Facts about Lucy 12151
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Female
- ID#: 5396744-12151 Hair: Unknown
My name is Lucy 12151!
Lucy 12151's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
A Touch of the Wild
Don't let Lucy's exotic dark spots, bright green eyes, and soft, chirpy meow fool you. She's a true sweetheart who would be right at home in your living room. She gets a bit nervous in noisy situations or around strangers, but a person who takes the time to get to know her will be rewarded by a loving kitty that sleeps in their bed and follows their footsteps all around the house.
One of Lucy's pastimes is sitting in the window of her foster home and growling at the feral cats outside. She'd probably do best as an only cat, but careful introduction to other pets might work just fine, too.

About Feral Friends Community Cat Alliance
About Our Rescue Group...
Our mission is to assist the community to reduce feline overpopulation. We accomplish this mission with two programs.Our adoption program called Rescue and Re-Home places cats and kittens for adoption into loving homes.
Our feral cat program called Race to Reduce Litters utilizes TNR (Trap, Neuter and Return) to help control feral cat breeding and overpopulation. Cats are humanely trapped, sterilized and vaccinated against rabies and are returned to their original location where human caregivers provide food. Kittens from feral colonies are tamed and entered into our adoption program.
Come Meet Our Pets...
We hold our adoptions on Saturday's from 11-4. Our locations are PetSmart N. Dallas at 16821 Coit Rd.Dallas, TX 75248 and PetSmart Rowlett at 5709 Liberty Grove, Rowlett, TX 75088.
We also hold adoptions during the week by appointment.
Our Adoption Process...
Our adoption fees are $105 for adults and $135 for kittens. All cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, tested for feline AIDS and leukemia, microchipped and treated for parasites.In addition, we offer a free 30 day pet health insurance policy.

"It is far better to foresee even without certainty than not to foresee at all."
Henri Poincare
"We can never establish with certainty what part of our relations with others is the result of our emotions - love, antipathy, charity, or malice - and what part is predetermined by the constant power play among individuals."
Milan Kundera
"Let no one expect anything of certainty from astronomy, lest if anyone take as true that which has been constructed for another use, he go away...bigger fool than when he came to it."
"Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof."
Ashley Montagu
"If the issue is, is it a near certainty that at some time in the future there will some group, probably a terrorist group, that attempts to bring to bear either the use or the threat of a chemical or biological operation, I would say that is highly likely to happen sometime in the next few years."
Bill Clinton
"He is no wise man that will quit a certainty for an uncertainty"

"Of what use, however, is a general certainty that an insect will not walk with his head hindmost, when what you need to know is the play of inward stimulus that sends him hither and thither in a network of possible paths?"

"It is some fundamental certainty which a noble soul has about itself, something which is not to be sought, is not to be found, and perhaps, also, is not to be lost. The noble soul has reverence for itself."

Throughout my life I've been an avid big game and small game hunter. I've been to Alaska, Canada, and many different states for these pursuits. I enjoy firearms, own rifles, pistols, muzzloaders and shotguns. The right to bear arms is one that I value, not only for myself, but also for my clients. Felonies, and some misdemeanors threaten to remove one's right to bear arms and firearm hunting. I'm an attorney who takes this liberty very seriously. I'll take it seriously for you too.
I'm a licensed private pilot who routinely flies about 150 hours per year. I've flown to many different airports including Palwaukee, Atlanta, and other less busy airports. I'm very familiar with the federal requirements that impact every flight. I also have other friends that fly different types of aircraft and are a valuable source of information in this endeavor.
I enjoy working with my clients. I understand their fear entering into the legal arena. I can offer my vast experience to help lessen their fears. I believe that explaining every aspect of each proceeding helps my clients understand what they will experience in court. This in turn eases their minds and helps them in assisting me provide them the best representation they can receive.

Cleve Francis
Cleve Francis
While he dreamed of a career in country music as a boy and even learned guitar as a youth, performing seemed destined to became only a hobby when Cleve Francis obtained his degree from the Medical College of Virginia in 1973. Francis moved to Washington, D.C., and established himself as a cardiologist. However, he was soon moonlighting in local clubs as a singer, and even self-released three albums on his own label. Francis' real break came through heart-attack patient Olaf Hall, whose brother was "Big John" Garfield Hall, a member of the R&B band the Heartbeats. Big John helped Francis get an audition with Playback Records, who signed him and released an album; while it didn't sell well, his debut single and video, "Love Light," released in 1990, both won critical acclaim. The widespread attention led to a deal with Liberty, who released Francis' Tourist in Paradise in 1991, when he was 48. It marked the first prominent contract for a black country artist since Charley Pride. The album featured a re-recorded version of "Love Light"; it and two other cuts from the record became minor chart hits. Two years later Francis returned with Walkin', which appeared on Capitol. Its title track made a few waves, but failed to make him a household name. You've Got Me Now appeared in 1994 on Liberty, but by 1995 Francis had left the industry and returned to his medical career. In 1998, he was one of the motivational forces behind Warner's From Where I Stand: The Black Experience in Country Music. ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

