Left wingnuts – children should not belong to their parents
Just when you think the left has gone about as far as they can go, an MSNBC host states that America needs to change its attitude towards their children, who really shouldn't belong to their parents alone, but to the "state, the collective."
MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry's quote, "We haven't had a very collective notion of these are our children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents or kids belong to their families, and recognize that kids belong to whole communities."
So many children in our society are being raised in non-nuclear, single-parent or no parent families that many need help raising their children through programs paid for by the rest of us. They do not wish to feel guilty about it, so the progressive's solution is to put us all in the same village.
Take a look at the video on the link. This Karl Marx view in a free society is frightening. One need look no farther than China dictating how many children parents may have under state control and the drastic measures that are taken against those who do not follow the state's mandate.
"The notion that children belong to a state government rather than their own flesh and blood is the most disturbing statement made in recent political times. Melissa Harris-Perry is dead wrong.
It's unfathomable that any true American could make such a pretentious and naively ill statement," media communications expert, and parent, Angie Olszewski told FOX411's Pop Tarts column. "The government can't properly run their own budgets schools and public systems. Why would anybody think they could rear children?"
Those on the left are on a mission, and that mission basically will result in the end of America as we know it. Anything…. and I do mean ANYTHING that people turn to for support, stability, tradition, comfort, and so on is under attack.
It doesn't matter if it's God or marriage or families with a mother and a father or raising children, the only thing far-left liberals want is for you to rely on government.
My children are mine, not the state's, not the community, not the schools. I am responsible and accountable for their actions, not the government.
My hope is that is that there are obviously wingnuts on both sides of the political spectrum and Melissa Harris-Perry is one of them.

Ted, I did watch the video and I think that you have misconstrued the point. Ms. Harris-Perry is making a case for investing in education, not taking your children away from you. Indeed, her very first line states that "we have never invested as much in public education as we should have". Her point is contained solely to public education and it's an incredible stretch to compare it to how many children parents can lawfully have.
You are correct that your children are yours and you are responsible for them, but businesses need a capable workforce. When companies cannot hire qualified employees, they will not knock on the doors of bad parents and yell at them for raising children incapable of using a tape measure or pushing a button; they will turn to the local school systems and ask them to perform better. As someone who has served on the Rockford school board and board of the local community college, I would have expected you to have a higher appreciation for the community's interest in educating younger generations.
Adam sez: "As someone who has served on the Rockford school board and board of the local community college, I would have expected you to have a higher appreciation for the community's interest in educating younger generations."
Do you mean teaching them things like this?
School: Americans Don't Have Right to Bear Arms
The father of a Connecticut child is furious after discovering that his son's school is teaching students that Americans don't have a Second Amendment right to bear arms.
"I am appalled," said Steven Boibeaux, of Bristol. "It sounds to me like they are trying to indoctrinate our kids."
Boibeaux's son is an eighth grader at Northeast Middle School. On Monday his social studies teacher gave students a worksheet titled, 'The Second Amendment Today.'
"The courts have consistently determined that the Second Amendment does not ensure each individual the right to bear arms," the worksheet states. "The courts have never found a law regulating the private ownership of weapons unconstitutional.
The worksheet, published by Instructional Fair, goes on to say that the Second Amendment is not incorporated against the states.
"This means that the rights of this amendment are not extended to the individual citizens of the states," the worksheet reads. "So a person has no right to complain about a Second Amendment violation by state laws."
According to the document, the Second Amendment "only provides the right of a state to keep an armed National Guard."
Boibeaux said he discovered the worksheet as he was going over his son's homework assignments.
"I'm more than a little upset about this," he told Fox News. "It's not up to the teacher to determine what the Constitution means."
Mat Staver, the founder and chairman of the Liberty Counsel, called the lesson propaganda – that is "absolutely false."
"In fact, the US Supreme Court has affirmed that the Second Amendment ensures the individual the right to bear arms," Staver told Fox News. "The progressive interpretation of the Second Amendment is that it doesn't give you the right to bear arms – that it's a corporate right of the government – but that has been rejected by the Courts."

Nice job, Snuss, at trying to change the subject. You did that after I pointed out that you were wrong about DOMA, too. Changing the subject is easier than admitting you're wrong or discussing the merits, huh? Not productive, just easier.
Mith Harrith is a college teeether? OMG.
People, where can we send our kids for an education these days. And if she is a teacher, what can your kids actually learn? everyone gets an A+ anyway….and a trophy
Ted's cherry-picking of comments is predictable and rather sad. In the real the world, it does indeed take a village to raise a child. We all have a responsibility to make sure that children, whether ours or those related to us or our friends', grow up with sound parenting, strong coaches, effective mentors and excellent teachers. My son plays a club sport and his coach is a fabulous role model. He plays a role in my son's life, as do I and his teachers, his pastor, etc. I keep hoping that Ted and his mind-numbing anger at anything and everything will eventually fade away but his column appears with annoying regularity. I often wonder how someone can be so angry, ALL THE TIME.
You might have something here Ted why just the other day I saw a bunch of children marching to school carrying their little red books and singing praises to their dear leader Kim Obama.
Gee, Adam, I just wanted to show more of the Left's propaganda, and how they are trying to indoctrinate children. Since the children "belong to the State", in the Liberal Left's opinion, isn't what they are being (mis-) taught by other Leftists relevant to the discussion?
@ Steverino: Do you mean like these kids?
Can you say Obama Youth?
Sorry snuss but our dear leader has forbidden us from looking at cut and paste inside the bubble.
"Gee, Adam, I just wanted to show more of the Left's propaganda, and how they are trying to indoctrinate children."
No Snuss, you are just trying to change the subject to deflect attention away from the fact that I pointed out that Ted and his partisan source completely misconstrued the point of this video to stir up controversy. Your M.O. is to say something ridiculous, e.g. that Obama is not enforcing DOMA, then, when called out on that falsehood, attempt to change the subject to something that is, at best, very loosely related. I bet soon you'll declare that I have some bowel ailment and misspell the Latin name for it. To those of us not stuck in your ideology, it's immature, silly and entirely unproductive.
Ted, of course she meant what she said. And what she said regarded investment in public education and the community's interest in educating children well. She said nothing about taking your children away from you, responsibility of your children or how many children you are allowed to have — that is all an invention on your part. She said nothing about that.
"I am the one who is responsible and have to deal with the problem not the government or any of its branches."
You could not be more wrong. Again, businesses need a capable workforce. When companies cannot hire qualified employees, they will not knock on the doors of bad parents and yell at them for raising children who are unqualified to work; they will turn to the local school systems and ask them to perform better or relocate to an area with better qualified workers. If your children are not educated and cannot work, they may turn to a life of crime which then involves law enforcement and the judiciary — that's two branches of government right there, Ted.
Ted, are you really suggesting that society has no interest in education and that we should abolish public schools?
Either you are choosing to purposedly miscontrue what was said or you are an idiot.
Which is it Ted?
It seems perfectly clear to all (except the kool-aid drinkers) that Ms. Harris-Perry said exactly what she meant: Children belong to the State, not their parents. Sort of like your earnings really aren't yours, but the State allows you to keep some of it.
On a related note, the USDA may have accidentally defined when life begins. Oops! See:
Except she never said any of that, Snuss. It's only "perfectly clear" to those of you with an agenda and a consistent disregard for factual accuracy. Your "on a related note" will not distract me from that fact.
Convenient that Ted fails to respond to my comments as well. He is consisent in cherry-picking his "facts" and his responses. Again, those of us out in the real world know that many people are responsible for the "raising" of children. Of course, parents bear the ultimately responsiblity for their development and we must make the final decisions. But, for good or bad, others influence the growth of our children.
To believe that's not the case is either ignorant, naive or blatantly stupid or, perhaps, all of the above. Ted and his boomer friends are stuck with 1950s viewpoints in a 2000s world.
Of course, Snuss. You cannot refute my assertion that you and Ted are attempting to completely misconstrue the point of this so you just keep trying to distract people with more "on a related note" nonsense. It is hard to make an argument when the facts don't support your preferred position, I know. That's why I don't do that.
I'm not even clicking on your link.
Ahh. . . link bombing. Convenient tactic when you don't have an original thought. Just use someone else's. Typical strategy from Snuss.
My, the kool-aid is flowing freely.
From the Left-Wingnuts' favorite reading material, The Communist Manifesto, by Karl Marx:
10."Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc." This sounds pretty good, and indeed, all civilized nations have instituted public schools and made child labour illegal. But if you read his full text, you will see that he is not merely advocating the creation of public schools. He wants children to be taken away from their parents and educated in state boarding schools! And he is not trying to abolish child labour entirely, he just wants to abolish child labour in its present form. In its place, he suggests that schools and industrial factories be merged into one, so that children work and go to school at the same time. How charming.

