We are seeing it more and more: black Americans decrying other blacks for throwing the race card.
Here is a great and encouraging video of Congressman elect Allen West talking about the issue with Juan Williams on Fox News.

Interview with Maggie Gyllenhaal, Plus Adam & Behati's WeddingBy Gerri Miller
Celebrity news from Hollywood including an interview with Maggie Gyllenhaal, and an update on Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo.Go To Pop Culture
Also see Sample Candlelighting Ceremony by Rabbi Peter Schweitzer.
We now mark our celebration with a candle-lighting ceremony. By assigning symbolic values to each candle, we recall the themes of the bar/bat mitzvah service.
The modern ritual also reminds us that our ceremonies and observances are not fixed in stone, but that Judaism is evolving. Innovation is not only possible, it is welcome.
The student calls up his/her relatives and/or friends to light the candles on the cake (or in some synagogues, a candelabrum). (See Sample Candlelighting Ceremony.)
The candles are lit.
Congratulations & Mazel Tov!

Some more adventures with Mulligan, my Dungeons and Dragons character, who I decided to name after about a million failed attempts (and do-overs) at "rolling for abilities" (for those of you who aren't giant nerds and actually left the house on Wednesday to go to the beach or to a bar or something, rolling for abilities is something you do when you create a new character. You roll the die to determine what your basic attributes will be. When I did it, I rolled a 2 or less about a billion times in a row).
Mulligan started Wednesday as a beaver, but changed into many different animals over the course of the game:
Our DM (or Dungeon Master, again, for those of you who left the house on Weds) noticed how often Mulligan likes turning into different woodland creatures, and was kind enough to buy me a tube of plastic toy animals that I could use as my game pieces. I decided I would start off using the wolf toy, which is in a somewhat awkward pose with one paw over the other. We decided it was because he is fancy.
We needed to get a little dragon off of the roof, and I suggested I turn into an animal that could fly up there and knock him down. I noticed none of my animals had wings, but one of my teammates pointed out that I have a reindeer, and they definitely know how to fly.
After an especially bloody battle in the town of Winterhaven, we wanted to prove to the townspeople that we were kind, and meant them no harm. We noticed a few of their guards had been injured during the battle, so Mulligan (who had turned into a moose at some point, I can't remember why) decided to use some of his healing power to help them. Unfortunately, I rolled terribly three times in a row. Then this happened.

421 Mary Esther Blvd, Mary Esther, FL 32569
Talked with a manager who was very friendly however he was not knowledgeable about gluten free and was not very convincing about cross contamination. The more questions I asked the more he admitted that there is a chance for spatulas and spoons to touch wheat tortillas and then going back into the dish. Very disappointing but expected from a chain like that. Would not recommend celiacs to dine there!
5961 Sunbury Rd, Westerville, OH 43081
Good bowls. Not my first choice for this type of food (Chipotle's GF menu wins on flavor and freshness), but location is convenient and I've never had a reaction.
5625 Pearl Dr, Evansville, IN 47712
We eat at Hot Head often with my daughter who's a Celiac. She has never had any issues after eating and the staff is always very accommodating. I always order her meal first and have them change gloves. Staff seems knowledgeable about gluten.
1113 Brown St, Dayton, OH 45409
Tried it tonight. Was not very good in my opinion just taste wise. Would much rather go to chipotle or qdoba.
563 South Main Street, Englewood, OH 45458
It's great but all of the meat is gluten free EXCEPT for the chicken. Big bummer there!! :(

