" Brand: Flair / Type: Doll "

My daughter's latest 'thing' is Sylvanian Families. Sylvanian Families are toys which have been going for years, I have fond memories of playing with them as a child in the late 1980's/early 1990's. The toys come in the form of little animal characters (that wear clothes) which are made from flocked plastic. The characters began as woodland creatures (foxes, rabbits, hedgehogs etc) but now include other animals such as cats, elephants, meerkats and penguins. Sylvanian houses, cars and furniture are also available. There is SO much Sylvanian Families merchandise to collect.
The latest additions to my daughters Sylvanian Families collection is a pair of persian cat twins.
The twins come packaged inside a cardboard box (with plastic over the top so you can see exactly what's inside). The twins are very small (no more than 2 inches), so therefore the age recommendation is 4+ years. The twins have names (Roma and Rona), although their names aren't stated on the box (I only know their names because my daughter had previously pointed out the persian twins on a list of Sylvanian Families characters). Therefore your child can make up their own names if they wish.
The whole persian cat family consists of a mother, father, older son, older daughter (sold as a set of 4) and 3 babies (2 twin girl babies sold together, the other baby boy sold separately).
The persian twins are very cute looking. They are an all white colour. Their bodies are smooth but their heads are fuzzy. This is a really sweet thing to have and is something which my daughter really likes. The difference between normal cats and persian cats is that the persian cats are fuzzy. The twins have little pink ears, small black ears and pink noses. They also have mouths which is a really good feature to have as it allows my daughter to wedge dummies and bottles in to their mouths (she already has these accessories from other Sylvanian Families sets). One of the babies is in a sitting position and the other baby is in a crawling position. One of the babies wears a material pink nappy/bib outfit and the other baby wears the same outfit but in yellow. My daughter loves undressing and dressing her Sylvanian Families characters, but the babies outfits are too fiddly for her to put back on (so I have to do it!). Unfortunately the persian babies are pretty basic, they don't have movable joints (only their heads move) or any special features. They don't come with any accessories or extras.
The cats are pretty solid and seem very durable. I still have some Sylvanian Families characters from when I was a child, so I'm quite sure they will stand the test of time!
We bought the Sylvanian Families Persian Cat Twins from The Entertainer for £8.00. Sylvanian Families sets are usually quite expensive and I accept that, however I think the persian twins are still overpriced. They're very cute, durable and my daughter enjoys playing with them. They're also good for imaginative play and fit in nicely with my daughters Sylvanian Families collection (particularly her persian cat family). However they are extremely small, basic and they don't come with any accessories. I have previously bought my daughter sets of 2 different Sylvanian babies for £8.00 and they came with lots of nice accessories...
A cute addition to your Sylvanian Family, these twin Persian cats are tiny and playful. Their bright blue beady eyes are almost hidden in their fluffy white fur. They have matching outfits

At what point is a refusal to treat your child's cancer with traditional chemotherapy medical neglect? Just how far does a family's personal religious freedoms extend?
Minnesota Judge John Rodenberg grappled with these exact issues, ruling Friday that a family's refusal to treat their son's Hodgkin's lymphoma with chemotherapy amounted to medical neglect. The Judge ordered the 13 year-old to be evaluated by a doctor to determine if the boy would benefit from chemotherapy treatments, over the objections of the boy's parents. The family has until Tuesday to seek additional evaluations. If the tests show that the cancer has advanced to the point where chemotherapy and radiation would be futile, then the Court would not order treatment. However, if the tests show that chemotherapy and radiation would help the boy, and if the parents continued to refuse treatment, the boy would be placed under the care of child protective services, although it is not at all clear how Court-ordered medical treatment would proceed.
The Minnesota case illustrates just how difficult these kinds of religious exercise cases can be. We witnessed the absurd politicization of Terri Schiavo's last days, with politicians who were not treating physicians but happened to be medical doctors making pronouncements on her care. Shiavo's case became a cause celebre for the right-to-life movement, yet that same advocacy group has so far been unusually quiet regarding the Minnesota case.
Why is that? If pro-life groups consider it murder to remove the life support of a woman who spent seven years in a persistent vegetative state, what about these parents who refuse a medical treatment that the treating physicians believe have about a 90 percent chance of curing their son's cancer because it conflicts with their personal religious beliefs?
The reality is both families made essentially the same argument, that is, that they, and not the government, should have the right to make personal, critical, and important medical decisions for themselves and their family members. Though they cite two separate sources for that right, in the Schiavo case it was the right to privacy, and in the Minnesota case, the right to exercise their religious beliefs as they saw fit, both families wanted the privacy and dignity to make a painful decision without the interference of the government. Both families should have that right, regardless if it is a privacy right or a religious exercise right, and the pro-life movement should recognize that right, regardless of source. Of course to do so would to cede ground on the intellectual and Constitutional underpinnings of Roe v. Wade.
The Minnesota case is a real tragedy. A family struggles with making life and death decisions concerning their child and have essentially had the ability of to make those decisions abdicated by the Court. Judge Rodenberg deserves a lot of credit for trying to come to a practical, compassionate, and just ruling. However the case remains a lesson in just how hard it is to balance individual freedoms when the result inevitably ends in death.

