text: Dept. of Hoopla November 22, 2010 Issue Hero Worship "Stand Up For Heroes" By Tad Friend Table of Contents Bruce Springsteen and Jerry Seinfeld Credit TOM BACHTELL We admire people who can do something we can't. If we wish we could do that thing, too—or are very glad we don't have to—then we call those people heroes. Hero worship beamed in all directions at Manhattan's Beacon Theatre the other night during "Stand Up for Heroes," a benefit for Bob Woodruff's foundation, which aids wounded veterans. (Woodruff, an ABC News correspondent, was himself badly wounded in Iraq in 2006.) The show's array of stars had other stars crowding in backstage to watch. "It's a little Rat Pack-y thing," Max Weinberg, Bruce Springsteen's longtime drummer, said. When Tony Bennett sang "The Best Is Yet to Come," Springsteen was humming along, just offstage. "Fabulous," he said about Bennett's swingy, catfooted phrasing. "Fabulous! I do not want to follow Tony Bennett." But he did, ripping into "Open All Night," backed by Weinberg's fifteen-piece band. Bob Woodruff stood in the wings, bobbing on the downbeats. "You can't top this," he told his wife, Lee, who was shimmying in a purple dress. Nearby, Jon Stewart, the evening's host, was pounding the air drums alongside a wary Jerry Seinfeld, who stood with his arms crossed. When Springsteen hopped onto the Steinway to play a few licks, the crowd went crazy, and Stewart leaned toward Seinfeld and said, "If you could do that, you would. That's what you would do." After a moment, Seinfeld nodded. The annual "Heroes" concerts were conceived by Andrew Fox and Caroline Hirsch, the producers of the New York Comedy Festival, when they saw a documentary about Woodruff's experience after his tank was blown up, and about how his struggles, which included thirty-six days in a coma, paled beside those of some of his fellow-patients. Realizing that, by and large, it's the poor who go to war, Fox and Hirsch wanted to get those who were rich in funds or talent to return the favor. Backstage, Hirsch recalled that during the Vietnam War, when she was a sixteen-year-old in Flatbush, "my eighteen-year-old boyfriends, the Irish and Italian boys who didn't have the money for college, were the ones who got drafted and came back injured and dead. Just like the soldiers now." The Woodruffs opened the show by speaking not to those who'd paid (up to twenty-five hundred dollars) for tickets but to the forty-six wounded veterans in dress blues and dress greens who sat down front. Bob Woodruff, who has a residue of faint scars and the occasional memory lapse, read the names of the wounded to the audience. The soldiers, some missing eyes or limbs, some suffering from brain injuries or post-traumatic stress, rose, often slowly, to stand. In the wings, Stewart said "Wow!" and Springsteen applauded with all his might. When Springsteen's guitar was auctioned off, for a hundred and forty thousand dollars, to the founder of Philosophy cosmetics—the showpiece bid in an evening that raised more than $2.5 million—Bob Woodruff privately told Lee, "Now what are we going to do? Really can't top that." Then Seinfeld strode onstage, coiled and quizzical, to close the show. He began with a bit about his mother's physical decline and the high-tech gizmos available to her—"If you need brakes on your walker, perhaps you've been misdiagnosed"—and went on to skewer cell phones, Cialis, and the culture of constant hydration. The jokes built and built, spiralling up like a verbal Guggenheim, until the soldiers lay about in a sprawl of helpless joy. When Seinfeld came offstage, Lee Woodruff ran to embrace him. "Oh!" he said, surprised that she'd breached his perimeter. "Thank you." "You have that all memorized?" Bob Woodruff asked. But Seinfeld was gone, like a superhero embarrassed by gratitude. Springsteen was gone by then, too, at least until next year. His selection as the series' anchor was Lee Woodruff's idea: it came about, she explained, when her husband was comatose and she'd talk into his ear for hours, telling him that now he was safe. "Bruce had heard that Bob was a fan, and he'd sent a package of DVDs and a letter saying that Bob was a hero," she said. "Bob was in a coma—he wasn't going to know I was lying—so I changed what Bruce said a little and I went, like, 'Honey' "—she snored to indicate his response—" 'the Boss wrote to you, and he says if you wake up he's going to come and play for you and the other soldiers.' Two days after Bob woke up, he still didn't have any words, but he started doing this"—she made a strumming motion—"and the first thing he said was 'I need one of those na-ner-na-ners.' I said, 'O.K., a guitar, but why?' And he said, 'To be ready to play when the Boss man comes.' " ♦ Tad Friend has been a staff writer at The New Yorker since 1998.

