Dorinda Clark-Cole (born Dorinda Grace Clark on October 19, 1957) is a three-time Grammy Award-winning American evangelist and gospel singer. She is best known as a member of The Clark Sisters and as a daughter of pioneering choral director Mattie Moss Clark.
Clark-Cole was born on October 19, 1957, and raised in Detroit, Michigan, to the late Elbert and Dr. Mattie Moss-Clark. She began singing at an early age with her sisters Karen, Twinkie, Jacky, and Denise. The sisters sang in their father's church and usually performed songs written and composed by their mother. Clark-Cole, who is referred to as the "jazzy sister" of the group, helped develop what is known as "The Clark Sound", which often features high and fast melismas, riffs, runs, scats, and soulful growls. Dorinda attributes her fiery, convicting singing style to her mother, who saw the gift of singing and preaching in her at an early age. Back in the 1960s and 70s, when other children their age were playing outside, Dorinda and her sisters had to work on their familial harmonies. She says, “We made a lot of sacrifices. My mom was a stickler for making sure we rehearsed before we went out to perform. She saw the gifts and talents within us and started shaping and molding us. She taught us discipline along with how to use our gifts.” Dorinda sang lead on "Overdose Of The Holy Ghost", as well as on "My Redeemer Liveth", the B-side to The Clark Sisters' biggest single "You Brought the Sunshine".
Clark-Cole's self-titled solo debut Dorinda Clark-Cole, released in June 2002 on Gospo Centric Records/Zomba Label Group, won two Stellar Awards and a Soul Train Lady of Soul Award (Best Female Gospel Artist). The album featured the hit single "I'm Coming Out". Her second album, The Rose of Gospel, was released under the same label in August 2005. The album debuted in Billboard’s top 5 and garnered a Grammy Nomination for the Best Traditional Soul Gospel album and won 2007 and 2009 Stellar Award for the “Best Female Artist of The Year”. The live portions of both albums were produced by Asaph Ward, known for his work with Kim Burrell, who counts Dorinda as well as the Clark Sisters as a direct vocal influence.
After being pushed back from a prematurely stated date in fall 2007, Dorinda Clark-Cole's third solo CD, also released on Gospo Centric Records/ Zomba Label Group, Take It Back, was released on April 15, 2008. Producers Alex "Asaph" Ward, PAJAM, and Rodney Jerkins contributed to the project. Dorinda released a six-song (EP) album entitled In The Face Of Change on September 21. It included hit songs such as "Change" written by her son Jay Cole and "BAMM" which was a “Verizon Select”. Released on her own ministry label, "Harvestime Ministries", the album was never heard of until she announced it the day of its release. A video on YouTube has a preview of all of the new songs on the record. Her latest release, another solo project entitled I Survived with the hits "Back to You", and "He Brought Me", was released in August 2011 under a new label, Light Records. The project also consists of a duet titled "Thank You" with her sister Twinkie Clark.
Dorinda was featured on the title track of Kirk Franklin's Hero album.
In early spring 2009, Dorinda performed Nothing but the Truth for the Sojourner Truth unveiling on Capitol Hill for First Lady Michelle Obama and other officials.
As a member of the Clark Sisters, Dr. Cole won three Grammys in 2008. Live - One Last Time won the Best Traditional Gospel Album. Its album track "Blessed & Highly Favored" won the Best Gospel Performance as well as the individual Best Gospel Song. With the group she appeared nationally on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, ABC's The View, Bobby Jones Gospel, Lift Every Voice, Gospel Superfest, TBN’s Praise the Lord, The Stellar Awards and The Lady of Soul Awards.
Clark-Cole has been evangelizing and making hundreds of speaking engagements annually for over twenty years, along with her singing career and being a wife and mother. She is married to Elder Gregory Cole and together they have two children, Nikkia Cole-Beach and Gregory Jr. (Jay Cole). In March 2011, Nikkia and husband Deon Beach Sr gave birth to son Deon Beach Jr,. Dorinda's first grandchild whom she often publicly rejoices about. She ministers nationally as well as internationally in countries such as England, Japan, Germany, France, Korea and South Africa. She made history in South Africa, having been the first woman to minister in the pulpit to over 4,000 people.
In addition to being a recording artist and evangelist, Clark-Cole is a staple in the Church of God in Christ of which she is a licensed National Evangelist, assistant state mother for the Michigan North Central Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of the Church of God in Christ and Elect Lady of the COGIC's International Evangelism Department. She was an administrator and instructor at the Clark Conservatory of Music in Detroit (founded by Mattie Moss Clark in 1979) and is an administrator of ministry at the Greater Emmanuel Institutional COGIC, pastored by her brother-in-law, Bishop J. Drew Sheard.
Clark-Cole makes it known that she hasn’t always been at such a joyous place in her life by testifying about a very trying time in her life when she once contemplated suicide. She recounts, “At that time my mother was not with me to help me get through that rough time. We were always dependent on our mom because she was always there… I didn’t understand why it was happening to me…It was very devastating. And it caused me to go into a state of depression…I just couldn’t take it anymore and I got into my car and I began to drive to the river. I was about to drive my car off the bridge. And while I was right there…the enemy was speaking to me, so I had a war going on. I began to drive and accelerate up to 80 miles per hour. God spoke to me just as plain as day and said, ‘Dorinda, are you going to let everything that has been invested in you go down the drain?’ And when I heard God’s voice, I began to take my foot off the accelerator and the car started coasting right to the bridge. And the Lord whispered to me and said, ‘Peace be unto you.’ And that’s when I grabbed the steering wheel and I said, Lord I thank you. I began to weep and cry. So if it had not been for God keeping me right then I would have been doomed and consumed. I want it to reach those who are strung out on drugs. I want them to be able to hand it over to other drug abusers and say listen to it and have it bless their lives.”
She is the new host of TCT Network’s Dorinda Show, co-host of TCT’s Celebrate on the Road, former Stellar Awards host, guest judge on Verizon's "How Sweet The Sound" national televised competition, and the former spokes-model for Donna Vinci Clothing, and her “Rose Collection” is now distributed by Terra Mina Fashions. She has since partnered with MR. SONG, a fashion designer of Detroit, in creating The Bloom Collection, a couture collection of hat adorning accessories. She is national radio host of Serving Up Soul with Dorinda Clark Cole which syndicates to 50 affiliated radio stations. She is also the Founder and CEO of Lifeline Productions Inc., which holds an annual Singers & Musicians Conference. Through this conference it is her goal to educate a new generation of ministers of the importance of “keeping ministry in the music” by offering various activities including daily workshops and evening worship services featuring from artists whose ministries have gone beyond ministering in song. In September 2004 she received an honorary Doctorate of Divinity from Mt. Carmel Theological Seminary of Fresno, California.
Dorinda Clark-Cole says that if she did not have a career in music that she would be "dancing on Broadway", and her dream would be "to sing with Bette Midler, Cher and Celine Dion". She is currently represented by Keith Douglas, CEO of RKD Music Management in Los Angeles, California.

