Here's how RW members rated this race (160 votes).
In short: A reasonable first effort in very challenging conditionsIn full: Positives were the enthusiastic marshalls and support despite the poor conditions.I made the course about .2 miles too long and believe the problem was somewhere between 6 and 8 miles as watch was spot on at 6 and then .27 out at 8?Agree with most other suggestions for improvement. I'd add please put the number ranges for the baggage trucks high up on the trucks themselves where they can be seen.I'm sure the event will grow Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Made the best of a bad situation In full: Luckily I enjoy running in the rain so the weather wasn't to much of bother once I got going and warmed up. Spectators and marshals were amazing in the horrid conditions! Having run in Milton Keynes before I knew the course wasn't completely flat, however I think this needed to be made more aware in the description. Water stations were awesome but one thing I did notice was the lack of toilets on route. Overall I really enjoyed it and ran a brilliant time! The only thing that almost spoiled the day for me was when I finished I had to go around and ask about 10 different race organisers/helpers where the meeting points were so I could find my dad. Not a single one knew what i was going on about and most were quite rude and told me to get out the way. Luckily I stumbled across them eventually! With a little sunshine this race could be wonderful! I'll maybe do it again! Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Good but could have been greatIn full: OK the weather was poor but...Ive been to football at that stadium with 15000 people and parking is less of an issue than with 3000 runners. Baggage lorries? Why use them when you have a stadium to store bags in. In London with 40,000 runners they move your bag 26m and have it ready for you when you finish. In MK you queue for 20 mins and they cant find it. Could have used the stadium so much better, everyone was crowded around the one entrance that was open, in such atrocious conditions why not open more doors? Goody bag poor. Support amazing, marshals the best. Decent first attempt but lessons to be learned.Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Good first try despite the weatherIn full: Parked in the nearby industrial area without any problems. Didn't use baggage store so can't comment on this. The course was obviously wet but organisers did well to keep the event from being cancelled. Didn't run as quick as I'd hoped but course was very flat with real PB potential. Overall I thought the event went well all things considered. With the bad weather more of the stadium could have been available for shelter for runners and spectators alike. I would also like to see more portaloos at the start and a better goody bag but I would certainly consider it again. Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: awful weather ruined a well planned eventIn full: i enjoyed the twists and turns, short hills and never knowing what was around the next corner.My biggest fear about doing my first marathon was long boring sections and this was not the case for MK, the route kept my mind occupied and helped me to keep my pace in check. I dint experience any of the issues around parking and baggage as i managed to park about 3/4 mile away in a quiet residential area and left my change of clothes in the car. Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Decent 1st effort but victim of the weatherIn full: Decent 1st effort at organising a big city (or town?) marathon. If the day had better weather there would have been few problems. Biggest problems were no space blankets at the finish and the long wait to reclaim your bag (and dry clothes). The marshals, water stops and spectators were nothing short of superb. Hope this event goes from strength to strength as they could make it special.Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Could have been so much better...In full: I'm not going to repeat all of the clear areas for improvement, but I think the organisers did well in artrocious conditions. However a strategic decision should have been made to bring the baggage inside because frankly the conditions for runners standing around in the rain and wind and waiting up to 20 minutes to get their bags was nothing short of dangerous. So much more could have been made of the finish, the race was long and uncomfortably twisty and undulating, the goody bag was a disgrace and the congestion in the stadium was not acceptable. That said the crowds were great and so were the water stations - but please leave the tops on! Such a shame about the weather - kept may people away and it seems that virtually all of the bands and entertainment cancelled. I also felt that the course was a bit tedious and 'samey'. However there is a good marathon to be had in Milton Keynes and I'm sure next year will be spot on. I might even come back.Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Valued First Attempt, if they learn lessons for next year then expect this Marathon to growIn full: Mostly all said, so won't list again. I have read many but not all reviews and there is little that I disagree strongly with, while some things are more important than others, if the organisers take a step back and try and take the positive from all and act to address they have the feedback here to create an excellent event. A "luckier" event might take many years of good weather to get all these areas of feedback!Lots of positive if taken. Next year is key to judging the quality of the event.Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: Can only get better.....In full: The organisation definately needs some work, but as this was the first attempt at a fairly sizeable marathon there were always going to be some development areas. Personally, I enjoyed the atrocious weather as I've always loved running in the rain, but that's just me. Weather is not something that Race Directors can control as far as I'm aware, so there should be no critisim on that front. One big issue I did have though was the complete abscence of the shuttle buses which were supposed to return us to the Furzon Lake car park. I waited along with many others for the best part of an hour at the bus stop and then finally gave up and walked the 1.8 miles back to the car. At no point did any buses pass the ever increasing group of people also walking back, so I am still left wondering where they went? So overall, there were some problems, but good to have another large event on the annual marathon calendar. Good medal too, which is, of course, by far the most important thing! Date of review: May 2, 2012
In short: A few glitches to be ironed out, but a good first-time effort on the part of the organisersIn full: Things the organisers can't change:* The weather!* Whether or not you run a good time!(both of which seem to have coloured people's perceptions of the race)* The scenery, which, to be fair, would obviously have looked a lot nicer in gleaming sunshine.Things the organisers could consider changing:* Don't describe the course as being flat - there were lots of dispiriting ups and downs through underpasses, across bridges, etc (which are fine if you're expecting them but a rather nasty shock if you're not).* Make it clear that people didn't HAVE to go into the stadium before the start - I didn't go in, and was directed to loos with no queues just a short distance away in the area outside the stadium (though clearly other people cottoned on as the queues built up after that).* Refine the parking arrangements. Having grudgingly paid extra (on top of a fairly expensive race entry fee) for guaranteed parking, no-one at the car park even looked at my booking confirmation! So, presuambly, some cars might have been admitted even if they had't paid.* Consider including the t-shirt in the race entry fee. Again, it just feels like a bit of an insult to be asked to pay for "extras" on top of a £35 entry fee.* Arrange a bit of fanfare at the finish! Perhaps there was no gantry because it would have been at risk in the wind, but I didn't see the finish until I drew level with the clock, which was finally a relief!* Suggest to runners that, with the style of timing chip provided, you safety pin it rather than rely on it sticking to itself in the rain! Edging around a puddle in about the 3rd mile I looked down to see where I was stepping and noticed that my chip had come unstuck, though it was still lying under my laces. Luckily I noticed, and stopped to secure it with a pin, but I'd have been gutted if it had come off and I hadn't got an official time!Overall I have no major complaints (other than about the weather!!) and hope that with several tweaks (and better weather next year!!) this could be a race that grows and improves.Date of review: May 2, 2012

