From an MSDN chat Posted April 18, 2003, "This error generally indicates that the specified CAB is not embedded in the MSI or is not available. The first step would be to verify that the CAB exists at the specified location and that the patch was created successfully. You can also get similar errors if the sequence numbers of any added or patched files conflict with an existing media table entry, causing MSI to look in the wrong cabinet for the file."

I love you, Yahweh, my strength.
Yahweh is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
I will call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies.
The cords of death surrounded me. The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
The cords of Sheol were round about me; The snares of death came on me.
In my distress I called on Yahweh, And cried to my God. He heard my voice out of his temple, My cry before him came into his ears.
Then the earth shook and trembled. The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken, Because he was angry.
There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, Fire out of his mouth devoured; Coals were kindled by it.
He bowed the heavens also, and came down. Thick darkness was under his feet.
He rode on a cherub, and flew. Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind.
He made darkness his hiding-place, his pavilion around him, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.
At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed, Hailstones and coals of fire.
Yahweh also thundered in the sky, The Most High uttered his voice, Hailstones and coals of fire.
He sent out his arrows, and scattered them; Yes, lightnings manifold, and routed them.
Then the channels of waters appeared, The foundations of the world were laid bare, At your rebuke, Yahweh, At the blast of the breath of your nostrils.
He sent from on high. He took me. He drew me out of many waters.
He delivered me from my strong enemy, From those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me.
They came on me in the day of my calamity, But Yahweh was my support.
He brought me forth also into a large place. He delivered me, because he delighted in me.
Yahweh has rewarded me according to my righteousness. According to the cleanness of my hands has he recompensed me.
For I have kept the ways of Yahweh, And have not wickedly departed from my God.
For all his ordinances were before me. I didn't put away his statutes from me.
I was also blameless with him. I kept myself from my iniquity.
Therefore has Yahweh recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in his eyesight.
With the merciful you will show yourself merciful. With the perfect man, you will show yourself perfect.
With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.
For you will save the afflicted people, But the haughty eyes you will bring down.
For you will light my lamp. Yahweh, my God, will light up my darkness.
For by you, I advance through a troop. By my God, I leap over a wall.
As for God, his way is perfect. The word of Yahweh is tried. He is a shield to all those who take refuge in him.
For who is God, except Yahweh? Who is a rock, besides our God,
The God who arms me with strength, and makes my way perfect?
He makes my feet like hinds' feet, And sets me on my high places.
He teaches my hands to war; So that my arms bend a bow of bronze.
You have also given me the shield of your salvation. Your right hand sustains me. Your gentleness has made me great.
You have enlarged my steps under me, My feet have not slipped.
I will pursue my enemies, and overtake them. Neither will I turn again until they are consumed.
I will strike them through, so that they will not be able to rise. They shall fall under my feet.
For you have girded me with strength to the battle. You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.
You have also made my enemies turn their backs to me, That I might cut off those who hate me.
They cried, but there was none to save; Even to Yahweh, but he didn't answer them.
Then I beat them small as the dust before the wind. I cast them out as the mire of the streets.
You have delivered me from the strivings of the people. You have made me the head of the nations. A people whom I have not known shall serve me.
As soon as they hear of me they shall obey me. The foreigners shall submit themselves to me.
The foreigners shall fade away, And shall come trembling out of their close places.
Yahweh lives; and blessed be my rock. Exalted be the God of my salvation,
Even the God who executes vengeance for me, And subdues peoples under me.
He rescues me from my enemies. Yes, you lift me up above those who rise up against me. You deliver me from the violent man.
Therefore I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations, And will sing praises to your name.
He gives great deliverance to his king, And shows lovingkindness to his anointed, To David and to his seed, forevermore. Psalm 19 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

Written on September 26, 2016
Earlier this year, I set myself a goal to write weekly. Embarrassingly, after 38 weeks, I have written 7 posts.
When I was writing this post, I read some of my previous posts. It was a nice walk down memory lane. I was reminded of my 30-in30 day writing challenge, my first week in London for my internship with Kayako and the internship itself. I wrote about my experiences and the lessons I've learnt. I could feel I've grown quite a bit since then. Reading all those posts made me wish I had written more since then. But, any reasons I come up with about why I didn't would likely be an excuse so I'll skip that. For now, I'm just excited to write again.
I want to write to become better at writing and expressing myself, to document what I have learnt and to share the lessons with others. I want to write because the act of writing makes me sit down and think, because it helps me reflect and think better and because it helps me grow. I want to write so I can look back next time and see how much I've grown. Above all, I want to write so I can remember how I was thinking about things at various points in my life and career. I want to write so I won't forget.
(And I wrote this to remind myself why I want to pick up writing again.)

Mike Nelson's Colorado -- Springs You Drink
Several towns and cities around Colorado are known for their hot springs, but there is one Colorado town where the springs are not hot.
The springs in Manitou Springs are cold and people come to drink them.
Manitou Springs has 11 active springs visitors can sample. The Chamber of Commerce has a map to help direct visitors to each one.
There may be another 17 springs on private property and buried underground, according to Floyd O'Neil with the Manitou Springs Chamber of Commerce.
The Navajo Geyser Spring was found under a shop during remodeling. The owner now has sample cups inside his store to let visitors sample the spring water. The cups are next to the fudge.
Each spring tastes different.
"All are uniquely different. It's an acquired taste, but we all have our favorites," said O'Neil.
Tom Schroeder of Alaska came to Manitou Springs on vacation.
"Some of them taste an awful lot alike to me, we've only hit three so far," Schroeder said.
Other visitors said the springs taste like natural sparkling water. 7 Minute Spring
The water from 7 Minute Spring is used to make lemonade each year for runners registering for the Pikes Peak marathon.
The springs are in a variety places in town. Some are right on the main sidewalk, such as Stratton Spring on the corner of Manitou Avenue and Ruxton. Navajo Spring is next to several kiddie rides. Soda Spring is inside a building, next to a restaurant.
When 7NEWS visited, we found several adults and children at Cheyenne Spring filling up water bottles to take it back to New York.
"It's really cool because it's bubbly water," one visitor said.
Stratton Spring
While Manitou Springs is known for its springs, it's also becoming more pedestrian friendly. In the past few years, the sidewalks have been widened, flowers, benches and trash cans have been added and the overhead utility lines have been buried.
"We've maintained the charm and character of the town," said O'Neil. "We didn't over-modernize, but made a more modern, user- and pedestrian-friendly type of town without sacrificing the original history of the town."
The springs are also being improved. The area around each has been redesigned by an artist.
To visit the springs, print out a map . To learn more about the town, go to ManitouSprings.org.

