What you are perhaps unlikely to think of is sunshine. The sun is always shining in ITV's new sitcom, Days Like These, the British version of the hit American sitcom, That Seventies Show. That's partly because it's all filmed in a studio (weirdly, the most Seventies thing about this paean to all things Seventies). But it's also because this is a relentlessly cheery version of that decade. It's a Happy Days for the Nineties - a nostalgia theme park full of Spacehoppers, lava lamps and bell-bottoms.
The year is 1976 - admittedly the year of the great heat wave - but the light is not a British light - it's American. It is set in Luton, where the central characters are all coming of age and hang about in a garage that has been converted into a den. Does anybody in Luton, now or then, hang about in garage-dens? This isn't Luton; it's New Jersey or Marin County, California.
If this were really what the Seventies was like, Margaret Thatcher would never have become prime minister; Ronald McDonald would have. ITV's British adaptation of That Seventies Show (Finnish and French versions are apparently in the pipeline) is overseen by the US comedy producers Carsey Werner, who make the original in the States, but adapted for British audiences by two British writers, Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong. Former writers-in- residence at Planet 24 (they script the gags for The Big Breakfast), Bain and Armstrong are in their mid-twenties. They would have been just out of nappies in 1976 - and here, perhaps, lies part of the problem. Days Like These is a sitcom about Britain in the Seventies based on US scripts and adapted by two Brits who were barely sentient at the time.
"It wasn't a problem," insists the show's British producer, John Bartlett, a comedy veteran who produced Goodnight Sweetheart for the BBC. "There were enough people on the staff of the show with personal memories of the Seventies, so if anything seemed wrong, we'd correct it."
David Liddiment, director of programmes at ITV, is dismissive of the idea that the show should be a slavish re-creation of the ambience of Callaghan's Britain.
"It's a sitcom - it's not seeking to be a social document," he says. "We're seeking to have fun about our collective memories of the Seventies. It's slightly unreal, but I like that. Doesn't the sun always shine on the past?"
Liddiment calls the show "affirmative without being soppy" and argues that it doesn't ignore all the social realities of the times. The father of the central teenage character, Eric, is a car worker on short-term working (there's a brief scene in this Friday's opening episode where he expresses his feelings of guilt about having just purchased a Japanese car) - but the realism is immediately undercut by some peculiar casting. While Eric's mother (played by the Philadelphia Cream Cheese girl Ann Bryson) and father (Trevor Cooper) are skilled working class, their son (Max Wrottersley) speaks with a public-school accent. For the record, this corner of Bedfordshire suburbia also contains a Yorkshire teenager and a German exchange student. The show's weird sense of dislocation is similar to ITV's original - and highly successful - attempt to anglicise an American sitcom, The Upper Hand. The British version of the US sitcom Who's the Boss?, it starred Joe McGann as the ex-Tottenham Hotspur footballer who finds himself housekeeping for Diane Weston's glamorous businesswoman. The show's British "re-versionists" (as they say in the trade jargon) were American, and the supposed setting of Henley-on-Thames was pure Connecticut.
Audiences didn't seem to mind at all, however, and ITV's next attempt to import and localise a US sitcom (again with Columbia/Tri-Star) was Loved by You, an almost word-for-word transposition to London loftland of the hit New York-set show Mad about You. It starred John Gordon-Sinclair and Trevyn McDowell in the Paul Reiser/Helen Hunt roles, and was plausible but anaemic.
"It didn't get off the ground," admits Liddiment. "Mad about You was sassy and very Jewish. Loved by You was more laid back."
Liddiment denies that ITV's "re-versioning" of American comedies is part of some grand design - a "third way" between the BBC's devotion to home- grown, one-man-and-a-typewriter sitcoms, and Channel 4's and Sky's taste for the importing the real thing, lock, stock and chain-smoking writing teams.
"I'm not doing this because I think that the future of comedy is adapting US successes," says Liddiment. "If we are to find pre-watershed comedy success - and this goes for all the channels - we are going to have to start thinking differently, in longer runs than six or seven. The American system guarantees 22 episodes a year. Their producers do it better than anybody else.
The comedian Graham Lineham, one of the writers on Big Train and Father Ted, remains sceptical. "ITV has had something of a record for giving shows away, like Men Behaving Badly, or stopping shows half-way through runs," he says. "Few sitcoms ever arrive fully formed; they need time and space to develop.
"I think the standard of comedy is incredibly high at the moment - there's The Royle Family, I'm Alan Partridge and Goodness Gracious Me. It's a bit of a golden age. Bringing in American producers may work, but it is an act of desperation when no desperation is needed."
`Days Like These' is on Friday, at 8.30pm, on ITV
british sitcoms an important influence on us tv
TIME WAS when the Americans couldn't get enough of our sitcoms. Here are five British comedies that crossed the Atlantic.
Sanford and Son The US version of Steptoe and Son ran from 1972 to 1977 and made the two junk-dealers black, presumably because an oppressed minority would be more likely to be running such a down-market business.
Three's Company The Americanised version of Man about the House, from 1977. The landlord/landlady couple Mr and Mrs Roper spawned their own show, The Ropers.
All in the Family The first British sitcom to be transposed to an American setting was Till Death Us Do Part in 1971, with Archie Bunker the US equivalent of Alf Garnett. A watered-down version of the British original, it was the top-rated sitcom for five years.
Men Behaving Badly Less raunchy than its British namesake, the US version of the laddish sitcom was scheduled at 8pm on a Sunday. It was cancelled after 28 shows.
Cosby One Foot in the Grave's US version had Bill Cosby and his Cosby Show wife Phylicia Rashad in the Richard Wilson/Annette Crosbie roles.Reuse content

