Sure, drag racing is basically just driving in a straight line a short distance, but when you add rain and speed to that equation, it can get pretty hairy. Like it does here. One little misjudged bit of steering input, and someone's thinking "CRAP" with a backwards "R."
That car really gets spinning after the impact. Impressively, the driver walks away unharmed, and even manages to grab her jacket and purse with a very "oh well, fuck it" kind of demeanor.

ROCHESTER — Dancers from around the region will gather in Rochester on April 6 and 7 for a weekend of performances and master classes. Dance Northeast is a two-day festival produced by Sole City Dance, a non-profit dance education center based in Rochester. Performances will be held on Saturday at the Rochester Opera House and master classes on Sunday at the Sole City Dance studios."Dance Northeast is an opportunity for young dancers and choreographers to celebrate their art and share their work in public performances," explained Sole City's executive director, Christine Hounsell. "Each year, those in attendance are inspired by the diverse choreography presented. We're excited to see what the 2013 festival brings."
On Saturday, April 6 at 7 p.m. at the Rochester Opera House, New York City-based tap dancers Kelly Kaleta and Ryan Casey will join student and adult ensembles from six dance education programs in presenting contemporary choreography. An earlier 2 p.m. show will feature younger dancers and works by up-and-coming student choreographers. Included in the performances will be Alegria Dance Company, Brixham Danceworks, Joy of Dance, Thornton Academy of Dance and Corinne's School of Dance.
On Sunday, master classes will be held at the Sole City Dance studios beginning at 9:30 a.m. and continuing throughout the day. Master class teachers include Kelly Kaleta, tap, Nikki Sell, ballet and musical theater, and SKooj CorE-O for hip hop and modern. Ms. Sell and SKooj CorE-O are on the faculty of the Jeannette Neil Dance Studio in Boston, Mass.

Meet The Artist Formerly Known as John Wesley Harding (Song Premiere)
After performing as John Wesley Harding for the past 25 years, the singer and songwriter born Wesley Stace is returning to his given name on his new album, appropriately called "Self-Titled."
It's not that he hasn't been using Stace professionally: in addition to having released a slew of albums over the years as John Wesley Harding (also the title of a 1967 Bob Dylan LP), he's published three novels as Wesley Stace. Using his birth name made sense for the new album, given the more personal nature of the songs.
"Novels seem to take care of the intellectual business for me these days, and my songs have become a lot more intimate and autobiographical, requiring a different musical treatment entirely," Stace said in a statement. "It seemed ridiculous to sing them under any name but my own. It's time to bring everything under one roof."
"Self-Titled" is due Sept. 17 on Yep Roc. The album includes a pair of tunes co-written by Eleanor Friedberger of the Fiery Furnaces, including "When I Knew," which Speakeasy premieres today. It's a smooth, soulful track powered by a round bassline, subtle strings and Stace's low-key vocals. Listen after the jump.

For the second year in a row, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Metro Denver is hosting Hispanic Chamber Day at the Capitol.
For the president and CEO of the group, Guillermo "Bill" Vidal, it feels like a homecoming. He spent many hours under the Gold Dome when he was director of the Colorado Department of Transportation.
Today's event provides an opportunity for chamber members to meet lawmakers and talk about policies that affect the community. Those mingling at the breakfast reception included Karen Nakandakare, program manager for CH2M Hill and Christine Marquez Hudson, director of the Mi Casa Resource Center for Women.
Sen. Lucia Guzman, D-Denver, and Rep. Robert Ramirez, R-Westminster, will host members when they visit the Senate and House chambers today. In addition, chamber members will hear from Lt. Gov. Joe Garcia and Treasurer Walker Stapleton.

Will I recommend-Maybe. Service was very slow. Took over 30 min to get our order. Asked for a 2nd drink which also took over half hour so we canceled and asked for the check. Staff was courteous but seemed busy and overwhelmed
There were 20 of us and we only had 1 Server. It took forever and our food was cold. Don't recommend for a large group
Service was great despite restaurant being busy. NY strips were tasty.
When we got there it was busy (big parties) who had made previous reservations. The hostess kept disappearing. When she finally got around to other customers and us she said they didnt have our reservation, which we had done with open table. The table was not cleaned, asked our waiter if it could be cleaned and he said he would take care of it. He didn't so I asked another waiter to please clean the table. Won't be going there again.
Very good service, but the food was sub-par. Fish and chips were fried to the point of being burned. Noticeably little fish under the breading. Not expecting British quality, but did expect something better than what we received.
Horrible, just horrible. While I made a reservation, the person greeting us had no record. There were 3 other tables in the restaurant and the service was beyond poor. The Whiskey Chicken was over cooked and dry. 6 people, 2.5 hours later...wow, just wow.
The bruschetta chicken pasta used to be served with angel hair but they changed to fettuccine. Not a good swap in my opinion. But they left off the balsamic glaze and the chicken was fatty. I didn't even eat half of my lunch portion. Very disappointed in this visit.
Being the first and basically only customers in the restaurant, the service was substandard. We had to continually ask for refills, the food took forever (24 minutes for an appetizer) to come out.
Overall, the food was great. The group I was with would have liked to have seen at least accommodating service.
Good happy hour deals. Lots of microbrews to choose from. Tasty food options. Great wait staff.
Our server made the birthday celebration perfect!!!
Had 11 am reservation made weeks in advance for 12 people. Hostess had no idea, table wasn't set up. Put us in the walkway.
Had no issues getting a table for ten. The service was great and staff was accommodating to various weird food allergies which was nice. I do like the Worldgate location as it isn't too crowded and the theater next to it is fantastic. A good meal before or after a movie keeps the the whole party atmosphere going.
Our reservation was right on the requested time. Waitress excellent with personality and service
Food was good, service was very good. The broccoli was over cooked for my taste, I like it crispy.
If you're a fan of the Jack Daniels ribs then by all means that is reason enough to go. Ours were great and always are very consistent. Service was good so no complaints
Good Food and was glad they were open. Service was Quick and drinks were yummy