I think this is an extreme and extraordinary case. I think there are things that we do not know about the details.
It was reported today in the Minneapolis Star Tribune that Dr. Bostrom indicated "It was the first time in 25 years I've ever had to do that," Bostrom said Friday. "I've had parents who disagreed, but until now, we've always been able to work it out, find a way to get appropriate treatment."
A court-ordered X-ray that showed the tumor, which had shrunk after the first of six planned treatments, had grown back. (While they were doing nutritional interventions at home)
There is no evidence, from the X-ray, that the cancer has spread,'' Bostrom added. "We're just back where we started."
Yes, I agree this is an extraordinary case.
Another portion of the series in the Star Tribune indicates that the mother became a member of the Nememhah Tribe after the cancer was diagnosed.
This is a very gray area of medicine, law, family rights, etc. However, one issue that has been mentioned is that Daniel is unable to read, and didn't quite seem to comprehend what his religion is about, what his illness is about, or understand the choice in treatments and possible outcomes. In other words, this was not a mature, well educated 13 year old who had a full understanding of the issues at hand.
The whole story just seems to hazy to me. Having worked in healthcare, I have seen first hand how families and professionals clash over treatment issues for children. This is not a one size fits all situation, but in this case, I wonder how much Daniel really understood about anything? Or his parents for that matter?
FYI, I am a big proponent of alternative therapies, but I do believe in combining the best of alternative and standard to achieve the best outcomes for the patient.
This is her child and she feels she is protecting him from harm so nobody has a right to make her do anything that she feels will hurt him unless or until they prove to me that those people brought him into this world they are stepping over the line and that is a fact.
There is a National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine; Advocate for increased funding.
Participate in clinical trials for complementary medicine:
It is through these means that someday there may be proven alternatives to chemotherapy. We are no there yet, but it is a possibility in the future.
Certainly if natural works then natural is the way. But when it doesn't work one goes to what does. This isn't about big pharma, it is about a young 13 year old, intellectually challenged boy and how he can live into adulthood. It is about how he can receive treatment for a type of cancer that is almost completely curable. Once the cancer is gone, he can continue to do all of the preventative natural measures one would do to prevent cancer. He can do them now to complement chemotherapy and decrease the harsh effects of a very harsh treatment regimen.
I hope one day they will find a natural alternative to chemo that actually works, but we are not there yet.
We can support and fund valid research on these natural, alternative methods so that someday there may be a kinder cure for cancer.
And for those who keep insisting that a child has the absolute right to control his own medical care, even if it means he may die:
If a 13-year-old boy has a gangrenous leg that needs to be amputated to save his life and he refuses because he thinks going through life with only one leg is the end of the world - should his parents allow him to make the choice?
If a 16-year-old girl needs steroids to treat a life-threatening condition but refuses to take them because they make her puff up and appear overweight and she hates not looking beautiful - should her parents allow her to make her own choices?
If a ten-year-old child has an appendix that is about to burst, killing him, but doesn't want the surgery because he's scared of doctors and surgery and shots - should his parents allow him to choose to not have surgery?
Children often don't think things through. A boy who is heavily into football may well balk at having a leg amputated, even if it will save his life. He may not have the maturity to realize that lots of people go through life with only one leg - and have wonderful lives.
A teenaged girl may not have the maturity to realize that looks aren't everything - and that being puffy from medication is better than being buried in the grave.
A child may not have the maturity to realize that there is more to fear from a burst appendix than there is from the surgery.
It's about parents showing maturity and protecting children from immature choices.
Penicillin is a poison. It kills a living organism, namely bacteria. And can also kill a small portion of those people who take it who are allergic to the medication. And it saves far, far more lives than it takes, and is therefore a beneficial medication in appropriate circumstances.
Chemotherapy is also poison. Its purpose is to destroy cancer. And it can sometimes kill a patient as well. But, like penicillin, it saves or helps more patients than it kills, and is therefore a beneficial medication in appropriate circumstances.
Chemo is Poison. So, Poison put into the body to kill a disease is the right way? And something created by nature is put aside because the FDA says so. Start thinking for yourself. I know someone that was on his death bed, that without doing the other besides strickly Chemo, he would be dead.
Gee! People sure are full of opinions and quick to Judgement. However, we are not in her or her sons shoes. She is scared and I am sure he is as well, her son. Maybe even more so. He should have the right to choose the treatment he wants. He is a person. Young, yes, but still the one that has this disease. Unfortunatley, drug companies have made loads of money off of illness. Do you really think they are as forth coming as you think?
Amazes me how we will believe that the only way is conventional medicine, but Nature is way out. come on!
Most seem to think that the mother and son duo are headed for Mexico for alternative treatment. But even some of those who practice alternative treatments feel that it has no real effect on cancer:
"Lise Alschuler recommends pulling from both medical approaches. Alschuler is the president of the Association of Naturopathic Practioners. She's also a naturopathic oncologist who practices in Arizona. She frequently recommends her cancer patients undergo conventional treatment along with the integrative medicine she prescribes. But she said some of her patients have decided to go to Mexico for treatment, and they do return feeling better, according to Alschuler.
"They are typically converting people to a really healthful, nutrient dense diet," Alschuler said. "But it's possible to feel well and have a cancer growing rapidly at the same time."
That's what happens with some of her patients, but not all.
"I've also had patients who have come back and have had some reduction with their tumors, even had a couple of patients who had significant reduction with their tumors," she said.
In all of her patients who visited clinics in Mexico, the tumors eventually returned, Alschuler said."
So all of her patients who received that alternative treatment in Mexico had tumors that eventually returned.
I hope they find the boy in time.

An estate agent is a person or business that arranges the selling, renting or management of properties, and other buildings, in the United Kingdom and Ireland. An agent that specialises in renting is often called a letting or management agent. Estate agents are mainly engaged in the marketing of property available for sale and a solicitor or licensed conveyancer is used to prepare the legal documents. In Scotland, however, many solicitors also act as estate agents, a practice that is rare in England and Wales.
It is customary in the United Kingdom and in Ireland to refer to real estate or real property simply as property.
The estate agent remains the current title for the person responsible for the management of one group of privately owned, all or mostly tenanted, properties under one ownership. Alternative titles are Factor, Steward or Bailiff depending on the era, the region and the extent of the property concerned.
The term originally referred to a person responsible for managing a landed estate, while those engaged in the buying and selling of homes were "House Agents", and those selling land were "Land Agents". However, in the 20th century, "Estate Agent" started to be used as a generic term, perhaps because it was thought to sound more impressive. Estate agent is roughly synonymous in the United States with the term real estate broker.

