Any Jeremiah Red Hints?
I just moved to Idaho and now I can't drink my favorite beer cause BJ's isn't out here. They have a grain list on the website and I am planning to try to see if I can clone it. I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried yet?

Abstract: From the Parthenon to Wall Street: Greece, Rome, and the Classically Inspired Architecture of the USA
Classical architecture was a major influence on the urban genesis of New York City, Washington DC and other American cities. This talk considers several ancient building types, such as Greek temples and Roman baths, and looks at how American patrons and architects used these central forms of Greek and Roman architecture in the construction of major public buildings in New York City and other American cities. Major nineteenth- and twentieth-century buildings, such as Grand Central Station, the old Penn Station, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the New York Stock Exchange, all borrow heavily from the repertoire of classical architecture.
These buildings deployed Greek and Roman architectural forms not only because of their beauty and grandeur, but also because of their cultural resonance and the flexibility of space that such building types afforded the architect. Bath buildings are an excellent example of how to create vast interior spaces and how to move large numbers of people in and out of these spaces effectively; the architects of train stations faced the same problems, as did those constructing museums and other public venues. By surveying the monuments mentioned above, as well as buildings in other Americans cities, such as Washington DC, San Francisco, and St. Louis, it is clear that classical architecture and culture played an important part in shaping the urban form and architectural history of the United States.

Russian Orthodox missionaries arrived in the 1840s. The melding of Orthodox Christianity and native practices resulted in the brightly-colored spirit houses which can be seen at the Eklutna Cemetery, in use since 1650 and now a historical park. The cemetery is probably the most photographed graveyard in Alaska, overshadowing other features of the village.

A total of 10 real properties were declared "surplus property" by the Moberly City Council during Monday night's (Aug. 19) regular meeting. They include:
• 608 W. Rollins
• 818 W. Rollins
• 1310 Scott Ave.
• 516 Garfield
• 900 Franklin St.
• 706 W. Coates
• 708 W. Coates
• 809 Concannon
• 124 Collins
• and 410 N. Fifth.
"You have lots where houses have gotten torn down," Moberly Community Development Director Tom Sanders explained on Friday morning (Aug. 23), of why real properties might have to be declared surplus. "Somebody will have an old house that is falling in, and there is an old person who cannot do anything with it anymore, so they hand it over to us."
Sanders also noted that sometimes, real properties with large tax bills against them that go through county sales several times without bid will eventually have to be declared surplus.
"Nobody wants to buy a $500 property with thousands of dollars in tax bills on them," he said.
At Monday night's meeting, Moberly City Manager Andy Morris noted that the North East Community Action Corporation (NECAC) was looking into acquiring some of the properties.
"They have picked out five of the lots," Sanders said Friday. "They are trying to apply for some grant money through HUD to try and get some houses constructed on these lots."
He said that at that point, "the city will have no more involvement" with the properties.
"That's our real goal — to get [the properties] back into service," Sanders said. "If we get a house back on it, its good for the neighborhood and it is bringing in some tax dollars for the city."