One question that is always asked by our visitors is "how
did Woolpit get its name; was it from wool, wolves, etc.?" Our
village sign should give some clue; early spellings vary -
Wlfpeta is just one example - but many think that the name means
'a pit for trapping wolves'. However, the most probable
explanation will be found in the local Museum, housed in the
Institute in the village centre.
In 1016 Ulfketel, Earl of East Anglia, granted the church
and manor of
Wlfpeta to the Abbey of St Edmunds. The monks
received ten marks yearly from this grant, but the King
appropriated the revenues for the benefit of one of his
officials. A monk named Sampson determined to put matters right
and in 1159 travelled to Rome to obtain a charter from Pope
Alexander III. Despite being captured and robbed by his enemies
in the course of his journey, Sampson managed to preserve the
Popes precious letter directing the reversion of Woolpit and its
church to the monks, and returned to England after three years.
The monks were once again able to enjoy the income, and Sampson
was later appointed Abbot.
One prominent feature of the village sign is two small children.
They depict a story that goes back to the 12th century and tells
the legend of 'The Green Children of Woolpit'. This curious tale
is recorded as taking place at about the same time as Sampson's
journey to Rome. Very briefly, reapers were astonished at the
discovery of a boy and a girl in a hole in the ground. The
children were green, and spoke no recognisable language. The
boy, who was sickly, soon died, but the girl grew up in Woolpit,
and is said to have married a man from King's Lynn. This story
has been re-enacted on many occasions and has appeared on childrens' television.
According to records which date back to the fifteenth century,
two important fairs were held in Woolpit. The Horse Fair was
held on two closes, or fields, on September 16. The Cow Fair, on
September 19, was also held on its own field; here toys were
sold as well as cattle.
The village centre is a conservation area and the brick-faced
houses are mostly all timber faced.

What is everything in the universe made of? What was the universe like billions of years ago?
These are eternal questions that humans have pondered throughout the ages. Today, we are on the verge of potentially making revolutionary breakthroughs in answering them.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is a 27-kilometre long underground experiment located on the Swiss-French border near Geneva. It smashes subatomic particles together at vast speeds in an effort to learn more about the fundamental building blocks that make up everything around you. It is the biggest, most ambitious scientific experiment in human history.
On December 13, the LHC announced the latest findings in its search for the last undiscovered particle in our current model of subatomic particles. This particle is the near-mythical 'Higgs Boson' — the particle thought to be involved in giving other particles their mass.
This educational event, geared towards high school students, teachers and the general public, followed CERN's announcement and discussed its findings and implications in clear, accessible language.
Host Damian Pope and PI Researchers Natalia Toro, Philip Schuster, and experimental particle physicist Andy Haas of New York University participate in an informative and interactive discussion.

Developer Announces Six Restaurants For Pike & Rose
Federal Realty on Wednesday announced a batch of new restaurants coming to its Pike & Rose redevelopment project at Mid-Pike Plaza, including Del Frisco's Grille, Protein Bar, a yet-to-be named artisan pizza eatery and a new American cuisine restaurant.
The Rockville-based developer, overseeing construction on phase one of the 24-acre mixed-use development, signed six restaurant tenants in total. The list includes Roti Mediterranean Grill and ShopHouse Southeast Asian Kitchen, news of which came out when the fast casual restaurants announced openings elsewhere in Bethesda.
All six restaurants will open in fall 2014 as part of phase one of the project, which will be anchored by a luxury iPic movie theater and Strathmore-operated music venue.
Del Frisco's opened a D.C. location in July 2012 on Pennsylvania Avenue. The upscale bar and grill does American comfort classics.
"We are excited to welcome our new friends and neighbors at Pike & Rose to Del Frisco's Grille with our warm, genuine hospitality," CEO Mark S. Mednansky said. "We are thrilled to have such wonderful real estate partners and have strategically chosen the most dynamic locations in cities with exciting growth and vibrant dining scenes."
Chicago-based Protein Bar does fast casual breakfast dishes, blended drinks, grilled burritos, chilis, salads and other offerings. The company's fourth D.C.-area location will open along Old Georgetown Road next to ShopHouse and Roti.
The Lettuce Entertain You restaurant group will open the aritsan pizza restaurant and new American cuisine operation. The group is behind Mon Ami Gabi, the French steakhouse in Federal Realty's Bethesda Row. Chef and partner Jeff Mahin, who runs Stella Barra Pizzeria and M Street Kitchen in California and Do-Rite Donuts in Chicago, will take charge of both projects.
Bethesda native Chris Meers will partner up with him.
Pike & Rose is the first major mixed-use redevelopment project spurred by the 2010 White Flint Sector Plan to break ground. Federal Realty's Evan Goldman said phase one of the project will represent the best collection of dining and entertainment in the White Flint area.