Overexpression of Snail is associated with lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis in patients with gastric cancer

BMC Cancer 2012, 12:521 doi:10.1186/1471-2407-12-521Published: 14 November 2012
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a significant role in tumor progression and invasion. Snail is a known regulator of EMT in various malignant tumors. This study investigated the role of Snail in gastric cancer.
We examined the effects of silenced or overexpressed Snail using lenti-viral constructs in gastric cancer cells. Immunohistochemical analysis of tissue microarrays from 314 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (GC) was used to determine Snail's clinicopathological and prognostic significance. Differential gene expression in 45 GC specimens with Snail overexpression was investigated using cDNA microarray analysis.
Silencing of Snail by shRNA decreased invasion and migration in GC cell lines. Conversely, Snail overexpression increased invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells, in line with increased VEGF and MMP11. Snail overexpression (≥75% positive nuclear staining) was also significantly associated with tumor progression (P < 0.001), lymph node metastases (P = 0.002), lymphovascular invasion (P = 0.002), and perineural invasion (P = 0.002) in the 314 GC patients, and with shorter survival (P = 0.023). cDNA microarray analysis revealed 213 differentially expressed genes in GC tissues with Snail overexpression, including genes related to metastasis and invasion.
Snail significantly affects invasiveness/migratory ability of GCs, and may also be used as a predictive biomarker for prognosis or aggressiveness of GCs.

I am making a travel case for a CD rack. The size is 18-1/2" W. x 18" H. x 6-1/2" deep. I want a flap with a lip to cover over the top, with a velcro strip on the lip for closure.
I purchased the fabric, lining, and heavy iron-on pellon. Here are my questions:
1. Should I cut separate pieces for top, back, bottom, sides and front? OR, should I wrap the fabric around and only have one seam (plus the flap for the top)?
2. Should the interfacing be cut the same size as the fabric, or cut smaller so that the seams are not bulky?
Any advice would be appreciated as I can't find anything online that would be helpful.
I have a sketch of what the cover should look like, if anyone wants me to send it to them. Thank you so much for your help!
1. It's your case, so it's up to what you like. If you're worried about making a pattern or something, the. You night want to opt for separate pieces, so you can match each piece to each side with confidence.
2. Yes, since you have fusible, I recommend cutting it shy of your seam allowances to reduce the bulk.
Have fun!

I'm 16 and my best friend, that happens to be a guy, is 25. We've never done anything sexual, and we don't plan to. The most we do is hold hands, and its like holding hands with my older brother. I'm just scared that someone will take that in the wrong way (as if we were dating) and my friends have told me that he could go to jail if someone reports him as my boyfriend or saying that something sexual is going on between us. I don't want him to get in trouble but I also don't want to lose my video game buddy.
I know about the age of consent, but does that mean I can't even hold hands in a public place with my best friend?