The Arya Samaj is a global community comprised of individuals united in their unwavering devotion to Universal Truth. Since it's inception over a century ago, the Arya Samaj has tenaciously upheld the fundamental principles of Dharma or True Religion, and has tirelessly endeavored to bring the Light of Truth to all people. It teaches love, justice and righteousness towards all, irrespective of race, caste or creed. Though occasionally mistaken as a reformative sect of Hinduism, the Arya Samaj is in reality a spiritual movement which strives towards the revival of the one timeless way of life natural to all mankind, known as Vaidika Dharma, and as such is an independent and universal community of faith which actively strives to uphold and promote the good of all. This is embodied in the Society's motto, "Krinvanto Vishawam Aryam" - "Make This World Noble".
As a society which first and foremost strives to spread truth and dispel untruth, the Arya Samaj rejects all forms of ritualistic superstition such as idolatry, ancestor worship, pilgrimage and animal sacrifice, as well as all forms of social oppression such as the caste system, untouchability and child labor. It proclaims equal entitlement under the law between men and women, strives to reduce poverty and to protect the weak and the disadvantaged, denounces the consumption of meat as well as the use of intoxicants and recreational drugs, and promotes healthy community, family and private life in tune with the cycles of nature.
When Freedom Fight was on peak throughout the nation, in Abu Road. Arya samaj, Aburoad was established by a group of some railway workers and local residents having full devotion in patriotism and Vedic Ideology. Arya Samaj, Abu Road was established having objectives of contributing in freedom fight and doing efforts in support of girls education and doing efforts against dogmatic and oppressive social practices. Kameshwari in front of Chief Post Office, Abu Road was the place, where Arya Samaj Abu Road was established in 1920 on Arya Samaj Day.Day by day the roots of Arya Samaj was going deep in the mind of public of Abu Road. Support of local people was increasing. On 1 August, 1941, Shrawani Parv, the first Girls School of Sirohi District was started by Shri Hajarimal ji Mishra, Shri Guman Singh ji Panchadiya, Shri Natwar Lal ji, Shri Chauthmal ji Arya, Shri Jai Narayan ji Gopaliya, Shri Mukandi Lal ji Jain, Shri Kanti Lal ji Shah and Shri Jethmal ji Arya of Arya Samaj Abu Road.Educational institutes, established by Arya Samaj Abu Road was going on progress way and today they are among the top educational institutes of the area.
Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati, the founder of the Arya Samaj, openly rejected all forms of sectarian dogma, which he rightly saw as being the source of great conflict and strife in the world. He encouraged man to use his God-given faculties of perception, understanding and reason in the task of distinguishing truth from falsity, and advocated the study of Yoga - a spiritual discipline of which he himself was a renowned master - by all men so that they may come to a direct and sure knowledge of the Divine.

Brenden Nel - SuperSport
Johannesburg - There was more a sense of relief than a sense of celebration in the air at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday night as the Vodacom Bulls stopped a four match losing streak to give themselves some hope of reaching the playoffs.
According to the supersport.com website, while their season has been one of disappointment, certain things remain true. No matter who they play, the Bulls will always be a factor at Loftus Versfeld and none more so than clawing their way back into the game from 18-9 down to win 26-21 in their Vodacom Super Rugby match against the Toyota Cheetahs on Saturday night.
And considering they were desperate to win, it isn't surprising that the smiles were a little overzealous at times, but only for a second.
The Bulls have been in this competition long enough to know their fate can be sealed quickly if they don't follow up this win with a second good victory over the DHL Stormers at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.
With two of their last five games against the Stormers, it is their traditional enemies that will hold sway over their slim playoff hopes once again and considering there is a resurgence in the Stormers game after their nail-biting victory against the Highlanders this past weekend, it makes it all the more difficult.
Not saying the games between the two rivals aren't traditionally difficult, but they are harder to predict when both are struggling to perfect a game plan that has brought them success in the competition in recent times.
The Bulls will welcome Piet van Zyl back into their ranks this week, but are likely to miss Flip van der Merwe for another week as his suspension for a punch continues.
But while they were happy to take the victory over the Cheetahs, the jury still is out on their contribution to the breakdown, with the fact they managed to dominate up front against the Cheetahs perhaps masking their continued frailties there.
It is no secret that the Bulls will have to win every game in the next five weeks if they want to get into the playoff rounds, but with Loftus obviously giving them a boost, it will be interesting to see if they can rectify their wrongs with a series of bold decisions or will continue to plod along with the same game plan in the hope that the problems iron themselves out.
The likelihood is the latter, as Bulls coach Frans Ludeke is not known as one of the pioneering figures in Super Rugby, and more often than not in Pretoria there is an atmosphere of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
The problem is, of course, that everyone else sees the same problem except for the Bulls management this season.
Victor Matfield will once again lead the side into battle this weekend, and was one of the more relieved players on the side of the pitch this weekend.
"I think it takes a lot of pressure off the shoulders of everyone," Matfield said.
"You have that feeling in your stomach that you just want to get back to winning ways. We will take this and hopefully get some momentum and confidence and go into next week. We know it will be another huge game on Saturday. We will have to put in all the hard work again this week and we will have to be even better than tonight if we want to."
Matfield said he was at a loss to why the Bulls managed to find their way on their home ground but couldn't execute on tour in all four games.
"If I knew the difference between playing overseas and here, we would win every year. Things just work easier here and overseas you have to work hard, the opportunities are few, and in this game we had more opportunities and we didn't score. There is still frustration with that and we still want to convert those and score more."
The Bulls will have to up their attack in the coming weeks if they want to score bonus point tries and a positive attitude, combined with the spectre of their fortress will obviously help.
But the question still remains whether they have enough firepower, should they sneak into the playoffs, to win a big game away from home.
Relying on Loftus to help you is one thing, as it papers over the cracks for another week. But it is a dangerous strategy that can backfire at any time, and has no guarantee of long-term success.
The Bulls will want to prove everyone wrong, as they've continued to try to do for weeks now.
Only time will tell if they can do so.

