The Coldwell Banker Home Show is enjoying its 10th year of success this weekend.
What started out as an idea in the late 1990's and culminated into the first show at Number One Shed in 2002 has grown into one of the most popular community events on the island.
Over the years we have seen many changes to the Coldwell Banker Home Show, but one thing has stayed the same — our commitment to providing access to quality businesses and creating an event that is both entertaining and informative.
Certainly, the Home Show has taken on a life of its own and it has not been without its challenges.
When Number One Shed was scheduled for demolition a few years ago, the concern was where to have the show that was convenient to town.
While we had talked about looking for another venue for some time, it forced us to look at our options, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
Since 2009 the community event has been based at CedarBridge Academy where the space is clean, well-lit, with lots of parking, room for expansion, and a kind, supportive staff headed by our friend Stuart Crockwell.
Mr Crockwell, chief operations officer at the school, said: "CedarBridge Academy are excited to be participating in this successful venture.
"We congratulate Coldwell Banker Bermuda Realty on their 10th anniversary with the Home Show and look forward to continuing our role in the future."
This year will be the largest show ever, covering more square footage and showcasing Bermuda's best, with more than 65 exhibitors including 17 new ones.
These include Brown & Co, Protect-A-Child Pool Fence, Rowe Spurling Paint Company, Catcon Group, The Concrete Factory, Furniture Flair, Keep Bermuda Beautiful, Satronic Enterprise/Brilliant Solutions, Digicel Bermuda, Up with People and several Age Concern Link Partners.
In the past 10 years business participation has doubled, but not since 2010 when the Home Show first expanded into the cafeteria and gymnasium at CedarBridge, has the event seen so much support.
In 2012, back by popular demand, the Coldwell Banker Home Show will be open on Friday, February 17, from 3-8pm, with our normal hours on Saturday, February 18, from 9:30am-4:30pm.
For those that don't know where CedarBridge Academy is located, it is adjacent to Bermuda National Stadium on Frog Lane, Devonshire.
If planning to attend the show, bring your walking shoes as the venue is rather large, with exhibitors from the main entrance of the school in various lower level classrooms to the back cafeteria and everywhere in between, including upstairs in the main hallway and in the gymnasium.
And plan on spending a few hours to really see everything there is to offer. There is nowhere else in Bermuda where so many businesses come together in one place to provide the public with valuable information, free advice, great 'Home Show'-only specials and free giveaways.
There is always an abundance of food choices for sale in the cafeteria, proudly served by the CedarBridge staff including selections for both the health conscious (salad and soup) and those looking for a little comfort food (hamburgers, hot dogs, fries and more), all at affordable prices.
New this year is the 'Lifestyle 50+ Village' sponsored by Age Concern. This will host a number of seminars and demonstrations throughout the day including Zumba, salsa and line dancing, plus some culinary delights courtesy of The MarketPlace and Bermuda Gas.
Information on the show including a list of all exhibitors and floors plans is available at www.coldwellbankerhomeshow.com.
As always the event is free to all.
Susan Thompson is the Home Show event organizer and is the agency manager at Coldwell Banker Bermuda Realty. For more information on Coldwell Banker, contact 247-1802 or log onto www.bermudarealty.com.

In 2012, New State Laws On Large And Local Issues
By editor
New state laws reflect controversial national issues such as immigration. They also regulate local concerns from requiring teaching about important gay figures in California schools to limiting when New Yorkers can fertilize their lawns. NPR's Corey Dade and Pam Fessler discuss 2012's new laws.

Updated at 8:00 p.m. with information about school closures and the gas explosion in Kansas City.
So there's a huge storm coming into Missouri tonight/tomorrow morning and the Weather Channel says you can blame California (sort of).
Missouri legislators are cutting their work week short because of concerns about a winter storm.
The House and Senate usually meet from Monday until mid-day Thursday each week. But the National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch from late Wednesday through Thursday for most of Missouri. The forecast calls for a mixture of ice and snow, depending on the location.
The Columbia Public Works department says, based on local forecasts for winter weather, the department decided to start pre-treating roadways this morning.
There have been numerous power outages in Mid-Missouri today as the area is experiencing a winter storm with high winds.

ATLANTA, GA - JANUARY 05: Ivan Johnson #44 of the Atlanta Hawks drives against Udonis Haslem #40 and Chris Bosh #1 of the Miami Heat at Philips Arena on January 5, 2012 in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Atlanta Hawks will look to start a new winning streak on Friday night when they host Kyrie Irving and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Atlanta Hawks saw their four game winning streak snapped by the Philadelphia 76ers Friday night and will be looking for a bounce-back win against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday. Atlanta blew a halftime lead on Friday night with a poor third quarter that had coach Larry Drew clearly agitated following the game.
"It got tough for us in the third quarter and we quit. That's what happened."
"Teams are going to make runs," Drew said. "It's how you respond to runs. You either man up or you fold the tent. Tonight we certainly folded the tent in that third quarter. What's disappointing is we talked about when a team makes a run, you play through it. You don't hang your heads and feel sorry for yourself, you don't start crying to officials. You have to respond by toughening up defensively, executing your stuff even harder. I've seen us do it before. Tonight we didn't do it."
The loss drops Atlanta to 11-5 on the season. Cleveland comes into Saturday night's game off a blow-out loss to a Chicago Bulls team playing without Derrick Rose. The Bulls smashed the Cavaliers 114-75 on Friday night.
Game date/time: Saturday, January 21, 7:00 p.m. ET
Location: Philips Arena, Atlanta, Georgia
TV: SportSouth
Radio: 680 The Fan, 93.7 FM
Online Streaming: NBA League Pass Broadband

