Manchester United, Leeds United, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Everton feature.
One day of December down, now 30 left until the Transfer Window re-opens. Here is our midnight run through of the top five transfer stories of the day...
1) Napoli are set to rival Arsenal and Manchester United for German starlet Julian Draxler. Italian newspaper Corriere dello Sport claim that Rafa Benitez has made the attacking midfielder a top objective for next summer. However it appears to be The Gunners who are in pole position, with Norwegian journalist and former footballer Jan Aage Fjortoft stating Arsenal are 'big favourites'for the deal, and that Arsene Wenger speaks 'often' to the Schalke playmaker.
2) Everton have been told they cannot sign Landon Donovan on loan this January by LA Galaxy. Manager Bruce Arena has put his foot down and stated 'our players are not going anywhere', due to the tough season they have just endured. That also includes Robbie Keane, also linked with a return to the Premier League. Donovan had been loaned to Everton twice previously, and The Mirror had claimed on Friday that a third spell was close to being agreed.
3) Arsenal are preparing to make a bid for Manchester City defender Micah Richards, report The Star. Richards could be an ideal replacement for Bacary Sagna, like the Frenchman also able to play centre-back. The paper claim this deal could have legs because Richards has 18 months left on his contract, and is stalling over a new deal because he is not a first choice. While we can't see this one happening mid-season, intrigue may come from the fact Richards grew up an Arsenal fan.
4) Chelsea's Nathaniel Chalobah has been having a miserable time at Nottingham Forest, starting just four games. The teenager enjoyed a superb loan period at Watford last season and was hoping for more of the same, but it has not worked out. When this deal expires in late September, The Mirror report that fellow Championship club Leeds United have identified the youngster to aid their promotion push. Currently they sit in seventh in the division.
5) Manchester United have been linked with a move for Turkish goalkeeper Onur Kivrak, of Trabzonspor. The Metro write that the Red Devils are preparing to bid £5 million for the stopper, who would take over from Anders Lindegaard as back-up to David de Gea. Kivrak is 25 and a Turkish international. Lindegaard was last week linked with AC Milan.

Dispatch From Moscow
In my Russia, the terrorists are winning.
When my best friend's wife called me in the middle of the day yesterday, my heart sank. I was staying home to work on a story, and I wasn't expecting any calls. Besides, my friend was supposed to be in the air, having taken off that morning from the Domodedovo airport of terrorist fame, on the Tu-154 plane of terrorist fame, on the Sibir airline of terrorist fame. One of this company's other Tu-154s had blown up in the air a few days earlier, less than an hour out of Domodedovo. My friend and I had been exchanging morbid jokes about this for a couple of days. We'd each pointed out that the old Russian adage about a bomb never hitting the same spot twice had been debunked (there had been two planes). "At least," I'd said, "no one's ever been blown to pieces on the return flight."
As it turned out, my friend was fine, more or less—he'd been sitting in a plane on the runway for hours, apparently because of some new threat or rumor or fear. His wife just happened to call with a professional question.
I went back to work for a few hours—I was writing the cover story for the weekly magazine where I work. I was interviewing someone by instant messenger when my interlocutor suddenly disappeared from the screen. She came back about 30 minutes later, apologizing; she had been on the phone trying to reach her parents in Beer-Sheva, Israel, where a bomb had just gone off. They were fine, she said, adding that she would now appreciate the distraction of continuing the interview.
Working at home proved difficult. The kids were especially loud because their grandmother was in town. My mother-in-law had come from St. Petersburg especially to see 7-year-old Vova off to school. Sept. 1, known in Russia as the Day of Knowledge, is the first day of school across the country, and a first-grader's first day is usually celebrated with some fanfare. My daughter Yael, who is almost 3, was trying to compete for her grandmother's attention, showing her a photo album she has recently uncovered. It contains her birth and baby pictures, and it starts with a classic photo of the mother ridiculously pregnant, about to burst. I am naked in the picture, standing in a New York hotel room. The date in the lower-right-hand corner is 09-11-01, and lately the fact that it's the first picture in my daughter's album has been giving me the creeps. The photo was taken minutes before I found out that a plane had crashed into one of the Twin Towers, a few blocks away.
I wedged my last batch of phone calls in that short bath-and-tooth-brushing interval after supper and before bedtime reading. This was when someone told me about the explosion in Moscow. Eight dead (now the body count is up to 10), 40 wounded. What knocked the wind out of me was the location: If I hadn't stayed home from work, I would have been driving past that very spot a few minutes earlier, or a few minutes later, or right when the bomb went off. I made one more quick call to assign a reporter.
Vova was asleep on the top bunk and Yael was still trying to get comfortable on the bottom one, where I'd agreed to keep her company for a bit. She extracted a fuzzy ball from under the blanket.
"Where does this go?" she asked.
"I'll set it on the floor right here, by the bed," I said.
"But what if a strange man comes and takes it?"
"This is our house," I said. "There are no strangers here." I felt like I was lying. Not that I think strangers will be breaking into our house to steal Yael's fuzzy ball, but I was trying to impart to her a sense of safety that I didn't have. Safety just then would have felt like the usual nighttime low buzz of things left over from the day, already fading into irrelevance. Instead, in my mind I was composing a chart.
We have moved out of the city—good. Vova will be going to school outside the city—also good. But that means a daily drive on the crowded beltway—bad (lots of people, good terrorist target). If we move back to our city place, we'll hardly have to drive or use public transportation—good. But we'll be right in the center of town, where there are lots of crowds and traffic jams—bad. What's the point? How in the world can one devise an escape when I could simply have been driving home from work today? I can't keep up.
Once Yael was asleep, I got on the phone to my colleagues. The piece I'd been writing all day was now irrelevant, and I was trying to come up with a new cover story. It's difficult with a weekly. Last week, I'd called in favors to make sure I could get someone to the scene of a bus-stop bombing in the south of Moscow (four people injured). The next day I scrapped the resulting piece, because the two simultaneous plane crashes, with over 90 people dead, had overshadowed everything. Now the magazine we put to bed last week wasn't even out yet, and here was another tragedy, already doomed to obsolescence in days or even hours. I can't keep up here either.
This morning we all drove to Vova's school. It's a small private school located in a guarded, gated community just outside Moscow, and I've never been happier about it. It was probably the only school in the city, or even the country, that didn't have police and security guards posted at the door. If Vova hadn't screamed ecstatically on the drive to school every time we saw a truck full of soldiers, I may even have forgotten about terrorism for a bit.
After about an hour, the festivities at the school were over, and I got in the car to drive to work. Crossing the Moscow River on the outskirts of the city, I saw a battleship docked at the river port, where sightseeing boats usually depart. A few minutes later, the radio news announcer interrupted her report on the aftermath of yesterday's bombing to say that in southern Russia, not far from Chechnya, a school had been seized. One hundred and thirty-two children and an undetermined number of adults were being held hostage. On the way in, the terrorists had shot the school security guards and the policemen posted there for the Day of Knowledge.