KREM 2's Taylor Viydo has the story (11/28/16)
One of the North Idaho College coaches hurt in a crash on Interstate 90 this September is happy to be back on the court.
It has taken a lot to get George Swanson, 46, back to work. Beneath the NIC warm ups, Swanson has metal plates and screws inside some of his bones.
"I broke both pelvises, femur, forearm, upper arm," he explained.
Back on Sept. 22, Swanson along with the rest of the NIC coaching staff, was headed to Portland for a recruiting trip when they hit a deer on I-90 near Cheney.
The group got out of the car as they waited for a tow truck to arrive.
After the truck showed up, an oncoming driver swerved off the highway and hit Swanson and two other coaches.
Swanson took the brunt of the hit though, and doctors put him in a medically induced coma as he recovered.
"First thing I remember is waking up in the hospital, probably six days later," recalled Swanson.
Doctors told him he would likely make a full recovery…but would probably need to sit out the Cardinals' season.
Once out of the hospital and onto therapy, Swanson made it clear that he had to be back on the court.
"I think I lasted two days at therapy before I was at practice every day after that," he laughed.
Docotrs said it could be six months before Swanson walked again, but he is already up and about.
"It's feeling good," Swanson explained. "I like being around the guys. I'm back, I'm 100 percent back here."
As for Swanson's players, they're backing "Coach G" all the way.
Swanson is back at practice and at games. He's recovering faster than expected. Grateful to be here. pic.twitter.com/SRDNxamNdi— Taylor Viydo (@KREMTaylor) November 28, 2016

"All email communication will be of value and personal to every customer." This is a strong statement, but not an unrealistic one.
Email should contain content and a message that piques the interest and engagement of your customer. When you communicate with your customers, remember that your communication is a representation of your business and your brand. What's more, the inbox is an important part of your customer's life, a very personal place that should be treated as such.
As well as providing value, you also need to be consistent across all communication. If your messages are not coordinated across all channels (email, Facebook, Twitter), then your customer may have an imbalanced experience with your brand.
Social media is quickly impacting every channel of communication. As such, integration of social media in email has never been more important. As consumers of email, we have learned to expect a more relevant degree of communication. For example, we now receive email to get daily discounts and alerts when tickets for our favorite band are on sale or when our preferred brands are running deals. We are not as likely to tolerate receiving 10 emails because now we expect that email should be more relevant.
Here are three suggestions on how to add value to your email communications:
- Get personal by versioning a component of regular email and make it relevant. The best two sources of data to use for versioning are declared data (preference center/welcome program) and behavioral data (browsed and click data).
A component of regular, calendared email marketing should be relevant. Preference center data is the most relevant at time of action or update. Integrate this data into welcome series emails when they have just selected their preferences. Another clear action that begs for follow-up is when customers update their profile. Deliver a tailored communication stream according to their updates to bring greater relevance to your communications with them.
Browsed and clicked data, although harder to implement, can give you the biggest response return. Try versioning a component of the message based on recent website browsed data and recent email clicked data. Both sources will add value to a component of regular communication.
- Offer value at the right time by messaging in the lifecycle. Messaging customers at the right time is another key way to add value to communications. No matter what your industry, there are messages that can be automated, particularly around a conversion. Examples include:
- Order confirmation with valuable information
- Replenishment programs
- In-stock notifications
- Flight updates and alerts
To get started, hone in on the top five valuable pieces of information your customer would want to receive as automated regular communication, then prioritize and schedule the order of sending the email to implement based on what will make the biggest impact.
- Listen to your customers. Email should be a two-way communication – a conversation. There is no doubt that social media's impact on email has transformed our behavior with it. Customers now expect to have an avenue to communicate with their favorite brands. Here are some ways you can offer your customers a voice:
- Provide the ability to share stories across social networks
- Invite them to comment about a recent purchase on Facebook or Twitter
- Send review solicitation emails
- Ask them to rate an email or send small email surveys
Another tactic is to monitor replies. This practice can give you enlightening feedback while providing a good customer experience.
Our use of email has changed, and, as marketers, we have to evolve our approach to ensure high levels of engagement. Add value to email communications to provide all customers a brand experience they deserve.