#1 Woman photographed riding a manatee in Florida is arrested11-25-2012, 09:00 PM
A St. Petersburg, Fla., woman was arrested on a misdemeanor warrant Saturday after being photographed two months ago riding a manatee.
Florida's Manatee Sanctuary Act protects the endangered sea mammal and says in part, It is unlawful for any person at any time, by any means, or in any manner intentionally or negligently to annoy, molest, harass, or disturb or attempt to molest, harass, or disturb any manatee.
Ana Gloria Garcia Gutierrez, 53, was taken into custody without incident at a Sears department store where she works, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.
The incident first came to the public's attention when Sheriff Bob Gualtieri held a news conference on Oct. 2 and asked for help in identifying the woman photographed riding the manatee at nearby Fort De Soto Park in late September.
Gutierrez has admitted touching the endangered sea mammal, the sheriff's office said. She told deputies that she was new to the area at the time and didn't know it was illegal to touch a manatee. The manatee was not hurt.
The maximum penalty is a $500 fine and six months in jail. Gutierrez was released on $1,500 bail, the Associated Press reported.
Oh the hugemanatee!Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil;
Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness;
Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes
And clever in their own sight! Isaiah 5:20-21 NASB
The problem with this is the number of swim with the manatee programs here. I can see how it can be confusing.
At the marine mammal facility where we volunteer, we often get into discussions with tourists about not touching manatees or dolphins that they might encounter in the wild. But then they talk about paying to do the swim with the manatees or dolphin programs.
Somehow they need to draw the line and either stop those programs or stop prosecuting people. Personally, I think they should leave those poor animals alone. There was a dolphin named Beggar who died here recently. When they necropsied him, they found a number of obsturctions in his intestines and numerous boat strike marks.
There's a lovely little park/beach/picnic spot on North Lido Beach. A few weeks ago SR and I were eating a picnic lunch there. A raccoon came within a few feet to beg. We talked to a ranger and said the animals are getting to be a nuisance, taught by people feeding them.
A general rule is to leave wild animals alone, don't feed them, touch them. It could contribute to their becoming nuisance animals and being relocated or killed.
" To the world you are just one more person, but to a rescued pet, you are the world."
"A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!"
When I lived in Florida we had pet squirrels. They'd climb right up your legs to get food. Dolphins were no strangers to us either. Everytime we took a boat out on Choctawhatchee Bay, we'd run into a bunch of them. They'd come up and check us out. Never let us touch them though.
Florida certainly had more "tame" wild animals than anywhere else I've lived.In most sports, cold-cocking an opposing player repeatedly in the face with a series of gigantic Slovakian uppercuts would get you a multi-game suspension without pay.
In hockey, it means you have to sit in the penalty box for five minutes.

Ah yes, I recall sharks circling our boat when I belonged to the Boat club a couple of years ago, fun times...I never had the urge to ride one, however.

I was born and lived in Oahu, Hawaii until I was 5, and playing in the ocean off the North Shore hooked me for life. I'm addicted to the ocean and adrenaline rushes, so combining them both as a big wave surfer is my dream job.
After graduating high school last year, trying to surf the biggest and heaviest waves I can find is now my main priority. I'm really looking forward to pushing my limits and traveling the world, doing what I love in the next few years.
Team O'Neill rider Russell Bierke won the heaviest surf contest in years when he took top spot at Red Bull's Cape Fear. We caught up with him the morning after when the adrenalin spike had calmed down a bit…
Firstly mate, congratulations on the result and making it back onto dry land/rock alive! Thanks! Pretty happy to come out of it unscathed!
So what's it like to compete in waves like that … did you have a strategy going into it, or were you just trying to stay in one piece? It's strange, it didn't really feel like a competition. I was just stoked to see everyone get amazing waves. I guess my strategy was to not study it, haha, the more I watched it from shore the scarier and harder it looked to ride so I basically just hung up the back of the event before my heat and tried to relax.
Talk us through what it's like to get whipped into one of those bigger set waves at Cape Fear, with the rocks and crowd right in front of you? As soon as I saw a set I'd instantly forget about the crowd watching and the fact I was in a heat, it just felt like any day at a crazy slab. The cliff being so close and the backwash was definitely the scariest part, I really didn't want to end up getting stuck against the cliff. Dropping down it was all about picking the right line between ledges and always keeping an eye out for backwash coming off the cliff.
How are you feeling the morning after? You've just won what some are calling the world's most dangerous/heaviest surf event? I feel very beat up and sore! It's still sinking in that I actually just did that. I keep thinking that I'm stuck in a dream.
Your mate Photographer Leroy Bellet mentioned there was a chance you guys were going to try to double-tow out there, are you guys still keen after all that? I think Leroy's glad he didn't try it this swell! Might've been the last anyone saw of him. I think on a smaller and more perfect day out there we could definitely pull it off.
So what's next for Russell Bierke? Tell us about your year so far, and what you've got planned for the rest. This year has been amazing, I finished high school at the end of last year and went straight to Hawaii for a few months. I started this year off surfing Pipe, Jaws and a bunch of other waves over there then came back to non-stop swell in Australia. I've done a trip to Shipsterns, two to South Australia, one to West Australia and been chasing waves up and down the East Coast since I got back from Hawaii. I'm hoping to chase some big swells around the world and would love to get a wildcard into a Big Wave Tour event.
And finally, can you fill us in on Kirk, your Dad's, big wave history, the boards, and the Hawaiian connection, is that where your middle name Kanoa comes from? My dad grew up surfing and shaping in California, he would go to Puerto Escondido in Mexico for months at a time and everyone kept telling him he should go to Hawaii. He finally planned to go there for a couple months and ended up spending nearly twenty years living on the North Shore shaping and surfing big waves. I was born in Hawaii and lived there until I was five before moving to Australia. Kanoa is Hawaiian for 'free'.

