The Ecology of Transportation: Managing Mobility for the Environment
your country
Human transport by land, sea and air has increased exponentially through time in intensity, paralleling rises in population, prosperity and rates of technological change. Transport has considerable ecological effects, many of them detrimental to environmental sustainability. This volume brings together international experts from a variety of disciplines to review the ecological effects and their causes in terms of road, rail, ship and aircraft transport. The contributors have different attitudes and agendas. Some are ecologists, some planners, others social scientists. Focus ranges from identification of threats and amelioration of damaging effects through to future design of transport systems to minimize environmental degradation. Some chapters consider restricted areas of the globe; others the globe itself. Views encompass deep pessimism and cautious optimism.
Uniquely, the volume considers transport effects in all environments. This is the first book that attempts to discuss the relationship between human transport and all ecosystems. It appeals not only to the specialist environmentalist by picking out novel topics, but also to anyone involved in transport issues as it tackles the issues from an historical perspective, encompassing the past, present and future of the effects of human transport.less

Right at the start of women's liberation. I can see mom thinking. "So, when was the last time a man helped with the dishes in this house? And as for an allowance…..".
She's still a bit of a child.
Women's liberation started at least in the 1700's if not earlier.
Smartest move we made way back then: we bought an automatic dishwasher when we married.

text: If the Chiefs are going to have any success against the Texans offense, they're going to have to be careful not to over pursue. On running plays, the Chiefs defense must maintain backside pursuit. The key to slowing down Foster in the run game is taking away the cutback lane. The key for the Chiefs' defense is to be gap disciplined. As shown in both videos, both Foster and Tate have the vision to cut runs back for big yardage. The Texans much like the Chiefs run a WCO. So by design, the offense is built to attack the field horizontally. What the Chiefs' defense must do in this game is force the Texans to beat them throwing the ball down field. One of the reasons for the Texans alarming turnover rate is due to defenses sitting on the underneath routes. The Rams layed out an excellent blueprint on how to slow down J.J. Watt. They spent most of the game doubling him on pass plays and running from him on run plays. More than likely the Texans are going to try to line him up over on Fisher's side of the field. So it's going to be imperative for the Chiefs' coaching staff to give Fisher help by leaving a guard, back, or tight end on his side of the field.

From iMP Production: Active Process Killer is a program that runs in the tray. By using a hotkey (shift-pause), this program will terminate the active process by the same means of terminating it using the taskmanager, but without having to select the process. This can be useful for e.g. fullscreen applications that have frozen. Using another hotkey (shift-end) and holding it for a few seconds, you can terminate all applications that is not on the UTP (UnTerminatable Processes) list. Countless times over the years have games frozen with a black screen, not allowing people to use the taskmanager to terminate it. Thats what gave me the idea to create this app. And with it, most processes can be terminated instantly.

The ESD (Electronic Security Devices) DCPM-1 is a highly versatile 24VAC to 12VDC power converter module. It can be used to power DC Board Cameras, Miniature fiber optic transmitters or with Access control products such as door readers and REX'S. To power the unit, you simply apply 10 - 28V AC or DC power to the input and you get 9-18VDC-1AMP output (see choosing your input - page 2).
A typical CCTV application could have our PDA-8ET4 powering 7 24VAC security cameras and then a wire run to a covert board camera powered by our ESD DCPM-1. An access control application would be where you have 24VDC lock power and you use a DCPM-1 to power a REX and/or door reader from the 24VDC source.
Gladly Accepted.

