PRESTO was upgraded to reduce the time it takes to update all the readers on the bus. Your online or phone purchases are now transmitted to the buses at least three times every day — and as often as six times in a day!
This means the purchases you make in the evening will be waiting for you when you tap your card on the bus the next morning.
OC Transpo is currently the only transit system using a cellular connection for PRESTO — other transit companies are updated just once a day using a Wi-Fi connection.
Automatically renew your PRESTO pass Read More
When you order a registered card online it will have to be "activated" before you can use it. Activate your card at prestocard.ca, or by phone.

This is a great bundle for the price. I went to the actual website thinking it may be cheaper. It wasn't. I have to buy double of everything because I have twins(boy and girl) so this bundle at this price was great for me. Also another little tip, the games for the vtech innotab are cheaper online at walmart and target.
I bought this for my 4 year old Grand-daughter - she loves it!!!!! Of course, little people are very savvy about computers and Ipads, etc. This is perfect for her!
very usefull with innotab 2S .
There is no 3 at this time

It will be the most boring fight ever, Johnson would be too scared to commit to his punches and Gaye would also be too scared (like he was vs Valuev, except Johnson is much faster than Valuev). They would just follow each other around the ring for 12 rounds, with a combined compubox punches thrown of 100 for the entire fight, Gaye takes the decision as it is going to be in Britain.

With six puppies, my pen can get messy really fast. I hate to see wet little footprints all over, knowing they are tracking it all over. Paw Trax really holds the urine in the pad, even when all six of them soak it. I use the Paw Trax pad holder and it keeps the pad in place and prevents it becoming a shredded mess. The holder is great because it doesn't have latches like other holders. Puppies bite and chew the latches, ruining them and releasing the pad. Overall, this is a well made product and I will be placing another order.
They do not compare with other products at the same or lower price as the product is very small. I am hoping that I can use the other 49. I will probably have to put two down per night. NOT WHAT I expected for the money.
These training pads are a perfect size for a small dog and are super absorbent. The price through Walmart can't be beat!
We are currently house-training our puppy and these work great. We didn't have any issues with leakage and are very absorbent. I only wish they were a bit wider to give him more of an area to go, and to get additional uses out of.
Great product! Holds many ounces and doesn't smell.
Ok. Gets the job done.
Too small! Purchased these because Walmart discontinued their store brand (Pet Stop, I think). Would not buy again. Quality is good, but these are too small. Large puppies sometimes miss the pad although they think they are on it. Premium $ does not always insure the best product.
It is a good product it does as it says. I'd just wish it was a little large in size.

Ohio's two U.S. senators — Democrat Sherrod Brown and Republican Rob Portman — will introduce and speak on behalf of former Youngstown Mayor Jay Williams at his Tuesday confirmation hearing to head the federal Economic Development Administration.
The senators will make brief remarks in support of Williams, who is among four people seeking support from the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on Tuesday.
All four were nominated by President Barack Obama and need the confirmation of the Senate to be appointed to various posts in the administration.
They will answer questions asked by committee members.
The hearings are to begin at 2:30 p.m. with Williams scheduled to be the third person to be in front of the committee, though the order is subject to change, according to a Wednesday email from the committee.
The committee could recommend Williams be confirmed by the full Senate after Tuesday's hearing.
If that occurs, the Senate could vote on Williams as early as next week or in January.
Obama nominated Williams to head the EDA on Sept. 10. The job's official title is U.S. Department of Commerce's assistant secretary of commerce for economic development, according to the committee's email.
Also, the nomination process requires Williams to use his real name, Roy K.J. Williams. The K.J. is for Kojo Jawara. Williams is named after his paternal grandfather, though he's been called Jay since he was a baby.
The EDA leads the federal economic-development agenda by promoting innovation and collaboration and helping communities build the foundation for long-term growth, according to the White House.
After 61/2 years as Youngstown mayor, Williams resigned Aug. 1, 2011, to be the executive director of the U.S. Department of Labor's Office of Recovery for Auto Communities and Workers.
That position had him as the federal point man on helping communities and workers adversely impacted by the struggles of the domestic automotive industry.
On June 8, 2012, Williams was selected as deputy director of the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs, a job that had him work on behalf of the White House with elected officials from cities, towns and counties.
That appointment was for a year with Williams also handling the auto job responsibilities.
He continues to do that work while awaiting confirmation.
Others seeking the support of Environment and Public Works on Tuesday are Rhea Sun Suh as assistant secretary for fish and wildlife and parks at the Department of Interior, Victoria Baecher Wassmer as chief financial officer for the Environmental Protection Agency, and Thomas A. Burke as assistant administrator for research and development at the EPA.
Economic Development Agency? Jay is going to run that? Exactly what has he done at a local level to deserve such a position? He overlooked a squatting business on the Eastside that's what he did! Big Business in this country is going to be rent free!!!
Hey, he ran the auto bailout didn't he and all he ever knew about cars is how to drive one. Since when did you have to know anything to get a job in this Administration.
Car Czar had a nice ring so he took it and now he's ready to bring his experience there to lead the Economic Development Administration. What could possibly go wrong?
What a joke Williams is ,all it is black for black need to get Obama out of the White House
@nupanther Can you really tell me just one thing that Jay Williams did as mayor of Thugstown that was good. Now don't burn your brain out trying. This guy is just as big of a phony as the FOOL in the WH. They go together like two Blackeyed peas in a pod
Fantastic! Now all of the country will prosper as Youngstown has done. Good Grief!