The long lines at the polls, the glut of millionaire money that poured into candidates' coffers, the efforts to undercut voters' rights under the guise of preventing "voter fraud."
» The latest on traffic, delays and road construction delivered to your mobile phone. Click to sign up to receive text alerts!
Before this chance for post-election reflection completely vanishes, though, let's talk election reform -- and begin to push for it.
Congress needs to act to clean up the mishmash of rules, modernize the process, and address the real problems, not the overpoliticized and underproved claims of voter fraud. We also need to get the glut of money from a few tamped down to size, restoring balance and empowering smaller donors. And that's the short list.
The country dodged a bullet on Nov. 6. Thank you, Mitt Romney. Virtually imploding in many battleground states, the election was not nearly as close as many had assumed it would be. Thank you, Nate Silver, for reading real data, not tea leaves.
We could still be counting chads.
States operate under a hodgepodge of laws. According to the Brennan Center for Justice: "In Florida, a recount must be completed within 12 days, but in Ohio it could take more than a month. Automatic recounts are triggered in Ohio if the margin of victory is less than 0.25 percent, and in Colorado, Florida, and Pennsylvania if it's less than 0.5 percent."
This doesn't mean there is post-election peace and tranquility in the land.
A week after the election, Arizona officials had managed to make it through half of the state's more than 600,000 uncounted ballots, but several close races were still undecided.
The longer the tabulating goes on, the more chance the public will begin to question the fairness of the process -- as they should. Many of the uncounted ballots were cast provisionally. That occurs when there are discrepancies in a voter's registration. Why that occurred in such high numbers is now the glaring question.
This is a nation that has computer programs capable of tracking every online purchase, deciphering what link you may click next, and a range of other digital wonders once considered Orwellian concepts.
And yet, many voters still cast their vote by filling in little dots with a stubby pencil, like grade-schoolers taking a multiple-choice exam. Some people we're left scrounging for the birth certificate that mom squirreled away to prove where they were born.
It's quaint, but not in a pleasing retro way. Developing democracies need to show the purple-ink-stained fingerprint of the just-voted. The United States can do better.
Much could be accomplished by simply using available technology. Some states electronically transfer data from their motor vehicle offices to election officials. That negates the chances for human error in data entry and aids in keeping people's current address in the system.
Online voter registration is another measure shown to ease data foul-ups and increase voter registrations.
Presumably, one would think Republicans might go for this, too, although the party led many of the efforts that became more about voter suppression, rather than voter empowerment. Put confusing initiatives for provisional and absentee ballots in that box, along with redundant processes to prove eligibility.
"Voter fraud" became such a rallying cry that any effort to attack it, however poorly thought out, drew support. As the Brennan Center has consistently pointed out, much of what is labeled vote fraud simply isn't. Inconsistencies in records, inaccurately entered data, multiple similar names in a database and a range of solvable problems are the real culprits.
Wrongly categorizing the problem means remedies often miss their mark. Instead, they cause new complications. Among the worst offenses, is the disenfranchisement of eligible voters.
Same ballot, my fellow Americans. We need to get on the same ballot here.
Along the way, we could also re-energize enthusiasm for the civic duty of voting.
Part of the reason people don't vote is the often-repeated line that "My vote doesn't matter." Congress can change that allegation.

