About ARP Bolts
ARP Head Stud Kit U/C Toyota Supra 7MGTE 87-92
It is for good reason that virtually every top professional engine builder relies on ARP Pro Series head studs for their all-out competition powerplants. Simply stated, there��_s not a better stud setup on the market today. For openers, ARP uses a premium grade 8740 alloy that is rated far superior to "aircraft" quality. Then, each stud is placed vertically in special racks and precisely heat-treated to 200,000 psi. This procedure ensures complete heat penetration and the results are far superior to those lesser quality studs from other manufacturers who just dump pieces in a basket and hope for the best.
Following heat-treat, each stud is centerless ground to make it as close to perfectly concentric as possible. This procedure involves about ten very slight cuts and results in an exceptionally straight part. It��_s important to note that lesser quality studs are not even centerless ground - the material is thread rolled in bar stock form (mostly before heat-treat, when the material is easier to machine). Because ARP studs are manufactured to such exacting tolerances, you will note that gaskets and cylinder heads literally glide into position and are perfectly aligned - something that won��_t happen with inferior quality head studs.
ARP studs are thread rolled after heat-treat, which gives them about 1000% (that��_s ten times) better fatigue strength than those studs that are threaded prior to heat-treat (a very common industry practice). It costs a lot more to do it this way, because it��_s tough on tooling, but the results are well worth the extra effort. You will also note that ARP offers specially undercut studs for several engines. This procedure (done only to the shorter studs) more equalizes the "stretch" of both studs, which makes for a more consistent clamping force - and one that compensates for head gasket compression when the cylinder heads are installed. This helps prevent blown head gaskets, and assures optimum engine sealing!
Premium quality heat-treated 8740 chrome moly steel head stud kits are available for most every domestic and import applications. You won��_t find a better quality stud on the market from any other source. Look for ARP stamped on each stud as your assurance of quality. Clearly, they are the best on the market today, and the favorite of leading professional engine builders in all forms of racing.

SAN JOSE, Calif. AND CAMBRIDGE, UK – Apr. 22, 2003 - Aptix Corporation, a leading supplier of pre-silicon prototyping tools and platforms for embedded system-on-chip (SoC) design, and ARM, [(LSE: ARM); (Nasdaq: ARMHY)], the industry's leading provider of 16/32-bit embedded RISC processor solutions, today announced at Embedded Systems Conference, San Francisco, that Aptix has joined the ARM® PrimeXsys™ Community Program. In addition, the two companies have signed an agreement to further the adoption of the ARM PrimeXsys Platform through the development and demonstration of pre-silicon prototyping. ARM will use Aptix Software Integration Station™ products in its sales offices worldwide to demonstrate the functionality of design data and hardware for PrimeXsys Platform designs. Aptix will also be able to demonstrate the solution to its current and potential customers.
The combination of technologies will enable designers of complex ASIC/SoC design incorporating the PrimeXsys Platform IP to develop full system prototypes in a faster, more efficient way.
"The ARM PrimeXsys Platform is extremely popular with our customers because it provides system developers with a suite of pre-validated software and verification IP," said Dr. Amr Mohsen, chairman and CEO, Aptix. "We have previously worked with ARM to support mutual customers on several design projects. This agreement will let us provide a higher level of integrated support to our mutual customers."
Using Aptix System Explorer™, engineers can build a complete pre-silicon prototype of their PrimeXsys Platform-based design, integrate other IP, run their selected operating system and application software, and validate their design under real-world conditions—all before any silicon is available. Then, multiple development platforms can be delivered to software engineers using the Aptix Software Integration Station™ or custom printed circuit boards created with Aptix Prototype Studio/PCB.
"ARM and Aptix have a common base of customers that have already created pre-silicon prototypes of their PrimeXsys Platform-based designs using Aptix products," said John Rayfield, VP, US Marketing, ARM. "Our partnership with Aptix will now enable developers to create prototypes more quickly and efficiently, giving them more time to develop their embedded application software before actual silicon of their SoC design is available. This is another example of the PrimeXsys Community Program creating additional value for the licensees of PrimeXsys Platforms."
The PrimeXsys Platform is based around the ARM926EJ-S™ microprocessor core, which incorporates ARM Jazelle® technology for Java acceleration, a multi-layer AMBA™ bus and PrimeCell® peripherals.
The new solution will be available from Aptix from the end of April 2003.

Winter Denim Coat
Added Nov 24, 2013
Perth, Australia
Love the look of this coat, but left out the pleating on the shoulders, wanted a more earthen look with this fabric. Please see my blog sewrmaciwi.wordpress.com for other info. Sizing was quite big, I'm more like a 14-16 Australian size. Had to take in the smallest pattern size quite a bit, kept trying it on to get a better fit. The collar really makes it, as does the leather straps at the front. The cut of this pattern is very good, the shaping of the pattern pieces are excellent. The overall fit and comfort is very good.
Material Notes
Marcy Tilton stretch denim with 'worn' woven design. Fully lined. Leather straps and buckles for front closure and back tab. Chinese brocade (synthetic) for the pockets and back tab, used iron on facing to get the gathering to press flat on the pockets and back tab.

There are still some equity bears and others who see recent equity rallies as unsustainable or ill-founded. Some, like John Hussman, seem to have allowed discretionary interpretations of economic data to lead them to wrong conclusions. Others, like ECRI's Lakshman Achuthan, made recession calls in spite of insufficient or even contrary data. In addition to widely followed economic data confirming the recovery (non-farm payrolls, PMI, etc.), markets have also continued to normalize. In previous articles over the last several months, we've shown how index implied volatility, cross-asset correlation, volatility skew, and other metrics provide evidence of normalization. Here are some more reasons to be optimistic.
1. FX volatility is pushing toward new lows - I sat down with Jill recently to talk about the fact that G10 FX implied volatility isn't just back to pre-crisis levels; ex-yen, it's actually pushing toward the low end of the range from the early 2000s. Overall that's a good sign for investors.
2. Equity implied volatility has more room to fall, too. In a recent market overview, "The Death of Volatility," Colin Bennett and Miguel A. Gil at Santander make the case that there are several structural and cyclical reasons why equity volatility should decline in 2013. Some familiar catalysts include:
- Lower leverage due to regulation and structural changes.
- 'Ice age' of low yields likely to weigh on volatility in 2013.
- Tail risks gone as all sovereigns are on road to reform.
- QE backstop to prevent significant equity declines and increases in volatility
- Market is used to sovereign crisis, needs a new crisis for volatility.
3. Fat tails keep getting slimmer and slimmer. One of the interesting features they note about recent market action is that for stocks, kurtosis (the fourth moment of the distribution) is at levels not seen since Lehman went bankrupt: "This analysis shows that 14% of volatility is due to jumps. As we believe equity markets are becoming less jumpy, this could weigh on future volatility. Kurtosis (4th moment) is a measure of how 'fat' the tails are (a measure of the likelihood of extreme movements). Recently, kurtosis has fallen to lows not seen since the Lehman bankruptcy."
Fat tails and frequent jumps make investors nervous; smoother, steadier markets build confidence. Even if stocks take a pause here or we see a period this year of sideways trading and weaker earnings, as long as the tails of the return distribution remain small, more investors should return to the market.