I am pleased to announce Verizon's 2011 Annual Report which, for the first time, combines our financial and corporate responsibility performance.
Our CEO, Lowell McAdam, combined these reports because the two topics are increasingly bound together. This new technological era creates fresh opportunities to deepen the connection between our business interests and those of society. By reinventing our networks around mobility, broadband and global connectivity, we expand the innovative capacity of the economy and enable new business models. This in turn will create new ways to address to the world's unmet environmental and social needs.
The report highlights some of the opportunities we have in health care, sustainability and education.
We see this is a fundamental growth strategy for Verizon – one that opens new markets and creates long-term value for both society and our business. We call this creation of shared value "Shared Success" to reflect the fact creating a healthy, sustainable society is the surest path to a healthy, sustainable business.
I don't understand how you can boast of corporate responsibility when you are completely mismanaging your long-standing landline division. I do understand that the company's future is in wireless and FIOS, however, there is a huge customer base that are still landline, have no ability to move to FIOS and will not become wireless customers - these are the many homes of those people 65 and older. They represent your oldest customers, people with the same phone number for the last 50 or 60 years. People who remember party-lines, and they get the worst customer service ever. They are in neighborhoods where the lines are bad and the repairman will simply try to make it work and tell the customer "I'm sorry, we can't replace the main wires because the company won't let us".
Recently my office, a small business, changed from Verizon to comcast, because comcast came to the door and offered a better package with internet than our current bill, upon cancelling verizon, they offer a competitve Verizon package with FIOS, but the person who made the decision felt - you had this avilable and you never reached out and explained it to me, so you've been cheating me the past 5 years - he'll take comcast. He then went and changed his home service also, because he was so frustrated about being overcharged. So you lost 2 good customers to comcast because your marketing plans are not working. For current customers who are not up on the benefits of FIOS, and they don't realize they'll save money - why would they think getting something newer and better would be cheaper? You need individualized marketing approaches for your current customers, so they can see how savings will apply to them. When they see a commercial or get mass mail they don't think it applies to them, so they don't read it through (I have been in marketing most of my life - knowing your customer is the most important thing.
Finally, the strike with the unions and the current treatment of your union employees is deplorable. Perhaps the corporate level of your company doesn't realize how things are in the trenches. But you have created a situation where you have highly trained workers being micromanaged and therefore making them feel like they are not trusted, using the wrong managment strategy with workers most-often doesn't work, and the treatment of your field technicians is definitely a case where their first level and second level supervisors don't know how to treat them, and maybe more importantly, don't understand their jobs. I have been interviewing technicians (part of a labor relations paper) since the strike and have found an overwhelming feeling that Verizon would just love to get rid of them. People with 20 years of service feel they are being mistreated so badly by immediate supervisors that they "hate" going to work. People with this much knowledge should be revered at their jobs, not belittled by supervisors who can't even do their job. Surely you have some knowledge of Peter Druker and his management theories. Perhaps you should sit down and really consider how this group should be managed - then do the same for your customer service department, who seem to be clueless if you can finally speak to someone.
I do understand that your are a company in transition, but the way you manage that transition will determine the company that you are in the end. The old saying "what goes around comes around" applies to nearly everything in the universe, and here, your treatment of your oldest and loyalist customers, as well as your treatment of your union workers is showing a poor image for your future as a global company.

Like any basketball coach Jennifer White, former head women's basketball coach at St. Edward's University, was known to work for a call. Now she's the one blowing the whistle.
Jennifer White is a rookie referee calling local high school and small college games just a season removed from 17 years on the sideline as a coach.
White was a guard on two of Leon Barmore's national championship teams at Louisiana Tech and later served as an assistant coach for Jody Conradt. White traded in her coach's shirt for a striped one to stay in the game.
She says long-time rivals still call her coach and admits not every call is the correct one.
Hard work earned White playing time at LA Tech and she's applying the same work ethic to reach division one.
It may not be the usual track to becoming an official, but it's definitely been a fast one.

Product Technologies and Benefits:
- Precision Kerox Cartridges: The cartridge's job is to deliver smooth handle operation and water flow, throughout hundreds of thousands of uses, without ever leaking – all while under a punishing 60 pounds-per-square-inch of pressure. For these reasons, it is quite literally what "makes or breaks" the faucet. Kraus understands this, so they take no shortcuts here, importing their cartridges from the world's leading manufacturer of high-end precision ceramic disc cartridges, Kerox in Hungary.
- Swiss-Made NeoPerl Aerators: Aerators are possibly the most under-appreciated component within faucets. Not only do they soften the stream (preventing splashing), but they also control the straightness, diameter, overall delivery of water. Fortunately, like their cartridges, Kraus recognizes this and chooses to takes no gambles here – they import their aerators from NeoPerl in Switzerland, the world's leading manufacturer for high-end and specialty aerators.