Henry Cavill: 'Man of Steel' Superman suit was hard to pee in but worth it
"Man of Steel" star Henry Cavill is officially part of the superhero movie club. He's learned something most who wear one of those hero costumes come to terms with over time: It's really hard to use the bathroom.
In an interview with E! News, Cavill talked about the difficulty of being able to take a break to relieve himself in between takes. "There was no fly," he says, "There was no zipper. So it's just one of those things where you got to wait for the right time."
His costar, and movie dad, Russell Crowe agrees, adding "You couldn't get your bits and pieces out of it." According to Crowe, it took about 25 minutes to remove the costume from Cavill. It doesn't sound like something the actor would change, though.
"It's a Superman suit and as much as it may feel uncomfortable at points, you get over it. You get to play Superman," Cavill says, "You get to be wearing Superman's suit. Every time you turn around and look in the mirror it's, you are Superman."
Cavill isn't the first to lament about the difficulty of using the bathroom when you're a superhero. While promoting "The Amazing Spider-Man" in 2012, Andrew Garfield talked about the difficulties he ran into wearing his famous suit.

Former Seneca College student appeals his suspension to human rights tribunal
Grant Hutchinson says he shouldn't have been kicked out for harassing behaviour related to mental illness.
Grant Hutchinson is a former computer programming student at Seneca College.
The 25-year-old was suspended for violating the school email policy by sending offensive emails in March 2012. He was kicked out a year later, before completing his two-year diploma, after pleading guilty to criminally harassing a member of the Seneca administration.
However, he alleges the college discriminated against him due to his mental health diagnoses (depression, anxiety and a personality disorder, according to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario documents).
Earlier this week, he was granted the chance to plead his case to the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario in a hearing that could highlight the fine line post-secondary institutions walk when it comes to guarding community safety versus individual student rights and accommodation for mental-health disabilities.
"My behaviour was directly linked to my mental-health disabilities," he says. "It shouldn't take a psychiatrist to realize that."
Seneca College can't comment while the case is before the tribunal, said a spokesperson.
Hutchinson has battled mental-heath problems since high school, but says he was doing better when he enrolled at Seneca in January 2011. He was focused on achieving his diploma and getting a job he'd enjoy, he says.
His classes were taught on the York University campus and he lived in a nearby residence building.
Then in September of that year, things turned bad.
On the morning of Sept. 19, 2011, police took Hutchinson from his residence room to Humber River Regional Hospital for a mental-health assessment after his neighbour in the York University residence alleged he threatened her life.
Hutchinson denies making any such threat, though he says he repeatedly reported his neighbours for making too much noise in the weeks prior.
He was released from hospital that day, he says.
In the months that followed, the situation escalated.
Hutchinson complained repeatedly to staff at both York and Seneca about what he views as a "traumatic" invasion of his home and the humiliating experience of being dragged out of his residence in front of students in handcuffs.
In frustrated and angry emails, he repeatedly asked for financial compensation. His appeal to the Landlord and Tenant Board over the police entering his room was denied.
His behaviour at a public safety meeting on March 1, 2012, got him banned from the York campus, which he says made it impossible for him to attend classes and sit exams. (A York spokesperson told the Star the university is not able to provide information "about an individual and his or her circumstances.")
Less than three weeks later, Seneca closed his email account for sending offensive messages. Later, he was suspended from the college for two semesters, and his appeal of the decision was denied.
Attached to one of those emails, he says, was an image of comedian Stephen Colbert eating popcorn, wearing 3D glasses. He says it was intended to show he was entertained by the appeal proceedings. However, he says it was misunderstood as a reference to the Aurora theatre shooting.
"I do understand and sympathize with the fears behind the growing problem of school shootings," he says. "But (my case) has nothing to do with that."
He pleaded guilty to criminal harassment of a member of the Seneca administration in February 2013. He was granted a conditional discharge.
That plea, related to his "overtly aggressive, abusive and threatening manner," is one of the reasons he is currently not permitted to re-enroll nor step foot on Seneca property, according to a March 28 letter from Seneca College.
The case before the tribunal underscores the challenges colleges and universities can face navigating the conflict between campus safety and protection of student rights.
"It's a tough question. We're forever balancing the accommodations and rights of individuals with disabilities and the safety of the campus and those individuals themselves," says Marc Wilchesky, the executive director of counselling and disability services at York University. He was not commenting on a specific case.
"You can very well understand why someone may have an anger management problem as a result of their mental-health condition, but if there is a behaviour that is dangerous to the community or to themselves, we still have to deal with it."
To that end, many universities and colleges, including York, have "threat assessment teams" or "student risk committees" where a group of faculty, student advisers, security staff and counsellors identify students who may be considered a threat to others or themselves (mental heath is not always a factor in these cases).
"The counsellor's position on the team is to advocate for the student," says Kathy Lazenby, the director of health and counselling services for the campus health centre at UOIT and Durham College. "We are always trying to see how to keep a student on campus, and successful . . . But if it reaches the point where there is criminal activity, it then becomes a (matter for the police)."
The best approach is to work with the student before that happens, she said.
Earlier this year, the province announced a plan to spend $27 million on programs over three years to tackle the growing number of post-secondary students facing mental-health problems. That includes setting up a new 24-hour helpline and a Centre for Innovation on Campus Mental Health.
Meanwhile York, like many other universities, is in the process of launching a new mental-health strategy that will focus on being proactive and preventative rather than reactive, says Wilchesky.
"A large focus of that will be really educating people about not jumping to conclusions; it's not always what it appears to be," he says, adding that York is developing an "early alert" system where faculty and staff will be able to detect signs of distress in students before they reach a crisis point.
"Universities and colleges do set up lots of checks and balances to ensure that there is no unfair or unjust labelling, or discrimination," notes Su-Ting Teo, the head of Ryerson University's student medical centre. "Of course, Virginia Tech and Colorado and all those things are something universities keep in mind, to make sure we're doing the best that we can to prevent those incidents."
As for Hutchinson, he views the problems he has had in the past two years as a mental-health "speed bump" to which most people don't know how to respond. He hopes the tribunal hearing will help him return to Seneca (at the York campus), where he says his social life is.
"If I can't get my life back to where it was prior to the bump, then it wasn't a bump," he says. "It was a wall."
Clarification: July 12, 2013: This article was edited from a previous version to include the information that Grant Hutchison was granted a conditional discharge after he plead guilty to criminal harassment and to make clear that his diagnosis as is reported in this article is as stated in Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario documents.