Irrelevant. Ted cited a partisan outlet and embellished with his own ideas about one-child legislation. Neither of you are even attempting to defend your position about this video because you cannot. Ted only insisted that he was right — even though he wasn't — and you, Snuss, have just tried every which way to change the subject. None of that alters the fact that Ted and gopusa.com dishonestly misconstrued the point of this video.
What one "believes" does not mean it's fact. Do you care to explain how I have misconstrued the point of the video? It was clearly advocating for public education and yet you, somehow, think it's advocating to take your children away from you or limit how many children people can have. That is dishonest on its face, but your defense of "let's see in twenty years" does not in any way support your position. Just because you read propaganda on some partisan website does not mean it's accurate; you keep showing that you only employ unthinking knee-jerk emotion and apply no thought of your own.
Change the subject? Leftist control of our children IS the subject, whether it is by physically taking them from their parents, or force-feeding them Leftist propaganda that contradicts normal family values.
Here is another example: http://collegeinsurrection.com/2013/04/wisconsin-school-uses-crossword-puzzles-to-indoctrinate-students-against-conservatives/
Ted, I don't think your attempt to twist what was said makes you an idiot, just to be clear.
I think you know very well what the intent was.
As far as snuss, why do you constantly try to change the subject? Posting a link to an article about conception and the beginning of life? Also, your admission that you post things purposely to annoy lefties makes you an internet troll. Since you link links, here is one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)
"Leftist control of our children IS the subject, whether it is by physically taking them from their parents, or force-feeding them Leftist propaganda that contradicts normal family values."
OK, Snuss, then cite where in this video the speaker said that. You cannot, because she did not say anything about that, did she? And that is my point. You and Ted are so desperate to be angry that you believe this vitriol you find online or make stuff up on your own. It's silly and immature.
You should know Adam that their next response is that she didn't have to say it. We all know that these people have socialist plans no matter what they say. Therefore it is fair game to put any woreds in their mouth that they want to. It happens in almost every post on this site.
Yet if you call attention to it or continually raise the issue, the charter members of the "Looking at the World from the Inside of a Toilet Bowl" crew starts calling you nasty names and just repeat what they said as proof that they are correct. I guess that is their version of the liberal leftist Kool-aid they like to rant about and/or the liberal leftist reading comprehension problem that they like to rant about.
And on a related note, they do it all the time!
Yes, you're right JRM. Anything they say must be true and anything they don't like must be unconstitutional. Epistemic closure instead of reason and logic.
Investing in education? Just how much money needs to be invested?
Is there a better high school in Rockford than Boylan?
If parents of public high school children in Rockford were given $10K to spend on their tuition, how many would keep their kids in Rockford public schools?
How many non-public high schools are their in Rockford now? Think about it, how many parents are turning down a free product and shelling out nearly $10K so their children receive a decent high school education.
All the PMSNBC talking head wants to do is grow gov't so her teacher union buddies get rich.
I am all for the socialists investing more on our\their children's education. I mean look at the return of investment.
"New York spent more on its public school students than any other state — an average of $18,126 — during 2009, according to new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau."
Of the 50 largest school systems, New York City School District spent the most per student in 2010 at $19,597.
According to the New York Post, which reported the same story earlier on Thursday, "79.3 percent of city public-school grads who went to CUNY's six two-year colleges arrived without having mastered the basics" of reading, writing, and math,
Grooming future progressive voters!
Look up your local Illinois school district and see what each teacher gets paid. I'll mention that these numbers include about 10% for pension benefits.
More Leftist propaganda in the schools:
Florida fourth graders allegedly told to write down desire to give up constitutional rights
A father in Duval County, Florida has alleged that his son's fourth-grade teacher instructed students to express — in crayon — their desire to trade rights guaranteed in the Constitution for a feeling of added security.
The concerned father, Aaron Harvey, says his son and other kids in his son's class had to scribble: "I am willing to give up some of my constitution rights in order to be safer or more secure."
The incident happened at some point during a civics lesson at Cedar Hills Elementary School in Jacksonville, Florida, reports First Coast News.
A local attorney had spoken to the class prior to the assignment, explains local radio station WOKV. The purported goal of the overall lesson was to "create an awareness" of constitutional rights and help the fourth graders "determine their opinions on which rights they value most and least."
"I don't believe that any American or American child should be asked to write this," Harvey told First Coast News.
Amy Harvey, the boy's mother, concurs. She was the one who found the tri-color treatise languishing in her son's backpack (where it had apparently been sitting for several weeks).
"If I don't check his backpack, I won't find things like this," she told First Coast.
The fuming father noted that his 10-year-old son can't possibly want to give up the rights he enjoys under the Constitution because he doesn't fully understand the rights he enjoys in the first place.
"I served in the military. I served to protect my family, my country, and that Constitution and everyone's freedom," Harvey added, according to WOKV.

