I actually read most of this fable whilst simultaneously watching the 1999 film adaptation with Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: Next Generation, X-Men).
I didn't realise until I read this that some of the humorous bits had passed me by in the adaptations and found myself laughing at Scrooge's
very uncharitable and gloomy nature, and later the reactions to his death.
My absolute favourite character was Scrooge's nephew and his persistent attempts to befriend his uncle, always offering an invitation to Christmas dinner every year. I loved his perceptiveness in observing and understanding Scrooge's behaviour (and taking it without offence). It was spot on.
Scrooge: "What right have you to be merry? What reason have you to merry? You're poor enough."
Nephew: "What right have you to be dismal? What reason have you to be morose? You're rich enough."
Scrooge: "Bah! Humbug!"
However, the narrative was very wordy so I did resort to skimming quite a bit of the descriptions to get to the good stuff i.e. the dialogue.
It was a good seasonal read to get me in to the spirit of Christmas. 'And so, as Tiny Tim observed, God bless Us, Every One!'
Mend your ways. NOW.

review 2morrow gtg to sleep or i might choke on my tiredness
This is an okay book, but I don't understand the reason why it made it to the "1001 Books to Read Before You Die" list (in fact, I don't understand why majority of the books are in the list). I do accept the fact that some people may have a moment of insight (which doesn't necessarily need to happen in the Christmas holidays) and completely change their personalities in a couple of hours, but I still thought the book was very... forceful in these terms. But then again, this seems to be a book meant to be read by the end of the year, when everybody has that fuzzy feeling within their hearts. Or maybe just to give some hope to children, whatever. This book is not bad. It's not even THAT boring. But I also don't see what's the big deal with it.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0486268659, Paperback)In the history of English literature, Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol, which has been continuously in print since it was first published in the winter of 1843, stands out as the quintessential Christmas story. What makes this charming edition of Dickens's immortal tale so special is the collection of 80 vivid illustrations by Everett Shinn (1876-1953). Shinn, a well-known artist in his time, was a popular illustrator of newspapers and magazines whose work displayed a remarkable affinity for the stories of Charles Dickens, evoking the bustling street life of the mid-1800s. Printed on heavy, cream-colored paper stock, the edges of the pages have been left rough, simulating the way in which the story might have appeared in Dickens's own time. Though countless editions of this classic have been published over the years, this one stands out as particularly beautiful, nostalgic, and evocative of the spirit of Christmas.

We've experienced Mr. Korda's commanding presence before. (Remember when he was here in November 2007 (photo at right) to talk about Ike: An American Hero?) I say "commanding" because he is nothing short of it. His command of the information, the history, the words, his voice, and any room he enters is something to behold. Whether reading from his book or in discussion, he has the unique ability to transport the listener.
We are delighted that Michael Korda wanted to return to Darien Library! With Wings Like Eagles, released just a few weeks ago, is already being considered the only book that describes the political maneuvering and behind-the-scenes strategizing that surrounded the Battle of Britain. This bestselling author has received excellent reviews for this latest book, including the following from Diana Preston of The Washington Post:
"…passionate and eloquent …With Wings Like Eagles is a skillful, absorbing, often moving contribution to the popular understanding of one of the few episodes in history to live on untarnished and undiminished in the collective memory and to deserve the description "heroic."
Personally, I am preparing for another memorable evening at the Library and I am immersing myself in the time period. After reading With Wings Like Eagles, I watched the new dvd, Flying the Secret Sky: The Story of the Royal Air Force Ferry Command and am currently reading Ken Follett's suspense tale set in the early days of WWII, Hornet Flight. Of course, you don't need to prepare for this fabulous author event which is part of our Grand Opening Author Series...just be prepared to be mesmerized.
A reception and book signing will follow the presentation. Books will be available for purchase.
So, there we were in our new Green building (LEED Gold!) with our second author in our Grand Opening Author Series, Deirdre Imus! Deirdre, the author of the bestselling "Green This!" series, has a new book out -- The Essential Green You! : Easy Ways To Detox Your Diet, Your Body, And Your Life, and she was here last night to talk to us about all things GREEN. From the state of our health (especially that of our children), to the impact of cleaning products, makeup, toiletries, plastics, fabrics, food, soy, dairy, toxic jeans, toxic tee shirts...
There were several audience members taking notes last night and lots more that purchased one (or all) of Deirdre's books. A book signing followed the presentation and the author was so gracious and enthusiastic -- chatting with all that came up to the table.
We had a huge crowd last night for this event. We are pleased and proud to have been able to bring such an important program to Darien -- one that's clearly important to our Members. We extend a huge thank you to Dierdre Imus for bringing such grace and warmth to what is often a scary and cold topic.
P.S. She loved our Library!
Last night, we held our first event in our new Community Room. We wanted to open with something big...something unforgettable. What would bring folks out on a cold January afternoon? Pete Hamill!
The house was packed for this special event. Hamill was superb -- he is the perfect mix of intelligence and street-smarts, eloquence and ordinary, philosophical and realistic, sophistication and homespun, which is probably why everyone seemed to greet him as a friend.
He talked about his life, his work, the state of the world today, and he talked about libraries(!). His stories were full of pride, hope, humor, and history...a lot like him. Wow. We were so fortunate to have heard him speak and to meet him!
He was thoughtful and generous with his time and his remarks throughout the afternoon and evening. After the presentation, there was a long line of people waiting to have books signed -- he thanked them for their patience and was attentive to each individual that approached him (he gave what I'm sure was precious advice to a young journalism student and a kiss to a woman that asked(!))...there were so many memorable encounters.
This event was the perfect high note in our Grand Opening crescendo.
A huge thank you to Pete Hamill. New Yorker. Gentleman. Craftsman. Icon.
(Doors open at 4:30)
A reception and book signing will follow the presentation. Books will be available for purchase.
We may have been closed, but we did not stop planning interesting and exciting Library programs. We are eager to tell you all about our upcoming events! Certainly, the Grand Opening on January 10th is our biggest event. Opening our doors to the public again will be a grand day, indeed.
We are off to a running start with a Grand Opening Author Series and the return of our Friday Film Series.
We will kick off the Author Series at 5 p.m. on January 25th with a program featuring Pete Hamill . In the following weeks and months, we'll be visited by Deirdre Imus, Michael Korda, Arthur and Pauline Frommer, Christina Pugh, Ilene Beckerman and Giulia Melucci, and Randall Jones.
Also, this month, we will begin our Friday Film Series. On January 30th at 7:30 p.m., we open with The Visitor. One of the few sleeper hits of the year, this movie is showing up on lots of "Best of 2008" lists (I know it's on mine.)
We know you won't want to miss any of these memorable events! (We're already well underway planning more spring and summer events. Whatever the season, whatever the reason, we are the place. )
We are very pleased and proud to announce the New Darien Library's Grand Opening Author Series! We are happy too, that the celebratory mood of our Grand Opening will continue for several months. Please join us for these special events which are sure to be memorable. A reception and book signing will follow each of these presentations.(Books will be available for purchase.)