Wine integration
mingw-w64 has a lot in common with The Wine project. The idea is to share as much code as possible to avoid work duplication. This pages describes ideas, status and TODOs for co-operation between mingw-w64 and Wine.
widl is Wine reimplementation of MIDL, Microsoft IDL compiler.
- Needs to be imported to mingw-w64 SVN and added to build system.
- Licensing worries: WIDL is LGPL-ed and its produced code must not enforce any licensing limits. Current understanding is that autogenerated code inherits IDL license. There are some code chunks in generated code that are not autogenerated, so they imply LGPL license. Alexandre Julliard (their author) agreed to relicense them. They could be also avoided by using compiler exceptions.
mingw-w64 requires the same headers set as Wine does. In theory, we could use almost the same headers.
- Review is needed to decide which headers and how should be merged
- A semi-automated way is needed for merges
Initial script committed to experimental tree wine/wine-import.sh
- winetest can be used to validate merges
- Wine build system needs to support using external header set. See bellow.
- mingw-w64 must be able to compile tests. It involves both fixes to headers and Wine (that are rarely tested against non-wine headers)
- Wine uses WINELIB_NAME_AW macros, mingw-w64 MINGW_NAME_AW. Ideally we should have compatible names.
- Wine can't use L"..." for UNICODE strings. This implies complications in string definitions. An automated way for changing them is required (magic comments?))
IDL files
- Wine IDL files are LGPL-ed, which may imply LGPL typelibs and proxy/stubs. Temporary solution: not include IDL files in base product, provide them in an optional SDK. Long term solution: probably needs lawyer consultation.
- Investigate if Wine's .spec files will be useful for mingw-w64.
- Needs investigation
libs like uuid
- Low priority
Compiling Wine tests
Wine has its test suite. Although it's primary aimed to test Windows behavior, not header files, it makes extensive use of header files, so it's a good candidate for testing them. In typical configuration, Wine uses its own headers. Using this patch (waiting for the end of code freeze for inclusion) it's possible to compile Wine tests with mingw-w64 headers. Here are steps how to do that:
- Get Wine source (from SourceForge? or git)
- Apply mentioned patch:
$ wget http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/attachments/20100610/8024ea7e/attachment.bin $ patch -p1 <attachment.bin
- Make a special directory that will replace Wine's include directory:
$ mkdir $HOME/mingw-w64/wine-include $ ln -s $HOME/wine/include/wine $HOME/mingw-w64/include/wine
- Configure Wine (to test on x86, ignore --enable-win64 argument):
$ CROSSINCLUDES=-I/home/jacek/mingw-w64/wine-include/ ./configure --enable-win64
- Compile Wine (FIXME: complete compilation is not needed, investigate smarter way):
$ make
Now you can compile tests. Ideally, make crosstest should do the trick, but we are far from there yet. The easiest way is compile one file at the time. Tests are organized in files dlls/dll_name/tests/test_name.c and eg. make dlls/mshtml/tests/misc.cross.o will compile misc tests of mshtml.dll.
To get a list of successes/failures, run script:
echo >good echo >bad for f in $(ls */*/tests/*.c |sed 's/\.c//'); do rm -f $f.cross.o if make $f.cross.o; then echo $f >>good else echo $f >>bad fi done
It will create two files: good and bad that contain tests that succeeded and failed. Now if you want to verify that there was no regression, you can run:
$ for f in $(cat good); do make $f.cross.o; done
if you're looking for failures to fix, run:
$ for f in $(cat bad); do make $f.cross.o; done

Expected a more rich flavor. It becomes a bit harsh when not carefully smoked. A spicy character giving off a spicy, smoky note. A tobacco that needs some work and thinking in order to define accurately its contents, properties.

