New 'The Walking Dead' Season 4 Trailer: Nowhere is Safe, Especially Not for Carol! (VIDEO)
AMC's 'The Walking Dead' season 4 has begun its press blitz over the past week, releasing all manner of new photos and content from the upcoming run of episodes set to premiere on October 13. Among the new offerings, we've got a first look at a brand new trailer for the new conflicts at our beloved prison haven, and things aren't looking too good for fan-favorite Carol!
"If you wanna live, you have to become strong," Carol tells a young girl we've not yet met before in the latest 'Walking Dead' season 4 trailer, likely one of the youths we'd earlier seen being instructed in knife use. Later on in the 30-second spot, Rick beckons out to Carol as she collects water from the outside walkway, unaware of a number of walkers advancing on her!
While we await the latest details from 'The Walking Dead' season 4, the next run of the AMC horror-drama will introduce 'The Wire' star Lawrence Gilliard, Jr. as comic character Bob Stookey, 'Twilight' vet Christian Serratos as Rosita Espinosa, Alanna Masterson as a new mystery character and upgrade actors Chad Coleman, Sonequa Martin-Green and Emily Kinney to series regulars. David Morrissey's villainous Governor will also return in season 4 as a series regular, though beyond this season his involvement seems unlikely.
It won't be long before 'The Walking Dead' season 4 comes shambling out, so take a look at the latest trailer above and give us your predictions for October 13 premiere "30 Days Without an Accident" in the comments!

After sitting with this situation for a few months, I thought you and the E-Hellions might be able to use this story as an example of how to make a Thank You note feel as cheap as possible…
I was recently invited to the baby shower of a relative, Amy. Seeing as I was unable to attend, I declined the invitation and asked the hostess (mommy-to-be, Amy's mother, Anna Marie) where I could mail a gift. Anna Marie never responded with an address so I pulled Amy's address from my book. I purchased some gifts from the registry, added in a few personal selections, wrapped them in cute themed gift wrap, and planned to mail them to the expectant parents. I decided to wait until the day before the event to send them so I wouldn't ruin the surprise of the shower.
On the evening of the shower, I received a call from another relative who was able to attend the event. She was appalled that when she presented her gift, Amy's sister-in-law checked her name off on a clipboard and handed her a pre-printed postcard that stated: "Thank you for the shower gift, we know that we will use it. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and the time you took to choose it!" The card was signed with the names of the expecting parents, but appears to be signed in Anna Marie's handwriting! My upset confidant said that Amy refused to open the shower gifts in front of the group at the shower, counter to family tradition. I wondered aloud if maybe a more personalized thank you note would follow the private gift-opening.
Four months go by and the baby has arrived, healthy and adorable. I receive a post card with a lovely picture of the newborn on one side… and the pre-printed poem on the other: "Thank you for the shower gift, we know that we will use it. We appreciate your thoughtfulness and the time you took to choose it!" Again the note is signed with the parents' names, but appears to be in Anna Maria's handwriting and was mailed using Anna Maria's return address. I hear from my relative who originally mentioned the cards that she received the same thing- a duplicate of the impersonal Thank You postcard. At least the poem writer knew we would choose useful, thoughtful gifts!
I have included an edited screenshot of the poem. The now blurred area contained the names of Poem Baby's parents. 0812-14

(Phoenix, Ariz. – Sept. 24, 2008) Attorney General Terry Goddard today called upon the Bush administration to withdraw a proposed regulation that he believes would infringe upon patients' rights and states' ability to enact fair and uniform health care policies.
In a letter sent to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) earlier today, Goddard and 12 other state Attorneys General urged the department to withdraw a proposed provider conscience regulation. The rule would require health care facilities to permit care providers to deny service based on personal or moral belief or face revocation of DHHS and other federal funding.
"This proposed rule is dangerously vague and puts women's access to birth control and other health services at risk in many cases, including rape," Goddard said. "The rights of patients and of health care providers need to be carefully balanced. This rule would upset that balance and jeopardize the availability of vital health care to women."
In their letter, the Attorneys General said, "The proposed regulation completely obliterates the rights of patients to legal and medically necessary health care services in favor of a single-minded focus on protecting a health care provider's right to claim a personal moral or religious belief."
The letter also notes that the proposed rule could prevent organizations on both sides of the abortion debate from fulfilling their primary missions.
"For example, Planned Parenthood may be unable to decline to hire physicians who refuse, on moral grounds, to provide medically necessary and legal terminations of pregnancy or contraception. Similarly, a religious-based hospital may be unable to take employment action against any health care provider who, for moral or ethical reasons, prescribes certain legal medications or medical procedures that are prohibited under the hospital's basic principles."
Two leading national medical associations, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Psychiatric Association, have also raised objections to the proposed rule.
A copy of the letter is available on the Attorney General's Web site, www.azag.gov . For more information, contact Anne Hilby at (602) 725-2200.

Jason Derulo Covers Lorde's 'Royals,' And It's Really Good
OMG, you guys! Jason Derulo has covered Lorde's 'Royals,' easily one of the most covered songs of 2013, and guess what? It's really good!
Derulo delivered his soulful version of the New Zealand singer's smash hit for the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. Since everyone and their mother covers the song, we were on the fence -- and then Derulo opened his mouth and we were like "Whoa!" Great job, dude!
There's something about performing at the Live Lounge. Covers come to life and match the power and impact of the original. Need even more proof, as if Derulo's cover wasn't enough? Well, Thirty Seconds to Mars blew us away with their cover of Rihanna's 'Stay.'
Derulo's version adds layers to the spare and newly Grammy nominated original, thanks to some more percussion and the female vocal harmony. We love how he changes the lyric to "You can call me King Bee."
He needed the help of a lyric sheet, but that's OK. His version was totally terrific, like everything he does.