When people hear about IPv6-specific security issues, they frequently tend to rate this as an argument in favour of delaying or avoiding IPv6 deployment on their enterprise or campus network. Even without IPv6 being consciously deployed, however, some of the IPv6-related security issues were already introduced to most networks many years ago. The reason for this is simple: IPv6 is implemented in all common operating systems and enabled by default. We introduced hosts with these operating systems on our networks several years ago – be they clients on the office network or servers in a data centre or DMZ.
Since most, if not all, of today’s company networks are IPv6-enabled to a certain degree, they are attackable over IPv6. To make things worse, in contrast to IPv4, IPv6 brings along different kinds of autoconfiguration functionality, which can be misused. Network operators and security people who have neither basic IPv6 experience nor measures in place to detect IPv6-related attacks run a risk, and this risk is permanently increasing as the bad guys have already started to use IPv6. Bad guys are usually early adopters.
Let us look at some possible scenarios:
1. Rogue IPv6 router attracts traffic
In this scenario, the attacker has access to a local network segment. He is either an insider or has otherwise gained physical access to the network. Maybe he managed to compromise and take over one system on the network segment. He can now send periodic IPv6 Router Advertisements (ICMPv6 Type 134 messages) to the local network. All nodes on the network that have IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC) enabled – which is the default – will consequently configure global routable IPv6 addresses and a default IPv6 route to the attacker’s node. As a result, all former IPv4-only nodes on the network are now dual-stack nodes and have native IPv6 connectivity, with the attacker serving as the next hop.
2. Attacker bypasses IP based access control
Here the attacker wants to access a resource (in this case a database server) protected by IP-based access control (IPv4 ACLs). He again sends Router Advertisements in order to configure IPv6 addresses on the desired machine. He might then be able to access the system via IPv6 because this “second door” is not protected by ACLs. This example applies to all devices protected by IP-based ACLs with only weak alternative access protection or none at all “because nobody can access it anyway”.
3. Client bypasses firewall with IPv6 tunnel
In the third scenario, we have a user on the local network whose network knowledge is up to date. He wants to access a resource that is blocked according to the local firewall policy. Since this resource is available over IPv6 as well, he tells his web browser to use IPv6. The client node does not have native IPv6 connectivity, so it tries one of its IPv6 tunnel mechanisms that are enabled and can configure automatically. Given that the local firewall does not filter IPv6 traffic that has been tunnelled over IPv4 to an exterior tunnel gateway, this user can access the otherwise blocked resource.
Food for thought
These are just three examples that show how IPv6 can affect your network security, even though you have never consciously deployed IPv6. There are a number of others. The following questions may help you to assess whether your network security is at risk:
- Do you see IPv6 traffic on your network? (Monitoring)
- Are you sure your firewalls filter (tunnelled) IPv6 traffic?
- Do you have enough knowledge about IPv6 and its specific attacks to detect them?
- Do you rely on IP-based ACLs – which are ineffective for IPv6?
If you did not answer “yes” to the first three questions and “no” to the last one, then it seems you have a new item to add to your “to do” list.
5 thoughts on “IPv6 insecurities on “IPv4-only” networks”
Let’s not forget that the most common OS (Windows) has active 6to4, isatap and teredo tunnels as default. And disabling IPv6 on Windows will break things. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2549656 as an example.
Yes, that’s basically what the 3rd example is about. And yes, just disabling IPv6 can cause problems nowadays… And it’s not possible anyway, if you don’t control the clients (in a BYOD environment for example).
Curious about attack #2 – I thought Windows Firewall protected against this by default?
Hm, which part of the attack do you think is protected by default with the Windows Firewall? SLAAC? No! IPv6-ACLs? No!

All the automatic equipment are easy to use. Within seconds, we would have the reading. However if the failed to have a correct reading to the fluctuation of systolic or diastolic, it will automatically re pump itself until an appropriate reading is detected. Personally I would prefer the Manual Blood Pressure Monitor.
** Systolic = is an ancient medical term first understood as a gathering of blood and later contraction of the heart. More recently it is understood as a force that drives blood out of the heart and diastolic is the period of time when the heart refills with blood after systole (contraction).
**Diastole is the period during which the ventricles are relaxing,properly, the machine will then re pump itself).

HSBC: dim sum debt sales could reach HK$448bn in 2013
HSBC expects China's new leaders to push greater use of yuan from London to Taipei
Sales of dim sum debt may reach 360 billion yuan (HK$448 billion) next year as China's new leaders encourage use of the yuan in financial centres from London to Taipei, HSBC predicts.
Yuan bond and certificate of deposit issuance outside the mainland will rise from 263 billion yuan in the first 11 months of this year as cross-border trade settlement in the currency increases, HSBC, the leading underwriter of such debt, says.
Yields on dim sum debt have dropped 88 basis points since the end of last year to 4.64 per cent, according to a Bank of America Merrill Lynch index. That compares with an average yield of 2.61 per cent for firms worldwide.
Last week's approval for Bank of China's Taipei branch to clear trades in the currency and China Construction Bank's dim sum debt sale listed in London last month shows regulators are supporting the expansion of the global use of yuan beyond Hong Kong. Singapore, and possibly London, may also be permitted to clear yuan next year, Deutsche Bank analysts wrote last month.
"We're optimistic and are expecting a decent market next year," said Gina Tang, head of debt capital markets for Greater China at HSBC.
"The further growth of the offshore renminbi market and development in other centres including London and Taipei is actually beneficial for Hong Kong, as we will continue to be well positioned as the centre of most of the business."
Issuance of dim sum bonds and certificates of deposit will likely grow to between 280 billion yuan and 360 billion yuan next year, an HSBC report said last week.
About 860 billion yuan is in bank accounts around the world, according to Deutsche Bank, with yuan deposits in Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and London likely to rise to 1.25 trillion yuan next year.
Taiwanese companies and consumers may also be able to set up accounts in the currency after a pact signed between Beijing and Taipei in August.
The island will work to start clearing the currency within a month, Taiwan's central bank governor told lawmakers last week.
Bank of China's Taipei branch is now the sole bank that can clear transactions involving yuan offshore.
China Construction Bank sold the first yuan-denominated securities listed by a mainland company in London last month.
The bank raised 1 billion yuan of 3.2 per cent bonds due in November 2015.

Last night, I went to the wedding of my niece's daughter. (Did I mention that I have a "May-December" marriage?) What made this wedding sort of unique was that it was at the same hall Builder and I used for our wedding, Ateres Gashmius (again, all names have been changed to protect the guilty.) The wedding was...a wedding. No big surprise. Take standard wedding formula, plug in bride and groom, and there you are. Same halls, same snowbeast dress, tiara from Claire's Accessories and pancake makeup, same flowers, same food, same music. Same circle dancing to "Od Yeshama" played about 100 decibels over the tolerance of the human ear.
However, since the wedding was at Ateres Gashmius, it got me thinking about my own wedding.
Builder and I got engaged Erev Rosh Hashanah. The vort was Motzai Shabbos Chol Hamoed Sukkos. The event itself was the fourth night of Chanukah. That means I had ten weeks to prepare. Normally, a bride given only ten weeks would be in panic mode. How do I deal with all the details? However, when it became clear that my input was not required nor even particularly wanted, I ceased caring about the details. Moreover, it became clear that this wedding was more for Builder's benefit than mine (it didn't help that only five people showed up from my side.) So, my job was literally put on the dress and show up. And, even the dress was "something borrowed." As a result, I remember very little about my own wedding, except the sea of faces, most of them I didn't know and would never see again.
Had I been able to work my will, several things would have been different. For one, the wedding would have been much smaller--I would have only invited family and a few close friends. It would have been outdoors--say Prospect Park or maybe even Central Park. Set up a nicely decorated chuppah, maybe made with appliques or painted fabric in a clearing, and let the trees act as a natural mechitza. My gown would have been my own creation--maybe an Empire waist with an overskirt of lace, Regency puffed sleeves ending in a wide flare. And it certainly would not have been in December--both the dead of winter and the height of tourist season in NYC. As for the music, I would have gone more romantic and less raucous--say "Strangers In The Night," "The Way You Look Tonight," or some other romantic standard (Although, since no bandleader sings anything remotely secular, it was kind of a blessing that I didn't get those. Sinatra standards as instrumentals sound too much like elevator music. Besides, what makes the song is that famous Sinatra voice. Le sigh.) Even something classical would have been nicer.
However, I did have some say in some matters. I got to order purple yarmulkes for those guests who didn't have any. I did get to make my own veil (flower wreath, not glitzy tiara). I walked down the aisle to Pachelbel's Canon. And I did get to order the flowers--although the florist looked at me as though I was speaking ancient Sanskrit when I said I wanted something between Court of King Arthur and Lord of the Rings.
Well, one down, two more to go this winter. Now to order some fabric so my girls have something to wear besides their fundie jumpers to the next one.

