Microgaming online casinos are some of the best that people are going to play anywhere. There's a reason why Microgaming has managed to be the leader in online gaming since 1994, and not just because they showed up at the right place and the right time twenty-two years ago. Microgaming online casinos are constantly updating, with new games released every month and new opportunities for the people who plan on succeeding in this constantly-changing environment. People can go to the Royal Vegas Online Casino website all the time, and it is still never going to be the same website twice.
Microgaming online casinos are still not going to be available to United States players. However, this is largely a consequence of the gambling laws of the United States. Microgaming online casinos could theoretically be open to United States players at some point or another, which is only going to increase the scope and power of Microgaming online casinos further. These are the online casinos that people will try when they're just starting out, and they're also usually going to be the online gaming casinos that people stick with when they're trying to develop further as casino game players.
The web-based instant play games of the Microgaming online casinos were completely new and different at one point. Today, they have become standard in the industry, but it has always been the Microgaming online casinos that started the whole trend, and they have continued to innovate within the trend as well. People are going to have a great experience whether they are playing table games and slot games alone on websites like the https://www.royalvegascasino.com/casino-games/table-games/ website, and they're also going to have a great time with any of the games that require live casino interfaces.
Many people still like the experience of being able to interact with anyone else during their gaming sessions. The live dealer interfaces of the Microgaming online casinos are some of the best that people are going to find anywhere, which is going to drastically enhance the experience. People can go to the https://www.royalvegascasino.com/casino-games/table-games/ website and enjoy lots of different types of gaming experiences, which will allow them to feel as if they are exploring several different casinos all at the same time. Microgaming online casinos might as well be several different casinos all at once, since people can enjoy so many different types of online gaming experiences.
The Royal Vegas Online Casino will represent a lot of what the best of the Microgaming online casinos have to offer. All of the most popular games are going to be found there, at least for the most part. Usually, if there are any gaps in the catalog, these gaps are going to be filled relatively quickly. People go to the Royal Vegas Online Casino website in order to really expand their repertoire after they have become seasoned online casino game players. Microgaming online casinos work at attracting a lot of new players in the first place, and they work just as hard at making sure that they keep seasoned players.

Ex-NBA Player Denied Seat On Train. Racism or Size-ism?!?
Liberal media outlets side with minority victims (perhaps to a fault), while Conservative outlets without fail (with. out. fail.) are already going to side with the white guy (double bonus if he's got a gun!). These are the rules. People on one side are gonna be slandered as having white guilt, those on the other are called racists. And when everyone's a racist, nobody's a racist and everyone's a winner and the ratings (or page views, take your pick) pile right on up. None of these diametrically opposed viewpoints actually addresses why people are inclined to still be racist in 2016, or discuss how the harmful vestiges of slavery, Jim Crow and Lowry's Seasoning Salt (#StayWoke) actually contribute to the helpless situations people in certain communities have to deal with daily manifest themselves, but whatever. Post that racial hot take and watch the numbers pile up.
I couldn't help but think about how much this "run a race story, any race story" phenomenon has become so commonplace in American media when I saw this story in today's Post.
Etan Thomas, a former NBA player who is also a poet, author and activist, was involved in what he said was an ugly racial incident while he was looking for a seat on a crowded train recently.I had the pleasure of meeting Thomas a couple of times when he played for the Wizards. He's a thoughtful, incredibly well spoken guy whose intellect separates him from the stereotypical dumb jock NBA player.[1] On the other hand, as someone who's had the pleasure of meeting Thomas a couple of times I can tell you that the man is absolutely gigantic. I mean, seriously, he literally looks like a giant. The dude's feet are the size of cinder blocks. He looks like a cartoon sized version of a real person.
A white woman on the train took issue with having Thomas, a 6-foot-10 center who spent most of his career with the Washington Wizards and played college ball at Syracuse, sit next to her, though Thomas said she had no problem with a white man who made the same request moments later. Thomas told the story on Facebook:
"I ask this lady if I could sit next to her (very politely and I soften my voice as to not frighten her) and she says someone is sitting here," he wrote. "So I go to the next seat. Now, less than 2 mins later a man (who happens to be white) asks if he can sit there and she says why sure let me move my stuff."
Thomas, 38, decided to confront the woman.
"I ask ummmmm did you just not want ME to sit next to you? Were you scared? Not comfortable with a Black Man sitting next to you? And she says lol smh don't pull the race card stuff with me I dated a Black guy in college."
At that point, the man sitting next to the woman offered to get up, but Thomas had other ideas. He was taking a photo of her alongside the extremely uncomfortable-looking white man.
"I said no need I'mma just take this pic and make a Facebook post about it. So then she says did you just take a pic of me? Well I'm going to tell the conductor that you're over here illegally taking pics of ppl without their consent.
If he was asking to sit in the open seat on my Acela to Penn Station I'd comply because I'd love to hear him tell some off the record stories about the Wizards, and also because he's big enough to kick my ass if I said no. But mostly the former. That said, would he be one uncomfortable assed trip with a 6-10 265 pound man sitting next to me? Prolly? Is it entirely possible that the unnamed white woman in this story is a Heat fan and/or just didn't want to endure the discomfort of sitting next to a man-giant for the next 4 hours? Possibly. We'll never know because she hasn't spoken about this incident (yet).[2]
I don't discount that the woman might have been racist and simply not wanted to sit next to a black man because [insert random inexcusable excuse here]. I've has plenty such incidents of microaggressions where I've been denied a seat at a bar (!), or a preferred table at lunch, or a seat on a train by someone who didn't look like me, only to see someone else who also didn't look like me get that privilege moments later. Hell, I had a woman clutch her purse when she sat next to me on a plane and that was just a few months ago. This is the daily racism that some people just don't get. When this sorta shit happens over the course of 30-40 some years on a semi-regular basis it makes you paranoid, bitter, and yeah, it almost conditions you to expect sh*t to pop off and might even cloud your consciousness to the point that you see things that aren't even there. Having people explicitly tell you that there's no way in the world you coulda possibly seen what you might have possibly seen just makes it even worse.
That's what racism looks like in 2016. And yeah, you're right to call people on their sh*t as Thomas did. You could argue whether or not putting this woman's face online was the right move (I wouldn't have done it personally) but you still need to call people out. Challenge them.
That's the only way things get better.
Question: Was Etan Thomas imagining racism here, or does this sorta thing happen everyday?
[1] I'll just conveniently ignore the fact that Thomas, a very educated man who's written books and poetry is writing on a 4th grade level here. What's that all about, homie?
[2] The ole' "I banged a black guy in college, I can't possibly be racist!" line is the new "Some of my best friends are black". Very classy, ma'am.