Dear Diary, Last night, Lily Koppel, author of The Red Leather Diary: Reclaiming a Life Through the Pages of a Lost Journal, spoke at the Library. What a fabulous presentation, and what a fabulous young woman! We'd read the book so we already knew that Florence Wolfson, the keeper of the real red leather diary was an interesting, vivacious, and intelligent woman. Last night, we got to see what kind of woman Lily Koppel is and we are really impressed (and now we know why Florence opened up to her). Lily is instantly likable; smart, articulate, thoughtful in her words and actions, a great storyteller, and most importantly...she really listens when people speak. The audience loved her and couldn't wait to talk with her. "Best program ever!" someone exclaimed. "I hope she comes back!" another said. Here are pictures from the evening that many did not want to see end.
Well, Diary, that's all for today. We had a great evening, thanks to Lily! We're glad we got to meet her.
We have no shortage of events at the Library during the month of October. On the schedule, we have a Meet the Author Program, our Foreign Film Series begins, and we return with our Short Story Discussion Group.
This Thursday, October 2nd at 7 p.m., Lily Koppel will be here to talk about her wonderful book, The Red Leather Diary: Reclaiming a Life Through the Pages of a Lost Journal.
Our Foreign Film Series begins on Friday, October 10th. Show time is at 7:30 p.m. and doors will open at 7.
Reserve Tuesday afternoons from 3-4 for our instantly-popular Short Story Discussion Group. Short Stories For Shorter Days begins on October 7th.
For a full list of all of our October happenings, click here.
When New York Times reporter Lily Koppel came into possession of a crumbling 75 year old diary rescued from an Upper West Side dumpster, little did she know that it would change her life. The Red Leather Diary: Reclaiming a Life Through the Pages of a Lost Journal is a remarkable story in many ways and Lily will be here at the Library this Thursday, October 2nd at 7 p.m. to talk about it.
The diary is one that was kept by Florence Wolfson during the years 1929-34...5 years in the life of a privileged young woman (beginning at age 14). Through the pages of the diary, Lily became acquainted with a New York City of another time, and of even greater significance, she "met" Florence. The entries are filled with sophisticated musings, cultural observations, teenage crushes, love affairs...literary and emotional adventures and journeys. It's candid and frank, as a diary should be and what would be the chances of locating the author of the diary??? Well, Lily hired a private detective, reunited diary and diarist, and she emerges with a beautiful and full story, and a friend. Through her intimate conversations with Florence, at age 90, the brief diary entries spring to life.
Personal photographs are included, and the young woman in the pictures is unmistakably the modern, adventurous girl from the diary.
Come and join us Thursday evening and meet Lily Koppel and learn more about The Red Leather Diary. A book signing will follow the presentation and books will be available for purchase.
Refreshments will be served.
Hope to see you there! In the meantime, to listen to a brief interview with the author, click here.
We are so excited.
Brad Meltzer, the author of The Book of Lies will be here on Sunday at 5:30 p.m. It's the same day that his new book debuts at #2 on The New York Times bestseller list (so we know he'll be in a good mood). We've read the book. We've heard him speak. We cannot express more urgently how much we know you'll enjoy this program.
In The Book of Lies, Meltzer poses the question: What does Cain, the world's first villain, and Superman, the world's first superhero have in common?
Definitely, a discussion-starter.
This thriller expertly melds the story of the murder of Superman-creator Jerry Siegler's father with a dangerous present-day race to find the world's first murder weapon – that which was used by Cain to kill Abel. It's a bold book; it challenges assumptions about Cain killing Abel, heroes and villains, and Meltzer brings into the story a real murder, that of Mitchell Siegel, the father of Jerry Siegel, who created Superman and these stories are woven together in a fast-paced, fascinating, code-breaking drama. After all, explains Meltzer, it was the murder of his father in a store robbery that led the young Jerry to create a bullet-proof man called Superman.
Janet and I had the chance to talk to Brad last week and it was immediately apparent that he has the ability to engage right away and his enthusiasm is contagious . You can listen to a podcast of that conversation right here. You'll certainly want to hear more, so please join us on Sunday (promptly at 5:30 p.m.) for what's sure to be a memorable event.
There will be a reception and book signing following the presentation and books will be available for purchase.
See you on Sunday!