Excitement is in the air as Microsoft has just announced its Xbox 360 Games with Gold releases for the month of February. The announcements are exciting people so much that people with 360’s who have been giving them the “red ring of death” might decide to spend some of their tax refund for Xbox 360 repairs, because as of right now these Games with Gold deals are not available for the Xbox One.
The great thing about Xbox 360’s Games with Gold is that as a qualifying Xbox Gold member you can download these games from Xbox Live for free. The only thing you have to pay attention to is the length of time you have to download the game, if you wait for too to download the game, or you will have to pay full price, which is $19.99 for Dead Island and $14.99 for Toy Soldiers: Cold War. If you do not have an Xbox Gold subscription this might be a good time for you to try Xbox Gold out, just for the two free downloads you will have access to this month.
The first game that will be available for download is Dead Island. Dead Island will be available from February 1st through the 16th. The game was originally released for the 360 in 2011 and its release to Games with Gold has been much anticipated. This game is a first-person action that is intensely focused on melee combat. Dead Island is an open-world zombie adventure game praised for its in-depth character development and for the gamers’ ability to customize a large number of weapons.
When Dead Island first came out in 2011 it received an 8.0 review from IGN despite the numerous technical issues it had. The technical issues have been resolved and the game now plays relatively flawlessly.
The second game set to be released for download in February is Toy Soldiers: Cold War. It will be available to download from February 16th through February 28th. As might be suspected from the title of the game, this game follows the storyline of the Cold War thus includes a countless number of U.S. and Soviet troops, combat vehicles, fighter planes, assault helicopters, and base defenses. The unique thing about this game is that you get to take control of all these things as toys, and not just any toys, but toys that look they came straight out of the 80’s!
Toy Soliders: Cold War was positively received upon its initial release in 2011 as well. IGN gave the game an 8.5 and millions of copies in its first year.
It is no wonder people are so excited about the releases this month; Microsoft is giving people one of the best line-ups Game of Gold has ever seen. Make sure to fire up that Xbox and make sure it’s working so you can get your hands on these games for free before the deal is gone. If you consol isn’t working find a Xbox 360 repair shop locally or online to get your console up and running before it is too late!

Bought 2,000 shares of Comfort Delgro (CDG) at $2.38 as my first tranche yesterday morning after putting it in queue on the previous night.
The counter has fallen below my target price for buy in recently and my first thought was maybe I should enter after their latest financial results are released on this Friday.
However I decided to do some study on their 3Q16 results.
In summary the 3Q results are not bad but not sterling either. In other words, the business remained quite stable.
Stable operating profit.
Net cash position.
Gearing remains low.
Capex was lower compared to 3Q15. This shows the company is putting effort for sustainable growth.
Diversified businesses including non-vehicular business such as 3rd party testing house, Setsco.
Decreased revenue from bus BU due to the new Bus Contracting Model.
Taxi BU will continue to face headwinds from Uber and Grab. But I trust CDG will take reactive measures to tackle this. Furthermore Uber and Grad drivers are required to get a vocational license by this year.
Also expected decrease in revenue from other BUs such as the bus station, automotive engineering services, inspection & testing services and car rental & leasing should be able to be offset by the increase in revenue from the rail business especially as riderships on NEL and DTL continue to grow!
Going to ride on NEL and DTL more frequent!
CDG share price as of point of writing is $2.43.
I probably got lucky as news came out yesterday on the mandatory requirement for private-hire car drivers from operators such as Uber and Grab to get vocational license.
Hopefully the latest results on this Friday would be favourably viewed by the market as well.
Good luck and cheers to all who are vested.


Okay. so I work for a company in chicago and we do data recovery. we got a very well equipped clean room. anyway. I took the platters and all out of my drive and took the casing and made a little mod. if you have the proper materials and the proper know how you can do this easily. OKay. so what you do is disassemble your drive in a clean room. take the case and drill a hole wide enough to fit a model rocket engine. I also placed a thin piece of foil to the hole. model rocket engine on the exterior. the piece of foil was to prevent residue from the rocket engine form making its way in unless i desired. now I made a little bracket to hold the rocket engine and everything. it uses an electronic ignition system which is activated by my adruino board. it also has outputs to control the arms of the hard drive as well as the motor. ofcourse some soldering was involved. but i tested this method and it worked marvelously. the ash flows into the caseing and the motor continues to spin at top rpm. meanwhile the arms slide back and forth on the platters. grinding the ash and carbon on the surface. therefore completely destroying all of the once readable surfaces in the drive. it also has a seperate power source. so it works regardless of wether or not the pc is powered on. uses 2 buttons on 2 different places in the case to complete the activating circuit. so there is no possibility of unintentional misfire. one button in the back and one under the removeable face plate of my antec900 gamer case. just rip off the front panel since its the type that pulls of easily and you gain access to the second button. Needless to say it got me out of alot of of trouble. I have plenty of aftermath pics and even a video of testing. and my control unit has the capability of being used with up to 6 hard drives. one of my proudest modifications. when you do the things I do you're saftey and lack of incrimination is you're number one priority. physical damage is the absolute best way to get rid of your unwanted data. I'll post links to pics and video on here in a reply when i get around to uploading it all.plus mayyyyyyyyybe plans.

Here’s a stained glass window on the Beth Israel Synagogue. I wanted to capture the essence of the Star of David, and I wanted to keep it a bit of a puzzle to encourage closer looking. It’s all angles and simple shapes. If I hadn’t told you what it was, would you have known? As an added bonus, look for the subtle refections in the glass.

We present the results of CCD UBV photometric and spectroscopic observations of the open cluster NGC 225. In order to determine the structural parameters of NGC 225, we calculated the stellar density profile in the cluster's field. We estimated the probabilities of the stars being physical members of the cluster using the existing astrometric data. The most likely members of the cluster were used in the determination of the astrophysical parameters of the cluster. We calculated the mean radial velocity of the cluster as V-r = 8.3 +/- 5.0 km s(-1) from the optical spectra of eight stars in the cluster's field. Using the mml : mrow > U - B vs B - V two-colour diagram and UV excesses of the F-G type main-sequence stars, the reddening and metallicity of NGC 225 were inferred as E(B - V) = 0.151 +/- 0.047 mag and [Fe/H] = -0.11 +/- 0.01 dex, respectively. We fitted the colour-magnitude diagrams of NGC 225 with the PARSEC isochrones and derived the distance modulus, distance and age of the cluster as mu(V) = 9.3 +/- 0.07 mag, d = 585 +/- 20 pc and t = 900 +/- 100 Myr, respectively. We also estimated the galactic orbital parameters and space velocity components of the cluster and found that the cluster has a slightly eccentric orbit of e = 0.07 +/- 0.01 and an orbital period of P-orb = 255 +/- 5 Myr.