"Hetfield" persisted and prompt me to ask from a friend to bring me this blend. He wasn't wrong. Finally, a Planta mixture that is close enough to my own preferences. It is quite coarse cut and maybe that is the reason it is a bit difficult to light it up. On the other hand, its cutting assists it to smoke very slowly. Other than that, it has enough sweet and flavorful Syrian Latakia. It also contains Virginia which might cause a slight tongue bite, if smoked nervously. It is stated on the box, after all, «mild on the tongue». Perique didn't trouble me much, like in other blends. It so happens, that after a good meal…it really fits. So, it is not an all day smoke. It is quite moist, thus I had to dry it out for 2 whole days. It has that distinct aroma, almost all Planta blends contain.

I tried this after it was recommended to me by the man behind the counter at my favorite pipe shop. I had never heard of Wellauer's before. I bought a 100-gram tin, which was very reasonably priced at $11.00, I think. It's a solid, quality English blend. At different times, you can taste the various tobaccos; the latakia does not overwhelm you. I can think of better English blends, but this one is pretty good. Tastes differ, so this could be someone else's favorite. By the way, the tin says it contains perique, which is not listed in the ingredients at the top of this page. There doesn't seem to be very much, though, probably just a pinch.

A decent english blend, though posed me a series of problems. I wasn't able to light it properly, I never found the Perique it claims to contain, which was the actual reason that I bought this tobacco. My last bowl was a nightmare-if ever existed a last bowl, for I never managed to light it up and smoke it. Am I too amateur for that kind of cut? Did I forgot how to fill my pipe? No matter what, I will try it again after a (very long) while....

I had run out of regular, all-day English mixtures, so I visited my trusted tobacconist's a bit off-schedule to find what he had to offer at this time. This blend was in there, and when asked for a description, he just shrugged. I looked up Wellauer's English Blend in Pipe Tool (though the database is a bit out of date, still a great app, highly recommended!) and found it recommended, so I bought the tin.
In the tin, there is a very wide cut of mostly bright VA with some Oriental in evidence, and a small but noticeable amount of Latakia. The tin note is of generic cosmetics, but not in too bad a way: there is a heavy topping on there.
With this sort of leaf, you have to use your widest bowls, so that's what I did. Lights up OK straight out of the tin; a little wait after stuffing lets some of the topping evaporate making for a better smoke IMHO. The burn is even, but needs a little experience, and in the end, there is some dottle left, but not all that much for such a wide cut.
The taste is sweet and gently spicy, the topping does not make it into the taste to any large extent, and I get large plumes of smoke out of this blend without it burning hot. Not too much strength in there. The room note is OK, though not exactly brilliant. I get a slight, lingering aftertaste, which is not bad at all.
From what I can find out, it seems that this blend is still being produced by Wellauer's for Switzerland only, and Planta of Germany are producing it for the rest of (at least) Europe; given the different laws on tobacco in Switzerland, the Swiss version may be quite different.
Overall, not a bad blend. It does not really compare favourably with some other broad cuts like e.g. 34th Mixture, but for the price asked, it is definitely recommendable. I'd recommend a good Bourbon to go along, or a strong black tea.

This mixture is not bad, a very good Virginia, which is what predominates in all directions. But call it the mixture, it would be incorrect, missing a piece in my opinion, that the Latakia!
I wanted to try with an addition of 40% CIPRIAN LATAKIA............. and great great surprise! A wonderful smoky taste, sweet and smoky, easy to smoke, with a pleasant aftertaste so I never tried! What a wonderful discovery!
Therefore, all evaluations will be for my composition, not to blend the original!
If someone wants to try .........not regret it!

I like this blend a lot and have only tried the tinned version; a medium fine ribbon cut. A great all day English type along the lines of sqaudron leader. This tobacco burns well to a fine ash at the bottom, is easy on the tongue and does not dry out my mouth. It has enough complexity in the flavor and aroma to maintain interest and does so bowl after bowl. The Syrian Latakia is smooth and creamy. It's a little amusing reading these reviews where tobaccos are put to the test of satisfying a very narrow set of criteria. Having been in the wine and restaurant business for many years, such a parallel exists where good, bad and so on become absolutes. As I enjoy blends like GLP Odyssey, Charing Cross and Abingdon, and Penzance, Margate and Pelikan from others, it's nice to smoke an English or Balkan that goes well with your morning Latte. I have tried several tins of this Swiss mixture and keep it in my rotation mixed with some very big reds and some Grignolinos, Barbarescos and Beaujolais. Give Wellauer's a try to expand the range of your English/Balkans.

It is difficult to obtain Wellauer's English Blend. And, it is not worth the effort. I was able to procure the 50g pouch--a poor presentation in itself. The cut of the tobacco is like miniature corn flakes. There is a mild, foul casing in the smell that does not improve when smoked. This is harsh, disgusting stuff. Do not waste the effort or the funds on this rubbish.

Maybe I picked up the wrong pouch, but this tobacco seemed almost too young to be smoked. The smell in the pouch was of fresh grass, earthy, raw; and the same during the smoke. It's no smoky at all, nothing like any english blend smoked before, and I didn't like it.