This dip is SPECTACULAR! My husband couldn't get enough of it! I highly recommend it!
This dip is awesome! I took it to a get-together with friends and they inhaled it. (I should have doubled the recipe). We absolutely loved the combinations of ingredients. WOW, Secret, thank you for sharing.
Absolute awesome! Anything with apples gets my attention, and this smooth and creamy dip (or could be used as a spread, I think) is a real winner. Served it the first time at a party this summer, and everyone raved. Have served it a number of times since then (it is that good), so it has become one of my "signature" party treats! Soaking the apples in pineapple juice overnight allows me to prepare them the day before. If you prepare the dip ahead of time, be aware that some brickle pieces will dissolve in this mixture (I found out the hard way!). Wait until you're ready to serve, then add the tasty little bits that give this recipe an essential boost.
My family thought this was delicious. I used fat free cream cheese.
I made this for work and it was a huge hit...everyone wanted the recipie. It's very easy and fun to make.
This recipe was absolutely wonderful. It was very easy to make and it lets you justify your sweet tooth by being able to eat it with apples. It is definitely a winner.
I have had this dip at a party...it was awesome! The hostess served it with tart granny smith apples though--I thik the contrast between the super-sweet dip and the super-tart apples was what made it so yummy.
I took this to a girl''s weekend away. Everyone loved it. Dipping the apple slices in the lemon-lime soda was a great idea. I liked the taste much better than dipping slices in lemon juice.

The ''vile'' smell over Waikouaiti was caused by composted
fertiliser, including chicken manure, being spread over a
paddock, the Otago Regional Council says.
The council investigated after reports to its pollution line
of a bad odour wafting over the township on Monday and
Council environmental monitoring and operations director Jeff
Donaldson said contrary to some residents' belief, the odour
did not come from the town's Mainland poultry farm, but a
paddock next door.
A staff member discovered composted fertiliser had been
spread on a paddock adjoining the factory by a landowner.
The property owner was being notified by the council and
advised to plough the fertiliser into the ground quickly.
The odour had dissipated on Wednesday, as the wind direction
had changed.
Anyone who was planning to put composted fertiliser on their
land needed to be aware it was unacceptable for it to cause
an objectionable odour beyond the boundary of their property,
he said.
''If it does, you need to do something about it.''

Yum! We are giving this 5 stars because it is what it is. A very good fat free "Alfredo Sauce". I cut the recipe in half and there was plenty to serve 3 and some lefted over. I threw in some bay scallops during step 5 and wished I had added some slice mushrooms. This is full of flavor although DH thought it needed more salt. ??? I served it over some spinach fettuccine. This made for a wonderful dinner with a side salad and some heated bread to go with it. Thanks for posting. Made for PAC Fall 2009

I am awesome at growing a beard. There is probably other skills I possess but that is definitely my favorite. Also, I know this guy. One time while eating at McDonald's, he literally crapped his pants. So he shuffled to the bathroom and when he realized he soiled them beyond return, he simply took them off and hung them on the door. Then he ran out into the dining area, grabbed his Big Mac, and ran straight out the door. True story and it most definitely wasn't me.