The ring of muscles surrounding the anus. There are two rings, the outer and the inner. The outer is under voluntary control. The inner is not (it is controlled by the autonomic nervous system but can be trained to relax therapeutically with biofeedback). To identify this muscle, squeeze your anus as though you are holding back gas. This is the muscle that primarily drives the motion of the Aneros.
Or BPH. A non-cancerous enlarging of the prostate common in middle aged and older men, often causing urinary symptoms. BPH is one of the prostate ailments that the Aneros was originally developed to help treat. (from the wiki)
see Benign Prostate Hyperplasia
The patented design of our massagers allows them to be used completely – hands-free. This is an advantage over other prostate massagers. It allows an Aneros massager to be used in any position the user wants. More importantly, it frees the user to focus solely on the sensations instead of making a conscious effort to manually manipulate the massager. This subtle freedom is important for bringing the mind and body together during a session, which by many experience users is considered a required technique to master in order to achieve a Super-O.
Aneros massagers can be enjoyed in many different ways – to enhance a strength and pleasure of penile orgasms during partnered or solo sex, or solely for the pleasures derived from prostate orgasms. The ultimate experience for the route is the Super-O. The practice and understanding of how an Aneros massager, the body, and mind play off of one another to eventually achieve a Super-O is now commonly referred to as the "Journey to the Super-O" by our community members. For some men, this learning period is short in duration. For others, it can take quite some time. There are some key milestones on this journey – they can be viewed
Also known as the K-Tab. Curves upwards to rest above the anus between the buttocks to pressure on an acupressure spot there. Named after the yoga concept that there is a serpent of power located at the base of the body's trunk. The K-Tab and the arm that it extends from has taken the place of the handle seen in other Aneros models. (adapted from the wiki)
The pubococcygeus muscle, one of a number of muscles in the pelvic floor. It is a hammock-like muscle, found in both sexes, that stretches from the pubic bone to the coccyx (tail bone) forming the floor of the pelvic cavity and supporting the pelvic organs. The PC muscle is largely involved in sexual response and contracting during orgasm. It is believed that strengthening leads to longer, more powerful orgasms. (from the wiki)
The set of muscles that span the area beneath the pelvis, supporting the pelvic organs. (from the wiki)
The area between the scrotum and anus. The perineum provides external access to the prostate and a pudendal nerve acupressure spot.
On Aneros devices, the front arm which curves upward to press on the perineum during an Aneros session. This actions prevents external prostate stimulation. It also acts as a fulcrum against which the device can pivot to perform the internal prostate stimulation.
Aneros massagers are made from 3 different types of plastic. All are FDA approved and medical-grade, non-porous, and each has the right density for the right weight and balance for that particular model.
Inflammation of the prostate. Although there are many suspected causes, (bacterial infection, auto-immune response and neuromuscular tension), prostatitis remains an intractable disease which is often times unresponsive to traditional forms of treatment. Before the advent of antibiotics prostate massage was the first line form of treatment. In recent years with many people turning to holistic and homeopathic forms of medicine, prostate massage has been enjoying resurgence. (from the wiki)
Prostate specific antigen. A chemical produced in the prostate and measured in the blood as an indication of cellular activity in the prostate. Abnormally high levels of PSA may indicate health concerns such as inflammation or cancer. The PSA measurement may be elevated by ejaculation, and any form of anal play, including the Aneros. Ask your doctor for a recommended period of abstention prior to taking this test (the Aneros manufacturer suggests a few days to a week). (from the wiki)
We call our silicone "Velvet Touch" for its luxurious, matte finish which is designed to hold lubricant. Silicone is used in our Syn models as well as the Vice and deVice.
An abbreviation of Super orgasm. An overwhelmingly strong non-ejaculatory orgasmic event. Orgasms that have no refractory period allowing them to be repeated multiple times. Though different for each man, the Super-O is considered to be the ultimate pleasure a man can achieve.

Man Pleads Guilty to a $2 Million Mortgage Fraud
TALLAHASSEE, FL – June 29, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — Robert Martin Tolentino, 50, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, pleaded guilty in federal court in Tallahassee today to defrauding SunTrust Mortgage, Inc. on a $2 million mortgage. The guilty plea was announced Pamela C. Marsh, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Florida.
In October 2006, Tolentino applied for refinancing of his residential property located on St. George Island. In his application, he falsely represented that his monthly salary was $48,000 to $60,000 per month. According to Tolentino's W-2 forms which were submitted to the Internal Revenue Service, his annual salary was approximately $183,647 and $174,250, for the 2005 and 2006 tax years, respectively. Tolentino also misrepresented that the subject property was his primary residence, when in fact, he had listed the property with a vacation rental business and had received more than $20,000 in rental income between July and December 2006. The rental income was not disclosed on the application and Sun Trust Mortgage approved the loan for $2 million.
Tolenino's sentencing is scheduled for September 26, 2012, before United States District Judge Judge Robert L. Hinkle. Tolentino is facing a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison, a $1 million fine, five years of supervised release, and a $100 special monetary assessment as a result of his conviction for committing wire fraud affecting a financial institution.
U.S. Attorney Marsh had special praise for the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, whose investigation led to the prosecution in this case. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Winifred Acosta NeSmith.

