Prazdroj To The People: Submit Your Project
16 June 2009
Nosovice, 15 June 2009 - For the eighth time, non-profit organizations can apply for grants from the donors' program PRAZDROJ TO THE PEOPLE, which in total is 2.5 million CZK. Just like last year, projects encouraging improvement and expansion of leisure time activities have the best chance. The registration deadline is 31 August 2009, and final winners will be selected by the region's citizens in an autumn poll.
Projects of organizations from cities of Ostrava, Frýdek-Místek, Jablunkov, Třinec, Nošovice and vicinity will go through a pre-selection by a Council of Representatives comprising the region's officials and Plzeňský Prazdroj representatives. The most deserving projects will then advance to a public voting that can be influenced by citizens themselves with their votes through a coupon, internet or donor messages that will now not only send 27 CZK to the project, but 2 points as well. The final placing of the projects by the number of votes will determine the contribution allotment and its amount.
As Zuzana Novická, Sustainable Development Manager of Plzeňský Prazdroj says, projects that contribute to the improvement of conditions for leisure time activities for as many people as possible have the greatest chance of success: "With the Prazdroj program, we want to make leisure activities more pleasant for our fellow citizens, for example - through improvement of conditions for amateur sport or the improvement of facilities for cultural and other spare-time activities. We also welcome projects promoting the integration of all citizen groups both for handicapped and for socially disadvantaged citizens."
- Chance to receive a grant for a project realization from the PRAZDROJ TO THE PEOPLE program.
- Financial contribution from the public raised through the donor DMS.
- Publicity for the applicant and the project in regional media.

Squint and you might just think you're in New Orleans.
That's the objective of Universal Studios' Mardi Gras celebration, which tries to bring the best of the Big Easy to Orlando for several weekends each spring. The theme park aims for authentic experiences by transferring the brightest elements of New Orleans' party here, including a flashy parade, trademark cuisine and music direct from Louisiana.
Universal caps it off with more tunes from headlining musical acts that draw thousands of spectators to its Music Plaza for 14 nights. (This weekend features Steve Miller Band on Saturday and Boys Like Girls on Sunday. See list of performers on page 4.)

The parade
Sometime after the Mardi Gras madness ends in New Orleans, but before the last concert in Orlando, Universal's creative team travels to Blaine Kern's Mardi Gras World in New Orleans. There they sort through the company's warehouses for float decorations they will borrow for Universal's event the following year.
"We get to look at what was just run in New Orleans, what the Kerns may have in stock in their warehouses, what concept, thematic we might want to go for in the coming year and kind of throw all that into one pot and stir it around a little bit," says Jim Timon, senior vice president of entertainment.
A theme of "Colorful Cultures Around the World" is presented with new floats in this year's parade. One represents Day of the Dead, a Mexican holiday, with skeletons, half-melted candles and one giant, spooky margarita. A big red dragon touts Chinese New Year, and the "Elegance of India" float is fronted by a sparkling peacock and backed up by Ganesh, a Hindu deity that resembles an elephant.
Once in action, the floats are flanked by costumed dancers and stilt walkers, while other folks toss beads to enthusiastic bystanders lining the streets, another New Orleans tradition.
"All the costume design is done here in Orlando, so we key right off of the float — coloring, the thematic — and then those are all designed and built right here by our costuming staff for all the ground talent," Timon says.
It's a pattern with which Universal has become accustomed.
"We're already starting float drawings right now for next year," Timon says. "The cycle never stops."
The bands
A natural disaster led to even more New Orleans talent being peppered into Universal's Mardi Gras. Hurricane Katrina battered Louisiana in 2005, and tourism there took a beating.
"A lot of musical artists that rely on that for income were out of work. They couldn't find an avenue to make a living after Katrina," Timon says.
That's when Universal decided to invite musicians from New Orleans to perform on a side stage in the hours before the headliner performs and the parade begins.
"It was a huge hit with our guests. It just built the authenticity of the event experience 100 times more than we ever imagined that it would," Timon says. "It meant a lot to the musicians who participated, and it meant a lot to us. … I felt like we were doing something right."
Singer Beth McKee, who splits time between Orlando and New Orleans, has performed at Universal's Mardi Gras a handful of times.
"I don't have to tailor my sound to fit into a Mardi Gras gig because that's where I'm coming from," says McKee, who is scheduled for the Orlando event on March 2.
She says she loves outdoor venues, including Universal's French Quarter Courtyard, and interacting with guests.