Record photographer Madelyn Troyanek's nighttime pictures of the Castillo de San Marcos in Sunday's Record made me think of flounder gigging.
They also made me think of the unusual things you see on the water at night and how the unusual often makes the whole outdoor experience more interesting.
And, in a larger sense, the pictures reinforced the belief that our judgments as to the success or failure of any outdoor adventure can't be, for that matter should not be, measured by size or numbers. Rather the real measures of success are the unique memories and experiences acquired as a reward for the effort.
Because of the way flounder gigging is accomplished, it's hard not to end up seeing new things while doing it. You've got bright lights around the bow of your boat (flounder can also be gigged while wading) and you're moving slowly along in water that is seldom more than 3 feet deep.
Your attention is fully focused, not on a float suspending a bait, or a lure twitching across the surface but rather on what is under the water. You're focused on the bottom, looking for the telltale outline, or as is so often the case, only the protruding eyes of a flounder buried in the sand.While you're searching for that outline, you'll invariably see a myriad of other marine creatures, many of which make themselves scarce if not invisible during the day.
While gigging, we've seen spinney lobster scooting across the bottom toward the safety of the rocks behind the Castillo, octopi creeping along an oyster bar and sheepshead sleeping, yes sleeping, in the grass at the edge of the flats. Numerous other fish, crustaceans and invertebrates come and go under the lights, some too quickly startled off to recognize and some apparently oblivious to us and the light.
Not having ever been overly successful as a flounder gigger, at least as far as numbers of fish harvested goes, it should be acknowledged that the following tips come from a professional.
According to Rick Fellabaum, a commercial gigger who sells fish to us at the market, the best tide to gig flounder on is the last of the outgoing and the first of the incoming.
And the best time of the year, as far as quality of fish to be had, starts in September and can last until the end of October.
Just as hook and line fishermen note a peak in flounder activity as the fish make their fall run for the ocean so to do the giggers.
The necessary equipment varies depending on your commitment to the project. Some success can be had using a hand-held light such as a Q-Beam, even though the glare from these can be irritating and distracting.
Some of the commercial giggers use a shielded light suspended above the water, in some instances a number of these, and still others use submersible lights.
The submersible lights are the most difficult to set up and the most prone to damage from obstructions but they produce the least glare.
The gigs themselves are available in various configurations. Most of the professionals seem to rely on gigs with three to five prongs, but we do see plenty of fish taken with single prong gigs.
Whatever style gig is used, it is imperative that it be strong enough to swing a flounder out of the water into the bottom of the boat and have a sufficiently large barb to keep the flounder on the gig during the swing.
As for the pole the gig is attached to, most are in the 8-to-12-foot range and made of wood. It's worth noting that if you use some material other than wood, be sure it floats because you will eventually drop it over the side.
Other useful but not mandatory equipment includes bug repellent, spare lights, spare battery clips, a spare gig ... do you see a pattern here?
And finally to answer the question of how photographer Troyanek's pictures would cause thoughts of flounder gigging and more importantly reflections about "unique memories and experiences."
It was a crystal clear evening some years ago, shortly after 2 a.m. with a light sea breeze coming across the bayfront.
We were searching the bottom along the seawall from the Bridge of Lions toward the Castillo.
As we neared the point where the seawall takes a curve toward the Castillo, we noted a young man and woman just sitting down on the steps cut into the stone. The young man had a violin and almost immediately began to play as the young woman sat on the opposite side of the steps and poured a glass of wine.
They were oblivious to our presence only yards away and for a few moments we listened to the sound drifting across the water and back into the quiet streets of the city. And, as aging men do, we imagined youth once again.
Then we turned the boat back the way we had come leaving them undisturbed. How many flounder came aboard that night I can't remember, but the evening was successful by any measure.

El ciclismo es uno de los deportes más duros de cuantos haya en la rama de la actividad muscular, y para un mejor desempeño dentro de las pistas como en la carretera se han diseñado modelos especiales de bicicletas que tienen, en común, tres aditamentos esenciales para la comodidad y seguridad de los corredores y/o aficionados a esta actividad. La ergonomía, el equilibrio y la velocidad, son los factores de punta que influyen dentro del desarrollo de estos velocípedos de alta tecnología, en donde la utilización de materiales livianos que ofrecen una menor resistencia al impulso generado por la persona que utiliza la máquina es importante para su alto desempeño.
Un ejemplo diciente de estas innovaciones técnicas alrededor de las bicicletas más avanzadas, la constituyen la línea de modelos que promociona la marca Goka; entre sus más destacadas características, está por ejemplo la de ser compuesta por fibras de carbono especialmente tratadas y adecuadas a la constitución física del artículo, a la vez que una mejora aerodinámica permite que haya una suficiente tasa de sostenibilidad al momento de usar la bicicleta. La tecnología F9 System, está directamente relacionada con el pedaleo para poder tener un mayor control de la vibraciones mientras se corre en cualquier tipo de terreno, y la adecuación de forma más compacta respecto al tubo horizontal con una curvatura especial en su diseño, permite un mayor agarre en los manubrios así como una mayor solvencia a la hora de sentarse en el galápago.
Otra de las marcas de bicicleta de alta tecnología son las BH, con un diseño mucho más clásico que recuerdan a las utilizadas de los años 60 a los 80 del siglo pasado, y que constituían la nota estilística predominante dentro de las carreras. Con unos frenos doble pívot para mayor control tanto en las curvas como en la constitución de terrenos accidentados, tienen tecnología Shimano en los principales componentes de la bicicleta como las ruedas, las bielas y el cambio posterior que permiten un control mucho más ergonómico de la máquina sin que para ello disminuya la potencia y la adecuación de la misma.
Un concepto más dentro de las propuestas a la hora de hablar de bicicletas de alta tecnología son las de la marca Global Concept; estas son también incorporadas a la gran técnica de Shimano y por igual están constituidas de fibras de carbono, lo que asegura su ligereza y calidad de manejo. La potencia, el manillar y la tija que tienen el sello de Titan Carbone las hace muy especiales, definitivamente.

