Jockey Quotes
JULIEN LEPAROUX, DHAAMER, Winner: "There was a lot of pressure before this race. All the family is here. But he's a nice horse and won easily today. I couldn't have asked for a better present for my birthday (Leparoux turned 29 today). In a four-horse field, everything went pretty much as planned. We knew there was not going to be pace. We thought before the race (Juniper Pass) was the one to beat. I just followed that one and when I asked him, he came very nice for me. He was just much the best today.
Trainer Quotes
MIKE MITCHELL, DHAAMER, Winner: "He might have one start at Del Mar, we'll just have to figure out which one. That's kind of in our focus but we want to have a Breeders' Cup Marathon horse on the dirt. He just barely got beat in the (Grade III) Tokyo City (in his U.S. debut March 24). Julien (Leparoux) has such a great set of hands. Way before he met my daughter I was riding him on horses. I've always thought he was a great rider."
On his health: "Getting stronger. A few more treatments and then I'm good to go. Everything has gone really well. Hopefully I'll be at Del Mar midway through. I'm going to do what the doctors tell me, but that's my plan."

Why Cable TV in Poolville, TX
There are so many reasons why we here at CableTV.com appreciate cable service. Cable offers hundreds of HD channels that won't break up in bad weather and are available whenever you want. It offers everything from movies and TV shows, to On Demand entertainment. And with most providers you get all your local channels for free. Because it requires less equipment than satellite, Cable TV is easier to install and better value. Bundling it with high-speed internet could save you up to $400 a year. Plus cable is:
Cable TV offersmore HD choices
Snow may mess up satellite, but itdoesn't faze cable
Cable can beinstalled virtually anywhere
Watching Cable TV in Poolville
If you thirst for cable TV knowledge, we can help. CableTV.com has cold-filtered cable data on tap and ready for consumption. Try this (it's on the house): almost everyone, or 97% of Americans, watches television as it is aired and roughly 33% of those TV viewers have at least four televisions in their homes. Upwards of 50% of people also stream video content online. Among those with cable TV, almost three-fourths bundle their service with high-speed Internet. Cable's ubiquitous national presence also helps explain how DVRs account for about 7% of America's total TV viewing.
All those stats mean that if you don't own at least one TV for every room in your house, chances are your neighbor to the left or right of you does. It also means that almost everyone you meet today will watch a TV tonight, and 57% of them will use either their DVR or their Internet to do so.
Why Choose Cable Internet in Poolville
Cable providers have so much more to offer than TV. That is why so many Poolville residents bundle cable services. Cable Internet is faster than most DSL services, providing downstream speeds 25%-100% faster than the national average. People who choose cable bundles also save money, roughly $400 every year they bundle TV and Internet. Both are very good explanations why cable Internet subscribers represent 32% of households, and how broadband penetration in Texas grew to 67% by 2010. Enter your zip code to find out more about cable Internet, bundles and providers in Poolville.

It has a 12MP sensor and a 28-112mm (equivalent) zoom lens. I bought one a couple of months ago, and it is a first class camera. Check it out, at £79.95 it is a bargain.