Free to a Good Home:
Creative Cambridge SoundWorks PCWorks 2.1 Speakers TORONTO ONLY
Will Ship To: Nowhere -- local only
Hi, I am moving soon, and have lots of stuff to sell and giveaway.
I am looking for someone who will appreciate these classic, refined computer speakers, and give them a good home. I don't want them to be abandoned, but be used for what its meant to be for. If you need a great sounding 2.1 speakers system, this is a steal. Toronto only though, sorry about that.
Will upload some pictures soon.
They are in fair (6/10) physical condition, but sonically performs just like new. Kind of dirty, but no cracks, dents, heavy/deep scratch marks or any of the sort.
Included are the original two satellite speakers, the subwoofer, and the power supply. I lost the cable with volume control however, so I am replacing that with a high quality 2m~ 3.5m to 3.5m cable. They are the Japanese/Hong Kong version, and comes with the original packaging!
I would prefer TORONTO meet up only, as I don't have a car at the moment. Time and date at your convenience.
First come first serve!
Thanks for reading.

Oz Lithops
Welcome to Oz Lithops
PLEASE NOTE: Our last shipping date in MAY will be the the 8th of May and orders placed after 6pm Saturday, May 6th will not ship until May 29th. During the period May 8th to May 27th, we will not be available to answer email or begin processing orders as we will be on a field trip to Namibia, thank you.
If, like me, you are interested in Lithops and you are in Australia, you will probably have discovered by now just how difficult it is to obtain these wonderous plants or their seeds. Interest in Lithops is reasonably high in Australia, considering their obscurity, however most people are put off trying to grow them simply because of the difficulty or costs involved in obtaining plants or seeds.
What's Changed?
Very little has changed, Lithops are still difficult to obtain, however, they are becoming more prevalent by way of on-line auction sites (like e-Bay™ and Quicksales™ [Oztion™]) and some are available at good prices. Plants supplied from overseas must meet strict quarantine regulations to protect Australia's biodiversity, and rightly so, and unless you are importing vast numbers, the costs involved are beyond most individuals.
Hopefully, on this site you will find enough information to show you that Lithops are neither too difficult to grow or too expensive to try.
Check out our catalogue pages to see Lithops seeds and plants available to buy.
Don't forget to see our 'Specials!' listing, you might be surprised!
If you are looking for any information, please have a look at the "Information" panel on the left hand side before emailing us with questions, thank you.
Our plants are available to Australian customers only. Please ensure you are aware of any quarantine restrictions applicable to your State or Country as we cannot provide any certification. Thank You.
We accept payment via PayPal for ALL orders.