wu-tang clan
Raekwon: Classic Material
- 2003-04-23 16:10:27
© The Wu-Tang Corp.
- 2003-04-23
[wimg=left]../images/covers/covers/onlybuilt4cubanlinx.jpg[/wimg]"I started doin' my thing when I was like 15 or 16. Hallway style, in the staircases," recalls Raekwon The Chef, one of the Wu-Tang Clan's mightiest swords. "It was like a hobby back then. You know, punch the beatbox out with your face towards the wall." Straight from these humble and recreational Staten Island beginnings (Rae's frist crew was called the Rec Posse) rose one of the most important forces in the history of hip-hop: the Wu-Tang Clan.
After their indisputably classic debut, Enter The Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers, which hit in late '93 and caught fire by mid-'94, individual MCs from the crew started to drop solo albums at a rapid pace. "We always planned solo projects [before 36 Chambers], that was definitely premeditated," says Raekwon. "We was organized, built from the ground up. And when we started working on the group album [in '93], that's when we started to really become a stronger force." By 1995 Method Man and Ol' Dirty Bastard had dropped theirs (both produced chiefly by RZA) and it was Raekwon's turn.
Only Built was recorded in early 1995, mostly in the basement of RZA's newly purchased Shaolin duplex. No nonsense involved, just beats and rhymes. Even though RZA was pumping out "10 beats a day of the illest, craziest shit," Wu members had to fight for theirs. "Sometimes we'd have to battle for RZA beats," Rae says. "Whoever's sword is the sharpest wins unanimously. A lot of people got beats I wanted, and vice-versa. But we always looked at everything as a collective effort."
Sprinkled with quotes and themes from gangster flicks like John Woo's The Killer and the Al Pacino classic Scarface, Raekwon and partner Ghostface Killah (who is featured on 12 of the LP's 17 tracks) created a gun- and money-filled world, interlocking intricate rhyme styles and showing off conspicuous wealth. "We was some street scholars who came from the underworld, where if you didn't represent, you didn't survive," Rae says today. "We really needed that album at the time. A lot of rappers wasn't being creative back then. We introduced shoes back to the game, we brought about different names and aliases. And we talked about shit out in the streets. That record inspired maybe 95% of the game's lyrics [afterwards]."
The Chef cooks up more words on his debut:
Back then, me and Ghost was on some real M-O-B shit, we had the names poppin' off. We was wearin' silks and shoes. Back then it was weird to see a rapper with shoes on. The video for that was off the hook. Ghost had the robe on. He was so fly that he didn't have to buy clothes no more!
Incarcerated Scarfaces:
I wrote that song in like 20 minutes. That song was more or less me comin' up with a hook for niggas who's locked up and got so much struggle in they way.
Guillotine [Swords]:
I think that song was a little piece of Method Man's album [Tical], as a skit. And I always told RZA that I wanted to use that beat. Genius was on there. He's like my older brother. He's been gettin' busy with it for longer than me.
Glaciers Of Ice:
That's probably my favorite song on there. The beat that RZA did had a weird type of sound. It always made me feel like it was a gun festival type of song. Like a fiesta with all nines out.
Verbal Intercourse:
That one, with me, Nas and Ghost on it, that was a headbanger for niggas too. Nas and me both came in the game around the same time, and we was feelin' each other's styles. We had a relationship back then. He'd come to Shaolin, and I was going out to Queens.
Wisdom Body:
That track was just Ghostface on there. I think I didn't even come in that day and Ghost spit that and I fell in love with it and it stayed being his track. It was his album, too. We were both puttin' in 200%.
Ice Cream:
To me that wasn't the biggest song, I didn't care about it too much at the time. It was to serve females and at the time I wasn't tryin' to do that. I might have fought for that not to be the single, but RZA knew [it should be].

Ga. man's wallet found, returned after 24 years
ACWORTH, Ga. (AP) -- A Georgia man who lost his wallet while waterskiing in North Carolina now has it back -- 24 years later.
Burton Maugans of Acworth tells WSB-TV that he received a call from a stranger who knew his age, his name and his birthdate. Maugans says he realized fairly quickly the stranger had found his wallet because it's the only one he'd ever lost.
The Georgia man says he was 18 when he went into the water with his wallet and it disappeared somewhere near Holden Beach in North Carolina.
North Carolina resident Jim Parker found it recently and searched the Internet for its owner. The wallet arrived in the mail in Georgia on Thursday. It still contained Maugans' high school identification from 1987, a library card and even an old bank card.

Oilcloth is one of my favorite spring fabrics, not only because of the bright and cheery prints and colors, but also because it lends itself so well to lots of springy items, like outdoor tablecloths, gardening aprons and rain-resistant totes. In the Sew News April/May issue, check out "Rags to Riches" to make a handy oilcloth rag (or plastic bag) dispenser that's great for spring cleaning:
Oilcloth can be a bit tricky to find, however, so here are seven online sources that carry a variety of oilcloth prints and colors:

Yale-Butler Box Score | Yale-Army Box Score
KISSIMMEE, Fla. - Holly Gutterud went 3-for-4 at the plate and struck out five in four innings in the circle as Yale cruised to a 9-2 victory over Army at the Rebel Games. Ashley Sloan, Megan Enyeart, Tracy Timm and Kyli Hanson all added two hits for the Bulldogs. Yale dropped its first game of the day to Butler 7-2. Christina Guerland singled and doubled for the Bulldogs.
"We came out a little flat against Butler, but rebounded well against Army," said Yale head coach Barbara Reinalda. "We need to make sure we play with the same intensity that we showed against Army in every game we play."
Against Army, the Bulldogs led 7-1 after two innings. Guerland doubled home the first run in the first and later scored on Enyeart's groundout.
Yale (3-1) added five runs in the second. Meredith Parks started the rally with a one-out single. Hanson then singled and Alexandra Canulli walked to load the bases. Sloan followed with a two-run single. With two out, Gutterud laced a two-run single to right field. Gutterud later scored the final run of the inning on a fielder's choice.
The Bulldogs scored their final two runs in the fourth. Gutterud, Enyeart and Timm all singled to start the inning. With one out, Hanson drew a bases loaded walk. Timm scored the game's final run on a wild pitch.
Gutterud allowed four hits to earn her first career victory. Rebecca Wojciak then pitched three scoreless innings of relief.
In the first game of the day against Butler, Jenny Jacobs homered leading off the second inning to give Butler a 1-0 lead. Amy Hyerczyk's two-run double in the fifth increased the lead to 3-0. Butler added a single run in the sixth and scored three times in the seventh.
Jennifer Chasteen retired the first seven Yale hitters before Jessica Meyer singled with one out in the third.
The Bulldogs scored both of their runs in the seventh. Guerland doubled and scored on Aracelis Torres's single to center. Katie Edwards then doubled home Torres. Jamie Wonderly then relieved Chasteen and retired the next two batters to end the game.
KR Ling started for the Bulldogs and allowed just one run in four innings. Deanna DiBernardi pitched the final three innings and yielded just two earned runs.
The Bulldogs are off until Wednesday when they play Saint Louis at 11 a.m. and Manhattan at 3 p.m.

