AG Announces Administrator for $19.5 Million EBP Fund in Greenpointby on
This week, Attorney General (AG) Eric Schneiderman and the NYC Department of Environmental Conservation announced that the North Brooklyn Development Corporation will join with the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation as administrators of the $19.5 million ExxonMobil settlement on Environmental Benefits Program (EBP). GWAPP is proud to take part in the community building process with several of our Board members joining the EBP Community Advisory Panel (CAP).
If you're unfamiliar with the EBP process, take a look at the AG's press release (below) or read through some of our previous posts on the subject.
NEW YORK — New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman and
Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Joseph Martens today
announced that the Greenpoint-based North Brooklyn Development Corporation
and National Fish and Wildlife Foundation will jointly administer the
Greenpoint Environmental Benefit Projects (EBPs) Program. The Program, with
a $19.5 million fund, was established with money paid by ExxonMobil in a
2011 settlement with New York State related to its massive oil spill in
Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
"Directing $19.5 million toward Greenpoint's priorities means this program
will help reverse the legacy of environmental abuse and neglect in this
vibrant neighborhood," said Attorney General Schneiderman. "This
partnership will ensure close and continuing collaboration with the
community and help achieve a cleaner, healthier future for Greenpoint."
"As the administrator of this substantial Environmental Benefit Project
fund, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and North Brooklyn Development
Corporation will work with the Greenpoint Community to choose and implement
the most valuable projects for the community," said DEC Commissioner
Martens. "DEC continues to work on the remediation directing ExxonMobil,
Chevron and BP to maintain, evaluate and optimize the efficiency of the
remediation systems and engaging and assisting interested developers of
parcels within the impacted areas."
The Greenpoint EBPs Program was created with money obtained in a 2011
settlement with ExxonMobil for a decades-old oil spill. The settlement
requires ExxonMobil to fully clean up the spill and pay $19.5 million to
fund environmental projects in the community.
The Program's General Administrator – the joint partnership – was selected
by the State through a process developed jointly with the Greenpoint
Community Advisory Panel (CAP), made up of representatives of local
environmental and civic organizations. CAP has been actively involved in
developing and implementing the Program since its inception in 2011.
The General Administrator will manage the solicitation, evaluation and
development of project proposals and oversee the implementation of projects
that are funded, in collaboration with CAP. The administrator will also
ensure continued engagement and collaboration with the Greenpoint community
in each phase of the Program.
The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, based in Washington, D.C., was
established in 1984 by the U.S. Congress as a private non-profit corporation
dedicated to supporting the conservation and management of the nation's
natural resources. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded over
11,000 grants to 3,700 organizations, leveraging over $635 million in public
funding into nearly $2 billion in environmental benefits. The Foundation
currently manages approximately $475 million in total funding and
administers over 50 EBPs nationwide, including the Attorney General's $7
million Bronx River Watershed Initiative.
The North Brooklyn Development Corporation was founded as a community
not-for-profit in 1979 by local community and business leaders with the
intention of improving commerce, housing, education and quality of life in
North Brooklyn. The Corporation has a track record of successful community
programs, including administering the New York City Department of Youth and
Community Development Out of School-Time Program and Youth Summer Camp at PS
110 in Greenpoint. The Corporation developed and manages six affordable
housing projects in Greenpoint and Williamsburg and continues to play a
central role in creating a community-based vision for the Greenpoint
waterfront. Consistent with the organization's grassroots orientation, the
Corporation's primary role in the partnership with the National Fish and
Wildlife Foundation will be in leading the Program's engagement and
collaboration with the local community.
Assemblyman Joseph R. Lentol, said, "I am glad that the joint venture
between the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the North Brooklyn
Development Corporation has been selected to administer the Greenpoint EBPs
Program. They will truly bring a two-pronged approach through the National
Fish and Wildlife Foundation's experience with environmental issues and the
North Brooklyn Development Corporations understanding of the local
landscape. Both organizations bring knowledgeable and fiscally sound
experience that will be necessary to ensure a fully transparent and
community-based endeavor. I look forward to the exciting environmental
projects that will be developing in our community as a result of this
New York City Councilmember Stephen Levin said, "Both the North Brooklyn
Development Corporation and the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation are
excellent organizations with long track records of project management and
community outreach. I am certain that their partnership will make for great
administration of the Greenpoint EBP Program. I am very pleased that this
process is continuing to move forward and that Greenpointers are one step
closer to deciding how the Exxon oil spill money will be spent."
Christine Holowacz, a Greenpoint resident and member of CAP, said, "The
State has acted as a true partner with the community on the Greenpoint EBP
Program. Rather than being told who the Program's administrator would be,
we collaborated on a process that ensured the community's criteria were
integral to their selection. I am very pleased with the selection of
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and North Brooklyn Development
Corporation, and their unique combination of national and local capacity,
experience and skills. It has been a pleasure to work with the offices of
Attorney General Schneiderman and DEC Commissioner Martens."
Dewey Thompson, co-chair of the Greenpoint Waterfront Association for Parks
& Planning (GWAPP) and a member of CAP, said, "I'm happy that the CAP and
the offices of Attorney General Schneiderman and DEC Commissioner Martens
took the necessary time and effort to co-operatively develop a process for
selecting a General Administrator for the Greenpoint EBP. As a result of the
process, I feel confident that we chose a partner whose experience,
resources, and local presence will help ensure the community gets the most
from the EBP funds."
Leah Archibald, Executive Director of the East Williamsburg Valley
Industrial Development Corporation and a member of CAP, said, "I am
delighted we will be moving into a new phase of the Greenpoint EBPs Program,
now that the partnership of North Brooklyn Development Corporation and
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation has selected as administrator. As the
community continues its collaboration with the Program administrator and the
State, I am certain that we will see a wide variety of quality projects that
improve our environment, and make Greenpoint a better place to live and
work. I would like to thank the Attorney General and DEC for following
through on their commitment to partnering with the community on this
The Greenpoint EBP Program will hold an Open House for the Greenpoint
community on February 11, between 5 and 8 pm, at the Polish & Slavic Center,
176 Java Street, Brooklyn. The event will provide an opportunity for
community members to meet the newly-selected partnership leaders, and
continue to provide input on the type of environmental improvement projects
they would like to see funded in Greenpoint. A preliminary list of
community project ideas can be found on the Program's website at:
The Greenpoint CAP members are: Leah Archibald (East Williamsburg Valley
Industrial Development Corporation); Kurt Cavanaugh (Open Space Alliance for
North Brooklyn); Katie Denny (Open Space Alliance Community Committee);
Michael Heimbinder (Newtown Creek Alliance); Laura Hoffman (Barge Park
Pals); Christine Holowacz (Newtown Creek Monitoring Committee); Ryan Kuonen
(Brooklyn Community Board 1); Phillip Musegaas (Riverkeeper); Stephanie
Thayer (Open Space Alliance for North Brooklyn); Dewey Thompson (Greenpoint
Waterfront Association for Parks and Planning); Laura Treciokas (Greenpoint
Waterfront Association for Parks and Planning); Kate Zidar (Newtown Creek
Alliance); and Manuel Zuniga (47 Java Garden Collective). In addition,
representatives of New York State Assembly member Joseph R. Lentol, New York
State Senator Martin M. Dilan and New York City Councilmember Stephen Levin
serve as non-voting members of CAP.
The Greenpoint EBP Program is being handled for Attorney General
Schneiderman by Environmental Policy Advisor Peter C. Washburn and for
Commissioner Martens by Michelle Moore, DEC Region 2. The State is being
assisted in working with the CAP and conducting outreach to the Greenpoint
community by Enviro-Sciences Engineering/ARC Engineering & Construction,