Australia is home to some of the world’s most livable cities – four of the world’s top 10, to be precise. The challenge is to maintain this standard, particularly in the face of a number of threats. For example, dozens of oil spills have polluted Queensland shores and a massive cement spill smothered a creek in a state conservation area north of Sydney. Also, some scientists and environmentalists see this month’s election of Tony Abbott to prime minister as a “great leap backwards.”
One agency in the country’s southeast state of Victoria is dedicated to preserving the habitat and holding polluters accountable. Environment Protection Authority Victoria (EPA Victoria) is in the middle of a five-year plan to remedy past pollution issues and tackle current ones, while shaping a responsible environmental future.
Keeping cities green with SAP CRM
“EPA aspires to create a healthy environment that supports a livable and prosperous Victoria,” the organization’s Web site stated. “By effectively regulating pollution in Victoria, we strive to deliver clean air, healthy waterways, safe land and minimal disturbances from noise and odor for Victorians.”
Agency officials routinely investigate reports from the public about oil or dead fish in waterways, as well as airborne discharges and odors from industries. The officers document incident sites by taking water and soil samples, field measurements, photographs, and more. “We have a lot of data … some 400,000 pieces of data coming into the organization,” EPA Victoria CEO John Merritt told SAP TV. “We’ve got, I think, around 17,000 outside organizations interacting with us.”
See how EPA Victoria works to improve the life of Victorians:
EPA Victoria’s system generates action plans to educate licensees about their compliance obligations, and it continuously updates the status of investigations for viewing by any EPA employee. This complex process relies on a highly sophisticated IT system: SAP CRM with SAP Investigative Case Management, part of SAP Urban Matters, which provides new solutions for EPA’s specific processes. “You have to go to something which is tried and proven,” Merritt said. “And that’s why we went down this path with SAP.”
Each action report is a complex process with many single steps. And EPA Victoria has other responsibilities, including licensing, approvals, and reviewing reports from businesses.
“SAP provided one platform for 58 different business requirements that we utilize,” Jason Borg, director of strategy and support for EPA Victoria, told SAP TV. “It really helps streamline our processes.”
Melbourne the world’s most livable city
The Economist Intelligence Unit named Victoria’s capital, Melbourne, the world’s most livable city for the third year in a row last month. Environment is one of EIU’s criteria, and SAP Urban Matters is helping EPA Victoria uphold Melbourne and the rest of the state as a great place to live.

People: Sash, Eric and myself
Feelings: On this warm and humid Friday afternoon, we thought it was a perfect opportunity to try Smush, the new "NY Deli of Desserts." We walked over 10 blocks only to find that the place was not yet open. Truly devastating. In order to calm our nerves and satisfy our ice cream cravings, we found ourselves across the street at 'Wichcraft Ice Cream Kiosk, located the south side of Bryant Park near the carousel.
Mr. Collichio's ice cream pop up has been back since this Spring. According to Midtown Lunch, they source their ice cream from Van Leewen, one of my favorite artisan ice cream shops that is freshly made with local antibiotic free milk.
Sash's chocolate & mint chip ice cream'wich ($4.25) was a definite winner. The ice cream actually contains some mint leaves, and as you bite into this refreshing treat, you can actually see and taste them. Oddly, however, when I ordered a scoop of mint chip ice cream, it came as plain vanilla with some mint chips. There were no signs of mint leaves.
Eric's peanut butter and strawberry ice cream'wich ($4.25) was also a hit. He thought it had a nice blend of flavors with a perfect texture-- not too soft, not too hard.
As much as I love Coolhaus' ice cream sandwich, it is indeed difficult to finish without harming the couture with melted creaminess. 'Wichcraft's ice cream sandwiches are more compact, firm and easy to handle. You could be carrying your black and white Celine tote and not have to worry about making a mess with this one.
We later found out that Smush had their grand opening at 4:30pm. It sounds like we'll have to have another ice cream Friday in Bryant Park.

In this, the third part of the HK ID guide, we are covering the basic semi-automatic variants imported into the United States by HK in Sterling Virginia. In later parts to this series, SAR will cover the clone imports and other manufactured variations of the HK line. SAR would like to thank Jim Schatz of HK Federal Operations for his assistance in this part of the series, and his and HK’s help in general. As an aside, the SL8-1, a semi-automatic version of the G36 rifle with a special ten round magazine has just been approved for importation. We were unable to obtain photos before presstime, but SAR will be doing an in-depth report on this.
BBl length 4.5″ O/A length 13″ Weight 4.4 Lbs mag capacity 15 or 30 rounds. Utilizes the HK recoil operated, delayed roller locked bolt system.
The SP89 is a 9mm semi-automatic pistol that is frequently used with a registered HK conversion sear to create an MP5K clone
Cal: 9mm x 19 weight: 6.43lbs OA length: 34.59″ Bbl length: 16.54″
The two basic buttstocks on the HK semi autos are the fixed stock (A2) (Shown) and retractable stock. HK94 markings are on the top of the receiver, to the front of the sight. The HK94 is a true semi-automatic in that it uses a clip on trigger group. Probably the most desirable of the HK semi’s, the HK 94 has been the host gun for many registered sear and registered receiver conversions to the MP5 format (Not by HK, of course). It is the host gun for the clone MP5’s, MP5SD’s, and pre-SP89 MP5K’s.
Cal: .223 weight: 7.75lbs OA length: 35.5″ Bbl length: 16.13″
The HK93 is the semi-automatic version of the HK33 rifle. This was used as the host rifle for registered HK sear conversions to HK33, HK53, and 53k variants in the US.
Cal: .243 or .308 weight: 7.5lbs OA length: 42.8″ Bbl length: 19.6″
Manufactured in .243 and .308, this hunting rifle used the HK delayed roller locked bolt system and polygonal rifling. Registered HK sears are not usable in this series.
Cal: .308 weight: 8.37lbs OA length: 39.96″ BBl length: 17.71″
The SL7 is the German Army Reserve training rifle. The sights approximate those of the G3 rifle. It has a unique carbine stock and shorter barrel than the HK770.
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 9.5lbs OA length: 40 1/4″ Bbl length: 19″
The HK91 was the flagship of HK rifles- it is the semi-automatic version of the famous G3 rifle. Registered HK sear installations were done to many of these, and it is the host rifle for G3, HK51, and HK 21 conversions in the US.
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 10.9lbs OA length: 42.5 ” Bbl length: 19.7″
This is the original “Thumbhole stock” version of the HK91 rifle. These were HK91’s that had the barrel sleeved to get rid of the frightening threads, and a new stock and forend added to bring them into compliance with the 1989 ban on importation of scary “Assault” rifles. The “1” was stamped on to make it “911”.
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 10.9 lbs OA length: 42.5″ Bbl length: 19.7″
The SR9 is the final version of the HK91 “Import friendly” rifle that was imported from 1989 to 1994.
Cal: 7.62 x 51mm OA Length: 45.87″ BBl length: 23.62″ weight: 14.11 lbs.
The MSG90 Sniper Rifle is one of the finest semi-automatics in the world, but it uses a swing down lower and is considered a machine gun. Standard accessories include the 10x Hensoldt scope, Stanag mount, and a crisp 3 lb trigger pull with adj. Shoe.
The barrel is threaded to accept a flash hider or suppressor. In addition, the A1 has a hooded front night sight and 1200 meter adjustable rear sight. A brass deflector is standard on the A1, just to the rear of the ejection port.The MSG90A1 was originally referred to as the MSG90-DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle).
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 17.86lbs OA length: 47 5/6″ Bbl length: 25.59″
The PSG1 Sniper Rifle is a highly refined version of the HK91 rifle. It uses a clip on lower so is a true semi-auto in the US.
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 10.6 lbs OA length: 42.5″ Bbl length: 19.7″
The “import friendly” SR9T is the target version of the SR9 rifle. It utilizes the PSG1 trigger group and the MSG90 buttstock.
Cal: 7.62x51mm weight: 10.9lbs OA length: 42.5″ Bbl length: 19.7″
The “import friendly” SR9T-C was the Target / Competitor version of the SR9 rifle. It utilizes the PSG1 trigger group and buttstock.