Happy New Year and In Home Elderly Help
As the great ball drops in Times Square, we toast to wrapping up the old and bringing in the New Year. New Years Eve is usually celebrated with loved ones and is perfect for reflecting on the days behind and all that we have learned in the past year. The end of the year is also a good time to think of the ways we want improve our lives in the fresh start ahead.
New Years is often used to create resolutions to better ourselves. These promises to ourselves don't have to be intricate and complicated. It seems the more pressure we put on ourselves to change, the more difficult it becomes to keep these changes longer through the New Year. One way to start off the New Year is to promise to stay surrounded by loved ones. Finding time to spend with those we love is one of the best ways to boost mood and overall sense of wellbeing. Host a dinner party, invite a friend for coffee, and stop by a loved one's place just to say hi. The more we are around those we love, the better we'll feel and this will enhance a positive outlook on life.
It seems that New Years is often used to vow to exercise more. This is when we feel like we have neglected our physical health and make big promises to go to the gym more often. Sometimes life gets in the way and it seems harder to do on a daily basis. This is where starting small works best. Take a quick walk around the neighborhood. Choose to take the stairs instead of the escalator. Park a little further from the shopping center and walk in. The little steps are going to add up and improvements will be made gradually without making a huge impact on daily life.
The New Year is a great excuse to learn something new. Sign up for classes available in your community such as computer basics, woodworking, and art classes. Social classes like cooking and painting can be fun with a friend, and also a great way to make a new friend.
Spending time with those we love is special and irreplaceable. Our elderly loved ones may find that getting out the house on a regular basis is difficult to do alone. This year, find a reason to bring cheer to their home. Stop by for a chat, bring by some dinner and offer to help with grocery shopping when possible. The little things really mean the most to those we love.
If you would like to learn more about caring and consistent in home care for seniors, along with the many benefits of professional live in care for the elderly, or dementia and Alzheimer's care, call Senior Helpers of Clearwater to speak to a senior care specialist today 727-210-1414!

Cartoonist Profile: Eddie Germano
photo by Stanley A. Bauman
Eddie Germano started his newspaper career working for just $18.00 per week with the Boston Post as an office boy. He did all the usual petty jobs (including buying ice cream sodas for the paper's managing editor), but he was always interested in newspaper art. He was paid the staggering sum of $5.00 when his first published cartoon appeared in his home town weekly. After a stint in the Army, he began drawing sports cartoons on a free-lance basis and doing other odd jobs in art as he attended art courses in Boston in the evening.
In 1948, Germano took his first full-time newspaper cartooning job. He worked with several papers in Florida and Massachusetts before joining the Brockton Enterprise in 1963. During his tenure there, he won several national awards in editorial cartooning and exhibited his work in the United States and Canada.

Some days are such, I want dinner made under 10 minutes. This does not necessarily mean I pop in the microwave a TV dinner. By now, you know my habit of cooking fresh and homemade and from-the-scratch. Well, its not really a myth to do all that in 10 minutes. Or 20 maybe.
Here is something that will give Rachael Ray a run for her money – my Chili-Garlic Prawn, with an approximate cook time of 10.
Ingredients for Chili-Garlic Prawn are:
10 large shrimps, remove shell, keep tail and devein. I used the black colossal tiger shrimps from St. Lawrence Market.
For the marinade:
3 tablespoons dark soy sauce
3 tablespoons tomato ketchup
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 heaped tablespoon cornstarch
Pinch of black pepper powder
Pinch of sugar
White of 1 egg
Mix all the above ingredients in a bowl and dunk the shrimps in it. Keep for 20-30 minutes.
For the sauce:
1 medium size onion, yellow or red, cut into quarters and petals separated
5-6 fat cloves of garlic, sliced
3-4 green chilies, sliced
3 tablespoons Sambal Oelek
2 tablespoons tomato ketchup
2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
1 teaspoon white vinegar
Pinch of sugar
3+3 tablespoons canola oil
Heat half the oil in a Chinese wok. Remove the prawns from the marinade and shallow fry them in the hot oil, turning them mid way. Give each side of the shrimp about 2-3 minutes in the heat, so that its tail curl up and it turns pink. Do this in batches if your wok is small. Keep them aside.
Start with a clean wok to make the sauce and finish the dish. Heat the remaining oil and add the garlic and green chilies. Sauté for a couple of minutes without turning the garlic brown. Toss in the onions. Sweat them on high for 3-4 minutes.
In a bowl, mix together the tomato ketchup, sambal oelek, soy sauce, and sugar. Pour it on the onions, etc. Give it a good stir and let it cook for 3-4 minutes on high heat. Check the seasoning and adjust accordingly. Add the vinegar. I did not add any salt to my dish as all the sauces have ample salt in them.
Now add the prawns to the sauce. Coat them well, cook for 2-3 minutes in the sauce and turn the heat off. Serve immediately with steamed rice or a fried rice you like.
Now who was keeping the time?

Scene and Heard: Casa Baltimore/Limay's Salsa Sensation
Pictured: Tabitha Hitchye-Holliday and Claudette Rhone It was a chilly February night. But inside 2640 -- an events space in the old rectory of St. John's United Methodist Church -- the atmosphere was hot, hot, hot. At the Salsa Sensation party, Latin music blared from a sound system, manned by Guillermo Brown, producer/host of WEAA's "Fiesta Musical." Meanwhile, Tabitha Hitchye-Holliday, Dance In Time Productions and Baltimore Salsa Dance Company salsa teacher, put folks through their paces on the dance floor. The evening of food, drink and salsa was a fundraiser for Casa Baltimore/Limay, a friendship-city project between the people of Baltimore and San Juan de Limay, Nicaragua. "This time of year is a low period. We could use a lift, so we figured maybe other people did, too," said Barbara Larcom, Casa Baltimore/Limay project manager. "We have wonderful people come with an enthusiastic spirit. It's a fun night," said Carol Berman, who was serving double-duty as Casa Baltimore/Limay treasurer and the evening's bartender. Among those who had turned out for the event was a group of students from Loyola University Maryland, led by Alejandro Gutierrez, Loyola senior. "I'm like the president of an unofficial salsa group at Loyola," Gutierrez said. Leslie Salgado, Maryland Transit Administration civil engineer, brought a group from the Howard County Friends of Latin America. Some joined in on the salsa lesson. Virginia Rodino, Service Employees International Union senior communication strategist, opted to skip the lesson and wait for the dancing. "I'm waiting to blend in," Salgado explained. -- Sloane Brown