Monsters Vs. Aliens
In "Monsters Vs. Aliens", An Attack Of The 49-Foot, 11-Inch Woman In San
Omar P.L. Moore/PopcornReel.com
SHAREFriday, March 27, 2009
From left: The Missing Link (voiced by Will
Arnett), Ginormica/Susan (Reese Witherspoon), Insectosauraus, B.O.B. the blue
blob (Seth Rogen), and Dr. Cockroach Ph.D. (Hugh Laurie),
walking the streets of San Francisco in "Monsters Vs. Aliens", the animated
adventure in Real 3D and IMAX 3D which opened in North America today. The
film is directed by Rob
Letterman and Conrad Vernon. (Image courtesy of Dreamworks Animation)
Not only is "Monsters Vs Aliens" fun with a capital F, it's the first animated
film of the year that's fun for the entire family. There's a third F:
fantastic, accurately describing Rob Letterman and Conrad Vernon's animated
adventure, beautiful in Real D 3D, even though the Dreamworks film is just as
good in 2D.
Modesto, California is the American city targeted by a huge meteor, and there's
one victim: Susan Murphy (voiced by Reese Witherspoon), and on her wedding day,
no less. About to be married to narcissistic, selfish weatherman Derek
Dietl (voiced by Paul Rudd), Susan is splattered by the meteor. Within
moments she has grown several stories high, almost 50 feet (perfect for IMAX 3D,
a version in which the film also appears) and is soon kidnapped by the U.S.
government. U.S. Military General W.R. Monger (voiced by Kiefer
Sutherland) has her renamed Ginormica and enlists her and a motley crew of
monsters (B.O.B., Missing Link, Insectosaurus and Dr. Cockroach Ph.D.) to fight
against an even larger alien robot, controlled by Gallaxhar (voiced superbly by
Rainn Wilson), a multi-eyed alien being looking to recover the quantonium that
Susan/Ginormica has inside her.
Before too long, all-out pandemonium breaks out on the streets of San Francisco.
There's even a chase scene there that Steve McQueen would have been proud of.
"Monsters Vs. Aliens" is cheeky in its cinematic endeavors, slyly taging a scene
on a famed American landmark with all the vigor and zeal that Alfred Hitchcock
did in films like "North By Northwest" (Mount Rushmore) and "Saboteur" (Statue
Of Liberty). No comparison in tone of course, between the British
filmmaker who adored San Francisco, and Mr. Letterman and Mr. Vernon, but you
know that the two directors of this nifty film love movies and have a great
sense of humor, which "Monsters Vs. Aliens" is full of.
"Monsters Vs. Aliens", which references many films including "Dr. Strangelove",
"Godzilla", the Star Wars series, "Attack Of The 50-Foot Woman", is part satire,
part sci-fi and all comedy, filled with great voice work from Seth Rogen as B.O.B., a
gelatinous blob without a brain who's all heart, Hugh Laurie as Dr. Cockroach,
and Stephen Colbert, hilarious as U.S. President Hathaway, who looks a little
like could-be U.S. Senator Al Franken. (Political foreshadowing, perhaps?)
But for all the great voice performances here, it is Mr. Wilson who steals this
film as Gallaxhar. He's having a devil of a time, and so are we.
With the voices of: Will Arnett, Jeffrey Tambor, Julie White, Amy Poehler, John
Krasinski, Renee Zellweger and many more. "Monsters Vs. Aliens" is written
by the team of Maya Forbes and Wallace Wolodarsky, the co-director Rob
Letterman, and the team of Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger, and based on a story
by Mr. Letterman and Conrad Vernon.
"Monsters Vs. Aliens" is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association Of America
for sci-fi action, some crude humor and mild language. The film's duration
is one hour and 34 minutes.

Photographer Jeanine Michna-Bales (Through Darkness to Light) and author Colin Rafferty (Hallow This Ground) discuss their work and the role of monuments and memory in creating a sense of shared history.

"[Michna-Bales] creates an archive of historical sites both famous and obscure, discovered through academic inquiry at historical societies and oral histories passed down through generations. Beneath her lens, the land and its remaining structures are forever haunted by the ghosts of the past, reminding us of both our potential for good and evil."―Feature Shoot
"In this riveting debut collection of lyric essays… the author delves deep into the heart of past atrocities while probing the motivations of the living to memorialize, and he comes to some provocative conclusions… Though fixed on what remains of some of history's darkest moments, Rafferty's essays, both gripping and wonderfully reflective, illuminate."―Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Bryan Robson has joined the growing chorus questioning Manchester United's decision to sell Danny Welbeck.
The striker came through the ranks at Manchester United having joined the club as a school boy but was allowed to leave Old Trafford for Arsenal on transfer deadline day in a move that coincided with the arrival of Radamel Falcao on loan from Monaco.
The deal was quickly questioned, with former assistant Mike Phelan saying the club had lost part of their identity by letting Welbeck leave and Paul Scholes admitting he was sad to see the striker depart in his column for The Independent.
Amid a sense United could live to regret letting him go, the striker scored a brace for England in their Euro 2016 qualifying victory over Switzerland last night.
Former Red Devils captain Bryan Robson has now admitted he was surprised that Louis van Gaal sanctioned the £16m sale and said he would not have let Welbeck depart.
"I was watching the last week of the transfer window and I thought 'Yes, I like the look of that and I really like that'," said Robson at the Soccerex Global Convention.
"And then, at the last minute, Danny went to Arsenal and I thought that is the one move I would not have done."
He continued: "But United have added some really quality players to the squad, which is good. But I would like to have still seen Danny as a United player.
"You know what Danny is like in a football pitch. He'll give everything and I think it's a great signing by Arsenal."