Many music festivals are located in outskirts, wildernesses and boonies with the idea of creating a relocated community away from the normalcy of city life. Even city festivals usually take place at a venue that though proximal to city life, makes festival-goers feel as if they are in a timeless and placeless dimension.
We have much to learn from The Caravan of Peace and the likes of Khaira Arby and Songhoy Blues. As in Mali, there is no shortage of political and economic oppression in the United States. Considering the ever-growing celebration and extension of ignorance, intolerance, hate and social violence, the prospect for our future generates no small measure of fear.

Butternut Squash and Turkey Chili
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 40 mins
What to do with all that leftover squash? When in doubt...make a chili! You can make this into a "sweet" chili by adding a sweetener of choice. I use lean ground turkey. NOTE: Please do not use corn grits. The hominy referred to is a canned vegetable.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄4 lbs extra lean ground turkey
- 1 lb butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 (15 ounce) can red kidney beans or 1 (15 ounce) can black beans
- 1 medium onion, diced (3 oz)
- 4 1⁄2 ounces green chilies or 1 chopped anaheim chili
- 2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes
- 1 (15 ounce) can yellow hominy
- 1 cup low-sodium tomato sauce
- 1⁄2-1 cup fat free chicken broth (depending on how thick you like your chili!)
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- In a large non-stick stockpot, sauté garlic and onion for 2-3 minutes.
- Add ground turkey and cook over medium heat.
- When the turkey is cooked about halfway, add the squash to the pot and continue cooking and stirring until turkey is cooked through.
- Add all other ingredients to pot and stir.
- Bring to a boil over medium/high heat.
- Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until squash is softened to your liking.
Most Helpful
This chili was really, really good. I made it exactly as stated in the recipe. Served it with some good organic course ground cornbread which went with the chili beautifully. I did add just a pinch of sugar to take the bite out of the tomatoes. Will definately make again. Thanks for the recipe.
We liked this recipe; though we found the grits a bit out of place. We don't usually put them in chili. It was also a bit spicer than most of my family likes. Still not bad! Thanks for the recipe.

Diabetes With Heart Disease: Bypass vs. Angioplasty
By Serena Gordon
HealthDay Reporter
TUESDAY, Oct. 15 (HealthDay News) -- Generally, the less invasive a surgical procedure is, the better. But, that's not necessarily true for people with diabetes.
Recent research has found lower death rates and fewer heart attacks in people with diabetes who've undergone the open-heart procedure known as a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), compared to those who had the less-invasive coronary angioplasty with stents. Angioplasty is also called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Now a new study of the same group of patients reports that they also have a better quality of life after the more-invasive bypass procedure.
"Recovery and early quality of life was better immediately with PCI, which is not surprising given the much less invasive nature of that procedure. But, between six months and two years, there was less [chest pain], slightly better physical performance and quality of life with CABG," said senior study author Dr. David Cohen, director of cardiovascular research at St. Luke's Mid America Heart Institute, in Kansas City, Mo.
Results of the study were published in the Oct. 16 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Angioplasty is a common procedure to open up blocked blood vessels that supply blood to the heart. A special balloon-tipped catheter is inserted into a blood vessel (usually in the leg), and then threaded up to the area around the heart. If a blockage is encountered, it can be opened by inflating the balloon. To keep the blood vessel open, doctors often insert a small lattice-like tube (stent) into the blood vessel, the American Heart Association explains.
In coronary artery bypass graft surgery, a surgeon takes blood vessels from other parts of the body and uses these to reroute blood flow around the blocked blood vessel. While this surgery is very effective, it is more invasive than angioplasty and requires more recovery time both in and out of the hospital.
Several previous studies have shown that bypass surgery is generally the preferred procedure for people with diabetes. Cohen said there are a number of reasons why the more-invasive procedure is better. "People with diabetes tend to have different anatomy and more co-morbidities [other existing health conditions]. Their blood vessels tend to be smaller; they have more peripheral vascular disease and more renal [kidney] failure, which are things known to be bad for those undergoing PCI," he pointed out.