I see where most of the esteemed reviewers here believe Wellauer's English Blend to be an outstanding tobacco and I heartily concur. I have never seen this tobacco presented in a pouch, it has always been in tinned form as far as I know. I received several well aged tins a couple of years ago and smoked them all over the course of a year.
Like the esteemed Jakob K., I found the visual presentation to be somewhat unusual for an English type tobacco. The cut is wide and even chunky. The Latakia presence is there in droves, and at the match I detected an unusual "spice" that bordered on an acidic taste - similar to a strong French coffee.
If you like semi-heavy English flavor and don't mind an unusually slow burning blend, then this tobacco will probably please. It is cool and dry with a fresh and clean taste.
It is also hard to find.

This one is a stouter version of Wellauer's "Best" My tin was from '87 with vacuum seal intact. Upon opening the tin I was greeted with a quite unusual flavouring - very German as in many Torben Dansk products, but also very discreet. The Syrian Latakia smells very different from the Cyprian used nowadays, and it tends to be somewhat more rounded and mild.
WEB is cross-cut, which is rather unusual for an English blend, but it works fine and relights will not be necessary. The orientals are very present thoughout the bowl, and they make WEB a very pungent, but at the same time also a very cool affair.
I like it as a change of pace to many of the traditional English blends since it tastes more "fresh"; recommended for a sunny day on the porch.
Only downside is that WEB sometimes leaves an alkalious taste on the back of your tongue if smoked to hard. Handle with care!

This is a sleeper blend. While it does not have extensive distribution, it is a blend that contains quality components, good smoking experience, and is reasonably priced.
Appearance: The blend is a shorter ribbon cut that is primarily medium brownish red of various shades. There is no blond nor black leaf in this mix. I found it to be overly wet when it arrived, but it aired out nicely.
The tin aroma has the somewhat sour smell that I associate with Dunhill tinned blends.
Bowl preparation qualities are very good. It fills the bowl nicely without overpacking. It is easy to get a bowl set up with a light touch to the bottom potion, but firmly packed toward the top without plugging.
The blend develops nicely through the course of the bowl, a characteristic that I value highly; I don?t want to experience the same flavor from top to bottom. Sweetness is a bit on the low end of the scale, while the spice and astringency is at the higher end. There is an elusive floral sense early in the bowl that settles down into a deep, robust spiciness later.
This is a real winner. As far as I have seen, it is available in 100g tins only, which I find unfortunate. I would prefer 50g tins, but this is a minor point. I wish that it were more readily available, as I have rarely seen it.
Rated 85/100 for flavor, 80/100 for burning characteristics, and 85/100 overall. An excellent smoke.

This is a northern european attempt at making an "english" blend and IMO they have done very well, indeed. Upon opening the tin, you are greeted by an aroma and appearance very similar to Dunhill's nightcap, but you will discern the Syrian latakia as opposed to the Dunhill's Cyprian offerring. Moisture seems a little high, but does not seem to affect burn which is about two relights to get going. The initial flavor is wonderful with a distinct pungency common to this type of blend. The perique is noticable but not in your face and settles down about mid-bowl to let the other leaves shine. The interplay between the virginia and syrian latakia is wonderful. The turkish is there, but only as support.Toward the end of the bowl, strength builds, but not in an overpowering way. The ash that is left is dry and you are ready for more. This blend is not as full as nightcap despite the likenesses previously stated, so that this can be an all-day smoke. Pricewise, this is very affordable. A 100g tin only cost $12.00 U.S. Give this one a whirl, I believe you will enjoy it thoroughly. Rating 4.5 out of 5 points

OAK No. 1 Airport for On-Time Arrivals in 2009 01/12/2010
"Oakland International Airport is, by industry standards, a high-performance facility. This statistical acknowledgment by FlightStats speaks to that and to the outstanding aeronautical reliability of OAK," commented Omar Benjamin, executive director, Port of Oakland, which owns and operates the airport. "We're an on-time leader not just among Bay Area airports, but all airports in North America. I'm very proud of this accomplishment, and of the efforts of our staff and tenants in achieving this status. It is a result of our investments in customer service and infrastructure at OAK over the past few years," he added.
In addition to time savings, travelers can feel good that they are reducing their carbon footprint by choosing to fly OAK where fewer aircraft are circling the airport waiting to land and idling on the ground awaiting take-off clearance. Aircraft taxi times at OAK average five to seven minutes less than those at other Bay Area airports.
FlightStats' data also show that two U.S. airlines which serve OAK achieved No. 1 status for on-time arrivals in 2009. Hawaiian Airlines, categorized by FlightStats as a regional carrier, had 91.8 percent of all flights arriving on time. Hawaiian offers a daily nonstop flight between OAK and Honolulu, Hawaii. In summer 2010, the airline will add a daily flight to Maui from OAK. Southwest Airlines led the major carriers with 82.5 percent of all flights arriving on time. Southwest, OAK's largest airline, offers Bay Area travelers 114 daily departures from OAK effective May 2010.
FlightStats is an organization that tracks and compiles data about the airline industry. The company examined data for the 40 busiest airports in the United States, Canada and Mexico, and 45 U.S. scheduled passenger airlines. On time means flights arriving at the gate within 15 minutes of the scheduled arrival time. Visit flightstats.com for more information.
The Port of Oakland oversees Oakland International Airport, the Oakland seaport and 20 miles of waterfront, from the airport to Jack London Square in downtown Oakland. OAK is the second largest San Francisco Bay Area airport and fourth largest airport in California, offering over 150 daily flights. The Port of Oakland was established in 1927 and is an independent department of the City of Oakland. Visit our website at oaklandairport.com.