Model "A Day in the Life …" for Better Collaboration
There's a lot of collaboration technology out there and deciding which technology to invest in can be daunting. How often have you heard of a company making a major investment in technology for it to become "shelfware" and never see deployment? How often have you heard of a company that's deployed a technology, yet nobody in the company is willing to use it? How often have you heard of a company that has several products from different vendors that do exactly the same thing?
It doesn't take much to realize that each of these situations has a negative impact and the cause of each situation stem from different reasons, but usually with the best intentions. Shelfware occurs because of undeployed licenses in ELA's or quantity purchases for better per seat pricing. Unfortunately, the business doesn't grow and the company is obligated to pay for unused licenses. Other times, a company deploys a product with great features that is too complex or doesn't integrate well with workflows and remains unused. Lastly, individual departments may make purchase decisions based on their needs without consulting IT or other departments resulting in redundant solutions that compete internally with each other.
In considering collaboration strategy, it is key to consider how employees will use the capabilities you're looking to deploy and how they'll be used in everyday workflows. The best way to do this is to model typical "day in the life" scenarios of employees. These are similar to use case scenarios but more extensive in that they follow a role throughout the day – stringing together isolated use cases. In doing this, you often uncover additional requirements. You'll want to model these "day in the life" scenarios for different departments, such as sales, marketing, and customer service. You'll see the same technologies such as voice, video, IM, presence, and social being used in each and every one of these workflows.
By modeling several "day in the life" scenarios and how they fit into a comprehensive collaboration architecture, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the requirements of your individual business stakeholders. You can determine horizontal technologies that become the foundation for use case solutions across workflows and departments. The use of horizontal collaboration solutions will help remove the technical silos that are created when departments make independent investments. Knowing which users require certain capabilities will allow you to more accurately account for license requirements and pool across departments for quantity discounts, but also park licenses that aren't being utilized to reduce support costs. By standardizing on the collaborative technology and solutions that are best for your enterprise needs the complexity of multiple integrations goes away and internal support efforts are reduced.
With greater visibility into collaboration requirements you're better positioned to demonstrate the business value of the technology investments you're making. Effectively drawing the line of sight from a budget line item to the business results in the forms of productivity, growth, and innovation. More importantly, you'll discover how to select and use Cisco products and solutions that deliver greater value to your users as they go through their daily activities.
If you'd like to learn more, I encourage you to watch some visual "day in the life" scenarios as examples. Also, let me know if you've taken this approach in your company. If so, then what day in the life scenarios did you model and what role did collaborative technologies play in them.
In an effort to keep conversations fresh, Cisco Blogs closes comments after 60 days. Please visit the Cisco Blogs hub page for the latest content.

So we told you about Dan Gilbert's son, who won the draft lottery tonight, but was born with neurofibromatosis, a disease that means tumors can grow throughout his body without warning.
Whereas Minnesota Timberwolves GM David Kahn is just a festering sore on the NBA's body politic.
"This league has a habit, and I am just going to say habit, of producing some pretty incredible story lines," Kahn said. "Last year it was Abe Pollin's widow and this year it was a 14-year-old boy and the only thing we have in common is we have both been bar mitzvahed. We were done. I told Kevin: 'We're toast.' This is not happening for us and I was right."
Perhaps the Timberwolves will have better luck next year, when they will win the lottery after David Kahn is fired, deported, sent to Spain, and forced to work as Ricky Rubio's houseboy. Say hello to Harrison Barnes, Minny! The Clippers own the T-Wolves' pick next year. Even when you win, you lose.

Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital turns 50
In July 1965, the first U.S. military ground troops were deployed in Vietnam, "Wooly Bully" was the number one song and the Super Ball bounced onto the shelves of toy stores nationwide. The U.S. Congress passed the Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act requiring every pack to have a warning label stating "Cigarettes may be hazardous to your health." And, President Lyndon Johnson signed the Social Security Act into law, creating Medicare.
Closer to home, General Hospital of Virginia Beach opened its doors on First Colonial Road, providing much-needed services to the fledgling new City of Virginia Beach. On Saturday, July 11, 2015, Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital, a 276-bed acute care facility, celebrates fifty years of serving the community and meeting the growing needs of its burgeoning population.
"It was an exhilarating time," recalls Andrew Dickinson, M.D. "Doctors, nurses, administration, the Board…everyone involved was new to the community healthcare culture. We were young and ambitious, excited about the challenge and out to prove we were the best."
Dickinson was part of the original medical staff and has since served as president of the medical staff and the Virginia Beach Medical Society, director of the Cardiology Department, and a board member for Sentara Healthcare and the Virginia State Board of Health.
Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital began as a community effort. In 1962 the community raised nearly $1 million to build a hospital by knocking on doors, holding benefit concerts, collecting old newspapers, sponsoring food tents at horse shows and selling paintings at the Boardwalk Art Show.
At the dedication ceremony in 1965, Virginia Governor Albertis S. Harrison Jr. declared, "This is a shining example of what can be accomplished by an inspired and aroused citizenry."
daVinci® Robotic Surgery System to be added to Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital
Sentara Healthcare recently approved a $2.7M capital investment in a daVinci® Robotic Surgery System to enhance the gynecology, urology and colorectal surgery programs at Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital. The daVinci system will support oncology services and development of a comprehensive women's health program focused on ease of access and coordination of services for women in midlife. The addition of the daVinci system demonstrates the evolution of the hospital's programs to serve changing healthcare needs and the Sentara mission to improve health every day.
A demonstration of the daVinci robot's precision surgical tools is scheduled in the hospital lobby at 10:45 a.m. on Saturday, July 11 following the 10 a.m. ceremony marking the hospital's 50th anniversary.
Community Invited to Health Fair Saturday, July 11, 2015
Throughout its rich history, the hospital has remained a symbol of community pride and achievement. To commemorate this occasion, Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital invites the public to attend a Community Celebration and Health Fair on Saturday, July 11, 2015.
Saturday, July 11, 2015, 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.