Two Brothers Brewing Company- Domaine DuPage French Country Ale: Way Better Than The Tour De France
Again it is another brew from one of our very own local breweries. Two Brothers Brewing Company is just a hop skip & a jump from the TGBOAT headquarters in the western burbs of Chicago. Last Saturday I had the pleasure of attending Two Brothers "For The Love Of Hops" event for the release of Hop Juice, their amazing double IPA. So as I went to the fridge to figure out what beer to choose next and came across a brew that has been in there a while and is one of Two Brother's staple craft beers. I hesitated to try this brew when I first got it, as Wes crowed about how great it was, because it was a French Country Ale and I have to admit, I'm not a fan of the French. That being said, Two Brothers Domaine DuPage French Country Ale is poured and ready.
Two Brothers Brewing Company classifies this craft brew as a French Country Ale and their website describes Domaine DuPage as, "Inspired by the brothers time living in France, this food-friendly ale is deep amber in color, with a toasty and sweet caramel start. It finishes with just enough hops to clean off the palate. Bon Appetit!"
Domain DuPage pours a deep amber color with minimal floating sediment (as website & bottle state) with a small ½" khaki color head and has a strong malty aroma with hints of caramel & spices and is 5.9% ABV.
While I agree with Wes that this is an amazingly good beer, I don't necessarily think it ranks up there with one of the best I have ever had. Two Brothers really has their brews on lock. Aside from their Prairie Path Golden Ale, every single beer I've had has been one of the better brews within that style. Domaine DuPage is no exception, this is a great beer. It starts with a caramel malt sweetness and finishes with the slightest hop bite in the end. Este es una cerveza buena maldita…this is one damn good beer. Thank God you don't have to travel to France to get it or speak French to enjoy it. Aclamaciones!
Consumed: New Belgium Globe Glass
Verdict: Buy A Case

Designer Spotlight: Bjørn Wiinblad
If you're wondering where Jonathan Adler got his inspiration for his Utopia series, or where Tord Boontje got his taste for saturated colors and fanciful flora, look no further than Danish artist and designer Bjørn Wiinblad. This midcentury ceramic artist set up his own studio in 1952, and continued to reproduce his designs through the 1990s.
Much of his work is inspired by the fairy tales of fellow Dane Hans Christian Andersen, who wrote such well-known stories as The Little Mermaid and The Princess and the Pea. Starting in the 1950s, he produced silver, glass, furniture, and ceramic designs for Rosenthal Porzellan AG, and also designed posters, costume and stage designs, tapestries, and textiles for hotels and restaurants across the world. His work is particularly popular in Japan.
To see more images of his work, and to find out whether or not his work is a good investment, read more.
The good news for you? His work is still undervalued, which means that you can snap up some of his finds at reasonable prices (unlike some other midcentury designers' works), and the value is predicted to continue rising. You can find some of his designs on eBay and from other antique dealers, as well as at Unica Home. I love the childlike joy that's evident in his designs, as well as his unique illustrations of people. Are you a fan, or are these a little too fanciful for you?

I don't think anyone has mentioned Zero or The Wake, which are only a few issues in and both really good so far. Saga, Walking Dead, Manhattan Projects are great too. Velvet looks like it is going to be good.
mcauburn's forum posts
I've been looking to buy the absolute edition of Kingdom Come, but I've read that the most recent printing from last year had a page with dialogue missing. Does anyone know if that affected all of that print run, especially in the UK?
I actually read all of Minimum Carnage and can't remember that at all. Probably because it was rubbish.
Really enjoying this series, but one thing is really annoying me; how does Kletus Cassady have his legs back? I know he has robot legs but these look like normal legs. It's a tiny point but it seems like a very obvious mistake to make.
Has anyone got any recommendations for good books about comics? I have already read Marvel The Untold Story and Supergods and I'm going to read the 10 Cent Plague, but has anyone else ready anything good?
This was a great first issue, however my only problem was with Chameleon. I'm pretty sure Spider-Man captured him in Avenging Spider-Man 21 and he was being held by SHIELD before that so continuity wise it his appearance doesn't really work..
Julia Carpenter should be changed to this or this. She hasn't been Spider-Woman in years but that is still her main picture.
Not totally sure if this is the right board for this, but I am moving house soon and I need to buy a bookcase that is strong enough to support larger heavy books, like Absolutes and omnibuses, but I'm not sure where to look. I've looked at Ikea but I've heard some of their bookcases sag with too much weight on them. Has anyone good any recommendations for cheap but large and study bookcases? I am in the UK as well.
Does anybody here own the Back in Black oversized hardcover? I've been looking on the internet to see which issues it collects and some say there is one hardcover that collects every issue (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0785129049/ref=s9_simh_gw_p14_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0WW0F0RS13E4N7QEYFVE&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=358549767&pf_rd_i=468294) but some say that it is split between 2 hardcovers (http://www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&products_id=39842). Is the solicitation just wrong, or is there really one hardcover that collects every issue?
Thanks for all the help, haven't been to Tynemouth or Quayside markets in ages so I think I'll pop down some time.