When Did R&B Music Become So Foul-Mouthed?!?
As a guy now firmly entrenched in his (early) 40's with a wife, 3 kids, a day job and a mortage, I find myself frequently revisiting my youth via the magic of Spotify. While I'm perfectly content listening to what passes for "hip hop" nowadays, I've got the illest 80's and 90's R&B playlists. Sorry, I just can't listen to today's R&B, and I'm not even sure if the genre, on which a rapper is featured more than the singer, even properly qualifies as R&B anymore.
Diet Drake ripoffs like Bryson Tiller and Tory Lanez are what pass for R&B today. Sure, there's still plenty of old man R&B being made that plays on the "grown and sexy" stations in most urban markets, but who wants to hear Keith Washington and Will Downing? Not even me, and I own albums those guys made. So yeah, I just stick with the older stuff, because the newer stuff sucks.
Case in point is many R&B artist's (new?) tendency to talk sh*t and curse. Not that this is anything new. As you purists will surely tell me, R&B singers like Millie Jackson and Clarence Carter have trafficked in low brow, crude content since the 60's. The difference is, those songs, and those artists were always seen as a novelty of sorts. A comical sideshow, not the norm.
Now, you can't listen to a song without being serenaded by curse words and called a "nigga". I just pulled up a random playlist on Spotify and played the first 10 or so songs. Rihanna ("Needed Me"), Tiller ("Exchange"), Tinashe ("Ride Of Your Life"), Chris Brown ("Back To Sleep"), Lanez ("Say It"), and Eric Bellinger ("Valet") all had the same recurring themes of sex, cheating, revenge and retaliation with enough curse words to make Samuel Jackson blush. If a generation of black kids are being raised on this sorta sh*t, what chance do we have to flourish as a people?
By comparison, a random song from my 90's playlist, Monifah's "I Miss You", sounds like a relic of another era. Which is sorta is. And I like that. A lot.
You youngsters can keep that ratchet sh*t. I'll stick with my oldies.
Question: Do I have any valid points about how awful today's R&B music is, or do I just sound like the suburban soccer dad I've morphed into?

Hospitals in New York Escalate Competition for Cancer Patients
By JENNIFER STEINHAUER
Published: January 4, 1999
The vast prestige, power and -- critics would argue -- arrogance of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center can be measured by its physical space.
It is on York Avenue in the 60's -- inconvenient, like many prestigious New York hospitals, to public transportation. Many of its hospital floors feel grim and dated, with harsh lighting and nurses' stations enclosed in Plexiglass. Its parking lot is dismal, and some waiting areas are about as welcoming as the average public hospital's.
Yet historically, Sloan-Kettering has been the place to go for cancer treatment in New York, because of its prestigious doctors and esteemed reputation for clinical research, and the promising drugs trials it conducts. Ambience has never been the point.
But lately, curious things have been happening at Sloan-Kettering. It is building a new ambulatory care center at 53d Street and Third Avenue, smack next to several subway lines. The main hospital is undergoing a face lift: peach-toned walls, with still-life paintings, are replacing blinding white ones, sand-colored carpeting is being added to match, and nurses' stations are now open and accessible. In recent years, it has also opened a modern, attractive center for breast cancer patients on East 64th Street, complete with comfortable furniture and a shop that sells hats, scarves and other accessories.
And last week, Sloan-Kettering's 72-year-old president, Paul A. Marks, said he would retire this year, perhaps paving the way for further changes in the center's way of doing business, which at this point has included all but ignoring the managed-care movement.
This is hardly enlightenment in a vacuum. Cancer is becoming an essential part of any hospital's business, and the major medical centers in the city are aggressively trying to nibble away at Sloan-Kettering's market share. While this concentration on cancer patients is a nationwide phenomenon, experts say the new competition is particularly fevered in New York, where there are already more centers that have the official designation of the National Cancer Institute -- and its financing -- than in most other regions.
''Right now, New York is the hotbed of competition,'' said Christopher Demby, who runs the Oncology Round Table program for the Advisory Board, a health care research firm. ''There is action being taken by every player in the market now.''
Hospitals are building new centers devoted to the disease, and poaching some of the country's biggest names in cancer care -- some from Sloan-Kettering itself -- to run and staff them. They are investing in expensive technology, adding all manner of consumer-friendly fringe benefits, like support groups and libraries, to their cancer wards, and pouring money into advertising campaigns that hawk cancer treatments in a way once reserved for gentle innovations like birthing centers.
''We are here to show that Memorial is no longer the only game in town,'' said Marilyn Halper, executive director of Beth Israel Medical Center's gleaming new cancer center, in the Zeckendorf Tower on Union Square.
Carving off one disease and homing in on it is an important trend in medicine, especially chronic diseases that require long-term care. Diabetes, for instance, is also getting lots of attention. But few illnesses have attracted quite the same focus and investment as cancer.
The reason is largely financial: Cancer is big business. Experts believe that cancer will soon overtake cardiovascular disease as the No. 1 killer in America as the population ages and cardio-care becomes more advanced.
Cancer offers other financial incentives beyond the sheer flow of cases: the disease is still fairly immune from managed-care penny pinching, while at the same time, treatment advances have helped to streamline care. And there is constant excitement in the field: there are more than 300 cancer drugs in the pipeline.
Offering Convenience And New Technology
Much of the activity involves the opening of outpatient clinics, which are starting to flourish across the country as new technologies and changing medical economics allow patients to have chemotherapy and radiation treatments without staying overnight in a hospital.
Continuum Health Partners, which runs Beth Israel and St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center, has built the new outpatient center at Union Square, and beefed up its breast cancer program at St. Luke's. It has poached several doctors from other, far more prestigious cancer centers to run many of its programs, and has spent over $400,000 last year on cancer advertising campaigns.
Over at New York University, the medical center has carved off neuro-oncology as its brightest attraction, investing $10 million alone in a rare Gamma knife that administers beams of gamma radiation without surgical incision to the brain, and $2.5 million more on special M.R.I. machines, which enable doctors to rule out malignancies without a biopsy. It also lured Dr. Michael Gruber, a prestigious neuro-oncologist from the University of California in Los Angeles, to run the unit.