Our track record of favorable results earned for clients is one reason to turn to Choulos & Wyle, but it cannot tell the whole story. The caring, focused personal attention our senior attorneys, George V.Choulos and Claude Wyle, provide clients through every phase of their cases is equally important.
Serious personal injury and wrongful death cases have been the focus of our law firm since its founding in 1983. Every working day, we stand up for the rights of the injured against negligent individuals, insurance companies, manufacturers and government entities. When our attorneys take on a case, we are in it to win and to help make our clients whole.
As avid riders, cyclists and supporters of the motorcycle and bicycle communities, we sponsor and volunteer with many local organizations and causes. We take satisfaction in the positive impact our work often has on public safety, and we are assertive advocates for sharing the road and working toward safer streets and roadways for all.
The nature of our personal injury practice enables us to not only maintain for our clients the exceptional degree of privacy required by their circumstances, but also to provide tailored service for every client's specific situation. Our attorneys and staff speak Spanish, Russian, Korean, and French, and we have ready access to interpreters for nearly every language.
When we pursue a case, the only acceptable outcome is a just settlement or verdict that helps you move forward. We also know there is tremendous value in work that exposes dangerous actions, products and property – often leading to awareness and positive changes that may save someone else in the future.
Personal injury cases have been the focus of our practice since 1983. We are among the most experienced attorneys in San Francisco when it comes to representing your interests in all types of personal injury cases.
We have found that motor vehicle accidents are by far the most common cause of injuries, but personal injury cases can spring up from any type of situation.
Because San Francisco is such a pedestrian and bicycle friendly city, many times, accidents will happen that involve people who are on foot or, in other instances, people who are riding bicycles. Unfortunately, a careless and reckless driver of a car, truck or commercial vehicle who is in a hurry or inattentive can make one bad decision that can impact another person for the rest of his or her life.
But personal injury cases can result from any number of situations. People can be injured while using defective products, slipping and falling on a poorly tended sidewalk or driveway, or while they are working on a construction site. Personal injury claims can also arise from dog bites, dangerous roadways, violence or any number of places where people do not act reasonably.
While the vast majority of personal injury cases result from negligence on someone's part, a claim can also be brought against someone who causes intentional harm. This is generally seen in assault and battery cases, which are often viewed only as criminal cases. But a civil case seeking damages for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering is also an appropriate course of action if a person is harmed from an assault and battery.
Thanks to a great climate and countless places to enjoy the open road, the San Francisco Bay Area is home to thousands of motorcycle riders. That love of the open road is tough to beat, but in exchange for the sense of freedom that riding a motorcycle can bring, the risk of riding and being exposed to injury is a trade-off that many riders must accept.
Although it is necessary for cars and trucks to proactively watch out for bikers on streets and highways, that isn't always the case. Unfortunately, accidents involving motorcycles happen with a high degree of frequency due to the negligence of other drivers. In addition, motorcycle riders also face other hazards on the road from poor road and weather conditions, as well as from defective products and many other safety issues.
Motorcycle riders often are viewed as risk takers or rule breakers, even though most motorcycle riders are law abiding and ride safely. Because of the sometimes negative view of motorcyclists, motorcycle cases can be more challenging. Therefore, an experienced motorcycle attorney has their work cut out for them when trying to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, disability and pain and suffering.
The key to winning a motorcycle accident case and getting the maximum settlement amount is in retaining the services of an experienced attorney as early in the process as possible. Having a veteran motorcycle attorney on your side early on will keep you from making costly mistakes as you move forward with your case.
As lifelong riders, our attorneys not only protect the rights of motorcyclists, we also support motorcycle clubs and sponsor a motorcycle race team. Additionally, we sponsor motorcycle events, particularly through the Bay Area Riders Forum, or BARF.
There is no denying that San Francisco is one of the great walking cities of the world despite its traffic issues. Because of the City's and the region's natural beauty, many people know the best way to get the most out of the Bay Area is on their feet. For many others, walking is the preferred way to go from place to place while doing business or commuting to school.
But having to compete with cable cars, autos, trucks, buses and bike riders, as well as some of the urban hazards found not only in San Francisco but in most all major cities, can create dangerous situations for pedestrians. Most of the time people can successfully dodge vehicles, but walkers must also contend with other hazards. Slippery conditions on streets and sidewalks, common areas that are poorly maintained, trip and fall hazards on sidewalks and alleyways, poorly lit areas that hide hazards, and construction zones can be especially dangerous.
The bottom line is that you shouldn't be discouraged from walking in the city, but you need to remain alert and responsible with so much activity taking place all around. Despite your best efforts, if you are the victim of a pedestrian accident while you're walking, you could sustain anything from a few cuts and scrapes to major injuries like broken bones or significant damage to your arms, legs, head or torso.
From our experience, we know that trying to recoup damages after you are involved in a pedestrian accident can be a long and drawn out affair. After all, it is in an insurance company's best interests to protect their bottom line. But through our considerable resources and experience, we know what to expect and how long the process may take. Retaining us means you can free yourself from a major legal burden and focus on regaining your health.
We actively support alternative forms of transportation and are strong advocates of bicycle riders throughout the Bay Area. As avid cyclists ourselves, we are proud to sponsor the Marin County Bicycle Coalition, Safe Routes to School, and the Santa Clara San Mateo Bicycle Coalition.
Because we get out and ride the roads on a regular basis, we know and understand the unique perils associated with bike riding in Northern California. We're able to take that first-hand knowledge and put it to work for our clients who are the victims of bicycle accidents.
While bicycle riding is an exhilarating experience, it can also result in serious injuries including broken bones, head trauma, spinal cord damage, internal organ injuries and other serious and life-threatening trauma.
Many times, despite taking all appropriate safety precautions, bicycle riders become victims of accidents through no fault of their own. Careless car, bus, and truck drivers, road hazards and debris, slippery conditions and other similar challenges all can have a big impact on the safety of riders.
When an accident occurs, we're able to represent cycling clients and give them an added advantage using our first-hand knowledge and decades of experience representing bicycle riders. We can recover the maximum amount of damages for our clients either by negotiating a settlement or, if needed, going to trial and securing payments for lost wages, medical expenses and pain and suffering.
Choulos, Choulos & Wyle proudly represents clients in San Francisco and surrounding Bay Area communities.

|Re: Possible problem in org.apache.derby.impl.store.access.BackingStoreHashTableFromScan
|Fri, 16 Mar 2007 17:44:39 GMT
this definitely looks like a bug, and I think you have the right analysis. You should report a bug in JIRA with your findings and test case. If you are interested in working on it, some things to consider: 1) would need to get the holdability info all the way down from execution into the call. I think the interesting place is in java/engine/org/apache/derby/impl/sql/execute/HashScanResultSet.java I didn't see holdability right off in this file, maybe someone can add the right way to get this info in this class? 2) need to check if temporary files are going to work right in holdability case. It looks like when actual backing to disk was added the holdability case was not considered. Does anyone know if derby temporary files will work correctly if held open past commit. Off hand I don't remember the process where they are cleaned up - is that currently keyed by commit? 3) Are you interested in a workaround? If the hash got created in memory rather than disk then this would probably work. I think there are some flags to force bigger in memory hash result sets.