The Globalization Research Center-Africa HIV/AIDS Lecture Series presents Edwin Bayrd discussing the South African Altarpiece. The altarpiece will be opened for viewing as well.
Tuesday, February 13, 20071:00 PM - 2:00 PM208 Glorya Kaufman HallUCLA campusLos Angeles, CA 90095
Edwin Bayrd is the Associate Director of the UCLA AIDS Institute.
Edwin Bayrd is the Associate Director for administration, communications, development, and marketing at the UCLA AIDS Institute. Before joining the Institute in 2002, Mr. Bayrd edited and published HIV Newsline, a treatment-update journal that was distributed, free of charge, to virtually every healthcare provider in the United States who treats HIV-infected individuals. Prior to founding HIV Newsline, Mr. Bayrd edited a number of medical journals, among them Cardiovascular Medicine. He received a Jesse H. Neale Award for the new departments and features that he developed as part of the cover-to-cover redesign of that magazine.
Since he joined the UCLA AIDS Institute Mr. Bayrd has overseen the production of an award-winning documentary that provides an overview of the Institute's multifaceted, multidisciplinary approach to containing the HIV pandemic—through laboratory research and behavioral interventions, community-outreach programs and coordinated patient care. In addition, Mr. Bayrd has launched "Knowledge Is Power," a campaign to encourage more widespread and routine HIV testing, has created an AIDS Ambassadors program to promote peer education at UCLA and in the Los Angeles school system, and has organized symposia on a wide range of topics.
The South African Keiskamma AltarpieceFollowing its west coast debut at UCLA on World AIDS Day, the famed South African Keiskamma Altarpiece was displayed in the Los Angeles Community, and has returned to Kaufman Hall for display from January 10 - March 11, 2007.
The Keiskamma Altarpiece is a present-day folk-art masterpiece from South Africa, created by over one hundred rural women artists whose lives are deeply impacted by HIV/AIDS, poverty, and other significant hardships, as a message of hope for their community, country, and the larger world. The Altarpiece is a progressive adaptation of a classical religious work that replaces traditional religious iconography with images of black women and vulnerable children who are the "saints" in their community's struggle against AIDS.
This breathtaking, powerful art piece is socially relevant on many levels. It depicts the immense human cost of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and the dignity and power with which people and communities in South Africa are working to overcome this challenge, while also symbolizing the inclusive leadership that faith communities can provide in the fight against HIV/AIDS and in combating the stigma and isolation surrounding the disease.
Cost : 208 Glorya Kaufman Hall; parking is available in lot 4 for $8.

The TORQ imprint has started to fade out from sitting in my pocket, but the card storage and separated cash pockets are great. I would buy this wallet for any of my friends or family.

Grains (carbohydrates) are NOT the reason people are overweight. Yes, grains can be high in calories. Yet they are also nutrient rich: vitamins, minerals, energy-sustaining carbs, protein and– fiber for cleansing. They are a complete food. When you commit to eating whole grains daily, you feel full and satisfied. Salads and "diet" foods often leave you wanting more.
My grain of choice this week- MILLET. In fact, I just made millet mashed potatoes. Delicious!

Danica Patrick Needs A Sammich
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
Yes, I just quoted Fark in my title, but the fact remains, if she doesn't want to get some weight added to her Andretti Green Racing Honda, she might want to increase her caloric intake a little. Patrick — whose weight and height measures in at 5-2, 100 pounds — could very well be on the short end of the stick when it comes to the IRL's new minimum vehicle weight standards, which will now includes the weight of the driver in the overall measurement.
Essentially, the heavier cars will have their total weight reduced while the lighter cars could have up to 35 pounds added. Considering Patrick's relatively petite stature, her vehicle would, in all likelihood, be one of the first cars to see their weight increased. When asked about the reasoning behind this new rule, Patrick was skeptical:
Patrick said she asked IRL officials about the reason for the change but said "they didn't really have one.
If she really wanted to protest, Danica could always show up in one of these t-shirts:

Japan – 8 percent???
Delegates from 182 countries are in Bonn discussing key negotiating texts which can serve as the basis for critical climate talks in Copenhagen this December. Sam fleet from Friends of the Earth Europe and also a member of the Young Friends of the Earth Europe movement (Young FoEE) is there.
Wednesday was a manic rush to get the action materials ready for Young FoEE's action on Thursday, before I had to leave Bonn at 2pm. I had worked late into the night to prepare the templates for the school reports, and now had to fill it with content. I arrived at the FoEI meeting with draft action materials in hand in preparation.
The biggest news of the day seemed to be that Japan was set to announce their incredibly low targets to the Japanese press at 11am – a 15% reduction from 2005 levels, equivalent to 8% reductions from 1990 levels. Reacting to the targets, Yvo de Boer - Executive Secretary of the climate talks - would later comment that "for the first time in two and a half years in this job I just don't know what to say."
Rumours had been circulating around the Maritim, with plans discussed the previous night in the Youth camp, that the Japanese delegation would be boo-ed upon announcing the targets in the plenary session. Whether the Japanese delegation heard these rumours or not the 11am announcement never happened, and the Japanese delegation chose instead a closed session with the press later in the day.
Outside of Bonn, the results of the meeting in Luxembourg of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council, Ecofin, were brought to the table at the FoEI meeting – the opinion seemed to be that it was disastrous. Offsetting was included in financial contributions to developing countries, and the EU again failed to show leadership, potentially influencing the talks in Bonn.
Straight after the meeting I continued with the action materials. The idea to give a school report to delegates with a simple pass or fail mark awarded to each country. This would coincide with a banner outside and the area where the Flood banner was previously suspended to be converted into a blackboard, again with the results. With a much reduced Young FoEE team, from 35 to five, preparations began and text for the materials began to come in.
I had to leave before everything was finished and took the work with me, with the intention of working on the train. I sat down, booted my computer and promptly fell asleep, to wake in Brussels three hours later. I returned to the office and with the action team on the end of the phone, finished the materials, returning home finally at 10pm, but considering myself lucky: I knew the action team would be working hard long into the night, and would be up at the break of dawn.
Inside the Maritim bubble
Delegates from 182 countries are in Bonn discussing key negotiating texts which can serve as the basis for critical climate talks in Copenhagen this December. Sam fleet from Friends of the Earth Europe and also a member of the Young Friends of the Earth Europe movement (Young FoEE) is there.
The first signs of exhaustion set in on Tuesday morning: I jumped on the bus, which I maintain left from the same bus stop, with the same number, at the same time, and failed to notice for several stops that I was going in completely the wrong direction.
Needless to say I was late for the 8am FoEI meeting. I arrived half way through the updates from the previous day. We discussed collecting all the blogs from various FoEI members during the two weeks in Bonn.
Here are a couple of links to those that I have not previously mentioned:
Video blogs from Friends of the Earth US:
Linda's blog, Friends of the Earth Netherlands:
I popped outside to photograph the Anti-nuclear action, protesting against the possible inclusion of nuclear activities under the clean development mechanisms, before joining the remaining Young FoEE in discussion over a further action – an end of week school report, and continuation of the previous detention action's theme.
The evening was spent at the Secretariat's reception, where after again being fooled by public transport we found ourselves 30 minutes late. We missed the speeches, but thankfully not the free dinner and wine, of which I suspect the majority of the punctual attendees were deeply jealous.
I spent some time doing my best to mingle, but too tired to speak decided instead to stand and observe lobbying in its informal setting. I was slightly disgruntled that after 20 minutes nobody tried to lobby me, but figured my green t-shirt with a bicycle logo betrayed my NGO status.
It also struck me that I recognised the majority of people, and that we had all been sharing such a small space for what felt like weeks: the Maritim bubble (the conference venue). I realised that the talks offered a really fantastic opportunity for NGOs to influence the direction that countries would take to tackle climate change in the future, and ultimately a fantastic opportunity to influence the future full-stop – through lobbying and action.
I mentally congratulated the FoEI and Young FoEE team for their dedicated work over the last days. Ready for bed, I accompanied a genuinely lost and confused member of the Secretariat to the train station. At one point during the walk she remarked "oh, what is this lovely place?" to which I responded, "Bonn".

