Customer Testimonial
You know that I am a true Dr. Harvey fan and have been for many years, but I wanted to take a moment to tell you that we just love Power Patties. I am having so much fun with these treats. I give them to both of my pugs in the morning and I enjoy the ritual as much as they do! I take out the bag and they go crazy and wag and smile until they each get two treats. They are a bit stinky, but the kids don't seem to mind. In fact, they have never acted like this with any other treat. Home run in our house Dr. Harvey. I had to tell you how much fun we are having with our new favorite treat. I know they are very healthy too and won't make them gain weight and that is a big issue for some dogs. As always, thank you for all that you do.

What is Tripe?
Tripe is the highly palatable and easily digested stomach lining and stomach contents of cattle containing partially digested grasses and grains, digestive enzymes, gastric juices, amino acids, essential fatty acids (omega 3 and 6) and an exceptional balance of calcium to phosphorus. Known by top breeders as the best all-natural dog and cat food available. Tripe is considered by many experts to be one of the most complete foods for carnivores.

Duluth: The History. The Romance. The B&Bs.
At one point in the 20th century, Duluth was home to more millionaires per capita than any other city in the United States. Really. As Minnesota's mining, timber, railroad and shipping industries began fueling the country, the men and women leading them made Duluth their home. And they built wonderful homes.By: Terry Mattson, for the Duluth Budgeteer News

Greater fringed-gentian is a beautiful, autumn-flowering plant, 8-24 in. tall, often branched above. Showy, blue flowers have four spreading petals that are fringed at the end and part way down the sides. A single, blue, fringed flower, opening in the sun and closing at night, is at the end of each erect stem of a branching plant. The petals are twisted together when the flower is closed.
One of the most beautiful of the gentians, with its delicately fringed petals and striking blue color, it is becoming rare and must not be picked. It is a biennial, and along with the other gentians, is among the last wildflowers to bloom in the late summer and fall. The Smaller Fringed Gentian (G. virgata) is similar but has narrow leaves, a shorter fringe, and is only 6-18 inches (15-45 cm) high. It occurs in midwestern, boggy prairies and limy areas. Both the common and generic names of this group come from that of King Gentius of Illyria, who, according to the Ancient Roman naturalist Pliny, discovered the medicinal qualities of the roots for use as an emetic, cathartic, and tonic.

DORIE TURNER, Associated Press
ATLANTA — Georgia, long considered a national leader in providing prekindergarten education, is slipping behind other states after student enrollment and inflation outpaced state spending for the last decade, a study has found.
The study released Tuesday by the National Institute for Early Education Research at Rutgers University shows that Georgia has plummeted to 20th place in state money spent per child at $4,206 per student, compared to the leader, New Jersey, with $11,578 per child. The state ranked ninth in 2003, a number determined when per-student funding is adjusted for inflation.
And Georgia now ranks fourth in the percentage of 4-year-olds in its lottery-funded pre-k program after hovering among the top three states since the annual study started coming out in 2003.
"You can have great standards on paper, but if you cut spending per child 10 years running, that has to hurt quality," said Steve Barnett, co-director of the institute. "It's really risking its national leadership by this cut after cut after cut."
The numbers in the study — based on 2009-2010 data — do not reflect reductions made to the pre-k program for this fall, which include cutting 20 days from the school year to help reduce spending on programs funded by the Georgia Lottery. The original plan was to make it a half-day program, but Gov. Nathan Deal changed directions after an outcry from parents, teachers and schools.
The move allowed the state to cut $54 million from the cash-strapped program while adding 2,000 slots. Deal has said the cuts were necessary to help keep lottery-funded programs like pre-k and the HOPE scholarship from going broke.
"The governor has taken courageous steps to make sure we have this program going forward," said Deal's spokesman, Brian Robinson.
Georgia's program, which opened in 1993, is funded solely with lottery money. It remains the only state whose policy is to offer free full-day prekindergarten for any 4-year-old, although that access is limited now to a set number of slots because of financial constraints.
This year, Georgia serves 83,000 students, or a little more than half of the state's 4-year-olds. At least 10,000 children are on a waiting list for the program.
Advocates say they want to see a more dependable stream of revenue for the program.
"We have to make pre-k a standard part of educating children. To do that we can't leave it to chance by strictly funding it with the lottery," said Pat Willis, executive director of Voices for Georgia's Children.