Posted on 03/21/2013 10:37:57 AM PDT by TSgt
Yoko Ono tweeted a photo of John Lennons bloody glasses this week.
Why? Well, she was celebrating her 44th wedding anniversary to the late Beatles singer.
Ono sat down to reflect about Lennons life and death this week and she came to the conclusion that there have been far too many gun deaths in the world in the 33 years since Lennon was assassinated.
Ono wrote on Twitter: Over 1,057,000 people have been killed by guns in the USA since John Lennon was shot and killed on 8 Dec 1980.
The singer / artist sent out several more messages about gun violence and how it feels to lose a loved one. Ono says that, even though Lennon was killed more than three decades ago, she still feels the pain of his absence.
Ono wrote: The death of a loved one is a hollowing experience. After 33 years our son Sean and I still miss him. Yoko Ono Lennon.
Along with her messages, Ono posted a sound clip of Lennon talking about a peace. (You can listen to it below.) But the most talked about item from Yokos anniversary tweets was a photo of John Lennons bloody glasses.
6 shots and they all missed her.
Perhaps the bullets were scared of her singing?
yoko ono is, and always will be, a vile -itch.
Did she mention in her tweets the millions of people whose lives were saved because they were armed and able to defend themselves?
I give Ono credit for this much: She's candid about her desire to ban ALL private gun ownership. She's honest about that, unlike these incrementalists who lie that they they won't ever ban handguns or shotguns.
Out of all the women John could have had, he picked her.
Too much acid I guess...
Hey Yoko,that's a pretty gruesome memento you have there.
I bet she charges admission to see it!
I've never met a women who could gold dig a corpse.
Did she mention Waco, Ruby Ridge, no knock entries at the wrong address, innocent bystanders killed by cops who can't shoot straight, potential murderers, rapists, thugs, put down by those defending themselves, or innocents killed by murderers, rapist and and thugs of those NOT armed?
Yeah, I'll bet Julian misses him too you b*tch.
But he doesn't matter to you, you've made that quite clear. Selling letters HE SENT TO JOHN for your own greed.
Gah, this woman makes me ill.
He had to be out of his mind to sleep with that vile creature.
She does charge admission for his artwork exhibits that she drags around the world. She loves the fame and cash like all liberal media whores who proclaim they don't care about the cash.
Yoko's claimed death number of 1,057,000 sounds high. Does it include self defense? Suidcides? Detroit?
Assuming (incorrectly) a population of about 300M people, it would also be .0001% of the population each year. Not discounting the deaths, but how would such a rate compare to being struck by lighteing? Or being hit by the beer truck crossing the street while reading the email on blackberry?
I guess Yoko feels using tragic deaths to support the gun grab agenda is now acceptable given Harry Reid's idiotic comments on the Senate floor.
Whatever Yoko, just promise not to sing.
Hey Ono, how many innocent people were murdered via abortions since 1980?
are you calling for bans on abortions?
So she's honest about being an idiot? Good on her. /s
Actually, after reading several biographies on him, he was raised by a rancid b*tch and when push come to shove, it's what he gravitated to. Sad.
A guy I worked with almost hit me when I told him that it was no loss when John was killed. Boy did he get hot.
Maybe close to 2/3 of them were suicide. There are other ways of doing that. Probably close to 1/3 homicide - will we ever stop bad people?
Who picked them up that night ... yoko?
If so, what was she thinking to not wash them clean?
The cops or paramedics?
And if THEY gave them to her, it was after the fact by some time ...what was she thinkiung THEN to not clean them ?
Later in life, she shows Sean and he must'a said SOMEthing ... what kind of conversation was THAT ?
I liked Lennon's partnership with McCartney and the Beatles in general ...
and to quote The Kingston Trio;
"But That Was Yesterday, And Yesterday's Done"
Imagine there's no Yoko. It's easy if you try.
I'll bet it does, along with gang-on-gang shootings, takedowns by homeowners defending themselves against intruders, and suicides.
Inconvenient truths...
The only way Yoko gets that number of 1,000,000 plus is to add homicides and suicides. Murders by guns is on average around 10,000 a year. Suicide deaths (using a firearm) are around 19,000 a year.
When you consider 55,000 people are killed every year in auto accidents (and much of those by drunk driving) why not ban all cars, alcohol, knives, ropes, ???
And regarding deaths by hanging oneself, maybe we should pass laws that ropes can only hold thirty pounds of weight, or sheets that dissolve when lifted over a certain height - or make a law that no one can do "gravity violence" by picking their feet off the floor with the intent to hang themselves - ban ladders and high buildings. . . (sarc.)
More like 0.01%.
One lens smudged up with "blood" and the other is pristine?
Not buying it. It's as fake as the notion that Yoko Ono has singing talent.
re: "If so, what was she thinking to not wash them clean?"
I'm sure she considers it "art". Next to Hillary, I know of no other woman who has cashed in on her husband's notoriety than her. Without John Lennon, know one would give her the time of day.
There have also been almost as many deaths from diabetes - so Mayor Bloomie is trying to grab our Big Gulps
There have also been more than 7,000,000 deaths from heart disease - so Mayor Bloomie is trying to regulate our meals
There have also been more than 6,000,000 deaths from cancer - and I'm sure Mayor Bloomie has a plan for that too
I find Mayor Bloomie's frequent intrusions into our private lives depressing - and there have been more than 470,000 dead due to suicide since John Lennon died. Perhaps the best thing we could do to save lives would be to remove Bloomie and other big government liberals from office?
As fate would have it, I happened to save the Newsweak copy of 8 Dec 1980. John Lennon graces the cover. It's up for sale. Bidding opens at $150,000. Any takers?.
Agreed. Joko Oh-No should be banned from screeching. One could hardly call it singing. Actually an insult to screeching if you dig hard enough.
Of course they're fake. Ono is an artist. They are just an art object, not an artifact.
Sell it to the Pawn Stars. They'll talk you down to $20.00 LOL
you must be too young to remember The Beatles.
From a purely artistic point of view Lennon/McCartney were brilliant together. Not like the mindless drivel that came after them
It would be WORTH IT for you to peruse their entire catalog- you will be amazed by some of it (the stuff that is NOT played over and over and over especially)
She'd be wiping restaurant tables or vacuuming hotel rooms somewhere. Sure as hell she wouldn't be making a living based on musical talent by ANY stretch of the imagination.
I didn't notice the one clean, one not until it was just pointed out
SOMEone stopped the cleaning or GOT stopped from cleaning.
SOMEone was an evil voice .. "WAIT! .. Those'll be worth MONEY someday"
Hmmm .. yeah, yer right ... OK
Of COURSE I don't know every song writer, but of the ones I DO know (of) ... L&M
EXCEPT for the insufferable "Hey Jude" with its 16X repeated refrain.
I once made a similar statement to my father. He responded that Lennon was no prize, either.
The Viking Kitties singing a tribute to Yoko Oh No...
that's a pretty stupid thing to say