The Trouble with Poetry: And Other Poemsby Billy Collins
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Playfulness, spare elegance, and wit epitomize the poetry of Billy Collins. With his distinct voice and accessible language, America's two-term Poet Laureate has opened the door to poetry for countless people for whom it might otherwise remain closed.
Like the present book's title, Collins's poems are filled with mischief, humor, and irony, "Poetry speaks to all people, it is said, but here I would like to address / only those in my own time zone"–but also with quiet observation, intense wonder, and a reverence for the everyday: "The birds are in their trees, / the toast is in the toaster, / and the poets are at their windows. / They are at their windows in every section of the tangerine of earth–the Chinese poets looking up at the moon, / the American poets gazing out / at the pink and blue ribbons of sunrise."
Through simple language, Collins shows that good poetry doesn't have to be obscure or incomprehensible, qualities that are perhaps the real trouble with most "serious" poetry: "By now, it should go without saying / that what the oven is to the baker / and the berry-stained blouse to the drycleaner / so the window is to the poet."
In this dazzling new collection, his first in three years, Collins explores boyhood, jazz, love, the passage of time, and, of course, writing–themes familiar to Collins's fans but made new here. Gorgeous, funny, and deeply empathetic, Billy Collins's poetry is a window through which we see our lives as if for the first time.
An all-new collection of poetry by America's former Poet Laureate features witty, insightful, and simple poems dealing with the themes of jazz, the passage of time, love, boyhood, and writing. 50,000 first printing.
Playfulness, spare elegance, and wit epitomize the poetry of Billy Collins. With his distinct voice and accessible language, America's two-term Poet Laureate has opened the door to poetry for countless people for whom it might otherwise remain closed.

Students will explore first-hand the celebrated monuments and masterpieces of the Minoan, Mycenaean and Greek civilizations, and study the changes from palatial Bronze Age society to Greek city-state democracy. As students acquaint themselves with the most influential landmarks in Greek art and architecture, they will take a critical and reflective look at their discoveries and re-evaluate the fundamental bases of Greek archaeology.
In addition to the Acropolis, Acropolis Museum, Ancient Agora, National Archaeological Museum, and Theatre of Dionysus, sites in Attica will include the Temple of Apollo at Sounion and the Sanctuary of Artemis at Brauron. A multi-day study-travel excursion to Crete will visit the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, the Minoan palaces of Knossos, Phaistos, and Mallia, and the sites of Archanes, Fourni, Vatypetro, Myrtos, Pyrgos, Gournia, and Lato. The study-travel excursion through the Peloponnese will include the sites of Mycenae, Epidaurus, Lerna, Tiryns, Sparta, Mystra, and Olympia before culminating with a visit to the central mainland site of Delphi.
Participants are required to prepare for the course by completing some reading assignments in advance. Three essays are required, one on June 24 and the other two on July 24, 2014.
This course requires a minimum enrollment of 15, with a maximum enrollment of 24.
CYA reserves the right to cancel any course that fails to achieve minimum enrollment by April 1, 2014. Students are advised not to purchase non-refundable tickets before early April.
Summer CYA courses are the equivalent of a regular one semester course at CYA. A detailed syllabus outlining the contact hours, reading and assesment is available upon request.
Course Fee: $3,600
Please note:
Never before has a course had such an impact on me. In just a few short weeks, the College Year in Athens program opened up the past, shared Greece's incredible history, and combined learning with fun to not only broaden my horizons but make a lasting difference in the way I see the world...Touring these sites would not have been the same without the expertise and experience of Professor Diamant—an instructor who has dedicated his life to the study of these ancient people.Ioan Bolohan -- Summer 2013. Majoring in Business Administration and Political Science at UNC Chapel Hill
The course, under the expert guidance of Dr. Steven Diamant, covered more ground than I expected, both literally and figuratively... Every part of our trip - from Crete to Delphi to the Peloponnese - was carefully and thoughtfully planned by CYA. ...so we never had to worry about the logistical aspects of traveling. This made the course that much more enjoyable, as we could truly focus on our studies...(and) the course was exactly what I had hoped it to be: rigorous and challenging.