PHOENIXVILLE - Methacton and Phoenixville had both assured themselves of berths in next weeks Pioneer Athletic Conference baseball Final Four playoffs prior to Wednesday afternoons confrontation between the two schools at Doc Kennedy Field.
Nevertheless, both Methacton coach Paul Spiewak and Phoenixville coach Jack Sturgeon would like to see their respective ballclubs win as many games as possible for specified positions in the Final Four as well as seeding for the upcoming District 1 playoffs.
They would also like to play as many people as possible in the remaining games as the season winds to a close. Wednesday, for instance, was Phoenixvilles Senior Day for nine players.
So there was some flexibility as well as some regular issues involved in how the visiting Warriors and Phantoms played the contest.
Methacton set the tone early by scoring five runs in the top half of the first inning en route to a 9-2 victory over Phoenixville that left the two sides with a split in the season series after the Phantoms won earlier at Fairview Village.
Methacton (12-5, 14-5) has one league game remaining against Spring-Ford, another Final Four team, today. Phoenixville (11-6, 12-7) closes out its slate on the road against Upper Perkiomen Friday night in Red Hill.
Four Methacton pitchers combined on a six-hitter against the Phantoms. Joey Casselberry started and went four frames for the victory, giving up two hits and one unearned run with two strikeouts and no walks. Justin Mingle, Matt Dale and Shane Burke each pitched an inning of relief.
Shane Allen hurled the first four innings for Phoenixville in taking the loss with three innings of relief from Bryan Furr.
We know Phoenixville is in the mix so this was a big game, said Casselberry, who also went 3-for-4 with a double and one run batted in at the plate. We got the five-spot in the first inning and that was nice.
The Warriors supported their pitchers with 12 hits. Casselberrys three hits give him 113 for his four-year career at Methacton, which is already a school record. The previous mark was 111 hits for a Warrior career.
I think we can compete and play with anybody, said Casselberry. Were playing pretty good. We were able to score nine runs and play great defense.
My arm is not feeling great, but Im throwing strikes. I am relaxing and making them hit my pitch. I am going back to having fun.
The first eight batters in the Warrior lineup are all hitting above the .300 mark entering this weeks games. That includes PAC-10 leader Clayton Harwick at .512, the Methacton junior catcher. Kevin Seibert had two hits and three runs scored out of the leadoff spot. Zach Harmon had two hits, one run and one RBI out of the No. 9 hole in the order.
Trip Hagner and Dale also had RBI for the Warriors.
Ryan Yenchick went 2-for-2 with a run scored for the Phantoms. Joey Little picked up an RBI on a fielders choice and a a first-inning run crossed on an error.
Brandon Hershey reached via an error in the fifth inning and scored the second Phantom run.
We came out to play this game to win, said Spiewak. Both Phoenixville and us have aspirations not only for the Final Four but for the district playoffs. There was some flexibility but there is a huge difference in an 11-7 record and a 13-5 record. We want the potential of a bye and a home game. We are looking at the big picture. We want to put ourselves in the best possible position to extend the season as long as we can.
Spiewak feels Phoenixville hs a very good team in 2012 so it was important to take the early five-run jump that the Warriors did in the first inning.
Sturgeon put the game into perspective.
I tried to give some guys some innings, said Sturgeon. They deserve to start one game their senior year. I have been pleased with my bench. They are great kids and they work hard every day. The way the games have gone, I havent been able to play them as much as I wanted to. But for one time through I wanted them to bat. I tried to balance that with going for a little bit of seeding in the league and also the district playoffs. I thought it was more important for them to get a start.
Jack Ashburn at .417 and Colin Ammon at .372 have been Phoenixvilles top hitters. ... The Phantoms nine seniors are Allen, Ammon, Ashburn, Camron Daghigh, Shae Ferguson, Hershey, Nick Kawchak, Andrew Ray and Connor Warren.... Allen will continue his baseball career at Northeastern University and Ashburn plans to walk on at the University of Nebraska.

Its better show the emotions instead of bottling them up which can do a lot more harm than good. Just because you show your emotions doesn't make you a pussy. Showing emotions is something guys should do more of.

I'm through with all the bitching and whining from everyone here, adults (and I use that term loosely) and "whippersnappers" alike. My best friend is gone now, and you don't see me doing a blog to piss and moan about it. I miss him, yes. I'm upset that he's gone. I'm angry about the behavior of certain supposed adult Christians (what a joke those folks are) on his final poll. But I don't need to whine about it. People are well aware how close we were, and it should be obvious that his leaving would leave me in a foul mood. So to all the whiners and cry babies screaming about hurt feelings and perceived offenses, I say STFU! And if you don't like it GTFO!