New Airline Alert: Asia Atlantic Airlines
If you've made it through all of the alliteration in that title, we are excited to bring the news of a new airline based in Thailand. The fresh-faced carrier is a mixture of Thai and Japanese travel companies and will bring a 'New Dynamic Force' in chartered tour groups between the two countries.
Capitalizing on the country's leisure market, the airline will be based in Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport and flying their two Boeing 767s from the Thai capital to Tokyo Narita and Osaka. Each of the planes will be equipped with both the cushy seats of business class and the cheaper seats of economy.

Time to Book Your Ticket and Pick a Seat on United's First 787 Flights
There�s already a few Boeing 787 Dreamliners doing their thing high in the sky around the globe, but unfortunately still with no carriers from the nifty fifty...yet. That�s about to change sooner rather than later as United prepares for the arrival of their very first 787. Unfortunately the new airplane scent isn�t exactly going to be around for your summer vacation, but it does look like it won�t be too much longer.
They�re pretty excited over the arrival of the new airplane, as UA has already loaded in the seat map and started selling tickets for the very first 787 flights. If all goes according to plan�and that�s a big if�the factory fresh 787s will start flying between Denver and Tokyo-Narita beginning on March 31, 2013. We looked at some sample dates to get on one of the first flights, and you�re looking at around $1,750 or so�in coach�for about a week of Tokyo travel.

Tokyo's Going to Build Another Airport Terminal. Hey, Why Not?
This hasn�t really caught on here at home, but overseas it seems that airports are seriously considering building airport terminals fully dedicated to budget and low-cost carriers. We already heard about the plan to do so over in Singapore, and, now it sounds like Tokyo-Narita is the latest to jump on the budget terminal bandwagon.
Airport officials see the writing on the wall, as new cheap flights are scheduled to do their thing to and from the metropolis thanks to carriers like Jetstar Japan and AirAsia Japan. All the bulldozers and construction crews will start doing their thing sooner than later at NRT as the plan Is to get things up and running by around 2015 or so.

2012 is Totally Japan's Year...for Aviation
2011 wasn't a banner year for Japan, not to mention for any industry in the country. We saw the ripple effects of natural disasters throughout the aviation world with the Japanese earthquake and resulting tsunami topping the list. What can be more indicative of Japanese pride, but to quickly rebuild stronger and better? Fortunately for us, airlines are towards the top of the progress.
· Peachy Keen
Last year we talked about the introduction of ANA's budget carrier based out of Osaka, Peach. With only 3 destinations, the airline will draw business passengers, eventually moving into the leisure market. Flights are taking off in March and tickets are already to purchase.
Happy Peach Fares have no baggage allowance or advanced seat selection but are quite affordable at around $175 return to Sapporo. If you need the sweet little perks, cough up about $75 more. Happy Peach Plus fares allow you to pick where you park yourself on the plane and some space in the belly for your luggage. With a bright purple livery and cabin, Peach is on our short list!

Can't Get a Ride? Other Ways to Reach Six International Airports
Just because Thanksgiving has passed doesn't mean that travel will dwindle much; Christmas and other holidays are now less than one month away, and of course travel to wherever you're heading for them will start sooner. If you're heading home or on vacation, and you can't convince someone to come pick you up from the airport, we might be able to help.
Throughout December, we'll be adding more guides on how to reach airports around the world via both public and private transportation, but for now, here are six guides we've already got for you:

· London-Gatwick (just the Express train featured)

JAL: 'We're Getting 787s Too, You Know'
Our shot of a JAL 787 being built at Boeing's HQ. Notice the lack of engines
It feels like just yesterday we were freaking out over the launch of the very first Boeing 787 Dreamliner, by Japanese airline ANA. Well, their rival JAL wants everyone to know that they've got some Dreamliners coming as well, and they're taking them overseas to the US of A, and soon.
Like April 22, 2012 soon. If you've been dying to try the new plane and have been waiting for a oneworld airline to fly it, or just to experience it in the spring, then JAL has some airfares that may work for you. It's not a "sale" so much since the prices aren't cheap: from $1,500 roundtrip in economy between Boston and Tokyo-Narita or $6,500 in business class. Buy it before January 31, 2012 for travel between April 22 and September 30, 2012. We're thinking it would make an awesome holiday gift...!
Here's all the details to make it happen.