Watch how to make this recipe.
Make the chocolate fruits: Use a ladle to fill a fruit mold with white chocolate. When it is full, empty it into the bowl of chocolate. The inside of the mold should be evenly coated with chocolate. Wipe the edge of the mold clean on the side of the bowl and place it upside down on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. Once the chocolate starts to harden, about 5 minutes, scrape the edge clean with a paring knife. Repeat to make as many fruits as you will need for your centerpiece. For my centerpiece, I used lemons, pears, oranges, bananas, pineapples and apples. When the chocolate has set, remove the fruits from the molds.
Make the leaves: Use a pastry brush dipped in white chocolate to coat one side of the plastic leaf. Allow the chocolate to set and then peel off the plastic leaf. Repeat to make as many leaves as you would like. Use the same technique to make smaller leaves for the pineapple stem.
Assemble the pineapple stem. I used a plastic dome mold to give my pineapple stem its final shape. You could also use a small glass bowl. Place a small dollop of white chocolate in the bottom of the mold. Add leaves resting the ends in the chocolate and the tops along the side of the bowl. Add another layer. Continue this process to make as big of a stem as you like. When the chocolate has set, pop the stem out of the mold.
Paint the fruit and the leaves: If you use an airbrush, simply place a few drops of color in the receptacle of the airbrush and decorate as you are inspired. Use an airbrush to paint the pineapple stem and the leaves green. Use tempered chocolate to adhere the stem to the top of the pineapple. Paint each of the fruit, as you are inspired to do so.
Make a base: Place metal rulers on a parchment paper lined surface so they form an open space that measures about 24½ by 16 inches. If you don¿t have metal rulers, you could also use modeling clay or wood rulers. Place a very large cake ring or a round of aluminum flashing that is 13½ inches in diameter inside the space. Pour tempered dark chocolate inside the ring and open space to form a 1/2-inch-thick layer. When the chocolate has set, remove the ring and the rulers and peel off the parchment paper. The ring is inside but separate from the rest of the base so you can move the finished cornucopia to any position.
Make the base supports: Place metal rulers on a parchment paper lined surface so they form an open square that measures about 8 inches. Pour tempered chocolate inside the space to form a 1/2-inch-thick layer. When the chocolate begins to set but is not yet hard, use a knife to cut a line that resembles 3 half circles end to end. The curves in this piece match the curves in the mold of the cornucopia. When we are ready to set the cornucopia in place, it will rest on these triangles. When the chocolate has set, remove the rulers and peel off the parchment paper.
Make the chocolate cornucopia: The mold I used was about 12 inches wide and 30 inches long. Use a ladle to pour some chocolate into 1 half of the mold. Use a pastry brush to distribute the chocolate over the entire mold. You may want to repeat this step so the finished piece is about 3/8-inch thick. Repeat with the other half of the mold. Clip the 2 halves of the mold together. Place the mold inside a box and pour chocolate inside of it. Rotate the mold so the chocolate evenly coats the inside. Pour the excess chocolate back into the mold and place the mold upside down on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. When the chocolate is set, remove the mold.
Stand the cornucopia on its open end. Use tempered chocolate to adhere the triangular base pieces to the cornucopia. Position them so they will support the cornucopia when it is standing in its final position.
Prepare the paint sprayer: Place equal amounts of dark chocolate and cocoa butter over a double boiler and melt until smooth with no lumps. Place the cornucopia in the freezer for about 20 minutes. The surface of the chocolate must be chilled so the chocolate coating will harden upon contact, giving it the desired texture.
Remove the cornucopia from the freezer and place on a flat surface. Place the chocolate mixture in a clean paint sprayer and use it to spray the dessert with the chocolate. Tip: Cleanup will be easier if you use a cardboard box as a backdrop to the mold when you spray it. Spray the chocolate with the sprayer to give it a chocolate velvet texture.
Fill the fruits: Use a piping bag or offset spatula or spoon to fill each fruit mold with the appropriate sorbet flavor. Fill completely and place into the molded chocolate fruit back in the freezer until ready to use. You can also use tempered chocolate to close some of the fruit molds Tip: This process can be done 1 to 2 days in advance.
Assembly: Tip: Anything that touches the cornucopia after it has been sprayed will leave a mark. If you have to move it, place your hand well inside the mold and move it by touching only the inside. Transfer the sprayed cornucopia onto the circle of the base. You can touch the base to rotate the presentation into any position.
Arrange the frozen chocolate fruits and leaves within the cornucopia.

Turkana, Kenya: five years without rain
The region of Turkana in the North of Kenya has gone for over five years without a good rain capable of making the grazing lands grow enough grass to feed the region's livestock, its sole source of economic livelihood. Turkana is just one of many regions in the Horn of Africa that have been affected by the serious drought that has put more than 13 million people at risk.
The photographs speak for themselves. But the stories of the people of Turkana confirm the urgent need for food aid, and the necessity of developing long-term projects that will enable them to face catastrophic climate events, which are occurring with ever greater frequency.

Broadcast domain vs. Collision domain
The broadcast domain is a domain which is a kind of a fragment or a division of computer networking in which all the nodes can be broadcasted through the data link.
The broadcast domain can work on one network or (through a bridge) can work on a different LAN network.
There is only one single broadcast domain which connects all of the devices and this happens as a consequence to the fact that the devices that is being used in the first place, through accessing data sends out a broadcast to all the other devices and they get a copy of it.
So in that case, what is a collision domain?
A collision domain can only be used in certain ways, meaning that only one device can be used at a time. If two devices are to be used simultaneously on a LAN network, then collision would occur and thus make the network ineffective.
That is why modern networking uses switches to evade these collisions and their reoccurrence.

Quick Reference
A term referring to the relatively informal and casual activity of sailing in boats, rather than to more formal, organized, and competitive activities such as rowing or sailing. The term has the associations of idling along the river, punting being one such variant; and it is evoked in the name given to the classic leisure headgear, the 'boater'.