The Dressmaker
A Novel
Ellen Gowan is the only surviving child of a scholarly village minister and a charming girl disowned by her family when she married for love. Growing up in rural Norfolk, Ellen's childhood was poor but blessed with affection. Resilience, spirit, and one great talent will carry her far from such humble beginnings. In time, she will become the witty, celebrated, and very beautiful Madame Ellen, dressmaker to the nobility of England, the Great Six Hundred.
Yet Ellen has secrets. At fifteen she falls for Raoul de Valentin, the dangerous descendant of French aristocrats. Raoul marries Ellen for her brilliance as a designer but abandons his wife when she becomes pregnant. Determined that she and her daughter will survive, Ellen begins her long climb to success. Toiling first in a clothing sweat shop, she later opens her own salon in fashionable Berkeley Square though she tells the world – and her daughter - she's a widow. One single dress, a ballgown created for the enigmatic Countess of Hawksmoor, the leader of London society, transforms Ellen's fortunes, and as the years pass, business thrives. But then Raoul de Valentin returns and threatens to destroy all that Ellen has achieved.
In The Dressmaker, the romance of Jane Austen, the social commentary of Charles Dickens and the very contemporary voice of Posie Graeme-Evans combine to plunge the reader deep into the opulent, sinister world of teeming Victorian England. And if the beautiful Madame Ellen is not quite what she seems, the strength of her will sees her through to the truth, and love, at last.

Read an Excerpt
IT WAS the season of Advent and the night was blade sharp. Ground-glass white was the frost, and the eyes and noses of London were bright with cold.
It had become late. The market streets of that great metropolis, that city of cities, were emptying as lanterns and lights were staunched without and within the shops and houses. Drays and carts and private carriages rattled away, the harsh crash and grind of iron on stone, and as their noise departed, so too did the wash of human voices. London, heaving with trade and plenty and paucity, would settle soon into the freezing, star-strewn dark and sleep without... see more
Reading Group Guide
Ellen Gowan's childhood in the wilds of Norfolk is a happy one. Ellen's parents are deeply in love, and their quiet family life is rich with affection and respect yet poor in worldly goods. But a tragic accident on Ellen's thirteenth birthday changes the course of her childhood forever, and Ellen must find courage and strength of will beyond her years to face the hardships that follow. But undeniable artistic talent, wit, and an indomitable spirit carry her from Norfolk to London, and in time she is transformed into Madame Ellen: dressmaker to the nobility of England, the Great Six Hundred.
Beautiful Madame Ellen is burdened by the secrets she has been forced to keep along her journey, ones that could destroy the success and happiness she has fought so hard to create. She will need all that she has—will, strength, talent, and passion—to find and hold a place for herself in an unforgiving era in which women's involvement in the world of business is a rarity.

A blood pressure cuff is placed on one arm. An IV is inserted into a vein on your other arm. Small, round pads are placed on your chest. They will monitor your hearts electrical activity. Your blood pressure and heart rate are monitored before, during, and after you have exercised.
A small amount of radioactive material will be passed into the bloodstream through your IV. The radioactive tracers concentrate in the parts of the heart that have the best blood flow. A special camera will show the parts of the heart that are not getting enough blood. These images are taken while you are at rest and while you exercise.