Even though I use Photoshop CS 6 nearly constantly, I'm not a huge fan of Adobe Photoshop Touch. I think they made a lot of bad decisions, from not building a truly native iOS app, to creating an interface that's almost opaque. However, they're Adobe, this is Photoshop, and I'm just an overly opinionated blogger, so for those of you who are all up in the Touch, here's some good news:
Adobe has made some optimizations to better support the iPad mini (likely fixing tap target sizes, though it doesn't say specifically), and adding support for the new generation of pressure sensitive stylus pens like the Pogo Connect, Jot Touch, and JaJa. There are two new effects, Lens Flare and Stamp Pattern (and they helpfully tell you Lens Flare is under the "&" menu, once again proving no menu should ever be labeled "&").
Facebook and Twitter support has been baked in, and access to the last 5 colors is now just a tap away.

New Jersey governor not alone when it comes to bariatric treatment
Surgery can help the obese who have trouble shedding pounds
A slightly leaner New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie appeared at a press conference recently to announce that he had undergone bariatric surgery to control his weight.
Like increasing numbers of Americans, both young and old, his obesity was beginning to manifest not only in being a "plus" size, but also in other health problems. Christie told reporters that his family was key to his decision to have the surgery. On the verge of turning 50, he wants to have an active second part of his life with his wife and children.
Being active was a big motivator for Ryan Beaty to undergo bariatric surgery, as well. He was 29 years old, weighed 540 pounds and wanted to start a church in Houston, but a colleague who had ministry experience had a frank conversation with him about it. "He told me that he was extremely worried about me because, in his opinion, at the weight I was, he thought the church planting would literally kill me," Beaty says. "That was the final wake-up call for me."
So, taking out loans and with help from his parents, he had bariatric surgery in June 2010 and within a year and a half, Beaty had lost 150 pounds. His blood pressure and cholesterol improved, and he no longer had bronchitis on a regular basis.
Beaty and Christie are typical, in many ways, of people who seek out bariatric surgery to lose weight. "The typical patient is someone middle aged who's been overweight their entire life," says Dr. Vadim Sherman, director of bariatric and metabolic surgery at The Methodist Hospital. "They are now developing diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, they've tried a number of diets in the past, had some success but not long term. They are getting worse, and medications are not helping them. The obesity is causing the problem, and they get that, and want an effective and durable way to treat it."
The most common weight-loss surgeries are lap band, sleeve and bypass - or some combination of these. With lap band and sleeve techniques, the idea is to restrict the intake of food - and reduce calories - by making the stomach smaller. Bypass surgeries reroute the small intestine so that the food bypasses or skips a section of it as it's being digested. Food spends less time in the intestine, thus, fewer calories are absorbed.
Christie had a lap-band procedure and is visibly smaller than he was a few months ago before the surgery. His public announcement of the surgery has spurred others to inquire about having similar procedures. "Patients that inquire about surgery already have a great amount of knowledge about the procedures and have done extensive independent research," Sherman says. "The patients that we have seen recently did mention Christie's surgery, but were a little confused as to why he chose the lap band."
Sherman says he believes bypass or sleeve procedures are more effective. The band, however, has fewer short-term complications but has higher incidences of complications in the long term.
Bariatric surgery has existed for half a century, but its prevalence has increased in the past decade or so. "The primary factor is how effective it is," Sherman says. "It's effective in losing weight, keeping it off and resolving those obesity-related diseases like diabetes, reflux and high cholesterol." The procedures also are safer now than in the past.
Even patients who have had bariatric surgeries, however, can regain lost weight, or not lose as much as they need to lose in order to restore health. "Different failure rates come with different procedures," says Dr. Erik B. Wilson, medical director of bariatric surgery at Memorial Hermann in the Texas Medical Center and chief of elective general surgery for the University of Texas Health Science Center. "Lap bands have the highest failure rate, then sleeves, then bypass procedures. The procedure fails, something needs to be fixed, or the patient is overeating, not complying with the medications, not following up with appointments to see if the band has slipped or something else has malfunctioned."
Several factors drive obesity, however, and surgery is only one of several key components in weight-management programs that treat obesity. Psychological counseling deals with patients' tendencies to use food as a coping method, to relieve stress or deal with difficulties in life. Also, patients receive education on food choices and using the surgery as a tool for maximum results. "The type of food we eat now in society makes us hungry, it dissolves quickly and spikes insulin, spikes fat production, and doesn't stay in our gut long enough to trigger the satiety buttons in the brain," says Wilson. "This is the fundamental problem with the obesity epidemic - we have to change our food."
Beaty is ready to take his health and weight loss to the next level. He has plateaued after losing 150 pounds and is debating whether to have another surgery. He experienced few, if any, complications from the surgery, but would prefer to lose the rest of his weight through diet and exercise.
But, he's glad he had the first surgery; losing the weight has allowed him to fulfill his dream of starting a church. And if Christie continues to lose weight, there's no telling what he might do after his gubernatorial stint in New Jersey.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's decision to have lap-band surgery helped generate interest in various weight-loss procedures.