Lordy, Lordy, I Declare! Big Brother Is in My Underwear
If you are traveling by air in the United States, your "junk" will be inspected visually or manually by agents working for the Transportation Security Agency. Junk is hipster code for your butt, although it doesn't discriminate against your balls and/or breasts. Non-hipsters learned the term when a traveler named John Tyner used his cell phone to record his own physical pat-down, during which he balked at the professional groping and said, "If you touch my junk, I'm going to have you arrested." Tyner's confrontation with TSA agents didn't go well for his travel plans, but his video went viral and made him the new symbol of "don't tread on me" resistance to governmental excess. A new "don't touch my junk" anthem is viraling through cyberspace. (The title of this piece is a line from the song.)
Although Kim Kardashian, famous for her junk, has no qualms about being photographed totally naked, recently she opted for the pat down procedure rather than the other alternative, the Advanced Imaging Technology produced by the (ironically named company) Rapiscan. AIT produces naked images of passengers, superman-like powers that adolescents have been trying to obtain for decades. But fear not, modest travelers: faces are blurred, even though the junk is on full display to the agents behind the computers.
Keeping flying travelers safe from covertly smuggled bombs is serious business, and the techniques keep evolving in dialectical relationship to every terrorist innovation. The "holiday message" to air travelers from TSA Administrator John Pistole begins with a refresher in now-routine aspects of air traveler security: "Remember our 3 simple steps to security: Have your ID out, coats & shoes off and laptop and liquids and gels less than 3 ounces out and ready." Today, everyone takes off their shoes because on December 22, 2001, al-Qaeda acolyte Richard Reid haplessly attempted to detonate explosives in the heel of his boot while flying from Paris to Miami. Reid's shoe bomb sent stock in Velcro-closing shoe companies soaring. The restriction on gels and liquids in hand luggage has a more dubious genealogy; on August 10, 2006, British agents foiled an alleged plot cooked up by terrorist wannabes in internet chat rooms to turn liquids into bombs aboard planes. However, none of the alleged terrorists had ever made a bomb or bought any airline tickets, and some didn't even have passports. Or chemistry degrees. But the ban was on; travelers were separated from their cologne and deodorant, and women were advised not to wear gel-filled miracle bras. The coats-off requirement is a nod to suicide bomber belts, and thus most Americans may not even understand why they are removing their outer garments, since the policy is an adaptation of the Israel/Palestine checkpoint strip down procedures that Palestinians have been subjected to for a decade, so wittily lampooned by Sharif Waked in the video Chic Point.
The new junk inspection regime is the response to the 2009 Christmas Day attempt by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to explode plastic explosives tucked in his underwear while traveling from Amsterdam to Detroit. Like Reid, Abdulmutallab was a disciple of Anwar al-Aulaqi, a spiritual leader and jihadi motivator associated with the al-Qaeda franchise in the Arabian Peninsula. Al-Aulaqi, a US citizen who is based in Yemen, has been targeted by the Obama administration for extra-judicial execution, but that's the topic of a different post.
Junk exploration and surveillance might be humiliating, but it's also a rich vein for humor, like the Taiwanese animators' spoof or the nude protest by the German Pirate Party. Even the not usually funny Jeffrey Goldberg, writing in The Atlantic, could dig the potential for joking; he described an exchange that occurred during his security grope at the Baltimore-Washington airport in October: "We have to search up your thighs and between your legs until we meet resistance," [the inspector] said. "Resistance?" I asked. "Your testicles," he explained. "That's funny," I said, "because 'The Resistance' is the actual name I've given to my testicles." (I used to call my testicles "The Insurgency," but those assholes in Iraq ruined the term.)
Resistance is futile.

Gary Moore remembered
Legendary rock/metal/blues/fusion guitar hero Gary Moore died this weekend, apparently the unfortunate rocker way having a few too many to drink, according to the latest reports. Strange, seeming as he was the kind of sober guy to call on when others couldn't be relied on - Thin Lizzy guitarists Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson at various points in time due to their own drink, drug and other rowdy ways. Rest in peace, Gary!
Here are a few clips of Gary Moore over the years, including his stints with Thin Lizzy and Phil Lynnott. Above, Gary Moore and friends, which is basically Thin Lizzy, doing a slowed-down ballad version of Don't Believe A Word from the BBC program The Old Grey Whistle Test. Well, initially, before kicking off into superdrive with some awesome soloing!
Here's also Thin Lizzy, with Gary, at the top of their game, playing at the Sydney Opera house in 1978. Gary was in Thin Lizzy numerous times, from their early career, co-wrote Still In Love With You from the Night Life album, but only recorded a full length album: Black Rose - A Rock Legend, in 1979 which he is rumoured to be playing all or most guitars on, because of Scott Gorham's drug issues.
Apart from his hard rock career, solo and with Thin Lizzy, and his later blues albums, Gary Moore spent a large part of the 1970's as the guitarist of fusion, or jazz rock, band Colosseum II, and here's a super rare find: footage from the Reading Festival in 1976 and informative interviews!
Finally, from his 80's hard rock days, another of many Phil Lynnott collaborations: Out In The Fields!

Upper Macungie Township officials held a public hearing prior to Christmas on a zoning change being sought by David Jaindl and the Jaindl Land Company. In simple terms Jaindl wants to sell a plot of land at Schantz Rd and Rte. 100 for what he now calls "Project Pilgrim", but which he previously referred to as an Ocean Spray beverage plant. The land that Ocean Spray wants is part of a 60 acre parcel that is zoned Highway Commercial. A beverage plant is a permitted use in the HC zoning area, so there is nothing stopping Jaindl from selling the land to Ocean Spray and there's really nothing township officials can do to stop it from being built. So why is Jaindl looking for a zoning change?
As is usually the case, it all comes down to money. Jaindl also owns a parcel of land further south at Route 100 and Industrial Blvd that is zoned Light Industrial. The Ocean Spray plant could also be built in Light Industrial zoning but this parcel is too small for the proposed plant. Here's where the money comes in: HC land is worth somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000 per acre more than land zoned LI. Naturally Ocean Spray doesn't want to pay the higher price for HC land when it doesn't need that zoning classification, leading Jaindl to try to swap the zoning on the parcels to keep his buyer happy and his ledger balanced.
Jaindl and his team of attorneys and engineers admitted that the zoning change wasn't needed to build the Ocean Spray plant but that the factory wouldn't be built without it. Engineer Scott Pidcock wouldn't answer when asked why that was the case but I'd say there are about three million of them. And as Supervisor Sam Ashmar said at a prior meeting, "The township is being asked to make a zoning change to benefit a developer." Ashmar has come out strongly against the zoning change, citing the additional traffic it could bring to an already crowded traffic corrider.
Public comments at last weeks meeting were also strongly against the change, but where do the other two Supervisors sit on the issue? I believe Kathy Rader will vote to approve it. At a workshop meeting I attended this past summer Representative Doug Reichley very forcefully stated the case that the township should approve the change and that Governor Tom Corbett had a special interest in the project. Why is the governor taking such a special interest? Again, you just have to follow the money. The Jaindl family generously supported Corbett's bid for governor and David even served on his transition team. So the governor sends Reichley to the meeting to pass on his support. We already know that Mrs. Rader is Reichley's campaign treasurer so it's not hard to guess how she's going to vote.
That leaves board chairman Dr. Edward Earley as the deciding voice. It's obvious that Dr. Earley hates getting between Mr. Ashmar and Mrs. Rader on these votes but he's going to have to make the call and it looks like that vote is going to come quickly. After moving to table the issue in the face of heavy opposition at the public hearing Mrs. Rader has placed the issue on the agenda for this weeks reorganization meeting. By state law the reorganization meeting is being held on Tuesday night, which is a change from the township's normal Thursday night meeting. Maybe Mrs. Rader is hoping that public attendance will be down at the meeting and she can sneak this one through without anyone noticing.
The public opposition at the last meeting made a difference; I'm hoping a good turnout will help us to defeat this zoning change for the good of Upper Macungie residents.