Virginia Beach, VA 23454
Remarks begin at 10 a.m. for 30 minutes, followed by Community Health Fair featuring pet therapy dogs, massages, food, music, face painting and family-friendly fun. Free health screenings: blood pressure, cholesterol, BMI, skin cancer, glucose testing. The hospital's mass casualty evacuation bus and emergency tent hospital will also be on display.
Event speakers include: Bernie Boone, president, Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital; Dr. Joseph McDermott, medical staff president; Dr. Andrew Dickinson, retired cardiologist; The Honorable Will Sessoms, mayor, City of Virginia Beach; and Peggy Braun, RN, nurse executive.

Sarah Churman, the Deaf Woman Who Heard Herself For First Time, Gets a Surprise From 'Ellen' [VIDEO]
Last week, a video of 29-year old Sarah Churman's emotional reaction to hearing for the first time after receiving a cochlear implant circulated the internet.
Churman appeared on 'Ellen' this week, and spoke about the extraordinary feeling of hearing new sounds like her childrens' voices, thunder and even her husband's snoring.
Churman also addressed her speaking voice, which has been the topic of much internet discussion as she lacks the usual speech impediment of a (formally) deaf person. Churman attributed her clear diction to speech therapy and being a "big talker."
Make sure you watch the 'Ellen' segment below to the end, as it contains a surprise that will probably make you well up as much as you did when you saw the original video of Churman hearing for the first time.

The Prada pre-fall 2013 campaign has already been released. It might seem a little premature to discuss pre-fall options already, yet time is perceived differently in the fashion industry. Plus getting a glimpse of the new options to come can enable us to make a better set of choices this season. In the end, making choices which have plenty of mileage trend-wise is always more satisfactory than getting fab pieces only to discover that they have fallen into disgrace.

The Android revolution began about 3 years back and its stunning growth has dwarfed the growth of even iOS (iPhone) as a mobile platform. It is now the most popular mobile OS in the US, and is on its way to becoming the most used mobile OS in the world. It is expected to overtake Symbian soon, and will soon be the Windows of the mobile world.
Unlike Apple which always ignores India when launching new products, most Android manufacturers have made sure that they launch new Android smartphones in India at the same time as the worldwide launch.
As I've said before, 2011 is going to be the year of Android. We have seen a lot of exciting devices at CES, MWC and CTIA 2011. Most of these devices will either be launched soon, or have been launched already.
In this post, I will show you the best Android phones that money can buy. Despite the title, the list is relevant to users around the world, not just Indians.
1. Samsung Galaxy S 2
This is definitely the best Android smartphone that money can buy. It has received the best reviews yet, and offers the best overall package, compared to any other Android phone. It is the successor to the most popular Android phone of 2010 – the Samsung Galaxy S.
It has an excellent 4.3 inch SuperAMOLED Plus display which has a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. It comes with an 8 MP camera which can record 1080p video, a 1.2 GHz dual core Exynos processor, 1 GB RAM and 16 GB internal storage. It runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread with TouchWiz 4.0.
It is expected to be launched by the end of May 2011 and will be priced at around Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 35,000.
2. HTC Sensation
The HTC Sensation is probably the only phone which can rival the Samsung Galaxy S 2 in terms of specifications and features.
It will come with a 4.3 inch S-LCD touchscreen display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. It will come with Android 2.3 Gingerbread and has the HTC Sense 3.0 UI, which is widely regarded as the best third party Android UI.
It has a dual core 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, an Adreno 220 GPU and 768 MB RAM. It also comes with an 8 MP camera with dual LED flash which can record 1080p video at 30 FPS. It has 1 GB internal storage, and is a bit heavier than the Galaxy S 2, at 148 gms. It will likely be launched soon, but we have no idea about the pricing.
3. LG Optimus 2X
The LG Optimus 2X was the first Android smartphone with a dual core processor. While it was launched some time back, it is still one of the best Android phone options in India. In the US, you can buy the T-Mobile G2X which is identical to the Optimus 2X, and comes with pure Android 2.2 Froyo.
It comes with a 4 inch LCD touchscreen display with a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels. It also has a 1 GHz dual core Cortex A9 processor (Tegra 2) and offers 1 GB RAM. It has an 8 MP camera and can also capture 1080p video at 24 FPS. Though it's not as good as the Samsung Galaxy S 2, it is much cheaper. You can get it for as much as Rs. 28,000.
Buy the LG Optimus 2X on Amazon.
4. Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc
The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc was recently launched and is probably the most stylish Android smartphone to date. It is extremely slim, and has a very sleek design. It comes with a 4.2 inch display and has a 1 GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon processor, an Adreno 205 GPU and 512 MB RAM. It also offers an excellent 8 MP camera, which makes it the best Android camera phone. It is powered by Android 2.3 Gingerbread and has the Sony Ericsson custom Android UI.
It is available for Rs 28,000.
Buy the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc at Flipkart.
Buy the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc at Amazon.
5. Sony Ericsson Xperia Play
The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is another notable Android phone. It deviates from the touchscreen only trend in Android phones, and features a unique gaming keypad which slides out from under the display. It has the same hardware as the Xperia Arc – 1 GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon processor, an Adreno 205 GPU and 512 MB RAM.
It also has a 5 MP camera and Android 2.3 Gingerbread, but the main attraction is the library of exclusive PSP games which it supports. If you are a gamer, and want an Android smartphone, the Xperia Play is the device you should get.
It is priced at Rs. 30,000.

6. HTC Incredible S
HTC was the top dog in the Android arena an year back, but since the launch of the Galaxy S, Samsung has become the dominant player. HTC, though, has been trying to get back to the top.
The HTC Incredible S is one of the best Android smartphones by HTC. It comes with Android 2.2 Froyo and the HTC Sense 3.0 UI, probably the best third party Android UI. It will definitely get an upgrade to Android 2.3 Gingerbread and comes with a 4 inch, 480 x 800 pixel display.