'I prefer to push the boundaries and experiment'
The Guide chatted up with author Ahmed Faiyaz on his newly-released book, The Graveyard Shift, which is going to be adapted in a motion picture soon
Author Ahmed Faiyaz has switched careers from chartered accountancy and management consultant to author. His recent book, The Graveyard Shift is soon to be made into a movie. Excerpts from an interview with the author:
The journey
Although I am from a business background, a part of me always wanted to write. I have been an avid reader from a very young age. I decided to finally sit down and give writing a shot. It was difficult to start as I had no formal training or background in journalism or communication.
But I guess reading as much as I did while growing up contributed greatly in helping ideate a plot and build interesting narratives. After the success of Love, Life & all that Jazz..., my second book Another Chance happened. This was followed by the breezy and light-hearted Scammed and now the latest book is Graveyard Shift. I have also written a number of short stories for the Urban Shots series and Down the Road.
Favourite authors and inspirations
I have a number of favourite authors, each of whom is a source of inspiration. I love the works of F Scott Fitzgerald, Truman Capote, Charles Dickens, Haruki Murakami, Hemingway, Paul Auster, Hanif Kureishi, Stephen King, John Grisham, Rohinton Mistry, Ruskin Bond and Amitav Ghosh.
I have been reading more of the recent and past works of Kazuo Ishiguro, Jo Nesbo, China Mievelle, Keigo Higashino, Junot Diaz and Michael Cunningham. It's always good to expand one's horizon and read more by different authors each of whom have a different style and focus on varied genres. Lately I have found some very good writing emerging from India from the likes of Anees Saleem, Manreet Sodhi, Chandrahas Choudhary, Jeet Thayil and Siddhartha Mukherjee.
About The Graveyard Shift
I initially wrote a 5,000 word short story called Pepper & Lime set in Mumbai about an estranged couple, the guy — a small time chef turned celebrity restaurateur, and the woman, a has-been Bollywood actress. The story was about how their lives change during the course of one night when different events take place in their life.
Movie adapatation
Apart from writing, filmmaking has also been my area of interest. I went to the Prague Film School for a course after a few interesting screenwriting workshops. Post this, we made a few short films with an interesting cast and crew. We were looking for a subject for an independent feature, and I got the creative director of the film, Gaurav Mathur and a few others to read the novella I had written. After they read the book they got excited about it, I went on to write the script and took it to an interesting bunch of actors we were acquainted with. Once they got on board, we got rolling.
The road ahead
I try to experiment with my writing. I notice that a lot of my contemporaries are sticking to genres that they have found initial success in. They tend to write different stories in the same setting, while I prefer to push the boundaries and be as experimental as my limited abilities allow me to. The title, The Graveyard Shift, comes from the title of a show which is hosted on radio by one of the main protagonists.
The novella does have a number of lighthearted moments; it is a mix of drama, intrigue, suspense, romance and dark humour rolled into one. Post The Graveyard Shift, I will be releasing Bestseller, which is a satire on the publishing industry. It's lighthearted in its treatment and it should be an entertaining novel. Following this, the sequel to Scammed and a murder mystery I have been meaning to write for a while will follow.

Hate is never the answer.
We are all different. You and I are not the same. Even though we might have some similarities, we are still different. We are individuals. That means that each and every one of us is unique.
Yet, at the same time, we are all one. Every single one of us, at our core, is just a being of light and energy.
We live in a fear-based society. Recognizing this, we have to work extra hard to not be overwhelmed by fear. Yoda put it rather well when he said, "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering."
The neo-Nazis, the so-called "alt-right", the white supremacists, the KKK and all those groups are equal parts fear and hate. They fear losing their identities, losing the power they believe they have, and they are afraid of change. This leads to anger, which gets redirected as hatred for minorities, Jews and Muslims, women…take your pick.
I am in no way defending the actions of these people, but I do think we need to consider perspective. To understand what others believe helps us find tools to combat their hate and fear. We can be more capable when we stand up to them, and show them that their fear and hate do not empower them as they would believe.
Our society is suffering from deep fractures many do not recognize. In the US, our government is a complete mess; many cannot tell the difference between propaganda and legitimate news and information; and the divide between the haves and the have-nots has grown almost exponentially. Extremists have come to power, and they see only in black-and-white, ignoring the majority at the center and working to force viewpoints to their way of thinking.
Pathwalking can combat hate.
Pathwalking is about choosing our own destiny, our own fate in this life. Rather than let life live me, I am striving to take control over that which I can. My thoughts are my own, my goals belong to only me, and I want to live an extraordinary life of peace and joy. I want to empower myself.
Yet despite the individuality of my purpose, I also want to empower others. I share this philosophy because I believe that we can all benefit from greater self-awareness. By becoming empowered, we can build amazing things.
Fear, anger and hate are not empowering. One of the greatest mistakes these groups make is that they believe they empower themselves with their venom. The exact opposite is true, however. In disempowering the groups they are afraid of and hateful towards, they actually are disempowering themselves. That is why they are standing on the other side of history, and despite a resurgence of soft political support, they are truly a minority.
The challenge is not fighting hate with hate. It's really really easy to dislike these people and their views and their actions. They are hurtful, they are hateful, and not to put too fine a point on it, they come across as evil. We can overcome their message, we are the actual majority here, but they are loud, they are backed by money, and they spew messages that bring us all low.
The right kind of resistance is not futile.
I am not advocating for going totally flower-child hippy on this. We need to demonstrate, we need to march, we need to stand together to resist this evil. Different is not bad. When you get right down to it, everything at its core is energy.
It does not matter if you are black, white, male, female, transgendered, gay, straight, bi, Jew, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Atheiest, American, Russian, Korean, or whatever other labels you care to apply…at our core WE ARE ALL ONE. We think differently, we have different goals, we have different wants and needs. Yet even with all our differences, we are all one, all of us are light and energy at our core.
Reconciling our free-will and individuality of thought with our sameness of being is why we need to empower ourselves, and one another. When we are aware of ourselves, we can do more for the world at large. Mob mentality, and organized groups of haters lack awareness, or I don't think they'd be so quick to spew their rancor.
Observe the reaction when individuals from the Charlottesville marchers were called-out. When identified as part of the mob, they felt themselves empowered. But as soon as they were named and individualized and shamed, many changed their tune, and attempted to lessen their role in hate-mongering. Suddenly they were disempowered…though in truth they were always disempowered.
Hate can be overcome.
We need to take our own empowerment, and use it to overcome the disempowered masses. One of the best ways to do this is to work on empowering them. When we can show them that their lives are not being overtaken by that which they fear and hate, we can begin to help them see how disempowered they truly are by their so-called leaders, teachers, demagogues and the like.
Resist meeting hate with hate. Love is not necessarily the opposite of hate. Kindness, respect, sympathy, and aid are among the antonyms of hate, and can be used to combat it. The more we are aware, the more we can help bring awareness to others. With greater awareness, we can build a better world, and overcome the fear.
Hate is never the answer. What do you do to resist the fear and hatred in our society?
This is the two-hundred ninety-fourth entry in my series. These weekly posts are ideas for and my personal experiences with walking along the path of life. I share this journey as part of my desire to make a difference in this world along the way.
Thank you for joining me. Feel free to re-blog and share.

A more appropriate analogy would be to compare "Caucasoids" to "Negroids". "Yhudah" and "Yhudiy" were two different people, born at two entirely different times, in entirely separate countries, with entirely separate ancestors, of entirely different races, just as "Caucasoids" and "Negroids" are.

Gen 29:29 And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his handmaid to be her maid. Gen 29:30 And he went in also unto Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years. Gen 29:31 And when the LORD saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb: but Rachel was barren. Gen 29:32 And Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben: for she said, Surely the LORD hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.