Fall reminds me of the vast impermanence in life. How things change, so quickly, for each of us. When the green leaches from the leaves, and spills splotches of reds and gold in its place. Change is hard. It's hard to watch it go. To watch the greens of people leave, so slowly at first, and then quickly in a rush of color and brittleness. Everything gets fragile in the fall, the rushes of heat that slink to cold nights that somehow seem chillier than the dead of winter. Because we're, all of us, used to the warmth of the sun that sinks in our bones. Used to the big smiles, inside jokes, and carefree living of the summer. Summer is simpler. It holds these big promises of heavy boned happiness and heat.
Autumn holds a special place in my heart. This is the fourth year, that for me, everything gets a little more complicated. I wrote a few years ago, that everything got a little more interesting in the fall. As if my life was synchronous with the change of seasons. Because this time of year, things always change for me too. The color leaches. It gets replaced. And maybe I feel a little more fragile too.
This year is a little different for me. I'm intentionally changing things. Deciding to be my own catalyst. And to be frank, maybe I'm fucking things up a little. But I like it. The shake up. The boldness. The recklessness. It's freeing.
So I go places like this. Where the change is glaring. The leaves are this vibrant burst of color that gives me the feel good chills. Things happen whether you want them to or not. And sometimes it hurts.
But I just remind myself, that the changes in people, are circumstantial. And forced upon them just as much as the change of the seasons is forced on the trees. I tell myself that sometimes people can't help becoming bitter, because life is hard. And there's bits of others that are every bit as fragile as the fragile bits in me, even if they come across calloused. I need to remember that. When I see these changes that feel like the pierce of too bright sunlight.
There are situations that are catalysts, which cause people to change, to feel, to hurt, to react.
And there are people that are catalysts, that cause change, that choose feelings, and understand that everyone is just doing their best.
Even if their best makes them an asshole :).
As Fitzgerald said, "Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall."
And I'm doing that. Again. And I kind of like it.

No. 25 Baylor at No. 9 West Virginia – Noon on FX
Baylor will be the first real test for Geno Smith and the West Virginia offense this season. Although Baylor does not feature a strong defense, the Bears have a great offense, and this game should appear to be a track meet for both teams. I think this game will be a race to see who can score 50 points first.
Virginia Tech vs. Cincinnati (neutral site game) – 3:30 PM on ESPNU and Watch ESPN App
This could be the game that catapults Virginia Tech back into the national picture as far as the AP Top 25 Poll is concerned. Cincinnati has an exciting duel-threat quarterback in Munchie Lagaux and the Bearcats are undefeated, hoisting a record of 2-0. VaTech is 3-1, with a bad loss to Pitt, but the Hokies should be able to become relevant again to college football fans, assuming Logan Thomas and his offense puts away Cincinnati.
No. 4 Florida State at South Florida – 6:00 PM on ESPN and Watch ESPN App
Florida State just came off an exhilarating 49-37 win against Clemson, and this could be a week where the Seminoles take its opponent for granted, seeing as USF is 2-2 and most likely headed to a 6-6 finish in the Big East. How embarrassing would it be if the Bulls play spoilers to Florida State this week? I wouldn't rule this out, especially seeing as Florida State is heading on the road to Tampa to play against USF at Raymond James Stadium.
No. 12 Texas at Oklahoma State – 7:50 PM on FOX
Texas has been the most surprising team for me so far this season. They are beating teams and they are doing it in an impressive fashion each weekend. Given the quarterback mess the Longhorns had last year, I never would have expected Texas to start its 2012 season 4-0. OK State has one blemish on its schedule, but seeing as the Cowboys have only played three games, we still don't really know how good Oklahoma State actually is.
Wisconsin at No. 22 Nebraska – 8:00 PM on ABC
This game is arguably more important than the Ohio State and Michigan State football game on Saturday. Both Wisconsin and Nebraska were trampled on the road by Pac-12 schools that should have been handled easily by these Big Ten giants. Nebraska lost to UCLA without Rex Burkhead and Wisconsin didn't realize that quarterback Joel Stave was a better option than Danny O'Brien at that stage of the season when the Badgers lost to Oregon State. Nebraska has a very impressive run game with Burkhead and Ameer Abdullah. Abdullah is one my new favorite players to watch and he is only outmatched by Northwestern's Venric Mark on my list. I like Nebraska to win this game big, but it should be interesting to see how long Stave can hang with the Cornhuskers.