Nominations for the Independent Spirit Awards were announced Tuesday with a mix of well-known, critically acclaimed films such as "In the Bedroom" and "Memento" joining edgier and more controversial films such as "L.I.E." and "The Believer" among the nominations.
The films in the running for best feature are "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," based on John Cameron Mitchell's popular cross-gender musical; "L.I.E.," a drama about a child molester; "Memento," a quirky thriller about memory loss; "Things Behind the Sun," Allison Anders' semiautobiographical story about rape; and Richard Linklater's animated philosophical feature "Waking Life."
Some in the independent film community were critical of the Spirit Awards in past years because many of the nominations included more mainstream, higher-budget films that were also nominated for Oscars and other honors. But this year the jury appears to have selected more independent fare, nominating some films that have not even been distributed -- if a film shows at a festival, it is eligible for a Spirit Award -- or that were released only for a limited time.
"This year's nominees especially represent the diversity and range of unique voices and artistic vision," said Dawn Hudson, executive director of Independent Feature Project West.
Nominations for best first feature are "The Anniversary Party," a satire about self-indulgent Hollywood types; "The Believer," about a Jewish man who becomes a neo-Nazi; "Donnie Darko," an offbeat family drama with supernatural elements; "Ghost World," a dark comedy about two disaffected teens; and the family drama "In the Bedroom."
For best female lead, Kim Dickens was nominated for her work in "Things Behind the Sun," Molly Parker for "The Center of the World," Sissy Spacek for "In the Bedroom," Tilda Swinton for "The Deep End" and Kerry Washington for "Lift."
In the best male lead category, Brian Cox was nominated for "L.I.E.," Ryan Gosling for "The Believer," Jake Gyllenhaal for "Donnie Darko," Mitchell for "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" and Tom Wilkinson for "In the Bedroom."
Best supporting female actor nominees are Davenia McFadden for "Stranger Inside," Carrie-Anne Moss for "Memento," Summer Phoenix for "The Believer," Tamara Tunie for "The Caveman's Valentine" and Uma Thurman for "Tape."
For best supporting male actors, Steve Buscemi was nominated for "Ghost World," Don Cheadle for "Things Behind the Sun," Billy Kay for "L.I.E.," Garrett Morris for "Jackpot" and John C. Reilly for "The Anniversary Party."
The awards ceremony, to be held March 23, one day before the Academy Awards, is sponsored by IFP West, a nonprofit group that assists independent filmmakers.
Over the years, as the independent film world gained clout, so did the Spirit Awards. When it began 17 years ago, the ceremony was an intimate affair held at a restaurant for a few hundred guests.
Today it has exploded into a major media event, with several thousand people invited for a fancy lunch under a tent at a Santa Monica beach.

Chalala's wood-fired baking for wholesale - Part 2
... Continued from the previous post - Chalala's Felton Miche - Wood-fired baking for a food festival - Part 1
I have heard a wood-fired oven being likened to a battery. You store energy, use it and then store it again. I still find it completely captivating watching the flames dance across the roof of the oven. Watching the black walls turn clear of soot and start to burn clean. Laurie and I stood in front of its solid heat marvelling at the flames while discussing heat retention and oven management. Laurie still finds it as fascinating today as when he first built it. The night after the food festival we were refiring the oven for Laurie's wholesale customers. These breads would be delivered to cafes and households in and around the Toowoomba region. It was a modest bake in comparison to the Food Festival bake – approximately 170 loaves.
We were better prepared for the cooler temperatures and thus increased leaven quantities and paid even more care to the dough temperatures. A day of continual dough shaping was beginning to pay off for me. It gave me an increased awareness and I was able to react to subtle differences each dough that came off that wonderful diving arm mixer. Laurie bakes more tin loaves for his wholesale customers and he is obsessive in his quest for lofty bread proofed ever so carefully to the top of a tin. We worked well into the day, shaping and baking and shaping and baking. Towards the end of the day I was shaping and loading the oven by myself with Laurie keeping a careful eye and giving me gentle encouragement on the best order to fill the oven. Loading an oven loaf–by-loaf on a peel really is an art in itself.
As the afternoon approached we spent a few hours giving the bakery a thorough scrub down from top to bottom as the last load of fruit bread baked in the cooling oven. We were finished for the day. Rhonda had a prepared a dinner fit for kings and we slumped into chairs with a glass of red in hand. The following day I floated back to Brisbane and delivered bread for friends on my way home and that night Nat listened patiently to my stories of diving arm mixers, wood-fired ovens and shaping bread.