The Bible
The Bible (Old and New) is fully inspired by the Spirit of God and is the greatest revelation of who God is, reveals the Triune God (Father, Son and Spirit) His plan for the salvation of humanity and His Second Coming. Although written by many different people it is trustworthy and through the Holy Spirit, leads us in to all Truth.
The Person of God
We believe there is one living and true God who has revealed Himself in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, (John 10:36; 20:21, 22) infinitely perfect and eternal in existence, and equal in glory, majesty, and power (Matthew 28:19; Luke 3:21, 22). The Father is the creator of all things (Matt 6.9).
Jesus came as a human to reveal the heart of the Father and to bring Salvation to humanity (Hebrews 9.28). He is fully man and fully God, He died and was resurrected and seated at the right hand of the Father (Ephesians 1.20).
The Holy Spirit is the comforter, the revealer of Jesus Christ and the cross, the empowerer. He is the revealer of spiritual gifts.
God revealed Himself in the Old Testament as Jehovah Rophe (Exodus 15.25) – the God who heals. Jesus healed people through the power of the Holy Spirit and gives us the same Spirit today. Jesus told his disciples to 'heal the sick' (Matt 10.8) and this still applies today.
The Presence of God
We value the Presence of God. In Exodus 33 Moses declared that the Presence of God was non negotiable: 'If your Presence doesn't go with us, do not send us'. We believe that the Presence of God is at the core of the Gospel; that Immanuel, God is with us. It is Righteousness Peace and Joy (Romans 14.17). It is full of laughter and freedom. It is a Consuming Fire (Hebrews 12.29).
The Supernatural
The Bible is filled with supernatural encounters with God. Jesus was a miracle worker through the power of the Holy Spirit and gave us the same Spirit who would be with us forever (John 14.16). There is no difference between what the early church had what we have today.
The Supernatural power of the Holy Spirit is accessible through the gift of faith (1 Corinthians 12.9) and is here today.
Presence of God transforms lives, supernaturally or through everyday acts of kindness. Every revival in history left the building and transformed the world around it.
We believe there is one Body. We believe in cross denominational friendships and value relationship across theological difference. We believe God is not moving through one denomination or church but in many different streams. Jesus prayed that we would recognise the Oneness together which we share in the Body of Christ (John 17.21).
Honour, Honesty and accountability
We believe in being real, and that genuine leadership is found in openness and honesty. Honour is about valuing someone for who they really are, not what they do. We want purity to be at the heart of what we are about, so transparency is essential to everything.

So you limit height, now you cause buildings to be built deep. Result: more impervious surface. So you limit setbacks so the houses can't be built deep. Result: less building space per lot. Less building space per lot limits architectural design and LOWERS property values. Seriously, what is that you want? Smaller houses? Legislate charm? What if I think that the smaller houses should be demolished for larger ones; should I be able to tell people build big or move? It is hard to believe any true liberal independent thinker would want to legislate creativity. Yes I believe that when a homeowner buys property in a single family neighborhood of homes, should be able to build/renovate a single family home as they see fit. This builds neighborhood diversity, promotes individual creativity and has proven be the most successful way to stabilize a neighborhood. Imagine what is going to happen when the majority of ITB big fat and happy citizens arent big fat and happy anymore. I see a class action law suit coming.
Frankie, I don't know where you live. I have never stated you werent entitled to your opinion quite the opposite. I would fight for the right that you get to have an opinion. However, in a free society you shouldnt be able to legislate taste as the greatest artist might not have been. You "state you made an informed researched decision". If a property owner bought a piece of land with certain rights and the city takes them away without the owner asking for it that is Predatory Downzoning. Maybe if your foundation was not repairable and the only way you could stay in the area you have lived for over 30 years was to split your lot you would have a different view? Especially since your next door neighbor with the same size and shaped lot was able to do the same thing. You say "Best for the neighborhood" that was the same argument used in the 80s to prevent the 3 houses built on Royster all 2 story, all of which only enhanced the "Neighborhood" with wonderful, nice new families. Of course "neighbors" were going around saying that "condo's" were going to be built, property values would be lowered etc...just like now. Yet the reality of the situation was the exact opposite, another example of Neighbors lying to neighbors to get their own way. You state best for the neighborhood. Name one thing that benefited the neighborhood? As it was proven the rezoning of the property could only affect her property. Are you just against building in general? Do you want architectural control of all renovations and teardowns? The only thing consistent about the fallon park area is that it was built predominately with single family homes in a low density area. The acreage range from .11 acres to over 5 acres per property, some houses have large font yards some dont, there are ranch houses and 3 story houses. According to AHA guidelines the whole area would be designated R-6 with exceptions of parts of White Oak Rd. and Lake Dr. You also state R6 might benefit you. There are only 4 lots in the area that was affected area with any major benefits and 2 have been renovated which negates any gain. It is easy to have grandiose views when it doesnt affect your QOL. One neighbor who was on your side right up until they found out that the ghost line lots they had might be taken away and they were planning on using that money for their childs college education. My intention was to spread facts and point out that certain neighbors dont always have your best interest at hand. Reinforcing that civil liberties and freedom are much more important than legislating individuals views of taste. As long as you state generalities I will state the facts and ramifications to the individual homeowner. Someone has to look out for the small guy; as self appointed neighborhood leaders have proven they dont. As for painting you, I do not. I am just allowing you to paint yourself, as I point out the colors.
Frankie: You said it,, YOU "DON"T REALLY KNOW, Yet you rendered it your business. I am sorry if this sounds harsh but when you force someone from their home it has consequences. When you make ill informed decisions your credibility is lessoned. I signed the petition then found out the real story and asked to have it removed. However, I was told it was still on the document turned in to the City Council. I gave you two examples 1. When a petition states "other subdivisions will follow" because of a precedent being set, it should be the truth. However that has been proven to be FACTUALLY INNACURATE. 2. People were told condos would be built to get them to sign a petition . I gave you solutions to the tax burden issue, you ignored it. I answered all of your assertions with fact and you just move to another issue. Last but not least, it isnt my problem; it was my poor neighbor who suffers. I am considering selling my home because I dont want my children growing up in an area where neighbors lie to neighbors to get their own way.
Great lets review: First spot zoning is not illegal and it wasnt spot zoning. 2. the owner bought a home that was r6 zoned 3. The scale rep who sent out notes own the meeting even said the precedent that would be set would be limited to a small area. 4. Using that precedent not one thing would change for the entire area according to staff because of the self imposed conditions. 5. 2 small lots you speak of are larger than a lot of lots in the surrounding area in fact if you split them they would be in the top 3 for road frontage of the respective streets. (Not exactly out of character) As 2 houses would be placed across from 3. 6. As far as front and side yard setbacks go, they are all over the map in the area because of the curvy roads and DIVERSE designs. As the neighborhood was built to what in todays term be designate R6 the original zoning. Why do we need to make more non conforming homes? 7. You define a neighborhood by what? The situation you speak of was plagued with lies and deception. When a petition states "other subdivisions will follow" because of a precedent being set, it should be the truth. However that has been proven to be FACTUALLY INNACURATE. People were told condos would be built to get them to sign a petition about something that had nothing to do with their personal quality of life. So I guess in your eyes it is OK to tell Lies, distort facts and gang up on an older single woman because she wasn't part of the "new" click. This was an old fashion witch hunt,, glad to know you supported it! FYI 15 of the 20 closest neighbors supported her (Thats a 75% majority).. Glad to know that neighbors who live two miles away have more input than those within 200 ft. So now we have one McMansion going up which I have to look at. Thanks Frankie, you helped kick a women out of her house. But I will be getting new neighbors because a click had to have their way.
Frankie, I saw what the SCALE people did to the retiring school teacher. I listened to both sides. She bought a house that was zoned a certain way and people lied to her to get it changed. Then when the property couldn't be repaired and she wanted to stay in the neighborhood. Most of the neighbors rallied behind her. Yet the scale members went out covertly spreading inaccurate propaganda to the entire area because they thought she might be profiting from something. Meantime she was working with the bordering neighbors showing the height and size restrictions, she herself wanted to put on the property to protect the neighborhood. Seeing what these people put that woman through sickens me. All I fight for is to be afforded the same rights I had when I bought my property as I should have now. Frankie, if you and others want to preserve character to your own perception and don't want change, get together and restrict your properties, you have that right. If you have the majority you want have to worry too much about over development will you? However, you dont have a right to put your perception of taste, character etc.. into legislation that will affect my property.
Frankie I did forget to ask. I am for supporting property tax limits for citizens who have lived in the same home for 15 years or more who meet certain income requirements. This would allow citizens who have been lucky enough to have good property appreciation not be burdened by excessive taxes. This is not a giveaway it is merely a progressive tax on an asset that has not been realized. Since you havent realized the gain you shouldnt be overburdened with it. Whats your take?
Frankie: The post is quite accurate and your spin does not make it true. Larger houses attract families which equate to more people. More People moving inward leads to less sprawl. I guess you ignored the post about bicket place, hayes barton pool and the area at large. Which makes me wonder how long you have lived here. Fact: your rights aren't in dangered, only your view of taste. 2nd: Historically the area was built without much regulation and 2 story homes were allowed 3rd forcing houses to be built lower and deeper causes large impervious surfaces which result in storm water run off problems. Matt B. I know you want to be on the planning commission. so I guess it would be to your benefit to know that 5 pts east imposed an overlay with just over 50% approval limiting height and size. If a neighborhood gets a 100% and wants to restrict itself, then I am 100% behind it. However if any property owner wants to be excluded he or she should be. Whats your opinion?