Lentol Claims Brooklyn Support (Updated)
Jan 29th - 1:37 pm
Assemblyman Carl Heastie's team is working overtime to make him look like the inevitable winner of the speaker's race, and while he is indeed perceived as the frontrunner at this point, his fellow contenders aren't quite ready to throw in the towel.
Assemblyman Joe Lentol, chair of the Assembly Codes Committee, sent out a statement this afternoon announcing that after speaking to his fellow Brooklynites, he has secured the "support of the delegation" to continue his effort to succeed Assemblyman Sheldon Silver.
Lentol didn't get into specifics – like exactly how many of the delegation's members have given him their assurance of support. (I assume he supports himself, so that's one certain vote). Also, he didn't mention Brooklyn Democratic Chairman Frank Seddio, who is himself a former member of the Assembly – much like Queens Democratic Chairman Joe Crowley, who is now a congressman).
A Democratic county chair who is supporting one of Lentol's rivals, Assemblyman Carl Heastie (chair of the Bronx Demoratic Party), told me last night that the Brooklyn Democrats were poised to annonuce their support of Heastie, who already counts his former opponent and fellow county chair (Manhattan) Assemblyman Keith Wright among his backers.
Maybe Lentol is trying to get out in front of that announcement? Unclear.
Also, we're expecting to hear something from Queens today. Crowley is back from his overseas travels with President Obama and called a noon meeting at party HQ of the borough's Assembly delegation to discuss the speaker race. Queens has 18 members who tend to vote in a block. There has been considerable speculation about where Crowley might land, but the safe money at this point is on Heastie – especially when you consider the fact that a sizable chunk of Crowley's own district is in the Bronx.
UPDATE: Well, minus one Brooklyn member for Lentol. Assemblyman Walter Mosley sent out a statement not long ago declaring his support for Heastie. Mosley, who was elected in 2012, identified himself in the statement as the second vice chair of the Black, Hispanic, Puerto Rican and Asian Legislative Caucus, which has some 30 members, and will be a significant force in the speaker's race – should its members decide to all unite behind one candidate.
Mosley also signed the reform caucus letter than went out earlier today. He was one of 23 members to do so.
"I am proud to endorse Assemblyman Carl Heastie for Speaker of the New York State Assembly," Mosley said. "I am confident that he will usher in reforms that will serve as a catalyst to make Albany work even better for New York."
"This legislative session is filled with difficult decisions and with Assemblyman Heastie's vision and leadership the Democratic conference will benefit exponentially. Carl has a history as a consensus builder and my colleagues need only look towards him to see that he is the diversity that is needed in Albany's leadership."
Ms. Malliotakis Goes to Washington
Jan 9th - 7:03 am
From today's Morning Memo:
GOP leaders in NY-11 may be coalescing behind Staten Island DA Dan Donovan to run in the yet-to-be-called special election to replace disgraced former Rep. Michael Grimm, but Assemblywoman Nicole Malliotakis isn't quite ready to throw in the towel.
Malliotakis, a Staten Island Republican, traveled to Washington yesterday to meet with NRCC leaders about her potential candidacy for the lone NYC seat in the GOP's column.
Her effort could be assisted by the fact that national party leaders reportedly aren't thrilled by the idea of having the guy best known as the DA in the Eric Garner case as their candidate – a move that would no doubt focus the election on the sticky issues of criminal justice reform and race relations.
NY1's Michael Scotto caught up with NRCC Chairman Greg Walden after his meeting with Malliotakis yesterday, and the Oregon Republican tried hard to maintain an air of neutrality.
Walden insisted both Donovan and Malliotakis are "very fine candidates" with "different strengths" who would "represent that district very effectively here in Washington."
"The long and short of it is that the people on Staten Island and Brooklyn will decide who the nominee is," Walden said. "Our job is to move forward from there and hold that seat."
"…I'm meeting with them as we do any candidates, but I know I don't have a vote. The Republicans on Staten Island do. I am really excited about both these individuals. They both bring different talents; they both bring very strong electoral capabilities."
Asked about the complication for Donovan's candidacy of the Garner case, in which the grand jury's decision not to bring charges against a white police officer for the chokehold-related death of an unarmed black man sparked protests and significant unrest in NYC, Walden said:
"I think if Republicans pick Dan Donovan then he will have an opportunity to go explain in further detail his side of the story there certainly that perhaps he hasn't had a chance to do."
"But the long and the short of it is we have a good opportunity to hold that seat, and I'm excited going forward."
Malliotakis was also playing her cards close to the vest, telling Scotto that she had a "very good, pleasant, productive conversation" with Walden.
"We'll go through the process and see where it ends up," the assemblywoman said. "We're not going to discuss any of the particulars of the meetings. We're going to keep it private. We're just talking about the landscape of the district."
Malliotakis said she's "encouraged" by the grassroots support she has been receiving.
Yesterday, Brooklyn GOP Chairman Craig Eaton released a statement announcing that the majority of his party's leaders had signaled support for Malliotakis' candidacy during a recent informal meeting.
Eaton said he will wait until Gov. Andrew Cuomo calls a special election in NY-11 (something the governor has shown no signs of doing any time soon), and then convene a convention of county committee members to which all potential candidates will be invited to make their respective cases.
"I will then bind myself to their vote and deliver same at my meeting with (Staten Island GOP Chair John) Antoniello at the lawfully appointed time," Eaton said.
"In the very end, my committee and I will support the candidate selected through this process and work diligently to ensure that he or she is victorious in the election."
But the reality is that Brooklyn will have a very small say in the candidate selection process, since only a sliver of the borough in included in the district, which contains all of Staten Island.
Antoniello has announced his support for Donovan. But Malliotakis said she's hopeful Staten Island GOP officials will follow the lead of their counterparts in Brooklyn and hold a convention to select a candidate.
"All we're asking for is an open and transparent process where the rank-and-file members can be heard, she said.
While the Republicans are holding a very public battle over who they'll select to run in Grimm's stead, the Democrats have been fairly quiet.
The potential candidates getting mentioned most on that side include former Rep. Michael McMahon, whom Grimm defeated in 2010, and Assemblyman Michael Cusick.
Brooklyn Among 3 Finalists For DNC
Nov 24th - 2:17 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Brooklyn
Brooklyn is among the finalists for holding the 2016 Democratic National Convention, Democratic Party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced today in an email to supporters.
Also among the finalists is Columbus, Ohio and Philadelphia.
Elected officials in New York — especially those from Brooklyn — have lobbied heavily in favor of holding the convention there, where former New York Sen. Hillary Clinton is expected to emerge as the nominee of the party.
"We're thrilled to move to the next step of the selection process to determine where Democrats will come together to nominate the 45th President of the United States," said Wasserman Schultz in a statement. "We are fortunate to have such a diverse and vibrant group of cities interested in hosting this special event and we thank Phoenix and Birmingham for showcasing their special communities. We look forward to working with Columbus, New York, and Philadelphia as we go forward."
Meanwhile, potential weeks for the convention include July 18, July 25, and August 22.
The last time New York City hosted a national convention was with the Republicans in 2004, held at Madison Square Garden.
Labor-Dem-WFP Coalition Targets Sen. Golden (Updated)
Jun 6th - 2:55 pm
The coalition created out of the Working Families Party convention to flip the state Senate into Democratic hands is quickly putting together its list of seats to target and/or protect, and apparently one of just two remaining Republican senators representing New York City is in its crosshairs.
According to a source familiar with the coalition's plans, Sen. Marty Golden, of Brooklyn, will be a top target this fall. Democratic NYC Councilman Vincent Gentile's name is being floated as a potential challenger to Golden, who is himself a former councilman. Golden, who worked for the NYPD for 10 years before launching his politial career, was first elected to the Senate in 2002.
There's a long and not terribly friendly history between Gentile and Golden.