NaturEra, (http://www.NaturEra.com) a dietary supplements emerging leader, this month announced the launch of its new Sugar Crush dietary supplements would take place at the American Association of Diabetes Educators meeting in San Antonio, Texas. Sugar Crush research has been accepted for Poster presentation at the AADE meeting. The full clinical research study (http://www.naturera.com/Manuscript.pdf) shows that NaturEra's 'Sugar Crush' and 'Sugar Crush Daily' dietary supplement formulas used in combination lower and maintain healthy blood sugar levels for people with diabetes.
The study (a coordinated effort between American and Israeli doctors and scientists) shows that the two Sugar Crush supplements produce dramatic results for people with Type 2 diabetes within the first 10 days of use and also have great benefits for people with Type 1 diabetes. The detailed results of the study were published as an abstract at the ADA's 70th Scientific Sessions and then released with an Abstract Poster at the AADE meeting that brings together diabetes educators with some of the world's leaders in diabetes research, reporting and activism.
For the nation's 25 million people with Type 2 diabetes, and an estimated 57 million pre-diabetics, achieving healthy blood sugar levels and maintaining them is a daily battle. NaturEra's Sugar Crush products have been designed to be a preventative measure for at-risk patients and these claims are supported by clinical research conducted in Israel and Russia. Both studies are now available in their entirety at http://www.NaturEra.com.
"The clinical studies confirm that when using both Sugar Crush & Sugar Crush Daily together, people with type 2 diabetes see dramatic results within 10 days in helping them maintain healthy blood sugar levels. There are also benefits for people with type 1 diabetes such as fewer spikes,*" said Dr. Mishel Weshler, the lead investigator of the Israeli study and a diabetic specialist at Weshler & Weshler Clinic in Nazareth Illit, Israel. "We are truly excited about the acceptance of our work to AADE and now have this information readily available in detail with the announcement at this prestigious conference."
"We know that there is a great need for these significant products that are 100% all natural and organic and completely effective, in the US market," said Oren Cohen, NaturEra's CEO. "While these products are new to the US they have been in use for several years in markets around the globe. We are proud to be able to release the complete findings at the AADE Conference knowing that only about a small percent of the hundreds of studies submitted to the organization are selected for consideration and Poster presentation."
Sugar Crush and Sugar Crush Daily were developed by researchers in Israel and are comprised of unique and proprietary blends of herbals/botanicals known for their medicinal value. By combining the art of blending these herbal ingredients with today's science and technology, NaturEra has created one-of-a-kind products that are clinically proven to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels*. The products are convenient to take as NaturEra recommends consuming 2.5ml of each with a 6 oz. glass of water at particular times of the day, primarily before meals and at bedtime. For best results, the two products should be used in conjunction with one another.
Sugar Crush and Sugar Crush Daily, because they are imported, are more carefully scrutinized than other dietary supplements produced domestically. All NaturEra products are produced to the highest standards and have received a "Free of Sale Certificate" from the Ministry of Health from the country of origin, further indicating they are safe for use. The "Free of Sale Certificate" indicates that a product has been in use without report of interactions with medicines or side effects. A complete listing of Sugar Crush's ingredients is listed on the web site at http://www.NaturEra.com. Being from Israel, the products are also certified as Kosher. Sugar Crush and Sugar Crush Daily come neatly packaged in bottles that are measured to last approximately one month with complete usage instructions included.

NaturEra products and information provided by NaturEra online or via email are designed to support, not replace, the relationship that exists between you and your physician or healthcare provider. Please contact your physician or healthcare provider for medical advice and/or specific treatment recommendations.

Sadly, it is no more. We had an incredible 2 years running the venture, and we are really proud of what we managed to achieve as a community of elders, learners and supporters.
However, we have decided to focus on delivering vocational education and, as a result, we are opening up the platform to teachers of all ages. Since The Amazings was closely linked with the idea of learning specifically from elders, we felt it wasn't appropriate to keep using the name (perhaps one day it could be resurrected?).
So now you find yourself on Mastered.
The new name reflects our change in emphasis towards masters and mastery. We aim to be a home for advanced creative skills, a catalyst for designer-makers to make a living from what they love, and a bridge between creative education and industry.
We're just getting going. Everything feels fresh and scary again. We are sad and excited in equal measures about this change. We hope we continue to keep your interest and support as we start this fresh chapter and we hope that we can help you meet your creative goals on the new platform too.
Finally, we'd like to say a huge, heartfelt thank you to everyone one who has supported us, as an attendee, as an online learner, as partners, as staff past and present, as interns, as superfans, as street teams, as advisors, and most of all as Amazings. It's been a privilege.

AUSTIN -- According to the Austin Chamber of Commerce, more than 150 people move to the Austin area every single day. That's a big reason the real estate market in the area remains red hot.
So how does Austin compare to other cities in the state and around the country?

I bought this in the summer to add some color to my pale legs. It didn't seem to add much color and I could not handle the strong scent it had.
This is a nice product from Caudalie it does help cover my vericose veins and even the tone of my legs. The dark cream makes it easy to see the application of it but does take some getting used to. Try to be careful not to use when standing on a rug and I would wait to let it dry before dressing. Which it does quickly.
This has a nice color, which i guess is most important, but I can't get over the smell - which is like old lady perfume. Not for me.
Loved the smell and feel, but it was hard to truly test the product due to the sample size. Could only use it when I was only exposing ankles - and that is hardly the point!
I was skeptical about how well this product would work but it actually gave me instant color (instead of taking days/weeks to work) Smelt a little but not too bad, better than most tanners. Would buy!
I have very pale skin and a lot of products tend to look orange on me. I felt the color on this was nice. I'm also sensitive to things and had no problems!
This product is worth all the hype. It's really easy to use, and actually does great a lovely hue on the legs. It's doesn't smear or rub off but it washes up great when you shower. I love it.
I used this before a night out and it has that typical fake tanner smell. The color was good but it did not last very long.
My skin is very light so this self tanner is way too dark for my liking. It has a very strong self tanner smell. It went on very streaky as well.
I bought this because I really liked the sample. The first night I tried wearing it out, when I was getting ready, water from the sink splashed on me and I ended up with dots all over my arm. I'm glad I paid for most of it using my points.