Welcome to my bi-weekly interview series. I'm pleased to introduce to you today an interview with dog enthusiast, thoughtful, and entertaining writer, Colin Chappell. He is often accompanied by his friendly and energetic dog Ray. In fact, Ray is one of Colin's favorite topics. You can visit Colin on his blog: A Dogs Life? (Stories of Me and Him).
1. Please Tell Us A Bit About Yourself?
My name is Colin Chappell. When I was born, my parents were expecting a girl so, when I arrived, they showed great initiative by thumbing through the BBC Radio Times looking for male names. If Colin Yearsley (a classical pianist) had a second name, I would have probably had a second name also; my older sister did. I am originally from Peterborough (U.K.), and now live in Oakville, Ontario, Canada (on the outskirts of Toronto).
I was born immediately after WWII and moved around the U.K. a lot when I was young because both my parents were in the theater. My Dad designed and painted scenery, while my Mum worked in the costumes area.
The introduction of television decimated the demand for theater and my parents had to make some major decisions. Growing up, my Mum held down multiple jobs and my Dad came home only on weekends. He was working approximately one-hundred-miles away from where we lived. My Dad eventually decided to build his own house. He learned how to do this successfully from library books, visiting construction sites, and asking a ton of questions.
2. What Kind of Affect Has Your Childhood Had On You?
I learned to make the best of any situation, knowing it could always be worse. I learned to not be afraid to step out of my comfort zone; to swallow my pride and ask questions as necessary.
I wanted to be a locomotive driver, but was told that I couldn't do this job by my Dad. I went to college to pursue a career as 'Master' of a cargo ship. I achieved a 2nd Class Honors Certificate and was welcomed into the Blue Star Line. I was ready to join 'Scottish Star' in Glasgow; however, I failed a medical exam which blocked my first chosen career path. This was my welcome to the world of adulthood and the realities of the world.
"I learned to make the best of any situation, knowing it could always be worse. I learned to not be afraid to step out of my comfort zone; to swallow my pride and ask questions as necessary." – Collin Chappell
3. When Did You Being Writing and Blogging?
I have always enjoyed writing short pieces and songs, but they were always private and I rarely shared my work. I cannot recall how I discovered blogging. But I had already been adopted by my dog Ray and wanted to share our experiences. It was also an opportunity to write publicly which was appealing to me. My blog was officially launched in October, 2014.
Later, my desire to write was extended into a book about my first eighteen-months (pre-blog) with Ray. He made a huge impact on me and was nothing like any dog that I would have chosen to adopt. But Ray had a special appeal and after a few months, I loved him!
4. What Does Writing and Blogging Mean to You? Why Do You Write?
Writing is rewarding for many reasons. It allows me to express myself, to be as creative as I can, and to have some tangible evidence of my creativity and expression. No doubt there are psychological benefits to writing also. Poetry is a natural extension of writing because of my earlier days song writing; however, my blog is also my vehicle to present my poetry to the world.
Blogging is the corner stone of my literary endeavors because not only can I now share with the world, but I can receive feedback. I have access to links to bloggers and writers with similar interests and concepts. As well, I am generally able to create a worldwide network of wonderful people. Over time I have developed friends around the world of all ages, cultures, religious beliefs (etc.) Now I have the pleasure of knowing many details about friends which go well beyond mere blogging.
" . . . [M]y desire to write was extended into a book about my first eighteen-months (pre-blog) with Ray. He made a huge impact on me and was nothing like any dog that I would have chosen to adopt. But Ray had a special appeal and after a few months, I loved him!" – Colin Chappell
5. Where Do You Find Your Inspiration and Motivation to Write? Is There A Time of Day You Most Enjoy Writing?
Some of my inspiration and motivation comes from the world! From various events occurring which cause me to think because I need to know where I stand. It is important for me, to understand myself. To do this involves constant internal interrogation, until I can come up with a feasible rationale which supports my views.
Ray is also hugely inspiring. He is unlike any dog I have ever known. Just by watching him (which I do a lot) I'm invariably provided with the basis for a blog post. I also inspire and motivate myself. I am retired so have the luxury of as much time as I wish to allocate to blogging and writing but I do have many other interests.
There isn't a particular time of day I enjoy writing more. Although, mornings and late evenings tend to be my most productive times. This is due more to convenience relative to other day to day activities. It's not that I feel more particularly creative during these times.
7. What Are Your Most Current Writing Projects?
I have two active projects at the moment:
My first priority is promoting my book: Who Said I was up for Adoption? All profits from this book go to the Humane Society whom rescued my beloved Ray. It's hard to make the whole world aware of a book without investing large sums of money to market it. Self-promoting is more financially feasible, but a difficult and time consuming job.
My second priority is publishing a book of my poems. It is tentatively titled: Tina and Other Stories and could be available Spring 2017. My poetry book is ready to be published but some financial decisions have to be made.
I am uncomfortable making these choices until I have a better grasp of how Ray's book is selling. Hopefully, I can make a decision within the next six to eight-weeks. I also have various other similar projects 'on the back burner,' but they will have to wait.
"Some of my inspiration and motivation comes from the world! From various events occurring which cause me to think because I need to know where I stand. It is important for me, to understand myself. To do this involves constant internal interrogation, until I can come up with a feasible rationale which supports my views." – Colin Chappell
8. Here is Colin's book: Who Said I was up for Adoption?
You can purchase Colin's book from Barnes & Noble, Amazon.com, Amazon.ca, Indigo, Google Play, Nook, and IBooks. Here's another link to Colin's page where you can find links to all book sellers noted: HERE.