Gentile once held Golden's seat, which he won in 1996, capitalizing on internal divisions in the Republican party to win a three-way race in what was then SD-23. Golden defeated Gentile in 2002 with the help of nearly $4 million from the Senate GOP, and Gentile, who spent about half a million dollars on his Senate campaign, subsequently won a special election for the NYC Council seat Golden vacated to move up to the Senate.
Effectively, the two swapped jobs.
Today, Golden's Brooklyn district (the 22nd SD) has an overwhelming Democratic enrollment edge – 78,165 to 33,343 Republicans, according to the state Board of Elections. Yet the Democrats have so far been unable to unseat the outspoken and often colorful senator from his seat.
Two years ago, Golden's Democratic challenger, Andrew Gounardes, lost to Golden, 57 percent to 43 percent, but performed surprisingly well in Golden's home turf of Bay Ridge. Since then, however, Gounardes has accepted a job with Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams (a former Senate Democrat), and he would have to give up the job if he wanted to pursue a re-match run against the GOP senator.
Also worth noting: Golden was a close ally of former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg, who used his considerable wealth to bolster the Senate GOP's coffers while he was in office. Now that Bloomberg is gone, the Republicans have lost their most prominent individual contributor.
Senate GOP spokesman Scott Reif emailed the following statement in response to the news that Golden is yet again a target for the Democrats:
"Another year, another boast from Senate Democrats about this being the year they're going to take out Marty Golden. Excuse us if we've heard this one before. Regardless of who the Democrats decide to put up this time, Senator Golden is going to be reelected because he keeps delivering for the hardworking residents of Brooklyn."
UPDATE: The coalition source called back in response to Reif's comment, noting that there are thousands of union members living in Golden's district whose organizations have never before been uited against him, and prepared to urge them all to work – and vote – against him. Also, according to this source, some $1 million has been earmarked by the coalition to assist Gentile (or whoever the Democratic opponent ends up being) in his quest to unseat Golden.
De Blasio Pitches Brooklyn For Democratic Convention
Jun 6th - 2:54 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Brooklyn
As first reported by The New York Times this afternoon, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is pitching his home borough of Brooklyn to host the 2016 Democratic National Convention.
In a letter to DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, de Blasio says Brooklyn's Barclays Center would be the principle venue for the event.
New York last hosted a national political convention in 2004, when Republicans re-nominated President George W. Bush.
But now, with a liberal populist resurgency embodied by de Blasio, New York City — and Brooklyn in particular — could be a way for Democrats nationally to showcase that.
Of course, New York resident Hillary Clinton may very well be the candidate for Democrats in 2016.
Felder Maintains 'Go With Majority' Stance
May 29th - 2:04 pm
Posted by Liz Benjamin in Brooklyn
With all the talk of Gov. Andrew Cuomo potentially pushing to reunify the IDC and so-called "regular" Democrats as payback for the Republicans' refusal to support a statewide public campaign finance system, I thought it would be worth checking it with the lone Democrat who is actually conferencing with the GOP: Brooklyn Sen. Simcha Felder.
"Nothing has changed," the senator told me during a brief telephone interview this afternoon. "I'm interested in doing everything I can to make sure my constituents get all the services they need and deserve. That was my original position. It's not about the governor. It's not about the IDC. It's not about anyone other than my constituents. I care only about them."
So, does that mean that Felder would return to the Democratic fold if the Republican-IDC coalition fell apart? In a word: "Yes."
As you'll recall, Felder, a former NYC councilman, announced shortly after winning his seat in 2012 that he would be caucusing with the Republicans, despite the that he had run as a Democrat and had no intention of changing his party affiliation.
At the time, Felder made it clear that he would sit with whichever conference that would enable him to do more for his constituents – in other words, whoever could provide the most in terms of resources and service-delivery power would be getting his vote.
Just over one month later, the breakaway IDC announced its historic power-sharing deal with the GOP (plus Felder), which enabled the Republicans to retain a slim hold on the majority.
In return for his decision, Felder got to chair a brand new subcommittee on NYC education that was created by the Republicans just for him. And he generally has been a reliable vote for the GOP ever since.
This year, however, Felder experienced a significant policy loss when GOP Leader Dean Skelos failed to cut a deal on an education tax credit that would have given religious schools a much-needed boost. Felder took some heat for this, but he says he believes that of all the leaders involved in the budget negotiations this spring, the Senate Republicans "certainly made the best effort" to get the tax credit done.
Cuomo is now being criticized for failing to keep his word – according to Catholic leaders – on the tax credit. Supporters had hoped that it would end up part of a grand deal along with public campaign finance and changes to the teacher performanmce evaluation system, but so far, that hadn't materialized.
I asked Felder if he felt the loss of the tax credit would encourage him to leave the GOP conference and return to the regular Democrats (who, by the way, once wanted him to be thrown out of the party, thanks to his willingness to sit with the Republicans), and he replied:
"There were a lot of people that – at best – did not do what they should have to make sure that that got passed, and in Albany, it takes three to tango. (Actually, these days, four)."
"…At the end of the day, I'm repeating myself, but party really makes no difference to me. If I was in a different district, I wouldn't have the liberty to be such an independent person. I have, thank God, the benefit of being beholden only to my constituents and God, so I'm able to make decisions that relate to ensuring constituents get what they need without the impact of party politics."
Recchia Lands 2nd Union Nod From RWDSU
May 20th - 12:06 pm
Posted by Liz Benjamin in Brooklyn
Former NYC Councilman Domenic Recchia's campaign is poised to announce that the Brooklyn Democrat has landed his second union endorsement from RWDSU for his bid to unseat Staten Island Republican Rep. Michael Grimm.
"Throughout his many years of public service, Domenic Recchia has stood with New York's working families," said RWDSU President Stuart Appelbaum. "As a New York City Council Member, Domenic not only fought for the people of his district, but also advocated on behalf of working families in every borough."
"We need a congressman who will stand with low wage workers and all working people. Domenic Recchia will bring the voice of working families in Staten Island and South Brooklyn to our nation's capital. We are proud to endorse him."
John Durso, president of Local 338 RWDSU, added:
"We have seen first-hand Domenic's commitment to all of New York City's working families As a City Councilman he fought for legislation to protect workers' rights while also working to create new jobs. We are confident that Domenic will continue to be a great champion as the next Congressman of the 11th District, and he will help change the Republican-caused gridlock in Washington, D.C."
This isn't terribly surprising. Two years ago, RWDSU endorsed Mark Murphy, the Democrat who unsuccessfully sought to oust Grimm in a high Democratic turnout, presidential election year.
The NY-11 race has heated up since Grimm was indicted on 20 counts of fraud and tax evasion. Grimm, who is out on $400,000 bond, made his first court appearance yesterday, and it appears this case is not going to be speedily resolved (as he had hoped) before the midterm elections, in which the scandal-scarred congressman continues to run.
The charges are in connection to an Upper East Side health food restaurant that the congressman owned and operated prior to his 2010 election to the House. The government has accused Grimm of filing false tax returns, committing mail fraud and withholding more than $1 million worth of taxes.
The case stems from an ongoing federal investigation into Grimm's fundraising which has lasted about two years. Also, the House Ethics Committee announced in November that Grimm was under investigation for possible campaign finance violations.
Part of the problem in terms of timing is that it's going to take a considerable amount of time for attorneys to review the 70,000 pages of documents and 8,000 emails that government prosecutors are using as evidence against Grimm.
The congressman has insisted he is innocent, and has called the charges against him a "political witch hunt" designed to "assassinate my character and remove me from office." He did, however, resign from his seat on the House Financial Services Committee in late April at the urging of Speaker John Boehner.