Yes, I know. Following up on my own message. Almost as bad as talking to oneself in public... There is an easier way to handle this. The following patch deals with this in a slightly better fashion.The patch you submitted doesn't work, because it uses a static variable,flip_overflow. If you have multiple serial ports active, they will alltry to reference same flip_overflow variable while the interrupt routineis executing, with really bad results.(Insert standard claim about why I think threads are a bad idea for mostapplication programs; there are plenty of kernel programmers have a hardtime writing thread-safe kernel code --- and we expect *application*programmers to be able to get this stuff right? It's like handing aloaded .45 to a chimpanzee and hoping he won't shoot himself or otherswhile he's playing with it. :-)(Yes, I know sometimes you need threads for performance reasons; but youbetter have someone who really knows what they are doing, and the timeswhen you need threads are much rarer than you think.)BTW, the basic idea in your patch was a good one; you just have to putthe flip_overflow flag in the info structure. - Ted

Sparta, Ky. Kyle Busch came up five spots short in his bid to make NASCAR history Saturday night, and Johnny Benson took advantage, holding off Michael Annett to win the Built Ford Tough 225 at Kentucky Speedway.
Busch was attempting to become the first driver to win in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, Nationwide Series and Craftsman Truck Series in successive starts. He won the Nationwide Series' Dollar General 300 on July 11 and the Nextel Cup's Lifelock.com 400 the following night.
The early portion of the race featured a number of yellow flags, and nine of the first 24 laps were run under caution. There were eight cautions overall, slowing drivers for a total of 36 laps. There was also a 10-minute, 34-second stoppage for track repairs following a red flag.
"The crew had a lot of really good stops," Benson said. "We had to use a little strategy because we had a loose right front tire, so I was glad that the (early) caution came out when it did. But these guys continue to do a great job."
Benson grabbed the lead in the truck series points race by one over third-place finisher Matt Crafton. Previous points leader Ron Hornaday finished 10th, dropping him to third in the standings.

Make a Contribution
How You Can Help
The wireless network project started as an experiment in 2002,
essentially using basic home networking equipment to see if Internet
connection can be brought to Nangi from Pokhara (the nearest city
with an Internet Service Provider). After repeated trial and error,
the trick worked, and today in 2008, there are 22 villages villages
in three districts of Nepal that are connected via the wireless
It takes 8 days to walk through these villages, and now information
and news gets shared in seconds. A total population of 22,000,
and 7 High Schools with about 1,700 students now have access to
news, goods for sale in the surrounding villages, telephone calls
using VoIP, basic health care using telemedicine, and better access
to education via tele-teaching.
However, there are hundres of other villages out there that need
to be connected. And as need for services grow within the connected
villages, it requires better infrastructure, scalable equipment,
and more support and maintenance. We believe this will be the
foundation for an information highway that will connect all of
rural Nepal, and with your help, we can realize this goal sooner
than ever.
The One-Dollar-a-Month campaign asks you to donate one dollar
each month to build this Information Highway. Show the unity of
Nepalis and well-wishers of Nepal by donating $1/month to help
build Information Highway using wireless technology in the mountains
of Nepal.

Skip to comments.Sandy Victim: Obama is a PHONY and a LIAR! Its been 2 months and no red tape has been cut
Posted on 01/05/2013 5:43:55 AM PST by Jimmy Valentine's brother
Sandy victim Scott McGrath who spoke directly to Obama right after the hurricane hammered Obama today saying that hes a phony and a straight out liar. He said its been 2 months now and that no red tape has been cut.
He also says that even though they need the aid money from Congress, they shouldnt lard it up with pork because tax payers will have to pay for it down the road. Love hearing that, especially from a Sandy victim. Also, he said Chuck Schumer is full of it after lambasting Republicans for not passing it with all the pork in it. This guy needs his own show!
I am confused about the roll of private insurance and acts of God versus Federal Disaster Relief. But these days I'm eadily confused.
The US Congress has PROVEN that its only interests
are itself, its greed, itself, and its own interests.
The US Constitution and the American people are only the
US Congress' pets to be used, flushed, and discarded.
Is ONE member of the US Congress under their own Laws
including ObamaCARE? No, they are not.
I'm from the Government and I'm here to help you.
Did this guy vote for obama on November 6th? If yes, then I have ZERO sympathy for him.
But these days I'm easily confused.
Search Stafford Act,it may help.
Pork is pork and its evil for the usual players,MSNBC,CNN (and the list goes on) to report the Repubs dont want to give aid.
They just dont want to give more free crap to those that don't deserve or need!
Obama is a PHONY and a LIAR!
Did this person just wake up. Obama popped out of the womb a phony and liar!
not bad for Kenyan impostor who started to lie about his birthplace and is getting away with EVERYTHING!! Only handful of people are bringing this up, but are ridiculed and silenced.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
"Sandy victim Scott McGrath who spoke directly to Obama right after the hurricane hammered Obama today saying that hes a phony and a straight out liar. He said its been 2 months now and that no red tape has been cut."
Then do not vote for him again in 2016. You are in a blue state and the democrats overwhelmingly voted for him. My cousin is a big Obama guy, last his house and cars. He blamed the Republicans.
I have no pity.
As far as funds, when a state is overwhelmed, they ask for Federal help. Enter Obama in this case....
The idea that there is ANY pork in that funding is called "stealing"....from you and me. And FEMA HAS money to spend.....this can only be to refresh their kitty....
O hates that he was born illegitimately to a crazy teen whore. He hates the world that he was born into and is here to bring justice to it from Allah.
I was wondering that myself. He probably did.
No sympathy.
Well the election is over. The Sandy victims are not needed now....
Then do not vote for him again in 2016. ...By God! I'll bet noone votes for him legally, again!! That'll teach him.
Based on the last four years, are you really sure he won't be running for President in 2016? (declaring himself president for life does not count).
Notice I said "legally", which this government is wont to do.
You are wrong. Flood Insurance is a Government program. It is not part of the Homeowner insurance policy. (exception is for some mobile home policies ). FEMA sets the rates and the terms for Flood Insurance. Your rates are set based on what flood plain you live in. Some areas are required that you purchase Flood Insurance if you have a Federal backed loan. Others its elective. I suspect that New York and New Jersey with their political clout didn't require Flood coverage so that the Govt would bail them out. Earthquake is another coverage not included in your Homeowners policy, at least in California. You have to purchase it from the State. Some states won't cover you for wind damage either, you have to purchase extra from the state ( Florida and Hawaii for example )
Obama a liar? Where has this guy been. First off, look at the people in NJ who were the most affected by Sandy. Do they look like the Katrina "victims" to you? So, what did he lie about. He is all about helping "his people" and punishing whitey....period, end of story.
When he gets back from his safari back to his alleged home state, he will continue with his mission to destroy white america.

Published 11:39 am, Saturday, June 8, 2013
The Plainview High School volleyball schedule is out and the Lady Bulldogs will play a demanding pre-district schedule, including a tuneup against District 3-4A powerhouse Dumas, which defeated Plainview in three games in the bi-district round of the playoffs last year.
The season begins quickly as the Lady Bulldogs start practice on Monday, Aug. 5, and have a scrimmage at home just four days later. They also will scrimmage District 4-4A foe Frenship on Aug. 10. Plainview begins their regular season Aug. 13 when they host Tulia.
The preparation for the District 4-4A campaign will include tournaments at Copperas Cove, Granbury and Frenship.
The Dumas match will be part of a three-team competition on Saturday, Sept. 14, at Plainview High School. The Lady Bulldogs tackle Dumas at 2 p.m. after playing Caprock at 11 a.m. Dumas won't be the only perennial District 3-4A contender coming to Plainview.