9. Can You Briefly Describe Your Publishing Process? Will You Continue With the Same Process in the Future?
I researched a number of leads before publishing and just as life in general — you get what you pay for. The inexpensive route (a relative term) dictated I take responsibility for areas of publishing I knew nothing about.
If my book was planned for purely local distribution, I would have chosen that route, but that was not my goal. I wanted to market my book to the world because dog lovers exist in every country. Most significantly, this book is a fundraiser for Ray's Humane Society.
My compromise was to have a contract with FriesenPress. They provided their expertise in cover design, book layout, proofreading, overall suggestions, legalities, and ensuring Ray's book was available to all major book retailers. Regrets? I have none, although, what I learned during this publishing process will reduce the cost of publishing my poetry book!
10. Do You Have A Particular Writing Process?
Blogging – I write from heart to keyboard, and then read, re-read, re-read, fine tuning the piece. Sometimes I will leave a post for a few hours and then read it again to get a fresh perspective. I like to plan to create ahead of time, but more often I end up creating immediately prior to posting. I will not hit the 'Publish' button unless I am absolutely happy with my post.
Book Writing – I use exactly the same process, especially with poetry. Reading a poem can often draw attention to a bad line or difficult rhythm. My intended book of poetry is being reviewed, although, it was completed well over six-months ago. Who Said I was up for Adoption? was completed over a nine-month period, but took an additional eighteen-months to polish well enough to publish.
"If my book was planned for purely local distribution, I would have chosen that route, but that was not my goal. I wanted to market my book to the world because dog lovers exist in every country. Most significantly, this book is a fundraiser for Ray's Humane Society." – Colin Chappell
11. Do You Prefer Certain Areas or Genres of Reading and Writing?
I have little time for reading fiction — JRR Tolkein being the exception. It's not that I don't enjoy fiction, but more that I want to understand more about people and the real world. I recently read a beautifully emotional 'lost love' poem. I was devastated to learn later the poem was pure fiction! I need to relate to the writer and I feel I cannot do that with fiction.
12. Do You Have Any Helpful Advice for Other Writers?
Write… write… write.
Be honest to yourself.
Write… write… write.
Use blogging as much as you can because there is so much support out there in the blogging world for novice writers.
Write… write… write.
If you are pleased with what you write, then what other people think of it is secondary.
Write… write… write.
If you are not pleased with what you write, you need to spend time finding why you are unhappy with it. Once you have identified the problem, you can start working on the solution — Very logical!
"I recently read a beautifully emotional 'lost love' poem. I was devastated to learn later the poem was pure fiction! I need to relate to the writer and I feel I cannot do that with a fictional piece of writing." – Colin Chappell
13. Is There Anything Else You Would Like To Share Pertinent to Yourself or Writing?
I have volunteered in numerous diverse places over the years, and every position I held was valuable education for me. It was valuable both because of the work involved and in the learning it provided me.
I support a number of charitable organizations which help people regain their self-respect and of course, I support animal rescue organizations. Life has been and still is, a wonderful education; however, one must always participate in life to see any results.
14. Do You Have Any Favorite Blogs You Like to Follow? What Do You Like About Them?
I really do not have favorite blogs, but I do enjoy more philosophical blogs as they are thought provoking. Dog related blogs are interesting simply because I can relate to the topics presented. Any post I read that promotes a positive mental attitude maintains my attention. In a world which seems to celebrate negativity, we need as many positive vibes as possible!
15. Here is a Piece From Colin's Blog, One of His Favorite Poetic Verse Posts:
By Colin Choppell
Skeeta was a Siamese cat
Of distinction so we thought
She was rather unlike her breed
Friendly and quite large
I had known a few Siamese
But none had traits like these
She would ride in our car
On top of the front seats
Swaying whenever I braked
Forwards and backwards
Sideways on the turns
We would laugh until we ached
Then one day she clearly had changed
Her clean toilet habits had gone
Something was wrong we were sure
She used to be meticulously clean
A test revealed leukemia
With no treatment. No cure
After living with us
For only three months
Dearest Skeeta was put to sleep
But she left her mark
Indelibly on my heart
With memories that I would keep
She went to a better place
To join her kind and be without pain
Where cats are happy and free
To be as I'd want her to be
But Skeeta left a legacy behind
Unbeknownst at the time to me
Many years later when Ray moved in
He tested positive for heart worm
After only three months in our home
What were our options? What to do?
A very serious condition
And he could not fight it alone
We could return him, put him to sleep
Or do nothing which would eventually kill him
What would make the most sense?
For such a short and unhappy life
An expensive course of treatment
Could we justify the expense?
The treatment he may not survive
But shouldn't we at least try?
For perhaps survive he would
Shouldn't we give him a chance?
A chance for his life to fulfill?
To live out his life being loved?
Euthanizing would give him peace
Not 3 years old with an unknown past
His early life seemed hard and alone
Surely a dog has a right
To fight for his life
In a warm and caring home?
To return him to the shelter
Raised problems of another sort
Who would adopt a very sick Ray?
Who would want his vet bills?
Who would open their home?
Who would invite him to stay?
During these dilemmas I heard a voice
Reminding me of Skeeta long ago
With no hope of a cure in sight
How she was put down
Her future sealed by a disease
That cheated her out of her life
But this time was different
Ray did have a chance
If treatment started right away
The decision just had to be made
And then hope for the time
When once again he could play
Ray will never know
What influenced his future
Or how it came to be
That a cat, of all creatures,
May have saved his life
That was Skeeta's legacy.