Verizon Offering Treo 700p
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Broadband, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Wireless / WiFi
For those haters that wanted a new Treo, but weren't feeling Windows Mobile, you can finally snap up the Treo 700p from Verizon starting on June 1. The 700p runs the Palm OS and runs for $499 USD with a $100 rebate, winding up at $399. Of course, if you want to actually use the phone, you are gonna have to keep paying, as $80 per month is the cheapest plan offered for the smartphone, which hooks you up with unlimited EVDO usage (good!) but just 450 minutes of talk time per month (bad!). Still, this is a phone that we expect the business types to migrate towards, so the lure of unlimited data is where it's at.

For those with Sprint service, it is definitely in your best interest to look into the SERO plan. SERO stands for (Sprint Emloyee Referral Offer, I believe). Cool thing is they don't seem to be too strict about it and in many cases don't even ask who your friend/referral is. Meaning anyone can do it even if they don't know someone who works there. And there are plenty of ways to find out the email of someone that does work there regardless:
Basics of the plan(s):
500 Minutes $30.00
1250 Minutes $49.99
2500 Minutes $99.99
1000 Minutes (free incoming) $99.99
All plans come with:
Unlimited Sprint Vision or Power Vision Included Free
Unlimited Night & Weekend Minutes (starts at 9pm)
Nationwide Long Distance
Crystal-Clear Calls
Voice Mail
Caller ID
Call Waiting
Numeric Paging
Three-Way Calling
People have also been having luck adding on free 500 text messagesk, nights starting at 6 or 7 and a few others discounts having to do with payments. The mains factor in getting one of these plans is either luck in getting a rep that doesn't care and will work with you to find it or persistance…meaning calling back until you find someone that will do it for you.
Although you can find info on it all over the place, this thread is a great start with all the needed info and tips:
Cliff notes: excellent prices on sprint plans with unlimited EVDO and other goodies.

Anonymous asked: The only member with light colour hair? What about Kasai Tomomi? would you call her gyaru? she's Tomochin's best friend and she has light hair colour, gets her nails done, and is fashionable,you want to call her gyaru too? Tomochin is not the only member that has her hair dyed, what about Mariko, Kojiharu, Takamina and graduated Oshima Mai etc. btw gyaruchin was only a one time thing, she wore a wig for that and it didn't look very gyaru either.
Why are you even fighting me on this? LOL You're anonymous haha Its not a big deal. If a Japanese person looks at pictures of all the girls with dyed hair from AKB48, most of the people will point at Tomochin if they were asked which one of the girls are gyaru. Its just the look of that Tomochin has that makes her gyaru. None of the other members have the gyaru look that Tomochin has. And Tomomi Kasai is not Tomochins best friend. Her best friend is Reina Trindle. LOL

Pettine joins the Browns after spending 2013 as the defensive coordinator for the Buffalo Bills and the 2009-12 seasons as the defensive coordinator for the New York Jets. Pettine has helped his units to a top 10 finish in total defense in all five of his seasons as a defensive coordinator.
"We are thrilled to announce Mike Pettine as the new head coach of the Cleveland Browns," said Owner Jimmy Haslam. "Mike is the epitome of what we want the Browns to be -- tough, aggressive and innovative -- with a blue-collar, team-first mentality. He knows what's necessary to beat teams in the AFC North. Most importantly, Mike has repeatedly shown the ability to lead his players to consistent improvement and success, clearly what we are striving for as he leads the Cleveland Browns moving forward."
The beleaguered Browns finished the 2013-2014 season with a 4-12 record and fired head coach Rob Chudzinski after one year on the job. Pettine will be the third head coach in as many years for a team that has not finished a season with more than five wins in the past six years.
Prior to joining the NFL ranks, Pettine was the head coach at North Penn High School in Towamencin, Pa., from 1997-2001. He led the school to 45 wins in five seasons, including an 11-2 record in 1999. He also served as the head coach for two years at William Tennent High School in Warminster, Pa., where he led the team to a school-record nine wins in 1996.
His father, Mike, Sr., was the head coach for 33 years at Central Bucks West High School in Doylestown, Pa., where Pettine played under his father and earned all-state honors as a quarterback and defensive back. He later served as an assistant coach on his father's staff for five seasons (1988-92). Mike Sr., retired as a head coach after the 1999 campaign as the winningest coach in the history of Pennsylvania high school football with a career record of 326-32-4.
Pettine is the second local-grown football coach to make recent headlines. On Jan. 11, Neshaminy grad James Franklin
officially signed on as Penn State's new football coach.