I'm a Viet Nam combat vet so I remember them. I said nothing about the Beatles as a group. John L. was a POS. His ilk spit on me and my brothers when we came home. Can you "Imagine" that!
"Here, Yoko... let me wipe those down for you!...... A little Windex and they're good as new.... There ya go!"
Hmmm. I won't be able to finance my next Carnival cruise with that chicken feed.
I wonder how much those blood stained glasses would go for at a Sotheby's New York Auction?
If it's in good condition you could probably get a decent price. You might check ebay. Good luck.

Yep. That did it for me too. They were supposed to sing we didn't need their opinions or any other "entertainer's for that matter. The stupid just don't get it.

A Nobel Peace Prize hopeful, apparently.
This was a photo from long ago- if I remember correctly it was used as an album cover for a collections of songs made after his death
I have yet to hear of a gun killing someone of its own accord.

Donaire-Rigondeaux: Top Rank Explore Radio City Card
By Keith Idec
A deal is nearly complete for Nonito Donaire to fight Guillermo Rigondeaux on April 13, but the site for the HBO main event has to be chosen before it can be officially announced.
Officials for Top Rank Inc., which promotes Donaire (31-1, 20 KOs) and Rigondeaux (11-0, 8 KOs), will meet next week to determine the viability of bringing the 122-pound title fight to Radio City Music Hall in New York. The Theater at Madison Square Garden, the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif., and several sites in Texas also are under consideration.
Donaire fought twice at Home Depot Center last year. He defeated South Africa's Jeffrey Mathebula (26-4-2, 14 KOs) by unanimous decision there July 7 and stopped Japan's Toshiaki Nishioka (39-5-3, 24 KOs) there Oct. 13.
The Oct. 13 card drew well (7,665 fans), thanks in part to the highly anticipated Brandon Rios-Mike Alvarado junior welterweight fight that was part of HBO's doubleheader. A crowd of about 3,700 attended the July 7 card.
The 30-year-old Donaire, a consensus top five pound-for-pound fighter, also fought in The Theater at Madison Square Garden in October 2011, when he out-pointed Argentina's Omar Narvaez (38-1-2, 20 KOs) in an infamously dull 12-round bantamweight title fight. That card drew 4,425 fans.
There has not been a boxing card at Radio City Music Hall since Roy Jones Jr. defeated David Telesco in an HBO-televised light heavyweight title fight there Jan. 15, 2000. Radio City Music Hall can accommodate approximately 5,000 fans for boxing, about the same as The Theater.
Keith Idec covers boxing for The Record and Herald News, of Woodland Park, N.J., and BoxingScene.com. He can be reached on Twitter @Idecboxing.