Lace! Florals! Chunky jewelry! No jewelry! This winter, looking fabulous is all about rocking your personal style, which means pretty much anything goes (within reason). Your holiday wardrobe this season shouldn't be limited to wool, velvet and those yarn sweaters your aunt makes every year. Even red and green are optional, as evidenced by this weeks top style stars. After all, it's November and Blake Lively is wearing fringe, Heidi Klum is wearing lace and Kate Bosworth is working florals.
Take a hint from these lovely ladies and instead of focusing on festive-looking apparel, concentrate on texture. Pair a fringe dress with chunky mismatched bangles like Blake. Or use your favorite tweed jacket to compliment your chic black look like Olivia. Or go the way of Renee and dress up a simple dress with a fabulous pair of shoes. Whatever you wear, own your outfit by looking more like a dolled up version of you and less like a modern day version of Mrs. Claus.

Metallic piping is not grounded, it is bonded. Since you do not have a metallic pipe entering your home from underground we can skip that part about using it as an electrode.
Under normal operating conditions the ground/bond should not have current flowing on it.
Since you do not have a complete metallic piping system I do not believe anything will need to be bonded.

What constitutes adequate PM frequency in your plant? How do you know when enough is enough? Where do you want your PM program to take you? Think before answering. No guessing allowed.
When establishing an effective maintenance program, one must determine not only which preventive maintenance (PM) routines to accomplish, but how often they should be done. On the surface, the answer to this question would seem to be quite simple. Is it really?
One proven theory is that the PM to corrective maintenance (CM) work order ratio should be about 6 to 1. This theory assumes that PM inspections reveal some type of corrective work that should be completed on an asset on average every six times it is performed. The assumption is that, if the ratio is greater than 6:1, you are performing the PM too often; if the ratio is less than 6:1, you are not performing it often enough. (The "6 to 1 Rule" was proven by John Day, Jr., manager of Engineering and Maintenance at Alumax of South Carolina, during the period when Alumax of South Carolina was certified as the first "World-Class" maintenance organization.) You might accept this theory, put it in place in your Maintenance program and forget about reading the remainder of this article. Or, you might choose to continue reading, as we attempt to prove or disprove this theory.
How effective?
Preventive maintenance is that activity performed in some routine or regularly scheduled fashion designed to keep equipment in an existing state, prevent deterioration or failure and identify work of a corrective nature to keep equipment from causing non-productive time in any capacity. This is the detection phase of the PM investment— the conditions that we identify and correct prior to failure are the return for this investment.
Each PM that we develop and implement in our Maintenance organization will require some definite period of time for a Maintenance or Operations person to accomplish. How many PMs, how often, can we accomplish with our workforce, reserving a certain percentage of each day for emergencies, unplanned work and planned corrective work? Should we attempt to implement some type of control over how often we conduct PMs? You may realize, as we continue on this path, that the frequency assigned to many PMs has as much to do with effective manpower utilization as it does with discovery of potential asset problems.
All too often, our organization sees Maintenance departments being overwhelmed by the number of PMs required on a daily and weekly basis. It's not that these clients have so many PMs that all cannot be completed. It's because so many PMs must be accomplished, that there is little time allowed for emergency work and NO time for either solid corrective work to prevent emergencies (which capitalizes on the payback for our investment) or to perform other unplanned work. We also must consider the potential to "PM the equipment to DEATH!" Such a scenario—performing more PMs than we should—creates more problems than it solves.
The obvious question is: "How effective is your PM program?" The short answer is: "If your PM program isn't finding problems, it isn't effective."
How often?
How often should we perform any one PM procedure? It occurs to me that the frequency of performing a PM should be based on asset failure rate, or Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) rather than on the NON-failure rate.
If I run a particular piece of equipment to failure, fix it, then run it to failure again, what is the MTBF? Knowing that number, I should be able to calculate a realistic time frame where, if I perform some routine checks and preventive measures on this asset, I have the opportunity to identify potential problems and fix them, significantly extending the MTBF. Is this not our primary goal in maintenance? More does not necessarily equal better in preventive maintenance.
Let's consider the air compressor PM that is scheduled once every month. It requires that you observe the compressor in normal operation and look for any obvious signs of potential problems, such as air leaks, knocking in cylinder areas and improper operation of the automatic drain on the accumulator. It also requires that you shut down the compressor and check the condition of the air filter and oil level.
This air compressor PM is estimated to take one hour to complete. If you accomplish it as scheduled for six months and do not note any problems, or do not have to change the air filter or replenish the oil, what can you say about this PM?
First, you have used at least five man-hours of valuable craft labor performing a PM that you did not need to do after the first time, and the compressor was "off-line" for five hours during this PM activity. What other work could you have completed with those five man-hours?
Second, you can make a logical assumption that once per month is simply too often to schedule this PM. What to do? Should you change the PM frequency to "Annual" right away? If you did not generate a CM work order in six months, perhaps three or four months would be a good place to start. In this case, extending the length of time between PMs by a factor of 12 (to Annual) might result in missing an indicator of a potential problem and prove more costly in the long run.
Work into the appropriate frequency carefully. If by extending the periodicity of the compressor PM to three months, you identify corrective work every fifth or sixth time you accomplish the PM, you are in the right neighborhood for an effective PM program for the compressor. If not, keep adjusting the frequency until it gives you the outcome you need for an effective, proactive PM program. Good PM work order history will point exactly to the right frequency as you continue to experiment with periodicity for the PM.
How proactive?
When first implementing a proactive preventive maintenance program, you should establish frequency of PMs with a conservative view. Many sites implement their programs using manufacturer-suggested PM frequencies which, although usually on the conservative side, are a good starting point. Adjusting the frequency of PMs as good history develops is a benchmarking exercise driven by the desire to identify deficiencies and correct them before they become emergencies—while at the same time striving for the best possible use of your available Maintenance resource hours.
Consider the types of maintenance actually being performed at your facility. There is preventive, predictive, condition monitoring, corrective and emergency work in your basket, with every type of facility and industry expending certain percentages of Maintenance resources on each type.
We've already discussed preventive maintenance to some degree.
This is the appropriate time to note that, with the exception of emergency work, all of the other types of work are predicated on finding and fixing a problem before it becomes a "downtime" event. Perhaps we could categorize all maintenance except "emergency" under the umbrella of "preemptive" maintenance."
How close are you?
We have taken a "long, strange trip" around the Maintenance horn. Are we any closer to determining the proper ratio of PMs to CMs in a proactive Maintenance organization?
Two true statements that can be found in nearly every maintenance-related publication on the market are that:
The real answer could be that the ratio of PM to CM is dependent on several variables, including:
Summing it all up
If you work through all of these exercises, you will find that the proper PM to CM ratio for the majority of your assets likely will be close to the 6:1 ratio mentioned at the beginning of this article. This is not to say that ALL PMs should be targeted for that ratio, however.
The "6 to 1 Rule" worked for John Day and Alumax, and it works for many other facilities that have chosen reliability excellence and the proven processes that come with dedication to a proactive approach to maintenance. Still, each asset in your facility must stand on its own merits. Furthermore, the proper ratio of PM to CM must be determined as a direct result of analyzing past performance and PM work order history, not a guess on the part of the Planner, Supervisor or Maintenance Manager.