Grimm Secures Independence Party Nod, Clashes with Mayor
Mar 3rd - 7:00 pm
Posted by Courtney Gross in Brooklyn
If you are looking to get in the ring with Rep. Michael Grimm, he says you should "pack a lunch."
My advice might be make that "lunch" heavy on the carbs — something good for endurance — because the race for New York's 11th congressional district will probably be a marathon.
Case in point: A day following the annual Staten Island St. Patrick's Day Parade, Grimm announced he had secured the endorsement of the state's Independence Party. This could provide a crucial third party line for the Republican come November. The congressman is expected to begin petitioning for signatures to get on the ballot this week.
Meanwhile, former Councilman Domenic Recchia, Grimm's Democratic challenger, was backed up, once again, by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. Recchia was picked for its "Red to Blue" program today. A spokeswoman tells us that means the Brooklynite will not only get more money from the DCCC, but would get strategic support in the field. It's yet another example of how this race will draw attention from across the country for the next eight months.
And it's race that will likely focus on Grimm — from a federal fundraising probe to threatening a NY1 reporter. His flood insurance bill — a piece of legislation he has touted on the campaign trail — is expected to come to a vote this week.
The congressman has, in fact, often brought up his record of "fighting for victims" of Hurricane Sandy when asked about his re-election prospects.
It's a topic that has already put him at odds with the new mayor. Last week, Grimm was asked about Mayor de Blasio, and the Republican went on the attack. Grimm said the mayor was not ready for "prime-time."
"He has to make the Sandy victims, especially on Staten Island, in the Rockaways, where we got crushed, he has to make that a priority and he hasn't done so so far," Grimm told Geraldo Rivera last week. The comments came two days after Grimm was a no-show at a Sandy-related meeting on the rock with the new mayor.
Today, de Blasio was asked about Grimm and that meeting, and his response appears to deflect any blame: More >
Mark Weprin's New Opponent, Running on Community Safety Act
Aug 8th - 8:51 pm
Posted by Courtney Gross in 2013
The detectives and captains' unions had endorsed Mark Weprin's re-election bid.
Had is the operative word here.
That was before he voted for the community safety act. And it was before he got a new opponent: former cop Joe Concannon.
"The question I have for Councilman Mark Weprin… is why does Weprin lie?" asked Michael Palladino, the head of the detectives union, on the steps of City Hall this afternoon. "He told us he would not support it… He gained our endorsement under false pretences."
He summed up his thoughts like this: "He is more concerned about bettering his political career than his constituents."
Both the captains' union and the detectives' union backed Concannon today instead, tossing out whatever support they had of Weprin. They were joined by the PBA and the Lieutenants Benevolent Association.
Concannon does not support the community safety act, which would create an independent inspector general to oversee the NYPD. It also allows New Yorkers to sue for biased-based profiling in state court.
"I can assure you I will never risk the safety and the security of one New York City citizen at any time at all — no matter who comes to my desk and no matter who tries to pander to get into higher elected office," Concannon said.
Concannon and several union officials accused Weprin of voting for the community safety act to win over votes for a potential run for speaker.
We caught up with Weprin this afternoon to chat about all of this. Here is what he said:
Not everyone agrees on every issue. You are always going to have issues that people don't agree with how you vote. But I work very hard on behalf of my constituents. And I think they know that… this is an issue where I think the stop and frisk policy needs to be reformed.
He said the unions' arguments are unsubstantiated. And he also wouldn't bite when it comes to his pursuit of the speakership. He said he would answer those questions after the general election.
Concannon was thought to have been courted by the Bloomberg administration to run for City Council — part of the mayor's attack on the community safety act. When asked about that on Thursday, Concannon said this:
A: I have been speaking to Mayor Bloomberg for a number of years since I have been seeking political office. The Bloomberg administration and my campaign are lockstep as far as this issue is concerned. Other than that we are not going to discuss campaign strategy."
Q: Did he ask you to run?
A: I am not going to get into campaign strategy.
Q: But you were talking to him?
A: We've been talking to a lot of people.
Concannon is running on the "reform" party line. He is in the process of collecting petitions.
Et Tu, Shirley?
May 6th - 12:21 pm
Posted by Liz Benjamin in Albany
ICYMI, this was today's morning memo:
Et Tu, Shirley?
Since the revelation that former Bronx Assemblyman Nelson Castro had been working as a double agent for federal prosecutors for almost the entire duration of his four years in office, the most popular political parlor game in Albany has been trying to guess who else might be wearing a wire.
Queens Assemblyman David Weprin even joked to the New York Times that it had become de rigueur upon meeting colleagues to "feel them up and down" – in a joking sort of way, of course.
Little did he know.
Last week, we learned Castro was not alone in his undercover activities. Former state Sen. Shirley Huntley, also of Queens, had also been working for the feds after discovering she would be slapped with corruption charges.
It looks like prosecutors hit pay dirt with Huntley – netting a much bigger fish than the one Castro managed to reel in (freshman Assemblyman Eric Stevenson, who is scheduled to be indicted in federal court today).
Former Minority Leader John Sampson turned himself in this morning to the FBI to face corruption charges in connection with a bribery deal that also involved Huntley and his own embezzlement of some $440,000 from the foreclosure sales of four Brooklyn properties for which he was the court-appointed referee.
Court documents reveal that Huntley, who pleaded guilty to corruption charges in January, recorded meetings with nine different people, seven of whom were elected officials and two others who had previously worked as a consultant or staff member to a public official.
It turns out that Sampson is the lawmaker identified in those documents as "Senator #1," who sought help from Huntley for a businessman who was offering bribes in exchange for help to expand his business at Kennedy International Airport, which is in Huntley's district.
Sampson set up a meeting between Huntley and the businessman, and Huntley subsequently contacted airport authorities on his behalf over the next two months, receiving $1,000 for her efforts. The money was ill spent, however, because despite the bribe, the businessman did not receive a lease for additional space from the Port Authority.
This is not the only incident involving Sampson that has caught the interest of federal investigators. They're also reportedly looking into the Brooklyn Democrat's relationship with Edul Ahmad, a Queens real estate broker whom Sampson represented as a client through his legal practice.
Ahmad pleaded guilty in federal court in October to a mortgage fraud scheme and has been the focus of a loan scandal involving Queens Rep. Gregory Meeks.
It's ironic that Huntley is the one to take Sampson down. Back in 2010, he defended her against LGBT advocates who were furious that he agreed to support her and other Democrats who voted "no" on the gay marriage bill.
At the time, Huntley was facing a primary challenge from gay-marriage supporter Lynn Nunes. Sampson gave Huntley $9,500 from his own campaign cash and tried unsuccessfully to prevent the Empire State Pride Agenda, New York's largest LGBT organization, from endorsing Nunes.
Nunes was not successful at ousting Huntley in the September primary. She won roughly 70 percent of the vote in that race.
Unlike with Castro, whom the feds allowed to stand for election three times, knowing all the while he was 1) a crook, and 2) splitting his time between representing his constituents and trying to catch fellow crooked colleagues in the act; Huntley only ran for re-election once, and was defeated in a primary by former NYC Councilman-turned-Sen. James Sanders.
It's unclear if there will be more charges stemming from Huntley's work on behalf of the US attorney's office, but most observers agree this is just the tip of the iceberg.
It's certainly bad news for the Senate Democrats, who have been trying to argue since last year's elections that they are no longer the dysfunctional and trouble-ridden conference of the past.
And it's especially bad news for those who are close to Sampson and might have something to hide. Sen. Malcolm Smith, the Queens Democrat who replaced Sampson as conference leader during the infamous 2009 coup, is battling his own corruption charges.
But there are one or two others – elected officials and former Senate staffers – who must be pretty darn concerned these days.