May find something useful in it
Nathan Donaldson
on March 11, 2003
I am for the most part a 2D DirectDraw programmer with some experience in DirectSound and DirectMusic. I only use these APIs and only with Visual C++ 6.0 Standard in Windows XP. So, I cannot sit here and write a lengthy review about how cool I think all the aspects of this book are when I wouldn't use most of the information covered in the book with my own 2D graphics engines. However, there was still a few VERY good articles in this book that can be used by either 2D or 3D programmers, so I'll talk about those because I know them and have used them.
The first really good chapter I found is 1.9 "Frame Based Memory Allocation" by Steven Ranck. Teaches you a trick on how to completely eliminate memory fragmentation in your games and speed up memory allocation during run-time, by never using memory allocation in run time. Instead, allocating memory at load time and using that allocation throughout various parts of the program until the program exits. Pretty cool and fast.
But I cannot skip the fact that all the articles in the first section can be used in any type of game (2D/3D) but I haven't gotten as much use out of them yet. There are 14 chapters in the first section total.
Once you get into the section on mathematics, you had better be a math wiz or at least proficiant.... Chapters like "Polynormal Approximations to Trigonomic Functions" means nothing to a 2D programmer like myself. Same goes for the chapter, "Matrix-Quaternion Conversions".
Section 3 goes into AI programming. The only chapters I have really read thoroughly is 3.1, "A finite-state machine class" by Eric Dysband, and 3.3, "Basics of A* For Pathfinding" by Bryan Stout. I found this chapter very useful and the book CD-ROM comes with pathfinding examples written by Bryan that demonstrate what he is talking about. Really useful to me!
Section 4 is completely useless to me because it's all about 3D programming. In fact the section is titled "Polygonal Techniques" and contains 19 chapters.
Section 5 is titled Pixel Effects and I really haven't gotten much out of this section unfortunately.
So as you can see, no matter what kind of programmer you are, you can probably get at least one really good tip out of this book. I didn't list all the useful chapters in the book, just the ones that were useful to me. When you read through it, you are likely to find different ones that are just as useful to you.

Do NOT buy this book without actually reading a chapter or
John Doe
on July 18, 2003
two -- very carefully -- in a bookstore. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. You will be tempted to buy it at first because the book is well made -- it's cute to look at, printed on acid-free, thick paper, font selection is very good, pleasing and clear. Don't fall for these mechanical attractions! Evaluate the contents.
It's truly not a book; it's more of a collection of perfunctory commentary to some source code on the disk (of unknown quality and/or usefulness.) The writing is mostly abhorrent (with the exception of the sections written by LaMothe and another guy whose name escapes me at the moment; Lamothe is good and can write, not only program); a lot of stuff is simply not explicated, the selection of the actually printed code is haphazard and unhelpful vis-a-vis the text. Since the quality and usefulness of the stuff on the disk is anyone's guess as well (and based on the text, it's nothing awesome), I don't think this book deserves the acclaim that it seems to get.
Several chapters are wasted on annoying bs about hungarian notation, development process (a la Code Complete), absolute banalities about using STL (very superficial, w/o any linkup with games programming -- just buy an STL book if you need to learn it, you won't get anything out of the Gems book itself.) There's a section on templates where the writers seemed more concerned with hugely impressing the reader with the supposedly latest-and-greatest template tricks than offering something useful (look for matrix classes -- they propose the stuff as some kind of generic mechanism (thus, templates), yet what they do will be totally useless for more than 3x3 matrices, and those can be simply coded manually if you need this kind of optimization, which is inlining and unrolling, really -- and keep in mind that it's only small loops that can be gainfully unrolled coz if it doesn't fit in the cache... you know where I'm getting to... moreover, with branch prediction, normal loops may perform better than when unrolled; at any rate, a regular, less-fashionable approach could result in simpler code; but they gotta show off their templatizing skill, wow, I'm impressed, another piece of pompous nonsense suitable for the C++ Report... too bad it's useless practically for 4-and-above dimensional matrices. Generality that doesn't apply generally... an overdesigned particular case, that's what it is.)
Most other chapters are written in a very typical halting, disjointed, and ungrammatical geeky-speak, and I don't mean terminology or technicalities, I mean an irritating inability of most contributors to organize and articulate their thoughts. Like I've already mentioned, it's printed on thick paper, if printed on normal paper, it'd be half the size. The binding is not good, my copy has already fallen apart, and it's not that I use it all the time.
The only potentially fruitful side of this book is bibiography; iow, you can use it as an catalogue of diverse methods used in programming, and when you're interested in something, follow the bibliography in order to really learn about the topic. The bibliography is fairly extensive, obviously recent; includes many web-sites with papers, etc. So that's good of course.
Overall though, the book is mediocre and too expensive for what it is. I would't buy it for more than $. 'course I've already bought it for more, but you don't have to. My opinion is, it's a clear thumbs down.