Parent involvement
I love Bridges!! At first I was apprehensive to send my 3 yo Daughter to a school located in a commercial strip mall-like setting but, after meeting the teachers and staff and other parents - i couldn't be happier. They're learning to walk outside (they have no playground and have to walk 1 1/2 blocks to the nearest) and cross the street - as all city kids should learn to do. The teachers and assistant's are very attentive - small classes; and instruction is curtailed to each child's learning level. The school is also very diverse - which was important for me.
I am a parent of a PK3 Penguin from last year 2012-13. My son LOVED going to Bridges and thrived. It is a small school with a tremendous staff of caring, smart, knowledgeable staff. As the youngest in his PK3 class he was hesitant. It was his first experience in school outside his small daycare setting. The focus in the classroom was on learning and fun and love and support. He got a lot of all four. In the classroom there was a teacher and an aide for a class of about 16 (plus ancillary support people). The teacher had great credentials and experience and the aide came with 20+ years in DCPS. They were both professional, caring and skilled at managing and teaching all things toddler. The classroom was super organized with lots of things to experience...and then they brought in more:butterflies, science Friday, art projects, number fun, engaging reading. They went on extensive Field trips throughout DC and played outside everyday. The focus is inclusion and there were kids with challenges in the class, who all the other children accepted and supported with grace. I could not have asked for a better space for my child to feel supported in his learning.
I always had the though, to have my daughters in a charter school because of so many good comments I heard about this school. My daughter turned 3 years when she started at Bridges and she still in it, now in 2013 she s in kindergartner, I love the fact that she s is very smart and learns everything so fast. She loves the school and she is very advance in her education than where she s supposed to be of her age. Everyday she learns something new and she gets 4 smiley faces. I'm so glad and happy that Bridges will extend the grades until grade 5. Until than I can have my oldest daughter while her young sister start just like she did one day. Thanks Bridges for all the hard and good work you are giving to our children's, Thanks for your excellent education.
Our non-special needs son is in his second PS/PK year at Bridges and has really thrived. As another parent says, because all students are evaluated often, we get thorough reports from teachers. What's more, thanks to this, small class sizes and an astute teacher, our son has been given assignments tailor-made for his skill level. Our son loves Bridges and his teachers. The Web site could be better for sure, but otherwise, it's been a great experience.
Our child is currently in PS3. We chose Bridges over two other "top" DC Charter schools and we have been thrilled with our choice. It's a great school. Our child (not special needs) has thrived there. Because they are constantly evaluating all the students progress, not just special needs students, I feel like we get really high quality reports from the teachers about how our child is progressing (already reading at 3!?) The teachers are amazing and the focus on little learners is wonderful. While the facility is not as nice as some other schools we felt like Bridges excellence in early childhood education was well worth the trade off. And of course the fact that they are expanding and moving more over to Sharpe is a bonus. Also, I love the diversity--kids with special needs, kids from lots of other countries, kids with two moms, black, white, adopted, latino, asian etc. etc. It's pretty amazing. Just this morning my child was urging my wife to hurry up, because she wanted to get to school! She loves it and so do we. They could do a better job marketing (via a better website or otherwise). I joke with my wife that it is the best little charter school you've never heard of.
Our son has thrived at this school. The teachers and staff are excellent, and it is a warm and intimate community of families. They have a wonderful inclusion model, and my typically developing child has been both nurtured and challenged, and has learned so much and grown tremendously in his pre-school year. We love it!
My daughter has been attending this school for the last two years and I love it and she loves it as well.. She enjoys all the learning activities and how the teachers interact with the students and we work together to make the learning process a success. My daughter loves going to school to learn and to also learn with her classmates as well. I'm so excited and I love to hear what she is learning each day when she comes home and tells me what she has done and to see her work too. We look forward to the next school year when she attends Kindergarten and beyond. I want to thank the school principal Ms. Olivia, all teachers and staff for all your hard-work and support for teaching our children here at Bridges PCS you make our kids learning experience a success. Love you all.
Our son started last year at Bridges and we have been really pleased with the learning environment and the quality of teaching.
Our girl has been with Bridges 2 years now and we love the school! All our concerns have been timely and extensively addressed. Our daughter has bloomed in this school. They assess the kids at the beginning of the school year, and work with them based on that evaluation. As a result of our 2 years with Bridges our daughter has achieved milestones of a 6 years/old, and she is in Pre-K. We highly recommend the school!
My two daughters, one typically developing, one with special needs, both thrived at Bridges for preschool. They adored their teachers and adored school. The program offered great support in many ways, nurturing the whole child and really our whole family. When they were ready for kindergarten, I was heartbroken that Bridges wasn't yet ready for expanding to an elementary school. They went off to a DCPS and did well -- I remember the teacher remarking the first day that they were both so clearly prepared for kindergarten! When the public school system wasn't serving my daughter with special needs as well as I thought, I decided to leaver her back a year so I could send her back to Bridges (since by then they had added an elementary school). It has been great for her, and I can't say enough about how dedicated and organized the teachers are and how effectively the whole system of support they have in place works-- not just for special needs kids.
Our daughter is wrapping up her first year at Bridges in PreK3 and we are extremely pleased. The school has a warm and welcoming environment and the inclusion model is extremely well-implemented and benefits all children. Our typically developing child has greatly enjoyed the school's focus on literacy development and the individualized attention she receives. The staff are excellent and we are pleased that the school is expanding so that our daughter can stay for elementary school. We have no doubt that the Bridges leadership and staff will continue to be as thoughtful and careful in providing an excellent K-5 education as they have been in providing an excellent preschool education.
Our son is about to finish up his first year at Bridges and we all couldn't be happier with this school. Everyone is so nice! It's nuts, really- walking in everyday is a pleasure, the staff is really amazing and students as well. We have nothing bad to say, a great place for our son to be thriving in.
We've only been at Bridges for a couple of months, since we transfered mid year, but we couldn't be happier with the school! They have been incredibly welcoming. They foster a sense of acceptance among the students, so that all of our son's classmates welcome and accept him, despite differences. This is good for everyone involved.
This school was rated the Best Preschool in DC. The level of learning is unbelievable for children so young, and they are having fun while doing it! The school is in a beautiful building, in a safe part of town, with a loving and caring staff. Each teacher is highly qualified, and the support staff are terrific as well. My children have learned so much academically and socially, and were beyond ready for Kindergarten. The school provides multiple events each quarter for parents, families, and even weekend play groups for the kids. I would highly recommend this school to anyone. The inclusion program is the best special education program I have seen in this city.