A few quotes on the subject:
"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
— Benjamin Franklin
"Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted."
— Vladimir Lenin
"When an opponent declares, 'I will not come over to your side,' I calmly say, 'Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.'"
— Adolf Hitler
While those may be valid points, Snuss, none of that excuses Ted from posting a piece that was misleading and factually inaccurate.
Ted, since you assert that "[I] couldn't punch [my] way out of a paper bag let alone holes in [your] arguments", this piece serves as an excellent example of how you completely misconstrue the words of others to try to make a point. You got caught and never took responsibility for your underhanded actions. As an adult, this is not behavior to be proud of.

text: DigitalSarah Palin Rolls Out Her Own Internet TV NetworkBacked by Tapp, modeled on TheBlazeBy Erik Oster|July 28, 2014ShareBy Erik Oster|July 28, 2014Share Sarah Palin has announced the launch of The Sarah Palin Channel, a subscription-based Internet TV network that offers "unfiltered," direct access to the former vice presidential candidate, Alaska governor and reality TV star for her followers. Palin made the announcement yesterday via a two-minute promotional video. In the video, Palin invited viewers to her "new project," claiming the news channel "really is a lot more than news, it's a community." "I want to talk directly to you on our channel, on my terms — and no need to please the powers that be," said Palin, adding, "More importantly, I want you to talk directly to me." On the channel, Palin said, viewers can expect to "discuss issues of the day and … find solutions." She also trotted out such Tea Party buzzwords as "politically correct filter," "crony capitalism," and "mainstream media," positioning her channel as a way to circumvent all that. Subscribers to the site will have the opportunity to post their own videos, submit questions to Palin, and participate directly in online video chats with Palin and other subscribers. Just in case Palin's political agenda is unclear, the site also includes a "national debt ticker" and a countdown to the end of President Obama's term. Palin's new channel is backed by "Tapp, the online-video venture formed by Jeff Gaspin, former chairman of NBCUniversal Television, and Jon Klein, former president of CNN U.S.," according to Variety. The Sarah Palin Channel, Variety pointed out, is modeled on Glenn Beck's TheBlaze, which the former Fox News host launched back in 2011 and is now carried on Dish Network and regional cable. In addition to the political content and discussions, Palin also promised to "share some of the fun that goes on in the Palin household," so subscribers can expect a healthy dose of Sarah Palin's Alaska-style reality TV thrown in for good measure. Subscriptions to The Sarah Palin Channel cost $9.95 per month, or $99.95 for one year, although the site is currently offering a free trial. According to Tapp, active military members can also subscribe free of charge. The Sarah Palin Channel seeks to capitalize on the new Internet subscription model, which seems to be enticing more and more television personalities. It was a success for Glenn Beck and Tapp's first channel, Steve Arterburn's New Life TV, which Tapp claims was profitable afterjust four months. Former CNN host Larry King also recently launched an online talk show and Food Network's Paula Deen will be making the leap online this fall, following the loss of her show in the wake of racist comments.

As you may have guessed, Foolanthropy is The Motley Fool's take on philanthropy. In fact, it's one of the Internet's longest-running charity drives. In the past 11 years, Foolanthropy has raised more than $3 million in support of a wide range of reader-nominated charities.
Over the years, we've narrowed our focus to financial literacy and youth. We're now working toward the goal of helping to make sure every young person on the globe has access to a financial education. In coordination with our newsletters, which bring stock analysis and personal finance information to subscribers, and our free content, which provides financial news and advice to anyone with Internet access, we're working to ensure that the trove of financial knowledge we've accumulated over the years gets distributed to those who need it most -- youth.
The majority of students in America and around the world enter adulthood without a basic financial education, setting them up for a host of troubles ranging from credit card debt to not saving for retirement. Poor decisions made as a teenager or young adult can lead to a lifetime of debt and financial burden.
We've made it the goal of our Foolanthropy program to help remedy this situation by working with partners to help spread financial lessons to schools and communities where they're not currently being taught. We want to empower people to make wise financial decisions when they're young. This is especially important in our current economic climate.
We believe we can make a real different working together with organizations like these, our 2007 Foolanthropy recipients:
- Corporation for Enterprise Development (CFED)
- JA Worldwide
- Mercy Corps' Silent Disasters Program
- Operation HOPE's Banking on Our Future Program
- Share Our Strength's Operation Frontline Program
If you'd like to help us brainstorm about how we can spread the knowledge, we'd love to hear from you. Please make a post to our free Foolanthropy discussion board. We also ask that you consider donating to these charities, or offering them your support as a volunteer.

Clearing mines is no an insufficient solution because it is pretty much all you can do. You have pretty much have two choices, you can either clear them OR leave them. If you leave them, that is a much more insufficient solution than clearing them. They need to be cleared, so this is the best solution available.
Removing mines may not usher in a world of total peace, but it is a worthwhile goal and a necessary step to disarmament and a less militarized world. Mines by their very nature are durable, and there are even active minefields left over from World War One. Some nations, like Laos, have so many landmines, it may take centuries for them to be totally removed. So it is a sufficient part of an overall solution.