Don't Waste your Money!
A customer
on October 5, 2000
Format: Hardcover
First Let me mention; I have a Degree in Computer Engineering and as a Senior in college, I took a class in Computer Graphics Using Open GL which required a solid understanding of Linear Algebra. I just bought this book and I am very disappointed. The book is a composition of many articles written by 40 authors. It mainly focuses on the theory behind game programming ( Brush up on your calculus and Linear Algebra...you'll need it! ). I read the book's sypnosis prior to purchasing this book and I don't think it adequately reflects the contents of the book. Also, the cover is mis-leading. This cover is just a teaser to entice you to buy the book. There is no referenced source code or executable for the front cover graphic. Indeed this cover is a game that will be released in the future. If you want to learn how to program video games using Open GL, find a better book. ( the openGL programmer's guide is a good start). As far as Game programming Gems, it's more like a ...um forget it. I intend to get my $75.00 back for this book.

"The place where 3 states come together" Top 5 Page for this destination Uzhhorod by IngaA
Uzhhorod Travel Guide: 69 reviews and 367 photos
A charming city in Trans Carpathian region, the "Wetsrnest" point of Ukraine.
It was a part of Austrian0Hungarian empire, but it belonged to its "hungarian" part. A lot of people there speak hungarian more fluently than ukrainian.
The city is "divided" in two parts by Uzh, which can seem quite small but it causes a lot of trouble in spring time when the waters come from Carpathian mountains and the city often suffers of flood. The city centre is typically European, with narrow streets and nice buildings of classic, barocco and renaissernce style.
- Pros:Atmosphere, wine, cogniak :))
- Cons:spring water floods
- In a nutshell:A little peace of Hungary in Ukraine
Reviews (5)
As usual, the most "visited" place is the city centre. Romantic narrow streets, ancient buildings, little bars and Uzh... more travel advice
Situated on the hull, it dominates the city. The typical ancient Europen castle, but unfortunately it is in a quite bad... more travel advice
Uzhgorod is close to Carpathian, the main ski destination of Ukraine. Locals go to the ski resort station Sczerbyn. more travel advice
In the centre of the city you will find a lot of restaurants, bars and others. Since Uzhhorod keeps many hungarian... more travel advice

I would like to revisit Uzhgorod some day, but it's a but too far from here... 1,500 km...
Greetings from sunny and bright London. Your friend Az.
some good tips about uzh:-)
Can I get some good pirogi's here? Smotherd in butter and onions?
I can imagine how it is romantic to swim in Uzhorod with you in the narrow romantic places ;-)
Very nice stories. It was some shopping trips from Belgrade to Uzhhorod, several years ago, but, unfortenatuly, I never joined.
Beautiful city center and a funny story at the bar!
Always a pleasure to read your pages. They are always full of good information and cool pics. Some day I will have to visit this part of the world.
What an interesting destination!
I would love to try skiing in Sczerbyn. Funny story!

Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
A man who drove through a crowd last year at the annual ZombieWalk held during Comic-Con International was convicted this morning of felony reckless driving. A 64-year-old woman was seriously injured in the incident.
Matthew Ponci, 47, could face three years in prison when he's sentenced on Dec. 11.
Legal | A judge has ordered Matthew Pocci to stand trial on charges of felony reckless driving for an incident at last year's SDCC ZombieWalk: San Diego that left one woman seriously injured. In a preliminary hearing held Wednesday, the defense argued that Pocci, who is deaf, was scared for his and his family's safety, and was just trying to drive through an opening in the crowd of spectators, but the prosecution countered that he had grown angry and impatient. [CBS 8 San Diego]

Legal | Witnesses testified Wednesday in a preliminary hearing that driver Matthew Pocci honked his horn and drove through the crowd of spectators last year during the annual SDCC ZombieWalk: San Diego, despite attempts by spectators stop him. Pocci, who is deaf, has been charged with felony reckless driving causing serious injury. But Pocci's fiancee, April Armstrong, said the crowd had mostly passed when he started the car, and that the people surrounding them were frightening: "People then started laughing at us. People were getting close to us. I started to freak out. I couldn't understand what was going on. I was looking back at my son, he was scared. I told Matt, 'please let's go.'" Armstrong also testified, however, she had told a neighbor she felt she couldn't tell the true story because of her relationship with Pocci. [San Diego Union-Tribune]
Legal | The San Diego Police Department is asking anyone with video of the July 26 car accident during the annual SDCC ZombieWalk: San Diego to come forward. Police already have several videos of the incident, in which a driver plowed into the crowd, injuring at least three people, but they are hoping to get additional information. [Fox 5 News]
Legal | A Tokyo District Court judge sentenced Hirofumi Watanabe to four years and six months in prison for sending more than 400 threatening letters to venues connected with the manga Kuroko's Basketball. The 35-year-old man admitted during his first day in court that he had sent the threatening letters, but he also refused to apologize or pay restitution and says he does not feel guilty. [Anime News Network]
Events | The driver who plowed through the crowd last month at the annual SDCC ZombieWalk: San Diego, injuring a 64-year-old passersby, has given an interview providing his version of the event, saying he had turned off the engine to wait for the parade to pass when participants began surrounding his car. The situation quickly escalated, he says, when a spectator sat on the hood and hit the windshield, shattering it, and another person opened the back door. "I got scared. That's when I plowed my car through the crowd," says the unidentified 48-year-old. "I had to do this to save my family because of the crowd. I couldn't tell if the parade was done." He adds, "I felt awful about it. I just couldn't believe that I actually hit the old lady." [iDeafNews, Times of San Diego]
The future of SDCC ZombieWalk: San Diego, held annually during Comic-Con International, is uncertain after a car drove into a crowd of participants and spectators Saturday, injuring three. A scheduled Oct. 26 event has been called off.
"Yes, the October walk is canceled," organizers posted on their Facebook page. "We are evaluating continuing at all, at this point."
Accounts of Saturday's incident vary, but the San Diego Police Department says Honda Accord driven by a deaf man was stopped at Second and Island avenues at 5:30 p.m. as the procession of hundreds of participants in zombie makeup lumbered by. After waiting several minutes, the 48-year-old driver started rolling slowly into the crowd because his children, who are also deaf, were frightened. According to police, several people the surrounded the car and began hitting it, shattering the windshield. That's when the father reportedly drove forward again, striking the 64-year-old woman. The crowd chased after the car as the family drove toward a police officer.
Three people were hurt Saturday in San Diego when a car drove through the annual ZombieWalk held in conjunction with Comic-Con International. A 64-year-old passersby was taken to the hospital with a possible broken arm, and the other two suffered only minor injuries.
Accounts of the incident vary, but the San Diego Police Department says a deaf family with small children was stopped at Second and Island avenues as the procession of hundreds of participants in zombie makeup lumbered by their car. Officer David Stafford told U-T San Diego that after waiting several minutes, the 48-year-old driver started rolling slowly into the crowd because his children were frightened.