Tisk Tisk this just seems to be too much work for so little pay off for something that can be done legit with some effort put forth. Yet, I really can't argue as this fighter is not very exciting and is not exactly fun. Not to mention some of the Veteran players online that will cream you if you're not careful.
My best streak legit is like 6 I don't know if I can get better than that nor do I care to up my skills enough to try and get this achievement without boosting. But I just know there's a character exploitation out there I can use to do it I know for a fact it's possible to do this legit!I just hate all the pain and repetetiveness required to get this when boosting aye aye aye what is one to do?
I just don't recall having to make a decision on how to obtain an achievement since "From C to Shining C" . I will continue to look into this one as 1000G in this game will be pretty sweet on my card I'm just not sure if I care enough to go for it.

Dr Addenbrooke's other interest is in non-invasive surgery. He is skilled in complex laparoscopic surgery including advanced endometriosis excision. For the first time in the Northern Rivers, Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) will be offered to women under Dr Addenbrooke's care – avoiding the need, in many patients, for traditional open incisions. Women undergoing TLH will often be pain free and ready for discharge on the day following surgery and enjoy a much more rapid recovery compared with open hysterectomy. Dr Addenbrooke also offers a wide range of vaginal surgeries for prolapse and bladder incontinence, including advanced procedures such as sacrospinous fixation, paravaginal repair and tension free vaginal tapes.

Stealth Bastard Deluxe, the wonderfully titled espionage platformer from Curve Studios has been dated and priced on Steam. It's a beefed up version of the studio's free-to-play edition that features more content and many ways to die. Get a run-down of the game's enhanced contents below.
Curve confirmed that the game will hit Steam on November 28th, priced $9.99 / £6.99 / €8.99. Last month we reported that Stealth Bastard Deluxe would feature 80 levels, a new map editor tool, and new gadgets.
Design director Jonathan Biddle said at the time, "The free version of Stealth Bastard, was only ever a sketch; an incomplete vision of what we really wanted to do. With the new release on Steam, we've now been given the opportunity to build on the original's foundations, and broaden the gameplay experience in every area. I can't wait to plaster brand new grins across the faces of existing Stealth Bastard fans, as well as new ones."
Want to play the free version before Stealth Bastard Deluxe hits Steam? Get playing here.