The propensity to ignore the specific elements of these stories is unfortunate since substance abuse and dependency is relatively extensive in our society.

Greenville Utah 84731 Substance Abuse Counseling: How Is Drug Addiction Treated?
Prior to starting this process, you should be prepared to set healthy boundaries and remain strong. Assisting a liked one with addiction is very various from helping a liked one with other illness. Anything that you do in order to ease his discomfort will just extend the disease making it stronger. As long as you are going to be there to hold his hand, bail him out, repair his mistakes, and make life much easier, he will never ever see the requirement to combat his disease.
Furthermore, you will get an ignition interlock gadget on your cars and truck for a minimum of twelve months. This is a breathalyzer on your cars and truck that you should blow into in order to drive. If your blood alcohol level is above the programmed limits, your automobile's ignition locks. As soon as your car does begin, you will need to blow into the breathalyzer regularly. Failure to blow a tidy sample into the machine will initiate alarms forcing the chauffeur to either offer a clean sample or pull over and turn off the car.
In Summary
It is possible to keep your kid from utilizing drugs, but just if you take effective actions to assist them avoid needing to end up in a drug abuse rehab. 4 million Americans seek substance abuse treatment each year. That suggests four million shattered households and lives filled with suffering. Through education, you can prevent your family from going through such an experience. Speak with your child about exactly what drugs do, and what drug dealers say. As the old stating goes, better safe than sorry.

When ABC's premiere of Marvel's "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." began with the trademark sound and sight of flipping comic book pages turning into the Marvel Studios logo, it felt like we were in a movie theater for the latest continuation of their cinematic universe. Thankfully, despite some writing missteps and clear evidence of a lower budget than its big screen counterparts, this first TV endeavor inside that comic book universe holds a lot of promise.
The series uses Joss Whedon smartly since his strengths have already been proven in ensemble shows like "Firefly" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (and even the short-lived "Dollhouse"), and we meet the whole crew of main characters in the pilot, complete with special guest star Cobie Smulders reprising her big screen role as S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill, but that's not the biggest link to the big screen film series.
Clark Gregg makes quite the entrance as Agent Phil Coulson, and then immediately mocks the cliche of entering a room from a dark corner, just for cinematic effect. His introduction comes after Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton) is pulled from duty in France to take on a new mission in East L.A., working with a team that includes Coulson, whose existence following his "death" in The Avengers is supposedly only revealed to those with Level 7 Clearance, and that's something that the big screen superhero ensemble hasn't been given.
But there's something that Hill and Dr. Streiten (Ron Glass from "Firefly") are keeping from Coulson regarding his recovery time that he can never find out. So from the beginning there are some solid threads that should keep fans interested for a whole season. In addition, the pilot also introduces a talented computer hacker named Skye (Chloe Bennet), who has been monitoring S.H.I.E.L.D.'s activities (in a very fangirl way) following the attack in Manhattan from The Avengers. It's her work that helps lead S.H.I.E.L.D. to a potential new "hero" who jumped from a four-story burning building, rescued woman in hand, unscathed.
And while S.H.I.E.L.D. initially hopes that he can use his powers for good, he actually learns that his gifts are artificial, made possible by some unknown organization who has harnessed a new, unstable version of Extremis from Iron Man 3. That's about all you need to know without spoiling the pilot. The good news is that there's plenty of reference and ties to the cinematic Marvel universe from conversations about The Avengers to a recovered Chitauri device, and it really grounds the TV series in the film world.
However, because this is a TV series, there are elements that feel much weaker and inferior by comparison. While there are some truly well-written scenes and sequences, there are too many cheesy, contrived lines, especially from S.H.I.E.L.D.'s case of the week in the form of the aforementioned superpowered man played by J. August Richards. The character is given a weak, rushed pity party of a storyline that feels like it was built for TV while everything else around it feels like it was built for movies. Hopefully this is something that will get better as show gets more serial and less procedural.
Thankfully, the rest of the ensemble, which includes Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen), who has some sort of history with Coulson and had to be brought back into the field, makes for some solid chemistry. Specifically, the nerdier field agents Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) and Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge) are perfectly cast, and interact well with the rest of the team.
As for the humor, some of it feels like it's straight from Whedon's mind (calling Loki the Asgardian Mussolini), but others feel like cheap imitations. At the very least, Gregg as Coulson makes everything work fairly well, even the less than stellar pieces of dialogue splattered throughout, and the show is hardly a failure for those small shortcomings.
In the first episode, "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," does a fine job of engaging viewers and immersing them in the Marvel universe, albeit on a smaller scale. We're not sure just how big this series will get in scale or in hero presence, but right now it feels like a nice blend of Marvel and "Fringe," which should keep all the right viewers interested for at least an entire first season, especially following the stellar ratings from the series premiere. The pilot isn't perfect, but few rarely are, and there's plenty to enjoy, making for a promising new entry in the popular Marvel universe.
What did you think of the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." series premiere?

This post is dedicated to Brooke and Brittany. They're sisters. They're both pretty obnoxious, and prone to cheap sexual innuendo, especially when it comes to jokes about hot beef. (Hey, girls- did you know that "innuendo" is Italian for suppository?) They live in Portland, or Seattle, or some other silly pseudo-city out West, where they smoke weed, play hacky sack, and hang out with other negligent reprobates. For a while it was hard to decide which of them was lazier, but now Brittany has clearly won. She's a big huge quitter of Sarah Palin-esque proportions. Click the link to see the last time she posted something. Seriously, it's just shameful. She hardly even bothers to comment on other people's blogs any more, that's how far she has sunk into her morass of appalling torpor. Honestly, the kids today.
So, because they did/specifically did not ask for it respectively, here's a flat iron steak. Sous vide at 52˚ C for an hour or so, then a sear in smoked duck fat. Sweet potato fries. Green mash made from curly endive, garlic, pine nuts, olive oil, ume plums, white truffle oil, lemon juice, and a little mustard. More mustard on the side. It's what's for dinner, bitches.

Duration: 102 min
Genre: Thriller
Country: Russia
Director: Denis Alexeev
Age restriction: No One 17 and Under Admitted.
The film is a continuation of the ideological life of the heroes of television series "The Brigade." However, the emphasis shifted to the history of Alexander Belov`s son - Ivan. This movie is about modern Russia. The fact that is on everyone's lips: politics, corruption, cynicism of big business, and special services. A new generation that, learned the truth about unclean business of parents, does not follow in their footsteps, and choose a new path. For them, the sense of honor, love and country are very important. The hero, comfortably living abroad before, however, prefers Russia (in contrast to the series) and still lives in it, hoping to bring his ideals into their family and the country as a whole.