Taylor. 21. MI. Head over heels in love. Psych major. Milso. Basically only ever using mobile. Always looking for new friends!Lets Be Friends! My Love Our Life Archive
One year ago today, the love of my life started his journey in becoming a United States Marine. Although its been a tough road filled with lots of heart ache and lonely nights, I know it's all been worth it. I cannot express how proud I am of Paul and the man he's become. I know everything he does is for his well being as well as my own. I am so blessed to have him to protect and love me, and to have been lucky enough to be by his side for the past two years. I love you baby. 1 year down, 3 to go!

Since I'm building this system that will have many apps that will require a central authentication server (CAS), and since I'm most experienced with Ruby, I chose the great RubyCAS-Server to handle the heavy lifting.
My host of choice for Ruby apps is Heroku. They take the trouble of maintaining web servers and installing software and configuring applications away from you. And they do it while providing a very simple deployment strategy (git push heroku). All that while not charging that much more than what you would pay for a bare bones instance on Amazon AWS.
All that goodness comes with a price: in order for your app to be scalable in a cloud environment, you don't have access to a file system, you don't have access to a shell, so you don't have root access which is what RubyCAS-Server requires by default.
If you try to run it, it will complain:
Loading configuration for "rubycas-server" from "/etc/rubycas-server/config.yml"…
Attempting to copy sample configuration from '/disk1/home/slugs/194894_4dff271_c804/mnt/config.example.yml' to '/etc/rubycas-server/config.yml'…
It appears that you do not have permissions to create the '/etc/rubycas-server/config.yml' file. Try running this command using sudo (as root).
So, in order to make it run on Heroku you need to first create your copy of the sample config file:
$ cp config.example.yml rubycas-server.yml
Then edit the file lib/casserver/conf.rb. The initial declaration of the local var "conf_defaults" becomes:
conf_defaults = {
:maximum_unused_login_ticket_lifetime => 5.minutes,
:maximum_unused_service_ticket_lifetime => 5.minutes,
:maximum_session_lifetime => 1.month,
:log => {:file => 'casserver.log', :level => 'DEBUG'},
:uri_path => "/",
:conf_file => 'rubycas-server.yml'
And the first call to "$CONF.load_from_file" becomes:
$CONF.load_from_file($APP_NAME, $APP_ROOT, conf_defaults[:conf_file])
This should be it! Now when you deploy to Heroku it will read the correct configuration file automatically.
I still wasn't able to make it connect to the Heroku provided PostgreSQL database through ENV['DATABASE_URL'], but when I do I'll post it here.