Lake's "deadbeats" owe $500,000
It was a bit of unfortunate timing. The same week that Roy Mathers got a list of delinquent lot owners who owe a whopping $500,000 to the Lake Monticello Owners' Association, he also received the neighborhood's weekly flyer which said the Lake's board of directors wanted to raise residents' dues three percent.
"I said, 'There's something wrong with that,'" recounts Mathers.
Lake Monticello in Fluvanna County is a 4,611-lot gated community with a golf course, beaches, swimming pool, and tennis courts. To maintain these amenities, each Lake Monticello lot owner must pay $340 a year in dues.
The Lake Monticello News lists 114 delinquent lot owners— Mathers suggests the intention of the list was to embarrass people into paying. He says he doesn't understand how the delinquencies could have ballooned to a half million dollars, and speculates that some people have ducked paying for 20 or 30 years.
"If someone owes $14,000, that's insanity," Mathers says. "Take 'em to court or slap liens on the property. It's just a bunch of deadbeats."
In fact, the Association's board of directors is prepared to put liens on property, turn off bar codes that allow gate access, and revoke the right to use the lake's amenities until the dues are paid. And Association vice president/secretary, Scott Marshall, says the past due amounts include 18 percent annual interest. But he disagrees that the delinquents are deadbeats.
"People were delinquent because their lives changed in the '90s," he says. "I don't think they just said, 'We're not going to pay our dues.' People got divorced or lost their jobs."
Indeed, one of those listed is former Working Weekly publisher Gail Bentley, who suffered financial reversals when that publication went into bankruptcy and folded.
Since the list was published, Marshall says, people have been paying up, including the largest debtor, Acres Development LLC, which paid $49,000 of the $60,000 the Association said it owed.
"We're current with our dues, except for three lots closing the end of this month," says Keith Smith, Acres Development manager. As for why Acres Development owed so much, Smith says, "One of the problems we had was that it took forever for them to give an accounting of what we owed. I don't know where the $60,000 came from."
Mathers, too, wonders how accurate the list is, and how hard previous boards tried to collect past due accounts.
This isn't the first time a board has had to file liens to get delinquent dues, according to Marshall. "All boards have gone through the same thing trying to collect money," he says.
Mathers thinks collecting even 25 percent of the past due accounts would more than cover the proposed three percent increase in dues. And he intends to vote no when Lake Monticello residents vote on the dues increase on June 29.
However, Marshall thinks the increase is likely to pass, based upon a residents' survey. "It's a little over 10 bucks per lot," he says.
"Where else," asks Mathers, "can you live in a gated community with police, restaurants, golf course, five beaches, pool, and a clubhouse that's absolutely gorgeous for $340 a year?"