I have seen these lights on other sites for a much higher cost. These lights look very expensive and give great light to a bathroom with no other light source. People who see them admire them immediately.
I could not believe how nice these look when installed. I bought two of them for a double sink installation, and I am thrilled with them! They are very unusual and have really transformed my space into a glamourous look for so little money! My only warning is that putting on the crystals is very labor intensive, so if you are having a paid electrician do the installation, I would suggest putting the crystals on yourself in advance of the installation. They need to be put on before being installed, not after. Otherwise, you will be paying the electrician probably an extra hour's work for him to do it. It is not hard to do; it just takes awhile. Also, they take one small base chandelier type bulb for each "square". I am a former interior decorator, and I highly recommend these. You will love them!
These lights ended a long drama for me; thanks GODDNESS! I have brass & chrome fixtures in my bath, which are ok, not crazy about them, but did not want to spend boocoo *** redoing all the fixtures when at the end of it, I loathed the brass & chrome Hollywood bar vanity light the contractor put in my new build home. My shower trim was chrome, so I gave in and decided on chrome...blah. Then I found these fixtures and it solved my problems!!!! SO many vanity lights have those tulip shaped glass shades...YUK! White, cream, ivory...more blah. These fixtures solve the problem because crystal has no color, but who needs color with these shiny babies! You don't have to worry about counter top color with light shades and metal tomes after I decided on chrome. Price was AWSEOME too on OS. After I got these these, they look SO much better in person than on website. I bought 2 of these and just sat down with a movie and strung the crystals. Took about 1.5 hours, but so worth it. I also bought the Otis designs flush mount 4 light for my water closet and ordered item # 11738310 chrome 3 light chandelier for my master closet. If you think you like these on website, you will love them in person
This looks so gorgeous in my bathroom! So excited - I had seen the same thing on various sites for $300 and $400 and was about to splurge because I knew I wanted this style, but luckily I searched one more day and found it here MUCH cheaper. The other reviews looked promising so I bought it. While it took longer to hang than anticipated because it doesn't tell you you have to attach ALL 80 CRYSTAL bead thingies YOURSELF (not fully pre-assembled) it was WELL WORTH the extra 20 minutes and the money saved to do it. And the light it puts off is just beautiful - I'd swear they were real Swarowski crystals. Highly recommend!
I am thrilled with this fixture. It looks so much more expensive than it was. The directions were very good and I put it up with no problem.
I was looking for a light fixture that everyone else does not have, this was is. very unique...it uses the smaller chandelier lights, so its not a big lighted item for the bathroom, but I have sunlight .elegant fixture
I have 2 of these above my bathroom mirror (double sink). They are gorgeous! I get many complements on my beautiful bathroom. I have these lights, new taupe paint, and nice towels & shower curtain. Everything else is stock white.I wish I had spent as little updating my other bathrooms. This is big bang for the buck!!!
Beautiful! It adds a hint of glamour & flair to our small bathroom, without being "over the top". Daughter & tween granddaughters loved so much, they want one! Usually they HATE what I buy. LOL It was a pain putting all those prisms on individually, but so worth it in the end.
My wife loves bling and this sconce does glitter. She has it in a guest bathroom.
Nice looking and adds a lot to our master bath. A bit complicated to assemble, tedious would be a more apt word. But, well worth the effort.

MAURIZIO RAVALICOpercussion, vocals
A full-time Londoner since 1991, Italian born Maurizio Ravalico studied congas and bata drums in La Havana, Cuba. His solo production reveals an inquisitive spirit and a compelling drive towards new and radical approaches to music. His album "Accommodating Gods" released in 1998 with drummer Davide Giovannini, is still talked about as one of the most important works for percussion music to come out of the UK in the nineties, while more recently (2005), on the "ezzthetic_ep", realised with Ezzthetic, Maurizio explores new possibilities of dialogue between percussion instruments and electronics. Maurizio is now developing a particular interest in free-form musical improvisation and his ongoing collaborations in this field are with the world-class tuba player Oren Marshall and with electronic musician Isambard Khroustaliov. Maurizio has also worked with Jamiroquai, The James Taylor Quartet, Jesus Alemani, Snowboy, Alex Wilson, Tumbaito, Herman Oliveira, Paul McCartney, Paul Young, Dennis Rollins, Kaidi Tatham, Dego McFarland, and he is a regular member of Dele Sosimi's Afrobeat Ensemble and Barak Schmool's Meta Meta.

He has run his own bands, played New York's Blue Note Club and Ronnie Scott's and supported Roy Ayers in 2004. His band Acoustic Ladyland was originally intended, as the name suggests, to be an acoustic improv band reinterpreting Hendrix material but has since become a distinctive, improv group with a contemporary rock'n roll attitude. Acoustic Ladyland won BBC Jazz Award Best Band 2005 and were also nominated for Best Album.
After studying at the Royal Academy of Music Richard went on to tour and record with drummer and pianist Gary Husband in Husband's quartet 'Drive' alongside saxophonist Julian Siegel and bassist Michael Janisch.