Thomas Edward "Tom" Fletcher[1] is a fictional character from the Australian soap opera Home and Away, played by actor Roger Oakley. He made his first screen appearance in the pilot episode broadcast on 17 January 1988. The character departed on 30 April 1990, but reappeared briefly in 2008 as a ghost in Sally Fletcher's near-death experience following her second stabbing.
Tom originally lived in the city with his wife, Pippa (Vanessa Downing; Debra Lawrence). As Pippa had rheumatic fever as a child her heart had been weakened, and had been warned that if she fell pregnant there was a good chance the strain would kill her. Tom had a vasectomy to stop her from falling pregnant, but the two were desperate to become parents and decided to start fostering. They receive their first charge in 1978 in the form of an eight-year-old tearaway named Frank Morgan (Alex Papps), whose parents Les (Mario Kery) and Helena (Lee Sanderson) are a criminal and an alcoholic, respectively. Mr. Jarvis (John Stone) of the Department of Child Services warns Frank is difficult but the Fletchers are able to provide a stable home for him. Ten years later, Frank is still living with the Fletchers and they have since taken on four more children; Carly Morris (Sharyn Hodgson); Steven Matheson (Adam Willits); Lynn Davenport (Helena Bozich); and Sally Keating (Kate Ritchie). Following Tom's 40th birthday, his boss informs him he has been retrenched. Jarvis worries about the children's welfare but the Fletchers are determined not to lose them so they sell the house, pack up and move to the coastal town of Summer Bay.
Shortly after the Fletchers arrive, Tom and Pippa purchase Summer Bay House and the Caravan Park from Alf Stewart (Ray Meagher), who had lived there with his late wife, Martha (Alison Mulvaney), and their daughter, Roo (Justine Clarke). They quickly make friends in the community including park tenants Floss (Sheila Kennelly) and Neville McPhee (Frank Lloyd) and local shopkeeper Ailsa Hogan (Judy Nunn). Tom makes an enemy of neighbour Donald Fisher (Norman Coburn) after he and Pippa foster local tearaway Bobby Simpson (Nicolle Dickson). Fisher sets about making life difficult for Tom, who struggles find to work. Tom has a small stroke of luck when Mervin Baldivis (Peter Boswell) is able to put a good work in for him working on the road gang for Sam Barlow (Jeff Truman). Tom and Barlow butt heads when Barlow makes an off-hand remark about Carly's recent rape trauma leading to a fight at work and Tom quits after. However, Tom is promoted to foreman and Barlow is demoted to waste detail.
After Carly's embarrassment over Tom's job, he feels hurt. However the Macklin family open the Sands Resort and Tom takes a job there. Further good news arrives when Pippa learns she is pregnant despite Tom's vasectomy. The couple worry Pippa may die during childbirth but decide to take risk. Pippa is healthy and they celebrate the birth of their newborn son, Christopher (Ashleigh Bell-Weir). Work soon begins to take its toll on Tom and he collapses following a stroke and is hospitalised for a number of weeks. Following his recovery, Tom and Pippa's marriage faces a testing time in the next year when Zac Burgess (Mark Conroy) a shark hunter makes a play for Pippa and rumours of an affair are spread around. However, Zac is driven out of town after his behaviour is exposed and Tom and Pippa reconcile. While driving back from a football game with Bobby, Steven and Sophie Simpson (Rebekah Elmaloglou), Tom suffers a second stroke and crashes the car. Paramedics try to revive him but Tom dies, leaving the family devastated.
18 years later, Tom reappears as a vision to Sally when she suffers a near-death experience after a second stabbing at the hands of Johnny Cooper (Callan Mulvey). He shows Sally a vision of the Bay if she dies and an alternate reality where her long-lost twin brother Miles Copeland (Josh Quong Tart) is murdered by Johnny instead. Tom also shows Sally a glimpse into future which reveals Cassie Turner (Sharni Vinson) has contracted HIV and tells if she does return someone else will die. This is prophetic as Sally's friend Dan Baker (Tim Campbell) dies shortly after. When Sally recovers, she tells Pippa about the vision and she is sceptical, but she still somewhat believes her. Alf also believes her, as he had been through a similar experience when he saw visions of Ailsa after her death during a brain tumour he was suffering from.
Of the character of Tom, Ruth Deller of television website Lowculture said "One of the nicest dad characters in soap, ever, has to be Tom Fletcher from Home and Away".[2] The Soap Show called Tom the "first patriarch of Home and Away."[3]

I do not believe Pope Benedict XVI should have canonized more saints. Sainthood takes time, of which, I think most people should understand. These cases are often handled one on one where they gather information and then come to a conclusion. I don't think Pope's should be required to meet a quota, because if it's overdone, it's not as special.
I think the decision to canonized saints should be a serious decision and not one that is done to everyone. I don't think it is right to criticize a pope for not canonizing enough. Canonizing is only meant for the truly deserving and should be kept in a high position.
No, Pope Benedict XVI should not have canonized more saints. When you talk to the Catholic Church officials these days, even some of them are privately saying the whole "saints" deal is a relic of a simpler time before science was a legitimate field of study. So the Church and the Pope were right to be more skeptical.
Pope Benedict XVI should not have canonized more saints. We do not want more saints in the church at this time because it devalues the meaning of being a saint. The church will be there for many many more years to come and we should not have to rush the process.
Pope Benedict XVI should not have canonized more saints. It will make the canonization of saints less important if it becomes more common. Popes should wait a longer time before canonizing candidates to be canonized. The church will last forever. There should be no rush for the canonization of genuine saints.