Janelle Monae
Blessed with Andre 3000's spunk, Tina Turner's energy and Steven Spielberg's imagination, Janelle is the kind of artist you'll either laugh off as being way too weird or bow down to and call the next big thing. Diddy and longtime fans like OutKast's Big Boi wholeheartedly suggest the latter. Roto Rooter can't stop all the Internet leaks of Janelle's bugged-out Metropolis EP right now. Her debut album won't drop on Bad Boy until September, at the earliest. But it's all good. DXnext has her now before the plutonium-powered bandwagon starts to get too crowded…
Name: Janelle Monae.
Influences: It'd be easy to just say inventive artists like Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley are Janelle's inspirations, but it's deeper than that. Monae also has a deep appreciation for stage productions and musicals like The Wizard of Oz, which actually might make them bigger influences on the artist than Bjork and James Brown ever were.
On Why The Time Is Now For The World To Know Janelle Monae: "Well, I'm really not in control of when people are ready to hear something or ready to be exposed to something this different. I just feel like it's that time. I feel like 2008 is a time –you can see it in politics and I think you'll see it in music- for different voices to be heard and more diverse things to be promoted. I think that there's a movement that's happening, whether I'm in it or not, that's going to continue to happen. It has been happening, but people are just now catching on to it. That's a question you'll have to ask God. He has most definitely told me that this is the time. I'm just following the lead."
On Fighting The Mainstream: "Actually, I don't have to do anything. I think right now I'm pretty well received. All I have to do is continue to stay true to my values. I have a responsibility to creating art and coming up with new concepts and ideas. And I have a responsibility to my community, especially young girls. I really hate talking a lot, so I try to lead by example. By doing that, that's all I can do, you know? I don't like to marginalize networks like BET or MTV, for that matter, or us as an African-American culture or a Chinese culture. I don't marginalize people. I always tell myself that people are very open-minded to new concepts and ideas, but they don't know what they wanna hear until they hear it. I feel like I'll be heard and I feel like I'll be seen."
On Being A Good Example For Black Girls: "That's been a lifelong thing of mine. I grew up in Kansas. I grew up in an environment, to be politically correct, that was a little disadvantaged. By that, there were not a lot of resources at my disposal. I'm not complaining about [that], by any means. But because of that, it forced me to search outside of my neighborhood. To always ask questions. It motivated me to ensure that I was being a strong leader. I'm somewhat of a rock in my family to people twice my age. They look to me, which is a blessing, for advice on certain things that they know good and let they should know as right and wrong. For me, there are so many young girls that were just headed for self-destruction, whether it was getting pregnant by a dope dealer or not reading, to selling sex to get the things they needed. I saw that, and I saw the downfall of that whole movement with young girls. I always knew I had to do something slightly different to show them that we don't all have to take the same routes to become successful. There are other options. As an artist, I have a bigger responsibility to it because, I think, artists are a lot more influential than politicians are. One song can change somebody's life. One girl's message can change somebody's life."
On Early Musical Memories: "When I was 10 or 11, I formed a duo with one of my best friends. I was also a part of this group called The Wierdos. We most definitely were trying to make a statement in Kansas. We raised certain questions and provoked certain emotions in all the people who were walking dead back home. I was in and out of talent shows, competing and I was heavily involved in musical theater. It was the one thing I was religious about. Everyday I would go home and practice and sing. A lot of it just had to do with me trying to escape my environment. Drugs really took over my family. We lost a lot of things, a lot of materialistic things—as well as a lot of time. My parents lost a lot of time to certain drugs like crack and different things like that. I grew around all those things. Music was my escapism. Hard work was just instilled in me. I think the gift of song and the gift of art has such a huge purpose. You don't even really know how powerful you as an artist can be until you're in it. Growing up in that environment, I got a chance to hone my craft. I had nothing but time. I did just that. I knew music could take me out of Kansas, and it did. I've started my own record label, The Wondaland Arts Society. We released an independent project last year. We've been able to, as a company and a team of creative artists, stay true to our innovative ideas and challenge ourselves and remember it's up to us to inspire and influence as many people as we come in contact with."
On The Characteristics Of A Janelle Monae Fan: "That's a good question. It's one I don't think I can answer really. Every time someone says –I do it myself- this person isn't gonna be really into what we're doing or isn't going to like the way I dance on stage, I get proven wrong. I have fans from 78-year-old white Jewish men to nine-year-old little girls whose fathers are executives at record labels. It's very broad. When you come to my performances, the audience is very diverse. That's something I've always prayed for but I didn't know it could really happen. Knowing that it's true and that it does exist, I don't marginalize people. I don't categorize people and say my demographic is this way. I think the one thing that they have in common is that they wanna dance and wanna have fun. I think thriving individuals searching for answers. It takes somebody who's open-minded, but not somebody who's just weird or different. I have supporters who drink and smoke weed and go to Hip Hop clubs to older white men and women. I just thank God for that."
On Other Gifts She's Proud To Have: "I think God has most definitely blessed me with the gift of discernment. As a young African American female, as a female in general in the music industry, you need that. He's led me to know and feel out certain situations and know what's good and who's right to be around me. Who I should stay away from? What things I should stay away from. I'm really anchored in my morals and my values. I don't ever get too big-headed. I always remember that I can be as funky as can be but I can't get too big-headed. I've avoided a lot of situations by just saying no to certain bad opportunities. Just waiting and being patient and knowing that I'm not in control. Something higher is in control. At all times I must acknowledge that and stay humble and stay true to the gift of art that I was blessed with."
What Makes Her DXNext-worthy?: Because there's "new sound" and then there's so-crazy-you-wonder-what-kind-of-barbituate-the-person-was-on-when-they-recorded-it new sound.