Sports Illustrated Fenway: A Fascinating First Century [Review]
Fenway Park opened its doors for an "Open House" today, on the eve of the 100th anniversary of Fenway's first game. Red Sox fans tend to think of this place like a kid brother — only we get to say how lousy the ballpark is — but, it's a rare treat to see the park as the players see it, to check out the interior of the manual scoreboard ("If you look over here," I imagine a tour guide saying, "you'll see where Manny Ramirez may or may not have used the bathroom during a pitching change…"), and to get their feet on that hallowed ground without fear of being tackled by security.
But if you're not among the lucky that are there today, the next best thing to getting a guided tour of the stadium is the recently released Sports Illustrated Fenway: A Fascinating First Century.
Spanning 100 years of Fenway lore, the book uses new and old material to illustrate the changes the park has seen over the years through the eyes of those that played and those that cheered.
It's organized by decade, which makes this a great "open it up to any page" book, if a rather choppy long read. Some decades get more attention than others; like many Sox fans, the book seems to want to forget the '80s completely. I would also caution the reader to just avoid the intro to the book. It is well-meaning, but relies on a floundering and forced Dracula analogy that reads as if Steve Rushin doubled down when he realized how shaky the premise was.
What the book lacks in prose, it more than makes up for in pictures - an SI specialty. There are fantastic photos in this collection that I have never seen, and many are sure to be a conversation-starter for any Sox fan. From the images of the early construction site to the snapshot of Pete Rose in a suit in the grandstand, pictures help put the park in context and drive home one overarching theme; Fenway has always been in transition. While the park is often considered a throw-back to an earlier time, SI's tome shows how Fenway has endured countless and continuous structural, cosmetic, and policy changes over the years. The book also provides some interesting shots of the many replicas of Fenway Park, from minor league ballparks to wiffleball parks. Fenway may very well be the stadium equivalent of the Beatles' "Yesterday" - the most 'covered' park of all time.
The book reminds us of how Fenway has taken on a life of its own. To be sure, it has its drawbacks, but it also has its stories. And I venture to guess every Red Sox fan has a Fenway story (mine involves running onto the field during the first all-star rehearsal after a late night out with friends… but that's for a different post). For all of us, to preserve the place is to preserve those stories and those moments. As far as I'm concerned, the now-suspended Save Fenway Park movement was less about securing the structure's future and more about preserving the past.

The last section of the book is dropped in like an afterthought, but to me was one of the best resources - The Fenway 100: Favorite Factoids. Can you believe there was "Caddie Night" where they gave away golf balls to fans? Upon losing, it turned into a more dangerous version of "Dozen Egg Night." The only incorrect factoid I noticed in this list was that "There has never been perfect game thrown at Fenway." I beg to differ; as far as I'm concerned, the Yankees threw a perfect game:

Data center power usage is soaring -- the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that data center energy requirements will double in the next five years. To address that surge in energy use, some companies are turning to alternative sources of energy, including solar arrays, natural gas turbines, wind power, fuel cells, and hydro power. But one big question is whether these power sources will deliver a return on investment in the near future.
Ted Ritter, an analyst at Nemertes Research Group, says many companies are having a hard time justifying an investment in alternative power sources right now -- especially if it means completely replacing the reliable AC power already coming into their buildings, as opposed to merely supplementing it.
[ Stay ahead of the key tech business news with InfoWorld's Today's Headlines: First Look newsletter. | Read Bill Snyder's Tech's Bottom Line blog for what the key business trends mean to you. ]
But some users are forging ahead with alternative energy projects anyway, figuring on a payoff within 15 years.
For the North County Transit District (NCTD) in San Diego, solar was the most obvious choice for alternative power. The organization's data center is relatively small, but it's big enough to enable the agency to handle ticketing for 12 million public transportation users annually and process video from security cameras in transit stations.
Angela Miller, the transit agency's CIO, says her group felt a need to be a better environmental citizen. As part of a data center redesign, the agency spent about $600,000 on a 30-panel solar array, invested in virtualization technology for server and storage systems, and bought new pods that pull hot air out and help cool equipment inside the racks.
The NCTD sells solar-generated power back to the local utility to earn credits on AC power usage (which is allowed under California law), meaning the solar initiative has become a profit center. The solar panels don't generate power for the building directly.
It works like this: The local utility sells AC power to the NCTD, then the agency sells the utility the solar energy for a 100 percent credit. The agency has a five-year plan in place to offset all AC power in its data center. The NCTD generates up to 450 kilowatt-hours of electricity, and it plans to reach 1 megawatt-hour in five years.
"Solar is what has made the [data center redesign] project even have an ROI," says Miller.
Bob Mobach, a consultant at systems integrator Logicalis Group, helped the NCTD redesign its data center. He says a key to realizing an ROI with alternative power is embracing virtualization. The agency's data center is about 80 percent virtualized, and that's a primary reason why the solar arrays are such a successful power source.
"Virtualization was critical for so many reasons," says Miller, noting that the new setup is "way more efficient," makes better use of hardware, gives the data center a smaller footprint and is easier to manage with fewer people. "My actual physical footprint went from not having any more slots in the racks available to having only half of the racks occupied, and yet we've increased our applications this year," she says.

"Ordered a sample in the yellow. Paper quality is great. Paper is a little crinkly (ordered the basic paper) which I like. Paper stands up well. Love the colors. The website mock up is pretty darn close to the actual colors which is great!!"
"These place cards are great! Very simple chic, I'm glad we went with the white shimmer paper it added a little extra glam."
"These are great little place cards - perfect size and the designer was great. I'm looking forward to adding everyone's names!"
"I went with the matte paper. The combination of the white paper and purple flowers looks amazing. The floral design is exactly as it appears in the picture. Although it looks small it gives a simple elegance to the card. I didn't print our names or the date of our wedding on the cards (I did keep the line to write the number) to ensure that the person writing our guests' names would have plenty if space. Even if you add some script on the top there's enough room to for most names. For the money these cards are very nice. I'm glad I ordered them."
"In agonizing over how to address placards, it became obvious due to the size that one per person was necessary and I hadn't ordered enough. Re ordered and recd in time for my wedding!"