OkCupid played a major role in the successful effort to bring down Mozilla CEO Brendan Eich.
On March 31 the company showed a message to all visitors using Mozilla's Firefox browser. The message stated: "Mozilla's new CEO, Brendan Eich, is an opponent of equal rights for gay couples. We would therefore prefer that our users not use Mozilla software to access OkCupid."
As we all know, Eich's opposition to equal rights for gay couples stemmed from his $1,000 donation to support Proposition 8 in 2008. There are no other allegations that he ever showed any other discrimination against gays or anyone else.
Most people will argue (including me) that OkCupid is permitted to express opinions and take actions like this under its first amendment rights as a corporation.
But what was OKCupid's motivation? And how does OkCupid's co-founder Sam Yagan fit into this?
I believe that it was a PR…

In yesterday's Washington Post, T.W. Farnam apparently thought it would be illuminating to compare grassroots donors to addicts. The article is the other half of a classic D.C. lose-lose attack on the grassroots: if you don't give, you're a feckless mass who can't be trusted to come through for candidates, and if you do give you're rubes at mercy of canny political operatives.
Unconsidered in the article is the apparently outlandish possibility that grassroots donors are making their own decisions about who to support–that they aren't just money pinatas to be beaten by enterprising staffers when cash gets low. Crazy, I know.
Beyond the condescending frame and patronizing tone, the article still has a huge problem: what's the alternative? Over the past two years we've seen a marked erosion of campaign finance law, always to the benefit of monied interests. If grassroots donors don't step up to provide a counterweight to that ever-increasing concentration of power, the end result will be the total capture of our electoral system by those interests. Voters will just be the people who show up on election day to ratify a choice that was made long before ballots were printed.
And that's the real reason why grassroots giving matters: by engaging in the fundraising process, grassroots donors are taking ownership of their political future. To use a well-worn GOP chestnut, they have "skin in the game." Grassroots donors raised over half a million dollars for Kathy Hochul (D-NY) and helped her pull out an unlikely win in NY-26. That kind of participation fulfills the promise of American democracy, and shouldn't be treated like some kind of hideous affliction brought on by the digital age.

Pope Francis to celebrate Mass in Cairo on 2nd day of trip
Pope Francis to celebrate Mass in Cairo on 2nd day of trip
Pope Francis will celebrate Mass for Egypt's tiny Catholic community and meet with its priests and seminarians before returning to Rome.
Local media reports say at least 25,000 are expected at Saturday's Mass in Cairo, which comes on the second day of Francis' two-day trip to the Arab world's most populous country.
Francis on Friday urged Egypt's Muslim leaders teach a rejection of violence in God's name during the delicate visit and he strongly backed its uncompromising crackdown on political Islam and militancy.
His main event was a landmark visit to Cairo's Al-Azhar, the revered, 1,000-year-old seat of Sunni Islam learning that trains clerics and scholars from around the world. He also met with President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.

