcare center and WiFi. Situated on 40 acres, the property is located off High Ridge Road (Route 137) and Exit 35 on the Merritt Parkway (Route 15) and is four miles north of downtown Stamford and the Stamford Transportation Center. George Comfort & Sons owns and/or manages more than nine million square feet of office properties in the New York Metropolitan area, Washington DC, Beverly Hills, CA and in other locations around the country.

"Our resort has upgraded its linens everywhere, from the guestrooms to the pool to the five-star restaurant. So, the pressure is on to clean, handle and store these goods so they give us the longest useful life possible. What advice can you give me about processing high-thread-count linens?"
Textiles: Elizabeth Easter, Ph.D, University of Kentucky, Lexington, Ky.
High-thread-count linens, especially cotton sheets, were introduced to consumers in the '90s. In the past five years, the hospitality industry has begun offering these so-called "luxury linens" to their customers. Thread counts that traditionally averaged 180-200 have been replaced with thread counts up to 1,500.
There are some misunderstandings about what they actually are. Most people believe that quality, softness and durability increase in a linear way with increasing thread count number. This is not necessarily true. The truth is that it's just not that simple. Thread count is only one measurement to examine when considering luxury linens.
What are the quality indicators of high-thread-count linens?
Chemicals Supply: Carrie Armstrong, Ecolab, Eagan, Minn.
The upgrade of linens throughout the facility creates an opportunity to develop a partnership with each department. Training the end-user on the linens, development of quality standards, par levels, and linen-abuse potential will assist in linen management. Written procedures and standards that are specific to each department for handling the upgraded linens can then be established and practiced.
Processing high-thread-count linens in the laundry has its challenges. High thread counts provide for luxurious linens and often require specific guidelines for processing. It is important to consult the manufacturer and/or read the care labels before laundering and processing. The manufacturer and/or labels will provide guidelines for processing based on the thread count, fabric type, color and manufacture.
Upgrading to high-thread-count linen does not indicate an increase in industrial wash durability. More often, these linens are more delicate due to the nature of the manufacturing of the cotton, the yarn size, and production of the thread count.
Here are items to review and document when upgrading linen, with a goal of reducing mechanical, chemical and stain damage in processing:
After this review, put written procedures and standards into place and begin monitoring. Continued training and education for laundry personnel, as well as the various departments, is necessary. Soon, processing the upgraded linens will be routine, and you'll be prepared for the challenges of optimizing the life of your high-thread-count linens.
Textile/Uniform Rental: John Shoemaker, General Linen & Uniform Service, Detroit, Mich.
Marriott in New Jersey has a large laundry. Per its policy, processed linens are allowed to "rest" for a 24-hour period. In order to make linens last, be sure to maintain plenty of par and avoid quick wash turnarounds.
Likewise, it would be a wonderful time to have the chemical company visit and do titrations with increased regularity.
Full checks should be done. All four pieces of the "washroom pie"—time, temperature, mechanical action and chemical action—should be addressed to assure longevity of life.
Are the washers being under-loaded, resulting in too much chemical action? Is the temperature too hot? Is the run time correct for the upgraded products? Check and recheck all washroom elements to assure the maximum longevity of your textile products.
Tomorrow: In many ways, cotton is easier to wash, but finishing is another issue …

Customer Reviews
R. KRAKORA (Indiana) on February 25, 2013
Great fit, great finger protecton and great grip. The palm hardly wears match after match on tough indoor turf. I cannot believe these gloves are only $60. My last pair saved me an ER run for a possibly severly broken and/or dislocated finger. Took a shot straight on the finger tip and while the spine broke, my finger did not feel a thing. Best indoor glove on the market regardless of price.
B. FERRELL (Texas) on March 18, 2013
The glove is tight fitting. For those of you that prefer your gloves a little bigger, I suggest ordering one size up. Protection with the glove is great.