In the US, according to statistics, 50% of marriages end up in divorce.
Despite advancement in technology and science, the subject of marriage and love seems to be as confusing as ever. News of affairs, divorces, separations fill up magazine and tabloids front pages. Families break apart and marriage becomes a ‘disposable’ item like the plastic utensils one throws away after use.
Hellen Chen’s “The Matchmaker of the Century” takes on the subject of marriage in a tough modern world.
Having had her own journey of transformation, she now counsels men and women on how to gear themselves up for marriages in current society and make it last.
Bestselling Author Hellen Chen and Matchmaker was invited on TV Show San Diego Living in California to talk about what is a perfect match and why dating is a waste of time.
Hellen also addresses the topic of finance in a relationship and whether money is needed for having a loving relationship.

Occasionally I will revisit some of my previous posts to examine how changing some elements will improve the message. In this case, I am revisiting my first illustration friday submission. This time it is a vector image stressing the flare tool. At the moment I will not consider the reflection of the sun in the water. I imagine I am losing some of the emotional impact of the first submission for an effect. With practice, I hope the loss will not be as dramatic. I am pleased enough with the result to make this my first masthead.
Submission for illustration friday best viewed at full zoom or larger. I wanted to, "restrain" myself to keep a, "check" on my artistic, "expression." I think I will attempt additional submissions on this topic but on a different slant.
Friday, March 03, 2006
I hope I get this in before the new topic is posted. I actually did most of the work for this image on Friday, February 24th. I sketched my hand upside-down; scanned the image; an traced the scan in Illustrator CS2 (after some experiments with color blends). I could probably do more to the image but I need to close this and move on to another project. This image and the two simple submissions are examples of my efforts to gain some mastery with color blends.


Incredible Planes From The Future
The NASA Solar Flapper is an unconventional concept for a plane that would use solar power and flapping of the aircraft’s “wings” to propel itself up and forward.
The above plane is a concept designed for Japan Airlines by industrial designer Luigi Colani.
This ambitious personal aircraft design is targeted to reach speeds of over 150mph with a range of around 50 miles. The Puffin would be “hover-capable, electric-powered, super-quiet” and capable of vertical takeoff and landing.
Unveiled in mid-July, the creators of this Airbus concept plane say it could potentially become the standard for air travel by the year 2050. The plane features ultra-long and slim wings, a “U” shaped tail, and a more “intelligent” body to boost performance and efficiency.
This futuristic flying machine looks like it was taken right out of a sci-fi movie. However, the saucer is not just space-age, but eco-friendly too. It was designed by the CleanEra project, led by Etnel Straatsma of Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands.
The Icon A5, called the “ultimate joyride,” can take off and land on water or dry land, and when its 32-foot wings are folded, it can fit comfortably into a large garage.
The Terrafugia Transition, dubbed the “world’s first flying car,” recently received the go-ahead from the FAA. It can fly at a speed of 115 MPH, has a 460-mile range, and doubles as a car when its wings are folded up. The Transition will set you back close to $200,000 when it finally hits the market.
The SAX-40 is a joint project between engineers at The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Cambridge University in England. This aircraft seats 215 passengers and emits just 63 decibels during takeoff, compared to a whopping 150 decibels by a conventional airliner.
The Aeroscraft ML866 boasts a vast 5,000 square feet of interior room for the ultimate luxury experience. This “flying yacht” reaches a top speed of 120 knots and has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities.
A team of engineers at MIT have been awarded a $2 million contract by NASA to design a quieter and more efficient aircraft that could be released as soon as 2030.
Hey take a look at this road-able aircraft that is under development. They are expecting to have a flying model by the end of the year and are taking buyer deposits.