In 2007 Richard founded Round Trip, featuring saxophonist Michael Chillingworth, bassist Tom Farmer and drummer Josh Morrison. The groups debut album was released in April 2011 on F-IRE Records.

If anybody has a ridge hunter or exile they would like to trade,let me know. It has a hind sight Dead Finger,brand new,6" X Factor stabilizer in Next G1 camo,and a new Hostage Pro on it. I paid 479 for the bow and have only put 6 shots through it. Strings and cable in perfect shape,never dry fired and waxed after shooting. I will post pics in a few when I get to my laptop. The stabilizer was 60, rest 65,and the hindsight was 105. Would like to get 499 loaded,or trade your bare above-mentioned model for mine. We can work the trade deal out. Pics in a few. Thanks,Tom

Many men in St. Louis served in the Civil War. While some served in the Confederacy, most were part of the Union Army. After the war, Union veterans formed a fraternal organization called the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR).
The roster of the Frank P. Blair Post No. 1 as of 5 April 1905 has been indexed. The names of the veterans and their unit(s) are included in the index. This roster also indicates that these veterans were still living as of that date.
Original Civil War pension records are available at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. You can order the pension files online at the National Archives Military website.

Commissioners to look at budget, taxes, bar restrictions
SALISBURY County commissioners will discuss the upcoming budget Monday before considering a plan to raise sales taxes and lower property taxes.
The Rowan County Board of Commissioners will consider the tax proposal at 6 p.m. Tuesday on the second floor of the J. Newton Cohen Sr. Rowan County Administration Building. Prior to the regular meeting, commissioners will hold a planning workshop at 3 p.m. to discuss the countys 2013-14 budget.
In a note to the board, Commissioner Craig Pierce said he has calculated that between 38 and 42 percent of county taxpayers pay property taxes, meaning that the majority do not.
This is not only unfair but it is a business model that cant maintain our future growth, he wrote. I propose a sales tax increase of 1 cent per dollar to help offset the cost of capital improvement, current construction at (Rowan-Cabarrus Community College) and to offer a minimum of 2 cents per $100 tax value reduction to our property taxpayers.
A quarter of the 1 percent sales tax increase would be reserved for capital projects.
Come out ahead
Pierce said calculations from Finance Director Leslie Heidrick show that the county could net $175,000 by reducing property taxes by 5 cents. If the sales tax revenues are shared with municipalities, the county could still come out $75,000 ahead with a 4-cent decrease.
The current property tax rate is 62.25 cents per $100 valuation. The countys sales tax rate is 7 percent, including the 4.75 percent state rate and the countys voter-approved 0.25-cent sales tax for a new 911 center, radio telecommunications upgrades and satellite jail.
Commissioners would need to request a local bill in the General Assembly to raise the sales tax rate again.
Fire district change
In addition, on Monday the board plans to consider a citizen petition to transfer the Wellington Estates subdivision off Moose Road from Mount Mitchell Fire District to Bostian Heights Fire District.
More than two-thirds of homeowners in the subdivision signed the petition, according to a memo to Emergency Services Director Frank Thomason from Fire Division Chief Aaron Youngblood.
The president of the Bostian Heights Fire Department Board of Directors and the chairman of its fire tax commissioners have both signed letters of concurrence. But the Mount Mitchell Fire Department Board of Directors says it isnt endorsing the transfer because the subdivision would be better served by remaining in its district.
Without support from Mount Mitchell, according to state statute, the county cant relocate the fire district boundary lines.
Instead, the county could choose to do nothing, a new petition could be created asking commissioners to hold a special election, or a county service district could be created with new boundaries for each affected fire district. Youngblood recommmended the last option.
Drinking places
Also at Tuesdays meeting, commissioners plan to:
Hold a public hearing for changes to the countys zoning ordinance that would prohibit bars from being located within 1,000 feet of a church, public school, private school, licensed day care, public park or another drinking place.
This standard would not apply to non-conforming drinking places seeking to expand, but it would apply to those deemed abandoned or discontinued. The measure was recommended unanimously by the county planning board
Hold a public hearing for a CDBG-ED Grant for CanAm Yarns, a subsidiary of Gildan Activewear Inc.
CanAm Yarns plans to invest more than $5.8 million in renovations to the former PGT building, located at 2121 Heilig Road, along with $44 million in new equipment. It expects to create 170 new jobs within 24 months, with total employment quickly growing to 200. Gildan has received investments from the county and the state for this project.
The company is now asking to partner with the county in order to apply for a $750,000 building reuse and restoration grant to help pay for its renovations. The grant would require a match of at least $750,000 from CanAm Yarns, and the company must create the number of jobs required in order to keep the full amount as awarded.
Hold a public hearing for a rezoning and conditional use district of 8.05 acres of property, located at 360 N.C. Highway 801 in Woodleaf, from rural agricultural to industrial. The rezoning was requested by owner William Ratliff Jr. to accommodate a metal recycling center.
Hold a public hearing for a rezoning of 182.67 acres of property from commercial, business and industrial to rural agricultural. Lanny Hale Corriher, who lives on Mellondale Lane in China Grove, requested the rezoning of 10 parcels belonging to him and six other family members, due to apparent difficulties in obtaining financing for residential uses within non-residential districts.
Hear the Community Child Protection Team annual report for 2012.
Authorize the Board of Elections to apply for a Title I Help America Vote Act funds grant of $8,685.94. The state would be reimbursing the county for the costs of election coding for the second primary and the general election in 2012.
Purchase console furniture for the new 911 center from Evans Furniture for $300,000.
Approve a cell tower lease at Youngs Mountain for a public safety radio upgrade. The county is working with American Towers to co-locate radio and microwave equipment on its tower there, in order to impove coverage on the west side of the county.
The lease will be for two years, with an option for a one-year renewal for up to six more years. The county will not be charged any monthly fee until all equipment is installed on the tower.
Approve a proclamation honoring William Pete Kennedy with the Legacy of a Leader.
Consider approval of budget amendments.
Meet in closed session for a personnel matter and to approve minutes from a Dec. 3 closed session.