The Nesting Pillow - Organic Nursing Pillow with Washable Slip Cover
"I was very glad to find an alternative to the standard nursing pillow that is truly ALL organic. The buckwheat hull filling is very supportive and adjustable. The crescent-shaped pillow differs from most of the other pillows on the market, but makes it a great option for larger mamas who may not get a lot of use out of the contours of other brands. As well, it is a lovely shape for..." --HeatherB

http://www.familybilliards-sf.com In the spectrum of pool hall possibilities, Family Billiards is neither a luxury emporium nor a low-down hangout, but it duly provides 18 well-maintained tables in an environment that favors base functionality over fanciness or style. The warehouse-like space gives you what you need (e.g., clean playing surfaces, crisp lighting, cold beer) and, well, that's about it. But the prices are certainly right: the 4-7 p.m. daily happy hour offers all drafts (including Guinness and Stella Artois) for a mere $2.50, and ladies play free with paying partner on Sunday afternoons. For nocturnal gaming, Family stays open until 2 a.m. every night - and all the way until 4 a.m. on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays - if you think you can handle the crowds of kids kickin' it to Top 40 jams on the digital jukebox.

http://www.farmerbrownsf.com Casually elegant Tenderloin venue serves up cajun and creole nouvelle soul cuisine: fried catfish, candied yams, and other classics prepared with locally raised organic ingredients and a lighter new-millennium touch. The Farmerbrown menu might feature lighter-than-air angel biscuits, crisply fried chicken with Tillamook-draped mac 'n' cheese, and spicy, crunchy shrimp on a bed of stone-ground grits. Striking hammered-metal-and-timber setting. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.fatangelsf.com Fat Angel is a great find for a before or after drink if you're going to the Fillmore or Yoshi's. This small space a half-block off the main strip manages to pack an impressive beer and wine menu (including six beers and three wines on draft) into a space that is intimate without being cramped. The owners are usually on hand to assist with the beverage and food menus, the latter of which consists of small plates including charcuterie and artisanal butters (yes, apparently we now have artisanal butters now) made with savory bacon and sweet cinnamon.