Wells Fargo's (NYSE:WFC) board of directors approved plans on Tuesday to boost the banking giant's quarterly dividend by 14%.
Continue Reading Below
Shares of San Francisco-based Wells Fargo inched higher in after-hours action on the announcement.
Wells Fargo said the dividend increase was part of the bank's capital plan that the Federal Reserve signed off on in March 2012.
The new dividend is 25 cents per share, up from 22 cents previously. Wells Fargo said it is payable on March 1 to shareholders of record as of February 1.
The dividend increase "reflected the confidence we have in our company's performance," CEO John Stumpf said in a statement. "We remain committed to returning more capital to our shareholders."
Wells Fargo said it "requested an increase in capital distributions" in its 2013 capital plan, which was submitted on January 4 and is currently under review by the Fed.
As part of the stress test program that began after the financial crisis, the central bank has the ability to approve or reject banks' efforts to return cash to shareholders through dividend increases and stock buyback programs.
Last week, Citigroup (NYSE:C), which had its capital plan rejected in 2012, declared a quarterly dividend of one-cent per share.
Wells Fargo posted a stronger-than-expected 24% jump in fourth-quarter profits on Friday thanks to strong mortgage-banking income.
Shares of the lender gained 0.26% to $35.13 in extended trading on Tuesday evening, putting them on pace to extend a 12-month gain of nearly 15%.

For aligning shafts in no time at all
Manual (mounting, operation) | 2013-01
FAG Top-Laser EQUILIGN User manual
The FAG Top-Laser EQUILIGN is an alignment system for coupled and decoupled shafts in motors, pumps, ventilators and gearboxes with rolling bearings.
All the parts of the shaft alignment device are supplied packed in a case.
A comprehensive range of accessories is available in order to expand the possible applications of the base device FAG Top-Laser EQUILIGN. The accessories can be ordered as a set in a handy, robust case or as individual parts.
The advantages of the system are as follows:
Before alignment is carried out, any soft foot must be eliminated. FAG Top-Laser EQUILIGN clearly indicates the soft foot. Each individual foot screw connection is loosened and the device is monitored to see if it displays any changes between the foot screwed firmly into place and the loosened foot. The soft foot can then be eliminated using shims. This eliminates any tendency towards vibration and bearing damage as a result of housing deformation. During measurement, at least three positions are approached at different angles. These must be measured at an angle of at least 90°. The intelligent control system prevents incorrect usage here. The actual condition of the subassembly is then displayed.
When the foot screw connections have been loosened, the vertical misalignment is first eliminated by means of shims. FAG Top-Laser EQUILIGN shows the displacement in real time. This means that the user can monitor on the display how the measurement results change as soon as the subassembly is moved. Horizontal adjustment is then carrried out until the symbol with the thumb pointing upwards is displayed. Once the foot screw connections are tightened, the shafts are aligned.
Shims FAG Top-Laser SHIM
Shims FAG Top-Laser SHIM are used to eliminate vertical misalignment or soft feet.
These shims are made from corrosion-resistant alloy steel and are available in seven thicknesses (0,05 mm, 0,1 mm, 0,2 mm, 0,5 mm, 0,7 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm) and in four sizes (dimension c = 15 mm, 23 mm, 32 mm, 44 mm).
As replacement parts, we can supply 10 shims each in one of the 4 sizes and one of the 7 thicknesses stated above.

Facebook on Thursday began rolling out its own app center that the company hopes will get its 900 milllion members to come back more often and stay on the site longer.
The company will begin adding a link on the left side of a members' home page to the app center, which will initially have about 600 free apps, such as Draw Something, Pinterest, Nike+GPS and Jetpack Joyride.
"The app center is a new component inside the Facebook growth engine," Doug Purdy, director of developer products, said during a launch event at the Bloxome Street Winery in San Francisco.
The app center isn't exactly a separate app store. But it does list more information about apps, including which friends are already using them. And the center has links to where to get the apps from outside websites, app stores or Facebook pages.
The app center isn't by itself a direct revenue generator for Facebook, which went public last month. But Facebook hopes to drive more activity and engagement from app use, which overall will help sell more ads and create more user data for marketing purposes.
About 230 million Facebook members played games last month, a number about equal to the population of Indonesia, Purdy said. And 130 games played on Facebook have 1 million or more players.
Facebook is trying to capitalize better on traffic it already sends to the app stores. Last month, Facebook members went to the Apple store 83 million times and to the Android store 134 million times

In a poorly-written and argued editorial for the Seattle PI, Dean Trier, takes on Cascade and I presume the Stone Way issue. He rants on about several other topics and it's not entirely clear what his problem is with cyclists, other than I think he just likes cars better, and claims that Seattle has biker-pampered city streets. Maybe he's a Ken Schram wanna be, but uhm (long pause), I challenge anyone that thinks Seattle cyclists are pampered to join me for a ride down Alaskan Way.
Have a read for yourself and leave it to the PI to drum up web traffic with an article about cycling and then, of course, a Soundoff.
Is it satire? Maybe, but if it was, it wasn't constructed well enough to be comedic.