Aerospace Plays Big Role in NEXT Big Thing
Mark Crofton measures movements made by the NASA Evolutionary Xenon Thruster (NEXT) during testing. (Photo: Heather Golden/The Aerospace Corporation)
Aerospace, in partnership with NASA, is on the cutting edge of the next big thing in ion engine propulsion – the aptly named NASA Evolutionary Xenon Thruster (NEXT).
What is the NEXT?
The NEXT, which was developed at the NASA Glenn Research Center, is the newest generation of electric ion thrusters and has a fuel efficiency that is 5-to-20 times greater than a chemical thruster. Fuel efficiency can be "chosen" to best match mission needs.
Ion thrusters have a lower level of thrust than their chemical counterparts, but each exhaust particle moves much more quickly as it exits, so less propellant mass can do the same job. While they are not powerful enough to launch a vehicle into space, their higher specific impulse (a measure of fuel efficiency) opens up new possibilities for future deep space exploration and longer trips to explore far off asteroids or planets, as well as new motion-intensive applications in near-Earth space.
"This is one of the ways to get very far in a feasible way," said Mark Crofton, senior scientist, Propulsion Science Department. "You could say it's got great gas mileage and can run forever." Crofton is one of the handful of Aerospace scientists who has worked with the NEXT.
The uniqueness of the solar-powered NEXT engine, however, has mostly to do with its very long lifespan compared to any other thruster, chemical or electric, and improved performance capability relative to other ion engine designs. It can operate at high power levels – up to seven kilowatts and beyond, and process large amounts of propellant over its lifetime. Continue reading…