I'm a layman without a university background in physics / math. Since I don't have a background, reading a paper is more of an effort. Consequently, when I come across an interesting paper, I can't really just give it a glance, and see if it is science, or psuedoscience.
This question is about this paper.
If the advent of the internet has taught me anything, its that there is an inverse relationship between cost to publish and the need to vet what is published
On the other hand, Lisi's E8 paper has taught me that a paper doesn't necessarily need to be correllated to an establishment like the Perimeter Institute or the Institute for Advanced Study (two examples off the top of my head) to be worth reading.
Is the paper worth reading?

Raynaud's phenomenon is a condition in which cold temperatures or strong emotions cause blood vessel spasms that block blood flow to the fingers, toes, ears, and nose.
Raynaud's phenomenon can be associated with other conditions. This is called secondary Raynaud's phenomenon. Most people with the condition are over age 30.
Common causes are:
Raynaud's phenomenon also occurs without another disease, medication, or cause. This is called primary Raynaud's phenomenon. It most often begins in people younger than age 30.
Strong emotions or exposure to the cold causes the fingers, toes, ears, or nose to become white, then turn blue. When blood flow returns, the area becomes red and then later returns to normal color. The attacks may last from minutes to hours.
People with primary Raynaud's phenomenon (no other cause or condition) have problems in the same fingers on both sides, but they do not have very much pain.
People with Raynaud's phenomenon associated with other medical conditions are more likely to have pain or tingling in different fingers. The pain is rarely severe. There may be ulcers on the affected fingers.
Your health care provider can usually make the diagnosis by examining you and asking questions about your health history. However, vascular ultrasound and a cold stimulation test for Raynaud's phenomenon may be done to confirm the diagnosis.
Different blood tests may be done to diagnose arthritic and autoimmune conditions that may cause Raynaud's phenomenon.
The following lifestyle changes may help people with Raynaud's phenomenon:
Your health care provider may prescribe medications to relax the walls of the blood vessels. These include topical nitroglycerin, calcium channel blockers, sildenafil (Viagra), and ace inhibitors.
It is important to treat the condition causing Raynaud's phenomenon.
The outcome varies depending on the cause and the severity of the condition.
Call your health care provider if:
Avoid exposure to the cold. Dress warmly when you cannot avoid cold. If you smoke, stop smoking, as it further constricts the blood vessels.

WP Creating Clickable Images on Gallery Slider
Hello, we have a homepage slider for revolving images. We wanted to feature certain projects on a rotating schedule in the number 2 and number 3 slot but cannot figure out how to make the image clickable with a URL that redirects to the actual portfolio page for that particular project. I am a PHP novice so I am not sure where to even insert the code. Any help would be much appreciated.http://www.buzzbombcreative.com
I'm guessing you got this sorted as I can't see a slider anywhere on the site (correct me if I'm wrong) but I'm going round the site trying to add a little advice to old posts that haven't had any discussion. So...
Most of the time when parts of individual pieces of content are outputted in WordPress, this is done through something called "the loop". This involves spitting out the same types of material for each entry that fits within the criteria specified parameters. The values change according to the particular post. Bearing this in mind, it is likely that you are using a function to get the images. Getting the link for the more detailed portfolio entry can be achieved through the
function.Therefore, you code might like something like:
<?php if(have_posts()): while(have_posts()) the_post ?> // OBJECTS TO OUTPUT FOR EACH POST <a href="<?php the_permalink() // get url to full post ?>"> <?php get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'thumbnail', false) // how you could be getting the image itself ?> </a> <?php endwhile; endif ?>
Hey there, thanks for responding to my post. I just reactivated the slider function on the home page. Please take a look if you have a moment and let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