text: The first time I saw Slow Magic was in London, waiting around for XXYYXX to start his set. I had gotten there early for the sole reason of getting a good spot in the front, not because I wanted to see the opening act. However the moment the lights dimmed, the movie started playing, and Slow Magic jumped out onto the set with his multicolored flashing mask, I forgot everything about XXYYXX and witnessed one of the best live shows Ive ever seen. However apart from his performances, Slow Magic also makes some solid music. The two best words to describe this music is synthy, and organic. Slow Magic creates futuristic, pop influenced synth melodies, but also grounds it at the same time with tribal sampling and jungle drums. This combination is a welcome break from the generic dream pop of Purity Ring fame. Feel Flows is a good example of this organic synth fusion, while Corvette Cassette lies more on the pop side with a happy uplifting beat. Either way, you can't go wrong with this album, so pick it up, enjoy and let the magic slowly wash over you.

April 23, 2013
PRINCESS ANNE, Md. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore athletics program saw five programs in action last week and play was highlighted by the bowling team, who won the USBC Championships in Lincoln, Neb. The women's track team finished third at the Morgan Legacy meet, while the men's team was sixth. The softball team was winless in five games and baseball fell in four contests.
The baseball team went 0-4 last week with three Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference losses.
Despite multi-hit contests by junior Jeffrey Fleetwood (Delmar, Del.) and junior Stephen Bull (Millsboro, Del.), UMES fell to Navy 13-2 on Tuesday at Hawks Stadium. Fleetwood reached base three times on Tuesday, going 2-for-3 with a walk and a run. Bull earned the first two hits of the game for the Hawks, finishing 2-for-4 in the contest.
UMES played close to the MEAC Northern Division leader but was defeated in each part of the Saturday doubleheader, falling 7-3 in game one and 7-4 in the second contest. Senior Tre-von Johnson (East New Market, Md.) earned multi-hit contests in both games, combining to go 4-for-8 with three runs and two RBI. Junior Byron Campbell (Waldorf, Md.) hit two triples in the game, finishing 4-for-8 with two RBI and increasing his reached base streak to 38 consecutive games.
Freshman Mike Escanilla (Waldorf, Md.) went 3-for-3 and freshman Jordan Bone (Pittstown, Pa.) allowed just one hit in four innings, but it was not enough as UMES was shut out by Delaware State 11-0 on Sunday. The loss went to Bone, who allowed just two earned in four innings. Junior Zachary Saca (Elk Grove, Calif.) did not allow an earned run in four innings in relief.
The bowling team claimed their second ever xbowling Intercollegiate Team Championship (ITC) and fifth overall National Championship this afternoon at Sun Valley Lanes in Lincoln, Neb. The Hawks topped Pikeville 2-0 in the finals, recorded for a tape-delayed airing in May on CBS Sports Network. It is the Hawks second USBC Collegiate Championship in three years and fifth title in six seasons.
UMES began the event on Thursday, April 18 with three wins. The women went 6-0 win at the USBC Team Championships in the seeding round. They posted two 4-2 wins over Newman and UW-Whitewater. The team went on to claim two 4-1 victories over Wichita State, before they concluded the tournament with the win over Pikeville.
UMES seniors Anggie Ramirez (Bogota, Colombia) and T'nia Falbo (Greensburg, Pa.) claimed one last award in their collegiate careers, All-Tournament Team at the United State Bowling Congress (USBC) Intercollegiate Team Championships (ITC). Falbo would also earn the prestigious Chris Stoehr Sportsmanship Award.
For their efforts, Ramirez and Falbo were selected as the PRMC UMES Athletes of the Week for the week of April 22.
The softball team went 0-5 this week with three MEAC losses to Hampton.
Freshman Vanessa Gomez (Belleville, N.J.) swiped three bases to move atop the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference stolen base leaders list, but it was not enough as the University of Maryland Eastern Shore softball team dropped a pair of 2-1 contests at George Mason on Wednesday. Gomez was one of two Hawks to register hits on the day as pitching dominated the contest for both sides. Senior Belen Benitez (E. Los Angeles, Calif.) and senior Carmen Gurrola (Arleta, Calif.) each were fantastic on the mound as they combined to allow just three earned runs in 12 innings.
UMES took Hampton down to the wire in Saturday's opener, but the Lady Hawks would ultimately fall in eight innings as the squad dropped a pair of games to the Lady Pirates at Hawk Field. UMES lost 5-3 in eight innings in the opener and would lose the second game by a score of 10-4.
The Lady Hawks swiped seven bags between the two games. Sophomore Morgan King (Danville, Ill.) took three in the second game, while Gomez stole one in each. Gurrola pitched 13 innings between the two games and allowed six earned runs. Gomez was 3-for-7 on the day with a double and King collected two hits and two runs in the nightcap.
Gurrola allowed just three earned runs in a complete-game effort but UMES dropped a 7-3 decision to Hampton on Sunday. UMES was led by the effort of Gurrola, but also saw a solid performance from senior Jasmine James (Willingboro, N.J.). James was 1-for-3 with an RBI, one run and a stolen base
The women's outdoor track team placed third at the Morgan Legacy Meet this past weekend.
Sophomore Lexia Robinson (White Plains, N.Y.) and senior Lenora Guion-Firmin (La Trinite, Martinique) each finished first in their respective events. Robinson earned gold in the discus with a toss of 47.82m, and took second in the shot put with a toss of 13.79 meters. Guion-Firmin ran a 53.25 in the 400m to earn first-place. Junior Imani Cox (Plainfield, N.J.) finished in fourth-place of the discus with a 42.25m.
Sophomore Geranda Williams (Waldorf, Md.) leaped to a second-place finish in the triple jump. She finished with a distance of 12.53m. Freshman Petra Kubesova (Prague, Czech Republic) finished in second place in the 1,500m with a time of 4:43.85.
The men's outdoor track team placed sixth at the Morgan Legacy meet this past weekend.
The team saw a number of its student-athletes provide solid results. Sophomore Denvil Ruan (Antigua, B.W.I.) and freshman Devin Wynn finished third and fifth place, respectively, in the triple jump. Ruan jumped a total of 14.76m, while Wynn posted a 14.17m.
Freshman Dillon Simon (Pottersville, Roseau) threw a 50.13m toss in the discus to win second, while junior Ackeem Smith (St. Catherine, Jamaica) posted a third-place finish in the 110m hurdles (14.14). Junior Nyls Nubret (St. Francois, Guadalupe) finished in sixth place in the 100m dash in a time of 10.88 seconds

Spicy Brown Sugar Bacon
This crispy, crunchy sweet and spicy bacon is absolutely addictive. It is delicious served on salads, sandwiches - or all by itself! If you don't care for it hot and spicy, simply omit the cayenne.
Arrange the strips of bacon side-by-side on the oiled rack. Sprinkle evenly with the cayenne pepper, black pepper and brown sugar.
Place in the preheated oven, and cook until brown and crisp, approximately 20 minutes; rotate the pan as needed to cook evenly.
Remove the bacon from the oven, and allow to drain and cool completely on the rack. Serve at room temperature.