Baseball has a pretty standard soundtrack. You've got "The Star-Spangled Banner," "Take Me Out to the Ball Game," and, here in Baltimore, "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" during the seventh-inning stretch. But during recent trips to Camden Yards, we've heard some cuts more up our alley—a wide range of seminal alternative bands from the '80s.
Bob "Woody" Popik, who has served as the Orioles' in-house DJ for 14 years, is the one delightfully sprinkling Morrissey, New Order, and the Jesus and Mary Chain in among the standard Top 40 and classic-rock fare. On the night before a key series with the Red Sox, we talked to Popik about how he managed to sneak these gems in for baseball crowds of up to 45,000 people. (Brandon Weigel)
City Paper: It seems to be just over the last couple years that we've been hearing alternative bands at Camden Yards. Can you rattle off a list of some of the ones? I'm thinking the Pixies, the Cure, the Smiths.
Bob Popik: Most certainly. The Jesus and Mary Chain, the Smiths, Depeche Mode. Actually, it's funny, the only radio station I really listen to for music is WTMD. A friend was listening one day and they said, "They just mentioned you on the air." One of the DJs—Janet, I guess—was there at the game and heard Translator, "Everywhere That I'm Not," so she mentioned me on the air, which is kind of nice. I've gotten away with playing Bauhaus—the first two minutes of "Bela Lugosi's Dead" are basically all instrumental, so I play that sometimes during a ceremony or something like that because I absolutely love the beat of that song.
It's [taken] a long time to kind of introduce that stuff. The Orioles give me a pretty wide berth, which is nice. No one at the Orioles has ever said, "Hey, you can't play this or that."
CP: Do you remember a moment where you said, "Hey, I'm going to try this"? Whatever the first song was that you were like, I'm going to veer into more alternative territory.
BP: I played "London Calling." I remember that was one light-bulb moment where I was, "Hey, I'm getting away with playing 'London Calling.'" There's a song called "Cerulean" by the Ocean Blue that talks about blue skies, so on a sunny Sunday, I throw that in.
I remember I used to play this song by Morrissey called "Boxers." The [opening] lyric is something like "Losing in your hometown." Well, that song went great when we lost. But the song was too honest, almost, with the lyric. I played that maybe for a year and then I started playing it the next year—and I can't remember when I started playing it, maybe around 2003, 2004—and the grounds crew was like, "Come on man, you gotta cut [it out]."
CP: There are a lot of people there sitting in the stands, like families or people who just aren't as into music, who have probably never heard these songs before. How do you try to find a way to catch their ear?
BP: If you're a lover of music, it doesn't matter where the source is coming from as long as you understand, "Wow, this is great." There are apps on phones now where people can hold it up and find the name of the song. And I hope people are doing that. That would warm my heart.
What I'm thinking about is our core group. When you think about families coming to the games, the parents are basically 35 to maybe 45, 50, with children. Most of the people may or may not have heard of the Smiths. They may have heard "How Soon Is Now?," but they don't know some of the tracks I'm playing. Maybe I'm trying to play to our fan base, the parents, and then, in turn, turn the kids on to that stuff.
I think the stadium should be a broad array of music and not just sticking to Michael Jackson and the simple, mindless dance stuff I do have to play. And I know my words diminish those kinds of songs, but they have their place. I play Vengaboys "We Like to Party," and people are going nuts and they're clapping along with the song and they love it. It's not one of my personal favorites, but it serves a purpose.
CP: When you're going through the course of a game, how many songs do you get to pick?
BP: I probably play somewhere around 19 songs with inning breaks. Every inning has a half-inning. Sometimes we may do a feature that has its own music to it. That's another thing that gives me freedom. They're made by our editors and they put [on] songs that are very up-to-date, and they're dance-y. So they're taking care of that end with the popular stuff. If I can throw in maybe 30 seconds of the Jesus and Mary Chain before the inning starts back up, I'm happy.
I don't want to make it seem like I'm some '80s alternative champion where "my '80s have to be heard." I'm looking at it like an old-time radio station, where I'm rotating genres and music.
CP: You talked about blending, sort of making it seamless. What's the trick to do that?
BP: The main trick, I guess, is to try and play songs by the bands that I like that aren't overtly unrecognizable. I can get away with playing Depeche Mode, I can play "Enjoy the Silence." Well, I think pretty much everybody has heard "Enjoy the Silence." I definitely wouldn't play something like "Blasphemous Rumors" or "Shake the Disease."
CP: But do they have a certain pop sensibility that makes it something you can play in front of 40,000 people.
BP: No one's overtly come up and said, "I think what you're doing is a little too off the middle-of-the-road here." And it goes back to that respect and that responsibility that I have to the organization to try to—even though I'm veering off the road at times—to kind of stay at least one tire or two wheels on the road.

In many ways, it was liberating and educational. After all, many cooks before me had survived sans KitchenAid. I whipped cream by hand, I chopped everything by hand, and I thinly sliced potatoes for mes tartiflettes, proving that I really could do most cooking with a pot, some heat and a spoon. It gave me confidence about my skills to create.
It also gave me gratitude when I returned. It's a lot of work to always do everything by hand, which is why I feel there is room for balance in the kitchen. Whipping up a bowl of brownies is easier done by hand than in the mixer and there's less to clean when you're done. Although, pesto from the food processor is such a speedy enterprise, why do it by hand? Knowing when to use the old fashioned method is just as important as knowing how to do it. I admit it is nice having options.
So, when I received a mandolin for Christmas this year, I immediately thought of the multitude of potato gratins I could make, and then I thought it looked awfully complicated and sort of like I could lose a finger if I tried to figure it out. I placed it in a drawer in my kitchen and forgot about it until last week, where I brought it out and used it not once, but twice in one meal.
I can proudly say that after the initial 30 seconds of awkwardness, I thinly sliced 5 potatoes in about 3 minutes. I was shocked. No wonder this is considered essential to restaurant chefs! The only downside is that it's now much easier to make those gratins and that's not so good for my diet.
But, the good news is that it really is easy and fun to use and I feel my horizon has broadened quite a bit. Now I will be a lot more motivated to make things I've shirked off in the past. Cabbage can be easily shredded for coleslaw and vegetables easily julienned. Onions can be sliced paper thin for salads. For those interested, my mandolin is this one. It's mostly made of plastic so it's dishwasher safe and it's very inexpensive. I was actually surprised that it worked so well.
This potato gratin is my version of a Gratin Dauphinois, the prince of scalloped potatoes. The French usually heat the cream, garlic and herbs on the stove before combining it with the potatoes and the results are divine. Use whatever herbs and cheese you like. Here I've given a traditional version, although I adore white cheddar and rosemary. Stay tuned for the other side dish I made with the help of my mandolin!
Cheesy Potato Gratin Dauphinois
5 medium yellow potatoes
1 ½ cups heavy cream
2 garlic cloves, smashed
fresh thyme and/or rosemary
Pepper (white pepper, if you have it)
Grated nutmeg
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 cup grated gruyere cheese
1. Wash the potatoes and peel them. Slice them thinly, about ¼ inch thick, with your knife or a mandolin. Thinly slice the onion, as well.
2. In a saucepan, bring the cream, garlic cloves, pinch of nutmeg, about 3 sprigs of fresh thyme and, optionally, 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary, ½ tsp salt and some pepper to a simmer over medium heat. Turn heat to low, cover, and cook 5-10 minutes. Remove the herbs and garlic clove and set aside.
3. Butter the bottom and sides of an 8x8 baking dish or small gratin dish. Layer ½ the potatoes on the bottom. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and onion slices. Add ½ the grated cheese over the potatoes. Pour some of the cream over this layer. Place the remaining potatoes in the pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the rest of the cream mixture over the potatoes and top with the rest of the cheese.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for about one hour, maybe 75 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving. Serves 4.