(Herbert and Mildred Lee Gallery)
WALTHAM, Mass. – The Rose Art Museum is proud to announce its most ambitious exhibition schedule in years. Between Sept. 2007 and July 2008, the museum will host nine new exhibitions, including the first major U.S. museum solo exhibitions for Tom Sachs, Steve Miller and Alexis Rockman. Also included are video art from India; new painting, sculpture, photography and video from Israel; a fully re-mounted New York gallery exhibition from 1997; and collection-based exhibitions by a nationally recognized roster of visiting curators and artists including Dominique Nahas, Margaret Evangeline and Odili Donald Odita.
The fall season will feature one-person exhibitions of two American-born artists, along with an exhibit of videos created by women Indian artists. "Tom Sachs: Logjam;" "Steve Miller: Spiraling Inward;" and the video portion of "Tiger by the Tail! Women Artists of India Transforming Culture" will open on Sept. 25 and continue through Dec. 16, 2007.
Tom Sachs is known for his effusive installations and constructions of a variety of objects more commonly found within the public or commercial domain. "Logjam" augments the prevailing discussion of Sachs' critique of consumer culture by highlighting two bodies of work that focus on the actual making of art objects. Twelve installations consisting of Sachs' highly significant "work" and "living" stations, along with a video showing a day's activities in the artist's studio, clearly exemplify the artist's sense of play. His "living" stations function to support day-to-day activities, while his fascinating and often obsessive "work" stations allow the viewer to peer into the rarely seen spaces in which he works. Arguably Sachs' most personal exhibition to date, "Logjam" explores why he is driven to fabricate objects and how he chooses to make what he does. Jeff Fleming, director of The Des Moines Art Center, curates the exhibition, which will be Sachs' first solo museum show in the U.S.
Steve Miller has been exploring the boundaries between art and science for more than 20 years. Featuring more than three-dozen paintings and drawings, "Spiraling Inward" will offer a comprehensive view of the artist's attempt to capture visually the most basic functions of living organisms. For the past five years, Miller has been working with Nobel Laureate and Brandeis alumnus Rod MacKinnon to translate MacKinnon's research in biochemistry into a visual form. Miller's paintings and drawings are first and foremost works of art, not strict visualizations of scientific experiments. They are unique and personal. With references stretching from Picasso and Warhol to Rauschenberg and contemporary laboratory imaging techniques, Miller's work transforms the canvas into a locus of beauty and inquiry.
Miller is known to have said that everything he does "looks at the world through the lens of technology." Like the painter Vija Celmins who miraculously manages to translate the universes glimpsed in a night sky to the small frame of a canvas, Miller takes the invisible worlds of proteins and molecules and renders them palpable within the confines of a canvas - a canvas that has been prepped not only with paint, but in any given work, with a digital photograph, a sonogram, an MRI or a DNA code. Curated by Michael Rush, the Henry and Lois Foster Director of The Rose, this is the artist's first solo museum exhibition in the United States.
The Rose will showcase videos created by three female Indian artists – Shilpa Gupta, Sonia Khurana, and Navjot Altaf – as part of "Tiger by the Tail! Women Artists of India Transforming Culture," in collaboration with the Women's Studies Research Center (WSRC) at Brandeis. As Indian art breaks forth on the global scene, women are leading the way. Socially engaged and politically active, these artists examine the dramatically changing role of women in Indian society. They critique oppressive and restrictive social norms and confront stereotypical representations of the female. The exhibition as a whole will bring together the work of 17 Indian women artists, working in sculpture, painting, photography, and video, whose strong, feminist voices provide new models for the empowerment of women. The exhibition is curated by Wendy Tarlow Kaplan, curator of the WSRC; Elinor Gadon, a scholar at the WSRC; and Indian curator Roobina Karode.
The winter season will feature two collection-based exhibitions and a historical recreation of a 1997 New York gallery exhibition, one of the first "guest curated" shows in a commercial gallery, a practice now ubiquitous in the art world.
In the Lois Foster Wing, critic/curator Dominique Nahas and artist Margaret Evangeline will curate "Empires and Environments," an exhibition featuring several works from the Rose collection exhibited with new work from emerging artists. This exhibition continues the Rose's recent emphasis on exploring its extraordinary collection.
Dominique Nahas is an independent curator and critic based in Manhattan. He's a board member of Art-Omi having served as Art-Omi's International Artists Residency Program's Critic-in-Residence in 1999. A regular contributor to Art in America, Nahas has written articles and reviews for a wide variety of art publications such as REVIEW, ARTNews, Flash Art, Art On Paper, Paris Photo, New Art Examiner, ArtNet Worldwide, Art Asia Pacific, New Observations, C, Smock, Sculpture, Chelsea NY Arts and TRANS among many other periodicals. He is a former board member and current member of the International Art Critics Association (AICA-USA). His many curatorial projects have included BROOKLYN!, 2001, and JAPAN:RISING, 2003, both co-curated with Michael Rush for the Palm Beach ICA. He is former curator of the Everson Museum in Syracuse and former director of the Neuberger Museum in Purchase, NY.
New York-based, Louisiana-born painter Margaret Evangeline has long experimented with aesthetically resistant material, making work that deepens the immediacy of a moment. Evangeline uses gunshot and mirror polished stainless steel to open up the all-over 2D picture plane with its taproot in New American-Type Painting. Solo exhibitions of the artist's work have been held at venues as various as The Palm Beach ICA, The Delaware Center for the Arts, The Hafnarborg Art Museum outside Reykjavik, Iceland and the Taipei Museum in Taiwan. In 2008 Evangeline will create a site-specific installation for the River Thames in London on a barge across from the Tate Modern, commissioned by Illuminate Productions.
In recent videos, she experiments with sound and actions collected while shooting the steel panels of a commissioned sculpture. "Once Upon a Time, America," a three-minute video, was produced in conjunction with the site-specific installation now in the permanent collection of The Fields at ArtOmi, near Ghent, New York. She is currently at work on a midcareer monograph with the working title, "The Big Uneasy In Genius Loci."
"Broken Home, 1997/2007" is a recreation of the influential exhibition of the same name at Greene Naftali Gallery, New York, in 1997, curated by Meg O'Rourke and Caroline Schneider. Artists in the exhibition included Robert Gober, Vito Acconci, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Dan Graham, Franz West, Thomas Demand, among several others. Only a few of the works sold. Today, these works are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. For more than a decade, commercial galleries have created what have been called "museum quality" shows in their spaces, with some work for sale and some not. While all professionals in the art world recognize this phenomenon, no museum has yet historicized this practice by presenting what a commercial gallery has curated. To do so might be considered "crass," or "crossing the line" between what have been traditionally separate domains: the gallery and the museum. This year alone several noted exhibitions have been curated in commercial galleries, including "Picasso, Braque and Early Film in Cubism," curated by Bernice Rose at Pace Wildenstein; "Project for a Revolution in New York" curated by Mitchell Algus at Matthew Marks Gallery; and "Equal, That Is, to the Real Itself," curated by Linda Norden for Marian Goodman Gallery. Numerous controversial issues are inherent in presenting this gallery exhibition within the museum context. The recreation of "Broken Home" seeks to recognize a very important part of contemporary curatorial practice as well as prompt discussion about the ever-decreasing separations between galleries, auction houses, artists, collectors and museums.
The spring/summer season will feature "Alexis Rockman: The Weight of Air," "Paper Trail II," curated by Odili Donald Odita, and "The New Authentics: Artists of the Post-Jewish Generation," opening on May 8 and continuing through July 27, 2008.
Alexis Rockman is well known for his intricately crafted and often surreal depictions of the relationship between nature and human culture. In the past two years, he has been creating an extraordinary new body of works on paper that reveals a depth of experimental process resulting in a unique mix of beauty, feelings of wonder and encroaching catastrophe. "Alexis Rockman: The Weight of Air" represents Rockman's debut of a looser, flowing style, more concentrated on artfulness than representational prowess. This will be Rockman's first solo museum show of works on paper and the first museum display of the artist's latest works. It will present approximately 50 new pieces, each of which addresses dramatic changes in the worldwide climate, as well as representative pieces from his early career that will contextualize his current paintings. A full color catalogue will complement the show with essays by Rush, curator of the exhibition, as well as Helen Molesworth, curator of contemporary art at the Harvard University Art Museums.
"The New Authentics: Artists of the Post-Jewish Generation" will feature works by 16 American artists who are prominent in the global contemporary art world, and will serve as a platform for raising important questions about cultural, ethnic and religious identity in the United States today. The exhibition will examine how these artists are informed by their particular experiences as Jews and will address complex notions of Jewishness in American culture. Artists include: David Altmejd, Cheselyn Amato, Johanna Bresnick, Shoshana Dentz, Lilah Freedland, Matthew Girson, Karl Haendel, Laura Kina, Fawn Krieger, Jin Meyerson, Mindy Rose Schwartz, Collier Schorr, Ludwig Schwarz, Joel Tauber, Shoshanna Weinberger and Jennifer Zackin. The exhibition is curated by Staci Boris and organized by the Spertus Museum at the Spertus Institute of Jewish Studies in Chicago.
"Paper Trail II" is the second in a series of three exhibitions in which artists integrate their own work with pieces they select from the museum's works on paper collection. The project offers the rare opportunity to showcase samples from more than 2,000 works on paper owned by The Rose Art Museum. For this, the second installment in the series, Odili Donald Odita will be the featured artist. Odita is a Nigerian-born artist best known for his abstract paintings. Critic Gregory Volk has written that "Odita has earned a reputation for his colorful acrylic abstract paintings, in which slightly irregular bands, elongated triangles, stretched-out trapezoids and other off-kilter geometric forms extend horizontally across the support. While Odita's works have roots in patterned geometric abstraction, their choppy contours suggest both turbulence and organic growth. They also pull in hints of big landscapes, big skies, textile decorations and 'traditional' clothing from Odita's native Nigeria." Odita has exhibited widely, including at this year's Venice Biennale. He is a professor at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia and a critic who has written for such publications as Flash Art and Nka.