Pseudopod 363: Footsteps Invisible
"Footsteps Invisible" was originally published in Argosy Weekly, January 20, 1940.
ROBERT A. ARTHUR, JR. (1909-1969) was born in 1909 at Fort Mills, Corregidor Island, Phillipines and passed away in 1969 in Philadelphia, PA. During his very productive life he was offered scholarships to both West Point and Annapolis, but turned them down to become a writer, his first works appearing in almost all of the pulp magazines being published at the time including "Black Mask" and "The Shadow". He then moved on to radio scripting with David Kogan and wrote over 500 shows, including creating the program THE MYSTERIOUS TRAVELER, all while continuing to write short fiction. He wrote for THE TWILIGHT ZONE and was script editor for ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS, later becoming the editor of the Alfred Hitchcock paperback series (both the adult and children's lines). From 1964-1968 he wrote the first ten of the ALFRED HITCHCOCK & THE THREE INVESTIGATORS books about the adventures of a trio of intrepid mystery solvers – a series still popular worldwide. THE THREE INVESTIGATORS series was one of the seminal youthful reading experiences of your editor, Shawn Garrett, who will eternally thank Mr. Arthur for the creation of Jupiter Jones, Pete Crenshaw, Bob Andrews and all the residents of Rocky Beach, California and who is extremely proud to be able to present this story to you through the auspices of Mr. Arthur's daughter, Elizabeth Arthur, who followed in the footsteps of her father and is an author herself.
Your reader this week – Kevin Hayes – is a man of many facets. Hailing from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, he is overactively involved in the Science Fiction/Fantasy and Horror Community where he has done (and continues to do) programming for the usually annual SF conference Confluence – July 25th to 27th, 2014. He is a writer, a reader, an actor, a singer, a poet, and a cartoonist/illustrator – and that's just in his spare time. He thrives with his artistic endeavors and lives with a hugely talented woman who shares his interests and is the passion of his life (they have collaborated on a novel that defies easy description for which they still try to find a publishing home). The home they have made for themselves also contains three of her five children, artists, writers and performers all. Kevin's website can be found here and he is also one of the driving members of a writers' critique group called Write Or Die! (aka "WorD") who meet at a local bookshop. He has a story appearing in "TV Gods" from Fortress Publishing, available May/June 2014, and he appears in a photo-graphic comic from Tia Tormen Productions called "Zombimboz" on sale now on Amazon!.
"'Good morning, Sir Andrew,' Jorman said pleasantly as the steps came up to his stand. 'Times?'
'Thanks.' It was a typically British voice that answered. 'Know me, do you?'
'Oh, yes.' Jorman grinned. It was usually a source of mystification to his customers that he knew their names. But names were not too hard to learn, if the owners of them lived or worked nearby. 'A bellboy from your hotel was buying a paper last time you stopped. When you'd gone on, he told me who you were.'
'That easy, eh?' Sir Andrew Carraden exclaimed. 'Don't know as I like it so much, though, being kept track of. Prefer to lose myself these days. Had enough of notoriety in the past.'
'Had plenty of it four years ago, I suppose,' Jorman suggested. 'I followed the newspaper accounts of your tomb-hunting expedition. Interesting work, archaeology. Always wished I could poke around in the past that way, sometime.'
'Don't!' The word was sharp. 'Take my advice and stay snug and cozy in the present. The past is an uncomfortable place. Sometimes you peer into it and then spend the rest of your life trying to get away
from it.'"

Stampede Scholarship benefits student interested in summer courses
Scholarships often determine whether or not a student can attend a college or university. The Adams State College and San Luis Valley Ski Hi Stampede recognize local students are often deserving of financial assistance. Every year, for over twenty years, the Adams State funds Stampede scholarships to three deserving recipients.
Jamie Willschau, a junior majoring in recreation, tourism, and resort management at Colorado State University, in Fort Collins, Colo., received the scholarship a couple of years ago, and this summer is taking classes at Adams State. "My scholarship paid for my summer classes," Willschau said. "This way I can get caught up on some of my classes."
The scholarship is open to anyone who has been involved in 4-H, FFA, Little Britches, high school rodeo, or Stampede and any student with a family member who is a Stampede stockholder. Willschau was involved in 4-H for eight years. "The greatest thing about the scholarship is it never expires."
The scholarship is available to males and females, traditional or non-traditional students who meet the requirements. The scholarship committee is comprised of two or three San Luis Valley Ski Hi Stampede Committee members and a third party not affiliated with the Stampede and/or the committee.
Willschau helps run the scoreboard during the rodeo events at Stampede. After college, she would like to own her own business. "I appreciate the flexibility of the scholarship and the assistance with meeting my present goals in college and my future professional goals."

Decent quality - better price
Reviewed By Cha2776 rles K (SANFORD, FL) Reviewed for a 2012 Ford F-150 —4/30/2016 7:21 PM
I've been looking at buying one of these units for about 4 years now. I originally built one out of 2x8's and garage door rollers and it held up for 4 years, but now it was time to buy a real one. Most that I found were near $1000. But this one was several hundred dollars less expensive. It does what I need and should last longer than the one I made. My biggest complaint about it is that it comes in pieces. I expected it to come already assembled. It took me about 3-4 hours to build it.

< Go to main website for Streets Alive
My design is about this vision of an ideal place. I wanted to use animals as subject matter since I often use deer as a motif in my work. Also my sponsor has a beautiful dog,Muffin, and she became a part of the image. The image suggests that animals, nature and technology can coexist in a peaceful environment. It took a long time for me to come up with the design because the theme "Sustainability" is such a complex topic. It can be dealt with in different aspects: economy, environment, or society. After contemplation, I decided to focus on the idea of place where there is a sense of equilibrium.
I have been using bright colors in my work for a while. I think that is my palette. I seem to gravitate towards those bright, saturated colors. In recent work, I've used those colors to contrast with the neutral colors of the deer motif to suggest spacial differences. I want to create an image where illusion and flatness coexist. I use gouache paint, acrylic paint and collage as my primary media. Also, I use pen and ink, and experiment with other three-dimensional materials-most recently wool felt.

Hey there,
I've just moved into the area recently (I'm actually from England). I'm in Kirkland. If Peter Kirk Park is within range for you, I am always up for a hit.
Hi Sam, Sunday or Monday I can play in Kirkland
great! Both are good for me... Sunday we would probably have to wait a while for a court but if it's a sunny day it's nice to sit on the grass
Shall we go for Sunday? What time is good for you? + can you bring some balls?