Defence seeks IT support for 2500 staff
- 28 November, 2012 11:12
The Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) has issued a tender for a help desk contractor to support around 2500 researchers spread over seven sites across Australia.
The DSTO, which is part of the Department of Defence, operates two help desks at Edinburgh in South Australia and Fishermans Bend in Port Melbourne. These are run as a one virtual help desks and field an average of 600 calls each week.
Science Corporate Information Services (SCIS) provides two separate networks (restricted and unrestricted) to DSTO staff who use more than 16,000 applications, 4000 desktops, 1100 laptops, 1500 thin clients and 560 printers.
The agency has asked for an outsourced contractor to provide an end-to-end help desk service, including staff coaching and continuous process improvement activities under a 12-month agreement.
The contractor would need to resolve 50 per cent of help desk calls the first time, which is below industry standards.
However, the agency said it runs a heterogeneous IT architecture in a research environment without an standard operating environment (SOE) and the technical diversity of and complexity of help desk support should not be under estimated.
"The overall DSTO computing environment is diverse and challenge and reflects the needs of one of Australia's largest research and development organisations," DSTO said in a statement.
"As the reliance on SCIS within DSTO has increased, the provision of effective IT support has become more important, particularly the quality of help desk support."

Atlanta >Food & Dining > City Grill
50 Hurt Plz SE, Atlanta, GA | Directions 3030333.753947 -84.386831
Neighborhoods: Downtown, Northeast, Northeast
One of the best restaurants I've been to – My husband and I celebrated our anniversary there recently. The atmosphere was elegant. The waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and very friendly. The food was amazing! We ordered the fried cuttlefish as our appetizer. It was soft and tender and the batter was not too thick. For the main, we ordered the filet mignon. It was one of the best steaks I've ever had. It came with mashed purple potatoes, which was absolutely delicious!
wonderful secret of downtown atlanta dining – 8/9/08
The name City Grille conjures up a pedestrian, diner like atmosphere. You can imagine the waitress sporting a pencil in the bun of her hair asking if you want ?mo' cawfee?. A diner it is not. City Grille is an elegant restaurant housed in a former Federal reserve Bank building. It is beautifully decorated with Italian marble, gorgeous chandeliers, and a grand staircase to the balcony, should you choose to dine there.
The lamb lollipops appetizer were superb, wonderfully seasoned and perfectly presented to my order of just slightly more cooked than medium.
I had the house salad vinaigrette that was just light and creamy enough to allow the flavor of the greens, tomatoes, and fried onions to come through. The hostess explained the differences between the 3 cheeses on the cheese plate. The tiny grapes and strawberries provided sweet bursts of flavor to contrast with the cheeses that my wife had.
My main course was the springer chicken, also delightfully seasoned, tender and moist thanks to its tomato broth base and vegetable accompaniment. All of the flavors complemented each other. Who knew that a simple chicken dish could be prepared so well? My wife had venison for the first time. As well prepared as this, served on a bed of orzo and colorful squash, it won't be the last.
Two desserts overwhelmed: the homemade cheesecake with raspberry glaze, and the decadent chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream. Forget the diet for once!
We must compliment John Paul our waiter. He was congenial, attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. He gave us a tour of the kitchen before dinner along with the history of the restaurant which was fascinating. His service was excellent.
City Grille is an elegant place to dine and worth the cost.
Special event – I recently hosted a rather large reception and dinner for our extended family and friends. I was originally going to to do this at home but decided to let the professionals do it instead. I was referred to Joey at City Grill by a colleague that I work with. I called Joey and explained what I was doing and he basically took it from there. He gave me a proposal for the menu and reassured me that all of the details would be taken care of and they were! I sent a deposit and just a few phone calls between us, no worries! My guests were totally Wowed by the elegance of the restaurant and the food and service were stellar. So, if you are planning to host a special event don't do it yourself, call Joey!
Awesome,Awesome,Awesome – Ok, no I couldn't afford to eat here everyday, although I really wish I could. Everything I have tried on the menu is magnificent!!!!!! I Bow down at the foot of you "Oh Mighty City Grill". The drinks are Good and strong and the wine selection is amazing!!!!!It seems very fancy however everyone in there is so cool and friendly This is a must try. The parking deck is free and valet is only 5 dollars. T
New favorite lunch spot – I went in for lunch the other day to break the burger addiction. At first, the room is a bit intimidating compared to Burger King, but the smell from the wood grill welcomes you and as you settle into your seat you can almost imagine another world of sophistication(I recomend requesting the balcony for power lunches). Sergio was my waiter. He recomended the Tuna Nicoise and to my suprise I was able to enjoy my lunch and still make it back to work within my break(about 35 min). I did not have anything from the bar, but the wine list was presented and a wine pairing was offered. I did not need parking(I walked), but was offered validation in the adjacent deck. The only con would be the lemonade was a bit too sweet for my meal.
City Grill – My husband took me to dinner there recently and we had a wonderful evening! We got engaged there a while back and the server remembered us! He selected wines for us paired with our appetizers and entrees and wow! was it good! We asked for some information about their private rooms and we were offered a tour and now are planning a dinner for my husband's company. This is a very special place!
Corporate Reception – My colleagues and I recently went to City Grill for a company dinner/reception in one of their private areas and all 60 of us were thoroughly impressed! The place was pretty crowded so I was somewhat hesitant about my very high expectations for this many people. Well, I did not need to worry a bit! Service was right on the money, drinks were refilled quickly and the appetizers were hot and tasty. Once we started the dinner the servers did not miss a beat. We had a 3 course dinner that was timed just right and the food was excellent. I usually dread dining with this many people but all of us are still talking about how much of a good time we had. I will definitely go back again!
One of the best around! – I just love City Grill! It has old world glamour not found in too many of the "hip" places around town. Luckily, I get to go there often with my company for private dinners and luncheons. The staff is always attentive and the food is always top notch. I am actually going to have my wedding reception there in the fall. My fiancee did not want to even look anywhere else! I enjoy the quiet elegance and the personal service. More Atlantans should head downtown and check it out!
Worst restaurant in Atlanta – Wedding anniversary (05/16/06) and it was the worst food,the worst service and the nastied restaurant we have ever experienced. Was seated at chair that had broken leg, and had to locate waiter for replacement. Waiter placed chair over her head and sit it down without checking and walked away; the leather was in'shreds'. 2nd waiter was never available, had to request everything starting with service, even though there were only 3 tables of customers. Waiter knew nothing about the food. I wished we had known this before we spent $200. Unfortunately, We would NOT recommend this restaurant to ANYONE. Attempted many days to reach owner/manager (same as Dailey's) and she would never speak with me..some customer service?
The Worst "Restaurant" in the US – Visited "city grill" last night (Saturday) and still can't get the taste out of my mouth. When you first walk in, impressive. The location is beautiful, no doubt but it all ends there. You should know if a restaurant is empty on a Saturday night at 8pm....there's a problem. I did love the bartender and our waiter but that does not make up for nauseating food. I'm not making this up, you could not eat the appetizer, entree...nothing. The short ribs were just a fat log that tasted like spoiled meat. My steak would never have been served at The Sizzler and my wife's lobster and shrimp were brown and looked like fake rubber food. We ate one bite of each serving and sent it back. The crab bisque soup...spoiled white fish pieces in heavy cream.
If you want to enjoy your evening....NEVER VISIT THIS RESTAURANT. BEWARE!!!!!!