text: I have been to the Treasure Island Music Festival, but I didn't pay for my ticket, someone else bought it for me. However, it would've been the most I spent on a concert, and I would've gone again and I would be going to the Outside Lands this year, but I do not want to spend that amount of money now on a concert. I have not traveled too far to get to a concert, but thought about going somewhere just for a concert. I think the farthest I've gone is from San Francisco to Oakland. And that's not that far. So I would if I could, but now, I can't go and can't spend that money. I love going to concerts and love supporting my favorite bands and musical artists by going to a live concert, and usually you get to hear special songs that are not available on CD or available online and it usually is better than when you are listening at home. So, if anyone want to be my concert buddy, someone who will dance with me and have fun at concerts with me, let me know in the comments! 🙂

You've heard the old proverb, "fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Well that's the theme of a new billboard campaign that thumbs its nose at Harold Camping's bible-based prediction that the world will end on Friday, Oct. 21st. Camping is the 90-year-old California-based Christian radio media mogul who predicted the Rapture would occur May 21st followed by the end of the world on Oct. 21st. 2000 Billboards were put up all over the county to tell people to repent before it was too late. Tens of thousands of his followers gave up jobs and homes and life-savings in anticipation of their imminent physical translation to Heaven. When May 21 came and went without any Christians floating bodily up in the sky, the puzzled Camping said the Rapture must have occurred spiritually rather than physically but that the Earth would still be destroyed in October.
This time though, the Freedom From Religion Foundation is reacting with a little billboard campaign of their own. They can't afford to spend the estimated $100 million Harold Camping and his followers spent advertising the end of the world so they're only putting up 40 billboards in Oakland, where Camping lives and his Family Radio corporation has its offices. Two more will go up in nearby San Francisco.

I like the billboard. Do the people still believe him now after they gave away all their money the first time? I hope some of those xtians wised up this time and see him for the charlatan he is.
I think I did read somewhere online that some of his followers were upset with him the first time his predictions failed and they no longer believe him anymore.
I fully support making sure that any person who pushes for mass public awareness of such a claim doesn't get to live it down when it fails to come true. Also, I love these billboards. Kind of like the awesome end of the world shirt...

Malcolm: The Stallion
Today we begin with Malcolm Freberg. Malcolm is 25 years old and likes to wear headbands and bracelets. If ever bored we could totally play "Where's Waldo?" with him because of his charmingly striped royal blue shorts.
Continuing on, Malcolm comes to us from Hermosa Beach, California and he does the Lord's work. That's right. He's a bartender. (Gin please, barkeep) Malcolm describes himself as "charming, brilliant, and cocky" and cites OJ Simpson as his inspiration in life. *tiptoes slowly away from the bar*
Oh, it gets better. Malcolm says he'll play Survivor like our dear Lucifer (Russell) did. He intends to run the game from day one and rule with an iron fist. I wonder if that iron fist fits inside of the glove... If it doesn't fit, you must acquit. Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like we've got ourselves a villain. Yes!
Roll that beautiful bean footage. Please to enjoy:
Hellllooooo Malcolm! This isn't a pony before our eyes. This is a stallion. He's neighing away trying to break out of his barn and kicking up hay in every direction. Settle Malcolm, settle. Come, let me brush your mane. And bring another gin fizzy with you please.
So, Malcolm, Malcolm, Malcolm... I'm not going to lie, kids. I'm beaming a little bit right now. I've dunked and redunked. Glitter tits! THIS is who we need on these CBS shows. I want arrogant assholes all around me. I want to wade in a sea of cockiness and attitude. And as far as I'm concerned, more people should refer to themselves as sociopathic. Hallelujah! *glitter falls from the sky*
So, what do you guys think of Malcolm? Is he the answer to our villainous prayers? Comment it out bitches!

The AMAZON description: Gendered Passages is the first full-length book devoted to the gendered analysis of the lives of French-Canadian migrants in early-twentieth-century Lowell, Massachusetts. It explores the ingenious and, at times, painful ways in which French-Canadian women, men, and children adjusted to the challenges of moving to, and settling in, that industrial city. Yukari Takai uncovers the multitude of cross-border journeys of Lowell-bound French Canadians, the centrality of their family networks, and the ways in which the ideology of the family wage and the socioeconomic realities in Québec and New England shaped migrants lives on both sides of the border. Takai argues that French-Canadian husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters harboured complex interpersonal dynamics whereby differing and, at times, conflicting interests had to be negotiated in not necessarily equal terms, but in accordance with each members power and authority within the family and, by extension, larger society.
Cohoes, New York versus Lowell, Massachusetts: Where would you go if you were crossing the 49th parallel looking for work?
In the first chapter, "To the Wrong Side of the Border", Takai describes the predominate regions of Québec sending emigrants to Lowell, Massachusetts in the early twentieth century were Lanaudière and Maurice. Although hardly a stressed point in Takai's thesis, I find it very interesting. Lowell attracted French Canadians from Lanaudière and Maurice while, it would appear to me, Cohoes, smaller in size and manufacturing in the early 20th century, was attracting French Canadians from Montérégie and parts of the Richelieu Valley. Perhaps it was easier for Montérégie emigrants to make the trip directly south on the railroad into Cohoes. The Guertin (Yetto)), Bissonnette, Beauvais, St. Hilaire, Chaput, all came from the Richelieu Valley. The Rivet and the LaCasse families were exceptions. Instead of heading to Lowell like the majority of emigrants from Joliette and Lanaudiére, Maxime Rivet and Dedace LaCasse with their respective wives and children, headed to Cohoes at the end of the 19th century. Why did they come to Cohoes, New York instead of Lowell, Massachusetts? It's a perplexing question and cannot be easily solved. Did Maxime Rivet and/or Dedace LaCasse have prior relatives in Cohoes who wrote home and told them about the opportunities? Were there active recruiters from Cohoes in Joliette seeking manpower and womanpower for the mills? Although the answer isn't apparent at this time, perhaps someday my research will answer this question.
|New York Central Railroad Station in Cohoes: Where thousands of
French Canadians Disembarked to work in the Cohoes Textile Mills
|Another view from the south of the New York Central Station
Meanwhile, reading Gendered Passages, encourages me to consider the crossing from Lanaudiére to Cohoes, instead of Lowell, may have more to do with the women. Marie Lord and Marie Louise Mireault, respective wives of Maxime Rivet and Dedace LaCasse, may hold the key to solving this little mystery.