The TCU Horned Frogs, who were set to join the Big East next season, have received an invitation to join the Big 12 Conference. Negotiations between TCU and the Big 12 are ongoing, but the move is imminent.
TCU has been a member of the Mountain West Conference since 2005. Between 1923 and 1995, the Horned Frogs were members of the Southwest Conference before it broke up and became what is now the Big 12. Their move will reignite in-state rivalries with Baylor, Texas and Texas Tech.
The Big 12 was temporarily down to nine members after the Texas A&M Aggies bolted for the SEC. Reports indicate that the Big 12 could expand up to 12 schools, although Oklahoma and Texas prefer to remain at ten. Some of the schools mentioned for the 11th and 12th slots are BYU, Louisville and West Virginia.
Since the Horned Frogs committed to joining the Big East last year, they will have to pay a $5 million buyout. However, they will not be held to the 27-month waiting period since their Big East membership wasn't official until July 1, 2012. That means TCU can start Big 12 play in 2012.
Two schools that will be held to the Big East waiting period are Pittsburgh and Syracuse, who last month accepted an offer to join the ACC. With the loss of those two schools plus TCU, the Big East is now down to six football members. That puts the conference on unstable ground.
The latest in conference realignment will also shuffle future football schedules for many teams. Just two months ago, TCU announced their Big East schedule for 2012. Throw that out the window for now.
I hear the Big East is now about to invite UCF and ECU.
ECU hoops would be competitive in the Big East……….with DePaul.
Go texas ou sucks
Go texas
TCU shouldn't even have to think about this. It's a no brainer; GO WITH THE BIG XII
I agree with nick
Tcu is beast they should go to big 12
the new big east is cusa2.0
I am stupid

I own this album on vinyl and I noticed that the track listing is different from the one listed here. According to the vinyl recording and its liner notes the tracks are as follows:
Side one:
Overture: The Trolly Song, Over the Rainbow, The Man that Got Away
When You're Smiling
Medley: Almost Like Being in Love, This Can't Be Love
Do it Again
You Go to My Head
Alone Together
Side two:
Who Cares? (As long as you care for me)
Puttin' on the Ritz
How Long has this been Going On?
Just You, Just Me
The Man that Got Away
San Francisco
I Can't Give You Anything but Love
That's Entertainment
Side three:
Come Rain or Come Shine
You're Nearer
A Foggy Day
If Love Were All
Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart
Stormy Weather
Side four:
Medley: You Made Me Love You, For Me and My Gal, The Trolley Song
Rock-A-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody
Over the Rainbow
After You've Gone
The main difference is "Tracks 13 and 14" seem to be inverted in the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gabrielspark (talk • contribs) 00:39, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