The Blues are the hot tip to take the one automatic promotion place from the Second Division, but we've seen it all before, with knobs on, and we're not biting. Still, things are a lot better than they were two years ago.
With the club in receivership after the owners, the Kumars, had lost their rag trade fortune during the BCCI collapse, those were dark days indeed. Grown men were seen crying in the streets of Small Heath, but, then again, that happened every other Saturday.
But lo, what should appear from our glorious capital but a saviour, a man with a vision. And what a vision: a vision of success; promotion; and busty maidens. Ladies and gentlemen I give you Mr David Sullivan.
The papers may be full of the ever talkative Barry Fry but it is David Sullivan who the fans credit with the so-called rebirth of the Blues. It is common knowledge that the best coaching and team spirit can only get you so far in the money-orientated football world of the Nineties. If you're going to go the distance and get success then you need the readies - and big time.
David Sullivan's popularity among the fans, however, can not be explained simply by the size of his wad (ooh, 'er missus). What impresses those who have had their cynicism hardened through years of unfulfilled promises is that the man seems to mean what he says. He actually believes that he can get the Blues to the Premiership, the madman. We've now got a stadium transformed from the cesspit it had become over years of neglect into an impressive all-seater facility. You can almost see the away support (normally a minibus full) turning a fetching shade of green as they shuffle, cloth caps in hand, to their appointed seats pausing only to let their sheep/whippets relieve themselves.
You would hardly describe Barry Fry as Mr Unpopular either. OK, some of his signings have been bizarre. Ricky Otto has come in for some stick, mostly unwarranted, mainly because he - along with a contingent of ex- Barnet players - is another "Fry Old Boy". At least we aren't selling players any more. In fact we can't get rid of some of them. "Big" signings get big wages, and moving to clubs at our level, or below, is not an attractive proposition to a seasoned professional. Andy Saville is a notable exception, Barry.
If there is one thing that Blues fans appreciate it is honesty and Fry, if nothing else, is painfully honest. If the team play badly he tells them, and anyone else willing to listen! Not for this man the pitiful excuse of bad refereeing standards that so many Premiership managers seem to trot out every time they experience a minor setback. No, if we deserved to lose Fry says so.
The club seems to be better organised these days, too, though that would not be too difficult. Regular newsletters appear, unsolicited. However, these missives tend to be little more than demands that we consign all our worldly goods to the Blues.
There is also a fast developing football in the community scheme and reduced-price admission - "Kids for a Quid" - for less attractive fixtures, though it is tough finding an attractive fixture in this Division. Attendances have soared to the 20,000 mark for most games which shames a few clubs in the Premiership let alone the First Division.
And yet, the Blues will always be the Blues. David Sullivan may think he can buy the club back to the top level but he is reckoning without the "Gipsy's Curse" that has hung over the club since we turfed out a Romany encampment to build St Andrews, and the unerring ability of the team to shoot themselves in the foot at vital moments.
Those who have followed the club for some time may have suspended disbelief for a while but we all know that the light fast appearing at the end of the tunnel can be nothing else but the light of yet another oncoming train.Reuse content

In 1990 Fr Dakos was one of the first to conduct a public religious service in Albania, about 23 years after the authorities tried to eradicate religion. Fondling the iron key to the church, looted by the Communists and turned into a farm store, he complains that Albania still uses the old Communist techniques of repression against the Greek minority.
'I am told to give services in Albanian and Tirana won't let us nominate our own church leaders or teach the Greek language and history in our schools . . . Our people are dragged away in the dark of night by the police and the secret police watch and report everything we do or say.'
As tensions mount between Tirana and Athens, and the prospect of a Bosnian-style ethnic war draws nearer, fear stalks Albania's Greek community.
A few Greek intellectuals flourished under Hoxha. Most of the community, numbering up to 300,000, suffered. The Greeks were considered disloyal because Albania was in a technical state of war with Greece until 1987. There were restrictions on Greek education and on the Orthodox religion.
Since the overthrow of the Communists many Greeks have called for enosis, or unity, with their 'mother country'. Albania has made clear to Athens that border revisions would be tantamount to war and has begun a harsh crackdown on the Greek community.
In April two people from Dervicani and four others were taken by the police and charged with having contacts with Greek intelligence, possessing hunting weapons without permits, and carrying out 'anti-constitutional' activities. They have not had access to lawyers or visits from their families, despite protests from Amnesty International.
Fr Dakos has hidden the church's blue and white banner, a symbol of the Greek community. 'We were afraid so we took it away,' he said.
Tirana is also causing problems over Greek language education and will allow only art, music and physical education to be taught in Greek. 'We speak Greek here and we want our children to be educated in the Greek language and in their own history, but we are not allowed,' Fr Drako said.
The once-dreaded secret police are back in action and ethnic Greeks have been dismissed from senior posts in the army. The police have raided villages late at night, arresting prominent Greek- Albanians without warrants. The sense of fear in the community is mirrored in the dramatic escalation of tension between Athens and Albania after a recent shooting incident in which two Albanian border guards were killed.
The Greek minority has been in Albania since antiquity, although that is challenged by the Muslim majority, who say they were brought to Albania as labourers under the Ottomans. They live around the city of Gjirokaster, where Enver Hoxha was born, and in a chain of villages along the border with Greece.
The area is in deep recession. Fields are untilled and unemployment runs at more than 60 per cent in the towns. The best hope for young Albanians is emigration to Greece, where they work illegally in construction. As Greek families leave, poorer Muslim Albanian families are queuing up to take their homes and land. It is not called 'ethnic cleansing', but there is potential for conflict if the authorities allow Muslims to settle in Greek areas.
In early April, armed assailants, reported to be wearing Greek military uniforms, attacked a conscript training base, killing the soldiers. It prompted a new crackdown on ethnic Greeks.
Michailis Nika, the mayor of a border village, says that when the attack took place he helped bring the wounded to hospital in Gjirokaster. 'They were conscript soldiers,' he said. 'Many were from the Greek community, so it does not make sense that we would attack them and anyway we have no interest in stirring up such troubles with Tirana.'