Thanks to foodies, Yelp grew into an essential user-generated review platform, fueled by the critical taste buds of users' peers. Seven years after its inception, Yelp filed for an initial public offering in November in a bid to sell $100 million in stock. On Thursday, the company revealed in a regulatory filing that it is seeking to sell 7.15 million shares at $12 to $14, thereby valuing the company at $788 million, or $838.6 million on a higher end.
Yelp's stock will begin trading under the New York Stock Exchange, under the YELP ticker beginning March 2.
Despite its niche advertising model, Yelp has been criticized for its unsustainable business model, relying almost entirely on advertising. For instance, advertising accounted for 90.7 percent its revenue during the first nine months of 2011, but the company incurred an operating loss of $7.4 million on revenues in excess of $58.4 million. During the same nine months of 2010, the story was no different. With revenues of $32.5 million, Yelp incurred losses of $8.5 million for a total of $9.6 million that same year.
While its losses year after year have put doubt into the minds of potential investors, Yelp's one saving grace has been its steady revenue growth, at a rate of close to 80 percent year-over-year. The critic's mentality is not unfounded, as it's fueled by the inconsolable fact that for a company repeatedly incurring losses, Yelp's valuation appears to be wildly inflated in comparison to its listed competitors, Yahoo and Google. Yelp's lower-end valuation of $788 million values the company at 9.3 times its 2011 revenue. Google, on the other hand, was valued 5.2 times its revenue with a market capitalization of $23 billion in 2004. Yahoo's 1996 IPO had given the company a market valuation of $848 million, or 3.8 times its sales.
Still, Yelp's valuation falls short of the $1 billion to $2 billion valuation that was reported in November.
Yelp, prior to its IPO, had raised a total of $56 million in venture capital and angel funding. Residing chairman and PayPal co-founder, Max Levchin, owns a 13.5 percent stake in Yelp, and was the company's Series A investor. Jeremy Stoppleman, Yelp CEO and founder, currently holds 11.1 percent. Bessemer Venture partners own 22.1 percent, Elevation Partners own 22.4 percent, and Benchmark Capital own 16.2 percent.
The Yelp Foundation, Yelp's eponymous charity, had received 520,000 of its shares and will sell 50,000 of the foundation's shares.
According to the filing, at the helm of the offering will be Goldman Sachs Group as the bookrunning manager and underwriters for the offering. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Jeffries & Company, Inc. will act as joint bookrunning managers, while Allen & Company LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. will act as co-managers.