Harold Eugene Edgerton also known as Papa Flash (April 6, 1903 – January 4, 1990) was a professor of electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[1] He is largely credited with transforming the stroboscope from an obscure laboratory instrument into a common device. He also was deeply involved with the development of sonar and deep-sea photography, and his equipment was used by Jacques Cousteau in searches for shipwrecks and even the Loch Ness monster.[2]
Early years
Edgerton was born in Fremont, Nebraska, on April 6, 1903, the son of Mary Nettie Coe and Frank Eugene Edgerton,[3][4] a descendant of Richard Edgerton, one of the founders of Norwich, Connecticut and a descendant of Governor William Bradford (1590–1657) of the Plymouth Colony and a passenger on the Mayflower. His father was a lawyer, journalist, author and orator and served as the assistant attorney general of Nebraska from 1911 to 1915. Harold grew up in Aurora, Nebraska. He also spent some of his childhood years in Washington, D.C., and Lincoln, Nebraska.
In 1925 Edgerton received a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln where he became a member of Acacia Fraternity.[5] He earned an S.M. in electrical engineering from MIT in 1927. Edgerton used stroboscopes to study synchronous motors for his Sc.D. thesis in electrical engineering at MIT, awarded in 1931. He credited Charles Stark Draper with inspiring him to photograph everyday objects using electronic flash; the first was a stream of water coming out of a faucet.
In 1937 Edgerton began a lifelong association with photographer Gjon Mili, who used stroboscopic equipment, in particular, multiple studio electronic flash units, to produce strikingly beautiful photographs, many of which appeared in Life Magazine. When taking multiflash photographs this strobe light equipment could flash up to 120 times a second. Edgerton was a pioneer in using short duration electronic flash in photographing fast events photography, subsequently using the technique to capture images of balloons at different stages of their bursting, a bullet during its impact with an apple, or using multiflash to track the motion of a devil stick, for example. He was awarded a bronze medal by the Royal Photographic Society in 1934, the Howard N. Potts Medal from the Franklin Institute in 1941,[6] the David Richardson Medal by the Optical Society of America in 1968,[7] the Albert A. Michelson Medal from the same Franklin Institute in 1969,[8] and the National Medal of Science in 1973.[9]
Edgerton teamed up with Kenneth J. Germeshausen to do consulting work with different industrial clients. Later Herbert Grier joined them. The company name "Edgerton, Germeshausen, and Grier" was changed to EG&G in 1947. EG&G became a prime contractor for the Atomic Energy Commission and had a major role in photographing and recording nuclear tests for the United States through the fifties and sixties. For this role Edgerton and Charles Wykoff and others at EG&G developed and manufactured the Rapatronic camera
His work was instrumental in the development of side-scan sonar technology, used to scan the sea floor for wrecks. Edgerton worked with the undersea explorer Jacques Cousteau, by first providing him with custom designed underwater photographic equipment featuring electronic flash, and then by developing sonar techniques used to discover the Britannic. Edgerton participated in the discovery of the American Civil War battleship USS Monitor. While working with Cousteau, he acquired the nickname he is still known by in photographic circles, "Papa Flash".
In addition to having the scientific and engineering acumen to perfect strobe lighting commercially, Edgerton is equally recognized for his visual aesthetic: many of the striking images he created in illuminating phenomena that occurred too fast for the naked eye adorn art museums worldwide. In 1940, his high speed stroboscopic short film Quicker'n a Wink won an Oscar.[10]
Edgerton was appointed a professor of electrical engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1934.[11] In 1956, Edgerton was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.[12] He was especially loved by MIT students for his willingness to teach and his kindness: "The trick to education", he said, "is to teach people in such a way that they don't realize they're learning until it's too late". His last undergraduate class, taught during fall semester 1977, was a freshman seminar titled "Bird and Insect Photography". One of the graduate student dormitories at MIT carries his name.
In 1962, Dr. Edgerton appeared on I've Got a Secret, where he demonstrated strobe flash photography by shooting a bullet into a playing card and photographing the result.
Edgerton's work was featured in an October 1987 National Geographic Magazine article entitled "Doc Edgerton: the man who made time stand still".
After graduating from the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, Edgerton married Esther May Garrett[13] in 1928. She was born in Hamilton County, Nebraska on September 8, 1903 and died on March 9, 2002 in Charlestown, South Carolina. She received a bachelor's degree in mathematics, music and education from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. A skilled pianist and singer, she attended the New England Conservatory of Music and taught in public schools in Aurora, Nebraska and Boston. During their marriage they had three children: Mary Louise (4/21/1931), William Eugene (8/9/1933), Robert Frank (5/10/1935). His sister, Mary Ellen Edgerton, was the wife of L. Welch Pogue (1899–2003) a pioneering aviation attorney and Chairman of the old Civil Aeronautics Board. David Pogue, a technology writer, journalist and commentator, is his great nephew.
Edgerton remained active throughout his later years, and was seen on the MIT campus many times after his official retirement. He died suddenly on January 4, 1990 at the MIT Faculty Club at the age of 86, and is buried in Mount Auburn Cemetery, Cambridge, Massachusetts.[14]
On July 3, 1990, in an effort to memorialize his accomplishments, several community members in Aurora, Nebraska decided to construct a "Hands-On" science center. It was designated as a "teaching museum," that would preserve Doc's work and artifacts, as well as feature the "Explorit Zone" where people of all ages could participate in hands-on exhibits and interact with live science demonstrations. After five years of private and community-wide fund-raising, as well as individual investments by Doc's surviving family members, the Edgerton Explorit Center was officially dedicated on September 9, 1995.[15]
At MIT, the Edgerton Center, founded in 1992, is a hands-on laboratory resource for undergraduate and graduate students, and also conducts educational outreach programs for high school students and teachers.[16]