http://www.fiddlersgreenpub.net This bilevel Irish watering hole with a cottage-like exterior is a cute pit stop on the stroll between Fisherman's Wharf and North Beach. Upon entering the closet-sized, low-ceilinged bar on the ground floor, you may think you've seen the whole pub, but head to the rear and you'll find stairs to a larger second floor where DJs spin on weekends and a backup bar slings pints to a mixed crowd of tourists and locals. During daytime meal hours, the kitchen offers traditional Irish corned beef and cabbage. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.thefillmore.com It's legendary and one of the best venues anywhere: great sightlines, killer sound system, and - most importantly - a continuous parade of top musical talent gracing the stage. Whether it's country legends, indie iconoclasts, crossover punks, or rhyme-slinging hip-hop crews, this venerable S.F. institution has got it. If you're bored between acts, scope the photo gallery that lines every hallway wall with pictures of the icons who've shared the same space in which you're currently standing.

Its walls covered by 49ers and Giants memorabilia, the Final Final is a solid place to kick back and watch sports in the Marina, with a crowd made up of regulars, sports enthusiasts, and whoever else happens to show up to enjoy the pool table, dartboard, and free popcorn. A full bar, plenty of beers on tap (including Guinness), and food (including Papa Murphy's pizza and standout wings) help make it a place with something for everyone.

http://www.finneganswakesf.com A hangout for Cole Valley's post-hipster denizens, Finnegans Wake is everything a neighborhood bar should be: friendly, no frills, and relaxed, with a dive-ish vibe for those who are so over irony. Seeming impossibly larger on the inside than how small it appears from the sidewalk, the bar is a dark, chill locals spot, perfect on a brisk night for cozying up in a dimly lit corner, or for those halcyon summer evenings when you want to make use of the back patio. For max-relaxing, rendezvous on that patio for free BBQ, or bring your own takeout from French bistro Zazie next door. And if the chill backyard's not enough, ping-pong, billiards, darts, and pinball should sate the gamers in your crew; dodgeball and pool leagues are open for the more athletic patrons. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
Decked out in bric-a-brac and reminiscent of a locals-only beach town dive, the Fishbowl is true to its community, sponsoring neighborhood dodgeball and softball teams (and boasting its winners' trophies on display), as well as supporting local artists by exhibiting their work for sale. On Sundays, the owner gets on the grill and serves up free BBQ. They also serve comfort grub everyday: the tater tots are "dusted with board spice" and the chicken tenders are battered thick. And what better way to wash down community-friendly food than to drink out of a community bowl? Their version of a Scorpion Bowl, the Fishbowl, is big enough for four - or one, you lush. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.fizzees.com A cursory initial glance might tell you there's little to distinguish Fizzee's from any other sports bar: there's a string of local boys bellied up to the beer taps, the games are on TV, two pool tables crouch in the back, and some pinball machines lurk around the corner, beeping and clacking in a vain attempt to be heard over the Eminem on the jukebox - but then you notice the large dune buggy that clings to the wall behind the bar. ("How'd they get that beast in here?," you'll wonder while ordering a heavily-poured drink from the gregarious bartender.) If it's a sunny afternoon, an orange glow suffuses the room as daylight spills through the large windows; at night, the boozy crowd watches passersby on Geary through the same glass while downing pitchers of brew. So, yes, Fizzee's is "just" a sports bar - but its friendly effervescence may be just what you need when seeking a cold pint. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.flybarandrestaurant.com Inexpensive nouveau bar food at this fun hangout includes a great "espinaca caliente" salad starring warm spinach, bacon, roast potatoes, and feta, and several varieties of pizza (the Funky Chicken features barbecue sauce in place of tomato). There's a wide variety of beers, sangria, and a menu of sake cocktails - the Sake 5-0 consists of sake, pineapple juice, and soy milk. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.flybarandrestaurant.com Formerly known as Brick, this Tendernob food and drink venue recently changed its name to Fly Bar and Restaurant in order to be more like its sibling location on Divisadero. The menu includes finger-food appetizers, personal pizzas, and sandwiches. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.thefoxoakland.com After lying dormant for many (too many) years, this grand old movie palace has finally reopened after massive renovation and rejuvenation efforts, thus making one of downtown Oakland's architectural crown jewels into one of the most glamorous places to see a concert in the East Bay. They almost paved this place over and put up a parking lot — but thankfully Paradise won for once. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
If you want to know just how inviting this quiet and comfy local watering hole really is, consider this: Friends actually posts a sign to remind people that it's a bar -- and you're supposed to be there to buy drinks, not just loll around on the ultra-soft sofas like it's your own abode. Friends personifies the laid-back neighborhood bar concept, feeling more like a game room (complete with pool table and jukebox) in an extended relative's basement than someplace you'd go to get rowdy. Even the drink prices are friendly. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.thefrontporchsf.com The dish at Bernal Heights' the Front Porch is called Miss Ollie's chicken, and blends Caribbean and Southern influences. The fowl is brined with citrus juices, then rubbed with an herb-and-spice mix (including habanero and parsley) and then a bath of soy-sparked beaten egg before the pieces are dipped in bread crumbs and fried, with a quick finish in the oven. Depending on the season and how the chef feels that day, sides might include black-eyed peas and collard greens flavored with pork belly. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.fuelsf.com The former Etiquette nightclub space is now Fuel, which touts itself as a "cabaret VIP lounge" with live burlesque dancers during DJ performances. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
Set among the pricey, crowded bars of Broadway, Fuse is a low-key lounge with a good vibe and excellent taste in DJs. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>