The Money Tree
Jason J Remillard
Andrea Cohen
Science Fiction and Fantasy
Age rating:
17 and older
Crippled by poverty, a wildly-inventive and good-hearted young man assumes his troubles are over when a money tree magically appears in the middle of his room. Little does he know his real troubles are just beginning - for this "free" money does not come without a cost.
Full synopsis
Follow this project
In a world where money seems to be everywhere and everything, Joe Gold is the one type of person nobody wants to be – a poor one. This reality never used to be an issue for him, as he utilized a combination of intelligence and hard work to transcend his lack of privilege, attending a great university on scholarship, graduating at the top of his class and leaving campus with a gorgeous girlfriend, a solid group of buddies and an idea for a product that could change the lives of disadvantaged people around the world.
Four months later, however, with the invention still not complete and Joe down to his last few dollars, money finally becomes issue #1 in his life – especially after his girlfriend, fed up with his financial shortcomings, leaves him for a much wealthier former classmate. Joe's college pals – rich in their own right and in love with the notion of flaunting it – try to help him out by offering inside information on a can't-miss investment opportunity, one with a $5,000 buy-in fee that Joe obviously can't even come close to affording. Thanks, guys. Sweet tip. Desperate to figure out a way to finish his invention (not to mention pay his rent, eat, etc.), Joe takes a job as a production assistant at CRP, a popular home shopping network whose wanted ad seems to purposefully, almost magically, float down to him one afternoon in Central Park. With its focus on product sales and development, CRP seems like the perfect fit for someone like Joe…until he actually starts working there and realizes that being a production assistant amounts to performing menial, and often embarrassing, tasks for a staggeringly minimal wage, one that will leave him with no extra cash to use on his invention.
Losing hope fast, and feeling limited by money unlike ever before, Joe goes for broke one day, begging for advice when he serendipitously runs into the famous inventor/salesman Gary LeBleu at the CRP studio. Gary, whose Kitchen Magician gadget is the hottest item on TV, initially seems intrigued by the prospect of exchanging ideas with a hungry, young inventor. However, his mood soon sours as it becomes clear that Joe's focus is more on money than on "talking shop." Undaunted, Gary tries to convince Joe that his situation is perhaps not as undesirable as he thinks. After all, money can do strange things to a man. Change who he is and what he values. Distract him from his dreams. Joe vehemently disagrees, maintaining that a little extra green is all he needs in his life. With a wink and a warning, Gary obliges Joe's request, pulling an old penny out of Joe's ear and handing it to him – a gesture Joe finds so insulting that, once back in his apartment, he tosses the penny with such force that it accidentally fractures his invention. Defeated once and for all, Joe collapses onto his bed, never noticing that the penny has found its way into a crack in his floorboards.
The next morning, Joe is astonished to find a small green branch with three $1 bills on it growing in the middle of his room. As if that's not enough to chase away his doldrums, he also meets Rose Grant, the funny, grounded caretaker of CRP's plants, with whom he forms an immediate bond that quickly blossoms into a loving relationship. Not surprisingly, Joe quickly realizes that there is a side benefit to having met Rose, as he is secretly able to glean information from her that he then uses to care for his money tree, which grows larger by the day. Stable and secure at last, Joe finally has the means necessary to complete his dream machine. Yet, just as he is about to use his newfound fortune to do so, he is forced to reveal the tree's presence to his suspicious friends, who convince him that, while his dream is a noble one, he needs to seize the day and enjoy the tree as much as possible because, unlike the idea for his invention, this magical plant could vanish before they know it. The argument is very persuasive.
Thus, Joe embarks on a journey of excess and enjoyment that almost instantly thrusts his invention into the rearview mirror. And how could it not? For the first time in his life, he is able to buy and do whatever he wants whenever he wants. It's like a dream come true. Eventually, however, that dream starts to spiral into a nightmare, overtaking Joe's existence and threatening to cost him everything of real value in his life.