What are the pros? Easy to grow - likes heat
What are the cons? Tastes better cooked than raw
Malabar Spinach is easy to grow and loves humidity and heat. I've also found edible Amaranth is worth growing in the hot south - here is a blog post on my experience with those two. http://earthlychow.com/vegetable-greens-hot-humid-summer-malabar-spinach-edible-amaranth

15 out of 16 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? I love the taste. Easy to grow
What are the cons? Doesn't grow all year!!
I got the seeds last year and shared some with my brother in Tennessee. He has an organic garden that he has worked for years...with lots of Goat poop so the spinach really grew for him. His family and friends all loved it. I enjoy eating it raw and juicing it. From the reviews, I will have to try drying it out this year.
I started some this spring in my grow room just to make sure the seed was good and it sprouted 100 percent. In fact, these plants are doing so well that I transplanted them to their own pots and am planning to put them out soon. I also have lots of them sprouting from where they grew last year.
I like the taste of it even if the leaves are large.
I planted one plant in a more shaded spot in soil that wasn't worked much and that plant did nothing the whole year. The plants that really took off for me had a lot of organic matter and manure in it. Here is a video I did of my first year...If that is allowed: https://youtu.be/U0JsMbPocYw

What are the pros? Delicious, resembles spinach
What are the cons? Gotta pinch off flowers
This grows easy in the tropics of Hawaii. I've also grown it on So. Florida. It is the closest in flavor to leaf spinach that grows in colder climates. In Hawaii, it grows very rapidly and produces large, succulent leaves. This season, I began pinching the many flowers off in hopes that more energy would be devoted to green, leave growth. This plant will forever be in my garden. It's delicious and nutritional. I recommend it in sub- and tropical locations.
8 out of 8 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? Plant colors and vibrance
What are the cons? Initially slow growing
Started outside in zone 6 in late May 2015. The plants didn't get full sun until about 11a.m., but then had full sun 7 hours a day. Began as a slow grower, but finally took off; that could have been because of the cold soil. Grew on a 4ft. trellis, but the vine put out another 2ft. of vine. Beautiful purple, colored, vines and the leaves were glossy. Used very little in salads, but used in stir fry regularly.
The vines grew through the summer with temperatures reaching in the 90 deg. F. in the days with the nights into the 50s & 60s. Flower buds appeared Aug/Sept. but didn't open before I cleared the garden space out for the season. I will grow again in 2016, but will start the seeds inside and will try one plant in a pot to see if I can bring it into the house for the fall and winter...

CITY OF NEWBURGH — A wounded 24-year-old ran up the street on Tuesday night, collapsing in a stranger's doorway.
"Help me," Keith Chapman said. "I'm dying."
Pamela McKoy said she didn't recognize the young man. He'd barely made it past the front steps of her Renwick Street home when he fell onto the floor in front of her, she said. It was just after 9:40 p.m., and the whole neighborhood had heard a barrage of gunfire moments before. The sound was so loud that people a mile away heard blasts. McKoy looked at the young man. She said he didn't seem to be bleeding until he touched his hand to his mouth. She hurried out of the hallway to call police. When she returned, he had disappeared.
"I just tried to help him," said McKoy, shaking as she recounted the encounter.
While McKoy called police, two women loaded Chapman into a Suzuki sport utility vehicle and drove him to the Newburgh campus of St. Luke's Cornwall Hospital. He was pronounced dead shortly after arriving.
Police dispatched cops throughout the city, sending a couple to the hospital and others to the scene of the shooting, near William Street and Benkard Avenue. Officers quickly closed off the neighborhood with yellow tape, controlling access to three or four blocks in the Washington Heights section of Newburgh. Patrol officers manned the perimeter until about 9 a.m. on Wednesday, when they reopened the streets. City detectives returned shortly after with state police investigators to canvass the neighborhoods. The Orange County district attorney also assisted with the investigation. The gunman was still at large on Wednesday.
Chapman, a fixture in the Heights known as "Yayo," was just seven months into a new chance. He had returned from prison in February, and he earned a discharge in July from parole following a drug conviction.
Friends gathered Tuesday night beyond the police tape line to light candles. It wasn't until late Wednesday morning that McKoy realized she knew the young man's mother.
The killing, the fourth of the year in Newburgh, drew reporters, police, politicians and activists to the neighborhood throughout the morning. Rumors circulated of a killer with a high-powered assault rifle, and the nature of Newburgh's violent tendencies dominated most discussions.
"I'm very upset about this, about how it happened — this whole violence thing," Mayor Judy Kennedy said.
It's a reminder, she said, of the need to redirect the city's young with better opportunities and guidance. She was joined on a corner by Mark Coolidge, uncle of Michael Lembhard, who was killed in March during a confrontation with police. Coolidge has proposed a gun buyback as well as a program that would give young men and women the option of cleaning city streets to satisfy court-ordered community service hours.
"We need the community to step up," Coolidge said.
Activist Omari Shakur watched from across the street. There are no jobs in Newburgh, he said, and young men without a way to make a living have turned indifferent to the world around them.
"Right now," Shakur said, "they don't care."
McKoy walked slowly on Wednesday to the corner store for a cup of coffee and back to her apartment, retracing Chapman's route from the night before. She's just so tired, she said over and over.
"I hate it here," she whispered.
Three new candles burned on the sidewalk outside.