Crystal Bridges Acquires Contemporary Works
Kerry James Marshall, "Our Town", 1995. Acrylic and printed paper collage on canvas, 100 x 142 inches. Photo: ©Christie's Images Ltd., 2009.
Works of art by two contemporary artists using mixed media to weave ambiguous suburban stories are the latest acquisitions announced by
"Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art
: Kerry James Marshall's Our Town" (1995) and Mary McCleary's "The Falcon Cannot Hear the Falconer" (2008).
"Both Marshall and McCleary are creating compelling works that speak to contemporary life in late 20th/early 21st century America," said Chris Crosman, chief curator. "The idea of home is a recurring motif in American art that is explored in these and other works in our collection."
In Our Town, Kerry James Marshall presents a tidy vision of suburbia not unlike Thornton Wilder's 1938 play of the same title - apron-clad mother, cookie-cutter homes, two kids and their dog - and then undercuts it with the tense expressions and postures of the children in the foreground. Yellow ribbons are wrapped around most of the trees, suggesting war or other tragedy beyond the confines of the neighborhood. The carefully painted houses, clouds and a bright red ball coexist uneasily with graffiti-like scribbles and collaged squares of painted paper. Floating above the image, heralded by bluebirds bearing ribbons, the title of the work calls into question who belongs in this American idyll.
Our Town will be included in Kerry James Marshall, a retrospective exhibition organized by the Vancouver Art Gallery that will be on view May 8, 2010 - January 10, 2011.
"Through his work, Kerry James Marshall considers the visibility of the black subject in Western art and culture," said Kathleen Bartels, director of the Vancouver Art Gallery and co-curator of the upcoming exhibition. "The social critique inherent in his paintings has a global consideration. We are very pleased to present the seminal Our Town."
Born in 1955 in Birmingham, Alabama and raised in South Central Los Angeles in an era marked by racial strife, Kerry James Marshall has explored the social and political experiences of African Americans throughout his career. Best-known for large-scale allegorical paintings, Marshall also works in sculpture, collage, photography, video and installation.

Domestic disaster is explicit in Mary McCleary's The Falcon Cannot Hear the Falconer. A complex assemblage of electrical wire, twigs, paper and glitter painstakingly adhered to heavy paper represents a home engulfed in flames. A young man in the foreground, his face patterned with color, stares outward, confronting the viewer as a witness to the tragedy. The first two lines of William Butler Yeats' poem The Second Coming (1919) appear at the bottom of the collage and lend the work its title:
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer
When asked about the significance of the poem, Mary McCleary wrote: "I believe the poem speaks of man's deaf ear to his Maker. The adolescent boy in the foreground refers to the naïve fantasy of the primitive that has been a part of western thought since Romanticism. Does the face paint indicate the boy is a clown, a member of a tribe or both?"
Mary McCleary's visual stories are often inspired by literary, historical and biblical sources depicted in the present day. Based in Nacogdoches, Texas, she is Regent's Professor of Art Emeritus at Stephen F. Austin State University, Texas, where she taught from 1975 to 2005. She received her bachelor of fine arts degree in printmaking and drawing at Texas Christian University and her master of fine arts degree in graphics from the University of Oklahoma. Her work is in many public collections, including those of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the El Paso Museum of Art and the San Antonio Museum of Art.

WOW! Absolutely brilliant! - Tigerlili
Not since "City of God" have I been so enthralled by a film. This film is obviously about communication, or the lack of it, in a disjointed era. There are 4 different stories going on here, with tenuous connections to each other. The connections are nearly, but not quite, irrelevant. I found two of these stories to be so gripping that I was emersed entirely, & would temporarily forget about the other stories. I thought the Tokyo story was utterly beautiful, & heartbreakingly sad. Amongst many highlights, I have never seen a club scene captured so brilliantly. The Mexico story was harrowing, & the American cops were just as "pleasant" as those I met in the US. The acting is faultless throughout, and the direction is classy & understated. Absolutely superb. 5 stars all the way.