The egg wash and deep frying preparation process of the blooming onion means it is high in calories. In round numbers, a human at rest expends about 2000 calories per day; a single blooming onion with dressing contains approximately 3,000 calories and 116-134 grams of fat, including a combined 44 grams of saturated and trans fat.
Dig in!
You're probably the type of guy who thinks the mayor should tell him how much soda he can drink. If you can sit there and eat whole one of these, I doubt very seriously you're watching what you eat.
Hmm. I'm not at rest, consume more than 3K a day, and haven't gained weight. A generic calorie index for a female may be 2000 calories, but not the average male. Regardless, you generally get one of these to share with other people.
Yes, it's not health food. I think most people get that by now, and those who don't never will. Eat responsibly.
Eat a blooming onion, share is of course, plus your entree + a soda or soda's + a desert, do the calorie math on that one.
The last time i had these, to be honest, it was oily, soggy inside, and it's not even crunchy on the outside, just bad.
^^ True, it's a lot easier to control calories if you just say no to processed sugar... except for eating it on accident, if it was snuck into food it didn't belong in.
Either way, that's still a LOT of calories, lol... and not "good" calories.

Personal Hotspot under iOS 5
I have an AT&T iPad 3 running iOS 5.1.1. Recently the menu option for Personal Hotspot disappeared and I've tried every which way to get it back. Both Apple and AT&T said that I need update to iOS 6 to correct it. The manager of the apple store went so far as to agree with me that apple may have deliberately removed the feature for devices on older iOS versions to force them to upgrade.
Is anyone running iOS 5 with AT&T and still able to access the Personal Hotspot menu?

Kai saw Shari moving towards him, and stepped forward, waving to get her attention. Unsatisfied that she'd seen him, he weaved his way towards her, glancing over his shoulder at Hei and gesturing to Shari by way of explination.
"Sorry about running off like that, I really did need to send a message," he said when he reached her, "Yoko seems nice- but maybe leave the duplicity to someone with skill for it next time," he teased, lightly nudging her shoulder.