Hey folks, I recently was forwarded an article about how most of the chocolate we eat is done so at the cost of slavery, including child slavery. Kids who don't get paid, barely eat and would want nothing more than to go to school and learn to read and write. Some are tortured. So no more M&Ms (or Nestle or Hershey or Toblerone, etc.) for me.

What kind of car is that red Toyota taxi? It's a really cool looking car.
Toyota Comfort, it was designed to be used as a taxi and its still being produced now since 1995, there's a relay cool supercharged version (not used as a taxi) called TRD Comfort GT-Z Supercharger (they are super rare), the comfort is RWD as well so fun
I hope she didn't get hit by that truck..
So Cool!

Fabricatorz developer Jon Phillips invaded Austin Texas, with members of StatusNet, for the annual group of interactive art, film, & music festivals known as South by Southwest (SXSW).
During the panel "Can you copyright a tweet?," Jon, Evan Prodromou, Fred Benenson, and Wendy Seltzer each spoke about aspects of micro-blogging including character limits. Have a look at Jon's presentation slide show below:
Post-SXSW, LibrePlanet kicked off, in Boston, where Free Network Service advocates converged. Jon said this of his time at the conference:
the hottest topic for StatusNet and myself were the sessions by Luis Villa, Bradley Kuhn, Mako, and Matt Lee on Free Network Services. We at StatusNet are big believers in Free Network Services. Please check out http://autonomo.us if you are interested in this topic.
If all this isn't enough content to rock an open source/micro-blogging/free software nut's world, another Fabricatorz developer, Brad Phillips, has created the following StatusNet-related badges for anyone to use and remix!

STOCKTON – A teenager who was home alone around midday Tuesday thwarted a would-be burglar by hitting him with a frying pan before the man ran away. Police have arrested a suspect, Victor Frank, 25.
The 14-year-old boy, who lives in the 100 block of West Lincoln Road, heard the doorbell ring around 12:20 p.m. Tuesday but ignored it. Apparently thinking no one was home, the would-be burglar went around to the back of the residence and climbed through a bedroom window into the home.
Meanwhile, the teen called his mother, and she called police. The boy armed himself with a frying pan, and when the opportunity arose he confronted the burglar and struck him with it. The burglar fled the scene on foot.
Frank was apprehended by an officer in the 6900 block of North El Dorado Street and arrested on suspicion of residential robbery.

Don't tell the voters how they should vote

The Times-News is an object, not a living organism. It has no feeling, doesn't write, think or spell; therefore desk jockeys can stop blaming their failures on the Times-News. It's the editor or others who draw a check who must take responsibility for errors, stupidity and crookedness.
Henceforth, we expect nothing short of openness and quality reporting. We the people deserve more honest coverage pertaining to county government and all results coming from commissioners meetings.
The moose at the table should also stop endorsing candidates, just stick to printing factual information. Residents are capable of marking a ballot. An unbiased paper with no political agenda would best serve the county. Does the Times-News have the personnel to meet this criteria?
The government is the people. We own the county and pay the taxes. Our voice should most definitely have preference over politicians.

DAVIS, Calif. (AP) -- A California university medical school neurosurgeon at the center of a scandal over experiments on dying brain cancer patients has taken a leave of absence.
The University of California, Davis, says Dr. J. Paul Muizelaar was taking his leave effective Thursday.
The Sacramento Bee (http://sacb.ee/103sf0D) says a statement from medical center chief Anne Madden Rice adds the leave will continue pending a review of four new malpractice claims involving Muizelaar.
The university last year banned Muizelaar and Dr. Rudolph J. Schrot from any research involving human subjects.
The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the Joint Commission, which accredits hospitals, are investigating.
The university was warned last month that serious deficiencies were uncovered and the hospital's Medicare funding was in jeopardy unless it comes into full compliance.

I have a case here where I am trying to figure out how a hex number is converted into a decimal number.
I had a similar case before, but found out that if I reversed the hex string, and swapped each second value (little-endian), then converting it back to a decimal value I got what I wanted, but this one is different.
here is the values we received
Value nr. 1 is Dec: 1348916578 Hex: 0a66ab46
I just have this one decimal/hex for now but I am trying to get more values to compare results.
I hope any math genius out there will be able to see what formula might been used here :)