Cats pose a serious threat to biodiversity: Why do we accept it? What should be done?
According to the ASPCA, there are around 90 million owned domestic cats (Felis catus) in the U.S., and taking into account strays and feral cats, the total number is estimated to be as high as 160 million (1). Loss et al. (2013) estimates that cats roaming outdoors kill 1.4-3.7 BILLION birds and 6.9-20.7 BILLION mammals in the U.S. annually (2). Reptiles and amphibians such as snakes, lizards, frogs, etc., are also frequently killed by cats.
Cats are even more popular New Zealand, where they are contributing to declines of endemic birds such as the critically endangered kakapo (3), which have evolved in the absence of predators. Businessman/philanthropist Gareth Morgan is trying to gather support for legislation that would aggressively deal with stray and feral cats and potentially eliminate cats from New Zealand to take pressure off of threatened species (4 & 5). With Morgan's plan, in addition to regulation that would reduce cat populations and increase owner accountability, residents would be encouraged to not replace their cats. As of now the majority of New Zealanders surveyed are in opposition to Morgan's initiative.
Would a proposition like Morgan's meet similar resistance in the U.S.? Probably, but is he on the right track? Would you personally support something like it for your state or country? Why or why not is it a good idea? Is this type of legislation necessary to curb the problem and protect wildlife? If you disagree, what are some alternatives? Will the aesthetics and familiarity of cats keep them off limits to such ideas in the opinions of the general public?

Closing Statement from Jon Cox
Thanks to everyone who contributed to a thought provoking discussion!
I think we can all agree that we need to be responsible with our pets! For the sake of ecological and human health. And pet owners must realize that their carelessness is costly. Plans to completely eliminate cats from areas where they are very popular are pretty far fetched, but stricter regulation is a must, and domestic cats do NOT belong in the wild, period. Feral cats need to be seen and dealt with just as any other invasive species. However, extreme caution is necessary in any attempt to remove them where they have become established as a keystone species.
Check out Australian cat laws for a look at the legislation adopted by a people who cherish their native wildlife and do not want to see it be destroyed by invasives.
And lastly, we must keep in mind that invasive species are just one way in which we threaten biodiversity. Overexploitation and especially habitat loss pose even greater threats to species survival.
Thanks again!

edward long 100+May 6 2013: Cats are made to kill. It's what they do. We have domesticated a creature that is genetically predisposed to stalk and kill. If we do not allow the cat to stalk and kill it becomes neurotic. We then bag and drown them, or turn them loose in the park. Our local riparian park had a population of burrowing owls who thrived for a few years then suddenly began to disappear. Park officials determined feral cats were killing the owls faster than they could reproduce. Now all we have is many vacant owl nests and scores of mangy, diseased killer cats prowling the park. If anyone was caught trying to take it upon themself to remedy the situation they would be criminally prosecuted and vilified on the evening news. Cat lovers unite and control your cats just as dog owners are legally bound to control theirs.
May 7 2013: It sounds like you know something about cats, which I don't. Is this dependent on type of cat? For example, my sister has three indoor cats that aren't neurotic at all. They obviously are not killing things.
I do know something about dogs. It is in their nature to chase things and to chew on things and even tear them apart. So one gives them things (not owls!) that are okay to chew, chase, and even tear apart. Otherwise, they would likely find something in the house to chew and destroy.
Does it not work for cats?
edward long 100+May 7 2013: I am guilty of generalizing a bit Fritzie. I'm sure my scenario does not describe 100% of the world's domesticated cats. But it does describe the scenario that leads to the elimination of other species from a given location. It is a very real problem. Next time you visit your sister take a little bird or a mouse with you and watch the emergence of the cat's natural behaviors which your sister has so successfully suppressed. Dogs might kill to survive, or if bred specifically to be violent. As evidenced by the dead, dismembered, but uneaten birds in my yard cats stalk and kill for practice, it's what they do naturally. I cannot have bird feeders in my own yard because neighborhood cat owners do not control their furry little cold-blooded killers. Ugly but true.
May 7 2013: Honestly, I have always kept indoor-only cats (it is safer and healthier for them) and they have never gone neurotic. You replace their natural prey with cat toys and they can stalk and kill just as they please, it is a perfect substitute. While cats were made to kill, not all of them still know how to. Some of my cats in the past have been very good at alerting us when a strange critter has entered the house, and they may show interest and play with it, but when it comes down to the killing part they are clueless. It is true, however, that once a cat has been roaming outside and you try to confine it indoors it will beg to go outside and may become neurotic. But if they are raised indoors and never taken outside, no problems.
Edward, you bring up a very interesting point about the rules dog owners face. Why is it that dog owners have many laws that control their pets (from leash laws to breed bans) but cat owners have none? A curious discrepancy...