"It was a really sweet tiny vest, but do wish in came in different sizes - it will fit a newborn (that's about it). The quality of the vest itself was great, but the personalised I heart writing was actually a little wonky! It wasn't extremely noticeable so it was fine, but it's just a shame. Good value for money."

"Brilliant little present and very high quality.I bought this as a joke present for my two best friends who are having a baby. We are currently in the middle of a friendly game to find the "best" presents for their baby, so I thought a personalised vest would be great.It arrived extremely quickly, especially considering personalisation is supposed to take longer.The product was great quality and the printing looks much more decent than some places I have ordered things from in the past.In terms of size, it seems like an accurate "average" size for the age I chose."

Airport Finance:
Observations on Planned Airport Development Costs and Funding Levels and the Administration's Proposed Changes in the Airport Improvement Program
GAO-07-885: Published: Jun 29, 2007. Publicly Released: Jul 30, 2007.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
To address the strain on the aviation system, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has proposed transitioning to the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). To fund this system and to make its costs to users more equitable, the Administration has proposed fundamental changes in the way that FAA is funded. As part of the reauthorization, the Administration proposes major changes in the way that grants through the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) are funded and allocated to the 3,400 airports in the national airport system. In response, GAO was asked for an update on current funding levels for airport development and the sufficiency of those levels to meet planned development costs. This report comprises capital development estimates made by FAA and Airports Council International (ACI), a leading industry association; analyzes how much airports have received for capital development and if sustained, whether it can meet future planned development; and summarizes the effects of proposed changes in funding for airport development. Airport funding and planned development data are drawn from the best available sources and have been assessed for their reliability. The Department of Transportation agreed with the findings of this report. This report does not contain recommendations.
Planned airport development costs total at least $14 billion annually over the next 5 years as expressed in 2006 dollars. This estimate is a combination of FAA's estimate of $8.2 billion in AIP grant-eligible projects and $5.8 billion from ACI's estimate of projects not eligible for AIP. FAA's estimate is based on airport master plans that FAA planners have reviewed and entered into a database of all national system airports. ACI also estimates airports' planned development, based on a survey of the 100 largest airports and includes all projects regardless of grant eligibility. From 2001 through 2005, airports received an average of about $13 billion a year for planned capital development. This amount covers all types of projects, including those not eligible for federal grants. The primary source of this funding was bonds, which averaged almost $6.5 billion per year, followed by federal grants and passenger facility charges (PFC), which accounted for $3.6 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively. If airports continue to attract this level of funding for planned capital development, this amount would annually fall at least $1 billion short of the $14 billion in total planned development costs (the sum of FAA's estimated $8.2 billion in eligible costs and the industry's $5.8 billion in ineligible costs). Larger airports foresee a decline of at least $600 million annually, while smaller airports foresee a decline of at least $400 million annually. FAA's reauthorization proposal would reduce the size of AIP by $750 million but increase the amount that airports can collect from PFCs. However, the benefit from increased PFCs would accrue mostly to larger airports and would not offset a reduced AIP grants program for smaller airports. The proposal would also change the way that AIP and other FAA programs are funded. The new fuel taxes that FAA has proposed may not provide the revenues for AIP that FAA anticipates.