"The L Word" Recaps: Episode 5.6 "Lights! Camera! Action!"
The cold light of day — It's 4:03 a.m. Bette reluctantly unwraps herself from Tina's embrace. With her back turned to Tina, she silently mouths the words "I love you." But Tina's not so silent.
Tina: Jodi would be so devastated.
Bette: She can't find out.
Tina: Well, I'm certainly not gonna tell her.
Bette: I'm sorry, I just … I just need more time. That's all.
Tina: I'm not pushing you. I don't even know what I want.
They agree — to the point of saying it about five times in five different ways — that they need to figure out what they want and what's right for them. Individually. Right. Yes. Starting with one more kiss.
The Lez Girls set — Jenny and Adele have arrived for the first day of shooting.
Jenny: Wow, Adele, can you believe this? All of this because of a few little words that I put on a page.
False modesty does not become you, Jenny.
Jenny is generally clueless — not knowing, for example, that a "room" is a "trailer" — but Adele somehow knows everything about showbiz. Curiouser and curiouser.
A crew member stops them and asks if they're looking for extras holding. Oops. You're fired!
Keeping up appearances — Jodi and Bette are meeting with Chancellor Kroll. They think they're there to discuss the traumatic art project. But Phyllis wants them to help her smooth things over with her daughter, who now thinks her mother is a "promiscuous, debauched lesbian."
Phyllis: I need you to help me convince Molly that lesbians can be respectable and upstanding and stable.
Bette, are you willing to make such a statement today?
Phyllis thinks Molly will get the message if she just spends some time with Bette and Jodi. And then the conversation turns to the shoot-himself-in-the-head art student. Bette proposes that she make a statement and Jodi do some sort of mea culpa.
Molly interrupts; Phyllis insists that she sit down and meet the upstanding lesbian citizens.
Phyllis: [whispering] They're lesbians.
Hee. Phyllis still cracks me up, and is obviously perfect for Joyce.
Out of nowhere, Jodi resigns, shocking the room. She supports the student's provocative art but knows that Bette never would have approved it.
Jodi: I love teaching here. I love my class. [to Bette] But it sucks that your job is jeopardized by something that I'm totally responsible for. So, I can't live with that. I'm resigning. But remember, I have my work. And, most importantly, I have you. So I'll be fine.
Fine is definitely not the word Bette's thinking right now. It's the right number of letters, though.

Jerome Horwitz: 5 Surprising Facts About the Inventor of AZT
Posted By Patrick Kiger On September 21, 2012 @ 4:51 pm In Legacy | Comments Disabled
It wasn't that long ago – 1987, to be precise – that U.S. Surgeon General Everett Koop predicted [1] the HIV/AIDS epidemic would kill 100 million people by the year 2000. That didn't happen. [2] Instead, about 34 million people are living with HIV, according to AVERT, an international health organization, and a 2006 study published in the British medical journal QJM found that patients who are diagnosed as HIV-positive before developing full-blown AIDS now have an average life expectancy of 21.5 years [3]. Once, the public faces of HIV were dead movie stars, artists and musicians; today, it's pro basketball great Earvin "Magic" Johnson, who by all accounts is still in excellent health, two decades after his diagnosis.
Who do we have to thank for this startling turnabout? Medical researcher Jerome P. Horwitz, who back in 1964 discovered AZT, a medication that prevents HIV from replicating and lowers the amount of the virus in the bloodstream. Combined with other medications, AZT has helped turn HIV from an automatic death sentence into what in many cases is a manageable condition.
Here are five surprising facts about Horwitz, who died Sept. 6 at age 93 [4] in Bloomfield Township, Mich.
Here's a video explaining how AZT works.[7]

Chili-Stuffed Flank Steak
- Yield 2 servings
Rubbed with a little chili powder and stuffed with canned chili and diced green chilies, this tenderized piece of flank steak will melt in your mouth once it's grilled to perfection.
- 1 1/4 pounds lean flank steak (about 1/2-inch thick), pocket cut
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can chili with beans, drained
- 1/4 cup canned diced green chiles
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 cup low sodium barbecue sauce
- Heat a grill to high heat.
- Place the flank steak on a sheet of heavy duty foil and fill the pocket of the flank steak with chili and diced chilies. Secure the opening of the flank steak with a skewer. Rub the surface of the steak with a thin film of oil (about 2 teaspoons) and season with the chili powder.
- Clean the grill grate with a metal brush and rub with oil. Put the steak on the grill, cover, and grill to medium-rare, about 8 minutes, turning once halfway through. Coat the flank steak with barbecue sauce and grill another minute on each side.
- Remove skewer, and cut flank steak in thin slices against the grain and serve.

