Sunday's Mayor of London Skyride was probably the greatest cycling event ever seen in London, and I use the word 'greatest' both in terms of the volume of people that took part, and in terms of the organisation and spirit with which the event was held.
With many programmes like Skyride, a commercial partner may put up some money and pay lip-service to getting itself involved, but it is to Sky's credit that it sees the success of Skyride as a very personal endeavour. Sky has put a tremendous amount of time, money and work into creating a series of rides that the nation can be proud of. From officials at British Cycling, to Mayor Boris himself, there is nothing but praise for the satellite broadcasting company.

I'll be honest, I am naturally prejudiced to Rupert Murdoch-owned businesses. I have never subscribed to Sky and I do not read the Sun or the Times – but even I have questioned my position in light of the good that seems to be coming from Sky's involvement with cycling in the UK.
There was, though, one blot on the Skyride experience copybook in London, but it wasn't something Sky or Mayor Boris or British Cycling could do anything about: the rail service.
The journey into the capital on Sunday morning was easy, perhaps too easy. There were no special 'services' or requirements for people with bikes, which came as a welcome surprise because in many people's experience, special 'services' for cyclists on British railways tend to mean 'restrictions'. The one recognition of the fact a huge number of bicycles would be using Southern Rail's trains came when we reached Victoria Station and a woman on the ticket barrier asked all those with bikes what time they expected to be returning home.
But the problems only really started when people began trying to leave London. I headed home half an hour before the official finale to Skyride, so I cannot say what happened as the full rush of cyclists tried to leave the city. But even at the relatively calm time of 3.30 there were already murmurs of disquiet.
Firstly, when we reached the train a Southern Rail employee stopped all those with bikes from boarding, saying that we had to pick up a special 'boarding pass' for our steeds before we could get on. When the lady in front of me dared to suggest it would have been nice to have been told this on our inward journey – perhaps at the same time as we had been asked what time we were planning on leaving – the same man rather officiously told her: "You were all told when you came in." Well this lady hadn't been told, and neither had I.
To enjoy the benefits of one of these fabled 'boarding passes' we had to join a queue at Victoria's information desk, where we were presented with a blank train ticket on which was scrawled some numbers. "It's the only hassle we've had all day," one Skyrider behind commented.
With 'boarding pass' finally in hand, riders were finally allowed to get on the train, but even there our singling out for 'special' treatment wasn't over. "Can cyclists please make sure that their bikes are away from the opposite doors when we arrive at Clapham Junction," the driver droned over the public address system. Then, immediately, there was another, slightly agitated voice. "And can people with bikes please make sure they are not blocking the aisles," the train's guard added.
With bikes not allowed to block the doors or the aisles it rather left the question where to put them: on the overhead shelves perhaps? "Ever feel like you're not wanted?" some wag in a luminous Skyride bib commented nearby.
After the smiles and friendliness we had felt all day riding around London's most famous roads, it was a bit of a shock to the system. Perhaps as cyclists we were taking it too personally, after all, the train company was 'just doing its job.' But I couldn't help thinking that its job would have been better done had it put its effort into laying on extra carriages with guards' vans for the huge amount of bikes, which it had known for months would be leaving London from three o'clock onwards on Sunday, September 20.
Perhaps next year, as well as close London to road traffic, Mayor Boris might also consider closing all train routes into the city, and then hand over control of the railways to Sky. That way cyclists will be sure of both arriving, and departing, among friendly faces.

Visiting Colorado's National Parks
There are many great mountain getaways in Colorado, but the perfect place to start is the diverse national parks that this state has to offer.
Rocky Mountain National Park
At a mere two hour drive from Denver, Rocky Mountain National Park is the most accessible of Colorado's four national parks. Rocky Mountain offers something for every outdoor enthusiast. Beautiful alpine lakes, towering mountains, and gushing waterfalls can all be viewed on a drive through the park, but more adventurous people can take a hike on the hundreds of miles of trails through Rocky Mountain. The most popular destinations in the park are Trail Ridge Road, Bear Lake, and the difficult 14,255 foot Longs Peak.
Mesa Verde National Park
Located outside of Cortez in the southwestern tip of Colorado, Mesa Verde is a very remote national park that contains some of the best preserved American Indian dwellings in the United States. The ruins were originally built in the 13th century by the Ancestral Puebloans to take advantage of the changing seasons. The largest and most famous of these dwellings is called Cliff Palace and is a must see for all visitors. A trip to the more remote and less crowded Weatherill Mesa is a great option for anyone staying in the area for more than one day.
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park
Black Canyon of the Gunnison contains 12 miles of a deep, narrow canyon cut by the Gunnison River. In this short stretch of river, the water drops an average of 43 feet per mile, creating some treacherous yet beautiful rapids. The most popular visitor destination in the park is a scenic drive on the south rim of the canyon, which offers breathtaking views of the precipice below. Hiking trails lead to the bottom of the canyon, while the sheer rock of the canyon offers great technical climbing for visitors. The rapids in the Gunnison River are also a popular destination for only the most experienced kayakers.
The Great Sand Dunes National Park
Nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the Great Sand Dunes offers over 19,000 acres of park space and contains North America's highest sand dune, which rises 750 feet above the San Luis Valley floor. Visitors can freely hike the dunes and can even bring a sled or snowboard for a quick ride down some steeper dunes in the park. The desert-like sand dunes seem like an anomaly sitting so deep in the Rocky Mountains, but it makes for some unforgettable vistas.