It's not a perfect comparison, but there are similarities between the season recently completed by football's New England Patriots and the one being experienced by the NHL's Detroit Red Wings.
The Wings were almost Patriot-perfect in the way in which they waltzed through the opening four months of the season, but recently they stumbled into six straight defeats, the team's worst losing streak in 17 years. It seemed the Wings were hitting a speed bump in the final portion of their season in the same way the Pats were seriously challenged, and very nearly beaten, by ordinary teams like Philadelphia and Baltimore in the final weeks of their regular season.
We all know, of course, how that fantasy football story ended, with the 18-0 New Englanders stunned on Super Bowl Sunday by the New York Giants.
It could be that the Red Wings are headed for a similar conclusion, particularly since the Western Conference is packed with tough opponents, from defending champion Anaheim to hard-nosed Calgary to talented San Jose. Vancouver, led by superb goalie Roberto Luongo, could trip up anybody.
And if the Wings get past those obstacles, any number of upset-minded Eastern Conference clubs would await.
There's even a Patriots-Red Wings comparison in the fact that while quarterback Tom Brady was hindered to some degree by an ankle injury in the playoffs, the Wings have lost brilliant defenseman and captain Nicklas Lidstrom for at least three weeks after he suffered a right knee injury on Monday night against Colorado. In his previous 15 seasons, Lidstrom had missed only 22 games to injury.
Throw in the fact that Detroit coach Mike Babcock is a keen admirer of Bill Belichick and the Patriots' style of organization, and there are clearly parallels. Babcock, you should know, is a frequent visitor to Belichick's Web site and reads the New England coach's press conference remarks. He felt the impact of the Patriots' defeat to the Giants in a very personal way.
"I was hoping the Patriots would win," Babcock said in a recent interview. "I'm a big fan of their approach. But yeah, somebody can always beat you in the end."
The differences, however, between Detroit's hockey heroes and New England's football juggernaut may be these.
First, Detroit's problems of late may be just the adversity the club needs.
Second, the Wings have another six days to try to improve their team in a very significant way.
Let's deal with the adversity issue. The two-month Stanley Cup odyssey is unique from other sports in a number of ways, but it has been suggested the most significant challenge in trying to win four consecutive best-of-seven series is the ability to absorb defeat and seeming disaster one night, and bounce back two nights later or even the next day.
The theory, then, is that teams which move too easily through the regular season don't build up the mental scar tissue that allows them to have the necessary resilience in the grinding postseason, when the most important quality of any team may be to quickly forget painful defeats.
Last spring, the Wings romped through the then-weak Central Division in the regular season, and it's arguable that one element in their conference-finals loss to Anaheim was the Ducks' greater appetite for the more bitter elements of postseason hockey.
Right now, it's fair to say the Wings are absorbing a few scars. Of late, they've lost to Los Angeles and Toronto, two of the NHL's worst teams, and were hammered 5-1 last week by Columbus, a hard-checking but offensively limited club.
Along with Lidstrom's injury, Henrik Zetterberg has had to deal with a back problem this season, while winger Dan Cleary is out with a fractured jaw after being hit by a teammate's shot in Toronto. On Wednesday, meanwhile, both defenseman Brian Rafalski (groin) and goaltender Dominik Hasek (hip flexor) were placed on injured reserve. Hasek has missed the past five games, and Rafalski the past three.
Throw in blueliner Nicklas Kronwall's long absence with a broken clavicle, and three of the club's top defenseman are now out.
Lidstrom was injured when he was body checked by Colorado's Ian Laperriere, a hit that may have been an elbow and that left the elegant Swede dazed. He injured his knee falling to the ice. The Wings were enraged by the hit, and soon afterward Detroit enforcer Aaron Downey confronted Laperriere and the two dropped their gloves; the Wings might have been looking for such a response in the playoffs last spring when Anaheim's Chris Pronger left Tomas Holmstrom bloodied and semiconscious with an illegal hit into the side boards.
"When the elbows are up and you hit a five-time Norris [Trophy] winner, arguably one of the best defensemen ever to play the game, it's a joke, in my mind," Downey said. "So the message is simple. The next time anyone runs one of our guys in a way that shouldn't be done, then a message will be sent."
Later in the game, Babcock and Colorado assistant coach Tony Granato became embroiled in a shouting match, sparking memories of earlier confrontations between Scotty Bowman and Avs coach Marc Crawford during the heyday of the once fiery Detroit-Colorado rivalry.
A string of losses, some injuries and a little ugliness on ice, then, have forced the Wings to battle more than they've had to in most recent seasons. Since last winning the Stanley Cup in 2002, the Wings have earned at least 109 points in every regular season but have made it as far as the conference finals only once. Having some problems in this regular season, then, may prove to be a blessing in disguise.
The second difference between the Pats and Wings, meanwhile, may be that Detroit still has the opportunity to enhance its roster in a way that either isn't available to NFL clubs in the final stages of the regular season or simply isn't done.
The NHL trade deadline arrives Tuesday, and the Wings are expected to be a prominent player in the process. While a sluggish trade market has some wondering how much action there will be before the 3 p.m. ET deadline, there were 25 deals on the final day of last season alone, and right now there are significant numbers of would-be sellers and buyers urgently looking for pre-deadline bargains.
Detroit, under GM Ken Holland, has never been afraid to make big moves at the deadline, moves that included sacrificing major chunks of the team's future. Last January, the Wings moved junior prospect Shawn Matthias to Florida in exchange for veteran winger Todd Bertuzzi, a shadow of the power forward who once scored 46 goals in a single season but had his career altered by a long suspension received for his March 2003 on-ice attack on Colorado's Steve Moore.
Bertuzzi was average at best for the Wings in the 2007 postseason, scoring three goals, while Matthias starred for Team Canada at this year's World Junior Championship and appears to have a bright future.
Right now, the Wings have been linked to marquee players like the Blue Jackets' Sergei Fedorov, a former Detroit star, Atlanta sniper Marian Hossa and Toronto Maple Leafs captain Mats Sundin. Any of those players could enhance the Detroit roster, as would a rock-ribbed defender like Columbus back-liner Adam Foote or a blue-line speedster like Brian Campbell of the Buffalo Sabres, particularly with all the injuries on the Wings' blue line these days.
To help Downey in the toughness department, meanwhile, Holland appears set to sign former Wings winger Darren McCarty, who last played for Detroit in 2004 and has since seen his career derailed by injuries and personal problems. McCarty has been playing for the team's AHL affiliate in Grand Rapids, Mich., and is expected to be signed before Tuesday's deadline.
So if you were doing a half-full analysis of Detroit's season, you'd say trouble will toughen this team and deadline additions will make it even better than it was when it tore up the league in December and January.
The half-empty perspective, meanwhile, might wonder if this story is starting to sound awfully familiar, something like a recent football soap opera.