Yes because if ford introduced the foot controlled car we should all adapt. Your argument is the most asinine I've ever seen and is representative of someone who thinks their work environment is perfectly suited for everyone so you all should STFU and use it. I ran into the same asinine belief when I dabbled with OS X on a MBP a few years ago. I switched back to Windows because I don't like a platform telling me how my workflow should occur. Windows 8 is Microsoft's OS X when it comes to forcing users into computing in a very linear, very limited way of doing things. If Microsoft released nothing but left handed mice would you be telling people to just deal with it and adapt?

With more and more of our data heading into the cloud, and concerns about just how secure these online storage solutions are (see the Dropbox password cock-up from earlier this week) some people are still taking the external HDD option to back up their files.
And now LaCie has offered up its dual back-up system - the LaCie CloudBox - a 100GB hard drive that also automatically backs up your data in the cloud.
And what's more the cloud based data is all protected by multiple levels of data security including keeping two copies of your files and applying 128-bit AES data encryption before the files are even sent up to the cloud.
The software it comes with works on PC or Mac and you can connect up to 10 computers to your CloudBox. When it comes to file recovery, the CloudBox Restore Application allows you to restore up to 10 previous backup versions.
You don't have to have your PC on for the LaCie CloudBox to operate either, it will begin work and keep in contact with the cloud as soon as files are saved on to it.
It costs £179.99 and this includes 100GB of cloud storage as well for a year. It's available now.

Fifteen Years Ago Today, Techdirt Was Born
from the feeling-old dept
Either way, today marks 15 years of doing this in one form or another. One week after this initial test, the newsletter went out to about 100 people -- mostly fellow students at Cornell's business school. A month later we were up to about 1,000 subscribers, and it built from there. By February of the next year the website finally came into existence (and with it, the Techdirt name, which beat out my second choice "bluedot" because a friend told me that sounded boring, while Techdirt sounded edgy). A year after that, the site itself morphed into a blog -- though the word "blog" still didn't exist -- using Slashcode 0.3 (which was a complete mess). And within a few years it was a part of my full time job.
Anyway, I wanted to share the moment, as I figured some of you might get a kick out of seeing that original offering. We're hoping to put together some sort of gathering in the fall to celebrate this anniversary (too much stuff going on to have it coincide with the actual date) and we'll share more info on that as we finalize those plans. Either way, none of the last 15 years happens without you folks being dedicated readers, commenters, submitters, link spreaders, etc. From starting out with a total audience of 3 people to the millions who now read our content every month, it's been quite a ride so far, and I hope to continue going strong for at least another fifteen years.

It was in 1762 that a little settlement of 12 cabins, which founder William Allen called "Northampton Towne," became officially registered as a location after a storekeeper there gave birth. And it was John Adams, passing through it as a small farming village in 1777, who called the place "Allen's Town." It's hard to imagine how from these humble beginnings the city has transformed into the bustling, diverse center we now call home. The population has expanded from predominantly Northern European — particularly German — to today's mix of Hispanic, Asian, African and Middle Eastern people. The landscape is different, too, with the busy sidewalks and storefronts of the 1930s, '40s and '50s, anchored by the former Hess's department store, transformed into loft apartments, restaurants, office buildings and, most recently, the PPL Center. This huge sports arena complex is home to the American Hockey League's Phantoms team and various restaurants. Attached to it is the new Renaissance Allentown Hotel, which uses the historic Dime Bank as its lobby. The hotel is directly across Seventh Street from the city's delightful Arts Walk. More businesses, buildings and apartments are being added downtown each year.
Here are some highlights of the city's varied history:
When the Declaration of Independence was read publicly for the first time in Allentown on July 8, 1776, it was read in English and German.
During the American Revolution, the actual Liberty Bell was hidden under the floor at Zion's United Church of Christ on Hamilton Street so that it couldn't be melted down and made into a cannon by British troops.
The Albertus L. Meyers Bridge (Eighth Street Bridge) was the longest and highest concrete bridge in the world when it opened to traffic in 1913. In 1974, it was named after Meyers, long-time conductor of the Allentown Band who, as a boy, played cornet with the band during the opening ceremonies.
The Great Allentown Fair is among the oldest fairs in the country and once featured horse racing.
Homeopathic Healing Art Plaque, 31 S. Penn St., marks the location of the world's first medical college exclusively devoted to the practice of homeopathic medicine. Established in 1835, the college moved to Philadelphia in 1843, where it grew into what is today Hahnemann University Hospital.
Pop culture
Allentown is mentioned in the 2011 movie "The Hangover Part II" when Ed Helms sings a cover of Billy Joel's song "Allentown."
In the Saturday Night Live skit "Good Excuse" in Jan. 2009, a guest is urged to tell his girlfriend, as an excuse for his breakup with her, that his company is relocating to Allentown.
Allentown is mentioned in the 2008 movie, "The Wrestler," as where Mickey Rourke (Randy "The Ram" Robinson) had wrestled leading to his comeback.
The 1990 dark comedy film, "I Love You to Death," directed by Lawrence Kasdan, is based on an attempted murder that happened in 1984 in Allentown.
Allentown is mentioned in the opening lyric of the Frank Zappa song "200 Years Old," which appears on his 1975 album Bongo Fury.
Allentown also is mentioned in the 1957 book, "On the Road," by Jack Kerouac.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie refused to hide the truth of her double mastectomy surgery from their six kids, but spared them the adult version of events.
Pitt tells TV show Extra the couple has a "no secrets" policy when it comes to their children and so when Jolie learned she was a cancer high risk, she sat the family down and explained what had to happen next.
At the after party for the premiere of his new movie World War Z in London on Sunday (02Jun13), Pitt explained, "I mean there's an age of understanding, so you've got to present it in a way that is age appropriate, but we know our children very well... We want everything to be on the table and any questions they have for them to ask.
"We unleash certain things on them when it's out of the scary zone... and we know where we're heading."
The premiere was Jolie's first public appearance since she revealed she had undergone a double mastectomy last month (May13).

How To Buy A Snowboard
Snowboarding has become one of the fastest growing sports over the past 10
years. If you are just getting into the sport the process of determining what
equipment is "right" for you is probably the most subjective purchasing
procedure you will experience. For most riders, the purchase of a snowboard is
an emotional experience that fulfills not only a physical need, but also
reflects the user's own personality.
Riding Style
Technical Freestyle
This type of rider is most often found on the halfpipe or riding in the snowboard park. Many of today's
technical freestyle riders come to snowboarding with experience as a
skateboarder, in-line skater, BMX, or other action sports background. While
the equipment specific to this type of rider excels in park and pipe riding, it
can also be very versatile across the whole mountain.
While an overused term in snowboarding, freeride is still the best way to
describe the majority of snowboarders and soon-to-be snowboarders. As it
suggests, freeride describes a user who intends to utilize the whole mountain.
These riders enjoy everything about snowboarding: the amazing feel of carving a
turn on freshly groomed slopes, the sense of flight obtained at lift-off from
the big-air jump, the creativity that can only be understood descending the
half-pipe, and the feel of freedom one gets floating in fresh powder.
This "type" of riding style is one of the fastest growing segments within
the snowboarding world. Commonly referred to as "cross-over," a majority of
these riders were once skiers. A freecarve rider enjoys the full-length and
width a mountain has to offer, continually transitioning from one turn to the
Alpine/Race riders are easily picked out of the crowd. They are always
seen on groomed trails, laying a trench in the snow with each turn. These
riders "use" a snowboards edge like no other rider. Using powerful body
movements and gravity as their friend, alpine riders enjoy the sport only when
they are connected to the snow.