"This graduation announcement is simple elegance. The final product was very pretty. I am very happy. I would recommend the shiny finish over the matte. I ordered the matte on a previous product and the shiny finish is much more appealing."
"This product was perfect! Everyone has loved the design, color, and layout. It was so creative and different from all of the other graduation announcements I have seen so far this year. I have already told numerous people about the site for those who still have not ordered them because they can get them quickly with quality."
"I was thrilled with our son's college graduation announcement...it turned out perfect, and Tinyprint's design staff helped me every step of the way and had helpful suggestions to guide me to success."
"We received SO many compliments on this graduation announcement. These were a little bit more $, but really worth it. The option of putting a picture on the back made these very special and unique graduation cards. The quality of the paper is outstanding - it's actually like a keepsake because it's so nice you just want to frame it! The cardstock is heavy and gorgeous and the envelopes were high quality. Get the matching return address labels, and you really have a beautiful set to send to family and friends."
"The technique to design our 4 photo graduation celebration invitation was very easy.The turnaround time on proof design, changes and completion of final product was within 24hrs. I was quite impressed. I will definitely use Tiny Prints again!"

the interior of this space is unattractive. it just feels like a big store that's been emptied out and then had a counter, some tables and some chairs imported so they could call it a cafe. the patio in the back is cramped and the acoustic inside are annoying. the staff is personable; the food, decent but unremarkable; the crowd, friendly enough. overall, it feels like a missed opportunity.

I had the smoked tempeh wrap with chipotle mayo and it was unbelievably delicioius. I work ten blocks south but hike up here a couple times a week. It's really just a cafe with great food and New Order on the soundtrack, which made me feel like I was in college again...except its a decade later...

This laid back vegetarian restaurant has great sandwiches, salads, pastries, and soup. The servings are generous. The Roasted Vegetable Panini, Vegan Panini and Chocolate Cherry cookie are some of my favorites. It's not fancy, but it's comfortable. The owners and people who work there make you feel welcome. There's an eclectic mix of music on the CD player and paintings or photos by a local artist on display. It reminds me a bit of 1960's Greenwich Village coffee houses. If you want a tasty meal, go to 'Snice. It's nice.

'snice (horrible name, IMHO) used to be a hardware store--the oldest hardware store in the city, in fact. (The store, Garber's Hardware, still exists over on Washington Street.) They have retained the orange color scheme, and used it to good effect. They also have a High Line motif going on; the owner, an affable guy named Mike told me this himself. But it's the food, stupid. They have the best soups, and sandwiches, and cakes, and muffins...and it's all vegetarian; much of it is vegan. The vegan cupcakes are loved by one and all (one of those "I can't believe it's vegan" things.) My favorite sandwich there has the unappetizing name of "Vegan Panini;" not surprisingly, it's the favorite sandwich of many other customers, too. They now also have a 'snice in Park Slope; I haven't been there yet, but it's another reason to love Brooklyn.

Among vegetarian places in the area, I stay faithful to 'SNICE. I've tried almost everything from the menu, no complaints. I work in Tribeca and I walk to 'snice to eat or take out. The hummus sandwich with roasted red peppers, the tempeh reuben with kraut and the smoked tempeh wrap with avocado a must try. Their salads and smoothies with soy milk are just great. Healthy and fresh food. I know they opened another one is Park slope this past summer, I want to check it out.

Where else can my picky vegan friends enjoy heartful, tasty 'wiches in the city? The setting is great; spacious seating areas, sensible waiters who know better not to nag customers. All 'wiches are accompanied by fresh, colorful salads. I have no complaints about this place.

It's surprisingly hard in Manhattan to find a reasonably comfortable place to have lunch and read. It is equally hard to find cheap vegetarian food. This is why I am not totally trashing this place. However, there is someone who works at 'Snice who is extremely rude to customers. He made a snide comment to me once while I was waiting on line, and I have witnessed him chastise a number of customers quite rudely. Most of the people who work there are polite and efficient, but having witnessed this one man (a manager, perhaps?) in action, I have dubbed him 'Snasty. The food is good, and the place has a modest but comfortable decor, but when you go, watch out for 'Snasty.

We stayed in the West Village for three weeks last summer near 'sNice, and it became our go-to place for breakfast, and for lunch if we were nearby. Good coffee and interesting, tasty, and healthy menu choices make 'sNice a winner, and the efficient staff, interesting regulars, and fast Internet seal the deal. Our daughter is in NYC right now with college friends, and just texted me for directions to 'sNice.

It is no secret the area's homeless shelters are packed with people who need jobs, even if they are temporary ones.
But people living at the shelters asked us for help when some temp jobs they worked at for days did not end with a paycheck.
If you have not heard a lot about these scams, there is a reason. After talking to staff at a couple of shelters in town, the staff do not know about all of them.
They say whether it is embarrassment or taking away the people who live there's dignity, there are not a lot of people willing to talk about their experiences.
Jen Engquist, the Community Center and Member Relations Director with Churches United for the Homeless shelter in Moorhead, has seen a scam first hand with a man who used to live at the shelter.
"We saw him get picked up every morning to go to work," says Engquist.
She says she was with him when the phone calls to pick the person up for work stopped coming. There was no compensation for the work.
Engquist says, "I wanted so badly to find out, to get to the root of what happened here, and how this could possibly be."
Routinely companies call looking for people to work. But shelters like Churches United are non-profit organizations and face limitations.
"We're a small staff with lots of people staying here," says Engquist.
Little background checking can be carried out on most of the companies.
We at Valley News Live wanted to look into one of the companies. It is the one that has not paid the man who was at Churches United. The company owner owes the man for nearly 60 hours of work.
We got the owner of Ace Siding LLC out of Erskine, Minnesota on the phone and asked him why he did not pay the man for 60 hours of work and why he stopped picking him up from the shelter.
The owner said, "He called and said I can't do the job."
After a few minutes, he said he had to go, but he called back a couple minutes later.
"Have him call me today, right now. I will have a check for him on Friday," said the owner.
While this employer decided that he would do the right thing, Engquist knows there are others who will not.
"I wish that there was something we could do from the inside of this building to protect these guys," says Engquist.
The only thing more hurtful to her after putting forth time and energy to help find jobs for those at the shelter is how society will view them.
She says, "People judge homelessness. They say that these people don't want to work. They're lazy. They're bums. And we see these guys get up and go to work every single day. And when they get scammed, that's a complete dishonor."
Before heading to air, we talked to Churches United about what they owner told us.
They said they think it is incredible that the owner is now willing to pay the man. They still think it is shameful for the owner to take advantage of people in a vulnerable situation.
We will be following this story to bring you updates on whether or not the owner does pay the man.