SEMI-NEWS: A Satire of Recent News, November 23, 2014 Edition
President's Usurpation of Legislative Authority Hailed by Democrats
President Obama's decision to enact immigration reform legislation that Congress has refused to enact inspired some lavish praise from fellow Democrats.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) called it "a courageous first step. President Obama's determination to take a politically unpopular position so soon after voters elected a Republican dominated Congress stakes out new ground in the battle for control over the government and policy."
"It's important that we build upon the President's innovation and transform our nation from the archaic plan of trying to extract policy from a fragmented legislative body, where no one has a mandate for governing, to a more modern structure where the will of the one man elected to represent all of the people prevails," Pelosi said. "At this turning point in our history I am hoping that Congress will get behind the President's leadership and give it an ex post facto endorsement by passing a bill codifying his decision."
Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz) praised "this bold step in the right direction," but also called upon Republicans "to pick up their half of the burden by enacting the President's policies into law. To leave the President alone on a limb exposes him to criticism that he has acted outside his authority. Well, President Lincoln acted outside his authority when he suspend the right of habeas corpus, but Congress later legalized what he had done. Instead of focusing on President Obama's so-called 'lawlessness,' I'm hoping the current GOP leadership can be as patriotic as their Party's leaders were in 1861."
Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin (Ill) lamented that "the President's actions do not go far enough. His vow to legalize 4 to 5 million illegal immigrants still leaves tens of millions of current illegal residents at risk, not to mention the tens of millions more we cam expect to stream across our southern border in response to this current iteration of amnesty."
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) insisted that "inaction by the Republican-controlled House of Representatives forced President Obama to take the law into his own hands. If they had simply enacted the legislation he wanted he wouldn't have had to enact it by himself. They're the ones responsible for him stepping over the line."
White House communications director Jennifer Palmieri dismissed fears that Obama's action on immigration shreds the Constitution. "The President has been modifying the Constitution for nearly six years now," she pointed out. "For the GOP to go nuts over this latest modification makes no sense."
In related news, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson predicts that a resumed surge of illegal immigration can be expected. "When we compare the poverty of Latin America with the wealth of the United States, the attraction should be obvious," Johnson observed. "As word of the success of the earlier waves of immigrants—they're not being deported, they're getting access to a wide array of public services and benefits unavailable where they came from—filters back, more can be expected to make the one-way journey."
President Cites "Higher Authority" for Immigration Executive Order
In the face of nearly two dozen videos of him saying he lacked legal authority to unilaterally enact immigration reform, President Obama went ahead and did so, citing a "higher authority."
"As President of the United States, I felt myself hemmed in by the limitations placed on the office by the US Constitution," Obama admitted. "As a human being, though, I could not bear the continuing injustice inflicted on the people who have entered this country illegally."
"My dilemma was how to reconcile the guidelines of an aging framework for a nation's government and the call of my conscience," Obama explained. "The idea that doing the right thing could be impeded by an unworkable process was unbearable. In the end, I felt that freeing these unfortunate people from their predicament was what God wanted me to do. So, I did it."
"The President's notion that his interpretation of what God wants him to do takes precedence over his obligations under the Constitution and our laws is the path to tyranny," Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) contended. "It's the same 'divine right' argument that kings used to use in order to fend off limits on their power in the era before the American Revolution established representative democracy as our form of government. The damage that President Obama's retrograde revolution would do to our freedom far outweighs any good that might come from his claimed humanitarian motives."
Tired of Hearing about Gruber
The American people are "tired of hearing about Gruber," according to White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest. Video tapes of MIT Professor Jonathan Gruber, a key architect of the Affordable Care Act (also known as Obamacare), have been doing major damage to the Administration's credibility over the past two weeks. In the videos, Gruber is repeatedly shown describing voters as stupid and gloating about how Democrats used this stupidity to deceptively enact the ACA.
Earnest warned the media to drop the issue "because, frankly, the President is tired of hearing about it. These tapes and the alleged deceptions they portray happened years ago. The events Dr. Gruber speaks of in them are over and done. The ACA is the law of the land now and no amount of Monday-morning quarterbacking is going to change that."
"The only relevant issue is whether the ACA is good policy," Earnest maintained. "If it's good policy, and the President is confident it is, what does it really matter what tactics were used to get it implemented?"
Earnest expressed confidence that "this, like all the other phony scandals the GOP has been concocting, will die down and disappear from everyone's radar screen before too long. Everyone just needs to chill and let the President rule the nation, as he was elected to do."
Sharpton Disputes Tax Bill
The IRS claim that Rev. Al Sharpton owes more than $4 million in back taxes was challenged by the Reverend.
"My share of the reparations the US Government owes for slavery has not been taken into account," Sharpton argued. "The humiliation, the suffering, the oppression, and murder of African-Americans that has disgraced this country for over 400 years is a debt that can never be fully repaid."
"Instead of harassing me, the government should be making a good-faith effort to try to make payments on this unpayable debt," Sharpton suggested. "Then, after 400 years we can reassess to see how much is still owed."
Why Is Teaching Anal Sex in the Chicago Public School Curriculum?
Parents of students attending Chicago's Andrew Jackson Language Academy were shocked to discover that 5th graders are slated to study "the pleasures of anal sex."
Chicago Public Schools spokesman Bill McCaffrey characterized the parents' reactions as "excessively dramatic" and "not well thought out. It's our job to help prepare our students for life in the real world. Teaching them the skills needed for safe sex is at least as critical a part of our job as teaching them how to read."
"Sex is a topic of universal interest to students," McCaffrey asserted. "What we teach them about this topic will likely have more impact than what we teach them about history or science. So, I won't be apologetic about our efforts along these lines."
"The inclusion of anal sex in the curriculum is a simple acknowledgment that traditional heterosexual encounters are not the only type people engage in," McCaffrey added. "To not include this possibility would be discriminatory and would convey an impression that non-traditional interactions are less acceptable."
DOE Says AP Classes Must Be Racially Ballanced
The South Orange-Maplewood School District in New Jersey was told by the US Department of Education that the racial imbalance in its Advance Placement (AP) courses was discriminatory because minorities are under represented among the students enrolled in these classes. AP courses are intended for college-bound graduates and typically entail heavier workloads and more difficult assignments.
US Secretary of Education Arne Duncan brushed aside arguments relying on student interest and ability as "insufficient to overcome the goal of racial equality. For the school to say that minorities are over represented on the school's athletic teams and that somehow counterbalances their under representation in these academically challenging AP courses is a non-starter with us."
"Ideally, all races ought to be proportionately distributed throughout all school activities," Duncan argued. "We can't permit a student's preference for being an athlete rather than a scholar determine which classes he or she ends up in. If the school needs to 'dumb down' its AP courses in order to accommodate the lesser academic abilities of minorities, then that is what they must do."
Rather than trying to "square the circle," the South Orange-Maplewood School District has opted to discontinue AP. "The DOE's notion that everything must be racially balanced is impossible to achieve," said acting Superintendent James Memoli. "Dumbing down an AP course to achieve an ideal racial mix would be idiotic."