We grow fresh vegetables, herbs, cut flowers and pastured poultry, pork and eggs on the scenic westward slopes of the Middletown Valley in Frederick County, Maryland. Though not certified organic, we aim to grow the prettiest and tastiest food for our local community in a way that leaves the farm healthy and productive for future generations. You can find us at area farmers markets, CSAs and local food hubs.
Check out our Facebook page
to find out what is
happening on the farm!
Our Past, Our Roots...
Though we now grow the ingredients for your next meal, our farming past is tied up in something most people around here don't eat: sheep. Full-time farmer Kip Kelley and part-time lovely assistant Sarah Cramer both grew up on sheep farms on opposite sides of Mar Lu Ridge and got to know each other stacking hay in Sarah's family barn. Having raised sheep and crops for over 30 years, the Cramer family farm is transitioning to feeding folks in the local area since 2011 with Full Cellar Farm. Kiparoo Farm (the Kelley family farm) still grows over 100 Border Leicester sheep and makes beautiful, shiny and lustrous yarns for knitters that love working with special wool. You can learn more about Kiparoo here:
Our Present, Our Philosophy...
"Are you organic?"
That's a question we get a lot. The short answer is "no," but that doesn't tell you the whole story. We are not certified organic by the USDA, but we follow many farming practices that are considered organic. Principally, we use no "cides" (herbicides, pesticides or fungicides) to grow any of our food. Instead of using synthetic, salt-based fertilizer we feed our plants with animal manures, green manures and trace minerals as needed. We keep our animals on grass as soon as they are old enough which provides them with a cleaner environment and exposes them to a wide diet instead of only grain. The list goes on... Ultimately we don't go through the USDA certification process due to the expense of enrolling in the program, time involved in keeping records and we find that most customers would prefer to hear a story about our farming practices rather than just the "O" word.
Our Future, Your Future.
Is there a crop we are not growing that you'd like to see? Is there a market where you would like to see our produce? Would you like to participate in a CSA with Full Cellar Farm? We love listening to feedback from our customers, so please talk to us at market or send an email to let us know how we are doing!

Thank-you notes
|Photo by Charles Barry
How do you begin to thank someone who made your education possible? On commencement day, there are plenty of messages for moms and dads and folks who've brought new grads up through the world. But of course the whole shebang starts long before then, and it carries on. So, in this space where members of the campus community generally opine on a matter of great import, we thought this time around, with gratitude as our theme, why not let a few students offer some messages of thanks to all of you who've given time and treasure and care to sustain this place? Here are their words, written on a giant thank-you card this May, as part of a festive day they call Sprinksgiving, which recognizes that, without the culture of philanthropy (to coin a phrase) nurturing this place, we would sorely miss things like scholarships, libraries, athletics, schools of arts and science, business and law, engineering and theology, education and counseling psychology, etc., etc., etc. Not to mention sending students out into the world, to places near and far.
A word of thanks: Students share their messages of thanks to donors.

Dear Seminary Community, Last week we closed the 2012-2013 Annual Fund drive with a bang, achieving the 16% increase which was our goal. The final tally on dollars contributed was $1,086,877.17.
Breaking the one million dollar mark was akin to breaking the sound barrier. Virtually no one believed that this was possible at this point. As you may know, when we formulated the strategic plan just two years ago we projected a goal of $1 million by 2016. Since then we have reformulated Annual Fund goals at a much more aggressive level, and we have already observed what a positive difference this can make to our mission. Achieving the $1 million goal means that there are other impossible things we can achieve.
This achievement rests on many factors, but among the most important factors are the leadership of the Board of Trustees, the continuing support of our entire Seminary community, our faculty, administration, staff, students, alums, President's Round Table and other generous stakeholders, and the work of our Institutional Advancement Office led by Linda Medley. The support of the Board was both essential and absolutely over the top! While giving throughout our constituency increased by some 16%, giving among our already generous trustees increased by 69%. The Board of Trustees demonstrated amazing leadership with trustee-to-trustee challenges and challenges issued by trustees for all stakeholders. I know of no seminary board that has demonstrated deeper across-the-board support for a school. We as a seminary community are very grateful to our Board of Trustees for their generosity and leadership. This is the kind of leadership on which we can build our school's future. Throughout our Seminary community we have seen increases in giving. We have seen increases among long-time supporters of the Seminary, throughout the larger community, and across the country. We have also witnessed the support of new friends of the Seminary, people who have decided to invest in the future of our Seminary because of the difference they believe it can make in our world. Pastors and church members have told us how much they appreciate our commitment to erase seminary indebtedness. Congregational leaders have told us how excited they are about the potential for our Black Church Studies program and D2D. Without their support – without your support – this vision will never become a reality.
The work of the Institutional Advancement Office was simply phenomenal. Linda Medley's first week on the job was at the end of November. She began putting her team into place (in our core fund development staff only Judy Johnston remained), and mobilizing this team to achieve the goal right away. But, effectively, the team as a whole was working on a half-year calendar. Imagine what they can do with a whole year! The Institutional Advancement Office deserves our gratitude for a job well done. And I have every confidence that after they fill one more position (they currently have an open position in Seminary Relations), they will be able to accomplish much more. As I said to them last week, "just because something is impossible, doesn't mean it isn't do-able."
Thank you again for the confidence you place in Louisville Seminary. Together we have achieved an enormous goal. But we are just getting started.
We have a comprehensive campaign ahead of us that will effectively change the way theological education is done. We must continue to undergird our Seminary's core mission with a solid Annual Fund effort every year. We need to ensure the long-term future of our school with greater emphasis on planned and estate giving through membership in our Caldwell Society. And we need to search out and find the next generation of promising ministers for the future of our church and educate them for ministry in an increasingly diverse and fast-changing society. I have every confidence that with your dedication we will accomplish much more than we can even dream today.

The M4 concept car, which is believed to be very close to the final design, is finished in "Aurum Dust" paint and boasts a number of carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) parts, including the roof, front splitter and rear diffuser, all designed to reduce the car's weight (and, in the case of the roof, lower its centre of gravity).
The bonnet features BMW M division's signature bulge, the "power dome", as well as three large air intakes, while at the rear you get an impression of the M4's wider track thanks to the flared wheel arches.
Under the bonnet, the V8 petrol engine of the M3 will be replaced with a straight-six, twin-turbocharged unit producing about 450bhp. Drive is likely to be sent to the rear wheels through BMW's seven-speed paddle-shift gearbox.
The BMW M4 coupé goes on sale next year - a new M3 four-door saloon is also likely.