"Last of the Red Hot Poppas will make you laugh and it will make you think rather more deeply than will make you comfortable, and in these wildly disjointed times that means this novel is not only a richly enjoyable read but an essential one."

Poppas was printed in Japan, by Yushin printing.
Inspired by the Chris Ware issue of McSweeney's (#13), we worked an A2 sized poster of a commissioned painting by Leslie Staub into the dust-jacket. Through careful folding we managed to accomplish two things:
Between the dust-jacket/poster, case-papers, end-papers, tobira (Japanese style single page "opening" insert) and text papers, Poppas utilizes 5 high-quality paper types.

I started working with a new research group in the Cognitive Computing Lab under Ashwin Ram this semester. The project I am working on is concentrated on using Case Based Reasoning techniques to easily develop AI opponents in video games. We are using Wargus, an open-source mod which allows you to play Warcraft 2 using the open-source Stratagus game engine, as the platform for our CBR research.
My contribution to the project was to develop a map classification system for Warcraft 2 maps which would provide additional features for the CBR engine. The system is a joint project between my Pattern Recognition class professor Jim Rehg and the CCL researchers Santi Ontañón and Manish Mehta. It was also a good starter project for getting more familiar with the architecture of their system since I plan on continuing to work with the group for my senior research project.

At the top of the list of many new features is more enhanced press release distribution to places that count, including Associated Press, more than 150+ television stations that publish news directly to their websites, Acquire Media and numerous industry-specific. This is in addition to 24-7 Press Release Newswire's already successful distribution network.
"We have spent the last two years listening to what our customers want, which is better distribution to media and journalists, more social media interaction and better visibility.

"The Media Desk is one of our biggest additions," said Iwasaki. "This is a feature-loaded central location for journalists, bloggers and readers to easily track, search and follow stories through a multitude of search capabilities."
The new Media Desk will provide an excellent platform for attracting many more journalists, bloggers and viewers directly through the 24-7 Press Release Newswire website.

When he left for a twelve-month deployment, she knew it would feel like forever before they saw each other again. She didn't realize how right she was.
When Lance Corporal Brecken Connolly gets taken as a POW, Camryn hopes for the best but steels herself for the worst. In the end, steel was what she needed to survive when he didn't. She moves on the only way she knows how—gilding herself in more steel.
Years go by.
She builds a new life.
She leaves the old one behind.
Until one day, she sees the face of a ghost on the news. Brecken seems to have risen from the dead, but she knows she can't perform the same miracle for herself. While Brecken was held in a torture camp for the past five years, she's been trapped in her own kind of prison. One she can't be freed from.
The man she mourned comes back to join the living, but the girl he wanted to spend his life with isn't the same woman he comes back for. Brecken isn't the same person either. The past five years have changed them both. While he's determined to put the pieces back together, she's resolved to let hers rot where they shattered.
Broken or not, Brecken wants her back. He'll do anything to achieve that. Even if it means going against the warden of Camryn's personal prison—her husband.
An emotional and powerful second-chance romance, Tortured shines a bright light on the strength of love and its power on a persons inner strength. Torn apart by horrible circumstance, Camryn and Brecken fall prey to distance and the effect of moving on, but Williams never once fails to bring that connection to the front and center. There is so much pain, tension, and love flowing at all times that the reader can't help but be pulled in by it.
Delicately and with grace, Williams manages to delve into the mind of our survivor heroine, a woman who may be battered and bruised on the outside, but harvests the will and strength of any warrior on the inside. Along with our battle worn hero, the two share more than just a once-in-a-lifetime love, but the effects of a strong hand that have only gotten heavier in the last six years they've been apart. With everything they suffered through, I loved that I could still feel the power of their connection and that soul-deep love that transcends any and all hurdles. And that Brecken still felt like the man he was before: sweet, kind, and self-sacrificing. The love he felt for Camryn made my own heart hurt; it was powerful and it leapt from the pages.
The beauty lies within the love these two characters share, and while the story is sad, it's also empowering and sexy and bright. I loved the duality to these characters; how they had weakness, but so, so much strength in spite of it. I loved their journey and the sweetness that is simply them. Tortured has a great, inspiring love story that'll break your heart and then mend it right back together.

"It's been six years. Everything's changed. I have. You have." My eyes lifted. "Why? Why are you trying to win me back?"
He exhaled, his lips parting. "I'm going to win you back."
When his hand slid around the bend of my waist, winding behind my back, I jerked. His touch was different tonight, hungry, determined. My head clouded, blocking out reason or letting it surface to the top, one or the other.
"I married him," I whispered even as my hand found his chest.
"But you belong to me."
My eyes closed as he bowed me against him. I wasn't sure how two bodies that had been as broken as ours could be so strong when joined. "How do you know?"
"I can see it in your eyes. Every time you look at me." His other hand lifted to my chin, tipping it until our eyes connected. His brow rose slowly, like I was proving his point right that very moment.
"That's a confident statement." My voice shook, but my body felt steady. Unwavering.
"It's the truth."
My chest was moving so hard, it brushed his with every breath. What was I doing? Where had I found myself? The man holding me had died only to be resurrected six years later. It was too late, but it wasn't over.
No matter what, Brecken Connolly and I would never be over.
"Twenty-six days," I said slowly. "That's all I have to give you. That's all I have to give. Four weeks. Once he's back, you know the way it has to be."
His face broke, but his hold didn't budge. "It's not enough."
My fingers curled into his shirt, looking for some way to hold on to him. "I know."
His other arm suddenly looped around me and he lifted me off the ground, his grip going around my backside when my legs tied around him. "But a fucking eternity wouldn't be enough either, so it'll just have to do."
He carried me through the sand and up the stairs of the cabin, then he propped me against the wall so he could open the screen door. Something slipped out of my mouth when he flexed his hips into mine.
"Told you it wasn't a morning issue," he whispered in my ear, but I could hear the smile in his voice. "Just a Camryn one."
He made the same motion with his hips, applying a little more friction this time, causing a louder sound to echo from my lungs.
Opening the screen door as silently as he could, he carried me inside.
"You can set me down, you know?" I whispered.
"I know," he said, his arms tying tighter. Once all of the lights were off, the cabin closed up for the night, he padded down the hall.
"You know where you're going?"
His head nodded beside mine. "I've always known."
My hands went behind his neck. His skin was warm and familiar. "And where's that?"
He exhaled against my skin as he closed the bedroom door. "Toward you."
He set me down once he'd untied my legs from around his waist, and he took a few steps back. He stared at me for a moment then reached for the lamp on the dresser.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Turning on the lights."
I watched him flip on another. "Why?"
"Because I want to see you. Because I want to watch your face as I move inside you. Because I want to see your skin flush when I make you come." He flipped on one more light, then all of his attention turned to me. "Because I want to see everything."
My heart took off as I imagined being intimate with him with every light in the room on. My body wasn't the same one he'd left. It had carried a burden; it bore the scars of a shattered soul and a broken body. "I don't want you to see me. Not like that. In the dark, you can imagine the way I was before."
When I reached for the closest lamp to switch it off, he stopped me. "I don't want to imagine." His hand curled around mine, guiding it away from the lamp. "I want the real thing. I want the real you."
"You've seen my body. You know what I look like beneath all of this." I motioned at the fresh clothes hanging off of me, covering me from my wrists to my ankles to my neck.
"When I look at you, I see beauty and strength, and the one person in the world who gives me a reason to live and a reason to die." He drew me to him, his face creased in lines of concentration. "That's what I see when I look at you."