The Badger Rescue Animal Transport Services made our first run in October of 2008. What started out as an idea by our co-founders has become a lifeline for the many shelters, impound facilities and rescue organizations operating in Wisconsin. BRATS is an all volunteer non-profit organization incorporated in the state of Wisconsin. Our service is available to members of AWARE and reputable shelters and rescues in Wisconsin. We do not get involved in interstate transports as we are stretched to the limit moving animals around within our state boundries.
We work closely with our shelter and rescue partners to stay on a transport schedule everyone can accomodate. Our members are based all over the state of Wisconsin. We all work full time at our "real" jobs which is why most of our volunteers transport at night or on weekends. On occasion we do ask that the shelters or rescues involved to help us with legs of the transports in order to get the job done. We will not drive in bad weather conditions and try to stay off the roads during busy holiday travel times.
Safety is #1 with BRATS. We have established safety protocols for everything from driver safety to sanitizing our equipment after a transport. We would be happy to share what we have learned. Just ask us!

Ray Bradbury Quotes About MorningQuotes about: Morning
If you stuff yourself full of poems, essays, plays, stories, novels, films, comic strips, magazines, music, you automatically explode every morning like Old Faithful. I have never had a dry spell in my life, mainly because I feed myself well, to the point of bursting. I wake early and hear my morning voices leaping around in my head like jumping beans. I get out of bed to trap them before they escape.
Sunsets are loved because they vanish. Flowers are loved because they go. The dogs of the field and the cats of the kitchen are loved because soon they must depart. These are not the sole reasons, but at the heart of morning welcomes and afternoon laughters is the promise of farewell. In the gray muzzle of an old dog we see goodbye. In the tired face of an old friend we read long journeys beyond returns.
We're all fools," said Clemens, "all the time. It's just we're a different kind each day. We think, I'm not a fool today. I've learned my lesson. I was a fool yesterday but not this morning. Then tomorrow we find out that, yes, we were a fool today too. I think the only way we can grow and get on in this world is to accept the fact we're not perfect and live accordingly.
And there, row upon row, with the soft gleam of flowers opened at morning, with the light of this June sun glowing through a faint skin of dust, would stand the dandelion wine. Peer through it at the wintry day - the snow melted to grass, the trees were reinhabitated with bird, leaf, and blossoms like a continent of butterflies breathing on the wind. And peering through, color sky from iron to blue. Hold summer in your hand, pour summer in a glass, a tiny glass of course, the smallest tingling sip for children; change the season in your veins by raising glass to lip and tilting summer in
I wake up in the morning and I lie in bed, and it's the time I call "the theater of morning." All these thoughts run around in my head, between my ears when I'm waking up. It's not a dream state, but it's not completely awake either. So all these metaphors run around and then I pick one and I get out of bed and I do it. I'm very lucky.

Refusal To Enter Requested Surname on Birth Certificate Did Not Violate Free Exercise Rights
This is from religionclause.blogspot.com which you can find here:
"In Nix El v. Williams, (D DC, March 30, 2016), the D.C. federal district court rejected a claim by the father of a newborn daughter that his religious rights were infringed when D.C. Department of Health officials refused to list his daughter's surname on her birth certificate as "Nix El" rather than as "Nix", the parents' surname. D.C. statutes require the surname to match that of a family member. Plaintiff, who is a member of the Moorish Science Temple, contended that he wished to add "El" to his daughter's name because it is a title of nobility. In the suit, plaintiff had asked for declaratory and injunctive relief, compensatory damages of $136 million plus punitive damages of $1 million per day for each day his daughter did not have a birth certificate."

Windows 7
Try This,
I have had a few problems with this broadcom adaptor myself.
When I downloaded the optional update for the driver via Windows 7 update system, it seems to stop working properly just really slow like 5kb/sec.
I have not completely figured out how to get it work to its full potential but its working faster now.
Go to your control panel>system and security>system>device manager
expand network adaptors>broadcom 802.11g network adaptor >rightclick_properties>click_driver_tab>click_roll back driver.
This wil take it it to its previously installed driver, restart the sytem and see if that works, it did for me.
Im on 35kb/sec now, really weak wireless signal but its better than nothing
I dont understand how downloading the proper driver makes it not work, stupid!
Hope this helps!!!