Cyber Criminals Hate Brian Krebs So Much They Sent Heroin and SWAT Teams to His Home
If you have the right kind of knowledge, enough free time, and a penchant for misanthropy, the internet can provide the means to make someone's life really fucking miserable. A perfect example is last week's case of internet security journalist Brian Krebs being sent a package of heroin in an attempt to frame him for a drugs charge.
Krebs has become perhaps one of the most reviled enemies of the cyber-underworld, but I suppose that was always bound to happen after he made it his life's work to expose the web's elusive cyber criminals and credit card fraudsters. Unfortunately for our digital Dick Tracy, the community he targets have a wealth of resources that they can use to mess with him in response—stuff that far surpasses posting passive-aggressive tweets or signing him up to tedious fashion PR email blasts.
Alleged Russian credit card fraudster—or "carder," as they're known to people who know about them—MUCACC1 (a.k.a. "Fly"), ordered a gram of heroin to be sent to Krebs' home and faked a phone call from one of his neighbors to tip off the police. But, like something out of a 2.0 Douglas Adams novel, Krebs had already infiltrated Fly's private carding community forum and found the post detailing his plan. It turned out that Fly had managed to raise $200-worth of Bitcoins from other like-minded Brian-haters to purchase the drugs from the deep-web black market Silk Road.
And, as you might have guessed from the financial support he received, that wasn't the first run-in Brian Krebs has had with the nefarious inhabitants of the underweb. Throughout his ten years of writing about internet security and fraud, he's been the target of constant harassment from various shady online communities.
His website is frequently the target of attacks that disrupt his business as an independent journalist, $20,000 of credit was fraudulently taken out in his name to shake him up financially, and he was once a victim of SWATing, where a phoney distress call is made from your address so that a SWAT team tears up to your house and waves their guns in your face—a gradually escalating pattern of harassment all inflicted on Krebs because of his chosen line of work.
I spoke to Fly, the heroin sting ringleader, in an obscure instant messaging chat room about planting drugs, ordering assassinations from the net, and why he hates Brian Krebs so much.
Brian Krebs. (Photo via)
VICE: Hi, Fly. Why did you attempt to frame Brian Krebs with a package of heroin?
Fly: You could say it was just for lulz. Besides, he pays for his lunch with the money that we [carders] are losing, using criminal techniques. If you want to write about crime, be honest. If you're not honest, you will have to pay. We didn't invite him to our forum. He became a celebrity by putting the spotlight on Russian carding. All serious carders are against the popularization of carding. The less people, the better—we don't want to create new criminals. And he's popularizing it.

Recipe for Success: NYC Boosts Efforts for Small Food CompaniesDate: 02/06/13 | Source: Specialty Food News
Categories: Industry Operations; Suppliers | Tags: Event News; Store Expansions; Investor; New York; NYC; Specialty Food Association; SFFS
With help from the city, the owner of food startup Morris Kitchen, has reasons to think big. Morris Kitchen, a 500-square-foot commercial space in Brooklyn, was one of four local food companies to win a contest last summer to attend the Summer Fancy Food Show. Since then, Morris has added 15 new store accounts and two distributors, expanding the producer's reach to Japan, Australia and the U.K. Upscale British retailer Harvey Nichols just featured Morris Kitchen's signature Ginger Syrup on its website. Company sales, which hit $140,000 in 2012, are expected to double this year.
The contest is just one program the city is pushing in an effort to boost local food companies, one of the bright spots in an otherwise declining manufacturing sector. At a recent New York City Food Manufacturers Business Expo attended by 200 local food companies, the New York City Economic Development and Goldman Sachs announced a $10 million food manufacturers fund. Loans ranging from $50,000 to $750,000 will be doled out to local food companies who are unable to tap traditional modes of financing, reports New York Daily News. Full Story

Sobotka sent back to Providence
|04.14.09 at 7:52 pm ET
Following Tuesday's practice, the Boston Bruins sent forward Vladimir Sobotka back down to Providence. Sobotka was called up to Boston on April 10 and registered an assist in the final two road games in New York (Sabres, Islanders) to close out the season. The move indicates that both P.J. Axelsson and Patrice Bergeron (both didn't play in either of the NY games) made it through the practice skate without any complications and the B's — save for sidelined D-man Andrew Ference — are about as healthy as they could hope for the start of the series vs. the Habs.
Sobotka will finish out the season with the P-Bruins and suit up for them in the playoffs, but would be the first logical player called back up should the B's suffer injuries along the front line against Les Habitants.
Sobotka has played in 25 games for Boston during the 2008-2009 season and recorded 1-4=5 totals. On April 10, he was recalled from Providence on an emergency basis and recorded 0-1=1 totals in the Bruins last two games of the regular season against Buffalo and the Islanders.
In 44 games with the P-Bruins this year, Sobotka contributed 20 goals, 24 assists and a +11 plus/minus rating. He split the 2007-2008 season between Boston and Providence. With Boston, he saw action in 48 regular season games and contributed one goal and six assists and added two goals in six postseason games. With Providence last year, he had 10-10=20 totals in 18 regular season games and added four assists over six postseason games.
Sobotka was originally drafted by the Bruins in the 4th round (106th overall) of the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.