MISSION: Redwood Community Radio will encourage a communication center of open airways (KMUD) for all voices to inform, educate, entertain and inspire the listening community through quality programming.
Board of Directors - Redwood Community Radio
Tues., 17 Dec., 2013 – 5 pm
Music Library (Station) - Redway, CA
I.Roll Call: Vice President Noel Soucy (Programmers' Rep.); Treasurer Julia Minton (Members' Rep.); Secretary Jack Frybulous (Programmers' Rep.); Nella White, (Members' Rep.); Marcy Stein (Programmers' Rep.); Mark Marchese (Board-appointed); Kim Peterson (Board-appointed); Christine Doyka (Board-appointed); Station Manager Jeanette Todd (ex-officio) Absent: President Siena Klein (Members' Rep.)
Note: This meeting completed the agenda of the November 26 board meeting. Added to tonight's agenda was New Business item: Budget for Free Speech Radio News.
II.Unfinished business
B.Appointments to Management Evaluation Com. – Julia moved that Angela Zane, Julia Minton, Christine Doyka, Siena Klein and Cher Oakes be appointed. Mark seconded; approved unanimously. Julia will inform Angela and Kim will inform Cher.
C.Compliance calendar revisions – Insurance renewal deadlines are still unclear. Jeanette asked Board to approve this draft; Marcy moved to accept as is; Christine seconded. Passed unanimously.
D.Disciplinary policy – Noel moved to approve the policy as worded, and moved to next month's Consent Calendar; seconded and unanimously approved. (The approved draft is dated 10/16/13.)
E.Fair Access to Airwaves policy – Kim moved (with a friendly amendment from Jama) that we revise the third paragraph of this policy: that there will be a response to program proposals "in a timely manner, from the PSRC." Noel seconded; unanimously approved. Julia will communicate this change with chair of the PSRC (Margaret) [ACTION].
F.Tech proposal – Julia moves to table, seconded; unanimously approved.
G.Unassigned Board duties – The Board did not assign the tasks of creating or editing the documents it makes changes to; persons will be assigned at the time such work is generated. Jama volunteered to finalize the Compliance Calendar approved today, and will ask Siena if she's willing to update the Grievance Panelists' contact list [ACTIONS].
Secretarial duties – ExCom creates a draft agenda for the next Board meeting, but receives input from other ExCom members after the meeting before it is turned into the "final" Agenda (now done by Siena to lighten the Secretary's load) and sent to the Board and staff. What we are trying to decide with the Minutes is: who takes it after the Board approves them? Who takes that draft and makes it a final doc and sends it on its way? Kim offered to try to learn the skill of "finalizing minutes" in a meeting with Noel and Jack, which Jack will organize.
G1. Revision of Approved Minutes for September 2013. Marcy recommended a revision, so Noel proposed that this be added to the agenda as item G.1. Noel moved that Sept. Minutes be revised: Delete 4th sentence from Unfinished business, item A: Appt to CAB. The Board approved this motion.
H.Fall pledge drive contingency plan – Jeanette reminded us that we are $22K short of our total 2013 Pledge drive goals. Custom-messaging brochure in the mail, and car-donation info sent out to another 3200 people. Kim and Julia made a commitment to approach friends for donations. Marcy, Jack and Kim offer to record a promo, reminding that KMUD could sure use end-of-the-year (tax-deductible) donations.
I.Programmers' agreement revisions – Marcy moved to approve revisions, with friendly amendment to include the check-box offering membership to Programmers; Julia moved that we table this; seconded. Marcy removed her motion. Unanimously approved.
III.New business
A.Consider auditor appointment, contract revisions – Tabled.
B.Consider new meeting date – The Board has changed its monthly meeting date to first Tuesdays at 5; next meeting Feb. 4.
C.Budget for Free Speech Radio News – FSRN now costs $7K/yr. Starting a Kickstarter campaign would allow our listeners to decide whether they want it. However, doing that – either for FSRN or for any or all of our syndicated programs – may effect pledge drive activity in unexpected ways. Jack made a motion to ask the Development Com. to start a Kickstarter campaign to fund FSRN [ACTION]; unanimously approved.
D.Board talk show: Noel will start an email thread asking people what topics should be covered.
IV.Scheduling - monthly meeting times
Unless otherwise noted, all meetings take place at KMUD, 1144 Redway Dr., Redway, CA.

Besides, it's possible to make a virtual tour inside the 12 museums of the system thanks to the Street View technology which allows to browse at 360º and to get a closer view of the artworks, and to eximine them closer.
The Google Art Project, is part of the Google Art Institute, and it is a platform online by which people from all over the world can have access to to the high resolution images of the most important workarts made avalaible from the museums partners of this activity, with the aim "to increase" the access to culture and its preservation for the future generations.
The project, launched on 11th february 2011 in collaboration with 17 museums, includes more than 63.000 artworks and 345 partners. The number is destined to increase.
On www.google.com/artproject the visitors of the platform can browse the workarts according to the: name of the artist, title, type of art, museum, country, and period of time. Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and the video are integrated in the platform, allowing the users to invite their friends to see and discuss about their favourite workarts. Among the other options avalaible "Le mie Gallerie" allows to save the specific views of the masterpieces selected and to create your own gallery. Feedbacks can be added to each painting and the whole gallery can be shared with your friends. Furthermore, the option "Confronta" allows to examine the two works of art "side by side" on the same screen, to see closer how the style of an artist has evolved during the time, connecting the artistic moods, or analyizing two details of a workart.
Google Art Project is classified as a "digital tool" allowing the users connected from all over the world to approach the artworks, the archeological finds and the artistic products with a simple "click" to find the most hidden details.

Cooke backs down because he's not a fighter. I'm ok with that. Neil, however, is a fighter but still backs down from everyone equal to or better than him with the fists.
Big Mac is not Neil's size. I thought Cooke would have benefited from Fightimg Neil. Obviously, he played well so it didn't matter, but willingly answering (even if he doesn't have to) early in the game eliminates all the chippiness later in the game through which a player could actually get hurt. Like I've said before, that's what he did with Thornton after Savard and Boston left him alone.
That's a fair point. Clearly, it was more important to him to make a statement that he had absolutely nothing to answer for. Hindsight is 20/20, but with 2 pts and no new injuries in the bag, I'm glad he trolled the Sens and some of their fans and media by refusing to go.
Get over it, Ottawa.
You're probably right that he didn't want to fight because he thought the circus surrounding the freak accident was absurd.

Ibrahimovic: I had never seen Cabaye play
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has revealed he had never seen new Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Yohan Cabaye play before his arrival at the club.
Cabaye, who joined PSG from Premier League side Newcastle United on Wednesday in a deal believed to be worth £20 million, came off the bench to make his debut for the Ligue 1 leaders in Friday's win over Bordeaux, secured by goals from Ibrahimovic and Alex.
The midfielder came close to capping his maiden appearance for the defending French champions with a goal as he hit the post with a header.
Afterwards Ibrahimovic admitted to knowing little about the former Lille man, although he is hopeful that Cabaye's presence will be of benefit to PSG as Laurent Blanc's men seek to retain the Ligue 1 title and reach the latter stages of the UEFA Champions League.
"With all due respect to him (Cabaye), I had never seen him play before," Ibrahimovic told beIN Sport.
"But he came on during the game and did good things. The more good players we have, the better for us. We will need everyone."
Ibrahimovic and Cabaye will attempt to help PSG reach the Coupe de la Ligue final when they face Nantes in the last four on Tuesday.