Cor. Most sweet voices
Better it is to die, better to starve,
Than crave the hire, which first we do deserve.
Why in this woolvilh Gown should I stand here,
To beg of Hob and Dick, that do appear,
Their needless Voucher ? Custom calls me to't-
What Custom wills in all things, should we do't,
The dust on antique time would lie unswept,
And mountainous error be too highly heapt,
For truth to o'er-peer. Rather than fool it so,
Let the high Office and the Honour go
To one that would do thus.- I am half through;
The one part suffer'd, the other will I do.
Three Citizens more.
Here come more voices.
Your voices for your voices I have fought,
Watch'd for your voices ; for your voices, bear
Of wounds two dozen and odd : battels thrice fix
I've seen, and heard of: for your voices, have
Done many things, some less, some more :
- your voices : Indeed, I would be Conful.
i Cit. He has done nobly, and cannot go without any honest man's voice.
2 Cit. Therefore let him be Consul, the Gods give him joy, and make him a good friend to the People. All, Amen, amen. God save thee, noble Consul.
[Exeunt. Cor. Worthy voices !
Enter Menenius, with Brutus and Sicinius.
Men. You've stood your limitation: and the Tri-
Endue you with the people's voice. Remains,
That in th' official marks invested, you
Anon do meet the Senate,
Cor. Is this done?
Sic. The Cuftom of Request you have discharg'd:
The people do admit you, and are summond
To meet anon, upon your approbation.
Cor. Where? at the Senate-house?
Sic. There, Coriolanus.
Cor. May I change these garments ?
Sic. You may, Sir.
Cor. That I'll straight do : and, knowing my self
Repair to th' Senate-house.
Men. I'll keep you company. Will you along ?
Bru. We stay here for the people.
Sic. Fare you
well. [Exeunt Coriol. and Men.
He has it now, and by his looks, methinks,
'Tis warm at's heart.
Bru. With a proud heart he wore
His humble Weeds : will you dismiss the people ?
Sic. How now, my masters, have you chose this
1 Cit. He has our voices, Sir.
Bru. We pray the Gods, he may deserve your
2 Cit. Amen, Sir: to my poor unworthy notice, i
He mock'd us, when he begg'd our voices.
3 Cit. Certainly, he flouted us down-right.
i Cit. No, 'tis his kind of speech, he did not mock
2 Cit. Not one amongst us, Lave your self, but
He us'd us scornfuily: he should have shew'd us
His marks of merit, wounds receiv'd for's Country.
Sic. Why, so he did, I am sure..
All. No, no man saw 'em.
3 Cit. He faid, he'd wounds, which he could shew
And with his cap, thus waving it in scorn,
I would be Conful, says he: aged Custom,
But by your voices, will not so permit me ;
Your voices therefore : when we granted thatz,
voices thank you Your most sweet voices now you have left your
voices, I have nothing further with you. Wa’n't this mockery?
Sic. Why, either, were you ignorant to see't ?
Or, seeing it, of such childish friendliness
To yield your voices ?
Bru. Could you not have told him,
As you were leffon'd; when he had no Power,
But was a petty servant to the State,
He was your enemy ; Aill spake against
Your liberties, and charters that you bear
I'th' body of the weal: and now arriving
At place of potency, and sway o'th' State,
If he should still malignantly remain
Fast foe to the Plebeians, your voices might
Be curses to your selves. You should have said,
That as his worthy deeds did claim no less
Than what he stood for ; so his gracious Nature
Would think upon you
your voices, and Translate his malice tow'rds you into love, Standing your friendly lord.
Sic. Thus to have said,
As you were fore-advis'd, had touch'd his fpirit,
And try'd his inclination ; from him pluckt
Either his gracious promise, which you might,
As cause had call'd you up, have held him to ;
Or else it would have galld his surly nature ;
Which easily endures not article,
Tying him to aught; so, putting him to rage,
You ħhould have ta'en th' advantage of his choler,
And pass'd him unelected.
Bru. Did you perceive,
He did sollicit
in free contempt,
When he did need your loves ? and do you think,
That his contempt shall not be bruising to you,
When he hath power to crush? why, had your
bo dies No heart among you ? or had you tongues, to cry
Against the rectorship of judgment?
Sic. Have you,
Ere now, deny'd the asker? and, now again
On him that did not ask, but mock, bestow
Your su'd-for tongues ?
3 Cit. He's not confirm'd, we may deny him yet.
2 Cit. And will deny him : I'll have five hundred voices of that found. i Cit. I, twice five hundred, and their friends to
Bru. Get you hence instantly, and tell those friends,
They've chose a Consul that will from them take
Their Liberties; make them of no more voice
Than dogs that are as often beat for barking,
As therefore kept to do so.
Sic. Let them assemble ;
And on a safer Judgment all revoke
Your ignorant election : enforce his Pride,
And his old hate to you : besides, forget not,
With what contempt he wore the humble Weed ;
How in his suit he scorn'd
you : but
Thinking upon his services, took from you
The apprehension of his present portance ;
gibingly, ungravely, he did fashion After th' inveterate hate he bears to you.
Bru. Nay, lay a fault on us, your Tribunes, that We labour'd (no impediment between) But that you must caft your election on him. Sic. Say, you chose him, more after our commands
Than guided by your own affections ;
And that your minds, pre-occupied with what
You rather must do, than what you should do,
Made you against the grain to voice him Consul.
Lay the fault on us.
Bru. Ay, spare us not: fay, we read lectures to
How youngly he began to serve his Country,
How long continued ; and what stock he springs of,
The noble House of Marcius ; from whence came
That Ancus Marcius, Numa's daughter's son,
Who, after great Hostilius, here was King :
Of the same house Publius and Quintus were,
That our best water brought by conduits hither.
And Cenforinus, darling of the people,
(And nobly nam'd so for twice being Censor)
Was his great Ancestor.
Sic. One thus descended,
That hath beside well in his person wrought
To be set high in place, we did commend
To your remembrances; but
have found, Scaling his present Bearing with his past, That he's your fixed enemy, and revoke Your sudden approbation.
Bru. Say, you ne'er had don't, (Harp on that still) but by our putting on ; And presently, when you have drawn your number, Repair to th' Capitol. All. We will so; almost all repent in their election.
Bru. Let them go on :
This mutiny were better put in hazard,
Than ftay paft doubt for greater :
If, as his nature is, he fall in rage
With their refusal, both observe and answer
The vantage of his anger.
Sic. To th’ Capitol, come;
We will be there before the stream o'th' people :
And this shall seem, as partly 'tis, their own,
Which we have goaded onward.

Rami co-founded Tasteaholics with Vicky at the start of 2015 to master the art of creating extremely delicious food while researching the truth behind nutrition, dieting and overall health. You can usually find him marketing, coding or coming up with the next crazy idea because he can’t sit still for too long. His favorite book is The 4-Hour Workweek and artist is Infected Mushroom.
If you don't eat meat — or any animal products, for that matter — or if you have a food allergy, you can replace anything on the meal plan with foods that have a similar calorie count and provide the same nutrients. For example, instead of eating half a cup of tuna, you can eat about 2/3 cup of tofu. Instead of eating an egg at breakfast, you can drink a cup of soy milk. On day two of the military diet, cottage cheese substitution ideas include 15-20 almonds. Almonds work to sub out the slice of cheddar cheese, too. And instead of peanut butter, you can spread almond butter or sunflower butter on your toast for breakfast of day one.
These types of back-and-forth weight fluctuations can contribute to disordered eating, Kizer says, or can worsen an already unhealthy relationship with food. “I think this diet appeals to people who have issues with portion control and with binge eating,” she says. "And in many cases, what they really need is a lifestyle coach or a professional counselor to help them get to the bottom of those issues."
Ah, quinoa. This healthy, rich-tasting whole grain/seed has so many nutritional riches that it puts refined grains like white rice to shame. Tofu is the perfect sidekick because it’s both waistline-friendly (per bite, tofu tends to have about one-third the calories of meat and poultry) and heart-friendly (tofu has no artery-damaging saturated fat or cholesterol).
A 2012 study also showed that people on a low-carb diet burned 300 more calories a day – while resting! According to one of the Harvard professors behind the study this advantage “would equal the number of calories typically burned in an hour of moderate-intensity physical activity”. Imagine that: an entire bonus hour of exercise every day, without actually exercising. A later, even larger and more carefully conducted study confirmed the effect, with different groups of people on low-carb diets burning an average of between 200 and almost 500 extra calories per day.
Are you trying to shed those extra kilos? The ketogenic diet is a low carb diet, moderate in protein and high in healthy fats. The primary goal of the ketogenic diet is weight loss. The diet helps to bring your body into a metabolic state which is known as the ketosis. Ketosis occurs when the body has run out of its glycogen (which is basically sugar) stores so it needs to find another source of fuel. When this occurs your liver begins to process fat into ketones which become the body's main fuel source. Some of the foods that one can enjoy on a keto diet are avocado, cheese, sour cream, Greek yoghurt, chicken, fatty fish and full-fat milk. Just like every coin has two sides, in the similar way every diet has some pros and cons. The following article will explore some of the advantages and disadvantages of this fad diet, keto diet.
It usually takes three to four days for your body to go into ketosis because you have to use up your body's stores of glucose, i.e., sugar first, Keatley says. Any major diet change can give you some, uh, issues, and Keatley says he often sees patients who complain of IBS-like symptoms and feeling wiped out at the beginning of the diet. (The tiredness happens because you have less access to carbs, which give you quick energy, he explains.)
A gigantic Farmer’s Market-style salad with a variety of fresh seasonal produce and fresh herbs, such as fresh baby arugula and radicchio, and red wine vinegar sassed up with a little horseradish. Enjoy visiting your local Farmer’s Market every week and asking the vendors, “What’s new and tasty this week? What would make great ingredients for my salad?”
Unintentional weight loss may result from loss of body fats, loss of body fluids, muscle atrophy, or even a combination of these. It is generally regarded as a medical problem when at least 10% of a person's body weight has been lost in six months or 5% in the last month. Another criterion used for assessing weight that is too low is the body mass index (BMI). However, even lesser amounts of weight loss can be a cause for serious concern in a frail elderly person.
You’re transitioning. Your body is equipped to process a high intake of carbs and a lower intake of fat. Your body needs to create enzymes to be able to do this. In the transitional period, the brain may run low on energy which can lead to grogginess, nausea, and headaches. If you’re having a large problem with this, you can choose to reduce carb intake gradually.
According to Paquette, the Military Diet does have one advantage over other weight loss plans: unlike other diets like Keto, which tend to eliminate entire food groups, the military diet includes a mix of protein, carbohydrates, and fats, albeit in tiny amounts. But he says the guidelines for the diet are simply too general to be considered healthy. For instance, breakfast on the first day simply lists "toast," without specifying whether it's whole-wheat or white.
“This warming—or cooling—beverage serves a dual purpose. Not only is it full of antioxidants and other healthy phytochemicals, but it has the benefit of slightly increasing your metabolism,” says Harris-Pincus. Sipping tea in the evening instead of snacking, or trading in your PSL for a cup of green tea will lower your calorie intake and help you burn a few extra calories. Just be sure to keep it unsweetened.
I’ve heard of the military diet and have contemplated it, but haven’t tried it as of yet. As I get light-headed very easily, this may NOT be the diet for me to try at all. I know a couple of people who have done it and benefited from it, but they said it was hard in the beginning. For me, the cons outweigh the pros. I just can’t risk any health issues arising from it.
As chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) advances, about 35% of patients experience severe weight loss called pulmonary cachexia, including diminished muscle mass. Around 25% experience moderate to severe weight loss, and most others have some weight loss. Greater weight loss is associated with poorer prognosis. Theories about contributing factors include appetite loss related to reduced activity, additional energy required for breathing, and the difficulty of eating with dyspnea (labored breathing).
The military diet is a variation of the ever-popular three-day diet, a crash plan of "fill-in-the-blank" foods to eat if you want to lose weight fast. These diets typically claim that you can lose about 10 pounds in three days to a week if you follow their blueprint to the letter. The meal plans are usually extremely basic and calorie-restrictive, because let's face it, that's how you lose weight.
I used to be 100 pounds heavier than I am now. My eating habits were out of control and pretty much the epitome of mindless. I am A.D.D., I have two kids under four, and I work full time, so eating without constant distractions just doesn't happen. But over the years I’ve learned what it takes for me to lose my weight... and most importantly, keep it off.