About Afghanistan
USAID is helping Afghanistan become a more responsible and integrated member of the region and the world. Great strides have been made in health and education, bringing more Afghans back into economic and civic life.
Institutions that can accountably respond to people's needs and aspirations are being restored. Investments in infrastructure and human capital are making the country less vulnerable to insurgents and illicit business and more attractive for private-sector enterprise.
Through its work, the Agency has boosted incomes, created jobs and reduced poverty. At the same time, we have improved how we work in Afghanistan. These reforms are core to our mission to accomplish results sustainably and cost-effectively.
USAID and its partners will continue to build upon this foundation. Our focus includes investing in energy, industries and capacities that will generate broad-based and inclusive economic growth and improve security. We are working with the Afghan people to lay the foundation that enables a successful transition from a donor-supported economy to one driven by Afghan growth and ingenuity.

Hart Enterprises: A Wetland Case Study
This study analyzes a dispute between Hart Enterprises Inc., a medical device manufacturer located north of Grand Rapids, and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality. The department alleges that Hart Enterprises' property contains a nearly one-acre wetland — an area that lies in the way of the company's proposed expansion of its parking lot. Because of the DEQ's ruling, the department expects the company to request a wetland permit — request that might be denied, or that might be granted only with significant conditions attached.

"Urban Sprawl" and the Michigan Landscape: A Market-Oriented Approach
Government officials and environmental activists use "stopping urban sprawl" as a mantra to support greater government control over private land use decisions in Michigan through central planning aimed at farmland preservation and urban revitalization. This study critically examines suburbanization and land use in Michigan to determine that the state's economy and farmland and citizens' quality of life are not threatened by economic growth and development, or what activists have dubbed "sprawl." The study argues that restrictions on suburban growth do not address the causes of why people move out of inner cities any more than the Berlin Wall addressed the problems of East Germany's repressive socialist economy. The study concludes by recommending a market-based approach to land use policy and identifying "urban sprawl" as the natural evolution of free people pursuing peaceful ends and their shot at the American Dream. … more
Reforming Property Forfeiture Laws to Protect Citizens' Rights
The Framers of the United States Constitution understood that freedom depends upon the vigorous protection of private property rights and that this protection was therefore the most sacred obligation of government. However, despite Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment guarantees, recent years have witnessed a massive expansion of a legal practice known as "asset forfeiture," which allows government to violate the very property rights it is charged with protecting. Hundreds of asset forfeiture laws-many of them intended to stop illegal drug trafficking-give state and federal law enforcement agents the power to seize property even without proof of the owners' guilt in a criminal trial because, in many cases, the government considers the property itself to be the criminal. This study recommends nine reforms that will help guarantee that Michigan citizens enjoy the benefits of private property rights, limited government, and individual liberty, and remain protected from unjustified and arbitrary seizure of their personal possessions. … more
Reforming the Law of Takings in Michigan
If the state of Michigan takes from a land owner some, but not all, of the use or value of his land, the owner is not entitled to any compensation. This forces a few land owners to bear the entire cost of these takings that are intended to benefit the public as a whole. Many states have initiated reforms that would permit land owners to be more fairly compensated. This study outlines the practice of takings jurisprudence in Michigan, reviews the legislative responses in Michigan and other states, and makes specific recommendations for reform in Michigan. 40 pages. … more