The FIFA hammer came down hard on Luis Suárez just days after he chomped down on the shoulder of Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini in a World Cup match. Initially, the suspension was 9 international matches (including the remainder of the World Cup) and 9 Premier League matches, a suspension that gnawed at the patience of Italian supporters, as many thought it too lenient for a third time biter. However, Suárez revealed in a press conference earlier this morning that FIFA also had all of Suárez's front teeth removed as a means of preventing further injuries.
FIFA vice-president Jim Boyce had this to say: "I think the punishment handed out to Luis Suarez is fully justified. He was told not to bite, he bit, we bit back."
While the press conference with Suárez was brief, as it was difficult to make out what the toothless striker was saying, Suárez vowed to use his time away from football to reflect on his actions and also joked he would taste each and every one of Ben and Jerry's delicious flavors of ice cream. Suárez was also adamant that the removal of his teeth was a violation of human rights and he would fight (or bite, it was difficult to discern his exact words) FIFA every step of the way.
Minutes after the news conference, Colgate stated they would no longer sponsor Suárez.

Many of you may not know much about a table. In such a case, it is better we start off by gaining some knowledge about it. A HTML table is basically used to put forward data in a grid format, such as in the form of columns and rows. These tables may not look much attractive but with the help of bootstrap we can add design and style to it. Bootstrap easily enhances the overall appearance of tables. For those who are not aware about Bootstrap, it is basically a computing technique which is used to load any program into the computer with assistance of some initial instructions.
You can start off by creating tables with the help of basic styling which comprises of small cell padding and horizontal dividers. Add the Bootstrap class table to the
 element. This will give you a simple table with separate row titles and materials to fill the rows. For example, if you wish to make a simple table comprising of names of people and their emails ids, you can easily make such a table with the help of Bootstrap.

  Row	  First Name	  Last Name	  Email

  1	  John	  Carter	  email@example.com

  2	  Peter	  Parker	  firstname.lastname@example.com

  3	  John	  Rambo	  email@example.com

Many a times, you may feel that alternate backgrounds may help your table look better. In such cases, you can achieve styling with the help of Bootstrap. You can easily create a table of your choice with alternate zebra stripes in the background. All you need to do is add Bootstrap's class table-striped to the table base class. The result will be a table with black and white backgrounds will appear in your document, thus giving you a table of your desired look. Going by with the previous example, user will now have different names of people in either black or white background.
Sometimes, if you look at a table with different cell borders, you will find it more attractive than a borderless table. Bootstrap can also assist you in achieving this for your table. Simply add an additional Bootstrap class table bordered to the table base class. The end results here would be separate borders will be placed for different cells. Now, names and their email ids will appear in separate bordered cells thus giving the table more crisp and precise look.

  Row	  First Name	  Last Name	  Email

  1	  John	  Carter	  email@example.com

  2	  Peter	  Parker	  email@example.com

  3	  John	  Rambo	  email@example.com

On various tables you may notice that different columns change their backgrounds as you hover with your mouse on these columns or cells. In a way this highlights the exact location of your mouse pointer on the table. If you also wish to initiate the same hover state on your table, you can start off by adding table-hover to the table base class. The result will enable hover state on your table and give the same result where the background gets highlighted according to the placement of mouse pointer. It is one of the most amazing features of bootstraps which is most often used by the users.
Often the content on your table has loads of data consuming lots of space in your document or disk. In such cases, you can easily make your table compact to save space. Simple add an extra class table-condensed to the table base class. This makes any table condensed and helps in saving lots of space.
There are many other formats you can achieve for your table to make it look more attractive and presentable. All you need to do is, follow the instructions on Bootstrap and ensure that right steps are followed to implement design and styling in the template.

Heroin dealer busted with product he named after LeBron James (Picture)
Marketing experts would tell you that LeBron James is a pretty strong endorser. If you put LeBron's name on something, people are going to buy it. The problem is you have to be willing to spend millions of dollars for the rights to attach King James to your product. Unless your product is illegal to begin with, in which case it really doesn't matter.
According to the Philadelphia Daily News, Upper Darby police arrested a heroin dealer on Thursday who was found to be in possession of 140 packets of heroin. The packets were all labeled "LeBron James" and had an image of a basketball player dunking a ball on them.
"I don't think LeBron James would be too happy with this drug-dealer dude using his name on these street bags," Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said.
Believe it or not, this is not the first time someone has named their heroin after King James. Chitwood pointed out that stamping bags with some sort of name is common for drug dealers, but it's usually a more generic name or word. An undercover police officer made the arrest from 19-year-old Marlon Guess, who unsuccessfully tried to outrun police after they bought 140 bags of the LeBron off of him for $750.
We have heard of strands of marijuana being named after athletes like this one and this one, and those tend to create legal issues regarding branding. In the case of the 140 bags of heroin, my guess is the fact that the dealer used LeBron's name without permission will be the least of his problems.