There is a tendency to make the most extreme comparisons and to take the most extreme positions on all issues for the sake of appearing different, for attention, for profit, for effect and for a sense of community. This is dishonest but for the most inconsequential, fun and amusing to watch even when you are not part of it. It is a catharthic exercise to relieve stress but like catarthic activity at some point it becomes hard to say which feelings are contrived and which views are real. I think there is a need to be more straightforward in times likes these.
Sometimes I felt no conviction in my writing and no honesty in my hatred when I was part of the internet atheist and skeptic community. It all felt so rehersed and exagerrated. It felt like our enemies were scare crows propped up to instill hatred to create a sense of community, to forge tribalism. I believe the same has happened to those on the other side of the argument. It's the same everwhere- the fans and the haters – I was going to say "going at each others throats" but that would have been an hyperbole or perhaps just an overused metaphor. It's a waste of everyone's time. It is a form of speicialized virtue signaling that caters to online communities. But ultimately only provides a temporary fix for a sense of belonging by binding it to a trend on the internet.
I do not intent to overstate the significance of the interenet on pollitics in a post about hyperboles on the internet. The way that humans act on the internet and in real life is different, at least in the non-autistic part of humanity. However the anonymity of the interenet allows individuals to forge a new identity for themselves and the affiliations that go with it. So long as somebody remains anonymous the internet will judge on their opinions and this can be both an inhibiting and facilitating factor to honesty in discourse. For instance I consider myself part of the anime community, I have certain opinions about Japanese animations but how many of them are my own and how many of them have I gradually shifted inorder to fit into the anime community or better put to feel part of the anime community. Everything from the kind of words I use (whether it is broken Japanese or standard English) to the opinions I have is significantly affected (I was going to say "dependent on" but that would have been an hyperbole) on my affiliation to the community. This isn't to say that we must keep away from all communities and therefore all external opinions but only that we should always strive to maintain an indipendent mind. The best we can do is be conscious about the words we use and whether we actually mean them and to forgo if other people in the "community" will think of them.
I think the exeption to my criticisms is satire, like Spitting Image and Yes, Minister. Satire can never go too far though it should strive to. I just used two British examples because they are very good but also because it makes me feel British. Is there something wrong with that? No, as long as I acually think that they are two of the best examples I have got then it isn't wrong.
But then what about people understating things, using very bad metaphors also known as euphemisms, for apologia- well that isn't as prevalent in the internet as hyperboles though it certainly not absent, is a topic for another post and for another night. I need to go to sleep. Good night. Now let's look for an image for this post. Ah that looks just right.

(BaseballStL) -- David Freese was back in the lineup for the series finale against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday afternoon. It was his second game played since returning from the 15-day disabled list on Monday.
Freese, who had been dealing with a lower back strain, last played in the 13-4 home opener loss after a three-game rehab stint with Memphis.
For manager Mike Matheny, it is about keeping the bench players fresh while maintaining the starters' health.
"I don't think any of them want the day off," Matheny said prior to Wednesday's finale. "After today we got a pretty long stretch.
"There's going to be some days where maybe they're going to be barking a little bit, but hopefully we can even beat it to the punch where they're getting a day to help them through the long stretches."
The Cardinals will be idle on Thursday before embarking on a stretch of 13 games without an off-day, including 10 on the road, against the likes of the Milwaukee Brewers, Pittsburgh Pirates, Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals.
Matt Adams, who hit a go-ahead pinch-hit home run in a 5-1 win the night before, was given the start at first base for the series finale against the Reds. Matheny said the team has put an emphasis on keeping Adams fresh throughout the season.
Allen Craig, a career .188 hitter in 18 games against Cincinnati, did not start after snapping a six-game hit streak on Tuesday.
With Thursday being an off-day, the Cardinals kept Yadier Molina in the starting lineup for Wednesday. It has been a common practice to rest a catcher on a day game after a night game.

Frank L. Palmer House
North Pomona, California
The Greenes designed a house for Frank L. Palmer in 1912, though no evidence of its actual construction survives. Henry Greene handled this project, likely because of his brother's focus on the Cordelia Culbertson project at that time. The design shows a return to the firm's interest in the Craftsman idiom and includes many exterior features associated with their earlier work, including exposed beams and rafters and structural posts supported by stone pillars.

- Pharmacovigilance Inspectors Working Group
The Pharmacovigilance Inspectors Working Group (PhV IWG) was established by the European Medicines Agency with the remit to focus on harmonisation and co-ordination of PhV-related activities at the European Union (EU) level.
In particular, PhV IWG is involved in the preparation of new and revised guidance and EU procedures relating to PhV inspections.
The group provides a link with other groups, such as:
- Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP);
- Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) and its Pharmacovigilance Working Party;
- Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC).
These involve joint meetings with pharmacovigilance assessors and contributions to training of inspectors and assessors.
The PhV inspectors maintain a dialogue with the inspectors of good clinical practice and good manufacturing practice.
Mandate and work programme
More information on the PhV IWG's role and activities is available in the Human and Veterinary PhV inspection policies and in the group's mandate, workplan and annual report.
The Pharmacovigilance Inspectors Working Group draws on the expertise of Member States' inspectorates.
PhV IWG meets four times a year at the European Medicines Agency with the representatives of PhV inspectorates involved in inspections related to human and veterinary products, across the European Economic Area. Observers from candidate countries and Switzerland also participate in the meetings.
The Compliance and Inspections Department chairs and provides secretarial support to the group.
The work of the Working Group is supported by PhV assessors subgroup.

Canadian dollar dips below 70 cents US before recovering
Oil drops to its lowest price since 2003
The Canadian dollar has dropped below the 70-cent US level for the first time since May 2003.
When stock markets closed on Tuesday, the loonie was changing hands at 70.13 cents US, down by about a fifth of a cent after earlier dipping below the 70-cent threshold for the first time since May 2003.
- 7 things that could go horribly wrong with the economy in 2016
- Big banks predict rocky year for Canada's economy in 2016
- TIMELINE: What the world looked like the last time the loonie was this low
That means one U.S. dollar can purchase almost $1.43 Canadian.
The currency's historic low is 61.79 cents US — set in January 2002 — but it hit an all-time high of 110.3 cents U.S. in November 2007 as Canada's resource-heavy economy benefited from global demand for its exports.
The Canadian dollar was also dragged down by oil, which briefly dipped below $30 US a barrel for the first time since Jean Chrétien was prime minister.
The price of oil has now declined every single trading day of 2016.
Much of the loonie's weakness is in comparison to the U.S. dollar and not necessarily against other currencies.
"The U.S. dollar becomes a refuge, and that's what we've seen in the last few days," said Patrick Leblond, an expert in finance at the University of Ottawa.
Stock indexes, meanwhile, staged a big rally to close out the day, with the Toronto Stock Exchange turning a 120-point loss at one point into a 54-point gain to close at 12,373.
The Dow Jones industrial average and broader S&P 500 were both up by about one per cent each on the day.
Despite the gains later in the day, the trading began amid a sour mood, summed up in a report from the Royal Bank of Scotland, which advised clients to "sell everything" in a report early Tuesday.
"This all looks similar to 2008," the bank's research economist Andrew Roberts said. "We dust off our old mantra: this is about return of capital, not return on capital."