Cadel Evans won his first race of the season and the BMC Racing Team's second at the Tour of Alberta when he out-sprinted four breakaway companions Saturday at the end of the 169.6-kilometer race.
Had A Bit Of Luck
Evans scored the BMC Racing Team's 29th victory of the year – and its 16th in the past six weeks – by biding his time in the sprint at the end of a cool, rainy stage. "You have to look at who's going well," Evans said. "I had an idea (Tom Jelte) Slagter was a pretty fast finisher but I didn't know for the Argos rider (Simon Geschke). So I had to play a bit of luck there, but mainly just patience and waiting it out until the end." Geschke finished second and Slagter was third as Evans added to the victory by BMC Racing Team stagiaire Silvan Diller, who won out of a two-man breakaway on Thursday. Evans's victory was his first since winning Stage 1 of the Critérium du Dauphiné in June of 2012. Teammate Brent Bookwalter finished with the peloton nearly 10 minutes later and remains second overall, 18 seconds behind Rohan Dennis (Garmin-Sharp) with a day of the race to go.
Breakaway Sliced Down
Like on Friday's stage – when Bookwalter nearly gave the BMC Racing Team a stage win in a six-up sprint – the day's original breakaway was whittled down. Nine riders were part of an escape that rapidly built a lead of more than 10 minutes. Geschke attacked with 50 km to go and 16 km later, only five remained in front. "It's been a long time since I've been in a breakaway that's gone to the finish," Evans said. "My hope was being so long away, and a little bit hilly today, that it was going to wear the other guys down. With me being a three-week rider, certainly the harder it is, the better I am in the final against the others. In the end, a bit of cold, a bit of rain, two hills, and a few rough, muddy roads worked out in the end. Most of all, it was the timing that won it for me."

Japanese encephalitis is a mosquito-borne virus that leads to swelling of the brain. It can affect the central nervous system and cause severe complications, even death.
Japanese encephalitis can occur if you are bitten by a mosquito infected with the virus.
These risk factors increase your chance of developing Japanese encephalitis. Tell your doctor if you have any of these risk factors:
Symptoms of Japanese encephalitis usually appear 5-15 days after the bite from an infected mosquito. If you experience any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to Japanese encephalitis. These symptoms may be caused by other conditions. Tell your doctor if you have any of these:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and do a physical exam. Tests may include the following:
Since there is no specific treatment for Japanese encephalitis, care is focused on treating specific symptoms and complications.
There is a
Japanese encephalitis vaccine. It is recommended for people who live or travel in certain parts of Asia and for lab workers who are at risk of exposure to the virus.
Also, take the following measures to protect yourself from mosquito bites:

Guest interview: Justine Quart talks to vegan burlesque performer Anja Keister »
Please welcome guest-interviewer Justine Quart!
I love burlesque, especially if it involves a fabulous outspoken vegan performer, go-go dancer and pin-up model who reps compassionate fashion choices with style. In our chat, Anja Keister explains what's is like to source non-feather glam and how the OG diva RuPaul inspired her to perform on stage.
How long have you been vegan?
I've been living fully vegan for about four years now, but I have slowly transitioned to this point since I was 15 (I'm 26 now). This slow transition was quite an internal journey over the past 11 years. I originally stopped eating beef at 15 because mad cow disease had been all over the media around that time and I was so disgusted the farm industry. I grew up on a farm, my father is hunter, at that point I saw no problem with it. I began to lessen my meat intake over the next few years for health reasons because I was overweight and high cholesterol runs in my family. When I entered college I stopped drinking milk because I was studying jazz singing and the mucus production that dairy gives you was causing problems. I also began to cut out pork and poultry at this point; by 19 I was cutting out seafood and by 20 I was calling myself vegan, but I was sloppy about it and still occasionally bought into the ridiculous "humane meat" idea when pressured by friends. It was when I entered graduate school (2007) that I became more active in the vegan community and began to really investigate my ethical stance and really started to move towards a completely vegan lifestyle. Now I have never been happier about my eating.
What's your major reason for choosing a compassionate lifestyle?
With this long transition I've had many reasons: mad cow disease, factory farms, health/weight, animal compassion, physiological (the idea that human bodies aren't meant to digest animal products), and currently animal rights. I can say that being an advocate for animal rights is the only reason that has really kept me vegan. With all the other reasons I found myself cheating because I could twist my thinking to make it justifiable. Coming now from an animal rights viewpoint, I can never see pain, suffering, or death of other living being as justified.
What first inspired you to get involved with burlesque?
I had always loved over the top glamour and theatrics, in fact as child I saw RuPaul on tv and wanted to be her. [The Adventures of] Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, the Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Cabaret were some of my favorite films growing up. The problem is I had no idea how to be that—I thought it was just something that the movies made up. My friend in Jim Thorpe, Penn., invited a few of us to her house for the Jim Thorpe Burlesque Festival weekend. I thought it sounded fun because there were dance and hula hoop classes so I went along. That made me realize burlesque had so much of what I always wanted in life! The dramatics, the glamour, the humor; I loved it all. My full-time job had squashed my ability to do performance art like I had done in college, so burlesque gave me a new avenue [for] my energy and I plunged right in. Two months later I was already performing.
How would you describe burlesque to someone who has never seen a performance?
A simplified way to look at it is "Stripping – Nudity + Playfulness/Comedy = Burlesque," though that isn't always true. That is one of the things that makes the world of neo-burlesque—a term used to describe the current wave of burlesque since the 1990s—so great. Sometimes it's funny, sexy, dramatic, silly, artistic, it [makes] social commentary, or any combination of those.
I guess a general way to describe it is a person (gender non-specific) performs, typically under five minutes, to music and in the process they will teasingly take off their clothes till they are down to pasties and something covering their crotch. Another difference between Striptease and stripping is that strippers typically are performing for a patron, get their tip and then move onto the next patron. Burlesque is about performing for the audience as a whole, using the collective reaction as fuel for the performance. You wouldn't try to put money in a burlesque performer's g-string unless you want to get publicly mocked or possibly kicked out of the venue. One major thing I would like to point out is that in the neo-burlesque scene, much of the audience is women, and performers of all body types are accepted.
Are there other vegan burlesque performers that you know or perform with?
There are actually quite a lot of performers in New York that eat a vegan diet, but many of them wear animal products. While working on my blog, I found Bettina May, who is located in New York, as well as vegan performers in Scotland and Australia. I also got to work with Dale Rio, a vegan pin-up photographer located in Philadelphia who works within the roller derby and burlesque world.
What obstacles do you run into when maintaining a vegan lifestyle while being involved in a feather- and leather-loving performance scene?
I feel that feathers are an easy default. With the vintage look being popular, it is hard to find hair decorations that don't involve feathers; featherless headdresses are even harder to find. I had to do a lot of searching to find feather boa substitutes, but they are out there! I can say that being involved in the burlesque world has made me a more creative performer and a stronger vegan, plus I found out that satin can sometime include silk fibers! I never knew that until I started working with a costume designer.
Any suggestions for places to find saucy vegan-friendly apparel or wares?
Drag-addict.com has some amazing fabric boas which are great for burlesque. Coquette Faux Furriers, run by Bettina May, has some wonderful fake furs that can double as a boa or add spice to pin-up shoots or for a night out on the town. The vegan sex shop has some vegan-friendly sexy heels, but I typically buy my shoes from regular shoe stores after researching the companies online first. You can find some pretty schnazzy stuff on etsy, but it's important to really work with the seller to make sure all the ingredients are up to vegan standards. I've also found working directly with creators can go a long way. I recently approached a burlesque hat maker in NY about creating a vegan hat for me, and we are now in the midst of figuring out a whole vegan hat line!
What would you most like to say to new performers or anyone considering burlesque?
Do it, whether on a stage or in the privacy of your own home. Take classes, go to shows, or if there isn't a scene in your area, get together with some friends and figure out a way to bring some burlesque there.
What are your go-to vegan comfort foods?
Peanut chews, avocados with salt, brussel sprouts with nutritional yeast, and vegetable sushi.
Favorite vegan cookbook?
I use Veganomicon and Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World a lot but I've also found some great recipes in Quick and Easy Vegan Comfort Food by Alicia C. Simpson. Oh my goodness, the coconut corn chowder in that book is amazing!
Most recommended veg-friendly restaurant in your town?
I would suggest saving up and taking a trip to Blossom Restaurant in midtown if possible. For a more casual dining experience, visit the V Spot in Brooklyn for some Latin-infused classics. If you need a quick bite, the Chipolte on 8th Avenue in Chelsea offers a fake meat option (ask for the "garden blend"), which is currently in a testing phase with the company. And finally, when you need to fulfill a sweet craving, Lula's Sweet Apothecary in the East Village is a sweet shop and all-vegan ice cream parlor that makes their own flavors daily!
Anja is always looking for new people to work with either behind the scenes or on the stage. She recently moved to NYC and is looking for other vegan performers to do all vegan shows for animal groups in in the city. She says, "Neo-burlesque is about creativity, performers having control over their art, acceptance of all and the celebration that accompanies all of this." Check out her website and blog for more info about shows and to contact her directly.
Justine Quart has a penchant for urban exploration and meditation, yoga and boxing, vegan food experimentation and a properly aged whiskey. When she's not dreaming up the next big adventure, she can be found offering kick-ass vegan wellness services at local businesses, freelancing at the SF Appeal and the Bold Italic, or roaming the neighborhood with her partner in crime, el Jefe. Check her out at Dojo Wellness, Heavy Metta, and The Vegan Pin-up (coming soon!).