OJS Dashboard
The dashboard is a critical screen for helping users be productive with OJS, providing them with a quick overview of their responsibilities.
Dashboard - Tasks
Dashboard - Submissions
Dashboard - Archives
Issues have been identified regarding the findability of particular submissions, especially when there are multiple submissions available, clarity of the information presented in the dashboard, and the co-relation between task status and email notifications.
Recommendation A (John):
- Multiple journals: can select journal in Submissions and in Archive
- Submission and Archive numbers correspond to selected journal
- Rollovers
- Article number gives date submission made;
- Status links gives date submission entered current status;
- Editors, gives Send Email To.
- Collapsible and expandable categories, e.g., [+] Unassigned Submissions
- Sortable by columns
Further thinking on my (john's) Dashboard following Bruno's Design
- Add scroll bar, which is a great idea under Submissions, and maybe even Archive (although need to consider with potentially 1,000s of entries).
- Add the dates, although I want to consider having the dates available as rollovers for the submission number, which I propose adding to the dashboard, because I have repeatedly found it very helpful in working with editors for identifying which submission we are talking about, and I'd propose hyperlinking the number to lead back to the submission's Submission stage.
- Propose as a general UI/UX principle that we consider "visual prominence" or what pops out first (like the information icon below) and what needs to be seen. The author; titles need to be more prominent than the icons; submissions with tasks need to be next, stages need to be next.
- Propose as a general UI/UX principle ending all underlining for hyperlinking, as it reduces legibility of the hyperlinked item and dates the site.
- Propose as a general UI/UX principle reducing use of horizontal lines (tables in research publications do not use such lines) and instead create a more continuous textual line to guide the eye (without adding another visual element), emphasizing the dashboard as a list of submissions, like a bibliographic list, rather than a tabulation of data.
- Propose no hyperlinking of submission titles (as opposed to file titles), as it reduces the legibility of what needs to be carefully read (compared to file titles and Editorial Stages) and including as much of the submission's title as room permits.
- Propose hyperlinking the Stages to suggest to editors that the link leads directly to the current stage where action is needed or can be reviewed.
- Propose using the same font throughout, with all-caps for titles, small caps, as shown, and the use of grey-scale to subordinate what is not require immediate attention on each review of dashbaord, such as the the column titles.
- Propose column order of Editor/ Submit Date / Stage / Task (as this eliminates the empty column in the top half) and using Stage rather than Status as it refers to accepted, declined etc
See: Dashboard Wireframe
Suggestion (Bruno):
- Cleaned a lot using the scroll bar as a paging widget (like facebook). I was hesitant to use it anywhere else with more a fixed set of data. I also thought it would be too much work and we had enough with the current paging. But I think that on this case this feature fits well, because users are not interested in the exact page a submission will be. It can be page 2 today and tomorrow page 3, so there is not much point. We plan to use the search with a lot of options, so users can filter submissions there and just navigate using the scroll.
- Put the tasks next to the stages, hide the content. It can be viewed on click, opening inside a small modal.
- Authors and title can come in two lines now. More space to authors and the grid in general.
- Show submit date. We already had users asking for this, so I think it's important to go as clear as possible.
- Add the row actions (more information and in case of authored submissions, delete).
- Plan to add the search options at the top. We can add a filter option to search by tasks (only "A decision is needed in review stage" tasks, for example). That would make users that wants to see this specific overview happy. But I think we need to test if it would be necessary.
- Ideally this would be a submissions and tasks overview. I think we can keep the tasks tab as something personal, "my tasks" only overview. We can use the same amount of submission detail (name, state and date) but adding more about the task itself.
Recommendation B (John - notes from last year):
- Add a Submissions grid to the Editor's dash containing all active submissions for the Journal, with an Editor column to indicate who is assigned. Remove "My Authored Submissions" from Editor's dash. (This grid will include the Editor's authored submissions for that journal by definition.)
- Move the Section Editor's authored submissions into their "My Assigned Submissions" grid. Remove "My Authored Submissions" from Section Editor's dash.
- The "Status" column should be removed from the Unassigned grid
- Most aspects of the dashboards are currently not journal-specific, i.e. the "My Submissions" list shows all submissions authored in all journals on the site. Mixing those into the Submissions list for the specific journal will muddy the waters. Are you proposing making the dashboard's submission lists journal-specific? For example, "My Authored Submissions" is for all journals; if we remove that from the Editor's dashboard, the Editor will no longer have access to submissions they have authored in other journals they do not edit.
THE EDITOR SHOULD ONLY HAVE ACCESS TO SUBMISSIONS FOR THE JOURNALS FOR WHICH THEY ARE ASSIGNED AS EDITOR FOR. If an editor is running two journals (rare), it seems fair for reducing confusion to have a dashboard for each journal so that they working with the people involved in that journal. On the other hand, AN AUTHOR who submits to two journals is, in a sense a member of both journals (as is a Reviewer who reviews for more than one). But even then this would be a rare event, and it would not be expected to be able to log in to one journal and have access to the other. With the Mega-journal model, with many more submissions, we'd still have one journal.
- How is the "My Assigned Submissions" grid affected in the Editor's case? It overlaps with Submissions as specified above, but I think it's worth keeping as the Editor may want a short-list of submissions the Editor is actually assigned to.
AS THE EDITOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WHOLE OF THE JOURNAL'S SUBMISSIONS, EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY ASSIGN THEMSELVES TO SOME PORTION oF THE SUBMISSIONS, I THINK IT FAIR FOR THEM TO HAVE TO SCAN THE WHOLE LIST OF ACTIVE SUBMISSIONS, WHILE BEING ABLE TO IDENTIFY their as they see their name under EDITOR.
- I don't think we've thought out interactions between roles yet (for users who have multiple roles).
THIS will be clear in the TASK tab, but are you thinking of a ROLE column for Submissions when someone has more than one role related to a single journal.
Recommendation C (CDL)
- Add a search box limited to submissions.
See CDL Report pages 70-71.
Recommendation D (CDL)
- We recommend that a consistent mapping matrix needs to be created that maps email titles and default communication text to align the wording for dashboard status and task description. Or at the very least, if email titles, dashboard status and tasks descriptions cannot be reconciled by the development team, then users would like a way to edit the email titles and status descriptions themselves.
See CDL Report page 71.
Recommendation E (CDL)
- Take My Authored Submissions queue and place it in a separate tab in the dashboard construct.
- Move the pagination mechanism so that it is situated closer to the queue that it controls.
- Reconcile the way that new submissions are displayed in the Submissions tab so that all new submissions appear in the Unassigned queue first.
See CDL Report pages 71-72.
Recommendation F (CDL)
- Add a filtering mechanism to allow users to sort between items that had been declined or published. An ability to search the content within this queue would be an effective tool for Editors or Journal Managers in locating known items for troubleshooting questions.
See CDL Report page 72.
Recommendation G (Kevin)
- To assist with findability, make columns sortable, triggered by a standard icon next to the column heading.
See, for example, this Table Sorter.
Recommendation H (Kevin)
- On the Submissions page, add a horizontal rule below the pagination tools, to clarify which section it applies to.
Recommendation I (PKP)
- Dashboard is context specific, only present information for the current context;
- Bring the issue lists to dashboard;
- Tabs also show the number of existing items that they represent. The submission tab in special also shows the number of task the current user have.
- Use grid style and UX based on the feedback from users for grid redesign;
- Grid search should use autocomplete;
- Use 1 grid with 4 collapsible grid categories (Unassigned, My Assigned, My Authored and Active). The Active one will show all submissions that are not related to the editor viewing the page (he is not the author, it's not assigned to any task) and that already have an editor assignment. It's there so editors can access and check the editorial process.
- Start new submission process is a grid action;
- Remove the expand all grid action that the grid accordion feature introduces (not necessary, only 4 categories, just adds noise);
- Start grid with all categories opened;
- Remove grid row actions, no more access to Information Center, delete action it's now at the category row.
- In Submissions tab, just delete incomplete submissions;
- In Archives tab, can delete all;
- Show submission Id to give users a sense of chronology (the higher the id, more recent the submission);
- Mix author and title into only one column;
- Add editor column, to show which editor is assigned to each submission;
- If editor column is not used by the submission category (my assigned and unassigned), the title should use its space.
- Open a new widget (we can call it light modal) when clicking on the submission ids, with more information about it (complete title, submission date, complete list of authors);
- Hover the editor abbreviations to get the full name as tool tips;
- Remove links from titles;
- Click on stage name to go to the workflow page, inside the correspondent tab;
- Use an asterisk right next to the stage name to represent a task that needs to be done for the submission for the current user (not only for that particular stage, this is for all stages);
- Use infinite scrolling pagination, one for each submission category;
Search options appears when you click the search button:
If you search for a submission and no result is found, grid should give an option to do the same search in Archives. That way we avoid users not founding submission because they forgot to search in Archives.
Example of the hover to show the editor name:
Example of the light modal to show more info about the submission:
See "discussion" tab at the top of the wiki page.
To come.
Moving Tasks to Header (Alec)
- Tasks removed from Dashboard; moved to header drop-down instead
- Tasks become context-independent (not affected by what press/journal is selected); remainder of Dashboard becomes context-dependent (only content from the current press/journal are displayed)
- Number of "new" notifications indicated in parentheses
- Tasks become "new" when created; can be marked read/unread using grid actions.
- Made the grid one-column (two was clumsy and didn't suit non-submission notifications)
User responses to Grid redesign recorded here.