1. | jewdar | ||
The innate ability to detect Jewishness in another person. Like a sixth sense. "Yo check out the guy with the pigtails and yammulke. Jewdar off the charts."
"Oh you mean Jedediah over there? No, he's Presbyterian, obviously, bitch." Some guy: "Shalom baby, 'jew' lookin' mighty fine tonight." Girl: "What!!?!? I'm not Jewish, motherfucker. I'm Hindu. Nice jewdar." Some guy: "Oh, sorry, I didn't see that red dot on your head. And that kimono or whatever it is. Oh yeah, and I guess you do look sort of Indian too. So, how 'bout you take me back to the reservation with you? You can be Pocahontas and I'll be the John Smith. Then we can bang." (gets bitch-slapped) |
2. | jewdar | ||
An insanely useful way of detecting the presence of another Jew in the near vicinity mainly by looks or auditory sample. You are one lucky bastard if you posess this and are not in fact a Jew yourself. Randomness #1: Hey, is that guy-?
"Guy": SHALOM! Randomness #2: Hella yeah. |
3. | Jewdar | ||
The ability/gift to see that a person is part of the jewish culture/religion.
Short for jew-radar. Daniel! Our substitute art teacher is jewish, lets ask him if he has jew pride.
4. | Jewdar | ||
1. The ability to spot Jewish people
2. Gaydar for Jews 1. My Jewdar tells me you're not Jewish.
2. That chick has Jewdar. |
5. | jewdar | ||
The special power posessed only by Jews that enables them to identify Jews by looks or, at most, hearing them speak. It is imporant to note that non-Jews do not and cannot have this power, as many of them naively believe that all Jews are fair-skinned with huge noses and jew-fros. Only some of us are, shmucks. You'd be surprised at how many Jews come in here.... my jewdar is off the charts.
6. | jewdar | ||
the innate ability to find currency and save it as though it was a small child. His jewdar lead him straight to the money laying on the ground at the bar that no one else had even noticed.
7. | Jewdar | ||
knowing when a Jewish person is within ten feet of you. my friend can always tell when there is a doctor or a lawyer in the room, she has great Jewdar.

Thanks for that. My order is going in. Hope you manage to get some good waves.
Here is something from Matt In response to a question on his blog site regarding different dims to the pu stock
'andi responded...
hi matt,
have been riding a pu version of a 5'10 mini in southern mex the last 4 weeks. didn't get any big swell but you could feel the potential of the board on the occasional sneaky set... made me feel more confident and under control on critical takeoffs and turns compared to my subscorcher but worked as great on the small days too. stoked. thank you.
my question:
just saw the mini on the fwire website.
for what reasons did you change the dims & volumes compared to your standard stock ones?
In case of the 5'10, the fst is 19.25 x 2.38 & 27.8litre as opposed to stock dims 19.5 x 2.38 & 28.5litre ??
thanks for your input.
Matt Biolos responded...
I am not really sure, more than I wanted them to have some variety. I think the stock dims on the PU are a bit on the small wave, full wide size and for the FW I wanted to make them kinda an indestructible travel board for decent to good waves.'
Sounds like a ripper.
yeah there is a bit of difference between the two, but they both definitely are rippers...