Courses of Study
Departments and Programs
Majors and Minors
The Department of Art offers an integrated curriculum of art history and studio courses. Students engage formal analysis and critical thinking in creative practice and the acquisition of visual literacy. Both courses of study are based on the recognition that works of art of any period are related to the social, political, and cultural concerns of that period.
In art history courses students learn to translate visual experience into written and oral expression through the identification and contextual interpretation of art. Students are engaged not only in the classroom but also through firsthand interaction with objects in the Colby College Museum of Art. Students acquire familiarity with historical traditions, research and curatorial skills, and art historical literature.
In studio courses students learn to translate ideas and experience into visual expression through the physical exploration of diverse methods and media. Students gain comprehensive knowledge of the formal processes and vocabulary associated with the practice of creating art. Students develop the capacity for adaptive problem solving and aesthetic judgment in order to express themselves clearly in a visual language.
Requirements for the Major in Art
Any two of the following three courses: Art 111, 112, 173. Art 131 and one course in any three of the following four groups:
And three additional graded art courses (of three or more credits), which may be art history or studio courses in any proportion, making a total of nine courses.
The point scale for retention of the major applies to courses taken in the department. No requirement for the major may be taken satisfactory/unsatisfactory.
Students planning to continue the study of art or art history in graduate school should confer with their advisors to be sure that they have planned a substantial and adequate course of study. Art history graduate programs generally require reading proficiency in two foreign languages.
Attention is called to the interdisciplinary major in American studies.
Requirements for the Concentration in Studio Art
For students who are fulfilling the major in art, the studio concentration is offered to provide a broadly founded studio sequence that will assist in the development of skills and strengthen portfolios for any anticipated graduate studio work. The studio concentration must include at least a four-course sequence in painting, printmaking, sculpture, or photography among the requirements for the major. Additional requirements are Art 221 and 222 or equivalent (except in photography when 221 and 222 are replaced by 285 and another studio course of choice) for a total of 12 courses. Students are strongly encouraged to complete Art 131 during their first year. In addition, every effort should be made to complete the drawing requirement as early as possible, allowing advanced studio work to build upon that experience.
Requirements for the Concentration in Art History
For students who are fulfilling the major in art, the art history concentration is offered to prepare the student for graduate work in the field. In addition to the standard requirements for the major, art history concentrators must take each of the survey courses (Art 111, 112, 173) and two additional art history courses, making sure to have at least one in each of the four distribution areas listed under requirements for the major. Art history concentrators are required to take an art history seminar at the 300 level or above, for a total of 12 courses.
Requirements for the Minor in Art
An art minor is available and should be constructed according to the student's interests and on the advice of an Art Department faculty member. The art minor requires at least seven art courses, including Art 131 (or 161), two of the following: 111, 112, 173; and four additional courses at the 200 level or above.
Colby College reserves the right in its sole judgement to make changes of any nature in its program, calendar, academic schedule, fees, deposits, or any other matters in this catalogue.