Two million pilgrims converge on Mecca for the hajj
Two million Muslims from across the globe are converging on Mecca in Saudi Arabia for the hajj pilgrimage, a religious duty and for some pilgrims the journey of a lifetime.
This year sees the return of pilgrims from Shia Iran, regional rival to Sunni powerhouse Saudi Arabia and comes with the Gulf mired in political crisis and Islamic State group jihadists squeezed in Iraq and Syria.
"I'm so excited because many people dream of coming to this place," said 47-year-old Eni from Indonesia, her face framed in a sand-coloured veil trimmed with lace. "We feel more religious when we leave this place," she said.
Indonesia is the world's most populous Muslim nation and it also provides the largest number of pilgrims for the hajj.
Eni's compatriots throng Jeddah airport 80 kilometres west of Mecca, as tens of thousands of pilgrims pass through the gateway to the hajj every day.
But Eni is almost oblivious to the hubbub that surrounds her as she studies her Koran in the oppressive heat, pearls of sweat beading her face.
"After my first pilgrimage I felt I wanted to come back to feel myself close to him," she said of the Prophet Muhammad before returning her attention to Islam's holy book.
The hajj is one of the five pillars of the Islamic faith, which every Muslim is required to complete at least once in a lifetime if he or she has the means to do so.
"This year we expect around two million pilgrims," Abdelmajeed Mohammad Al-Afghani, director of hajj and umra (lesser pilgrimage) affairs, told journalists.
Iranians are back after not attending in 2016 following a deadly Mecca stampede the previous year that killed nearly 2,300 pilgrims. It was the worst catastrophe in the history of the hajj, with 464 people from the Islamic republic among the dead. Following the disaster, Tehran railed against Saudi Arabia's organisation of the pilgrimage.
The two countries then severed diplomatic relations in January 2016 after the Saudi embassy in Tehran was ransacked by a crowd protesting against the execution in the kingdom of a Shia religious dignitary. Analysts say that neither Riyadh nor Tehran has any wish to prolong the dispute.
"To politicise an event like this does no good," according to Slimane Zeghidour, author of "La vie quotidienne a La Mecque: De Mahomet a nos jours" (Daily Life in Mecca from Mohammed to Today).
Accusations of the hajj being politicised have marred the region for some time.
The Hajj: pilgrims in their millions
Millions of devout Muslims are again conducting the pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia. This year, the biggest pilgrimage in the world is being overshadowed by political tensions and safety concerns. By Janina Semenova
Religious joy: an experience that must be captured and recorded. For many Muslims the pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia is the crowning moment of their faith. It is the religious duty of every Muslim to carry out the hajj – a journey that lasts several days – at least once in their lives, providing the individual is in good health and can afford to do it. Saudi Arabia is responsible for organising the pilgrimage
Anti-clockwise: the final destination on the pilgrimage is the holy city of Mecca. All worshippers visit the Grand Mosque in the Saudi Arabian city. In the inner courtyard of the mosque is the Kaaba, the "House of God", in the form of a black cube. The pilgrims circle the Kaaba seven times, always in an anti-clockwise direction
Buried under rubble: around two million people travel to Mecca every year. The pilgrimage has been frequently overshadowed by misfortune – for example, on 15 September 2015. Just as the hajj was about to begin, a storm caused a crane to collapse onto the Grand Mosque in Mecca, killing more than 100 people
Trampled to death: the next tragedy occurred nearly two weeks later, on 24 September 2015. Thousands of pilgrims were trampled to death in a mass panic in the town of Mina near Mecca. This is where pilgrims are supposed to conduct the ritual stoning of the devil
Travel ban for Muslims from Iran: it is thought that some 469 Iranians were among the dead. Following the incident, Iranians demonstrated outside the Saudi Arabian embassy in Tehran. The Iranian government accused Saudi Arabia of negligence. This further exacerbated the already tense relationship between the two nations. Iran has banned its citizens from making the hajj this year
High-tech support: in response to the fatal accidents, Saudi Arabia has tightened security procedures. These include the introduction of electronic wristbands to identify each individual worshipper in the crowd. The wristbands will store personal data including health details and location, as well as inform pilgrims about prayer times
Praying on the mountain: one of the most important stations on the pilgrimage is the walk on Mount Arafat. It is here that the faithful supplicate to Allah to forgive their sins. According to Islamic tradition, this is where the Prophet Muhammad delivered his final sermon. Another high point of the hajj is the Feast of the Sacrifice or Eid, celebrated by Muslims all over the world, regardless of whether they are taking part in the pilgrimage
For nearly three months, the Gulf has been embroiled in its worst ever political crisis, with Saudi Arabia and its allies facing off against Qatar, which they accuse of being too close to Iran and backing extremism.
A boycott imposed on the small but gas-rich emirate since 5 June has resulted in Qatar's land, sea and air links being badly affected. This has also had a knock-on effect on hajj-related travel, although Riyadh announced it was relaxing certain restrictions for pilgrims.
In the arrivals hall at Jeddah airport, determined pilgrims walk hastily to avoid losing contact with other members of their group.
"I'm so happy to be a part of it this year," said 43-year-old Nigerian Mohammed Said, in the seamless two-piece white garment or "ihram" worn by male pilgrims.
"I want to do it every year if I can afford it," added Said who is in Saudi Arabia for his third hajj. "Every time it's different – it's like I'm doing it for the first time."
For author Zeghidour, going on the hajj takes pilgrims to another level altogether.
"The pilgrim has to run, move and perform several stages" of the ritual. "It is so physically and mentally demanding that he doesn't have time to think about the crisis in the Gulf. For him this is literature. Many pilgrims come from Asia or Africa, far from the Middle East and they come to a place where they can try to forget their lives back home."
Murderous jihadist attacks across the world in recent years will be on the minds of many pilgrims, especially those from Iraq and Syria where the IS has suffered a series of setbacks.
But the threat from extremists has not put off pilgrims such as Fatima, from Perpignan in southern France.
"I've been waiting to go on this journey for a long time," she said, wearing a red veil like the other people in her group. (AFP)

What is HPV?
About 20 million people in the world have been infected with the HPV virus at some time in their life and 3 out of every 4 Americans have been infected with the genital HPV type in their lifetime. 80% of American women by the age of 50 have contracted some type of genital HPV and several hundred thousand women die of cervical cancer caused by HPV every year. Women are not the only ones affected by HPV. HPV infection is considered common in men, but they usually have no symptoms. They can, however, still pass the virus on to their partner who may develop a serious disease. Although it is considered rare, some men will develop penile and anal cancer from HPV, about one in every 100,000. Gay and bisexual men are 17 times more likely to get HPV related anal cancer than heterosexual men.
Science Daily reports a sharp increase in Tonsil Cancer caused by HPV. Out of 120 patents tested in Sweden with Tonsil Cancer, 83 of them tested positive for HPV. That is a 93% increase since 1970. In the past, Tonsil Cancer was usually connected to smoking. This illustrates the alarming increase in HPV patients. It is more than likely this record of increase that has spawned the research and cultivation of vaccinations like Gardasil.
HPV or Human Papillomavirus has about 130 types, with about 30 to 40 of those being types that are sexually transmitted. The different HPV types are labeled by number and they cause some type of skin or mucous membrane wart or lesion. HPV and warts are referred to by the different strains of the virus. Types 2 and 7 are associated with common hand warts, while 1, 4 and sometimes 2 cause foot warts called plantar warts. Plantar warts occur on the soles of the foot and represent a small skin lesion with a cauliflower like shape and a tiny black hemorrhage spot in the center. Types 3 and 10 are flat warts. These are flat skin lesions, reddish brown in color and are usually found on the hands and face. This type is more commonly found in children. Types 6 and 11 and others are the type that cause genital warts, a sexually transmitted disease. Almost all cases of cervical cancer develop from HPV type 16, 18, 31 and 45. Some HPV types have no symptoms whatsoever.
HPV can infect the body and then become dormant for years. At a later date it can awaken and cause an infection in an unsuspecting partner with sexual or skin to skin contact. The virus is transmitted by direct contact and not by bodily fluids. The virus enters the skin or mucous membranes through micro abrasions in the tissues and then it begins to divide and grow in the body. Sometimes years pass before lesions appear and the virus is detected. This makes it hard to determine in some cases which partner the virus was contracted from.
There is no specific HPV test for men on the market. Women are tested for HPV as part of a regular screening for cervical cancer known as the Pap Test. But there is no way to conduct a general test in the body for the HPV virus and even if there was, the virus usually goes away on its own without causing a disease. It is more important to find out if you have a disease that was caused by HPV than it is to find out if you have HPV.
The only sure method of prevention is total abstinence from sexual activity and skin to skin contact. In addition to this, a vaccine called Gardasil was developed to prevent certain types of HPV, specifically the types that cause cervical cancer and genital warts. It is recommended that the vaccine be given to girls ages 9-12 since it is most effective in girls who have not become sexually active yet. Gardasil is administered in 3 doses over a six month period of time. The Gardasil vaccine is not for girls that are pregnant or have an allergy to yeast. Side effects of the vaccine are mild and range from redness, itching and swelling at the site of injection to nausea, vomiting and dizziness. The use of a condom during sexual activity may slightly reduce the chance of contracting HPV, but it is certainly no guarantee, because skin that is not covered by the condom may still be able to pass the infection.