The tour was great. Nice ride on the boat. Didn't realize that to get to the other part would have so much walking. That was hard on us. The views were amazing.
The tour was great. Guide was knowledgeable and his English was good. We saw many different areas in Vienna. The boat ride was an enjoyable interlude.
A must. Amazing views and excellent guide (George)
Esteban Escarez United States of ...
My husband and I loved the Vienna sightseeing tour with a Danube boat ride during our brief stay at such beautiful and historical city in Germany.Our palace guide was very knowledgeable and detailed-oriented person. We must say that we almost missed the whole tour altogether...It was the courtesy of a Vienesse young man who was able to call a taxi to drive us directly to the bus station who saved our tour. Danke Gundel...wherever you are... And what a tour that was: Fantastic!
Very pleasant and romantic.
This was a really enjoyable tour. We were collected from our hotel at the specified time, the coach tour had a knowledgeable guide and we saw lots of landmarks. We really enjoyed the relaxing sail on the Danube into the city and it ended at a convenient central point. Ideal for first time visitors, especially if your time is short and you want to see a lot. Highly recommended.
It was excellent.We got a pleasant surprise,when we got a 2 hour tour of Vienna before we went on the Danube, which was for 1 hour.Our trip overall was the best holiday I have had in 2 years. The food the people the weather were super.I am unable to post on my photos.
The city tour and the Danube Boat ride was just amazing. Very comfortable ride, an excellent crew and staff, nice cafe and patisserie.
Irene USA
If you are looking for an introductory tour of Vienna, this is a good choice! I didn't really know what to expect but I was glad that we saw some sites that are a little harder to get to on your own. Hundertwasserhaus , Beethoven's house, the Vienna Woods, etc. are all not that easy to get to if you only have a few days in the city and were some of my favorites from the tour. The cruise was unlike any cruise I've ever been on because we went through the Danube canal at one point and had to wait for the water to even out and for the canal to open. This was really cool and allowed us to see really beautiful sites of Vienna. The drive to the Vienna Woods was a good end to the day since the scenery was so nice and we got a panoramic view of the entire city once we got to the top.
It is a very good tour, started with the sightseeing on all the major sites and then went to the pier to board the boat. We enjoyed it and would recommend this tour.
Excellent guide, beautiful serene boat ride!
RLlanas USA
Wished we would have done this on our first day in Vienna!
This was a great and informative trip. The information was helpful and interesting and the breaks were just fine. The boat trip was lovely. Thank you for arranging this tour.
Lovely delightful trip. Recomend to all interested.
A great way to discover Vienna, especially the boat ride.
Very Good
An excellent introduction to Vienna . Suggest anyone on first visit does this at the beginning of their visit as guide gives good tips on places to visit that are not highlighted in many book guides
Susan G United Kingdom
Danube Boat Ride Shhh...Quiet please. You could hear a pin drop. This is not a tour of the river or city lights but a non-eventful float on the Danube. Vienna Sightseeing Insightful, interesting, easy, ...Excellent!!!
Richard K USA
This trip was an excellent start to some of the highlights of the city. Well done.
Very enjoyable to see all the buildings from the water instead of a bus.
Highly recommended.
This was a great tour. We learned a lot from our very nice tour guide while we were traveling through Vienna on a very comfortable tour bus. And the boat ride along the Danube was great. There is food and beverage available for purchase on the boat, we got to go through a lock along the river and see parts of Vienna we know we'd not have seen otherwise. Then that finishes off with the bus taking you up into the woods for a great view of the city and more so the chance to see a beautiful, quaint part of Vienna that is completely opposite of the city life. Very enjoyable and just the right length.
Was a good tour.. but it would be good to be dropped back at your motel..
They did not pick-me up from my hotel which was listed(Marriot Airport) it was a big in convenient.The tour itself was excellent tks to Olga our spanish guide
To many languises makes it very "summery"
This tour is by bus and boat. The tour company picked us up at the hotel which was a very nice way to start the tour. We were with a small group of 6 persons with our tour guide, Tom. We toured many of the important areas of Vienna with past and present significance to the city. We also went to Conzel, an area just outside of the city in the hills. Unfortunately it was raining and the city views were somewhat obscured but beautiful none the less. The driver then drove us to a tour boat on the Danube River. It has a restaurant on board for refreshments and food. The ride was very relaxing and again we saw city sights from another perspective of the river.