Living Consciously
LIVING CONSCIOUSLY: There are good reasons why people don't live consciously. At least two good reasons. First, we never learned the skills required to live consciously—that's what the Live Conscious community is about, learning and practicing those skills. Second, when we are awake we are more aware of the things that create existential anxiety: feeling alone, fearing death and facing uncertainty. One solution is to avoid these things by distracting ourselves. Another solution is to move beyond our fears by expanding our consciousness.

This a wonderful team of auto professionals who are always willing to explain options which is invaluable! Love Chris and Dan at the front desk and my trusty tech who helps keep my cars in running awesome!
Great interaction and communication overall. Gave us honest assessment with no BS. Will definitely use Tigard SUV again.

I love the mechanics and service specialists at TSUV&A. Always professional and courteous. I am always able to schedule a loaner car. I appreciate the updates and they keep me informed of the changes along the way. Chris and Daniel are awesome! They also beat out the price of a competitor's shop who couldn't provide me with a loaner when TSUV&A can. Thanks as always for the great service!
Chris and the other folks over at Tigard SUV do fantastic work. They're honest, reliable and they work really hard to get you back on the road in a safe vehicle. I really appreciate the work you guys did for me. I would highly recommend bring your vehicle to Tigard SUV. Worth it!
First visit to Tigard SUV auto shop and very impressed by quality of service and accommodations. I dropped in without an appointment and they took care of me right away. They were able to identify the issue right away and recommended necessary repairs as well as future recommended maintenance on my vehicle. Overall a 5 stars for my experience and timing of repairs. Now I believe I have found myself a neighborhood auto repair place I can count on.
Honest and dependable service, I have taken vehicles here for almost 10 years. Great service and they educate you about issues and keep you informed. A+
Arguably the best auto repair shop in the State of Oregon. Honesty and Integrity is the hallmark of Tigard Auto Repair. I trust this repair facility with my 2002 Mitsubishi Montero, 2010 Toyota Camry, and 2008 Ford Mustang and as soon as my 2015 Cadillac SRX comes off Factory warranty, they will be taking care of that auto too. Thank you.
Great service, did awesome work on my brakes and rotors. Didn't feel pressured at all to spend money on extra recommendations for the car, even for fixes that were semi-urgent. Super satisfied with the experience and will definitely return there for all future work on my car.
Tigard SUV came recommended and they went above and beyond. I appreciate them keeping me in the loop on every step of the process. I?ll be going back time and again for any work and I can?t wait to see the friendly people at Tigard SUV.
I've used Tigard SUV and auto repair for several years now and have always been treated well and fairly. They've stood by their service and worked with me to solve problems especially on my older 4wd geo tracker. They appreciate how much the rig means to me especially as a tow vehicle behind my RV. Because of this, I trusted them to put in a new engine, clutch, and other new parts and am so happy to have it back ready to go another 200,000 miles! Thanks!
As always, I get the best customer seevice from Daniel and Chris over at Tigard SUV & Auto. They're also so good & patient to answer all my questions. They always have a loaner car and everytime I leave my vehicle with them, it comes back to me better than when I left it with them. I truly appreciate thier advice and willingness to help me keep my vehicle in great running order! Thank you!!!
I was advised by Chris Dillon when I made the appointment to bring my SUV in early at 0730 on Friday (when the shop opens) so they would have the best chance to fix my AC issue (compressor failure) before the weekend. I'm glad I followed his advice because Tigard SUV delivered!
So helpful and friendly. I feel very confident they will get the job done great and amazing customer service. No pressure and give you all options. Very happy!!!
Courteous, professional, and knowledgeable staff provide quality service in timely manner for a fair price without overselling additional services. The free loaner car is an added PLUS and convenience that no other shop I've used in the past 30 years has offered. Thanks!!
Going on a road trip? I recently was at Tigard SUV for an oil change and to add new tires to my Honda SUV. On my way home, the ease in handling, smoothness of the ride and reduced noise level was really amazing. Thanks Tigard SUV for keeping us safe and ready for the next big adventure! :-)
Tigard SUV were honest and straight forward in their work and communication. This was my first experience with this shop and will definitely return.
Always great service. Prompt, friendly, to the point. I?ve been going here for years now and don?t plan on going anywhere else! Thanks guys!
The service is as professional as it can get. I was treated with respect and fully informed of how action would be taken in the service of my car. While clearly busy with several customers, I felt I too was being attended to with care and thoughtfulness. Excellent business.
My first time taking my Honda Civic in and I can only say the service was excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. I just found my permanent auto shop.
Efficient and, more importantly, honest. No pressure to do additional repairs. Great records of my vehicle...always up to date.

The first aviator sunglasses were made by Ray-Ban for fighter pilots in World War II. The pilots needed glasses that would eliminate sunlight and glare while also providing the best possible vision amid smoke and flying debris. Thus, Ray-Ban designed the iconic tear-drop frames to mimic the shape of pilot goggles and cover a maximum amount of real estate around each eye.
General Douglas MacArthur put aviators on the map in 1944 when he landed on the beach in the Philippines wearing a pair of the tear-drop shades. MacArthur's photo was featured in nearly every major publication at the time, giving aviator sunglasses for men an unprecedented amount of free press.
Aviators made a resurgence in popularity when Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer sported them in the 1986 action flick Top Gun. In fact, Tom and Val made the iconic frames so well-known that sales of Ray-Ban's aviator-style sunglasses rose 40% in the seven months following the film's release. Since then, aviator sunglasses have been a mainstay in celebrity style and fashion.
Though they've always retained their timeless appeal, aviators have undergone numerous modifications over their 80-year history. While the original aviators were made using metal frames, plastic aviator frames –- which were often much thicker than the thin wire frames of previous decades –- began making an appearance in the 1970s.
The celebrity rebirth of the 1980s brought about further innovations in the classic aviator-style sunglasses for men. The double- and single-bridge models that were popular in previous decades gave way to one-piece lens shields, as seen on Michael Jackson. A wider selection of lens colors and finishes also began to appear. And the mirrored lenses made famous in Top Gun surged in popularity, due to the sense of mystery created by completely blocking the eyes from view.
Other aviator trends over the years have included rimless and semi-rimless profiles as well as a move away from the classic metallic colors to brighter, bolder hues, even black frames. Recently, these flashy colors and patterns have even made their way to the lenses of aviator sunglasses for men.
The 1970s brought color and femininity to aviators. Until then, aviators had primarily been considered a men's style. The original aviator sunglasses for women still included the classic tear-drop shape but incorporated more feminine elements, such as rhinestone details and softer lens colors like gradient browns and pinks. Though initially worn by women whose style was casual cool, once they started showing up on runways and red carpets, aviator sunglasses for women took on a chic, high-fashion appeal as well.
Though the aviator sunglass design was invented by Ray-Ban, many other high-end sunglass companies have produced their own versions of Aviator sunglasses, including Maui Jim, Serengeti, Persol, and Polo. Additionally, many top clothing designers, like Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, and Burberry, have also developed their own line of aviator-style sunglasses.
Aviators have been a fashion staple for many generations now. So if you're considering purchasing your own pair, you can feel confident that you shades will stay in style for decades to come.