Seems business as usual in Upper Macungie. Anyone follow Bill White's columns in The Morning Call? He brings some interesting light to Reichley's interests as well. starts at the local level and goes way up to the top. We desperately need new officials...starting with the township level.

Abbie - I couldn't agree more. The local levels of government are as swayed by the "rich" supporters of their campaigns rather than the voters. I would love to see a total overhaul of the township and introducing limited terms for all positions. Local government (or any level of government) should not be a career that is overpaid. It should be a place that someone goes to make a difference for those around them for the time that they serve doing what they actually say they will do...

Don't get discouraged. There is a very real grassroots movement in this country now to take back gov't on a federal and local scale. Regardless of political affiliation (EXP in local elections, where gov't is more hands on with public participation then representative as it is on the federal level) whether you are tea party or occupy or as the VAST majority in this country the unheard moderates, (somewhere in between), people are waking up. Citizen participation in gov't! Officials represent the people who elect them. Don't get discouraged but instead educate your neighbors! Help them get involved, invite them to meetings, talk to them about the issues, volunteer for a committee! www.facebook.com/friendslmt

I believe Ocean Spray is committed to building in the Lehigh Valley. They have agreements for water and sewer service form Lehigh County Authority. I think they will build on the land they want no matter what it is zoned and they will negotiate a price with Jaindl. Upper Macungie should not change the zoning unless it believes it will improve the overall long-term development of that large tract of land along Route 100.

Great food, slow service. I have been here many times, including hosting a banquet. They food is always great and the prices are reasonable. However, on almost every occasion, the service has been slow. On two visits, I was pretty sure they had forgotten about us and I had to get up and ask for help.
Exceptional!. After more than 2 years away (they lost their lease), Little Hong Kong is back and better than before. The seafood dishes and specials are unfailingly great. Best chow fun around! Really good and interesting combinations of foods not found at other restaurants along with the more known dishes. Great for lunch or dinner and there is a small parking lot (although street parking is not a problem). Great staff!

SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's first season in the Pac-12 proved to be a roller-coaster ride, complete with ups, downs, twists and turns.
Unfortunately for the Utes, the conference slate ended with disappointment. A surprising 17-14 loss to Colorado in the regular-season finale wound up costing them a berth in the inaugural Pac-12 championship game. The setback also assured Utah of its first losing record in conference play since 2002.
Although the Utes bounced back to defeat Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl a few weeks later, their 8-5 overall record and 4-5 mark in Pac-12 play obviously hasn't sat well. As such, they're eager to make a better showing the second time around.
"It's time to settle in and prove that we can be a contender in this conference," said quarterback Jordan Wynn. "I think everybody wants it on this team, and we've just got to go out and show it."
Expectations are high. The Pac-12 media picked the Utes to finish second in the South Division behind top-ranked USC.
"We're anxious to get going," said Utah coach Kyle Whittingham. "It was a good experience for us last year. It was a learning experience."
Even so, Whittingham insists that nothing caught the Utes off-guard or unprepared in the Pac-12. They opened conference play with losses to USC, Washington, Arizona State and California before climbing back to .500 with victories over Oregon State, Arizona, UCLA and Washington State. Then came the loss to Colorado.
"It was just a matter of going through it," Whittingham said. "You can be as prepared as you can be for something but until you actually experience it, you don't fully appreciate what it is."
Things are different now. Senior defensive tackle Star Lotulelei said everybody is comfortable with the situation and knows what needs to be done.
"I think everybody's pretty settled in. We know kind of what to expect now," Lotulelei said. "We know what kind of competition we have in the Pac-12 and I think everybody is ready."
Lotulelei, however, noted that there's still work to do as Utah prepares for a Pac-12 campaign featuring home games against USC (Oct. 4), California (Oct. 27), Washington State (Nov. 3) and Arizona (Nov. 17) and road dates at Arizona State (Sept. 22), UCLA (Oct. 13), Oregon State (Oct. 20), Washington (Nov. 10) and Colorado (Nov. 23).
Whittingham said two things will help the Utes in their second season in the Pac-12 — depth and familiarity.
"Last year there were a lot of unknowns. Plus, last year we had the distraction of the inaugural year in the Pac-12 as a big hoopla," Whittingham said. "This year that has kind of died down and it's just business as usual."
Utah returns 18 starters including national award candidates Lotulelei and John White. Lotulelei won the Morris Trophy last season as the Pac-12's top defensive lineman. White is also coming off a stellar junior season. He broke a 29-year-old school record by rushing for 1,519 yards in 2011.
The duo headlines a veteran cast that includes Wynn, who appeared in only four games last year because of a shoulder injury. His return to form is expected to open up the passing game and make the Utes much more difficult to defend under first-year offensive coordinator Brian Johnson. Wide receivers DeVonte Christopher and Dres Anderson are among the best in the Pac-12.
The biggest question marks for the Utah offense are on the line at tackle, where all-conference honorees Tony Bergstrom and John Cullen left sizeable shoes to fill. Senior Miles Mason and junior Percy Taumoelau are the front-runners to start with highly-touted true freshman Jeremiah Poutasi in close pursuit.
On defense, it all begins up front where Lotulelei anchors what may be the best line in the nation. Senior Dave Kruger, junior Joe Kruger and sophomore Nate Fakahafua are the other projected starters, along with versatile junior Trevor Reilly. He'll play both defensive end and linebacker.
Safety Eric Rowe earned Freshman All-America recognition last season and is joined in the secondary by speedy cornerbacks Ryan Lacy and Mo Lee. Junior Brian Blechen will be in the mix for the Pac-12 opener at Arizona State on Sept. 22. He'll miss the first three games of the season while serving a suspension for a violation of team rules.