2013 looks promising for retail real estate, report says
The new year will be "slow but promising" for retail real estate nationwide predicts Jones Lang LaSalle.
Planned store opening are at a four-year high, according to a new report from the commercial real estate firm. Leading the way will be dollar stores and restaurant chains.
Nashville-based Dollar General Corp. (NYSE: DG) plans to open 650 stores in the next 12 months. Meanwhile, Family Dollar and Dollar Tree plan to open 500 and 350 stores, respectively. Over the next two years, Subway hopes to grow by 5,000 stores, and Five Guys Burgers and Fries expects to open many as 1,200 new locations.
Off-price department stores, such as Nordstrom Rack, Saks Off 5th and Bloomingdale's Outlet, will help fill empty spaces in power centers. "Discounted name-brand merchandise continues to garner high demand, department stores are continuing to aggressively expand their outlet stores," states the report.
Companies downsizing their footprints, especially in urban areas, will offset the expansions. "Office Depot, for example, cut its urban store size to one-fifth of its suburban model," states the report. "City Targets are half the size of their suburban counterparts."
Video game retailers are expected to begin "a long cycle of decline," due to the growth in online gaming, smart phone games and digital sales. GameStop recently announced plans to close 200 locations after posting a $624.3 million net loss in the third quarter.

Separating brothers doesn't sound like a happy story. But for Anias and Jadon McDonald, it's the best news they could have hoped for.
A pair of conjoined twin boys have begun new, separate lives after 27 hours of surgery in the United States.
Nicole and Christian McDonald were faced with an agonising decision when twins Anias and Jadon were born 13 months ago joined at the head.
Trying to separate them carried the possibility of death or long-term brain damage. But studies also showed that 80 per cent of twins joined at the head die of medical complications if they're not separated within two years of birth.
The operation, led by Dr. James Goodrich at Montefiore Medical Center in New York City, lasted 16 hours. More surgery was then required to rebuild the babies' skulls.
Mr and Mrs McDonald burst into tears upon seeing Jadon emerge first with his head wrapped in gauze. About five hours later, Anias was reunited with his family.
It's only the 59th craniopagus separation surgery to ever be performed since 1952.

Year Purchased: 2009
About the owner: Originally from California we have taken an educational tour of the country for my wife to receive her Masters from Tufts and PhD from Duke and now she is currently a professor at Bowdoin College. I am a stay at home Dad taking care of my elementary-age son and daughter. I am a CPA by training but use it only sparingly now. Though we will never be seen as real 'Mainers,' we have adopted Maine as our favorite state. We want to help those not from here to experience Maine as if you had a family member or friend living here.
Why the Owner Chose Brunswick:
We bought our historic 1879 home on School Street to be within walking distance of Bowdoin College and all that downtown Brunswick has to offer. School Street is a special neighborhood of professors, artists and writers that we fell in love with. It has beautiful brick sidewalks and neighbors that pride themselves on their gardens. We wanted to have an apartment that we could rent out to other visiting faculty or international musicians traveling to the Bowdoin International Music Festival. We would like to open up our apartment to Summer guests to enjoy Maine the way we do.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment:
We love our proximity to all the shops and restaurants on Maine Street. In the morning, you can enjoy Wild Oats bakery at the end of our street for some yummy baked goods or a cappuccino, and in the evening take in a movie at the one- screen Evening Star Theater in the quaint down-town 'mall'. We have a beautiful yard where we grow our own blueberries, blackberries and roses. I love the smell of our local coffee roasting company, 'Wicked Joe's,' roasting coffee during the day. I love the tree lined street of Park Row with the huge Captain Houses. I love that we are so close to the ocean and many amazing coves and harbors and yet still in the center of town that is thriving with shops, restaurants and things to do and see. Join in on some of our neighborhood events or let us point you in the right direction for an adventure off the beaten path.