The dollar eased in Europe after it registered fresh trend highs in thin Asia trade. Asian participants fished for stops after last week's big move out of EUR-USD longs amid renewed talk of Fed taper and ECB rate cut speculation following weaker than expected Eurozone CPI data. However, after printing 1.3442 lows it pushed back over 1.3500 in Europe. Eurozone data included an as-expected manufacturing PMI release and Eurozone investor sentiment rose, but it did not dampen rate cut speculation. GBP was supported by a reserve manager and a robust U.K. construction PMI release. Overnight, China non-manufacturing PMI came in at 56.3 in October from 55.4 previously.
EUR-USD headed back through 1.3500 amid light repositioning and after Eurozone manufacturing PMI. The number was confirmed at 51.3, which is in line with the preliminary reading, though national data remains mixed. Activity is expanding in most Eurozone countries, apart from France and Greece, but the recovery is still fragile and uneven. Eurozone Sentix investor sentiment jumped in November to 9.3 from 6.1 previously. EUR-USD traded into the 1.3515 area, where fresh supply was noted. Short term accounts are fading moves into 1.3520 initially and then into 1.3540-50 if seen.
USD-JPY is consolidating ahead of the 98.50 region after offers from 98.90 capped overnight. USD-JPY largely matched last Friday 98.85 top, but option related offers put a top in place overnight. Japanese markets were close for Culture Day and volumes were low. A slightly correction in EUR-USD since late Asia has weighed a touch on USD-JPY, though underlying dollar strength and a revival in Fed taper risk has left the bias with the topside. There are still a congestion of outstanding barriers related to range binary positions that run until late November and early December, which should fuel supply on strength. These are noted from 99.00 layered into 100.00.
Cable recorded session highs above 1.5960 after U.K. construction PMI rose to 59.4 in October from 58.9 in September, which were the best levels since 2007. Over the actual release Cable rallied from 1.5940 and was supported early on by demand via an Asian reserve manager following the move down to 1.5904 trend lows in Asia. These were the weakest levels since mid-October when Cable traded at 1.5895, which marked the bottom of the recent range. There is likely to be some natural demand on dips, but with Fed taper risk back on the horizon Cable will struggle to sustain higher levels.
CHF maintained a mixed tone due to contrasting USD and EUR flows. A push out EUR long positions late last week left EUR-CHF over 1.2300 at the European open, but this has been offset to a degree by USD-CHF's supportive tone. During the Asian session it moved up to 0.9150 in thin trade and then edged back to 0.9115 as the dollar corrected in Europe. The CHF may see buying interest on dips against the EUR in the very near-term, with ECB rate cut expectations picking up last week. Meanwhile, USD-CHF should remain supportive in light of the revival in Fed taper risk after recent U.S. data. Buy orders are noted into 0.9100 and 0.9075-80.
USD-CAD struggled to make any topside progress and probed the 1.0405 area in early Europe. Bias was turned slightly to the downside after the short term market got caught long last week after 1.0500 barriers held into expiry, while there was also heavy CAD demand related to the Barrick Gold equity offering. However, now that these factors are no longer relevant there is more potential for USD-CAD to sustain higher levels. A lot will depend on how risk assets perform though.