Facebook wants to get into China. Or, at least that's what Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has led us to think. On a recent visit to China, he declared, "If you want to connect the whole world, how can you leave out 1.6 billion people?" Well, Mr. Zuckerberg will have to find a way to crack the Great Firewall — the impregnable Chinese Internet blocking system in place. No Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube on the Chinese mainland. Because of social unrest in Xinjiang over a year ago, the Chinese government has put in secure measures to contain social media traffic.
But, as China looks to guard itself against intrusion, the country is also seizing on new initiatives to catalyze innovation through a drive to increase the number of patents, with the goal of 2 million by the year 2015, up from 300,000 applications in 2010. In The New York Times, David J. Kappos, director of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office explains: "The leadership in China knows that innovation is its future, the key to higher living standards and long-term growth. They are doing everything they can to drive innovation, and China's patent strategy is part of that broader plan."
Having just returned from China as part of the International Society for Technology Education led People to People delegation, which comprised thirty U.S. school and university educators, I was able to experience the limits of social media in China, and to see the engine of innovation at work.
I toured and visited schools in Beijing, Xian, and Shanghai, and saw primary and secondary schools, and universities. From the remote, rural Dongtun primary school, to the high tech, futuristic Shanghai TV University, I viewed a China as wide as the Mongolian steppe in terms of technology integration, access, infrastructure, and innovation.
At the Dongtun primary school, situated 90 minutes outside of Xian in central China, there was no heat (it was 20 degrees outside), and students sat in tight rows, doing recitation work. The students wore winter hats, coats, and gloves to stay warm, and while there was a coal burning stove in the corner of each classroom, it did not generate much heat. There is one computer for the whole village, and its use centers around increasing knowledge about agriculture for the farmers. The Chinese government has committed to putting one computer in every village, and the computer lives inside the home of one person. The purpose is to give access to agricultural information.
In sharp contrast to the rural schooling, the work at Shanghai TV University is visionary and accelerating at a fast pace. They took us into a surround vision room with interactive screens on the floors and walls. It was a stunning atmosphere, with touch screen, and holographic imagery. The Microsoft Envisioning the Future project is what comes closest to what we saw. Shanghai TV University claims that they are a year away from deployment in homes and schools. In our discussion with the Shanghai TV University educators, they expressed interest in learning about differentiated instruction, one to one computing, collaboration, and creativity. They want to begin to move away from textbooks, and exam focused teaching, to utilize multi-modal approaches to make teaching and learning more engaging. Interestingly, the day I left for China, international test scores showed that Shanghai students are at the top of the world in reading, science, and math. On The Program for International Student Assessment, a test run by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Shanghai blew away the competition.
There will no doubt be continuing tension between new modes of teaching and attention to testing and success, as measured by performance on traditional assessments. In The Wall Street Journal, Chinese educator Jiang Xueqin, comments: "Chinese schools are very good at preparing their students for standardized tests. For that reason, they fail to prepare them for higher education and the knowledge economy." Jiang goes on to ask: "But what about the entrepreneurs and innovators needed to run a 21st century global economy? China's most promising students still must go abroad to develop their managerial drive and creativity, and there they have to unlearn the test-centric approach to knowledge that was drilled into them."
The most interesting discussion occurred at the YKPao International School in Shanghai. We talked about a technology vision for the future, if given a blank slate, like the one YKPao has in starting its secondary program. YKPao is currently a K-6 school, but is expanding to add a secondary 7-12 school, on a separate New England boarding school modeled campus.
However, much of a new technology vision is constrained by government control of access to the Internet, blogs, and collaborative learning community models. Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and objectionable content, like certain New York times articles, are all blocked. CNN is tightly controlled. When watching CNN at the hotel, the screen would go black for minutes at a time, and then come back on. YKPao and Beijing International School, another school that we visited, both expressed frustration with the censorship, and the limitations it places on their ability to open up access for their students.
The first item that rose to the surface in our discussion with YKPao educators, who were from Australia, New Zealand, and the United States, was the issue of email and whether schools are doing a disservice in continuing to teach students with email. As many of us know, email is the messaging of last resort for students. Real-time communication in the form of chat, text, and video dominate their social interactions online.
A recent NYTimes article supports this trend. Andrew Bosworth, director of engineering at Facebook, comments in the Times article: "The future of messaging is more real time, more conversational and more casual. The medium isn't the message. The message is the message."
James E. Katz, the director for the Center for Mobile Communications Studies at Rutgers University, explains, in the same Times article: "It's painful for them [the younger generation]. It doesn't suit their social intensity."
At Beijing International School, where many students stay for two to three years at a time before their families are relocated, the school creates digital portfolios with students, from application to graduation. Families want access to their child's learning, as they migrate to different parts of the world. Everything lives in the Cloud. Every year is carefully organized, mapped out, and continuous, so that they also know their students really well. They have student led conferences where kids share their digital portfolios.
Beijing International School is hosting a conference on the Flat Classroom Project in late February. They have partnered with Katie Salen's Quest to Learn School in New York City, using Gamestar Mechanic, which "was designed as a learning platform to foster the development of 21st Century skills while teaching the principles of game design." Beijing students create and design their own games, and iterate through the process with students in New York City, testing prototypes and receiving feedback. They are using design thinking, and are intrigued by the opportunities with game design.
The two international schools, YKPao and Beijing International, are global in their outlook and approaches, and open and eager for innovation with technology. They are just further along than the Chinese schools that we visited, but the Chinese educators with whom we met share interest in innovation, collaboration, and technology integration, and appear to want to move at a fast clip, like Shanghai TV University, to catch up and even surpass U.S. educational approaches. Our tour guide in Shanghai captured the pace of innovation there when she said that she buys a new map every six months because the city is changing so fast.
I am fascinated to follow the direction that China heads in with technology integration, social media, especially if Facebook can gain a foothold in China, and education.