Introducing the eight-passenger 2014 LX. Offering the capability and confidence to deftly go where most vehicles dare not tread, a spacious cabin filled with refinement and technology that offers the power and convenience of your favorite mobile apps, this is the driving experience taken to new heights.
Don't let its luxurious features fool you. This is an SUV that's up to nearly any challenge. It combines the brute strength of a massive V8 with the grace of a six-speed sequential-shift transmission. And, to help you get away from it all even faster, it offers a 0-to-60 time [*] that's comparable to vehicles half its size.
An innovative Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence system monitors the engine's speed and load, increasing torque at lower speeds for improved towing power [*], and boosts performance at higher speeds by adjusting intake and exhaust valve timing.
By monitoring the throttle and vehicle speed, AI (Artificial Intelligence) Shift Control can estimate whether you are traveling uphill or downhill and automatically select the appropriate gear ratio for optimal engine response.
Featuring six forward gears, the wider gear-ratio spread of the LX transmission provides greater acceleration, efficiency and seamless shifting. Craving an even more engaging driving experience? A sequential-shift feature allows you to select gears manually.
Boasting an arsenal of innovative off-road technology, the LX is groundbreaking even when breaking new ground.
With the press of a button, CRAWL Control [*] is designed to maintain an optimal low and steady pace over challenging terrain. Turn Assist can also tighten your turning circle by adding brake force to the inside rear wheel.
The Active Height Control (X-AHC) and Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) systems combine to automatically raise the vehicle's height by up to three inches and adjust wheel articulation to better accommodate rough conditions.
By selecting the type of terrain you need to navigate—Rock, Rock & Dirt, Mogul, Loose Rock, or Mud & Sand—Multi-Terrain Select coordinates with the Active Traction Control to optimize the performance of the LX.
Mother Nature has met her match. The full-time 4WD system on the LX features a TORSEN® torque-sensing limited-slip center differential [*] that efficiently distributes engine power between the front and rear axles, helping to minimize tire spin in slippery conditions. And, for maximum traction in off-road situations, the differential can be locked.
Mountains are a piece of cake. But what about Main Street? To help ensure the LX handles as well on-road as it does off, it features an ingenious Adaptive Variable Suspension system that continually monitors the speed and steering angle to help decrease body roll and a steering system that helps provide greater agility and road feel.
VGRS automatically adjusts the steering angles and response of the front wheels for easier low-speed maneuvering and increased high-speed responsiveness and control.
For optimal ride comfort and handling, the LX features a high-mount double-wishbone suspension with rigid components for enhanced steering feel.
The stiffness of the shock absorbers can be adjusted manually for enhanced handling or automatically when driving on highways, during braking and while cornering.
With 28 vents throughout the cabin, the LX features a standard four-zone climate-control system that allows you and your passengers to select ideal temperature settings. To help keep the air pure, an air filter helps to remove allergens and dust, and a smog sensor can automatically activate the recirculation mode.
For optimal comfort in cold conditions, the LX features adjustable heated front seats and available heated second-row seats.
Located where your hands naturally rest, an available heating element continually monitors and adjusts the heating levels to maintain a set temperature.
To help combat those cold winter mornings, a windshield deicer features embedded heating wires around the edge of the windshield to prevent the wipers from sticking to the glass.
For personalized comfort, the driver's power seat features heating and available ventilation and offers 14 types of adjustment, including dual-function lumbar and seat cushion extension.
The supple leather trim found throughout the cabin is hand-selected from only the highest-quality full-grain stocks, including available semi-aniline leather that's among the finest in the industry.
Offering a host of unique and innovative refinements, the LX features exclusive Mahogany wood accents that are individually selected for consistent color and grain.
Among its many accommodating features, the power rear door's clamshell design makes loading cargo more convenient. The lower tailgate also can be manually raised and lowered, aiding cargo access.
For easy cargo loading, the power-sliding second-row seat offers a 40/20/40-split seatback to fit a variety of items [*]. And, with a press of a button, the 50/50-split third-row seat stows to the side in seconds.
As part of the Luxury Package, the available cool box is neatly integrated in the front console under the center armrest and helps keep your beverages and other items nicely chilled.
Available Lexus Enform [*] and Safety Connect® [*] offer more than the convenience of live, 24-hour navigation assistance and the peace of mind of knowing emergency services can be requested at the press of a button. With the available App Suite [*], you can use your LX to make dinner reservations and order movie tickets on the fly.