I've had it out with these guys before, but I just really had to express this view:
I will never, ever, ever join a political party called "The National ATHEIST Party"
I think that naming a political party after the word 'Atheist' and claim it's an inclusive secular party is asinine. A Christian whose primary voting concern is for his government to be Secular, is not going to want to join a party that says 'National Atheist Party'. Same with a Deist, a Buddhist, or anyone else who describes themselves as spiritual but not religious, or religious but pro-secularism.
When I suggested the name be "The National Secular Party", the response I got was:
"You don't understand the use of the term and the intent, you're making assumptions that don't stand up if you would review the charter and FAQ
We are the "Atheist" party for several reasons, and each member may have varying personal reasons for why the chosen voted upon name is or is not justified.
Atheist is the demographic of the National Atheist Party's founders and of the voting bloc the National Atheist Party most actively seeks to engage and empower.
There is a bad connotation to the word "atheist". We want to re-claim the word and make it a positive connotation. Much like the African-American activists of the 50s did with "negro." They don't use it now, but it was a necessary first step.
Humanist and Secularist are terms that the public doesn't understand very well; there is not an immediate understanding that we share a belief that gods, do not exist. Those that will be critical or malign us don't call Secularists, secularists. When 80% of the population calls you an atheist, you do not empower yourself by adopting what you hope to be a less castigated term, in the hopes of escaping the stigma or placating others by manipulating vague qualifiers."
The problem with his logic is as I said before: Not all Secularists are Atheists. Not all Humanists are Atheists. Not all Atheists though are Humanists, or Secularists (I know several Atheists who are 'conservative Atheists' that think religion has the right idea even if the basis for it is totally wrong and mythical). Atheist doesn't SAY anything about a political party. But anybody can be secular, even a Cardinal, or the Pope (if he were liberal enough). You don't have to be an Atheist to believe that religion has no place in government. Our founding fathers were some mix of Deist, Pantheist, or liberally religious and yet still supported Secularism.
The party makes clear in its goals that Secularism is pretty much its most important issue, and yet they use such an exclusive term. I posted a Facebook status about this issue and found that 90% of my Atheist friendlist opposed the name of the party and agreed National Secular Party was more appropriate.
What are your thoughts?
Views: 271
I don't vote for one issue candidates or parties, no matter how much I may share their concerns. So the Atheist Party won't be getting my vote for the same reason Green or Marijuana parties don't get my vote.
I'm looking for a National Secular Humanist Party - something that actually has a set of beliefs that can influence government on more than one issue.
That sounds like a cool party (National Secular Humanist Party) ... maybe you could set it up or something. Grassroots organizing.
Same here.
When some officers of NAP came on here I asked, and received, the same response you did.
Yeah, using the word 'atheist' in the name of an organization isn't a bad idea, until it's a political party. We have organizations that spread ideas of free thought, reason, science, and atheism as social activist groups, which can stand up for just one main cause, but when you have a political party you really can't box yourself in like that.
It would be really hard for a political organization to get off of the ground on the idea of secularism or atheism regardless of what other issues you stand for, and by throwing the word atheist into the title, which would lead individuals to infer that is all you stood for, you are even further undermining your own effort. Like I said, that would be okay, if they were an activist group, and even if they associated themselves or lobbied a certain political party, but it wouldn't work on its own.
You really have to look at the main ideological standpoints and go from there. Another point to be made is that, even if everyone in your group is atheist, will they agree across the board on other issues and find a constituency that could adhere to ones similar? So when you want to organize another political party, you have to first start with all major issues (economy, education, energy, entitlements, taxes, defense, foreign affairs, social issues, environment, criminal justice, heath care, immigration, commerce, infrastructure, R&D, then religion/secularism and role of government in all of the above) and then form a name that corresponds with, and doesn't undermined your across the board political/governmental ideology.
In my opinion, being a Democrat (I'm with them on majority of the issues), I see nothing wrong with just being active as the part of a non-political atheist organization that stands for free-thought, separation of church and state, secularism, science, education and reason in general, and pushing your ideas as part of that and trying to break into politics indirectly through a major political party. The thing holding major parties back is the polls having over 90% of Americans saying that they believe in God and over 80% identifying with a specific religion (majority Christianity). With only roughly 8% of American's being atheist, it's best to attack the problem at its roots and as people get influenced, the major parties will get influenced also.
I think National Secular Party is fine because their main problem is the violation of the separation of church and state. I don't think it should be a one-party issue. I think the party should stand for the handling of government without the interference of religion, and should draft a wide range of views they can generally agree on (like being pro-choice to a point, being for the increased funding of NASA, et cetera; things that further secularist interests without excluding religious people at the same time).
I'm all for Atheist-named non political groups, like the Atheist aid groups in Texas that do charity giving and stuff, but just not for a political party. I want religion OUT of government because it makes Atheists feel excluded. I don't want Atheists to turn around and exclude religious people out of a party by using a stupid name that does it by itself.
I just looked up the National Atheist Party website. Basically, I get what they are trying to do, and with what they are trying to do, Atheist would actually be a better name than Secular.
They seem to be leaning toward the left, and anything leaning toward the left might as well be Democrat. It isn't going to survive on it's own, but hopefully they have a shot at picking up popularity, spreading atheism and hopefully become a more rational, Democrat version of the Tea Party. I can't really see them being anything more than a politically active social group, which I happen to be in favor of, as I explained in my earlier post.
I don't think exclusion of religious people will play a role, and I don't feel having the word atheist in their name will hurt their cause. If they are thinking of gaining nation wide political support, it isn't going to happen anyway, but if they want to integrate atheism into politics by making it a more widely understood and accepted then they might have a shot, and putting atheist in the title actually could help their cause more than hurting it.
The only real problem would seem to be excluding other atheist who might disagree with them politically, but given that atheism has a very strong correlation with liberal/progressive, if they take that stand politically, they won't have much of a problem. As long as they don't swing to far from the center they probably won't have a problem anyway.
Totally agree. I see what they are trying to say with their response, but they are missign the point also. In order to make a change you cannot start by offending and excluding. There are people, even Christians who know that religion is not to be mandated from the government. That is the part that sickens me. How can you mandate a religion that is not even the predominant religion of the world? The arrogance of them to believe their way is the only way because their book says so..I am sure all of them say so..anyway, I digress. I think Secular Party would be a much better name..more inclusive of all non-believers, and "smaller government" types.
Secular party would be fine. I guess my base problem with the National Atheist Party is this: When believers hear the word atheist, they seem to cringe. Since atheism is generally frowned upon by theists, I'd have to say the proper start would be to exclude the word from anything politically motivated to put members in political office. Although I don't particularly believe religion is good in even the slightest sense of the word, I also understand that it will never fully leave society. For this reason, things will never be accomplished when the general public distrusts us as a general minority. The first step is to prove them wrong on all basis' that they have established as general stereotypes. Once you can get that out of the crosshairs, you can concentrate on really pushing the secular ideals back in government. Like you stated, Ava, the main goal of this type of political party is to promote separation of church and state. In other words and simpler terms: I agree with you.
Ideology is the biggest enemy of America, not religion.
Christianity v. Atheism is a minor issue in the scheme of things. America is dying in a demographic, cultural, economic, and military ditch. On all metrics, the USA is in decline. China is becoming the superpower. Quibbling about abortion, or what we teach our kids in school is a minor issue.
What America needs is a new political party that protects America's identity and power from being lost in the demented ideology of borderless globalisation and one-worldism (which in reality will just balkanise and cripple America, leaving China to rule the world).
So if someone like Pat Buchanan (a Christian) started a party, I'd vote for it in a flash - if I was an American.
But my ideal party would not identify as Christian or Atheist, but identify as American first and foremost, and give each other the freedom to live and let live within an overarching shared identity.
I find it difficult even to belong to local Athiest groups since there really is nothing we have in common other than we don't believe in something.

Hello everybody,
I am Ayla, and I own a lab mix rescue named Katy. She was 'Dog of the Day' on November 1st. Good way to start out a month! I have owned Katy for some time now, and I have taught her so much. I tried to go to a trainer with her, I learned more on my own then I did with the trainer. Since then, I have taught everything she knows by myself. Quite proud of how well she's done since adopting her. Now I mainly do trick training with her, always trying to see what else I can train her. She catches on to things so quickly though, so it makes training a breeze.
If you would like to see more Katy love, just simply swing on over to her Facebook page. There you'll get a photo or more a day and sometimes a video!
Here's a photo of her!