Jen Vennon on Huge, 13d/8b, Bauhaus, Rifle, CO
Björn Pohl - UKC, Sep 2011
© David Clifford
Rifle, Colorado local, Jen Vennon, has made the first female ascent of Stockboy's revenge, 5.14b/c (or 8c/+ in our money).
The route was put up by Andy Reather in 2005 and given 14c/8c+. Over the years, it has seen quite a few repeats, some new beta have been found, and the grade now seems to have settled closer to the 14b/8c mark.
This was Jen's hardest ascent to date, her previously hardest being The 7 PM show, 14a/8b+, also at Rifle. Watch the video.

Archive for Subway Security
Subway-surface air flow tests begin todayPosted by: | Comments
In an effort to assess the way air flows between the subway and the surface, the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory and the NYPD launched the first day of the Subway-Surface Air Flow Exchange today. The tests involve air sampling throughout the city's subway system and the release and tracking of harmless gases called perfluorocarbons. The gases were dispersed this morning during the rush hour commute, and the air sampling is expected to wrap by 3 p.m. today.
The S-SAFE study has been funded through a Department of Homeland Security grant and is designed to better prepare the city for a potential gas attack. "The NYPD works for the best but plans for the worst when it comes to potentially catastrophic attacks such as ones employing radiological contaminants or weaponized anthrax," Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly said in a statement about the program. "This field study with Brookhaven's outstanding expertise will help prepare and safeguard the city's population in the event of an actual attack."
According to the MTA, this study is the largest one focused ever urban airflow ever conducted and will help researchers "better understand the risks posed by airborne contaminants." In the past, researchers have determined that air quality is ostensibly the same below ground as it is above, but the way air is dispersed throughout the city — through the push and pull of trains — has yet to be studied. I doubt the S-SAFE results will be made public, but the findings would make for an interesting look at how air or gases from the Rockaways could reach Times Square in an hour.
Reminder: Problem Solves on transit security tomorrowPosted by: | Comments
My long-standing series at the Transit Museum continues tomorrow, Wednesday, June 5, and this time, I'll be talking transit security with Joseph Nugent, the liaison between New York City Transit and the New York Police Department. In the aftermath of the Boston bombings, Nugent and I will be discussing the extensive security measures — some visible, some not — in place to protect transit riders in New York. It's not an easy task as the system is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and unmanned access points exist throughout the five boroughs.
Some background on my guest: Nugent is the interagency liaison between the New York Police Department and New York City Transit. He began his career as an officer with the NYC Transit Police Department in 1985, and was promoted to sergeant in 1993. In 2002, he became a lieutenant with the NYPD, retiring in July 2005. Before starting in his current position, he worked as an NYCT investigator in employee misconduct and workplace violence, and later as counterterrorism liaison. He received a B.S. in Business Management from St. Francis College in 2000, and a Masters in Public Administration from Marist College in 2009.
As always, Problem Solvers takes place at the Transit Museum in Downtown Brooklyn, and the program starts at 6:30 p.m. with doors at 6. Admission is free, but the Museum asks that you kindly RSVP right here. See you then.