Sharing the washing up, three date nights a month and saying 'I love you' before bed have been revealed as the secret ingredients to the perfect relationship.
Admitting you are wrong after an argument bagged the No.1 spot in a top 20 list, while sex twice a week, and a three and a half year age gap are also signs of a lasting liaison.
The survey was created for the launch of the Two Together Railcard, which saves passengers a third off rail travel when they travel together - it studied 2,000 people and the results were pretty fascinating.
And being in a relationship is not cheap either!
Monthly romantic meals, and two weekend breaks a year are amongst the essentials.
Spokesman Andrew Robertson said: "It's encouraging that today's perfect relationship is based on simple things such as meals out, travelling together to new places, daily kisses and telling each other 'I love you' before going to sleep."
Interestingly, three quarters of the adults polled said marriage wasn't essential for the perfect relationship.
Meanwhile, bad driving and rows over money were listed as top argument-starters.

Selena Gomez Shares Flight With Lucky Fan, Gives Her Concert Tickets [PHOTOS]
Imagine being a Selena Gomez fan and sharing the same airplane flight as her. Cool, right? Oh, it gets cooler...
Imagine being a Selena Gomez fan and sharing the same airplane flight as her. Cool, right? Oh, it gets cooler...
The 2013 Teen Choice Awards were full of twerking and sexy R&B serenading... but who took home surfboards?
Move over, Jay Z. Selena Gomez and her 'Stars' danced its way into the No. 1 slot on the Billboard Top 200, knocking The Hov out of the top slot.
Sel scored her very first chart-topping album with 'Stars Dance,' which released the day after her 21st birthday, capping off a celebratory and busy week that saw the singer partying and promoting.
Selena Gomez is at the top of her game right now, with 'Stars Dance' on track to land at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart next week. She's pretty much everywhere and in a new revealing interview, she reconfirms that she is not with Justin Bieber, but also reveals their continued connection and why the media continues to capture photos of them together. She also explains why she keeps her faith private and why she is stoked about being a big sis, despite a two-decade age gap between herself and her baby sis.
Selena Gomez may have a largely sweet image, but she is also a pro who does not take BS from interviewers.
Selena Gomez literally just turned 21 and she is already partying like an old pro! The 'Come & Get It' songstress was first spotted at Julianne Hough's '20s-themed, 25th birthday bash on Saturday night with actress Lily Collins. Then, Gomez and Collins headed to the Roosevelt Hotel for her own birthday festivities!
Selena Gomez sat down --and stood up to play ping pong and Connect Four-- with Ryan Seacrest for the 'Ryan Seacrest With Selena Gomez' interview special on E! tonight (July 21). We learned quite a bit about Sel during their chat, like the status of her relationship with Justin Bieber.
We're in the thick of summer with the sun at its hottest, but even so, our favorite fashionable celebs are still turning up for events looking flawless and like they never break a sweat. This week's winners were Selena Gomez, who was ravishing in red at the ESPYs, as well as Malin Akerman, who was bold in blue -- but sadly, the lovely Vera Farmiga overdid it with a billowy black gown.
Here are the best and worst looks of the week.
Like most of us, Selena Gomez finds Bradley Cooper mesmerizing.
Also like most of us, Gomez finds Justin Bieber pretty distressing. Unlike most of us, though, Gomez still shacks up with and uses Bieber for publicity, so whose fault is that?
In the summer, few colors are as glorious as white -- and loose, flowy white tops that show a little tummy are sexy and cool, as Gwen Stefani and Selena Gomez have demonstrated with recent outfits.
It's an easy trend that anyone can wear, even devotees of black. Skin-showing is not required, but it's always a sexy detail. Whatever the shape or the cut, a loose white top will never go out of style.
Selena Gomez knows that the world is watching her.
The 'Come + Get It' singer, as a result, is guarded and careful when she speaks to press -- or anyone. In a new interview to promote 'Stars Dance,' she dished on Justin Bieber and her prior relationships, but she was super careful not to mention anyone by name (aside from her BFFs Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato) ... because she knows the whole world is paying attention.
With the Jelena reunion in full swing, it only makes sense for Justin Bieber to dedicate some songs to his lady love, Selena Gomez — and supposedly, that's exactly what he did.
Rumor has it that the Biebs wrote a bunch of new tunes for his 'Come & Get It' lady love and we'll get to hear them all when his upcoming album drops.