Chiru waiting for good script?
Congress MP Chiranjeevi has said that he would act in film in case if someone comes up with good story. He said this as an answer to a reporter's question in Vishakapatnam today. So far people, especially the fans of megastar have been in a confusion whether Chiru would appear on silver screen or not and their confusion was cleared today with Chiru himself declaring that he was willing to come back to movies.
This is undoubtedly good news to a large fan base that Chiru has not just in the state but even in the neighbouring Karnataka. Meanwhile, sources have said that Chiranjeevi was planning to make a movie and he took permission for the same from the Congress high command.
All in all, lakhs of people who missed the amazing performance of the megastar will apparently get a chance to see the hero back on screen.
Chiranjeevi might have entered the political scene, but that doesn't stop the people from purchasing tickets to his shows once he's back to silver screen! (Phani)

The state of Florida filed a lawsuit Saturday against oil company BP and cement contractor Halliburton over the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, becoming the fourth state to seek damages for the 2010 disaster. The suit, among other things, faults BP for not changing the batteries on the rig's blowout preventer. Halliburton was blamed for installing faulty cement barriers that were supposed to gird the well against oil pressure. For full story, click here.
A U.S. judge's ruling Friday against BP Plc means the company can proceed with its appeal of the way a court-appointed administrator apportions payments for claims related to the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill, some of which BP called "absurd." Federal District Judge Carl Barbier said he found no reason to reverse his decision last month to uphold the payout process. This was despite BP's protest at payouts including $21 million for a Louisiana rice mill 40 miles (64 km) from the coast which earned more revenue in 2010 than in any of the previous three years. For full story, click here.
When we moved to talking about the impact of the oil spill, Xuan was quick to make a point straight away — that it will take another five to 10 years (at least) of gathering more information before we can know the full effects. Or, as Xuan thought, probably 20. I couldn't agree with him more. Mother Nature has her own clock. If only we, the public, would listen better. If only there were more stewards like Xuan. Since the oil spill, he's studied the coastal region between Padre Island and Florida, specifically, in the wetlands and in the dunes. From the graphics that Xuan drew for me, ants have dramatically diminished both in species and in numbers. "Except for fire ants," he said. Interestingly, fire ants, he explained, love new environments. Therefore, whether the environment has changed due to nature disturbance (hurricanes) or human disturbance (oil spill) they remain standing and a lot more. They beat up, so to speak, on the other species trying to return. For full story, click here.
The state of Louisiana has acquired more than 11,000 acres of wetlands in Livingston and Tangipahoa parishes as part of a conservation project funded by a settlement over the Deepwater Horizon disaster. The Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority of Louisiana said Monday the $6.7 million purchase of the forested wetlands on the north shore of Lake Maurepas is funded by MOEX Offshore 2007 LLC, which was a minority partner in BP's blown-out well in the Gulf of Mexico. For full story, click here.
David Hatfield, an Arkansas wildlife photographer and minister, rose before dawn on Monday and headed to Lake Conway. Even though he had lived nearby for 25 years, Hatfield never knew of the threat now oozing near this 6,700-acre habitat 25 miles north of Little Rock, the largest game and wildlife commission reservoir in the United States. "It surprised me that we had a pipeline here," he said. But ExxonMobil's Pegasus pipeline has been buried here for more than six decades, quietly propelling oil between Texas and Illinois beneath the backyards of Mayflower, Arkansas. Pegasus' years in obscurity ended March 29, when it ruptured, spilling at least 12,000 barrels (504,000 gallons/1.9 million liters) of heavy Canadian crude oil and water into the neighborhood. For full story, click here.
By analyzing satellite images, oceanographers have found that small oil spills in the heavily drilled northern Gulf of Mexico are often much larger than reported. The researchers presented their results last week at the Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill and Ecosystem Science Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana. Small oil spills — ranging from oil-drilling mishaps to ships discharging fuel — occur with surprising regularity, and tend to escape the public's attention that follows big spills. When someone spills petroleum or derived products in US waters, the accident must be reported to the US Coast Guard's National Response Center in Washington DC. Those who report such spills are required to provide their own estimates of the area affected. For full story, click here.
Two projects to restore nesting areas for shorebirds and sea turtles in Florida, Alabama and Mississippi, totaling $9 million, have received preliminary approval from federal and state trustees for the BP oil spill, according to a notice published in the Federal Register on Tuesday. BP will pay for the projects from a $1 billion fund the company has set aside after an explosion at its deep water Macondo well sent 4.1 million barrels of oil into the Gulf in 2010. For full story, click here.