Link: The anxiety of a subway groping attackPosted by: | Comments
As part of its ongoing look at anxiety and the way we live, The New York Times has published a piece by Kimberly Matus about being a subway groping victim, and it is a must-read for New Yorkers. While the focus on underground crime tends to coalesce around reported thefts of electronics and handheld devices, groping is a far bigger concern for many law enforcement officials as these crimes are rampant and often go unreported.
Matus, in her piece, discusses her experiences on a very crowded train, how undercover officers spotted the groping and were able to arrest the perp and how the incident left her fearful of future subway rides. It's not always as clean and simple as that. From those who flash women in the subways to lewd comments to inappropriate touching, this behavior is rampant and unacceptable. It can lead to concerns over personal safety and fears over riding the subway. Absent an aggressive targeted campaign of enforcement efforts, the subways remain a hotbed for these types of sexual assaults. [The New York Times]
Link: Tracking a stolen iPhone on the 7 trainPosted by: | Comments
Let's take a familiar conceit from The French Connection and revise it for the 21st Century: What if Jimmy Doyle's foil had a stolen iPhone? That is the premise of this New York Times Crime Scene article in which one Queens woman goes from unlucky to lucky thanks to Apple's "Find My iPhone" app.
As Michael Wilson relates, a woman, like so many New Yorkers these days, found her phone unceremoniously snatched from her hands while walking in Queens. When she flagged down a cop and called up her phone's location, the blue dot revealed a perp on 7 train crossing the borough above. Officers tried to spot the thief but finally had to ask Transit to halt the train. A well-timed phone call revealed the stolen phone, and victim and technology were soon reunited.
This tale at least has a happy ending, but most of these stories do not. Thefts of devices, especially from subway cars, has pushed crime totals up over the last few years, and most pick-pockets aren't quite so foolish as to leave that phone turned on. So just think of this as a modern-day chase beneath the city's looming elevated trains but without so much of the dramatic tension.
The incompatibility of seeing something and saying somethingPosted by: | Comments
For the better part of a decade, the MTA has been throwing a slogan at its riders. "If you see something, say something," screams print ads, TV commercials, in-system announcements, placards, posters and everything else in between. The trademarked phrase has been leased out to transit agencies around the world and has become a hallmark of subway systems everywhere. The only problem is that you can't anything when you see something because there's no one around to listen.
Last Monday, as I was journeying back from the Upper West Side to Brooklyn, I got on board the IRT at the southern end of the 96th St. entrance. As the stop between 93rd and 94th on Broadway is just a few blocks from my parents' place, I've been using that station my entire life. Lately, though, it's changed as the booth is no longer staffed 24 hours a day. The lone station attendant sits outside of the fare control area in the new headhouse at 96th St.
When I reached the turnstiles, a pair of guys were hanging out around the entrances. These guys were swipe sellers. They had jammed the turnstiles with folded-up Metrocards, and I guess were trying to sell unsuspecting riders a swipe. They weren't particularly good at their scheme as they failed to engage two people struggling to make heads or tails of the Metrocard Vending Machines and didn't react when I pulled out one of cards to swipe through. Still, I figured I would tell someone if I could find anyone.
As I waited for the train to show up, I walked the entire length of the platform and hopped up the stairs at the north end of the station. I couldn't catch the booth attendant's eye and found no other MTA employee or NYPD officer around. I saw something; I wanted to say something; and I couldn't. The MTA's own staffing decisions and budget cuts had, for better or worse, rendered their slogan incompatible with the reality of the situation. Eventually, my train arrived, and I left to head back home.
It seems I'm not the only one wondering if the MTA's ubiquitous ad campaign has reached its end. In this week's New York Magazine, Dwyer Gunn argues against the anti-terrorism slogan. Noting that the campaign hasn't really netted anyone terrorists and that New Yorkers are immune to weird goings-on underground, Gunn believes that the signs themselves posted in token booths block station agents' views of their realm. While some minor criminals have been caught, tips to the MTA's own hotline are relatively sparse, and the constant announcements concerning rider awareness are lost in the noise shuffle.
Gunn's critique though is missing what I've mentioned as the biggest problem: There's no one to tell. Unless one sees a ticking bomb, how many people are going to try to find that one employee somewhere? What if that one employee is across the street with no free transfer available as is the case at, say, Bergen St. along the IND Culver Line? Train arrives, person leaves, threat of whatever level goes unreported.
Perhaps, though, the MTA is onto something. After a successful pilot, Transit announced on Friday afternoon that the Help Point intercoms will be rolled out to 102 stations as part of the current five-year capital plan. The MTA had initially announced a system-wide rollout earlier this March. With two buttons — one for emergencies and one for contact with the station booth — the blue-light intercoms resemble those found on college campuses across the country.
"The Help Points are, figuratively speaking, light years ahead of the current units that customers see in subway stations," NYC Transit President Thomas F. Prendergast said. "They will be available to access both information and assistance during emergencies. When coupled with countdown clocks, they add up to the most significant customer communications improvements to be installed in the station environment in a generation."