Grand Central Terminal marks centennial in grand style
When its doors opened at midnight on Feb. 2, 1913, more than 150,000 people flocked to Grand Central Terminal to marvel at the kind of opulence and grandeur usually reserved for grand European palaces or opera houses.
Grand marble staircases, the opal-faced, four-sided clock, sloping ramps to the lower level and the jaw-dropping gold-leafed fresco of the Mediterranean night sky soaring across the vaulted 125-foot ceiling.
One hundred years later, nearly 750,000 commuters a day whiz through the buildings' halls and catacombs, often dodging tourists who continue to marvel at one of New York's most recognized and revered landmarks.
On Friday, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority began a year-long celebration of the centennial of Grand Central Terminal with a day of ceremonies, performances and other events, spanning the building's history, legacy and future.
"The fact that it is still there is quite amazing and a thrill," said Anthony W. Robins, a historian , lecturer and former member of New York City's Landmarks Preservation Commission. "It's an amazing space that represents the history of the city."
Preserving the past
As railroads declined, so did Grand Central. It very nearly met the same fate as its Beaux Arts cousin Pennsylvania Station just a few blocks away.
In 1968, the city's Landmarks Commission denied a developer permission to demolish much of the upper level concourse and the Vanderbilt Room to enable the construction of a 55-story tower designed by modern architect Marcel Breuer. The commission was formed in 1965 after the demolition of Penn Station, which featured many of the same elegant designs as Grand Central.
With the assistance of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Grand Central was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. Two years later, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld New York City's right to preserve historic buildings even if that preservation can be argued to have reduced the rights of private owners to develop those properties.
"The destruction of Pennsylvania Station led the city to pass the Landmarks Preservation Law and Grand Central was the second building designated as a landmark at that time," Robins said.
"Across the country cities were watching that ruling because of course they had also passed their own landmark preservation laws and if New York had lost, all of their laws would be invalid."
Among those appearing on Friday will be Onassis' daughter Caroline Kennedy, along with descendants of Cornelius Vanderbilt, the railroad tycoon who purchased the New York Central Railroad and went on to spend $71 million -- about $1.7 billion when adjusted for inflation to today's dollars -- to build Grand Central.
A grand plan
The impetus behind Grand Central came as a means to quell the chaos as steam trains competed with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians on midtown Manhattan's increasingly crowded, dangerous and dirty streets.
In January 1902, a train from White Plains, N.Y., rear-ended a train from Danbury in the Park Avenue Tunnel, killing 17 people, galvanizing concerted political and community pressure on the Vanderbilt family and the railroad to eliminate the noisy, coal- powered trains.
William J. Wilgus, chief engineer of the New York Central Railroad, devised a plan in 1903 and won approval from Vanderbilt to demolish the train sheds and original station above ground and place it all below grade under Park Avenue by harnessing the latest technological advancement of electic-powered trains.
"There just wasn't enough space anymore between Madison and Lexington to fit tracks, so it was his vision to go underground," said Kurt Schlichting, a Fairfield University professor and author of "Grand Central Terminal: Railroads, Engineering & The Architecture of New York City."
"It also couldn't have happened unless they were able to make electric trains work, so it was an immensely technological project," he said.
In addition to crafting a vision for the infrastructure to operate electric trains, Wilgus wanted to assure the most efficient and user-friendly experience for riders using the terminal. For the first time, retail and office space would be interconnected with the terminal to provide a greater level of amenities for riders, Schlichting said.
Schlichting said Wilgus realized the substitution of electricity for steam-powered trains would allow a greater volume of trains at higher speeds underground and boost shorter haul commuter service on a daily basis.
Wilgus' idea that the two central concourses atop one another should serve different purposes -- an upper level for long-distance trains with their wealthier clientele and a lower one to accommodate the burgeoning surburban commuter service, proved prescient, Schlichting said.