All Expertise
We help our clients improve the return on their CapEx investments in four specific ways:
Maximizing the value of large capital projects and increasing the predictability of their outcome
We work closely with owners/developers and contractors to achieve higher lifecycle returns for their large capital projects, in less time and with greater predictability, by moving from traditional activity-focused project and contractor management to a value maximization approach for end-to-end project delivery. We achieve this with expertise and support across the entire project lifecycle in the following key ways.
We ensure the project is fully optimized before construction begins with a sharp view on value and risk by:
We prepare for and maintain flawless execution with world class functional expertise by:
We ensure all the necessary supporting capabilities are in place by
Providing owners/developers an unbiased assessment of the readiness of their project to proceed with the McKinsey Investment Readiness Assessment(MIRA)
To help companies apply the same analytical rigor to capital projects as they do to mergers and acquisitions, McKinsey has established a new approach to conduct due diligence on major capital projects. At the heart of this due diligence approach is the MIRA, which evaluates five dimensions of a capital project (technical issues, execution requirements, market factors, political and regulatory concerns, and organizational capabilities) against five readiness criteria (degree of project definition, degree of project optimization, quality of risk assessment, maturity of planning for the next stage, and adequacy of resources).
The outcome of this diagnostic is a heatmap that shows our clients exactly which parts of their projects are sufficiently advanced and which require further work. The heatmap ensures that decision making is more transparent and based on accurate facts since it highlights the critical gaps that must be addressed before the project is ready for successful execution.
Improving the overall value of the entire capital project investment portfolio, with a particular focus on small and medium sized capital projects
Small and medium sized capital projects of less than ~$100 million can represent 20–40 percent of the total CapEx spend in capital-intensive industries and can represent more than 80 percent of all capital projects, yet they often receive insufficient management attention. We find that better management of this "small CapEx" portfolio with a rigorous value focused approach, stretching from business case and concept development all the way to execution and ramp-up, can translate into 2–4 percent ROIC improvement. Together with a better value maximization approach on large projects this is also a crucial prerequisite for better capital allocation at the corporate level.
Building world class capital project organizations (at the corporate and project level) and by building the skills and capabilities of these organizations
Our expertise, proprietary tools, and databases that support our work are based on more than 100 capital projects engagements we do each year and a detailed understanding of best practices of the most successful Asian companies.
Additionally, we bring the full weight of our functional and industry expertise to bear on behalf of our clients, including:
Clients can build capabilities in lean manufacturing, quality control, green operations and more at our global network of model factories.more

<<Return to the Learning Zone During our workshops over the past few months, I have often been asked the question "Where is the best place in Beijing to photograph….?" Now, you can insert pretty much anything you like into the last part of that question, as queries have come in to me about a myriad of different things. So, I thought it would be interesting to start a new series of posts that answers some of these questions about where I think are the best places to photograph in Beijing.
I have chosen Beijing for this focus, purely because I have lived in this city for nearly 4 years and like to think I have a good idea where things are and where are the best places for taking pictures. I would like to expand this concept to other cities in China, but I'll start with my 'home' city first.
So, for the first part of these new posts, I answer the question "Where is the best place in Beijing to photograph…religion?"