The authors have attempted to state underlying principles of the practice of surgery and to correlate surgical nursing procedures with these principles. They have been fairly successful, though the correlation might be improved. In some instances the treatment represented to be indicated is apparently quite individualistic and does not conform to the accepted principles of many surgeons. There is a tendency to encourage the nurse to take over a considerable part of what is still regarded as the practice of medicine. The illustrations might be improved in order to cause them to be of educational value and not merely illustrations. Submitting this edition to a representative group of recognized surgeons and conforming to their recommendations might result in a more practical, worth-while third edition.

The Height of Ambition
Published: September 8, 2002
(Page 3 of 15)
Other players quickly appreciated the boldness of the plan. Austin Tobin, executive director of the Port of New York Authority (today called the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey), made the case in May 1960 that his agency -- until then a desperate witness, if not an actual accomplice, to the shriveling of New York's port -- should be the one to build the project. ''The world today stands on the brink of a new era in international trade,'' Tobin said, declaring that New York and the Port Authority should lead the way. As a state-sponsored entity, the Port Authority had a powerful tool at its disposal: the ability to take ownership of land by eminent domain.
Tobin had already decided whom he wanted to oversee the project: Guy Tozzoli, who at the time was planning the 1964 New York World's Fair alongside Moses. Tozzoli, then 40, had construction in his blood -- his father was a small-time home builder in northern New Jersey -- and he shared Moses' love of megaprojects. Once Tobin gave him the job, Tozzoli would take the bigger-is-better principles he learned from Moses and apply them to the creation of the World Trade Center.
It didn't take long before the grand proclamations of Rockefeller, Tobin and Tozzoli collided with prosaic reality. Although nothing big in New York gets built without some resistance, this particular project would spark a series of messy all-out brawls. The first objection came from the State of New Jersey, which with New York finances and gives legislative approval to Port Authority projects. As soon as the Port Authority issued a detailed proposal in March 1961 for a trade center along the East River, New Jersey politicians balked. ''What's in it for us?'' they wanted to know.
The Port Authority came up with a quick maneuver to make the project more attractive to New Jersey: moving the proposed trade center to the West Side, to a site occupied by the terminal for a failing commuter railroad that linked Manhattan and New Jersey. The Port Authority offered to take over the railroad -- it would become the PATH -- and New Jersey politicians were mollified. But the move came at a cost. The railroad was already operating under bankruptcy protection; by agreeing to take it over, the authority would almost certainly incur annual losses in the millions.
There was another problem with the West Side: in its new location, the trade center would obliterate Radio Row, a crowded bazaar for cut-rate electronic gadgetry that was one of Manhattan's most vibrant shopping areas. The uproar from Radio Row was like nothing the Port Authority had ever encountered. Merchants paraded down Greenwich Street with a black-draped coffin on their shoulders. ''Here Lies Mr. Small Businessman,'' read a placard at the foot of the coffin. ''Don't Let the P.A. Bury Him.''
But the Port Authority had a solution that would take care of both the railroad's looming financial losses and, with some shrewd public-relations work, the ruckus on Radio Row: get bigger still. With the help of Gov. Nelson Rockefeller, David's brother, who backed new legislation, the Port Authority vastly increased the rentable office space, bringing the total to a staggering 10 million square feet -- double what David Rockefeller originally proposed.
To most city planners, a figure like that would have sounded almost farcical. It represented, by itself, more office space than existed in all of Houston, more than in Detroit or downtown Los Angeles. A truly colossal endeavor like this would not only offer the prospect of huge real-estate profits, money that would be needed to offset losses on the commuter railroad. It would also make the Radio Row merchants look like mere obstructionists standing in the way of the inevitable march of progress. Tozzoli took to calling the goal of 10 million square feet the Program, a term -- and an idea -- that he would relentlessly hammer into the minds of the architects, engineers and bureaucrats who worked on the center.
But now that the scale of the project had grown so spectacularly, it drew the ire of a new and more potent enemy: Lawrence A. Wien, an owner of the Empire State Building and a lawyer, entrepreneur, philanthropist and baron of New York real estate. In circles of the polite and the powerful, Wien was not as easily dismissed as the Radio Row protesters. He was a confident, polished orator who seemed to dominate any room he walked into, and he turned his lush, thickly carpeted headquarters on the 48th floor of the Lincoln Building into an elegant spearhead of resistance to the trade center.
In a September 1964 letter to Gov. Richard J. Hughes of New Jersey, Wien called the Port Authority ''an unconquerable Frankenstein'' creating a vast, government-backed real-estate venture that would cheat the city's private developers. He rounded up virtually every major real-estate power in Midtown and created the Committee for a Reasonable World Trade Center, which took out full-page attack ads in city newspapers. By adding acres of excess office space, Wien said, the trade center would create a catastrophe in the real-estate market on a scale not seen since the Depression. Wien went further, saying that the gigantism of the trade-center project was not just economically unrealistic; it was flat-out dangerous. The center's tremendous size made it ''radical and admittedly experimental,'' Wien's committee charged; the center could endanger thousands in the case of a fire or an explosion. Wien would ultimately suggest, in his most Cassandra-like moment, that an airplane might someday hit the World Trade Center, with disastrous consequences.