The Netherlands has withdrawn its ambassador to Iran in protest of a Dutch-Iranian woman's death at the hands of Iranian authorities. The move came amid revelations she may have died during torture.
Iranian claims that Bahrami was hanged are under dispute
Dutch officials say the Netherlands is recalling its ambassador to Iran in protest of a Dutch-Iranian woman's execution last week.
The Dutch Foreign Ministry made the announcement on Monday after Iranian officials reportedly buried Zahra Bahrami's body far from the Iranian capital of Tehran. She was 46.
"We were dismayed at the way the Iranians treated her bodily remains," said a ministry spokesman.
"The family was entitled to receive the remains. But she was buried 400 kilometers (249 miles) away from Tehran so the family could not attend the funeral."
Cause of death under dispute
Bahrami was born in Iran and became a naturalized Dutch citizen
The Netherlands had already frozen diplomatic relations with Iran after an Iranian public prosecutor announced Bahrami was hanged on January 29 for smuggling cocaine.
However, Iranian blogs and news websites have reported that Bahrami actually died during torture by Iranian officials.
Her family says Iranian authorities fabricated the drug charges after arresting her for participating in anti-government protests last December while visiting relatives.
During her detention, Iranian authorities denied Bahrami access to Dutch consular services, arguing Iran does not recognize dual citizenship.
There was no immediate response from Iran about the Dutch ambassador's withdrawal.

Editor: Martin Kuebler
The Dutch government said it was freezing contacts with Iran after the hanging of an Iranian-Dutch woman. The woman was executed for drug smuggling after initially being arrested for taking part in protests in 2009. (29.01.2011)
Germany and Iran are closer to resolving the case of two journalists detained in Iran since October. Iran's foreign minister has said their release could be accelerated if the company the two were working for apologizes. (08.01.2011)

Li Hongzhang (李鴻章, Li is his family name) was a leading statesman of the late Qing Dynasty of China. He was born in Hefei (合肥), Anhui Province (安徽省). I visited his former residence (李鴻章故居) in Huaihe Road (淮河路) in Hefei, in 2003, when it was my 1st year in college.
Although Li's image in China remains largely controversial, there's no doubt that he made significant contributions to defending China from being colonized, industrial and military modernization in China, and overseas Chinese people's rights.
Li and some other government officials started an attempt to industrialize China, by learning modern science, technologies and engineering from western countries, in the 1860s, which was named the Self-Strengthening Movement (洋務運動). During this movement, Li heavily sponsored the building of a modernized navy, the Beiyang Fleet (北洋水師), which contributed important defending in the 1st Sino-Japanese War. Although China lost that war, if there's no Beiyang Fleet, China would have lost much faster. And the result of the war was due to the fact that Japan was an industrialized country, while China just started industrializing. It's not Li's fault.
In 1896, Li toured Europe and the United States, where he made a great effort advocating reform of the American immigration policies that had greatly restricted Chinese immigration after the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 (renewed in 1892).
Brief translation: Li was an important military and political official in the late Qing Dynasty. He was born in 1823 in Hefei. He died in 1901 in Beijing and was buried in Hefei. The houses that belong to the Li family occupied a huge place. This former residence, which is about 2000 square meters (about 21.5 thousand square feet), is only part of them. The houses are typical late Qing style. Li's former residence opens to public since September 27, 1999.

Total Time: 14 min
1. Combine the soy sauce, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon pepper, 1 tablespoon rosemary, and the thyme and sage in a zipper-lock bag; add the lamb. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag; turn to coat the lamb with the marinade ingredients. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
2. While the lamb is marinating, prepare the white bean ragout. Combine the cannellini beans, 1/2 cup of their reserved juices, 1 tablespoon rosemary, the demi-glace concentrate, and the lemon zest in a saucepan.
3. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium low and continue to simmer the ragout for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the ragout becomes too thick, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the reserved juices from the beans to adjust the consistency. Keep warm.
4. Spray the broiler rack with nonstick cooking spray; preheat the broiler.
5. Remove the lamb chops from the marinade. Discard the marinade and brush off any excess herbs that may have stuck to the lamb. Be sure to wipe any excess marinade off the bone or they will burn under the broiler. Season the chops with salt and pepper.
6. Broil the lamb chops 5 inches from the heat until done to taste, 7-10 minutes on each side for medium.
7. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the white bean ragout onto a warm plate and nestle 2 of the lamb chops in the sauce.

The Q1-09 door is closing – Are you on target?
Between a DJIA that dropped into the mid-6,000 range, a continued loss of jobs, ponzi schemes that seem to be coming up left and right, there is certainly no shortage of news events to distract us from the job at hand. While I am normally one to go through every peripheral news source and scan for info that might give me cause to adjust forecasts or gain some insight into sales channels, it seems most of the news lately has been more of a distraction. I'm not exactly sure when the switch was flipped, but it seems for the most part I have shut most of the information out and have retrenched and narrowed the focus to only what is happening in my specific industry. Right or wrong, that's my approach right now.
Not sure if it's a source of validation, but we are coming up on the close of Q1 and have only a few days left to get last minute orders out the door. I am pleased to say that Revenues will hit our expectations, employee morale is good, Operating Expenses have been kept in check, and we will actually pay out nominal bonuses in Q1. No, I'm not particularly worried since hopefully nothing that will occur in the last 3-days will change what has already happened in the first 87-days of the Quarter. Staying focused on our target was not something that started in the last few weeks, but something that started in the first week of January. Monitoring open orders, monitoring incoming shipments to see what might be late, contacting customers to confirm order activity, reviewing A/R activity to monitor collections…and the list goes on. Nothing can be left to chance in this environment and you have to proceed as if the entire existence of the company and achieving your annual goal will hinge on what happens each week, and cumulatively, each the month.
We'll close the Quarter next week, we'll validate our assumptions regarding Q1, and determine if we need to alter those assumptions in any way going into Q2. Don't get me wrong, it's something we've already had discussions on and incorporate into our weekly discussions. Where are we against Budget? Slightly off, but then again, I've written about the Budget, how that document is dated from the time it's published, and where I then put a heavier reliance on the Forecast in order to incorporate unforeseen elements in the market that weren't there during the budgeting process. With respect to your company's results, hopefully you already know where you're going to finish and are already far into discussions for Q2 activities….because it's already here.
Thanks for reading. . . .