On Nov. 3, the moon will once again pass between the Earth and the sun, partially blocking out our life-giving star and putting on a spectacular celestial show for people who are in the right place to see it.
And this year, the best place to see the eclipse is in Africa.
"In this very narrow path across Africa there will be a total eclipse, when the moon covers the sun completely, darkness descends and the stars come out," said Mike Simmons, founder and president of a group called Astronomers Without Borders. "But in every other place of Africa beyond that narrow band of totality, everyone will see a partial eclipse."
To help children across the continent watch the eclipse safely, Simmons and other members of Astronomers Without Borders began a campaign to get eclipse glasses on the faces of as many African kids as possible.
(As most of us learned in elementary school, it is dangerous to look directly at the sun without the aid of a solar filter to block the sun's harmful rays.)
It costs $1 to send one pair of those cardboard framed glasses to Africa, and donations have been collected through the Astronomers Without Borders website. The group's goal is to raise enough money to send 41,800 pairs of glasses to the continent, but so far, it has collected only enough money to send about 10,000 pairs.
The glasses will be transported by a network of astronomers headed to Africa to witness the eclipse and distributed by the South Africa-based International Astronomical Union's office of Astronomy for Development.
Astronomers Without Borders was founded in 2007 with the mission of connecting people around the world through astronomy. So far, most of the group's work has focused on sharing information digitally, and in helping amateur astronomers connect with one another. But Simmons said he hoped to do more projects like this one.
"Astronomy is a gateway science," he said. "It is more accessible than most sciences because you have the laboratory overhead."

Ibanez in Town
The new left fielder arrived in town today.
Raul Ibanez was a hot free agent item this off-season with the Angels, Cubs, Mets and Braves in pursuit. ESPN.com reported he sent signals through friends that the Phillies were his first choice.
Last Friday, Ruben Amaro Jr. and his staff agreed to terms with the lefty hitter. A physical exam this morning finalized the deal.
For the last four seasons, Raul averaged .288, 90 runs, 176.5 hits, 35.7 doubles, 24.2 homers and 106.7 RBI. And, he's durable, playing in 632 of the Mariners' last 648 games.
Media and bloggers are quick to point out the Phillies are now over-loaded with left-handed bats. Well, there are three: Raul, Chase and Ryan. Shane and J-Roll are switch-hitters. Last time I looked, the Mets had Schneider, Delgado, Church and three-to-four switch-hitters. So much for over-load.
Plus, the majority of starting pitchers are right-handers. In our division right now, the Nationals have the most lefty starters, three.
Lee Elia has spent 47 of his 71 years in the game of professional baseball. He's seen Raul from his rookie days through last season when Elia served as a special assistant to the Seattle manager. Elia's scouting report:
"Quiet guy, but a real gamer and a true professional. Made himself into a top-of-the-line ballplayer. Very accomplished hitter, tremendous worker, so much so that sometimes you need to back him off. He has power and hit a lot of balls at Safeco Field that would have been out of many other parks.
"Lefties? He hits them well. A Very smart defensive player with an accurate arm, not a cannon, but accurate. You won't have to lift him for defense late in the game.
"Simply, he was the heart and soul of our club," concluded Elia.
Can't wait for PA announcer Dan Baker to bark, "Now batting, # 29, left-fielder Raul (rah-OOL) Ibanez (ee-BAHN-yez)."

Harry will have a lot of fun with that name as well.

Examining End-of-Period Bookkeeping Procedures
Even if all transactions during the year (or other business period) have been recorded correctly, the business's accounts still aren't quite ready for preparing the financial statements. Additional procedures are necessary at the end of the period to bring the accounts up to snuff for preparing financial statements for the period. Two main things have to be done at the end of the period:
Record normal, routine adjusting entries: You may not have associated certain expenses and income with a specific transaction, and, therefore, you didn't record those expenses and income. Well, record them now! For example, depreciation expense isn't a transaction as such and therefore isn't included in the flow of transactions recorded in the day-to-day bookkeeping process.
You need to make these kinds of adjustments to have correct balances for determining profit for the period, making the revenue, income, expense, and loss accounts up-to-date and correct for the year.
Check for developments that may affect the accuracy of your accounts: For example, the company may have discontinued a product line. You may have removed the remaining inventory of these products from the asset account, with a corresponding loss recorded in the period. Layoffs and severance packages are another example of what you need to look for before preparing reports.
Lest you think of accounting as dry, dull drudgery, understand that end-of-period accounting procedures can stir up controversy of the heated-debate variety. These procedures require that the accountant make decisions and judgment calls that upper management may not agree with. For example, the accountant may suggest recording major losses that would put a big dent in profit for the year or cause the business to report a loss. The outside CPA auditor (assuming that the business has an independent audit of its financial statements) often gets in the middle of the argument. These kinds of debates are precisely why business managers need to know some accounting: to hold up their end of the argument and participate in the great sport of yelling and name-calling — strictly on a professional basis, of course.