What is in this article?:
Price will be the major determinant of how many acres Mississippi peanut producers plant this year, says Mike Howell, Mississippi State University Extension peanut specialist at Poplarville. "That's a big question right now, and nobody has any real insight," he said at the annual convention of the Mississippi Agricultural Consultants Association.
Growers looking for $600-$700 contracts
"There's still grower interest in peanuts, but price will determine what kind of acreage we end up with. If we can get a $600 contract, I think Mississippi will be in the 15,000 to 18,000 acre range. If we can get something in the $700 range — and I think that's where we need to be, given the carryover, and to be competitive with $1-plus cotton — we could see 20,000 to 25,000 acres."
Acreage in the state last year was 18,137, down slightly from 2009. About 50 percent of the acreage is in the Lucedale area, 20 percent in the Aberdeen-Columbus area, 20 percent in the Greenwood/Tchula area, and the rest in the Port Gibson area. "The 2010 season got off to a really good start," Howell says, "with only minor weather delays. Insect and disease pressures were low for most of the season, although we had a fall armyworm outbreak early in the year, particularly in the south part of the state, and later in the season white mold was a major problem in the south.
"The north part of the state was dry most of the year, and the last six weeks to two months of the season we were really wishing we could get some more rain. That led to some yield loss, with pods not filling out, particularly for the later-planted peanuts. And farmers just weren't able to get diggers in the field because the ground was so hard."
With the increased interest in peanuts in Mississippi in recent years, several research projects have been launched, and in 2009, with funds from the Mississippi Peanut Promotion Board, two Peanut Learning Centers were established, one at Hamilton, the other at Lucedale, to educate growers and others about peanuts and peanut production.

Thibodaux High student serves on state's education board
Published: Wednesday, June 9, 2010 at 11:55 a.m.