If your dissertation research focuses on environmental issues (places, people, practices) outside the U.S., but your dissertation will draw conclusions or propose solutions/ideas about U.S. environmental policy and/or environmental conflict resolution, you are eligible to apply. You must demonstrate in your application that your work will somehow have implications for U.S. environmental policy and/or ECR. However, it is the Foundation's intent that work conducted during the fellowship year take place in the U.S.
If you cannot guarantee that you will have a completed Ph.D. dissertation by July of 2013, we recommend that you apply the following year.
The Udall Fellowship selection committee meets in early April, and is typically composed of past Udall Fellows and PhDs in the fields of environmental policy and/or environmental conflict resolution. Fellowship applications are reviewed and ranked by all three members of the selection committee. The selection committee chooses two fellows and two alternates from a shortlist of the top ten applicants.

Two of Three Stabbing Suspects Released
Bloomingdale, Fla.- (970 WFLA) -- The Hillsborough sheriff's office says two of the three suspects arrested in the stabbing that took the life of 54 year old Kenneth Lee Redding, at the Bloomingdale 7-Eleven, can't be connected to the crime.
Russell Beasley and Brandan Green are cooperating with investigators and are considered witnesses. They've been released from custody. Detectives are still trying to figure out how they got the lottery tickets they were caught trying to cash in Nokomis. 20 year old Lawrence Bongiovanni (pictured), is believed to be the stabber. He remains in jail in Charlotte County, where he was caught last night.

In the first decision of its kind, a federal judge has ordered state officials to provide a taxpayer-funded sex-change for a transsexual prisoner, after finding that the treatment is the only adequate care for the inmate's gender identity disorder.
District Court Chief Judge Mark L. Wolf said that the treatment for Michelle Kosilek, convicted of murder, had been prescribed by Department of Correction doctors. He said the only arguments for denying it were based on social bias against that type of surgery.

A warm slice of Tortilla Española is one of the simple delights of Spanish cuisine. This comforting combination of diced potatoes, fresh eggs and sautéed onions can be found in bars and cafes in every part of the country. Tortilla is usually cut into a wedge and served as a tapa or snack. It is also served in a bocadillo sandwich between two pieces of crusty bread.
Now you can enjoy this Spanish classic at home, in just a few minutes! We discovered a tortilla that is made fresh in Spain from all natural ingredients. Made by Alinaco in Navarra, it is fully cooked and just needs to be reheated and served.
Cooking a fresh tortilla at home can take the better part of an hour, and takes some experience to do right, so we often find it easier to heat up one of these premade tortillas. And to tell the truth, they often taste better than our homemade creations! We think it is because the potatoes and other ingredients are from Spain, giving it a distinct flavor that is impossible to recreate here.
These tortillas are delicious, convenient and popular with children and adults alike. Bring the classic comfort food of Spain to your home.