There are eight artists/bands called Outrage in chronological order. (1) In 1982, Yosuke Abe (guitar), Yoshihiro Yasui (bass), Shinya Tange (drums) and Kazutoyo Ito (vocals) got together in Nagoya to form the band OUTRAGE. Playing in the club circuit of Nagoya they mainly did covers of NWOBH. In 1986, with the departure of Ito, Naoki Hashimoto joined thus solidifying the first line up. In 1987, their self titled debut mini-album was released from their self owned label.

First off, nothing but comliments on nexgen. In searching for answers to the questions I'm about to ask, it blows my mind how many people would bash nexgen. Obviously, that brings up the old issue of why use it if you hate it so much. I offer nothing but cuddos for the work.
Now, a couple of things:
First, is the WIP release supposed to have any audio? In the 0.95 release, when you change your selections, you would hear the little noise (and in the games and applications menu, my whole block would here the noise). With the WIP, nothing. Games and applications play sound fine, but I was just wondering if there was supposed to be anthing now.
Second, some of the settings dont seem to do anything, and mostly I'm curious if thats just where it is at in the development cycle, or is my install just being dumb? Specifically, the HDTV and the SPDIF ones.
Third, and this dosnt really belong here (but who knows if anyone is going to read this or not), in the old 0.95 release, the settings menu had the ability to reboot and shutdown (I think) the system from there. That would be a nice added feature, but hey, I'm not even posting it in the feature requests section, so who cares.
As I said before, cuddos on the work. There are so many alternatives, I can either use nexgen and look over some of the idiosyncrasies, or use something else and stop bitching. Thanks.

Gulf Keystone Rises as Oil Directors Set Rewards for Sale
Gulf Keystone Petroleum Ltd., an oil explorer active in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, rose in London after saying some employees would get shares valued at about 26 million pounds ($41 million) if the producer is sold.
The company climbed 4.7 percent to 263.5 pence, valuing the company at 2.3 billion pounds, after saying today it would issue 10 million new shares to be awarded to staff in the event of a sale of at least half of the company or its assets. Chief Executive Officer Todd Kozel would get 300,000 shares in a so-called exit event, it said in a statement.
Gulf Keystone discovered as much as 10 billion barrels of oil in the Shaikan field in northern Iraq, a region that has drawn increasing interest from producers. Exxon Mobil Corp. last year became the biggest company to join the hunt for oil and gas in Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdish region, home to about 40 percent of the country's estimated 115 billion barrels of reserves.
Gulf Keystone "have a multibillion barrel field which will require a big investment," said Dougie Youngson, an analyst at Seymour Pierce Ltd. in London. "That means there will likely be some sort of transaction. This year's all about shoring up the asset base, a sale is more likely next year."
The company also said as many as 10 million shares would be awarded over the next three years in the form of bonuses.

In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Miami, Florida (PRWEB) November 19, 2013
This month, Modern Luxury's Miami Magazine features a public statement from the founder of The Maercks Institute Miami. Dr. Rian A. Maercks, renowned artist of plastic surgery, states "I don't want to be your plastic surgeon." The statement reflects Dr. Maercks' dedication and commitment to the art of medicine, surgery and aesthetics and to his patients best interests.
Dr. Maercks originally trained in fine arts and philosophy before deciding on medical training. Thus it was through the eyes of an artist and the mind of a philosopher that he approached training. An inventive spirit from the start, Maercks had devised new approaches to the array of plastic surgery specialties early in his career. After pursuing elite training from masters across the globe, Dr. Maercks returned home to Miami to develop what would become one of the most unique plastic surgery practices to exist.
In the international community Maercks was an instant sensation. To date a significant percentage of Dr. Maercks' practice arrives from Western Europe, Asia, Central and South America and Canada. Maercks' loved techniques and principles are so contra-culture to conventional plastic surgery, a solo private practice was the only option for this "outside the box" thinker. Maercks founded The Maercks Institute, now an international buzz word, as a home for his revolutionary practice.
Dr. Maercks' seemingly surprising statement this month is a sort of call to attention for domestic patients to learn of the options he offers. Dr. Maercks commented "I am not everyone's plastic surgeon, however for those with compatible aesthetic ideals, I believe that I deliver results that are unparalleled." Dr. Maercks is certainly not the surgeon to seek out for exaggerated facial features or "augmented looking" breasts even though these features seem to be desired by most of the population. Dr. Maer

Oklahoma fans willing to make the long trip to El Paso, Texas, for the Sooners' 2012 season opener can purchases tickets beginning Saturday morning, UTEP's athletic department announced Friday night.
Oklahoma football: UTEP to begin selling tickets to its opener vs. Sooners
Tickets will be made available at 11 a.m. (Oklahoma time) central time and can be purchased online at TicketMaster.com, or through the university's ticket center by calling (915) 747-5234. The ticket center is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
Ticket prices are $25 for general admission, $35 for bronze reserved, $60 for silver reserved and $70 for gold reserved.
Friday's announcement bumped the date up by two days; UTEP had originally planned to make single-game tickets to its first five home games available Monday.
Senior Jesse Paulsen earned a scholarship at defensive back, but the news for Paulsen doesn't end there. Tony Jefferson said Paulsen's the No. 2 guy behind him. The Albuquerque, N.M., native played in 13 games during the last two seasons for the Sooners.
"Jesse is a hard player," Jefferson said. "Many people don't' know, but he works hard. We had him on special teams last year, and he stepped up in the scrimmage and was making plays."
Last season's lingering disappointment (at least by OU's standards) still eats at senior defensive end R.J. Washington.
"It wasn't even that we lost three games, it was how we lost them and what we were doing," a reflective Washington said Friday afternoon. "Missing class and little things where it's like, if we could have just been a little more disciplined, if we had gone out to practice with a little more enthusiasm, focused a little bit more... We are grown enough to look back and reflect on it and just say, 'I'm tired of the 'What ifs?'"