Never knew it until I saw the results By Kenneth on 8/14/2014 Kenneth would recommend this product to a friend I actually cannot believe how well this product works. If you were using other carbon before, you may wonder what exactly using this type will do for you. That's how I felt, I just knew I needed to give it a try as I did not like using other brands that were not easy to discern what quality I was getting. Turns out, you can really see the difference. I noticed the water clarity becoming better than I ever thought or realized how bad it had gotten. Very easy to use, highly recommend to anyone. clear water, any questions? By James on 7/1/2014 James would recommend this product to a friend Clean crystal clear water, great price, why buy anything else? Best Carbon Value By Kyle on 5/8/2014 Kyle would recommend this product to a friend Used some other carbon from the LFS, until I wised up.... This is the best value for carbon. Make sure you rinse it though, just like all the rest, and it works great! better then buying packets By CalisFinest on 2/12/2014 CalisFinest would recommend this product to a friend love it use it in all my systems needs a good rinsing before use but doesnt get into everything like the rox carbon. get a filter sock or a canister and say good buy to prepackaged carbon this stuff is way better. Good Price By TremontReefer on 1/13/2014 TremontReefer would recommend this product to a friend Best priced Carbon around. Works well. Great product By Michael on 12/30/2013 Michael would recommend this product to a friend We use this in conjuction with the small particle lignite. It usually removes all particles within 1-2 days of use. Really clears up the water. I recommend it. By David on 12/14/2013 David would recommend this product to a friend Great BRS product! Use it on my 76 gallon half round. great product By Dustin on 12/11/2013 Dustin would recommend this product to a friend works great and priced fair Very pleased! By Michael on 11/5/2013 Michael would recommend this product to a friend One thing I'd like to add (and it is recommended in the instructions for the product on this page--but I somehow glossed over it) is that the carbon seems to work MUCH more effectively with a reduced flow rate. I had mine in a canister filter going at about 120 GPH and thought it was doing fine, until I came across the information about it being more effective with slower flow rates. So, I lowered mine, and you know, within a day or two, my corals look so MUCH healthier and open, so yes, very delighted with the results. I didn't feel I had to rinse it out terribly long, but went though the motions just in case. CLEAR By Daniel on 10/31/2013 Daniel would recommend this product to a friend I can't think of a more efficient way to clear a tank up. Easy to use. I rinse after it is installed by flowing the output into a bucket, that way I can get a bonus water change in when I change media. Great Carbon By BBoyter on 7/18/2013 BBoyter would recommend this product to a friend Bought the 5 gallon, now I don't have to buy anymore for a long time. It is dusty for the first few seconds but clears quickly and works great. 5 gallon bucket does have a seal in to keep it fresh.