Eventually, these intercoms will be everywhere, but for now, it's a start. At the least, those of us looking to report something — a suspicious bag, shady characters attempting to scam or intimidate other rides, a crime in progress — won't be left empty-handed. As long as the person on the other end of the line is willing to act and move quickly, saying something after seeing something might not seem as futile as it does today.
The challenges of securing the NYC transit systemPosted by: | Comments
A few weeks ago in early April, New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli released his eighth progress report on the state of the MTA's capital security program. For a variety of reasons not related to the content of the report, I didn't have a chance then to cover it then, but it's worth our attention. As DiNapoli has noted in the past, thanks in part to a legal spat with a contractor and in part to ambitious expectations, the MTA has simply been unable to meet its schedule for implementation.
DiNapoli's latest missive, available here as a PDF, sheds little light on what the MTA is doing. The bulk of that information has been omitted for security reasons. But the work accomplished has not moved along briskly. The so-called Phase 1 projects wrapped in February with the notable exception of the electronic security program, and that program is two years late and significantly over budget.
The original security program was a part of the 2000-2004 Capital Plan, submitted in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. At the time, the MTA expected to spend $591 million on a variety of security improvements targeting the most vulnerable and high-trafficked areas. Spending has ballooned to $882 million, and as we approach the 11th anniversary of the attacks, the electronic monitoring project, seemingly the centerpiece of Phase 1, is not expected to be ready until June 2014. By itself, it will cost $516 million, nearly double the original projection.
Electronic monitoring is fairly self-explanatory. The MTA plans to install 3000 cameras and 1400 access-control devices that are to be monitore at six area command centers and one central command center. Once this monitoring system is up and running, though, the challenges do not stop. As DiNapoli said, "Once installed, maintaining these devices in the mass transit environment will be an ongoing challenge."
The challenges causing this delay are not entirely surprising. Four various agencies are trying to work in concert to bring 21st century equipment into a late-19th/early 20th century system. Electronics storage rooms frequently overheat; fiber optics networks degrade rapidly; and more facilities have been required. As DiNapoli notes, "Nearly half of the increased cost is due to the inclusion of additional facilities ($110 million), with most of the balance due to unplanned costs associated with facilities to house the command and control centers ($51 million) and the upgrading and repair of computer networks ($33 million)."
Meanwhile, the MTA and Lockheed Martin are fighting over the original contract. Lockheed claims the MTA did not provide needed access while the MTA has filed a counter-suit alleging various breaches of contract. The suits were filed three years ago, and the parties are still arguing.
While DiNapoli's report doesn't touch upon the ultimate issue, it's worth a brief digression: Is this spending worth it? The New York City subways have been targeted in failed terrorist attacks. Thanks to better monitoring of terrorist threats, the feds and the NYPD have been able to head off attacks before they reach critical stages. Yet, our system remains a vulnerable target whether we like to dwell on that or not. To combat that, the MTA must spend on security, and it must spend on maintaining the security system for the foreseeable future. That's not a cheap proposition, and I'm sure there's a right or good answer here.
DiNapoli, though, tried to find some optimism. The MTA will be deferring six security projects to do the ever-popular lack of funding, but the authority has made some strides. "While the MTA's capital security program has taken far longer and cost more than planned to complete, the regional transit system is more secure and the public better protected today," DiNapoli said. "Further security improvements are needed and finding the necessary resources must be a priority for the MTA."
Subway grand larceny figures up nearly 40 percentPosted by: | Comments
The NYPD has released subway crime figures for the first two months of the year, and yet again, grand larceny numbers are up markedly. In February, the police received 126 grand larceny reports — up by 35 over February 2011 — and the year-to-date numbers show a similar increase. Grand larcenies are up 39 percent, and robberies are up 47 percent.
The numbers, of course, are alarming, but we know what's fueling these increases: device thefts. Unsuspecting straphangers are too busy playing Angry Birds to notice their vulnerability. Thus, grab-and-go larcenies become more common. According to officers I've spoken with, iPads have quickly become the most popular devices since they're worth the most, and iPhones are a constant target as well. Even as the subways are significantly safer now than they've been in years, we should still remain aware of our surroundings, as one of those endlessly annoying subway announcements makes perfectly clear.
Help Point pilot set for system-wide rolloutPosted by: | Comments
As we learned yesterday that the MTA wants to introduce its "On The Go" screens to a wider audience, today we find out that another pilot program may get the green light. The MTA's blue-light Help Point intercom system has been tabbed for a system-wide rollout, according to a New York 1 report.