Test Reviews
We received a pair of Minox BN 7x50 DC Binoculars from our friends at Pelagic Outfitters to play with. Like most serious fishermen and hunters, we here at BDO know that optics are not the place to "cheap out".
As soon as you take them out of the box, you can tell this is a quality pair of binoculars. Comfortable ergonomics, a rubberized coating and an overall solid feel gave me a great initial impression.
Immediately after unpacking, we all went outside for a little test drive. Right away we were impressed with its light gathering ability. The image was exceptionally bright and razor sharp.
I'm one of those people that have trouble with cheaper binos. I can never seem to align the images correctly and I quickly get a headache and stop using them. These binos didn't suffer from that issue. They adjusted easily, came into perfect focus and were comfortable for extended periods of time.
Tap into the possibilities of game cameras
Today's market offers a wide choice of game cameras of all types and makes, and they offer a terrific sales opportunity, as reported by GunTradeWorld.
Read our report on pages 60 and 61.
MINOX HG 8x43 - Best Binoculars Reviews - Best Wildlife Observation & Hunting Binocular 2012
Winner in 2011 and once again in 2012, the Minox HG 8x43 scored a hugely impressive 87% overall on the Best Binocular Reviews Ratings scale, that included a 10/10 for body construction quality. So you just know that these water and fog proof binoculars are extremely well made and easily tough enough to handle pretty much whatever you throw at them whilst you are out there in the wild.
As well as this, at only 650g (22.9oz), these are one of THE lightest full sized binoculars that I have ever reviewed, this combined with their well made and well padded neck strap will make them as comfortable as possible even if you have to carry them with you all day.
County Deer Stalking - MINOX Binocular Review BL 8x44
In the past Minox have perhaps not been the first Brand to spring to the mind of UK Deer Stalkers when considering a pair of Binoculars however whether it be for Camera's, spotting scopes or Binoculars they have always had a reputation for quality.
It seems however that times may be changing with Minox now having set their sights firmly on the Field Sports and Deer Stalking market.
Not having reviewed a Minox product before but being aware of their reputation I was delighted when they offered to send me a pair of their 8x44 Binoculars from their BL range and more than a little excited at the prospect of giving them a try.
My first impressions of these Bino's were that they are remarkably light weight. Weighing only a little over 800g (strap and eye covers included) and being just 15cm in length they are very practical and easy to carry. Whilst this isn't the most important thing in a pair of Bino's it certainly does help, especially when already loaded down with a rifle, shooting sticks and all the other accoutrements that many deer stalkers tend to carry.
Built for Comfort - Birdwatch.co.uk Reviews the MINOX BL 8x33
MINOX's latest addition to its birding optics range is light, comfortable and certainly impressed Mike Alibone when he field tested the model.
There are some binoculars which feel instantly comfortable when you raise them to your eyes for the first time, and for me, the MINOX BL 8x33 is one of those models.
With its rather simple, unpatterned charcoal-coloured body and trademark notched eyecups, this small binocular is instantly recongnisable as a Minox product. It is one of a number of relatively new open-bridge models which form the basis of the manufacturerer's BL range. It weighs 650 g but feels lighter, with the thin layer of soft, non-slip rubber covering the polycarbonate body helping to keep the weight to a minimum, while lending an impression of solidity and durability.

Justin Bieber turned the tables on a top U.S. gossip website on April Fools' Day (01Apr13) by telling his Twitter.com followers to ring the publication's office for a chance to speak to him.
The Baby hitmaker posted the contact details for TMZ.com's hotline and encouraged his fans to dial the number, fooling them into thinking he would be the person picking up.
In a post on his Twitter page, he writes, "As promised taking all fan phone calls TODAY... Talk to u soon!"
Bieber subsequently deleted the tweet but cheekily returned to the site later to declare, "Did everyone call me yet?"
Editors at The Hollywood Reporter claim the number is toll-free, meaning bosses of the site will have to cover the bill for the phone calls.