This is New
York's landmark historic Jewish neighborhood, which was once the world's
largest Jewish community. It was here that the New York garment industry
began. Today it is one of New York's favorite bargain beats, where
serious shoppers find fantastic bargains (especially along Orchard
Street on a Sunday afternoon), cutting-edge new designers, and hot bars
and music venues - and possibly the best place to get a great pastrami
sandwich, pickles out of a barrel, and the world's best bialys. Try
Katz's Delicatessen (205 East Houston St.), the oldest and largest
real NY deli, founded in 1888.

Jewish-American History - Uprising on the Lower East Side, 1909On November 22, 1909, thousands of workers, mostly young, Jewish, and female,gathered at Cooper Hall in New York City for a meeting that would initiate a new chapter in American labor history and in the role of Jewish immigrants in American society. The meeting had been called by Local 25 of the struggling International Ladies' Garment Workers Union, looking to reinvigorate their degenerating strikes at the Triangle Shirtwaist Company and the Leiserson Company by calling a general strike of the entire New York shirtwaist (ladies' blouse) industry, then becoming one of the largest segment of the largely Jewish New York garment industry. The general strike called that night would become known as "The Uprising of 20,000" and would drastically change the role of women and Jews in American labor politics over the next several decades.
The American garment industry itself had developed simultaneously with the waves of East European Jewish immigration between 1880 and 1920, offering numerous opportunities for work and advancement to the newly arrived immigrants. Advances in technology, industrial organization, and transportation made the mass-production of affordable clothing possible, which was in turn met with an increased demand for new fashions and styles, especially in women's clothing. To meet this demand and increase their profitability, manufacturers developed a system of subcontractors, sweatshops, and home work, relying on the availability of cheap immigrant and female labor to fill their orders. The International Ladies' Garment Workers Union (ILGWU) was formed in 1900, under the auspices of the American Federation of Labor (AFL) and the United Hebrew Trades (UHT), to represent and protect the workers in the ladies' garment trades, including makers of dresses, hats, blouses, and jackets. For the first several years of its existence, the ILGWU barely survived, and even considered disbanding in 1908. Local 25, which represented shirtwaist makers in New York City and whose failing strikes the meeting at Cooper Hall had been called to discuss, numbered only 100 members on the eve of the Uprising. The low membership numbers and marginal survival of the union was due to several factors. The first several years of the 20th century were hard hit by recession, making it difficult for unions to make demands that could be met by the employers. More importantly, perhaps, was the general attitude of labor organizers of the time towards women and Jews. The recent Jewish immigrants were seen by many unions as a threat to the job security of their workers, as they were seen as a source of cheaper and more easily controlled labor by the bosses. They were also victims of more general anti-Semitic andanti-immigrant prejudices, speaking a strange language, dressing differently, and practicing a "foreign" religion. Women were also maligned by the unions, for similar reasons: they were typically paid less then men and so threatened to take jobs away from male laborers. Also, women were not considered a "good investment" of labor organizers' time and efforts, as many worked in factories and shops only until they were married and had children, at which point most women workers withdrew from public labor, instead taking on the kinds of work that they could do at home: laundry washing, taking in boarders, and finishing garments parceled out by the manufacturers for home work.
When Local 25 called its meeting, then, few in the labor movement were prepared to take the demands of ladies' garment workers seriously, despite the fact that they made up over 80% of the workforce (75% of whom were also Jewish). Debate went on for hours, with the mostly-male union leadership endorsing a strategy of patience and negotiation against the workers' demands for a general strike. The meeting seemed destined to result in a stalemate when a teenage worker named Clara Lemlich, active in Local 25 and considered a troublemaker by many, took the stage. "I am a working girl, one of those striking against intolerable conditions," she announced in Yiddish. "I am tired of listening to speakers who talk in generalities. What we are here for is to decide whether or not to strike. I offer a resolution that a general strike be declared--now!"
The response of the crowd was tremendous, and Lemlich's resolution was quickly seconded. The union leadership was entirely unprepared for the massive response in the garment trades. 20,000 workers,or more, left their shops and joined the pickets. Relief centers were hastily set up to support the striking workers, most of whom were women. Union leaders gained a new-found appreciation of the capacities of women picketeers, as women were beaten by police and "gorillas"(thugs hired by the employers to menace the strikers) yet returned to the pickets once they were freed from jail and their wounds had healed. The strike ran through the winter until mid-February, when it was settled with a reduced work-week (52 hours) and some improvement of conditions, but without the union recognition that the workers had hoped for. The resolution of the strike was considered a defeat by many of the workers at the time, but laid the foundations for future victories. Local 25 emerged from the strike with a membership of 10,000--the first Local in the country to amass such high membership rolls. Inspired by the success of this largely unplanned and unprepared strike, the mostly-male Cloakmakers' Union went out on strike later in the year, with 60,000 workers leaving their shops and bringing the garment industry to a virtual standstill. This strike was resolved with the industry-wide "Protocol of Peace", which outlined a system of union-employer relations that greatly increased the accountability of the bosses to their employees (though, as is always the case in American labor history, it was never enough...). Most importantly, the Uprising of 20,000 established the importance of Jews and women--and particularly Jewish women--to the labor movement. Though they still had to struggle to control the conditions of their resistance (as with the conditions of their labor), women and Jews could no longer be ignored by any union claiming to represent the worker.
NoHo History
In 1748, what is now Lafayette and Astor Place, was New York's first botanical garden, established by a Swiss physician, Jacob Sperry, who farmed flowers and hothouse plants. A mile from what was then the edge of the city, Sperry's gardens became the destination of weekend strollers up Broad Way from Wall St and the City's Common (at Chambers St.). Fifty-six years later, Sperry sold his gardens to John Jacob Astor, who then leased the property to a Frenchman named Delacroix. Delacroix transformed Sperry's property into the fashionable Vauxhall Garden, where New Yorkers could also eat, drink, socialize, and be entertained by band music and, in the evenings, by fireworks and theatrical events.
But, by 1825, with real estate values skyrocketing on nearby Bond,
Bleecker, and Great Jones streets, Astor cut a broad street reducing the
garden to half its size, when Delacroix's lease was up. This
created Lafayette Place, christened by the Marquis de Lafayette himself
on his last visit to New York in July of 1825, from a platform raised at
the corner of Great Jones and Lafayette. (Visit
Historic Districts Council for background on efforts to Landmark
these very blocks) Astor realized
a great profit for the lots on Lafayette Place, named La Grange
after Lafayette's country home in France. The four northernmost
"mansions" remain as Colonnade Row.[1]
The five southern most houses were
destroyed in 1902 to make way for an annex to Wanamaker's Department
The University of the City of New York (now New York University),
established itself on the northeastern corner of Washington Square in a
building completed in 1837. At the time it was a
nondenominational, private university, established in 1831 by
Presbyterian and Dutch Reformed ministers in response to the
conservative curriculum and Episcopalian control of Columbia College.
The original building stood at this site until 1894.[2]
As this transpired, a wave of revolutions convulsing Europe precipitated a growing American disdain for monarchies, fueling tensions between working-class immigrants. The Astor Place Opera House, on the present site of the District 65 Building (UAW), became the site of the Astor Riot on May 10 1849, when vitriol between British thespian W.C. Macready, American actor Edwin Forrest and Sixth Ward Boss Isiah Rynders, a knife-fighting, English-hating Tammany politician, inspired anti-English mobs who stormed the Theater in the second act of MacBeth setting it on fire[3]. The disturbance brought out the militia and the police, who killed 22 (more by some accounts) and wounded 48; some 50 to 70 policemen were injured. .[4]
Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, a private tuition-free college provided by Peter Cooper to educate workers, opened in Astor Place in 1859, having also incorporated the Female School of Design founded to provide women with an alternative to menial labor. Public debates, lectures and speeches were held in the Great Hall, not the least of which was one delivered by Abraham Lincoln in 1860.[5]
In the aftermath of the Draft Riots of 1863, when Irish immigrants fearing their jobs would be taken by Black laborers if they were conscripted to fight in the Civil War, and during which 11 Black men were murdered with horrid brutality, the southeastern edge of the Village (NoHo and Nolita)) became "little Africa.[6]. In the late 1800s to early 1900s the East Village (NoHo's neighbor to the east) grew as the working class marched northward from the South St. Seaport (post Revolutionary War) and the Lower East Side (Civil War). This area pioneered social services including still extant institutions: Boys Club Headquarters (founded in 1876 1901) and a Young Women's Settlement House (1897). These institutions for immigrants and poor Americans provided free birth control, educational classes, libraries, and dental and health services. From the1850s the area north of Houston and east of Bowery was called Kleindeutschland for the throngs of German immigrants who lived in its tenements and worked the ironworks, piano factories, gas works and breweries south of 14th St. When these immigrants moved to Yorkville, it became "Bohemia" accommodating Eastern Europeans. Hundreds of tenement apartments became cigar factories; storefronts showcased milliners and cobblers, cabinetmakers and upholsterers.
Throughout, greater Greenwich Village steadfastly marched to its diverse destiny as the spiritual, educational, and cultural avant guarde of the City. It's sub neighborhoods-- NoHo, SoViLa, East Village, West Village--became the site of art clubs, private picture galleries, learned societies, literary salons, theaters and libraries. Interspersed in this fabric, fine hotels and shopping emporia also proliferated through the 1860's. As the poor and working class poured into the East Village, older residences were subdivided into cheap lodging hotels and multiple-family dwellings, or demolished for higher-density tenements. Plummeting real estate values prompted nervous retailers and genteel property along the Village's Broadway corridor to move north to Union Square.