The Help Point system, designed by Antenna Design back in 2005, made its debut in early 2011. The intercoms, similar to devices found on college campuses around the country, connect straphangers with an MTA information center or an emergency line, as the case may be. For the past year, they have been in place at 23rd St. and the Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall stop along the Lexington Ave. Line.
Tina Redwine has more on a system-wide expansion:
Metropolitan Transportation Authority officials say help for subway riders is on track to be just a push button away, with the Help Point Intercom. The MTA installed the machines at a couple of stations last April in a pilot program and now the agency will install one on every platform at every subway station citywide…
"It's going to make people feel more safe," said a rider. "Some people try to rob people's stuff and now all you need is a button and the cops will be here to help you," said another.
The MTA has had so-called "customer assistance intercoms" underground for years, but how well they assist is hard to say. The MTA says the new intercoms will be wireless, with a blue beacon to show where they are. They will be built camera-ready, but the MTA says it would be too expensive to put cameras in them for now.
Last year, I reported that the two-station pilot, which included intercoms every 150 feet, cost the MTA $300,000. A similar system-wide deployment would have cost $139,800,000, but the MTA, as NY1 notes, will place just one device on every platform instead of four or five. That will clearly reduce the capital expenses for this project.
In a way, then, these devices provide an on-platform solution for customer safety. As long as someone is at the other end of the intercom, passengers can summon help at the push of a button. Seems like a good idea to me.
Pondering the late, great token boothsPosted by: | Comments
For the past few years, the MTA has waged if not a war then an assault on station booths. The once-ubiquitous boxy structures that were the home to token agents and then the jack-of-all/no-trades station booths have been axed along with the employees who used to work in them. Even though the MTA's finances may some day recover, the station booths have been physically removed from many stations, and only those that remain will be staffed.
When the MTA first announced the decision to axe station employees and their booths, I viewed it as one that would challenge perception rather than impact reality. The tangible impact would come in the arena of fare-jumping as once-reluctant hoppers would climb off the turnstiles with impunity. The overwhelmingly vast majority of people would continue to pay.
The perception of safety though presented a real concern. Although station agents are not authorized to stop crimes and in fact are instructed not to leave their booths, they provide another set of eyes and a lifeline to a telephone that can be used to summon the authorities. Although station agents have made headlines for falling asleep as their posts, if anything, the presence of a station agent can be comforting to someone not so keen on a late-night subway ride, and today, those security blankets are dwindling.
Last week, Pete Donohue took the MTA to task for its whole-scale eliminate of station agents. Instead of Occupy Wall St., an amorphous protest against everything and nothing, New Yorkers, he wrote, should be protesting the MTA's decision to remove personnel from the subway system. "I always feel safer when I see someone in the box," he said, "particularly late at night when there are fewer riders around."
Donohue reimagines the role of the station agent:
Occupy the Booth would protest the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's staff reductions in subway stations and demand more uniformed MTA personnel to help straphangers and tourists. If the job of assisting riders leaves these workers with extra time, have them occasionally pick up a broom and tidy the place, or maybe change a light bulb or shoo away the rats.
The MTA shuttered booths to cut expenses and close budget gaps. The pink-slipped clerks were directed to report to a former public school in Brooklyn that the MTA had taken over for use as a training facility. There, they had to turn in their uniforms, keys and badges. It was a sad parade of civil servants, many of them single mothers, carrying their transit gear in black plastic garbage bags. In the past, when senior executives were shown the door, they received full salary for one year as severance. The clerks got a MetroCard.
The vacant booths remained in place. Police made use of a few: They covered the glass with newspaper on the inside and cut peep holes to spy on swiper scammers at nearby turnstiles, hoping to catch them in the act. I'm not so sure it was terribly effective. It was a swiper who told me about the strategy in a Bronx station when I wondered about the newsprint curtains. The cubicle must have been empty. Two teen-agers with backpacks hopped the turnstile and no police emerged. The booths mostly served as big boxy reminders that you're paying more for less. Then they started disappearing.
I never shed too many tears over the departure of the station agents. They were useful a few times a day for certain riders unfamiliar with the city and the system, and they're still nominally in place in at least one booth in every station. Yet, if the MTA and its unions had reconstructed the role of the agent to take ownership of his or her station, to be a face, to take a broom and sweep up now and then, perhaps the authority wouldn't have been so quick to remove the station booths themselves forever, thus lending an air of permanence to the whole thing.
Of course, the unions would be rightly concerned with employee safety, and with rising assault numbers, those concerns would likely be justified. But instead, the MTA has effectively cut off its station booth nose to spite its face. These booths aren't coming back any time soon, and no occupation, for better or worse, would have much of an effect on them.