Separating the twice-daily commuter rush made sense to prevent the two separate groups from conflicting, Schlichting said.
"The city was growing and suburbanization had begun and while the suburbs were initially for the wealthy, not the middle class, Wilgus certainly knew that daily rail travel was growing rapidly," he said. "It's a different kind of rail travel, and he knew they should devote an entire level to the commuter service."
Wilgus is also credited for the substitution of a network of gently graded ramps for staircases, making Grand Central Terminal the world's first "stairless" rail depot, Schlichting said. As intended by Wilgus, harried rush-hour commuters swiftly found the walkways a quicker, less painful way than stairs to head underground and reach their platform, according to an article in the New York Times on Feb. 2, 1913.
From that time forward they could enter the terminal without crossing the main concourse.
"Some of the passengers who have been using the gentle incline that leads to the already populous suburban concourse have been heard exclaiming over the novelty and ingeniousness of the arrangement," the New York Times reported.
Changes, but still central
The decision to electrify Grand Central Terminal completed the electrification of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroads rail lines from Woodlawn to Stamford in 1907, enabling improved and more frequent service to outlying areas.
In Greenwich, the new technology resulted in an influx of younger financial executives who commuted daily and built stately homes on subdivided land from larger estates in local hamlets such as Deer Park, Milbank, and Khakum Wood, said Davidde Strackbein, a trustee of the Greenwich Historical Society.
"In the earlier era, the people coming out from New York City were the sugar kings and copper kings, but then you saw them replaced with people who were more the up and coming group of young executives," Strackbein said.
Following the end of World War II began a gradual decline in long-distance rail travel due to the ascendance of the automobile for Americans, putting a tight financial squeeze on the New York Central Railroad, which merged with its former nemesis the Pennsylvania Central Railroad.
Today, the appearance of the terminal remains defined by the renowned Beaux Arts architectural design created by chief architect Whitney Warren in 1907. The terminal building itself also represented a symbolic edifice to New York City's sense of importance as the world's largest city at that time, said Robins, author of the new book "Grand Central Terminal: 100 Years of a New York Landmark."
Aspects such as the Corinthian columns and the sprawling cavern-like grand concourse, were in keeping with the Beaux Arts precept of designing a public building around a central area, Robins said, a school of architecture which leaned heavily on the monumental elements of Greek and Roman architecture.
From the beginning, one of the terminal's defining features was the ceiling fresco on the vaulted cavern-like ceiling of the main concourse which pictured the zodiac in the Mediterranean night sky between October and March.
"The idea was this is too important, our railroad is too important, and the city is too important because this is the center of the world," Robins said. "The Beaux Arts architects had studied the monuments of the Roman Empire and felt America would be the next great empire and needed appropriately grand buildings."

Denard as an NFL prospect
Denard is probably one of the most unique NFL prospects to come along in a while. Breathtaking speed, ridiculous feet...but if you are an NFL franchise, how high do you value him, and where do you see his future? It will be interesting to see his career as it unfolds, right now it appears to be an open book at the next level.
If you type his name and NFL draft into google, you will see him listed as a prospect for WR, RB and CB. To me, he doesnt really look like a WR, although he carried the ball and took a pounding in college, he doesnt seem like an NFL RB either. My opinion is that someone will spend a 3rd round pick on him as a KR/PR specialist, with the idea that he could potentially be used on offense in different capacities as well. Really looking forward to following his career and seeing what he can do.

dan Sex with females and males is always a turn on for me. Love girls bodies, so soft and tender, love to lick, suck and fuck them. With guy's it's different I dont think of them in the same way, They have to be attractive but what I love is their cocks and balls, not into anal but love a cute ass. Guys who suck cock and take a load in their mouth are my type of men. Tell me what you like best dan....