Top water decision-makers from seven Western states plan to join conservation groups and Indian tribes in San Diego on Tuesday to begin hammering out rules for squeezing every useable drop from the overtaxed Colorado River.
The work meeting hosted by federal water managers comes amid dire predictions for the waterway. The U.S. interior secretary five months ago issued a call to arms and declared that the river already described as the most plumbed and regulated in the world would be unable to meet demands of a growing regional population over the next 50 years.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
"We're looking at a very significant chance of declaring a shortage in the Colorado River basin in 2016," Michael Connor, commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation, said in an interview in advance of the conference.
"We really need to get to specifics, technical liabilities and the political feasibility of projects," he said.
Connor heads the federal agency responsible for what he called the most litigated and fought-over resource in the country. He said data projects 2013 will be the fourth-driest year in the Colorado River basin over the past 100 years. Last year was the fifth-driest year on record.
The river provides drinking water, power and recreation for some 40 million people in California, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and Wyoming. Its largest reservoirs — Lake Mead near Las Vegas and Lake Powell near Page, Ariz. — are projected to drop to 45 percent capacity by September, Connor said.
Mexico also has a stake in the river, and U.S. and Mexican officials signed a pact in November for new rules on sharing Colorado River water, including a deal that lets Mexico store water in Lake Mead. The deal provides for international cooperation to ensure that river water reaches the Gulf of California for the first time in decades.
Anne Castle, assistant interior secretary for water and science, called Tuesday's conference at a U.S. Geological Survey office near San Diego International Airport the start of a "next steps" process.
Castle said she hopes more ideas and practical solutions will surface to deal with shortages predicted by a study released by the bureau in December.
The report looked at supply and demand of Colorado River Basin water. It said that by 2060, with the Southwest's population expected to swell, the river won't be always able to serve all the residents, businesses, ranchers, Native Americans and farmers who rely on it.
"This 'next steps' process may serve as a template for the way to implement the analysis being done in all these basin studies," Castle said in a conference call. "Part of that is bringing together all the diverse interests that will be represented."
Castle said a Ten Tribes Partnership representative of Native American groups and several regional environmental advocates were expected to attend. Plans call for organizing a trio of work groups representing municipal, agricultural and conservation interests.
Jennifer Pitt, head of the Environmental Defense Fund's Colorado River Project, said groups including Western Resource Advocates, Protect the Flows and Nuestro Rio want to see more water banking, along with more efficient use of existing urban water supplies, the reuse of waste water, better watershed management and improved agricultural techniques.
"Communities that depend on the Colorado River — for water supply or as the foundation of a $26 billion recreation economy — cannot afford to wait," Pitt said in a statement.
Save The Colorado representative Gary Wockner said he also planned to attend.
When the Colorado River was tamed by dams and canal water allocations were made nearly a century ago, agricultural interests gained broad water and irrigation rights that helped transform California's vast arid Imperial Valley east of San Diego into one of the most productive winter fruit and vegetable, cotton and grain farming regions in the country.
Tension has grown in recent years along with the sprawl of thirsty cities including Denver, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Phoenix.
The seven river basin states responded by forging agreements on allotments in 2003 and guidelines for sharing the pain of shortage in 2007.
Pat Mulroy, general manager of the Las Vegas-based Southern Nevada Water Authority and a delegate to Tuesday's meeting, called the issues facing river users daunting, but not insurmountable.Next Page >

The Kansas City Chiefs are in talks to extend star outside linebacker Justin Houston to a long-term deal after his monster 2013 campaign, but they have re-signed a different outside linebacker today. This one is an impending free agent, and it always feels good to keep a quality backup around on the day before the official start of free agency.
Per a source close to FOX Sports's Mike Garafolo, Frank Zombo has agreed to terms on a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, and terms have not been disclosed at this point in time. I'm sure the 27-year-old Central Michigan product signed a deal for no more than two years with not much money to be found in either of those seasons.
Zombo isn't a quality starter or anything, but he's a quality backup outside linebacker to the superstar pass rushing duo of Houston and Tamba Hali. He's probably one of John Dorsey's favorites, as the Chiefs GM brought him over from the Green Bay Packers last season. Zombo is capable of being a decent player in a pinch if Houston or Hali goes down, and he showed it last season by recording 27 tackles, two sacks, two passes defended, and appearing in all 16 games.