With available Fuel Guide [*], you can search for stations by price, brand, distance or grade. And, once you make a selection, it can display the destination on your Navigation [*] screen.
Available NavTraffic™ [*] provides up-to-date traffic information, including speed and estimated travel time, and can reroute you to avoid accidents or construction.
Available NavWeather™ [*] can provide continuously updated local weather reports and three-day forecasts for specific cities and can even automatically alert you of severe weather ahead.
Available Sports and Stocks [*] offers access to the schedules, scores and news of your favorite sports teams, as well as personalized stock quotes and related information.
Helping to provide enhanced visibility, an available Wide-view Front and Side Monitor system [*] features a front-mounted camera to help you see around blind corners, such as when exiting a parking garage. For added convenience, a second camera located underneath the passenger side-mirror is particularly useful when navigating narrow passageways and tight parking spaces.
Helping to provide enhanced visibility, an available Wide-view Front and Side Monitor [*] system features a front-mounted camera to help you see around blind corners, such as when exiting a parking garage. For added convenience, a second camera located underneath the passenger side-mirror is particularly useful when navigating narrow passageways and tight parking spaces.
When the system [*] is activated at speeds less than 7.5 mph, the view from the front camera, side camera or both cameras simultaneously are displayed on the Navigation [*] screen.
The available dual-screen Rear-Seat Entertainment System [*] enables two video sources to be viewed at the same time. Using a single remote control, one can be used as a DVD player, for instance, and the other as a game console or audio player. For your convenience, wireless headphones [*] and a three-prong electrical outlet are also included.
It's the difference between listening to music and being enveloped by it. Engineered by a company world-renowned by audiophiles, the available 450-watt Mark Levinson® Reference Surround Sound Audio System [*] was tuned for more than 4,000 hours to optimize the acoustics of the LX. As a result, it features a class-leading 19 speakers and 7.1-channel architecture and provides enough clarity for listeners to identify the spatial position of each instrument at play.
Seven 1.0-inch titanium dome tweeters with neodymium magnets offer greater rigidity and lower mass than conventional tweeters, providing lower distortion, higher resolution and more natural dynamics.
Seven 4.0-inch midrange transducers with extended low-frequency response were recently developed and paired with the 1.0-inch tweeters. As a result, each channel enjoys the benefits of a high-performance two-way system.
The two 6.0-inch by 9.0-inch front-door midwoofers are each provided 100 watts of power, helping to optimize bass response in a variety of music genres and fill the passenger compartment with clear sound with minimal distortion.
Two proprietary woofers with metal-cone and dome geometries deliver midrange and lower frequencies, including deep bass notes.
A 10-inch cast basket, high-power neodymium magnet subwoofer is housed in a 22-liter enclosure. This provides the deepest bass for all the occupants in the most non-resonant package possible.
Designed specifically for the Mark Levinson Reference Surround Sound Audio System [*], this power amplifier produces 450 watts, all channels driven, 20Hz-20kHz @ less than 0.1% Total Harmonic Distortion [*]. Unlike conventional automotive audio systems with integrated power circuits, this circuitry in this system is fully discrete.
The LX delivers safety that suits you. While an ordinary crash-test dummy can provide 119 data points, Lexus uses digital models comprising millions. A result of innovative approaches to safety like this: The LX is equipped with a class-leading standard [*] 10-airbag system [*], Whiplash Injury-Lessening front seats [*] and an available Pre-Collision System [*] that can help provide added braking force to reduce impact speed.
The available Pre-Collision System (PCS) [*] on the LX is engineered to help detect an imminent frontal collision and, while retracting the front seatbelts, automatically help to provide increased braking pressure the moment you step on the brake pedal.
The Multi-terrain Anti-lock Braking System is designed to monitor and adjust to the road's surface to help ensure the ideal braking strategy for each driving situation. As a result, stopping distances on snow, gravel and wet pavement are reduced and overall control is enhanced.
The LX offers some of the most advanced Active Safety systems on the road today, including a Dual-swivel Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) that can help illuminate curves by rotating the right or left headlamp into a turn at low speeds and both headlamps together at high speeds.
This available system uses six ultrasonic sensors located on the front and rear of the LX to detect how close your vehicle is to surrounding objects. Distance is indicated on the Navigation [*] screen, as well as the instrument panel, and is accompanied by an audible warning tone.
Available Dynamic Radar Cruise Control [*] is designed to help maintain a preset distance from the car traveling in front of you by automatically reducing the throttle and even applying the brakes. Once the road clears, the LX returns to its preset speed.