Hidden Hills at Oakdale West Resident
We have been very happy with our apartment and living at Hidden Hills. There has been multiple changes in empl Read Moreoyees in the management office so we have had to communicate with different people which at times has been a struggle. We were also told that soon after we moved in the new fitness center would be completed and yet at this time, it is still under construction. However, we are looking forward to that being finished.

There are some issues with the building, but maintenance is great and they make a good effort!

Joseph's School, Nanda Nagar has its beginning on 2nd July
2000, as an answer to impart quality education in an area mostly
inhabited by workers.
St. Joseph's School belongs to the Catholic Diocese of
Indore, a
Registered Religious Society, under the management of the
Bishop of Indore, which runs a number of reputed schools such
as St. Paul H.S. School, Indore, Rajeshwar Vidhyalaya, Mhow,
Holy Trinity School, Dewas.
The growth of St. Joseph's School, Nanda Nagar and its finding a
place of
its own among the premier educational institution of the
city is
the result of able administration and the competent staff
The school never compromises on quality. "Excellence"
is the
catch word for the school. The holistic growth of a student
in all
spheres is our aim. Therefore we offer a wide spectrum of
activities to the students.
Ever since its plunge, the school has maintained its quality. The
is esteemed by all in its mission of imparting quality
education and thereby (molding the lives of) making a mark in
of students' lives.
school has grown over the years by leaps and bounds. The spacious
class rooms and the peaceful atmosphere in the campus,
is a
perfect scenario for learning.
St. Joseph's stands as a jewel in the crown of the city. The school, which had been under the state board from its beginning got affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, Delhi in 2007.
The Emblem & Motto
The specialty of a lit lamp is that it gives light to everyone who comes. St. Joseph's School is like a lamp lit on a mountain top, leading everyone to light of knowledge by dispelling the darkness of ignorance values.
The Bible begins with the book called Genesis where it is written:
"Then God said, Let there be light.' And there was light." God is light and there is no darkness in him. God is the source of light. Writing about Jesus, St. John says:"The true light which enlightens everyone was coming into the world". Jesus Himself says, "You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid So "LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE".
Each person becomes a light to the world If he obtains right knowledge and dispels the darkness of ignorance. The process of learning from childhood to adult age, allow one to remove darkness from one's life and come into the light, to become gradually an enlightened person. St. Joseph's School will begin process of learning for little children in KG and accompany them to higher classes: So we pray with our ancient sage: LORD, LEAD ME FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT.
1. Integral development of the child, impacting the noble values of physical, social, intellectual, moral and iritual growth adjusted to each child's apacity and speed to absorb and integrate them.
2. Impacting the traditional academic skills of reading, Writing and Arithmetic and leading the child to the knowledge of Arts, Science, Commerce and all other areas of modern education within our limits.
3. Inspiring the child to have a spirit love and respect for all,for God and for our country.
4. Formation of the character, mind and heart of the child with attitudes needed for a balanced, confident,mature outgoing and loving personality, living in harmony with nature and with all the citizens of the country to develop a strong India and new world.
Our Vision 'Soar High'
collaboration with our community and parents, the vision of St. Joseph's School is to provide all students with an outstanding education that motivates them to reach their full potential and
We are
committed to assure learning experiences that will assist our students to achieve their greatest potential to adapt and adjust to a diverse and ever changing society.

White KnightingTalk3
1,030pages on
this wiki
this wiki
White Knighting is an attempt at being a feminist ally that assumes that men are better feminists than women are.
Examples of White Knighting might include:
- re-stating a woman's feminist arguments so as to improve them, on the assumption that you can express them more clearly and objectively
- defending a woman in an argument, cutting off her own defence of herself
- concern trolling about the tone of feminist expression or otherwise assuming that feminism is in dire need of a man's input
- misintepreting a woman's criticisms against structural oppression as low self-esteem or low self-confidence, and engaging in excessive flattery to try and boost it
Essentially, the problem is an ally's assumption that one is the best, most effective, feminist present.
As a criticism of all allies Edit
Sometimes the term "white knighting" is used by anti-feminists to criticise any feminist action from a man. Feminists don't ask that men be silent on feminist questions, they simply ask that men not behave as if they invented or perfected feminism.