Defensive MVP: Ken McLaurin
McLaurin had a great senior year and look for that to continue once he steps on the Hilltop this coming fall. At 6-2, 285-pounds, McLaurin is so powerful and has enough athleticism that will allow him to make an impact early on for SMU. Whether it is rushing the passer, or stopping the run, SMU fans are going to hear his name a lot come September.
Runner Up: Mikial Onu
In terms of impact early on, Onu is going to be able to step right into a secondary that struggled all year long and make some plays. As with all freshman, he's going to give up some plays, but he's also going to force a ton of turnovers which is something this SMU defense has needed for a couple of years. It's not going to be easy for Onu having to play Baylor and TCU early on, but once conference play rolls around he will be a difference maker.
Sleeper: Myles Duke
Watch out for Myles Duke over at the STAR position. Duke played quarterback much of his time in high school, but started seeing some time on defense during his senior season to prepare for his time at SMU. In terms of reading plays, especially the quarterback, Duke's time as a quarterback in high school is going to pay big dividends down the road.
Project Player: Blake Carlisle
The talent is certainly there for Blake Carlisle, however it might take a little bit of time for him to be physically ready to go at SMU. Right now, Carlisle is 6-3, 185-pounds but will need to up his frame significantly when he is going up against stronger college offensive lineman. However, Carlisle's speed can certainly help him on special teams, he is likely a player that will really come on later on in his years at SMU.

|Reviews for Juliet Never Wore Converses
| Laylaenchantix101 chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
Welcome back, and happy almost New Years!
(If there are any mistakes on this review, blame my NOOK)
You know, I'm glad you got nominated for the award :) Besides, JNWC is no offically a year old, so happy birthday to your story!
Well...yeah, that's it.
| Curlscat chapter 13 . 12/31/2012
Are you sure there's a narrator? I didn't think there was a narrator in Romeo and Juliet...
Adrienne was the one that was a natural, right?
| Curlscat chapter 12 . 12/31/2012
Sabrina, wake up! You don't have to get up because it's snowing! ...Oh, thank you...
That's pretty much what just happened.
I'm surprised. I thought this chapter was going to pick up where the last one left off, and it's not.
I would totally have hidden inside and let everyone think I was just a really awesome hider.
| Curlscat chapter 11 . 12/31/2012
...I thought she'd already picked the stage crew...
I'm enjoying this. Thought you might like to know.
| Reflections of Twilight chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
My Answer: You are cruel for making those poor woodchuck chuck wood! I am in an organization that protects woodchucks and teaches them how to use pre-chucked driftwood.
Yeah... That works, I guess.
Poor sick Sabrina...
I'll vote for you. ;)
Happy New Year!
Luffles, Sunsets
| muzicoftheheart chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
This chapter was so adorable! I loved it! I hope Sabrina feels better!
QOTD: Well, if a woodchuck could chuck wood to a very quantable amount, we wouldn't need to know how much, it'd be to large to count! :)
| Archer Princess chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
Well helloooooo! Long time, no see!
Uh oh, Sabrina is SICK! I know the feeling... you are closing in on showtime, and you lose your voice. Not fun.
Yeah... so school for sick people! Of course, all my knowledge of this comes from reading. I'm homeschooled, and unless I am too tired to even read, I must continue through the PLAGUE!
Haha! Veronica is freakin' amazing, but I agree with Puck: That woman is SCARY!
...and reminds me of my own mother. Huh. That is what my mom would say to me, in an around the whole creepy mother talking about how dating works...
See, that is something I generally disagree with when I read fics where Sabrina is an adult. I always wonder why she would go to college etc to become a LEGAL attorney when all she has to do is work in FPL and then fake her way into NYC! ...although I guess that she might want to do it the "normal" way.
Hoooooo boy... Here comes Henry!
Say WHAAAAAAAAAAA? I was not exactly expecting Henry to say that. Although I know that he does have to eventually say that...
CONFUSED: So... before Henry came in, she was hungry. Then he comes in, tells her he is okay with her dating Puck. Then she turns down the soup. Just letting you know...
Aww... Father/Daughter time... I love spending time with my dad!
Congrats on your nomination!
QotD: I'm not feeling that creative right now (it is 1:30am), sooooooo...
Also, a woodchuck can chuck a lot of wood, as a woodchuck can chuck wood. So your question is invalid.
-Archer Princess-
| julygem chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
GAH I love this story too much, it's just...inconceivably good.
| The Grey Waren chapter 27 . 12/31/2012
Response to Qotd: 3 1/2
| Key-2-Soul chapter 26 . 12/30/2012
:O :O:O A-are you serious?! The story is great. but you ended RIGHT there... YOU ARE MAKING ME GO CRAZY!xD The whole situation and the play coming up and you pick now to stop :P Just because you like suspense apparently... Doesn't mean we do! I'm goin to die soon if you don't update...
update soon...
You wouldn't want me to die would you?
I'm goin to die... And it's goin to be your fault. Hope you like prison... Murderer... * Now is dead*
* comes back from the dead*
I will haunt you for the rest of eternity...
I don't think you would like that...
You should really update...
Eternity is a really long time...
Please update soon! I love the story and I love where it is going... :D
| Curlscat chapter 10 . 12/30/2012
Yes. Yes I did enjoy this more. Much more. :)
| Curlscat chapter 9 . 12/30/2012
I do hope that Scarlett doesn't turn into a Mary Sue. :)
Puck just makes me want to smack him sometimes, you know?
| Curlscat chapter 8 . 12/30/2012
Why is :S a sour face? How is it sour?
Puck might have convinced Scarlett that he was over Sabrina if he'd told her they'd tried dating and failed. (Also... Scarlett makes out with people she's not dating or interested in dating? Awkward...)
Puck, you just failed at that turn-over-a-new-leaf thing.
| Curlscat chapter 7 . 12/30/2012
Silly Sabrina. He had to change to become what he is now.
GAH! You did this is City of Lights, too! You hinted and hinted until I was nuts before you explained it all! BLARGH.
| Curlscat chapter 6 . 12/30/2012
You know dialogue goes with the person who's speaking's actions, right? Not at the beginning of every paragraph? Because you do this: " "Normal people don't get flown home by their Everafter…" Puck smirked.
"Everafter what? What exactly am I to you, Grimm?" Sabrina closed her mouth, pondering this for a moment.
"Normal people don't get flown home by their Everafter enemy." Puck sighed.
"Of course. Now, just let me fly you home," he practically begged. "I have a huge math test tomorrow and I need you to help me with studying." Sabrina groaned.
"I totally forgot that I have to help you study tonight!" Sabrina confessed. "But I can't, I have a science quiz tomorrow…" "
When it ought to be this: " "Normal people don't get flown home by their Everafter…"
Puck smirked. "Everafter what? What exactly am I to you, Grimm?"
Sabrina closed her mouth, pondering this for a moment. "Normal people don't get flown home by their Everafter enemy."
Puck sighed."Of course. Now, just let me fly you home," he practically begged. "I have a huge math test tomorrow and I need you to help me with studying."
Sabrina groaned. "I totally forgot that I have to help you study tonight!" Sabrina confessed. "But I can't, I have a science quiz tomorrow…" "
See the difference? This way, Sabrina's actions are with Sabrina's words, and Puck's are with his. It's much less confusing. You don't have to open a new paragraph with dialogue all the time, you can open it with actions.