Britney married childhood friend Jason Alexander at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas in January 2004...and got it annulled 55 hours later, unlike Ross Gellar.
You definitely remember Brit's "Gimme More" performance at the MTV VMA's in 2007, but did you know that took place in Las Vegas too? Yup.
And Britney's no stranger to Sin City, as she's spent tons of time by the pool at the Palms hotel.

Mid-September 2015 The last four weeks, I got at least 3 questions regarding why junipers or pines are dying.

Symptoms usually begins with several branches exhibiting die-back, gradually gets worse.Some narrative states that the plant appear to die quickly one the dieback started. SO what is going on….

Is this ethical practice of an attorney? No wonder he got divorced.
Also noticed how he posts Fake forged testimonials on his website and many other lawyer web pages that pretend he did such a great job, he even forged my name. And I was NOT happy with his "service" or lack thereof.

To say Gérard Basset, OBE, jet black hair and matching moustache, is a wine connoisseur would be an understatement. The 56-year-old holds an array of titles: Master of Wine, Master Sommelier, as well as qualifying from Bordeaux Ecole de Management, now part of Kedge business school, with a wine MBA.
But it would be fair to say he stumbled into his career rather than planned it. A junior gastronome he was not. Yet as a boy he enjoyed his mother's homely fare, including jams and pastries. It is her blackcurrant liquor – made from fruit in the garden – that sticks in his mind, perhaps the only early indication of his future profession as a sommelier.
Born in Saint-Etienne ("not the most exciting town"), he travelled to England aged 20 to watch his local football team play Liverpool. He liked the country and returned to find a job as a kitchen porter, before graduating to waiting.
Chef school seemed the logical next step. But after qualifying in France and working at a Michelin-starred restaurant, he realised he did not like the work one bit. "There was always shouting," he reflects.
His colleagues never praised him for a job well done, preferring to point out his mistakes, however trivial. So he packed it in and returned to work in England as a waiter in a low-budget hotel that brightened its food by dyeing its rice red, orange and green. Being French, he says, meant that his English peers bowed to his wine knowledge. "People thought I knew a lot [about wine]. I knew nothing."
Not having a university education, Gérard Basset found his wine MBA was a steep learning curve.
The degree was similar to a conventional MBA, but case studies, finance, marketing, logistics and supply chain management were wine-related. Fellow students came from across the world, from banks and oil companies and a few had started wineries. He liked the international aspect, reinforced by spending time at the University of Adelaide, the University of Santiago and University of California, Davis.
The alumni network has been important to him. This month he is meeting a former student to discuss a potential business.
An MBA is not "magic", he says. "It will only be as good as you want to make it. If you put a lot into it . . . it's a good ground to give you ideas you can then research, you can do your own thing . . ."
But his colleagues ultimately did him a favour by setting him on his career path as sommelier then hotelier. In 1994 he founded the Hotel du Vin, which he built into a chain of mid-market hotels that traded on its wine offering, before selling it to MWB. He then embarked on his MBA and set up the Hotel TerraVina with his wife, Nina.
Sitting inside the small, cosy hotel in Hampshire, everything is muted beige and fawn. Outside the New Forest beckons: the trees a beautiful blaze of red, gold and brown.
In 1988 he became a sommelier at a Michelin-starred hotel, Chewton Glen, a luxury spa-hotel in Hampshire, where he met his future wife.
Robin Hutson, the manager, supported his passion for wine and gave him time to study. Mr Basset eventually became head sommelier. His ambition to become a brand ambassador for a big winery was challenged when Mr Hutson suggested they open a hotel together.
Money, or a lack of it, was Mr Basset's first thought. He had taken out a 100 per cent mortgage on a flat, which in 1989 was worth £52,000. A couple of years later it was worth £34,000. But his business partner convinced him they could find investors.
The idea was to offer good food, good wine and simple service at a reasonable price. "At the time not many people were doing it." In 1994, they opened Hotel du Vin in the centre of Winchester.
Important to the funding was securing sponsorship from wine brands for individual rooms. Learning about business was very much on-the-job. "It was the first time I heard words like 'P & L', 'balance sheet'; all these things."
As the business grew, opening a second, third and fourth hotel, they forged a more formal structure and recruited further investors, including Anita and Gordon Roddick, founders of the Body Shop, the natural cosmetics group.
"We were lucky, things were going well. When things are going well you're a bit more relaxed, you're not so attentive to all the little things because at the end of the day money is coming in, you're making a profit. It was a very nice time and it was all a bit easy."
The wine, he says, was the hotel's unique selling point. But there was no snobbery, he insists. "If you wanted to have Coca-Cola, frankly we didn't care. We didn't want to scare people."
As they were building hotel number seven, they were approached by MWB which owned the Malmaison hotel group. So in 2004 the pair sold up for £66m, earning Mr Basset £2.5m after tax.
He decided to study for an executive MBA in wine and spirits at Bordeaux, which he began in 2006. Why? "Maybe because I left school with very little study?"
After completing his MBA, he realised he missed working. "What happens when you've been very busy and you stop suddenly, emails come less and less, the phone never rings. It's great the first month or two but then you start to feel a bit restless."
He bought the hotel, now Hotel TerraVina, with his wife at the start of 2007 and opened in August. "Things were going well."
Then Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy in September 2008. If he had known the financial crisis was imminent he would probably have delayed his hotel's opening.
Those customers he did attract were ruthless hagglers. "Before the recession people didn't discuss price much. The mentality was 'if you don't want [a room] other people will have it'." But suddenly he had to negotiate prices.
The growth of internet booking companies has made the environment more difficult, he says. "That's something that has done a lot of damage. A lot of people won't book direct . . . If [the intermediary bookings agencies] sell they take a big commission. The internet has created middle men."
He has no plans to buy any more hotels this time round, preferring to focus on TerraVina and give talks on wine, increasingly in China. "[China] is extremely interesting for wine. A small percentage of people with a lot of money are interested in art, luxury and wines."
He likes the freedom of owning his own hotel and can come and go as he chooses. But on the down side, "your mind is always on it. You never leave a business because you're always responsible. You go on holiday and you don't know what could happen, you're still on call."
Despite the difficulties, he says, the hotel has always made a small profit, even if that meant he did not draw a salary. "We are certainly not making a fortune, that's for sure."
During his time in the UK he has seen the restaurant and hotel industry transformed. In the 80s, most were "not very good, very average". Now, "everything has improved, [the scene is] very vibrant . . . it's completely different."
He insists he has no regrets. "You have to learn. Not everything is positive but if I was to do a column with minus and plus there would be a lot in the pluses."