The fledgling group being set up to represent independent estate and letting agents is preparing a formal complaint about Purplebricks based on what it claims to be "misleading advertisements."
The Charter for Independent Estate and Letting Agents - which hasn't yet formally launched but has held preliminary meetings to establish its structure - says its founding members are making "final preparations" for the lodging of such a complaint, initially with Purplebricks itself.
A statement from CIELA issued last evening said that the complaint was "in particular that claiming savings when comparing a no-sale, no fee model versus an advertising fee is recklessly misleading."
CIELA says if Purplebricks does not itself take "remedial action" then the issue will be taken to the Advertising Standards Authority.
Estate Agent Today has asked to see a copy of the complaint from CIELA when it is completed.
A statement from Purplebricks this morning says: "CIELA sounds like a sensible initiative for the independent agents - we wish them well".
CIELA - which holds its next founders' meeting next week, ahead of a formal launch scheduled for March 1 - says it is also unhappy with the government's pledge to ban letting agency fees imposed on tenants in England.
"CIELA's view is that this is an overreaction by Shelter and the government to the exploitative behaviour of a small number of rogue agents, and a sledgehammer to crack a nut which will have adverse unintended consequences" says a statement from the organisation, which says it is to lobby its members about "whether they feel enough is being done to combat the looming threat of the ban."

How to Grow Amaryllis Bulbs in Glass Containers
Amaryllis (Amaryllis belladonna) can reach 1 to 2 feet tall. The bulbous plant grows well in full to partial sunlight and thrives in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 to 11. Leafless, red stalks produce lily-like flowers featuring light to dark pink or white petals. After blooming, amaryllis produce several long, strap-shaped leaves. The plant is vulnerable to aphids, spider mites and caterpillars. Force amaryllis bulbs into bloom by exposing them to water in a glass container or glass forcing jar. This method will deplete all of the bulb's nutrients, however, so it will never bloom again.
Pour water into the lower portion of a glass forcing container. Fill a glass container with washed gravel or stones if you do not have a glass forcing container.
Set the bulb in the forcing container or on top of the stones, and adjust the water so it touches the bulb's base. Place stones or gravel around the bulb, leaving the top half of the bulb exposed.
Put the container in a sunny, warm area and rotate it occasionally so it will grow evenly.
Keep the water level so it touches the base of the bulb, making sure it never goes lower or higher than the base of the bulb. Change the water when it turns cloudy.
Move the container to a darker, cooler location when buds begin to bloom, typically six to eight weeks after planting. Press three pieces of florist clay around the bulb to prevent stalks from falling over. Discard the bulb after it blooms.
Things Needed
- Gravel or stones
- Florist clay
- Do not use bulbs that are damaged or have soft spots.
- Substitute gravel or pebbles with marbles.