Arsenal Ladies and former England forward Kelly Smith has hit out at the Football Association for only having one woman board member and said more were needed to reflect the increase in young female footballers.
Smith, 37, one of the world's leading female players, said it was not enough that Heather Rabbatts, who became the first woman on the FA board in 2012, was still the only one among 11 members.
Smith, who scored 46 goals for England in 117 appearances, said a change at the top would give a new generation the "inspiration" of knowing that women could land top jobs through hard work.
"I don't think it's enough that there's only one lady on the FA board, there needs to be more," she said.
"I would like to see more women in all areas of the game. I think it would help the game tremendously, just with the experience women have. You shouldn't have to be male and of an older generation to get a top job. If young girls can also see there's people in high places, it will give them inspiration to work hard and know that it is reachable.
"Karren Brady is a good example of a very good businesswoman who has done well at West Ham and I think we need more leaders like that." She spoke as figures were released showing girls' participation in the flagship nationwide FA Skills programme had soared 63 per cent in the past year.
It means girls make up 25 per cent of all participants in the five- to 11-year-olds programme, compared with nine per cent a year ago. More than 1,230 girls now take part in the weekly after-school sessions, up from fewer than 800. The rise comes after the FA launched its official grassroots partnership with supermarket Lidl, enabling it to roll out girls-only training sessions.
But Smith, who is working towards her coaching badges for when she retires, added that the women's game had suffered for not having a team at the Rio Olympics.
Smith, from Watford, who won the FA Women's Players' Player of the Year in 2006 and 2007, blamed "scaremongering" chiefs for playing "politics".
The Lionesses did not compete in Rio after the English FA was unable to reach agreement with the Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish FAs, which thought putting players forward for an Olympics Team GB would threaten their status as nations within Fifa.
Smith said: "It's frustrating. It was another opportunity to sell the women's game with millions watching."
She said it was crucial to try to field teams in Tokyo 2020 as research by Lidl showed parents were still five times more likely to encourage sons to play football than daughters. Opinion Matters interviewed 1,004 parents of five- to 16-year-olds for the supermarket.
An FA spokesman said: "We're keen on helping more women reach boardroom positions right across the game. We have just launched a women's leadership programme with 10 women from across clubs, county FA's and federations."