For all its advantages, solar power has one obvious drawback: the space that the arrays take up. Even though solar panels have gotten smaller and more efficient, the space they occupy cannot be used for other purposes. Researchers at Michigan State University have developed a solution to this issue: a luminescent solar concentrator that can be placed over a window, or anything with a clear surface, that produces solar power while remaining transparent. Previous generations of luminescent solar concentrators, while efficient, are still colored and thus can affect the aesthetic of a room. The new design, however, is as transparent as glass.
A clear benefit to this development is its scalability, from smartphone screens to skyscrapers with a multitude of windows, solar concentrators that are truly transparent could be used for a variety of applications and could eliminate one of the common objections to a solar power switch: "Where will we put the panels?"
The researchers say the solar concentrator will still need more development to produce enough energy to be commercially viable, as its current efficiency is around 1%. They are optimistic, however, that when fully optimized the concentrator will reach similar efficiencies to the best colored luminescent solar concentrators on the market today, which operate around 5-7% efficiency.

OK, this is pretty cool ... it's weird ... but it's cool.
Jim Peterik -- the original lead singer of the band Survivor -- busted out his nicest guitar, and his tightest white pants, and jammed out an acoustic version of "Eye of the Tiger" in a basement ... and it was awesome.
It all went down Tuesday night at a home in Chicago, where the guys from "Hardcore Pawn: Chicago" were holding a live chat for their fans.
Jim -- who was born in Illinois -- stopped by to hang out ... and while he was there, the 62-year-old rock legend busted out a rendition of his biggest hit -- you know, the song from "Rocky III."
Now, watch the video ... put on your finest track suit ... and go run up some stairs.
It's what Mickey would want ...
I predict that Mr. Peterik will be the next Mr. Weiner.
This is kinda sad. It seems he is stuck in the past, when he was at his prime, and unable to move on.
he also did the " Real Men of Genius " add's for budweiser a few years back
Did somebody finally fix the Way Back Machine?
Jim Peterik is one of the nicest persons I've had the honor to meet. I noticed that he made sure that he remembered people's names. He showed an interest in the people he met, asking them about their lives, jobs, families and friends.
Jim is NOT the original singer of Survivor. He is the original keyboardist. The original singer is actually Dave Bickler, who is also the voice behind the 'Real Men of Genius' beer ads you hear on the radio.
fat, drunk and stupid... Chicago, Chicago... lol!
TMZ, you should really check your facts before you do a story.
Jim Peterik was the lead singer of the IDES OF MARCH. Their biggest hit was Vehicle. Jim went on to form the Survivor as one of the chief songwriters and played keys.
Dave Bickler was original lead singer of Survivor from 1977–1983 and 1993–1999. From 1999-2009, Dave was the singing voice behind the highly successful 'Real Men of Genius' Bud Light radio and TV commercials, the most award-winning radio campaign in advertising history!
Actually, Jim was the original keyboardist and one of the co-founders of the band. Dave Bickler was the original lead singer.
You can book him too: 125 $ for 45 min.
BUT do NOT give him an alcoholic drinks! He will chase your daughters, piss on your carpet and smash his guitar on you head.
The "rock legend" ? Seriously ?
Jim is anything but sad or stuck on the past. I've met him a couple of times and he's extremely kind and humble, and enjoying the fruits of his many successes in semi-retirement. My guess is that someone involved in this knew Jim and asked him to do it, and he thought it'd be a hoot so he did. That's just how laid back and cool he is. For the record - about 2 months ago I saw him perform at a theater in Michigan (which he packed) and he killed it. Dude can shred the HELL out of a guitar and puts on a great show... And he really is a really great guy. He's also one of the most prolific songwriters in rock & roll and, quite literally, write the book on it. Rock on, Eye of theTider, rock on...
I'm soooo glad there are people out there that know that TMZ is WRONG on their "fact" that Jim was the original singer! Grrr! I hate when they say things before they check these things out. Seriously!
There must be some audio codec disaster there, it makes the base of my spine disharmonise and drives a subcarrier of explosive nausea all the way up to the elbow.
Jimi Jamison is the Singer of "Eye of the Tiger". Not this guy!