Vanderbilt Coach Bobby Johnson Retires
By Puppet Master ,
The relationship between long-suffering Commodore fans and respected head coach Bobby Johnson came to an end on the afternoon of July 14, 2010.
Johnson advised Vanderbilt officials he will retire effective at the end of this month.
The record book states Vanderbilt has won 29 and lost 66 during the past eight seasons with Coach Johnson at the helm.
How, then, did Johnson become such a revered figure among Commodore fans and opponents, as well as a person of nationwide stature among his peers?
Perhaps the answers are there, if one looks hard enough.
The following is a review of the life and times of recently retired coach Bobby Johnson of Vanderbilt.
Coach Johnson was somewhat irritated when information concerning his retirement leaked out to some of his players before he was given the opportunity to personally address them.
When the Commodore headman met with the media on Wednesday he identified a simple and obvious reason for leaving at this time.
"Football is life, but life is not football."
Bobby Johnson related his personal belief of what it takes to be a successful coach to a 100 percent commitment. He added that he did not feel that intensity was in him now.
"I decided to retire, not resign," said Johnson. "It was a decision (which) my wife Catherine and I (see picture) struggled, it is about what we want to do with our lives."
Johnson advised the Vanderbilt officials of his decision and assistant coach Robbie Caldwell was named interim coach.
Whether Caldwell continues to hold the position in the future is apparently an open question, perhaps to be settled by the performance of the Commodores on the field.
Vice Chancellor David Williams said he tried to "talk Bobby out of it but, it is a personal decision and we respect his decision."
The effect of a coach on the hopes and dreams of young people is seen in how they react to adversity.
For the men who played for Bobby Johnson, they have faced a trifecta of adversity during their time in Nashville.
First, a competitive season in a top conference. Second, the challenge to stay academically eligible at the outstanding temple of higher learning in the state of Tennessee.
Third, they must now deal with the prospect of playing this season without their leader standing on the sidelines.
The current Commodore players have already proved to be up for the first two obstacles, we shall see if they have learned how to perform in the absence of Bobby Johnson in 2010.
Bobby Johnson is not someone who just happened to be in the news because of his retirement. Coach Johnson has been around college football for 40 years.
His path has intersected with longtime college fans over the decades, perhaps without many realizing it.
Bobby Johnson was a defensive back at Clemson in the early 1970s. He was in school the final year of the legendary coach Frank Howard but played his football for former Alabama defensive back Hootie Ingram.
Ingram was quite a teacher of playing the corner, having intercepted 11 passes in the 1953 season. He passed along that knowledge to Johnson, who led Clemson in interceptions during the 1971 and '72 seasons.
A visionary leader, Ingram created the actual "Tiger Paw" still used by Clemson, and went on to become athletic director at Florida State and Alabama.
After his playing days in Death Valley, Johnson became a longtime assistant coach at Furman University. He spent many seasons under the watchful eye of headman Dick Sheridan, who later left for N.C. State.
When Johnson became head coach at Furman, he took the Paladins to the national championship game in 2001, losing to Montana 13-6.
Along the way, in '01, Furman defeated arch-rival and close friend Paul Johnson's powerful Georgia Southern Eagles in the semifinals.
Following that season, both Johnsons left for "major college" positions, Paul at The Naval Academy and Bobby at Vanderbilt.
Interestingly enough, the Johnsons met for what appears to be the final time just last year in Nashville. Paul, by now the top man at Ga. Tech and headed for the ACC Championship, overwhelmed Bobby's courageous Commodores by the final count of 56-31.
The more things change.
For the 2010 season in Nashville, the departure of Bobby Johnson answers some questions while opening the door to several decisions which must be addressed by officials of Vanderbilt University.
Bobby Johnson was respected by his peers. He brought a winning season to Vandy in 2008 which resulted in a Bowl victory over Boston College. This may not appear unusual until one realizes the Commodores had only one other winning season in the past 30 years.
But, Johnson was facing a perception problem among SEC followers going into 2010. The perception that his teams were always prepared, tough, smart, and usually lost.
While 29 wins against 66 losses is not Rockne-like but, he did create a competitive sense of accomplishment in the Music City.
Can Robbie Caldwell keep the ball rolling? The rest will be a matter of how well the Commodores remember the lessons they have been taught.
The early analysis is Vanderbilt will shock the world if they win more than four games.
Somehow, that doesn't seem to be an adequate testimony to the accomplishments of Bobby Johnson.