The BVB attacker is being heavily linked with a move to Bavaria but the 25-year-old's representative insists that there have been no talks with the German champions
The agent of Borussia Dortmund star Marco Reus says he has not spoken with anyone from Bayern Munich about a possible transfer to the Allianz Arena.
The Germany international is under contract until 2017 but has been linked with a number of clubs this summer, including the Bundesliga champions.
Bayern president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has repeatedly hinted at a move for Reus, causing uproar at Signal Iduna Park by publicly claiming that the 25-year-old's buyout clause will drop from €35 million to €25m next summer.
However, the forward's representative, Dirk Hebel, has moved to reassure Dortmund fans by revealing that he has not yet received any approach from the Bavarians.
"We had no contact with Bayern," Reus' agent told Bild.
Dortmund's sporting director, Michael Zorc, also stated that the club will be doing everything to hold onto Reus.
"[We will] definitely try to keep him long term," he told Sport1.
"Marco is not only a hugely important player for us because of his athletic performance, but also in his role as a poster boy.
"He is Dortmund-born and a figurehead for this club."
Reus joined Dortmund from Borussia Monchengladbach in 2012 for a reported €17.1m, penning a five-year contract with the club.

Kenya & South Africa: A tale of two, diverging, countries
Two prominent sub-Saharan economies are showing "swiftly diverging fortunes" due to their respective political and economic circumstances, according to Mace, the UK-based consultant and construction firm that recently acquired stakes in companies in each country.
Kenya is enjoying increasing growth and confidence after a contested electoral process that stretched from August to October last year resulted in peaceful victory for incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Less fortunate is South Africa, where growth is low-to-stagnant, and where the new President Cyril Ramaphosa is caught between the imperatives of economic reform and winning an election next year, says Mace.
The company made the comments in its latest tender cost update for Sub-Saharan Africa, released 10 August.
Mace has been active in Africa, acquiring a stake in Kenyan quantity surveyor YMR in October 2017, and a stake also in MMQS, a South African quantity surveyor, in 2016.
In Kenya, its report said, the eventually successful transfer of power in last year's elections renewed confidence in the government, which bodes well for long-term economic stability and, consequently, its markets.
"As the construction market heats up, the main challenge will be finding financing as the government battles high public debt," Mace said.
At 5.5%, Kenyan GDP growth is forecast to be well above the Sub-Saharan average in 2018 and is expected to remain strong, trending at just under 6% for the medium term, said Mace.
Slower inflation in 2018 allowed the central bank to lower interest rates by 0.5% so far to 9.5%, aiding the economy's expansion, Mace observed.
In contrast, South Africa is still struggling with uncertainty. "The government is stuck between two contradictory objectives – reforming the economy to give confidence to investors, and maintaining popular support in the run up to the 2019 election," Mace said.
It added: "Whilst slightly recovered from the dismal growth of 2017, the 1.5% South African GDP growth anticipated this year is unlikely to fuel a significant recovery in construction demand."
More widely, Mace said Sub-Saharan Africa will see strong average growth over the next five years, propelled by the "tailwinds" of rising commodity prices, Chinese investment, and the pull of infrastructure needs.
In Kenya, Simon Herd, managing director for MaceYMR, said: "With Kenyan construction projects being won in the renewed confidence after the elections, tender prices are recovering to pre-election levels. However we believe the real acceleration will be seen in 2019 when work won after the election comes through to market."
Less optimistic is Mandla Mlangeni, director for MMQSMace in Kenya, who said: "In South Africa, with activity levels slow to pick up despite improved confidence, we are seeing construction firms failing as the pipeline of government projects looks increasingly unreliable. Despite growing costs, tender prices will continue to hold at current levels due to the low levels of demand, seeing some erosion in margins."

Children's Liturgy of the Word (CLOW)
CLOW takes place at the 9 AM and 11 AM Sunday liturgies every 2nd and 4th weekend of the months.
Children in Grades 1 – 5 are encouraged to process from the main church to a secondary site (usually our Community Room)to continue the Liturgy of the Word portion of the Mass specifically for children. Experienced catechists break open the Word (1st Reading, Responsorial Psalm, 2nd Reading, and Gospel) then do an inter-active homily with the students. This makes scripture so much more meaningful to our young people. Finally they say the Children's Creed, pray their Intentions and then join us once again in church for the Liturgy of the Eucharist portion of the Mass. They are sent home with a flyer which reflects the homily so that parents can discuss what the children remember on their ride home.