What is Academic Advising?
The mission of the Academic Advising Department at Daytona State College is part of a collaborative process designed to help students succeed academically by encouraging them to be proactive in planning their own education. Academic Advisors will assist students with developing an appropriate educational plan that will lead to graduation by providing them with timely and accurate information, making referrals to campus resources, and encouraging students to utilize these resources.
Academic Advising is here to assist and guide you from your first semester through graduation. You will first meet with Academic Advising after you have been admitted to the college and have taken a placement test. (Some students with qualifying SAT/ACT test scores or transfer credits will not need to be tested.)
Beginning with the Spring 2014 semester, any student who starts the 9th grade in a Florida public high school AND graduates from a Florida public high school and students who are currently active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces are exempt from taking any college placement test or developmental education course. Students can opt to take the placement test and subsequent developmental courses if they feel they need to or if it is recommended by an Academic Advisor.
Are you an online student who needs help with Advising? Please review "How to get advising help if you are an online student." Online students may email an advisor via FalconMail with questions, please see the handout to find out how.
The college is closed on the following days and Advising Services will not be available

Migi Glider by Sunny Lin
Re: Migi Glider by Sunny Lin
Sunny, is there something to show?
Re: Migi Glider by Sunny Lin
I have a Migi glider, and it is a dream. If you are on Facebook, Sunny Lin, the maker of Migi, is there, and has a new video of someone flying Migi. The workmanship is incredible. For a treat, Look up Litsong Lu Whidbey kite on youtube and you will see one of the most graceful indoor flyers on the planet. She is flying Zen, which is Sunny's brilliant minimalist glider, the forerunner of Migi. Zen is very hard to make. Migi is apparently a little easier... Litsong's son Wen Jeng flies in the second half of the video. I aspire to fly my Migi as well as Litsong. Isn't going to happen, but it's fun trying.

Are Jays fans more drunk, boorish and entitled than ever?
The Royal Blue Hysteria…
But musician, author and Jays fan Dave Bidini suggests that over the last few years, the people filling the blue plastic seats are increasingly drunk, boorish and entitled. "Guys with reversed baseball caps with wrap-around sunglasses coming in from Oshawa or Whitby…who act like jerks and then leave", is how the Etobicoke native describes the problematic fans responsible for "a lot of vomit, a lot fighting" in the stands. Bidini suggests the Jays' own ...Read More...

Blue Jays players were willing to alter contracts to land Santana
It was as if the Toronto Blue Jays passed around a hat, trying to collect enough money to sign free-agent right-hander Ervin Santana.
Several Jays players discussed deferring portions of their salaries to clear payroll for Santana last month, according to major league sources.
The discussions, which apparently did not progress past the conversation stage, raise new questions about the Jays' payroll flexibility for 2014.

NYT: Brayden King: What Umpires Get Wrong
THIS season Major League Baseball is allowing its officiating crews to use instant replay to review certain critical calls, including home runs, force plays and foul balls. But the calling of the strike zone — determining whether a pitch that is not swung at is a ball or a strike — will still be left completely to the discretion of the officials. This might seem an odd exception, since calling the strike zone may be the type of officiating decision most subject to human foible.

Mike Trout: 6 years, $144.5 million
Trout is clearly an elite hitter already, at age 22. There is certainly no reason, on the surface, to question whether he'll be worth his recent six-year, $144.5M extension that will carry him through his age 28 season. Still, let's look into the game's past and try to identify his peer group. Does he even have one? How did they age, when did they peak, and what might the future hold for Mike Trout, and for the Angels' investment in him?
The start to Trout's career is almost ...Read More...

The wind was strong. The will was stronger. Battling a heavy headwind going south, James Green (me) rode a south of Iowa City to Barnes Tree Farm and found a beautiful, symmetric tree, then carried it home. On a bicycle.
Already muddy from riding through wet and dirty streets and sidewalks to Mass and then across Iowa City to Mormon Trek Extension, Green and the bicycle--with stubs on the front and back where lights used to be but no longer are due to their materials failing and them falling off in 10 degree biking--rode into Barnes Tree farm early Sunday afternoon. There was a strong breeze from the south warning of the ensuing winter weather, but making the temperature much more pleasant than the previous few days.
After spending a while finding the right tree--and it was definitely right--he cut it and carried it to a waiting worker at the tree farm. The tree was wrapped and that's when things got real. How do you put a tree on a bicycle?
"You know, I think I can write 'The Idiot's Guide to Getting a Tree Home on a Bike.' after this," said Green. "I'm not sure the companion manual for non-idiots is relevant; they already know better than to try."
After a couple of failed attempts to get the tree secured to the rack on the back of the bicycle, Green gave up and just tied loops that he wrapped his arms through. A picture by a friend and another by one of the employees of the tree farm and he was off.
This time, the wind from the south was much more welcome. Even up hill, pedaling was barely needed courtesy of the big sail attached to his back. Several motorists honked. A mental health professional offered his services. Green got the tree to his living room where it stands as a proud testament of human foolishness and drive.

Believe It or Not!
All of our Ripley's Twists are now out as ibooks, including Twists Wild Animals.
Naked Mole-Rat
Good looks don't matter to these burrowing mammals. They're nasty to look at, and nasty by nature: males kidnap youngsters from other colonies and keep them as slaves, forcing them to dig new tunnels.
I don't know about you, but Naked mole rats are probably one of my favorite animals. Creepy little walking sausages that live together like a colony of ants, feel no pain in their skin and have teeth growing on the outside of their lips. What's not to love?