Sales tax gains aid in planning city budgets
A rebound in retail sales this year could help ease at least some of the annual budget planning pain for municipalities in Garfield County, which are set to begin hashing out details for 2015 spending starting in early October.
Glenwood Springs City Manager Jeff Hecksel still cautions that, while he is optimistic about a 4.8 percent increase in sales taxes through July this year for the city, it’s difficult to plan budgets based on that until a more reliable trend is established.
“I am happy to report that things seem to be a little better than they had been, with the return of sales tax gains,” Hecksel said. “We do hope that trend continues.”
But sales tax revenues remain somewhat “volatile,” as evidenced in 2013 when the city barely met its projected 2 percent increase in sales tax revenues by year’s end.
This year’s budget was also based on a 2 percent sales tax increase, as will next year’s, Hecksel said.
Across Garfield County, proposed city and town budgets are expected to be made available to the public by Oct. 1, as required by state law and the city charters of both Glenwood Springs and Rifle.
Rifle City Council will likely begin reviewing 2015 budget figures at its regular Wednesday meeting next week. Rifle had a general fund budget this year of about $8 million.
Hecksel plans to give his introductory budget presentation to the Glenwood City Council during a pre-meeting work session on Thursday, Oct. 2. This year’s general fund budget for Glenwood was $11.8 million. That figure is expected to increase for next year, Hecksel said.
Likewise, the Carbondale Board of Trustees last week heard an overview of town finances to date, along with department budgeting goals and objectives for the coming year.
The Carbondale board is set to begin reviewing the proposed 2015 budget in earnest starting with an Oct. 7 work session to discuss the recreation and police department budgets. Carbondale has a general fund budget this year of about $7 million.
The smaller towns of New Castle, Silt and Parachute are on a similar track with their budget planning.
Glenwood electric costs increase
A particular concern going into 2015 for the city of Glenwood Springs is the ongoing increase in costs to run the city’s electric utility, Hecksel said.
The city was hit with a 12 percent wholesale electric increase in April from provider the Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska, and just recently learned of another 6.5 percent interim rate increase.
“And we’re expecting another one in April of next year,” Hecksel said. “It’s not a good thing when we get these off-cycle rate increases, because it does throw our budget off.”
The city was able to pass along the earlier wholesale increase with a customer rate hike in July, but will have to absorb the interim increase until rates can be revisited again next summer.
“Our challenge will be to make sure we still have the cash flow going into next year, but we know our expenses are going to be more than our revenues,” he said.
As for the city general fund, Hecksel said he anticipates some increases based on an increase in demand for city services.
“Things have picked up, but our staffing is still at the same level as it was when we made cuts during the downturn,” he said.
Hecksel said the city was able to make up what had been about a $890,000 general fund deficit coming into this year with a combination of controlling expenses, pulling in more sales taxes than were projected, and some reserve spending.
Among the big questions for City Council to address will be how to meet a $1 million capital projects funding pledge in each of the next three years to help pay for the Grand Avenue Bridge replacement project.
At its meeting next week, City Council will set a budget work session schedule for October. A formal public hearing on the 2015 budget will be scheduled in November.
Carbondale weathering 133 work
The good news for Carbondale as it prepares its 2015 budget is that sales taxes are also up in that town, and the general fund balance remains healthy, according to Town Manager Jay Harrington.
That, despite the disruptions to business for much of the year and costs to the town related to the Highway 133 construction, he said.
“We have been using the general fund balance to support all capital work and most fleet purchases for the last few years,” Harrington said. The town’s share of the Highway 133 work is also paid for from general fund reserves.
The net impact is that the town is projecting a $4.3 million fund balance at the end of 2014, down from nearly $5.6 million at the beginning of this year, he noted.
That figure may change depending on reimbursements from Garfield County, which is also paying for a portion of the Highway 133 work. A Garfield Federal Mineral Lease District allotment for the project was also recently increased, Harrington said.
For 2015, the town will also need to reign in fund balance spending for park maintenance, which means the town has not been able to save for future parks projects, he said.
The town’s recreation sales and use tax fund balance has also been depleted in recent years, resulting in some items being paid for out of the general fund and no new park projects for the town.
The good news for Carbondale is that sales taxes are up 8.9 percent for the year through July, and the town brought in almost $300,000 more in FMLD funds than budgeted. The town also has a healthy streetscape fund balance, Harrington said.
Following the Oct. 7 meeting, Carbondale trustees are scheduled to meet Oct. 14 to discuss public works and utilities spending; Oct. 21 to review capital projects; Nov. 4 for a general budget work session; and Nov. 18 and 25 to discuss community funding requests.
Rifle funds ‘healthy,’ but tight
Meanwhile, Rifle City Council has tentatively set aside six dates in October to discuss the city’s 2015 budget with staff, City Manager Matt Sturgeon said. Each meeting will be publicly noticed, as required by law, and open to the public, he said.
Sturgeon said the city has been “weathering the storm fairly well since the financial downtown in 2009.”
“However, most rural areas, with some exceptions like resort communities, are still struggling more so than urban areas,” he noted.
He pointed out that communities in Colorado rely heavily on sales tax revenue to fund operations, and rural areas in particular are struggling because state property tax formulas and Internet retail sales make it difficult for small retail businesses to survive.
“Small merchants struggle to compete with online vendors not collecting sales tax and who don’t face 29-percent property valuation when computing commercial property tax,” Sturgeon said.
Rifle has seen an uptick in overall retail sales this year over 2013, similar to the municipalities on the east end of the county. Through July, Rifle sales taxes were still running about 4 percent ahead of last year.
The general fund, which pays for everyday city operations and things like police and street maintenance, also has a healthy reserve, Sturgeon said.
The Parks and Recreation fund is also healthy, he said, but has seen a decrease in revenues with the large number of capital improvements over the last eight years.
That is leading the city to focus more on operations and maintenance for the coming year, with less money available for capital projects, Sturgeon said.
He said the city’s water and wastewater utilities are having a more difficult time for many reasons. The slowdown in construction has caused the customer base to remain flat, which makes paying for maintenance and regulatory compliance more challenging.
With or without growth, the utilities must replace failing pipelines and comply with state and federal regulations, Sturgeon noted.
“We have a creative bunch of staff who consistently perform at high levels with the resources this community can afford,” he said.
The Rifle city budget will be considered at a formal public hearing in November, where any member of the public is free to address council. Budget and finance information is also available on the city’s website, at http://www.rifleco.org.
New Castle, Silt hold steady
The town of New Castle expects to see only a moderate “upkick” to its budget for 2015, mainly driven by retail sales tax and construction activity.
“We expect to see about a 2 percent increase in retail sales tax,” said Town Administrator Tom Baker. “Property tax will stay flat, as there is no reassessment until 2016 and we’re expecting building activity to be up slightly with a lift in construction.”
One of those construction projects will be the senior housing project next year at Clubhouse Drive and Castle Valley Boulevard, which will generate building permit and water tap fees.
“We’re looking at a modest upkick in economic activity in town, but no big change, nothing dramatic,” Baker said.
The New Castle Town Board will be holding budget hearings through the month of October, the first and third Tuesdays and a special meeting from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18.
For more information, call New Castle Town Hall at 984-2311.
The town of Silt expects to see a 4.5 percent increase in its budget for 2015, which will include the hiring for an additional police officer, bringing the total number of officers to seven.
Budget meetings, which are open to the public, will be held through October. The enterprise/ special revenue fund will be discussed on Oct. 13, the water treatment plant on Oct. 15 and the general fund only on Oct. 27.
“All of our funds are pretty much in line with 2013,” said Town Administrator Pamela Woods. “We’re also going to have 2.5 merit increase for town employees, with board approval.”

Both whippets are so fond of dessert - which they are not allowed to have. We try to stick to their diet of wet dog food and rice in the morning and regular dog food at night. In between they get one snack. That is, a dried piece of chicken, a bone to chew on, dog biscuits, or any other kind of dog treat. Is it because of their curiosity that they are completely hypnotized when we eat dessert? They sit in front of us, their eyes wide open and focussed on one point: the treat.. That may be chocolate mousse, yogurt, pudding or even a baked apple stuffed with brown sugar and hazelnuts. They almost start to drool in their fixation. As soon as we have finished our dessert, we can hear a sigh from both whippets. The look in their eyes is sad. We have to be real strict with them: no treats that are meant for humans. Sorry girls, it's in your best interest.