Interest in plasmids, Herbert Boyer
Interviewee: Herbert Boyer. Herb Boyer talks about Stanley Cohen's and his interest in plasmids as vectors for DNA. (DNAi Location: Manipulation > Revolution > Players > Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen > Interest in plasmids)
We both had an interest in plasmids, these are small mini-chromosomes, usually non-essential for bacterial existence. But they had a strong medical importance because these plasmids carried genes that gave bacteria resistance to antibiotics, so they have a big medical importance, and Stanley had an interest in them. Also because they were small pieces of DNA they could be isolated and some of their properties could be manipulated and you could do experiments with them.

|Definitely Not About Race
|Written by Eleazar David Meléndez, BT Contributor
|June 2017
The one topic that really, truly doesn't affect decision-making downtown
In anticipation of the Memorial Day weekend, those taking advantage of the unofficial start of the summer tend to go through a yearly ritual. Whether it's making plans to visit cemeteries and honor the war dead as intended by the holiday's founders, buying the extra-large pack of hot dogs for the traditional backyard barbecue, or scanning the newspaper inserts for the best deals in mattresses, the holiday weekend in late May carries with it the weight of practiced ceremony.
In parts of Miami Beach and downtown Miami, residents engage in a tried-and-true yearly habit: badmouthing Urban Beach Week. To hear people tell their friends about how they're getting the heck out of Dodge for three days, you'd think a Category 4 hurricane was barreling toward South Florida.
It's not a racial thing, of course, those folks will be quick to explain. The reason they need to get out of town is the traffic the yearly pilgrimage of hundreds of thousands of mostly African-American tourists always brings. It's a public safety issue, according to residents of the tony Venetian Islands, who a few years back convinced the City of Miami Beach to put up unenforceable and misleading signs saying the Venetian Causeway was only open to residents, in defiance of the county government that actually owns the road. But it's not at all about race, they'll insist, even though the abominable traffic that ties up the causeway for nearly a month every year during Art Basel draws nary a peep from the same people.
It also wasn't a racial thing, downtowners will tell you, when people got up in arms last month about the fact Bayfront Park had become the new home of an expansive hip-hop festival, Rolling Loud. That uproar included a passing threat to cancel the festival and the sudden resignation of the excellent park administrator who had overseen Miami's waterfront gem for more than a decade. But it was totally, totally, totally not about the race of the festival performers and many patrons. They would have had the same reaction if, say, an electronic music festival with mostly white patrons was about to take over the park for three days. Right?
Downtown Miami is about a great urban quality of life -- the mantra of live, work, play that by now seems the default pitch for those hawking luxury condos there. And that has nothing to do with race. Downtowners aren't interested in that, which might explain why the developer of what's likely to be some of the priciest high-rise pieds-à-terre downtown, the Aston Martin Residences, did not see an issue putting forward a plan to turn parts of Virginia Key Beach into a private club for condo owners. No irony in the plans to segregate for multi-millionaires a beach that's a symbol of black Miami's struggle as a "coloreds only" swimming spot under Jim Crow.
Not that it's a new idea to ship over to African-American communities parts of projects that downtown doesn't want. Have you heard all the recent hoopla about David Beckham's plan for a Major League Soccer stadium? All the teeth-gnashing about how building a major sports venue without parking in car-happy Miami would cause a traffic apocalypse? No? You haven't heard much?
Maybe that's because the plan that was once fairly sensibly projected for a place within the Port of Miami (and after opposition arose from port interests, not so sensibly proposed in a spot that would eat up a large chunk of Museum Park) is no longer downtown. What caused major political headaches and even a TV attack ad campaign when pitched downtown is being greenlighted without a hitch once moved to Overtown, sold to residents on the promise of several-dozen permanent living-wage jobs. That's right, a whole several dozen jobs.
Or maybe the reason you haven't heard much Beckham lately is because the papers instead are focused on the saga of what the decorative columns on the new I-395 bridge downtown will look like? Will it be a cluster of arches framing the downtown sky in postcards or will we instead go with a pair of iconic apexes? That's the $800 million question as the firms putting forward rival proposals engage in an escalating dispute over who gets the bid.
A tiff over aesthetics has been leveraged to garner public and political support. Yet even though one of the main ideas behind rebuilding the bridge is to open up the land underneath it and restore a connection between downtown and Overtown, that aspect seems to have taken a back seat in the discussion. Nothing racial about that, though. It's just that there are priorities. Choosing the plan that does a better job at helping turn back the monstrous destruction of the African-American community's fabric by the 1960s interstate is just not one of them. Clearly what's most important, as some of our civic leaders are showing right now, is to focus on what the tuxedo-and-gown set will be able to see as they park their cars before ballet at the Arsht Center.
One thing they for sure will not see is a giant wall dividing one side of the community from another. That's the kind of project that would basically whip up torch-bearing, pitchfork-armed mobs if it were ever proposed downtown.
Yet little is being heard in the way of protest as massive walls are going up that will likely permanently sever the street-level visual connection between downtown and Overtown along a large stretch of NW 1st Avenue. A component of the ramp that will take commuter trains from ground level to a elevated platform, the Spartan block walls certainly don't seem to be attracting the fuss over looks that the I-395 bridge project less than a mile away is causing.
Instead, Overtown leaders seem A-OK with the new visual block. Quoted by the Miami Times, the executive director of the community redevelopment agency in charge of prompting urban renewal in Overtown -- which it should be noted has taken over $17 million in poverty-fighting dollars and allocated them to helping make this project a reality -- is arguing you shouldn't believe your lying eyes.
"It's not a wall," Overtown CRA director Clarence Woods reportedly told the Miami Times. "It's a platform for the rail."
That statement elicited a response from longtime neighborhood activist Edduard Prince in Miami New Times. Prince mocked Woods by saying it would have been better for him to claim, "It's not a wall. It's a bunny rabbit."
Maybe someone else will want to claim that the wall has nothing to do with race either.

Wyong Shire has more than 300 kilometres of pedestrian and cycling paths, more than half of which are off-road footpaths, designed mainly for pedestrians.
However, there's also more than 105 kilometres of off-road shared pathways, which can be used by both pedestrians and cyclists; and more than 50 kilometres of on-road bicycle lanes on the side of the road and usually marked by painted white lines and bicycle symbols.
On-road bicycle lanes and shared pathways support Wyong Shire Council's goal of enhancing the quality of life of residents, both now and into the future. Bicycle lanes provide an efficient transport and training corridor for cyclists, whilst shared pathways can be utilised by the entire community for a range of social, transport and recreational reasons.
Bicycle lanes and shared pathways provide many benefits, including:
Increasing the visibility and safety of cycling and walking throughout the Shire will help to encourage the use of bicycles and shared pathways and improve the quality of life of the local community.