Census Records for New York
This entry was originally written by Roger D. Joslyn, CG, FUGA, FGBS, FASG for Red Book: American State, County, and Town Sources.
Population Schedules
• Indexed'1790, 1800, 1810, 1820, 1830, 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1890 (fragment), 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930
• Soundex'1880, 1900, 1920
Industrial and Agricultural Schedules
• 1820 (industrial only), 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880
Mortality Schedules
• 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880
Union Veterans Schedules
• 1890 (indexed)
Microfilms of the federal censuses for New York, 1790 to 1930, and corresponding book and microfilm indexes are available in several places throughout the state and country. There are three published indexes for the 1800 census. The 1850 index published by AISI covers only half of the towns for Westchester County, as the other half were indexed in error from the 1860 census (see David L. Kent and John C. Baskin, Westchester County, New York, the Index to That Half of Westchester County Omitted from the Accelerated Indexing Systems Index to the 1850 Federal Census of New York [Austin, Tex.: the authors, 1993]). Some counties have their 'short form' copies of the 1880 census, which serve as complete indexes (by district) to that census (see the Douglas-Yates guide mentioned below). Within the state, the National Archives'Northeast Region has complete sets of these records as do the New York Public Library, the New York State Library, and the Onondaga County Public Library (see New York Archives, Libraries, and Societies). The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society has the census through 1920 for New York. Most of these collections include the 1910 street indexes to enumeration districts for the New York City boroughs of Manhattan, Bronx, Brooklyn, and Staten Island. Many libraries with genealogical collections have microfilms of most or all the censuses for their particular county and often for surrounding counties. Several early New York censuses have been published, many in Tree Talks, some in The NYG&B, and in the volumes by Ralph Van Wood for Cayuga, Herkimer, Oneida, and Ontario counties. Two enumerations were taken in New York City in 1870. Parts of the enumerations for the towns of Eastchester (Westchester County) and Brookhaven (Suffolk County) are among the few surviving schedules of the 1890 federal census. A recount of the 1890 enumeration for New York City (Manhattan and West Bronx), called the 'Police Census' (since it was taken by the city police)'which is available at the Municipal Archives, The New York Public Library, and The New York Genealogical and Biographical Society'fills part of the void of the destroyed federal census. Damaged and missing censuses include the following:
• 1810: Cortland and part of Broome County'missing
• 1860: Chenango and Columbia counties'damaged
• 1880: Suffolk County and New York City Wards 21 and 22'damaged
The corresponding federal mortality, agricultural, industry/manufacturing, and other schedules are available at the state library, and microfilms of these records are also at the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society and the Queensborough Library in Jamaica, Long Island.
Colonial and State
Some important censuses were taken in colonial New York, some of which have been extracted and published (see Background Sources). Others have been published in journals such as The NYG&B and the National Genealogical Society Quarterly.
Of almost greater value in New York than the federal are the state censuses, taken every ten years from 1825 to 1875, in 1892, and again in 1905, 1915, and 1925; pre-1825 state censuses and state copies of those for 1855 to 1905 were destroyed in the 1911 state library fire. Most of the censuses that have survived can be found with the county clerk, although some are with the county historian or in other locations. For a list of the whereabouts of these censuses, consult Marilyn Douglas and Melinda Yates, comps., New York State Census Records, 1790'1925, Bibliography Bulletin 88 of the New York State Library (Albany, N.Y.: 1981), which has some errors and omissions. (See their web page showing their availability of NYS census by county: [1]) The state library and the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society have microfilms of almost all the surviving state censuses. The New York Public Library has most microfilms for 1855 and for almost all of the surviving state censuses for the New York City and Long Island counties and Westchester County. Some NYS censuses are also available at the LDS Family History Centers[2] around the world. Check their catalog at the NYS county level.
Indexes have been prepared for some of the state censuses and are usually found with the county historian or at the county historical society. Some of these indexes are mentioned in the Douglas-Yates guide; others are listed in David Paul Davenport's 'The State Censuses of New York, 1825'75,' Genealogical Journal 14 (1985'86): 172-97 and in Laura LeBarron, 'Finding Aids at The NYG&B Library for New York State Censuses,' The NYG&B Newsletter 8 (1997): 11-13, 19-21.
The Douglas-Yates guide also shows the existence of the county copies of the federal censuses available locally, which are useful for checking against the federal copies as microfilmed by the National Archives. The state copies of the federal census perished in the 1911 New York State Library fire.
The 1825, 1835, and 1845 state censuses are similar to pre-1850 federal censuses in that only the name of the head of the household is listed, although there is valuable information about the composition of the household, its agriculture and commerce, and so forth. Beginning in 1855, every person is listed, with his or her relationship to the head of the household, and, if a native New Yorker, the county of birth is shown. Years of residency in the town or city in which enumerated are also given, as is citizenship status for adult males. The 1865 census dropped the years' residency column but added ones for parents of how many children and number of times married. It also listed active and veteran servicemen. Later state censuses provide similar information, although the schedules for 1892 listed only name, sex, color, age, country of birth, whether or not a U.S. citizen, and occupation. The date and court of naturalization for naturalized citizens was a feature of the 1925 census. For more details, consult the Douglas-Yates guide.
The surviving 1790 state census schedules for Albany County were compiled by Kenneth Scott in New York: State Census of Albany County Towns in 1790 (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing, 1975; reprint, Baltimore: Clearfield Co., 1991). In his work, Scott also compared these schedules with the 1790 federal census for Albany County.
At one time, the state library had some original census records, but these have all been returned to their original jurisdictions. For example, the schedules for Albany County are now in the County Hall of Records, 250 South Pearl Street, Albany, NY 12202.