Thursday, April 7, 2011Posted: 10:25 a.m. Updated: 3:19 p.m.
By Brett Ballantini
Before the home opener, outfielder Lastings Milledge was designated for assignment, as the pitching-pressed White Sox called up reliever Jeff Gray.
The way we played the last couple of games and the way the pitching has been used, we didnt want to overuse anyone and then all of a sudden, June or July, we regret it," manager Ozzie Guillen explained. "Thats the reason we did it.
Guillen agonized over how and when to tell Milledge, who he had grown fond of during spring training, during which the 25-year-old made the Opening Day roster as a non-roster invitee.
Personally, it was very hard for methats the hardest thing you can do, Guillen said, who admitted that he was having trouble looking Milledge in the eyes as he talked with him. When you send someone down and it has nothing to do with his performance, thats something. I was on the plane thinking all flight how I was going to handle it.
Milledge told CSNChicago.com relatively early in spring training that he would accept a minor-league assignment from the White Sox if he didnt make the team, and was eager to learn from some of the first mentors hed ever encountered, including Juan Pierre and Paul Konerko.
He handled it very well, Guillen said. I talked to Milledge about the problem we have. Unfortunately, thats part of the game. Its one of the hardest talks I had with any player.
As for Gray, he scuffled in the Cactus League but pitched well during his short stint in AAA Charlotte, earning the nod when the White Sox found themselves short of arms.
Theres a need for a pitcher because of the extra-inning games and some of the other things that have been going on, said pitching coach Don Cooper. We need another guy, and he was the guy chosen. He had a sideline two days ago, so he's ready to go He threw the ball well and he had good stuff in spring training. He can give us innings.

Shadows Chasing Ghosts are Trey Tremain (vocals), Danny Green (bass) Danny Coy (drums), Matt Jones (guitar & vocals), Chris Broadhurst (guitar).
Since their inception in 2008, London's Shadows Chasing Ghosts have been plotting a revolution. Their mix of razor sharp guitar work and anthemic melodies has seen them attracting more and more devotees to the band.
In 2008 SCG started the buzz with their self released EP 'Never Get a Wolf's Attention By Pulling On It's Tail, and followed that in 2009 with their first release on Small Town Records, 'Searchlights', which let to their debut album, "The Golden Ratio", which was recorded at Outhouse Studios by legendary producer John Mitchell (Architects, Enter Shikari You Me At Six, Funeral For A Friend). The band returned to Outhouse in April to record their second full-length release, entitled 'Lessons'.
SCG has embraced the true DIY work ethic, and achieved an amazing amount in 4 short years. They have got in the van and lived on the road, from numerous lengthy UK & European tours to a run of Australian dates. They have played headline shows to sold out venues up and down the country and were rated highly enough to share the stage with bands such as Bury Tomorrow, WHile She Sleeps, Finch, Blessed By a Broken Heart, Glamour Of The Kill and Polar.
As a result of all this, SCG have secured themselves as a fixture on the UK touring scene and staked their claim as ones to watch. Since then they have released two singles "Resist" and "Lose the Attitude", which have both fared very well in the rock charts.
Shadows Chasing Ghosts recently released their new album 'Lessons' through Small Town Records, which is available now in all good online and retail stores.

A candid former British Prime Minister Tony Blair stands by his and the Bush administration's decision to pursue the Iraq war, even as he expresses regret for the lives lost in the conflict.
"You can't not have regrets about the lives lost," Blair said. "I mean, you would be inhuman if you didn't regret the death of so many extraordinary, brave and committed soldiers, of civilians that have died in Iraq, or die still now in Afghanistan. And, of course, you feel an enormous responsibility for that, not just regret."
Fresh food that lasts from eFoods Direct (Ad)
In an interview aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week" with host Christiane Amanpour on the topic of his newly released memoir "A Journey," Blair offered a complex appraisal of the Iraq war, but suggested that the post-Sept. 11th environment made it unacceptable to take a risk by allowing Saddam Hussein to remain in power.

The Rockbridge Area Recreation Organization (RARO) has raised the funds to transform 2.5 acres of Lexington City property into new practice fields for year-round youth sports. The project will officially begin this Monday with a groundbreaking ceremony at 11 a.m. on site and open to the public. The Annex is beside the current Brewbaker Field Sports Complex located at 198 Wallace Street.
RARO serves hundreds of young athletes every year throughout Rockbridge County. Due to a high and growing demand, the organization has a shortage of space available for teams to practice. The Brewbaker Field Annex expansion will help solve that issue, including in the project a diamond for baseball and softball as well as a multipurpose field to be used for football, lacrosse, and soccer.
"We're very excited to get this project going," said RARO executive director John Trudgeon. "This is a much-needed facility for our community's young athletes. Big thanks to the local organizations who have provided generous contributions to help make this possible."
The renovations will cost about $180,000 to construct the diamond, plant grass on the field, install drainage and irrigation systems, and build a chain-link fence around the perimeter. RARO plans to have the fields open for use by spring of 2019.