Its sweet taste and low calorie count have made Greek yogurt a product thats increasingly filling up the shopping carts of New Yorkers.
Experts say the high demand has hiked up the number of Greek yogurt manufacturers, causing a ripple effect that has buoyed the demand for milk from dairy farmers statewide.
In fact, Greek yogurt plants are hatching and growing at a rate thats siphoned off much of the local milk supply at surrounding dairy farms the pace of growth is too fast for farmers to keep up.
Though the north country is outside of the main network of Greek yogurt plants in Western and Central New York, manufacturers demand for milk has had a noticeable ripple effect here, too. Milk cooperatives here are now taking as much product as they can get, said Jay M. Matteson, agricultural coordinator for Jefferson County. Its partly why about 20 dairy farms in Jefferson County are expanding their milking operations this year.
The Greek yogurt demand in the state has certainly tightened up the milk supply across the state, he said. Its keeping manufacturers demand for milk from our farms high so theres a place for it to be shipped.
Farmers in the north country, who battle low milk prices and low crop yields, are increasing the size of their dairy operations if they can, Mr. Matteson said. Theyre expanding the size of their barns to make space for more cows in some cases, or keeping the young stock theyve raised to sell to produce milk instead.
Farmers know manufacturers need milk, he said. I know one farmer in particular (in Jefferson County) who purchased another farm that was out of operation because his children are interested in taking it over.
But todays milk prices are still down from last year in spite of the high demand in New York state, Mr. Matteson said. Prices were $17 to $18 per hundredweight last year but have now sunk to the $16 range.
Mr. Matteson said the oversupply of milk in the U.S. is why prices are still low in the state, even though demand here is higher than ever.
Thats whats frustrating for our farmers who are watching milk prices drop in New York state, where the milk supply is tight, he said. Were not able to take advantage of the local demand.
Its tough for farmers to expand their operations when theyre not earning enough revenue by selling their milk. Its a problem for most of the farmers here, who are barely getting by from year to year, said Arthur F. Baderman, agricultural outreach coordinator for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Jefferson County. While farmers hear the news that the Greek yogurt industry is booming, he said, theyre still cautious in making new investments.
All improvement projects on farms to get more milk per animal add costs, but farmers need a higher price for their milk to afford them. Many farmers are still trying to get caught up from when the milk prices dropped in 2009. It takes several years, he said, adding that milk prices tanked to between $11 and $12 per hundredweight that year.
The local milk supply in Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence counties is now almost maxed out, Mr. Baderman said. He said Great Lakes Cheese in Adams, for example, cant fill its milk quota from local suppliers to keep up with its rate of processing growth.
Todays low milk supply in the north country is why most of the Greek yogurt plants are hatched in Western and Central New York instead, where they can fuel their operations with a greater supply, Mr. Baderman said. Yogurt plants need a lot to operate: three gallons of milk are need for every gallon of Greek yogurt.
I doubt if therell be any Greek yogurt made around here unless one of the dairy plants expands to make it, Mr. Baderman said. Theres no incentive for any plant to make it here because most of the milk is in other parts of the state.
Nonetheless, north country farmers already are reaping the benefits of the yogurt boom indirectly.
The majority of farmers here ship their milk to Dairylea Cooperative Inc., Syracuse, which has grown in a major way from the Greek yogurt boom, said Jennifer J. Huson, director of communications. The dairy farmers cooperative, which ships milk to giants such as Chobani Yogurt, garners milk from about 1,000 farms across the state, she said. Jefferson and St. Lawrence counties are its top producers.
Cooperatives such as Dairylea are expected to have ample future demand as more yogurt producers set up shop, Ms. Huson said. The escalating yogurt demand also has offset the waning demand for fluid milk products.
A lot of that milk is being shifted to yogurt now because not as many people are purchasing fluid milk, she said. Farmers across the state are benefiting from the Greek yogurt boom.
The state Legislature is trying to help dairy farmers produce enough milk to meet the rising demand with tax breaks and grants. Still, farmers will have to increase their total production by at least 15 percent to supply the growing demand, said Steve Ammerman, manager of public affairs for the New York Farm Bureau.
Farmers face a number of headwinds they could do without, Mr. Ammerman said. The Farm Bureau is trying to discontinue costly regulations implemented by the state Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations program that kick in at dairy farms with herds of 200 or more cows. The Environmental Protection Agency dairy program, by contrast, calls for regulations for herds with 300 or more cows.
Increasing the threshold would make it easier to operate and expand operations, he said.
Mr. Ammerman said about 800 of the states dairy farms have between 100 and 199 cows. If that group increased its herd size by only 10 percent, the state would produce an additional 160 million pounds of milk a year.