Fitbit Zip review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Wearables, Features, Product Reviews
Wearing a device to track your steps is nothing new, but the Fitbit Zip looks to be the budget solution that brings users into the connected fitness data world. The verdict is still out as far as if wearing fitness gadgets will make you more fit, but it's hard to argue that it doesn't at least make you more aware. The Zip is the least expensive way to start tracking and syncing your steps, calories burned, distance, and other stats, linking easily to your smartphone to give you a pretty look at all the data. The question is, does the Fitbit Zip do enough to take attention away from the more feature-rich Fitbit One, Nike FuelBand, and other competing devices? Join us for our full Fitbit Zip review as we find the answer.

Logitech Harmony Touch review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Features, Home Entertainment, Peripherals, Product Reviews, Videos
For a number of years, the Logitech Harmony One has been recognized as the best universal remote control, and now the company is back with the Harmony Touch. What's changed? Well, the Harmony Touch controls are focused mainly on its capacitive touchscreen, which is front and center. A lot of the typical controls that you'd typically have hardware keys for are moved to the touchscreen, which supports taps and swipe gestures. The goal here is to make is super easy for those of you who have a bunch of devices connected to your television or receiver, allowing you to swap between each with ease. The question is, does it do it's job as expected, and is it better than the Harmony One? Follow along in our full Logitech Harmony Touch review as we explore these answers.

Governor Granholm has signed legislation to rename a west Michigan trail after philanthropist and retailer Fred Meijer.
The Meijer family offered to donate one million dollars to White Pine Trail State Park, a 92-mile hiking and biking trail that runs from Cadillac to the northern Grand Rapids suburb of Comstock Park.
The legislation renames the park in Meijer's honor.
The legislation was introduced after a state board initially turned down the Meijer donation, saying it went against state policy.
Granholm later instructed the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Board to accept the gift and add Meijer's name to the park.

Recently I've moved from WP.com and experience some challenges.
With each there's a different number of attached widgets - I think it's more consistent than in WP.com On the other hand, I don't know how to establish my blog's feed to my FB, Twitter and the like, which was easy from within the dashboard options in WP.com. The same with polls, rating, share buttons. What I guess is that I must replace these with appropriate plugins or codes pasted into text widgets (question remains which sidebar to put them on?) For example, AddThis buttons code - should it be pasted on a right sidebar to work everywhere (in posts too)?
I've herad of WP/FB integration - is it worth a while as compared with 'older methods'?

First of all, thanks for the used of this great plugin. The only problem I seem to be having with it is, it's not removing pages that i've deleted and it has caused Google to index them. I removed the pages from Google's index, but they're still listed in my sitemap, so i'm afraid they're just going to keep being indexed.
Any help or suggestions you may have would be greatly appreciated.

Washington Post Blogger: "Will Misleads Readers on Climate Science - Again" [1]
Kevin Grandia [2] | April 7, 2009
By Kevin Grandia [2] • Tuesday, April 7, 2009 - 12:20
On the lastest Climate Misinformation screed by columnist George Will, Washington Post blogger Andrew Freedman writes today on The Capital Weather Gang site [3]that:
"Will's climate change columns are a case study in how one can cherry pick scientific data to fit their own agenda. Take his most recent climate change column [4], for example, which ran in the Post last week. It contained the statement:
'Reducing carbon emissions supposedly will reverse warming, which is allegedly occurring even though, according to statistics published by the World Meteorological Organization, there has not been a warmer year on record than 1998.'
Will appears to have borrowed this nugget from climate change skeptic web sites [5], which have elevated the argument that global warming has stopped or reversed to the status of an Internet 'meme.' However, it has been debunked time [6] and again [7]"
About time someone at the WaPo laid the smackdown on this unresearched garbage coming from George Will.