Book Review
Book It: Transportation Literature – Fall Semester
In Hal Hardaway's Alexandria (VA) garage sits both a Triumph TR-3 and Hal's ERA Cobra. While distinctly different, both speak to an earlier, simpler time and that era's earlier, much simpler mechanisms.
The appeal of automotive nostalgia is well documented, and that appeal is mightily enhanced by the contributions of authors Dave Friedman (Cobra), Randy Leffingwell (Porsche) and Matthew D. Plunkett (Boston Whaler). Here, then, are their books:
Where were you in '62? If you were in Venice, California you might have tripped over Carroll Shelby's new space on Princeton Drive, where series production of Shelby's new Cobra had begun. In Shelby American Up Close and Behind the Scenes, author and photographer Dave Friedman takes us back – way back – to a supercharged era when a retired driver could drawl his way into a partnership with Ford Motor Company.
Obviously, what appears simple – the installation of an American V8 into a British sports car chassis – really isn't, and once you've done it you need to both sell it and race it. In racing, Shelby and his team were wildly successful, while showroom reaction to the original 260 and 289 Cobras was lusty, albeit necessarily limited. In a comparison not unlike that of today's Alfa 4C and Porsche's Boxster, the Cobra was clearly more visceral than the Corvette, but also clearly more one-dimensional. Its successor, the 427 Cobra, remained one-dimensional, but all relevant dimensions were exponentially larger.
Friedman's photos remain evocative, while the narration is both informative and pleasantly conversational. And in a coffee table format, its 224 pages and $50 cover price are well worth the price of admission. With Cobras fetching big money, and continuation Cobras bringing real money, a few hours spent with Carroll Shelby – via Mr. Friedman – is inexpensively compelling.
In 1948 Harry Truman ran for his own presidential term, the U.S. initiated the Marshall Plan for European recovery and – not incidentally – the Porsche family launched its own automobile. And despite the seventy-year gap between then and now, you'll find more in common in Porsche's initial 356 and today's 911 than you will between Truman and Trump. In author Randy Leffingwell's Porsche 70 Years: There is No Substitute, Leffingwell provides an exhaustive overview of the company's beginnings, its race successes and – of course – its evolution into the luxury marque we know today.
Whether as an automotive enthusiast or enthusiast of history, the Porsche story is compelling, and Leffingwell's documentation – with the very real help provided by both his research and extensive photography – supplies a can't-put-it-down narrative. At one point the late '40s seem a long time ago, but within the context of Porsche's evolution it might be yesterday. The 356 survivors you still see, and those knowing of the 356 see its iconic footprint within every 911.
There are, of course, literally hundreds of volumes devoted to Porsche and its history. If you can own just one, there's a good argument to be made for Randy Leffingwell's latest, $60 entry.
In a crazy coincidence, Porsche's 356 is known (given its inverted, wholly organic shape) as the bathtub, while the first Boston Whaler, introduced some ten years after the first Porsche, is known as the 'blue bathtub'. And that's but one of many gems found within the pages of Unsinkable: The History of Boston Whaler. There, author Matthew D. Plunkett documents the riptide of development that created the singular – and singularly successful – boat company, and the impact it has made on the boating industry in and around the world.
In a manner not unlike Porsche, VW or Saab, the founders of Boston Whaler took what was known about the personal boating industry and turned it on its head. Once the boats were launched, a distinctive marketing voice followed. And while 'unsinkable' had been associated with boating since 1912, Boston Whalers would inject safety into the boating discussion more forcefully than anything – or anyone – since 1912. If you are a boating enthusiast, check out these reviews of the best trolling motor battery to find the right one for you.
Like many products we review, Boston Whalers are too expensive for most incomes. But if you enjoy putting money into long term investments, few will provide the payoff of a Boston Whaler purchase. And to better understand where your money is going, Unsinkable: The History of Boston Whaler is – you guessed it – a whale of a good start.