BY ALINE REYNOLDS | Local residents are on edge about the city's disposition of three of its Downtown buildings, worrying that the neighborhood might not get enough bang for its buck in terms of public benefits.
New public school seats and affordable apartments are musts for the buildings once they are acquired by private developers, members of Community Board 1's Planning and Community Infrastructure Committee told city official Theresa Ward at its May meeting.
Ward, chief asset management officer for the city Department of Citywide Administrative Services, appeared before the committee to present the Civic Center Plan, a three-year initiative that involves consolidating close to 20 city agencies into unused, newly furnished office space in the Municipal Building (at 1 Centre St.) and elsewhere.
The board's demand for public amenities corresponds specifically with the city's forthcoming sale of 22 Reade St. and 49-51 Chambers St., which currently house C.B. 1 offices and the Department of City Planning among other government agencies. The disposition of the third site at 346 Broadway was already approved in the late 1990s and will be sold in conjunction with the other two buildings, according to Ward.
The plan promises to save the city some $100 million over the next 20 years. "We learned the city has more office space than it needs, and much of it is underutilized and in very poor condition," she explained.
But to the committee's dismay, Ward conveyed that opening a school at one of the three locations isn't in the cards.
The city Department of Education's School Construction Authority evaluated the three sites and "really felt all three buildings were not suitable for schools," she said.
In a written quote, the D.O.E. countered locals' call for the siting of new schools, insisting that it is "on track to meet the growing demand for school seats in Lower Manhattan" by opening the 700-seat Peck Slip School.
While C.B. 1 has a 60-day window to formally comment on the city's plan for the buildings, board members are already raising questions and concerns. Catherine McVay Hughes, the board's vice chair, emphasized the need for a new school, despite the city's claims.
"If this becomes a residential building, where the families are going to be living, it's going to increase the overcrowding in our schools already," said Hughes. "If you are going to build more residential…the infrastructure has to be in place."
Adam Malitz, a lifelong resident of Independence Plaza North (I.P.N.), one of Downtown's original affordable housing developments, asserted that Downtown has a "serious shortage" of affordable housing units.
"I don't mean rent-stabilized where it starts at $4,000 a month," he said. "I mean, we're looking at section eight tenants [and] at people who can move in at an actual middle-class rate."
Committee chair Jeff Galloway agreed, arguing that Downtown is becoming less and less diverse. "We're not saying we don't like wealthy people moving in and doing whatever they want to do," he said, "but we don't want this to be just like a sliver of the Upper East Side."
Malitz went on to ask why the city didn't require prospective developers to include public infrastructure in their proposals, which are due by July. Ward replied saying that the city has to generate "significant" revenue in order to finance the relocation of the panoply of agencies and therefore didn't want to make the Request for Proposals (R.F.P.) restrictive.
"Developers that respond to city R.F.P. are very well aware they need to propose something the community would respect," Ward added.
However, Brian Cook, director of land use for Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, stressed the importance of spelling out the community's needs in the R.F.P. Stringer wrote letters to city officials in January underscoring the need for public facilities in the buildings.
"I haven't seen many developers come and propose a public school unless it's required or physically asked for by the city," said Cook. "If it's not in the R.F.P., I don't think it's likely."
For years, C.B. 1 chair Julie Menin has been pushing for a revision to the city charter to oblige developers to incorporate public infrastructure in their buildings proposals.
"We can't continue to build thousands of new residential units Downtown without building the proper amount of school seats and affordable housing," she said. "If there was legislation that mandated these types of standards, we wouldn't be in this problem."
Local stakeholders are scheduled to meet with Stringer on Thurs., May 17 to discuss the community's needs with respect to the disposition of the city-owned properties.
I think they should start building another public school at a different and better location. They could start planning and get a Bentley crane hire for the construction. This would be better than to constantly think of the building location as a problem.
This web site is genuinely a walk-through for all of the information you wanted about this and didn't know who to ask. Glimpse here, and you will surely discover it.
you've got an excellent weblog here! would you like to create some invite posts on my weblog?
I am actually delighted to this web site posts. I'm really glad I did.

What's in my Styling Kit – The Lint Roller
The Lint Roller
Lint rollers have to be one of the best inventions and get me fuzz-free fast and I use them regularly when on shoots. For me having a fluffy white Shih Tzu has always made wearing black clothes a bit of a problem and now to make things worse, I just rescued a fluffy black puppy too. Obviously I was not thinking fashion when I saw this adorable little puppy. I now keep a lint roller by the front door and another mini roller in my car.
Lint Roller $3.75
My personal favourite for sticking power are by Scotch 🙂

One knows not what to say: A new product called the Kickbee Tummy Tweeter fits into a belt worn round a preggie's middle. It senses movement and sends a tweet reading, "I kicked Mommy at 9:01 pm on Mon, July 19!" The location is even listed as "from the womb." Too public? You can just have them texted to his phone. Still too ... something? I know!
Bottom line: I need my husband to jump when I text him. Like, when I'm putting our toddler to sleep and then find myself trapped under her sleeping bulk. Or I really, really need Nubi. Or I've lost my mucous plug. If his phone's going to buzz every time Birdie nudges my pancreas, he's going to tune it out faster than you can say, "Ray Romano."
But it did get me wondering: What if my soon-to-arrive baby has already inherited my social-networking tendencies -- and really could tweet from the womb? I think it'd go something ... a-like this ...
I could totally go for a frozen yogurt right now. I mean MY MOM could! Totally not thinking of myself.