Today's NaPoWriMo prompt is poem type called an elegy – a poem that mourns or honors someone dead or something gone by. Center the elegy on an unusual fact about the person or thing being mourned. " An elegy generally combines three stages of loss: first there is grief, then praise of the dead one, and finally consolation." Please see Literary Devices for more information.
I've paired this prompt with The A to Z Challenge quote, having the author/quoter's name begin with the letter C.
"We are all the pieces of what we remember. We hold in ourselves the hopes and fears of those who love us. As long as there is love and memory, there is no true loss." ― Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire
Here we gather, today it finally hit —
Me, you won't be coming back; such grit —
You displayed, at the crux, as death grew near.
There was no "going gently" for you dear.
I always admired that you were strong,
At the finish you groaned your last song.
The pain was so great, it hurt us to see,
A candle flame who flared, flickering free.
Death was not easy, nor was your young life.
But you always shouldered through the strife.
A kind, giving person — philanthropist,
With death, you became a minimalist.
Objects hold memories, the Stone's song we know —
well: "You Can't Take It With You When You Go."
As we remember, we wonder why —
Three-years ago you left, disappeared wide —
Across the world, sending postcards to —
Us all, as you adventured across through —
Every country you could see with no —
Face Time, Skype; we were scared you wouldn't come —
Back; but you knew how sick you had become.
That's why you left, returned, with all of your —
Stories to share as you withered, poorly —
Weak and fragile, all your living used up.
No matter we were so afraid it's just —
We didn't understand your reasons 'til —
You said, "I'm dying fast, I have no more will —
to live, my time is drawing near, I see —
God's blessed glory shining, in front of me."
We forgive you for leaving twice; we know —
Your Heavenly home, will now shelter you.
It's hard how it ended, but we'll see you —
Soon — in the peace, Heaven granted for you.

Watch Two Cops Rock Out Katy Perry's 'Dark Horse' [VIDEO]by Maggie Malach | PopCrush
Ever wonder what goes on inside of a patrol car? Apparently, a lot of jamming to pop stars like Katy Perry!
Two cops who work for the Rosenberg Police Department in Texas recently filmed themselves rocking out to Katy's Juicy J collaboration, 'Dark Horse.' The uniformed officers totally nail the lip syncing — and even give off a little of the singer's signature attitude!
While the video is hilarious, the offices admit there's a strategy behind the cover song.
"We actually want to be able to show people that we're just people, just like everybody else," Officer Aerial Ronell told local news outlet KPRC.
"The message is that we're not the enemy, we're the friends of the community," added Officer Ranell Roy.
Seeing as the video has already been shared on Facebook more than 95,000 times, we'd say they're off to a solid start! Watch the cops' unexpectedly awesome lip syncing cover of 'Dark Horse' in the video above!

For MilliporeSigma, bioethical issues arise with respect to stem cell research. When clear statutory and regulatory requirements are lacking, Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany collaborates closely with experts to develop appropriate guidelines. The requirements described in "Stem Cells and Human Cloning Principle" enable Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany to conduct stem cell research within a strictly defined framework, and thus, prevent us from violating applicable laws and regulations while enabling us to work within the framework of established ethical principles.

Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany promotes the 3R principles of animal welfare (reduction, refinement and replacement). It develops and uses methods and techniques to further replace animal testing, to reduce the required number of animals, and to minimize the stress placed on them before, during and after testing. For MilliporeSigma, the EU chemicals regulation REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) that took effect in 2007 specifies that all substances manufactured in or imported to the EU must be registered and evaluated in accordance with certain requirements in order to assess their potential hazards. Depending on the amount of chemicals in question, this also includes animal testing. We minimize the number of animal tests by working with other manufacturers, importers and users in the Substance Information Exchange Forum (SIEF) in order to share data. This allows us to avoid animal testing that is not absolutely necessary for consumer protection, or to avoid repeating animal tests that have already been conducted. For more information, please see the animal testing section of the Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany Corporate Responsibility Report.
MilliporeSigma has put programs in place to ensure compliance with the European Union (EU) directive on Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and its subset directive on the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic equipment.

Let me mention for a second, that there cannot be an infinite progression of things.
@ Real Life James Bond - Why not?
Okay, thanks.
I don't know a lot about these kinds of things. All I know is when a theist tells me God always was I tell them they perceive of God as a thing so why can't I perceive of some other thing that always was instead of a God? For example, whatever it was that existed before the big bang could have been a substance (besides a God) that always existed. Why should their perception be any more valid than mine?
I argue that it could have been a quantum fluctuation (which is just two particles that come from nothing and collide to destroy each other).
@ Real Life James Bond - How can something come from nothing or did you just mean the particles came from something very simple that is practically nothing?
I have a Youtube clip of Richard Dawkins talking about the universe coming from nothing and he corrects himself and says something like "well it's not actually nothing. It's something very simple". That's why I asked you the question like I did. I remembered him saying that. If you want me to give you the link and place where he says it, I can pretty easily do that.