Manx: Bringing a language back from the dead
- Published
Condemned as a dead language, Manx - the native language of the Isle of Man - is staging an extraordinary renaissance, writes Rob Crossan.
Road signs, radio shows, mobile phone apps, novels - take a drive around the Isle of Man today and the local language is prominent.
But just 50 years ago Manx seemed to be on the point of extinction.
"If you spoke Manx in a pub on the island in the 1960s, it was considered provocative and you were likely to find yourself in a brawl," recalls Brian Stowell, a 76-year-old islander who has penned a Manx-language novel, The Vampire Murders, and presents a radio show on Manx Radio promoting the language every Sunday.
The language itself has similarities with the Gaelic tongues spoken in the island's neighbours, Ireland and Scotland. A century ago, "Moghrey mie" would have been commonly heard instead of good morning on the island.
"In the 1860s there were thousands of Manx people who couldn't speak English," says Stowell. "But barely a century later it was considered to be so backwards to speak the language that there were stories of Manx speakers getting stones thrown at them in the towns.
"I learnt it myself from one of the last surviving native speakers back in the 1950s."
Recession in the mid 19th Century forced many Manx residents to leave the island to seek work in England. And there was a reluctance among parents to pass the language down through the generations, with many believing that to have Manx as a first language would stifle job opportunities overseas.
There was a decline in the language. By the early 1960s there were perhaps as few as 200 who were conversant in the tongue. The last native speaker, Ned Maddrell, died in 1974.
The decline was so dramatic that Unesco pronounced the language extinct in the 1990s.
But the grim prognosis coincided with a massive effort at revival. Spearheaded by activists like Stowell and driven by lottery funding and a sizeable contribution (currently £100,000 a year) from the Manx government, the last 20 years have had a huge impact.
Now there is even a Manx language primary school in which all subjects are taught in the language, with more than 60 bilingual pupils attending. Manx is taught in a less comprehensive way in other schools across the island.
In an island where 53% of the population were born abroad, it's perhaps surprising that there seems to be as much enthusiasm among British immigrants for Manx language as there is among native Manx people.
"These days it's actually come-overs' like me [the local term for people who have come to the island from other parts of the British Isles] who have more interest in Manx than the locals," says Rik Clixby, a music blogger who moved to the island a decade ago from Middlesbrough in order to marry his university sweetheart.
"It's never going to be at the point where you will hear a whole pub full of people talking in Manx," says Clixby. "But it's becoming more high profile. I'm really interested in learning the language and it's good to see articles now being written in Manx in the local newspapers - not that I can understand more than a few words.
"But it seems to be more of a passion among people who have come here from elsewhere. 'Come-overs' like me are looking for a cultural identity and, now they've found one here, are particularly attached to it."
Donna Long, a lifelong resident of the island, has four sons who all attend the Manx-language school. She thinks that having her children learn Manx as well as English is a hugely positive experience for them.
"Our friends think that it's a slightly eccentric decision to send all our boys there but they all really enjoy it," she says.
"The best thing is that it will hopefully unlock their brain to learn other languages easily too. They were all completely bilingual in Manx and English by the age of six.
"I don't think Manx will ever be useful outside of the island but I certainly think that in terms of getting jobs, if they do stay on the island - particularly in the public sector - then attending this little jewel of a school and being fluent in Manx can never be a disadvantage."
Outside of the strenuous efforts being made in the education, there is also the inevitable app for grown-ups.
There have been 1,700 downloads, including 150 in America, says Adrian Cain, language development officer at the Manx Heritage Foundation. "About 1,900 people at the moment claim to be able to speak Manx, though it's still hard to know the exact levels of fluency."
But the investment in keeping Manx alive doesn't appeal to everyone, Stowell admits.
"If you hear criticism of Manx, it's nearly always from elderly Manx people who still have the mentality of the mid-20th Century when the language was considered to be a totally backward thing to be heard speaking."
Jim Watterson, an Isle of Man resident from Port Erin, is a vocal critic of the money being spent. "Support in this area must be considered carefully and in perspective at a time when education is under such budgetary stress - libraries and pre-schools closing, teacher numbers being cut.
"I would suggest that this level of funding for the teaching of an almost dead language is a luxury that cannot presently be afforded."
But is this Manx language renaissance a prelude to a fully fledged reassertion of patriotism? Stowell doubts it very much.
"I don't think it's a nationalistic thing at all really. We're a wealthy island and we actually aren't part of the United Kingdom anyway. It's not an aggressive bone of contention at all. The island just doesn't work that way.
"Our Latin motto on the national coat of arms says 'Quocunque Jeceris Stabit', which means, 'whichever way you throw it, it will stand' - which says a lot about the stoicism and pragmatism of people here."
On an island with such a large migrant population, albeit mostly British, there has been a heartening turn of events for those who want to preserve languages.
"Nobody on the Isle of Man is much impressed or surprised by anything,", says Stowell. "But it's definitely a positive sign when you can speak our native language in a pub and not get in a brawl - that to me has to be a sign of progress."