Business of Fashion's Imran Amed Spotlights the Latest in India's Style Capital
Digital entrepreneur Imran Amed traveled to India with NOWNESS photographer Philip Sinden to Mumbai during Lakmé Fashion Week, unearthing first-rate designers, new stores and other attractions for aesthetes. Amed's Business of Fashion, which decodes luxury takeovers and champions rising talent, has become an indispensable resource for the
multi-billion-dollar industry. The London-based blogger was born in Calgary, but retains close cultural ties to India, tracing his family tree back to Mumbai, a place whose modern development captivates. "Instead of trying to compete in the over-saturated international arena, the city's designers are focused on the burgeoning market at home, which is showing growing signs of consumerism and interest in fashion," he says. "With each visit there is so much more to discover, and as always, my local friends introduced me to the best new Bombay experience." His diary below.
Le Mill is the most ambitious lifestyle store to ever hit Mumbai. Co-founded by Cecilia Morelli Parikh, Julie Leymarie and Aurelie de Limelette, three European expats with experience at Bergdorf Goodman, L'Oréal and Hermès, respectively, the 15,000- square-foot former cotton mill caters to modern sensibilities with bold statement jewelry, exclusive capsule collections by Indian designers, specially designed textiles and a fresh flower shop. 17-25 Nandlal Jani Road, next to new railway bridge, Wadi Bunder, Mumbai 400 009; www.lemill.in
Atsu Sekhose has been described as India's answer to Halston. His summer/resort 2011 collection features long, pared-back silk dresses and jumpsuits in candy pink, peach and yellow.
Sabyasachi's bejewelled saris and intricately embroidered sherwanis are the sine qua non of the ultimate Indian wedding. His new Mumbai store in Kala Ghoda is furnished with personal items from the designer's own archive, including antique clocks and heirloom photographs, and filled with the same rich colors you'd find in an Indian meal: deep greens, golds and reds. 52 V B Gandhi Marg, Kala Ghoda, Fort, Mumbai 400 001; www.sabyasachi.com
Farida Hoosenally has been collecting and restoring antique furniture for over 30 years. Her 30,000-square-foot Prabhadevi workshop is piled to the rafters with intricately inlaid mirrors and tables, high-backed rosewood chairs and ornate bed frames. It's the kind of place that only exists in Mumbai. 522, Sayani Road, Prabhadevi, Mumbai 400 025
Perched atop the 34-story Four Seasons Hotel, the Aer Lounge has become the place to observe Mumbai's urban transformation, including the twin Imperial towers, the tallest buildings in India. The futuristic decor incorporates a Love Bench designed by Ross Lovegrove. This is where people from across the city come to snack on midnight mezze with a champagne cocktail. Four Seasons Hotel, 114, Dr E Moses Road, Worli, Mumbai 400 045; www.fourseasons.com/mumbai/dining/aer/
The Pali Village Café is the kind of restaurant you might find on Manhattan's Lower East Side, but without the hipster crowd. Set in a converted three-story house in Bandra and owned by the former pastry chef at London's Michelin-starred Amaya restaurant, it has a warm and cozy vibe. The signature dish is pan-seared Cambodian sea bass.

Four southern West Virginia
counties could do a lot with $1 million.
Mercer County
Commission President Mike Vinciguerra told lawmakers that kind of money would
go a long way toward getting water and sewage for everyone in his county.
Sen. Truman Chafin, D-Mingo, proposed a way to disburse a
portion of West Virginia Turnpike toll funds to the four counties it's in, but
that idea didn't go far in the legislative session last year.
It was pushed to a resolution for lawmakers to study in the
interim, between sessions, and was discussed in a July 23 meeting, where Chafin
said he'd already paid a few hundred dollars this year in Turnpike tolls.
He called the tolls a "real problem," and an "economic
deterrent," saying his suggestion of deferring $1 million for each of the four
counties "wouldn't hurt the books much at all."
Jennifer Sayre, Kanawha
County manager for the Kanawha
County Commission, said the county would like Turnpike funds for emergency
service needs since 28 of the Turnpike's 88 miles are in Kanawha
Sayre said Kanawha County Metro 911 had dispatched 192
accidents along the Turnpike in the past 12 months, so the money could go toward
equipment and resources for those emergency responders.
Fayette County Commission President Matthew Wender told
lawmakers his commission supports the proposal that would allocate a portion of
Turnpike revenue to the four counties. He said the commission fully supports
Tamarack, but when it opened in 1995, any Turnpike funds that had been
allocated for economic development in the counties "virtually ceased."
"While the tolls have risen, participation in economic
development has disappeared," Wender said. "Our southern counties have
increasing financial challenges with declining coal severance revenues,
increasing regional jail costs, removal of dilapidated structures, rampant
substance abuse and overall increases in local government, all of which further
challenge local efforts to diversify the local economy."
Judy Radford of the New River Gorge Regional Development
Authority spoke on behalf of Raleigh County.
She told lawmakers business parks have been developed in the area, but there
are infrastructure needs along with a timing issue.
"If we could get funds we could apply to those projects, we
would be more ready for projects when they come."
Radford also told lawmakers the Summit Bechtel Reserve is
bringing community leaders to their backyard.
"We want to send a message to people that we're trying to
attract industry," she said. "If our community is dirty or looks dirty, it
sends a negative message."
Greg Barr, general manager of the West Virginia Parkways
Authority, provided a lot of Turnpike history during the meeting. He said when
he started working for the authority in its accounting department in 1989, old
bonds created in the 1950s were still outstanding.
"I applaud all of you for doing some proactive and creative
thinking about what the formula should be when the bonds are paid off in 2019,"
Barr said.
He said through the years he's seen $83 million in Turnpike
funds spent on Corridor L in Raleigh
and Fayette County
and other money go toward better roads in Mercer
County and the new Chelyan
Bridge in Kanawha
Barr explained that bond covenants and the agreement with
the Federal Highways Administration tightly restrict how toll revenues can be
spent – on debt service, operation and maintenance of the Turnpike.
"I say all this because there are creative minds in this
room," Barr said. "Perhaps sitting the right people down at the table, there's
a way around some of the covenants and trust indenture.
"May of 2019 is only six years away, and we've been at this

GREEN BAY (AP) -- Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Tuesday that wide receiver Jordy Nelson will miss the rest of training camp after undergoing a procedure on one of his knees.
The Packers are hopeful he will be ready for the Sept. 8 regular-season opener at San Francisco. Nelson had not practiced since Thursday, missing Friday night's practice and Saturday's scrimmage.
Left tackle Bryan Bulaga also suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament Saturday. Randall Cobb, the leading receiver last year, has a biceps injury. Cornerback Tramon Williams has been sidelined for more than a week with a bone bruise in his knee, and cornerback Casey Hayward hasn't practiced because of a hamstring injury.
DuJuan Harris, the starting running back at the end of last season, has yet to practice because of a knee injury.