SARATOGA SPRINGS -- Not many people can say they've penned a novel in three days. However, there's only one person on the planet who can claim that and one other jaw-dropping feat: adapting his 72-hour novel into a screenplay that stars Billy Crystal and a slew of other heavy-hitters. And here's the best part: the writer in question is a Saratoga Springs native who still lives in the city and is a genuinely nice guy. Just a few weeks ago, Chris Millis attended the Hollywood premiere of "Small Apartments," where Crystal, who'd never done an independent film before, personally congratulated Millis and told him how proud he was of the film. These days, the 1990 graduate of Saratoga Springs High School may feel as euphoric as a lottery winner, but with one significant difference -- he's earned every ounce of his winnings. After studying graphic arts at Buffalo State, Millis planned to make a living as a cartoonist. That plan was bolstered by a collaboration with "Close to Home" creator John McPherson that began in 1995. "I worked with John for a while, and also illustrated children's books. I thought it was my thing," he said. "But then I won the 23rd annual International Three-Day Writing Contest in 2000. You write a novel in three days and the grand prize is publication of the novel, plus an advance with royalties." Not long after winning the competition, Millis attended a cartoon syndicate convention with McPherson where one of the participants took an interest in Millis' novel and offered to pitch it to some of his Hollywood connections. The rest is silver-screen history. The film was first unveiled last year at the South by Southwest film festival in Austin, Texas, where it was named an official selection and declared "... a singularly weird film held together by an inimitable performance from Matt Lucas." Friday night, it will premiere locally at Saratoga Music Hall to a full house. "Tickets to Friday's screening sold out weeks ago," Millis said. "So we had to organize an emergency second-night screening at Skidmore College." For tickets, go towww.chrismillis.com
. The independent film stars Billy Crystal, James Caan, Johnny Knoxville, Rosie Perez, "Bridesmaids" alums Matt Lucas and Rebel Wilson, Juno Temple, James Marsden, Amanda Plummer and Dolph Lundgren. "Small Apartments" was directed by Jonas Akerlund, an acclaimed Grammy-winning director most noted for his collaborations with Madonna. Millis' dark comedy centers on a lonely misfit named Franklin Franklin (Lucas) who has killed his landlord and is trying to get away with it. He's left to navigate an eclectic maze of quirky neighbors, an alcoholic fire investigator (Crystal) and the strange fingernail collections of his insane brother, Bernard (James Marsden). Franklin also harbors a deep-seeded belief that if he can just escape to the magical land of Switzerland, everything will be all right. "You don't know how or why Franklin kills his landlord, or if you should be rooting for or against him," Millis said. "As I wrote the story (during the three-day contest period), I had no idea how it would move forward, let alone end. I'd deliberately write myself into a corner and then figure out a way out of it. I decided that if I could surprise myself, I could surprise the reader as well." When "Small Apartments" signed on with Sony Pictures, Millis pitched himself as screenwriter and got the go-ahead from the studio. "That hardly ever happens for a writer, but this time it worked out," he said. "I met the cast before filming and was on the set all day everyday for the shoot. Getting to work with Jonas was amazing." On the eve of his film's hometown premiere, Millis also noted that his second novel, "God and California," will be released this spring. And he has more plans to showcase "Small Apartments" to area audiences. "I would love to do something with Spectrum 8 Theatres in Albany, and the Bow Tie theater when they open here in town," Millis said. "It would be great to have a screening with some of the stars during track season."

The situation in Greece continues to dominate the markets and news flow. The recent election of the anti-austerity Syriza party has led to uncertainty as to whether Greece will leave the single currency. Alexis Tsipras the new PM, is locked in crucial talks to negotiate funds to ensure that the country doesn't default on its commitments. With only two weeks of leadership, the moves by Tsipras are radical, and could have catastrophic repercussions. An exit from the Eurozone would…Continue Reading →
The Greek people elected a new government to power on the 25th January; Syriza are an anti-austerity party led by Alexis Tsipras.

Greece's financial stability and future EU membership is in question, as Tsipras attempts to negotiate alternatives,…Continue Reading →

Concerns from analysts that the Chinese growth levels fuelled by credit were unsustainable have been noted continuou…Continue Reading →

He was quoted as saying to theDaily Post"We are in no rush to raise rates, the recovery is taking hold nicely, the last thing we want to do is knock the stuffing out of that."Comments like this do confuse the market, with the current consensus for a Q1/2 2015.

The central bank announced a slightly larger bond-buying programme of €60 billion per month into 2016.

Today is a US public holiday (Martin Luther King Day), with minimal economic announcement and certain US markets closed, trading volumes and liquidity are lower. Last week was a watershed moment for modern foreign exchange trading. The surprise move by the Swiss National Bank (SNB) to remove the EURCHF currency floor (1.20) shocked markets.

The Swiss National Bank shocked traders on Thursday by removing the EURCHF exchange rate floor. The unexpected move led to exceptional moves in the currency markets. The artificial exchange cap of 1.20 EURCHF has been in place since 6 September 2011. The volatility caused drastic moves, with minimal liquidity, as it seems that the central bank hadn't realised the repercussions of their actions. The cap had been put in place to stem the strengthening of the Swiss Franc from safe h…Continue Reading →

ABC's LOST has, for me, probably been the most suspenseful, exciting, and entertaining television show of the last decade. Geeks will probably be talking about LOST for years after the show goes off the air, theorizing and speculating to their hearts content.