Look for Andromeda while waiting for meteors
The moon wanes through morning skies before reaching new phase in the nether hours between Tuesday and Wednesday. Before then, look for the waning crescent near brilliant Venus before dawn over the weekend. By early morning Sunday, a thin sliver of moon is just five degrees below the dazzling morning star in the east. If you have a clear view of the horizon, scan it for Saturn, reemerging from the sun's glare. Monday before dawn, the ringed planet is a half-dozen degrees below the razor-thin crescent moon.
This weekend marks the peak of the North Taurid meteor shower, which follows last weekend's South Taurids. While both Taurids typically deliver no more than 10 meteors an hour, they make up for quantity with quality. The bits of stellar debris that create the Taurids are much larger than the bits of dust from other meteor showers, often resulting in large fireballs that streak slowly across the sky. Your best bet to spot these shooting stars is between midnight and dawn. They appear to originate in the constellation Taurus, but you might see them anywhere on the celestial dome.
Without the moon's glare, clear skies away from the urban glow will reveal the Milky Way, stretching from the constellation Auriga in the northeast to Sagittarius in the southwest. Every star we see, including our own sun, is part of the Milky Way. In fact, there is only one visible object in the night sky that isn't part of the Milky Way.
At roughly two and a half million light-years away, the Andromeda Galaxy is the most distant object you can see with the unaided eye. Once you find it, between the constellations Andromeda and Cassiopeia, it's surprisingly large, appearing as a hazy patch covering more sky than the full moon. This time of year, it appears in the southeast at sunset, is almost overhead at midnight and is low in the northwest as dawn approaches.

The death toll is still expected to rise.
The funds raised will be used to help the victims of the tornado to rebuild their town, which has been described by many as now resembling a war zone.
The tornado moved across a 20-mile stretch with winds of at least 200 mph. In the path of the deadly storm were a hospital and an elementary school, both of which were destroyed. Rescue workers labored throughout the night searching for survivors amongst the wreckage...more.

Postmaster reaffirms pledge on William Street transfer timeline
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Postal Service will stick to its word to not transfer employees from its William Street mail processing facility to Rochester until 2015, and is exploring ways of maintaining next-day delivery in as many places as possible despite consolidations such as the one facing the 700-employee Buffalo facility, Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe said Friday.
In a brief interview after an appearance at the National Press Club, the postmaster general addressed ongoing concerns that the agency might transfer most of its Buffalo processing operations to Rochester in the coming months despite a vow to Sen. Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., that the move would not take place until 2015.
"We've said we're not going to move any people" before 2015, Donahoe said. "Now if a person wants to transfer because they have a family and want to get closer to home, they're free to do that. As we've said, this is a phased-in change, and there's no intention to change that schedule at this point."
Employee transfers would happen in 2015 "if there was to be a transfer," Donahoe said. "What we've been trying to do is work down the jobs so if a clerk wants to become a letter carrier so they can do that, then they do not have to go to Rochester."
Donahoe's comments came after a luncheon speech at the Press Club in which he outlined his agency's grave financial situation and its suggestions to Congress for how to fix it.
With its mail volume plummeting in the Internet era, the agency lost $15.9 billion last year alone, despite a plan to close dozens of mail processing facilities nationwide.
The proposal to close the William Street facility and transfer its operations to Rochester prompted a huge outcry from local members of Congress and mixed signals from the Postal Service as to when that closure would actually occur.
Donahoe's comments after the speech seemed to allay concerns that the closure could happen more quickly, which stemmed from internal Postal Service emails earlier this year that indicated the shift to Rochester could begin as soon as this June.
Donahoe was asked the question about Buffalo a second time after laughing it off when asked about the timeline of the closure during the formal question-and-answer session that followed his Press Club speech.
In those comments from the podium, Donahoe did not address the timetable for the closure of the William Street facility.
But he did note that the Buffalo closure raises concerns about whether the Postal Service could continue to deliver all first-class intra-city mail in Buffalo overnight, as it currently does. That's because the proposal entails shipping all of Buffalo's first-class mail to Rochester for processing before returning it to Buffalo for delivery.
"The one thing we've been worried about is not putting a whole lot of that overnight [delivery] at risk," Donahoe said.
And while last year's closures didn't threaten much overnight delivery, "Buffalo starts to bend that curve," as do some other large communities where processing facilities are set to be closed.
"We've just got to make sure we'll work through that in terms of trying to preserve as much of that overnight service" as possible, Donahoe said.
Upon hearing the question about Buffalo from the Press Club president, Donahoe broke out laughing. He then appeared to allude to the pressure he's faced from Schumer and Rep. Brian Higgins, D-Buffalo, to keep the Buffalo facility open.
"It depends on how I answer this question whether I get a phone call this afternoon," he said.
Donahoe's response did nothing to impress Higgins, who repeated his call for Donahoe's resignation.
"His general attitude was dismissive and disrespectful of people he's obliged to serve," Higgins said.
Noting that the Postal Service has never delivered a "clear and compelling" rationale for closing the Buffalo facility, Higgins also didn't put much stock in Donahoe's comments that local postal jobs will not be transferred to Rochester until 2015.
"With him, these things are always subject to change," Higgins said.

I recently found some whacked out inventions that I wanted to share with you:
Wake 'n Bacon
An alarm clock that wakes you up with the smell and sizzle of cooking bacon. This clock gently wakes you up with the mouthwatering aroma of a real strip of bacon, just like waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of Mum cooking breakfast.Yummerz.
Everyone loves Milo (or chocolate milk to you foreigners) but it can be a pain to constantly stir it up with a spoon. Well, this new automatic chocolate milk mixer cup makes it alot easier to enjoy your favorite drink. The cup does all the work for you. Just pour in the milk and chocolate and watch the mixer do the job you...and the cup is dead cute.
I love this! Its a table and chair set that can be used indoors or outdoors as a patio set. Its stylish and its convenient. It doesn't take up much space. Hell, you could put it in your trailer and take it camping. You'd be the Hip 'n Happening campers on the block.
And of course how can I forget to reminder you that its Whacky Wednesdays at Steers tomorrow.
Two for the Price of One.

TV watchers tuning into the season premiere of Battlestar Galactica tonight have more accurate information about humans killed in the show's space battles than they do about civilian deaths in Iraq. This fetish for numerical exactness is part of what makes the show so realistic and appealing to non-scifi fans — but it's also what makes fans so freakishly devoted. Because you can track every single death. And we've done that for you here, in a chart revealing the strangely detailed information Battlestar offers about its fictional population of spacers fighting robots.
Cylons have thinned an interplanetary civilization down to 50 thousand members, and as season four begins the humans have been reduced to roughly 41 thousand. We even know roughly how many days it's been since the first Cylon attack. In our chart, we've correlated each population change with an event, including when each new Cylon is revealed.
All this information comes directly from the show, where most episodes begin with a population number. Numbers are also frequently bandied about in trials and policy debates. Many of these numbers were faithfully recorded, in great detail, by the amazing folks behind the Battlestar wiki. Is this emphasis on hard numbers a reflection of the U.S. obsession with numbers of dead in Iraq, or is it just part of a general trend toward realism in science fiction?