Petr Cech
- Squad No: 1
- Position: Goalkeeper
- Age: 31
- Birth Date: May 20, 1982
- Birth Place: Plzen, Czech Republic
- Height: 6' 5'' (1.96m)
- Weight: 185 lbs (83.8 kg)
2013/14 English Premier League
One of the most respected goalkeepers in the world game, Cech may not be at the same level as in his early Chelsea career but he remains one of the best shot-stoppers around.
Cech began his career with FK Chmel Blsany, making his bow in 1999 before moving on two years later to Sparta for £465,000. His senior international debut came against Cyprus in February 2002, and he went on to be a crucial figure in the side that won European Under-21 Championship that year. He was named in the Euro 2004 All-Star team.
The goalkeeper moved to France in the summer of 2002, joining Stade Rennes for £3.3 million before officially moving to Chelsea at the start of July 2004, in a £7 million deal from Rennes.
The Blues set a then-record for clean sheets in 2004-05, keeping out the opposition for nine successive games. Cech did not concede a goal for 871 minutes, eclipsing Peter Schmeichel's record from his days with Manchester United, but his personal record is even longer than that, since he went 928 minutes unbeaten at Sparta Prague.
Cech's career was threatened in October 2006 when, in a sickening collision with Reading's Stephen Hunt, he suffered a fractured skull. This ruled him out of action for three months, during which time Chelsea's defensive record deteriorated. It is fair to say that since then Cech has struggled with the aerial ball - he continues to wear a protective head guard - but he battled back to claim the most clean sheets in 2010.
Still one of the best goalkeepers around, he played an important role in Chelsea's Champions League success in 2012 and remains one of the most important players in the squad.
Strengths: His height and reach make his shot-stopping one of the highlights of his game, regularly pulling off world-class saves.
Weaknesses: Is often suspect when coming out to claim crosses, perhaps a knock-on effect of the head injury that has affected his confidence when coming out to claim among bodies.
Career High: Helping Chelsea to a penalty shootout victory over Bayern Munich in the 2012 Champions League final.
Career Low: The life-threatening injury suffered in the clash with Stephen Hunt that eventually ruled him out for three months.
Style: Athletic and agile, commanding on his line if not in the box.
Quotes: "I believe Petr Cech is one of the most important players for this team, one of the best goalkeepers in the world." Carlo Ancelotti, January 2010
Trivia: Cech was born as one of triplets along with his sister, Sarka. The third child, a brother, died after suffering an infection in hospital. Cech has a weaker skull as a result of being a triplet.

The Principles of Uncertainty
Maira Kalman - Author
- Paperback: $22.00 add to cart
Maira Kalman paints her highly personal worldview in an inimitable combination of image and text.
The Principles of Uncertainty is an irresistible invitation to experience life through the psyche of Maira Kalman, one of this country's most beloved artists. The result is a book that is part personal narrative, part documentary, part travelogue, part chapbook, and all Kalman. Her brilliant, whimsical paintings, ideas, and images-which initially appear random-ultimately form an intricately interconnected worldview, an idiosyncratic inner monologue. Kalman contends with some existential questions-What is identity? What is happiness? Why do we fight wars? And then, of course, death, love, and candy (not necessarily in that order).
The tremendous success of Kalman's 2005 illustrated edition of Strunk and White's The Elements of Style established her as an original, inspirational voice, and the quirky, hilarious, heartbreaking style of The Principles of Uncertainty reveals Maira Kalman for what she truly is: a national treasure.

Continuing where the first film left off, Nell Sweetzer (Ashley Bell) is found terrified and alone in rural Louisiana.

Just as Nell begins the difficult process of starting a new life, the evil force that once possessed her is back with other, unimaginably horrific plans that mean her last exorcism was just the beginning.

yes, the pressure tank
I am replacing my tank.
I checked the connections from the supply line coming into the house to the tank itself.
Everything is 1 inch.
The connection on the tank I would like to get is 1.25 inch.
Will there be a problem adapting the 1 inch connection up to a 1.25 inch connection?
If you decrease the size of a connection the pressure increases, if you increase the size of a connection the pressure decreases.
Am I correct?
So how will that affect the tank or the overall pressure of the system?
If it will cause a problem I will need to choose a tank with a 1 inch connection.
Any comments on the subject would be appreciated
yes, the pressure tank
Nope, not going to re-pipe.
I just want to make sure that shifting from 1" to 1 1/4" won't cause some problem with the pressure in the tank.
Actually, it would not matter if it was 1" or 1/8", the pressure does not change.
It is common to have 1-1/4" pipe coming from the well. Reducing the size to 1" anywhere in the system will have no effect on an average single-family sized home.
Consider that most main supply piping in the home is 3/4". Water heater inlet/outlets are 3/4 inch.
Your problem, is not a problem.
my situation is the opposite
the pipe would go UP in size from 1 to 1 1/4
wouldn't that reduce the pressure going into the tank?
(this is all because the people who put it in were too cheap too spend an extra couple of bucks to use 1.25 pipe like you're supposed too - it's frustrating)
No, fluid pressure is NOT effected by the size of the pipe. If it's 50 psi coming in, it's 50 psi coming out. The pipe size variance you are talking about is common.
Do the work, there's no problem.
It's all done
Works Great!
Thanks a million for your help