|MEMS Capacitive Bending and Axial Strain Sensor - A three-dimensional micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) capacitive bending and axial strain sensor capacitor is described. Two independent comb structures, incorporating suspended polysilicon interdigitated fingers, are fabricated simultaneously on a substrate that can displace independently of each other while attached to a substrate undergoing bending or axial deformation. A change in spacing between the interdigitated fingers will output a change in capacitance of the sensor and is the primary mode of operation of the device. On the bottom and to the end of each comb structure, a glass pad is attached to the comb structure to allow for ample surface area for affixing the sensor to a substrate. During fabrication, tethers are used to connect each comb structure to maintain equal spacing between the fingers before attachment to the substrate. After attachment, the tethers are broken to allow independent movement of each comb structure.

Saving theoretical physicist Richard Feynman's epic van
Actually they're already done with the restoration!
It's parked on the lawn for display about half a mile away from my desk as part of a Tufte display that'll be here through the end of the month.
Speaking of lost things by Feynman: I've sometimes been curious about a particular massage-parlor painting described at considerable length in "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" He wrote that it wound up with a weather forcaster, but I've never heard of it otherwise. I wonder if it's still out there somewhere?
Not sure how this van is epic.
It's actually a very subtle Art Van, covered with Feynman diagrams for various particles, including one particle, the Z Boson, that hadn't actually been discovered yet when it was painted on.
"Hey, why do you have Feynman diagrams all over your van?"
"Because I'm Feynman"
Richard did a lot of things that can be answered with that question.
"Hey, why are you doing physics problems in this topless bar?"
"Because I'm Feynman".

"Doers Gotta Do"
Today's Words of Wisdom:
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
~Oscar Wilde
The Foda's Take: I just adore Oscar Wilde's witty ripostes. Don't you?
Hi folks! Sorry I haven't been posting as much lately. I've been researching a side project and its pretty much consumed all my allotted writing time. So let's just jump right in!
For the past couple weeks, I've been gnawing over something, all dog-with-a-bone like, trying to figure out the answer. What is it, you ask? Welp, let's go back. It all started when I had a conversation about how "doers gotta do." If you're a doer, the way you feel proud, accomplished, needed, and valuable in the world is by, well, doing. I, my friends, am a doer. Only one small hiccup here, however… due to my current state of nasty neurological Lyme-i-ness, there is precious little I can, in point of fact… do….
Which, a wise lady pointed out to me, means that I really need to find a new way to feel proud, accomplished, needed, and valuable. Unless I want to continue to hold myself up to the standards of the woman I was several years ago when my life was, for all intents and purposes, normal. So the easy answer is: I'm accomplished, needed, and valuable just by being meeee!!!!!! ….But… "just sit and look pretty" is not a philosophy I subscribe to… and while I know everyone's special just as they are, I also cater to the core belief that it's what people do in this world that matters. And just being a good-hearted person from the confines of my home just doesn't seem like enough…
Hence, the conundrum.
I get that I need to reconfigure my standards of awesomeness. I get that I can't berate myself for not being able to "do" like I used to. I get that I must be okay with no longer having the capability to "prove myself" to the world… something ambitious, over-zealous me always felt like she had to do.
I think I have to go smaller. Like Ewok small. Notice the small things I can do, the ways I treat people, the connections I can make.
But it still doesn't quite feel like enough.
I don't really have an answer for you today. I wish I did. But maybe, just maybe, one of you out there in the Words of Wisdom universe has muddled through this conundrum before and has an answer or little nugget of wisdom for me.
If you do, I am all ears. Huge ones. Green. With hair. Like Yoda's.
Thoughtfully yours,