Life Sciences Venture Capital Funding Overcomes Record Lows, Outpaces Other Sectors, According to PricewaterhouseCoopers
Early Stage Funding for Life Sciences Companies Exceeds $1 Billion in Q4 2009
New York (Vocus) February 11, 2010
Companies in the Life Sciences sector, which includes the biotechnology and medical device industries, captured the largest share of overall venture capital during 2009, reflecting the relative strength of the sector during the economic downturn, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC).
"Under Recovery (http://www. pwc. com/lifesciencesmoneytree. com)," a new PwC report that includes data from the PwC/NVCA MoneyTree Report, based on data from Thomson Reuters (https://www. pwcmoneytree. com/MTPublic/ns/index. jsp) finds that Life Sciences funding for 2009 totaled $6 billion in 715 deals, accounting for 34 percent of all venture dollars invested, compared to 28 percent in 2008.
"Venture capitalists see real opportunity for growth within the sector. As the worldwide population ages and more people enter their years of greatest healthcare need, demand for new pharmaceuticals (http://www. pwc. com/gx/en/ceo-survey/industry/pharmaceuticals-life-sciences. jhtml? WT. ac_id=syndication_01-10_industry-pharma-hp_13th-CEO-Industry-Insights-pharma-hp), diagnostics, and medical devices has the potential to go higher than we've ever seen," said Tracy T. Lefteroff, global managing partner of the venture capital practice at PricewaterhouseCoopers.
For all sectors, venture capitalists invested $17.7 billion in 2,795 deals in 2009, marking the lowest level of dollar investment since 1997. Compared with 2008, dollar investments into Life Sciences (http://www. pwc. com/gx/en/pharma-life-sciences/index. jhtml) plunged 22 percent in 2009, while the number of deals dropped 19 percent during the same time period, marking its lowest point in the past six years. Despite the decline, Life Sciences investment has outpaced overall venture capital funding since the third quarter of 2008.
In the last quarter of 2009, biotechnology investments totaled $1 billion in 108 deals with another $719 million going into 87 medical device and equipment deals. Biotechnology funding declined by 7 percent year over year, primarily due to a drop in deal activity. However, funding for medical devices increased by 14 percent compared with the same quarter in 2008. This increase reflected gains in both deal activity and deal size.
Investments by Stage of Development
Early-stage funding for the Life Sciences sector exceeded $1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2009 for the first time. Increases in both deal activity and deal size resulted in this rise in early-stage investment. Late-stage funding declined to $717 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, compared with $1 billion in the same quarter in 2008. Late-stage deal activity and deal size both declined in this period.
"The need for venture capital is greater for early-stage companies that don't yet have an exit strategy. They need to funnel assets into the clinic to develop products that will make them attractive acquisitions or IPOs down the line," Lefteroff explained. "Later-stage companies are finding other ways to generate cash, such as partnerships and licensing agreements with larger companies looking to expand their product pipelines."
Funding by Subsegment
Historically, the biotech human subsegment has received a majority of the biotechnology (http://www. pwc. com/en_GX/gx/pharma-life-sciences/publications/chireport2010.jhtml) industry funding every quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2009, with $714 million in funding, the biotech human subsegment alone received almost as much funding as the whole medical device industry. Out of 108 biotechnology deals for the fourth quarter of 2009, 64 of those belonged to biotech human. Looking at 2009 as a whole, 244 of the 406 biotechnology deals belonged to the biotech human subsegment. Investment in the biotech equipment subsegment demonstrated strong growth for the year, increasing by 67 percent to $207 million.
In the medical device industry, the medical therapeutics subsegment historically attracts the most funding every quarter. However, it began to show a decline after the second quarter in 2009, dropping from $455 million in that quarter to $439 million in the fourth quarter. Within the medical therapeutics subsegment, the surgical lasers subsegment jumped by 58 percent to $78 million. Surgical instrumentation and equipment also gained a small percentage, capturing $865 million for the year.
In the fourth quarter of 2009, the medical and health products and medical diagnostics subsegments grew by 118 percent and 35 percent, respectively — resulting in a growth of 14 percent for medical devices as a whole over the last quarter of 2008.
Investments by Region
The top five metropolitan regions receiving Life Sciences venture capital funding during 2009 were San Jose ($1,244 million), Boston ($990 million), San Diego Metro ($606 million), San Francisco/Berkeley ($477 million), and New York Metro ($427 million).
Funding in the San Jose area declined more steeply than the national level in 2009, while funding in the Boston metro area outperformed the national average. Both biotechnology and medical devices demonstrated stronger performance in the Boston area.

Hi, Lura! We got to so much deeper 'stuff'. And I know you worked too! You read that very long list and knew it. You were so 'with me' and picked up on what I said right away. And I felt your urgency, not rushing me, but wanting to get to all you could quickly and completely.
You were really wonderful to me. You stopped and answered every question I had and then got right back to the list. I felt honored and listened to and like my feelings mattered, and yet, you knew that there is more to me than those feelings, the true me or something.
It was such a powerful, life-changing event. I am different. I notice quickly when I am triggered, and since Sunday, it hasn't gone so far that I've reacted. And I see self-sabotage behavior too. It's like all of me is engaged without judgment. I don't know if I can write what I feel!
Love and blessings to you, Lura – I look forward to meeting you someday.

Now that students, teachers, parents and tutors have had a chance to catch their breath from final exams, it's time to make use of the weeks we have before school starts back. Consider all that could be accomplished in the next few weeks:
- Areas of math that students NEVER REALLY GRASPED could be fully explained. This could be elementary skills like adding fractions, middle school topics like systems of equations, or high school areas like sequences and series.
- Students could have a TREMENDOUS HEAD STARTon topics that will be covered in the first few weeks of school. Imagine your son or daughter being able to raise their hand to answer a question in the first week of school because they had worked several problems just like the ones that the teacher is demonstrating.
- ENORMOUS PROGRESS could be made in the area of preparation for the standardized tests (PSAT, SAT, ACT and more) that are so important to getting into a great college.
- STUDY SKILLS could be mastered so that your child excels in ways you've always hoped for and in all subjects, not just math.
- Topics in HOME SCHOOL MATH could be reviewed so that your daughter or son is ready to start their new curriculum in the fall.
- GROUP LESSONS can be coordinated so that students learn together in small groups of 3 to 5 students and have a competitive component added. I have seen this work wonders in helping boys and girls overcome shyness about raising their hand, taking a chance that their answer may be right or wrong and communicating with each other. There is a vast positive difference in how fast the material is mastered.
My hourly rate has been reduced for June and July so that students can get much-needed help during these precious weeks before their heavy class loads start back.
I hope to hear from you and I look forward to helping your child make great progress in the area of math!