Hi guys,
I'm going crazy over this problem. I have my Datasource all set up, but it's in no particular order, in fact due to the Database structure and its return in PHP, having the Datasource sorted the way I want initially will get ugly. Basically I want YUI's Datatable to sort by a field right away instead of having the user click the column first. Is there a way I can instruct YUI to do this after the datatable is loaded? Remember I"m not talking about using the sortedBy option , which won't help my cause since the Datasource is not sorted initially. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks! Lawrence |
You can call the sortColumn method in response to initEvent. It is likely to produce a flicker since the table will be drawn unsorted and then redrawn sorted. Depending on the size of your data it might be noticeable or not. Actually, noticeable it will be, it might be annoying or not.
Another alternative is to override method doBeforeCallBack from DataSource. The default method does nothing but return its parsedResponse argument unchanged. This method is meant to be overridden, it is a hook placed there to do this kind of manipulation and whatever it is you return from that method is what the DataTable will see. The parsedResponse argument is an object with several properties, one of which is going to be an array containing all your data. You can sort that array with JavaScript native Array.sort function and return the parsedResponse object with the sorted array within. This will be faster and will not produce any flicker as the DataTable would not have been drawn yet. |
Perfect! Thanks for the quick response and all your activity in the JS world! All your posts are extremely helpful.
Ah sorry to be a pain. My Datasource is a multi-dimensional json array. It doesn't seem I can use the basic array.sort methods to sort by a given field in this JSON array.
So I am trying your first suggestion but am not getting anywhere, mind you its my first time working with initEvent and the sortColumn method. I thought I would just be able to subscribe to the initEvent and call the method, but that seems to be returning an error. Here's a snippet of some of the code I have so far: Code: var myDataTable = new YAHOO.widget.DataTable("sortHome", myColumnDefs, myDataSource); myDataTable.subscribe('initEvent', myDataTable.sortColumn('pts')); And here's the error I get in Firebug: "Invalid callback for subscriber to 'initEvent'" I've been using YUI for a while now, but mostly working off of examples so in theory I'm still a newbie. Thanks for the helping hand. |
By the time doBeforeCallback gets called, your data should have been flattened to a plain array so even if you are using dot notation in the fields array to access hierarchical data, the fields would have been extracted by then. There is another overriddable method, doBeforeParseData where your data is still raw, you would be in trouble with that one, but doBeforeCallback happens after that and just before the DataTable gets its data, which can only be flat.
If you are unraveling the hierarchical structure in the formatter function of each column def then, as much as possible, don't. The correct place to flatten the structure is in the DataSource, either with the built-in parsers, the dot notation for hierarchical JSON data or by providing your own parsers. The problem with your listener is that you are not providing a reference to the function to be called but the result of calling the function. The parenthesis with the arguments after the callback function name will make it execute immediately and return a value. To pass arguments to an event listener, you have to use the third argument which will get merged with the arguments the event will naturally provide. See: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/docs/YAH ... #method_on |
Thanks Satyam,
I took more time to research the implementation of all this as it is a first. So I'll just break down some sources and code in case it will help anyone else reading this post. At first I was unfamiliar with doBeforeCallback, so I researched it more and ran into another one of your posts about datatables which had an example using the doBeforeCallback. That post was here: http://yuiblog.com/blog/2008/10/15/data ... -part-one/ From there I just console.log'ged what I needed. For example, I wasn't sure of the structure of 'oParsedResponse' so I checked it out and found out that all my results are in objects in 'oParsedResponse.results'. I then needed a little 101 on JS array sorting. The 'brain block' in my head was how can I sort this out if it's in a multi-dimensional array or in this case multiple objects. All the sort examples I've seen on the net are all straight forward non associative arrays. If you're new to array sorting a good example and explanation for array sorts can be found here http://www.javascriptkit.com/javatutors/arraysort.shtml. Turns out the Array.sort method accepts a parameter which can take in a custom method which from what I can tell compares values and acts depending whether the result is negative, 0, or positive. From there, with some more console.logging I ended up with the following code which is now working well: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> YAHOO.util.Event.onDOMReady(function() { var myColumnDefs = [ {key:"player",label:"Jouer",sortable:true}, {key:"g",label:"B",sortable:true}, {key:"a",label:"A",sortable:true}, {key:"pts",label:"PTS",sortable:true}, {key:"pim",label:"PUN",sortable:true} ]; var myDataSource = new YAHOO.util.DataSource(YAHOO.example.Data.stats); myDataSource.responseType = YAHOO.util.DataSource.TYPE_JSARRAY; myDataSource.responseSchema = { fields: ["player","g","a","pts","pim","ppg"] }; myDataSource.doBeforeCallback = function (oRequest, oFullResponse, oParsedResponse, oCallback) { oParsedResponse.results.sort(sortPts); return oParsedResponse; }; var myDataTable = new YAHOO.widget.DataTable("sortHome", myColumnDefs, myDataSource, {sortedBy:{key:"pts", dir:"asc"}}); return { oDS: myDataSource, oDT: myDataTable }; }() ); function sortPts(a, b){ return b.pts - a.pts; } </script> The main thing to look at that I needed in order to sort my dataset is the 'myDataSource.doBeforeCallback' and the sortPts method. If you look at my function sortPts you'll see that you can sort by comparing object values. All in all a productive day! Thanks Satyam |
I am using YUI version 2.8.1. Has something changed in the matter of the initial sorting? I don't want "flicker" effect and sorting by hand I found a way to sort records after calling setRecords method, it's sends "recordsSetEvent" event, but there is a bug with creating this event. Of course, I can fix it, but it's not clearly way. What can you advise me? Regards, Eugene. |
I don't recall any significant changes since the posts above. The code in the codebox of the posting before your question should still work and produce no flicker at all.
The DataTable never sorted records when the sortedBy configuration attribute was given. The idea for that attribute is for the DataTable to reflect the sorting done server-side, it was never a command to get data sorted. That is still the best alternative, adding an ORDER BY clause to your SQL statement is still the best, but, if you need to do it client side, the code above should work nicely. |

In Topic: which big Rev is better in light winds?
15 May 2013 - 09:47 AM
Dayhiker is correct in his post, if you are battling changing wind conditions where the wind drops out, you will have the same problem with the 2-4 as you do with your 1.5's. Best situation for super light winds would be the full sail 1.5 series with 2 wrap rods, this way when the winds drop out you can still work the kite by backing up and keeping it in the air.
I am afraid that the 2-4 is not going to make those conditions much better for you. It will however be a blast to fly when the winds do pick up and will pull you around a ton! (which is always fun!)

The Super Blast 2-4 would be easier to fly in those winds. The 4-8 would be even better.

Yes, the flying field is very rough, I broke through a warn pair of sneekers the first year and ended up with bruised / blistered feet. The clumps of weed/grass is hard on your feet. Get a good pair of good soled shoes. It ain't a sandy beach for sure!

In light winds it is nearly impossible to break anything, 2 wraps rarely ever get broken unless they are flown in winds that are stronger. That being said, 4 wraps always take the most severe abuse because they are always flown in the strongest winds. The kite is alway flying its fastes as well, meaning that when it contacts the ground or other objects, the impace is more severe. We sell more 3 wrap and 4 wrap replacement rods than 2 wraps.