THIBODAUX — What started as a student council position in sixth grade has led 16-year-old Mike Labat to a seat on the board that oversees K-12 education throughout Louisiana.
The Board of Elementary and Secondary Education doled out more than $3 billion to local districts this past school year, ultimately deciding things like what textbooks students use to how their lessons are taught. And Labat, who will be a senior in the fall at Thibodaux High, is there to give them a student's perspective.
"I get to voice my opinion," he said. "Instead of assuming what students would like or how they'd react to it, they have a student in there."
Though Labat doesn't have an official vote, he gets to offer his input and help with projects. For example, the board is planning to send a career-opportunity pamphlet to students across the state. Labat will review it and report back to the board about whether the pamphlet is something the students will appreciate and use.
Students must apply for the board position through the Louisiana Association of Student Councils, and Labat competed against a handful of top high-schoolers from across the state. The application process included an interview with questions about the students' background and their knowledge of the state board.
Labat said he studied hard for the interview, during which he received invaluable help from Frank Pasqua, one of the student supervisors in the Lafourche School Board Central Office.
Mike's mother, Kay Labat, praised Pasqua's involvement with students.
"He just mentors those kids from Thibodaux High that try out for this position," said Kay, wife of Curtis Labat. "He's done an amazing job."
But Mike Labat, who has been involved in student council since his days at East Thibodaux Middle, is no stranger to public leadership.
His membership in student council got him involved in the state association, where for the past three years he has been a staff member at the association's annual summer workshop. Mike's older brother, Matt, is a former president of the association.
Mike Labat will soon take up another role at the state level, joining the Louisiana Legislative Youth Advisory Council. Council members act as liaisons between Louisiana students and the state Legislature.
One goal of the council is to get student membership positions on local school boards across the state. As a member of the state's highest K-12 education board, that is a topic where Labat can offer a unique perspective.
Ultimately, he said, it's not just about leadership, but about using his talents to help others.
"This has been the most incredible process," said Labat, who plans to pursue a career in pharmacology. "It's a privilege and an

Hewlett-Packard Seeks Dismissal of Investor Hurd Suit
Hewlett-Packard Co. asked a Delaware judge to dismiss a shareholder lawsuit seeking documents related to former Chief Executive Officer Mark Hurd's departure, saying the request is "overbroad" and fails to set forth a basis to find probable wrongdoing.
Shareholder Ernesto Espinoza sued the company in November over access to corporate documents detailing an internal investigation of Hurd's relationship with a contractor and the board's subsequent decision to award him as much as $53 million in severance pay. Espinoza lacks a proper purpose for the inspection, HP said a filing today in Delaware Chancery Court in Wilmington.
Espinoza "has not set forth a credible basis to find probable corporate wrongdoing or mismanagement by the board," HP's lawyers said in the filing.
Hurd resigned in August after the Palo Alto, California-based company found that he violated business conduct standards by trying to conceal a personal relationship with former marketing contractor Jodie Fisher. HP's finding came after Hurd was accused of sexual harassment by Fisher. HP found that Hurd didn't violate its harassment policy.
Espinoza said in his complaint that HP had grounds to terminate Hurd for cause based on the company's severance plan. He wants minutes of board meetings in which the company's investigation of Hurd was discussed.
'Relevant' Documents
HP said today in its filing that it already provided Espinoza with "relevant, non-privileged board minutes," leaving a report on the internal investigation the only document in dispute, according to the court filing.
HP became aware of Hurd's relationship after he gave a letter from Gloria Allred, Fisher's attorney, to Michael Holston, the company's general counsel, according to the filing. HP's board then directed that an investigation be done. During the course of the probe, HP's outside counsel interviewed Hurd's former aide Caprice Fimbres as well as Hurd. The outside lawyers didn't interview Fisher, according to the filing.
Fimbres, who introduced Hurd to Fisher, resigned in August, the Wall Street Journal reported on Aug. 12.
HP said in court papers that it doesn't believe the Allred letter is confidential, as claimed by Hurd. The company agreed to designate the letter as "Confidential at the Request of Mark Hurd," to allow Hurd "an opportunity to reach an agreement with shareholders' counsel," according to the filing.
Hurd asked to intervene in the shareholder suit in December to keep the letter sealed. The letter was sent by Allred to Hurd "for the purpose of attempting to arrange a private mediation and/or achieve private resolution" to a potential dispute between Hurd and Fisher, attorneys for the former CEO said in court papers.
The case is Espinoza v. Hewlett-Packard Co., CA6000, Delaware Court of Chancery (Wilmington).