Inside the United Business Class Lounge at Tokyo-Narita Airport
Everybody's talking Tokyo, and with good reason. The country is psyched to begin restarting tourism, autumn over there is magical, and the ANA 787 Dreamliner just completed her maiden revenue flight out of the city. So when you do take that dive and head to Japan, you'll likely spend some time in Narita International Airport. If you're flying United and holding a Business Class, ticket or Star Alliance status, then you'll want to know about the United Business Lounge.
We recently spent some time here after bumping ourselves up to Biz, and gave the sizeable lounge a good once-over:

Inside a Day Room at Tokyo's Narita International Airport
You've had a long flight, or maybe you're about to have a long flight, or maybehorror of horrorsboth. You've got some sizeable layover time at Tokyo-Narita Airport and you're desperate to have a shower, take a nap or work in peace and comfortor all three things. If you're flying economy you don't have the option to crash in a lounge, but luckily Narita is a large (and awesome) enough airport to offer Shower rooms and Day Rooms, and we just tried them out!
Our story involved a long flight to NRT from Bangkok, an 8-hour layover and another long flight back to the States in economy. Typically we'd enjoy the airport like an amusement park, but we were under the weather and sleepy. Although the day rooms may be reserved online up to one month in advance, we just walked in and plonked down our credit card for five hours in a single room.

Enduring United Economy Class from Tokyo Direct to Seattle
Last week we found ourselves way in the back of a United 777 flying direct from Tokyo-Narita to Seattle-Tacoma in economy class. Yes, believe it. Thankfully we scored an aisle seat, but that was about the only positive. Here's a little review of our experience:
What we liked:
· Seatback TVs! Holy crap, we weren't expecting that considering the United 777 on the way over (from SFO to NRT) didn't have them.
· Two square meals were served. Granted, the turbulence during the first one didn't allow for us to get up and grab our camera from the overhead bin, but it wasn't too bad. Chicken over rice.
· The flight left and arrived on time, so there's that.

The Positives and Negatives of United 747 Business Class Between Tokyo and Bangkok
Following a harrowing last-minute upgrade and 11.5 hours in so-so Biz Class from SFO to NRT, we were finally ready to experience the updated seats and in-flight entertainment on United's 747 from Tokyo-Narita to Bangkok-Suvarnabhumi.
That may sound like a reasonably short flight, but nu uhthat's another 6.5 hours of flying, which makes it totally worthwhile to have a nice seat and a nice TV and a nice meal for this last leg of a very long, very tiring journey.
We've already dug into the meals here, so now let's discuss the finer points of the seat and service in Biz Class on this 747:

United's Business Class Meals Between Tokyo and Bangkok
No warm nuts. No warm nuts! How dare an airline take away the pleasure of a little warm nuts before a long flight? Answer: when it's United between Tokyo-Narita and Bangkok Suvarnabhumi.
Following a $600+ upgrade to Business Class, an 11.5-hour flight from SFO to NRT and some filet mignon, we were excited for a little more local fare on the 6 hour and 30 minute flight. And we got it. Kinda. If Trader Vic's-recipe dishes can be considered thusly.

The Positives and Negatives of United 777 Business Class Between SFO and Tokyo
United's 777 from San Francisco to Tokyo-Narita in Business Class was a fly-by-night thing. Literally. It was a flight on which we upgraded at the last minute, boarded at the last minute, and everyone onboard slept for the majority of the 11-hour, 15-minute flight.
Since we've already detailed the in-flight meals, we'll keep our impressions of the seats and service quick and dirty:

Oscar Tabarez, Uruguay coach
People who believe in destiny might explain it otherwise. But I don't have an explanation for what happened today. It really was a hard match, we didn't play well but we survived very difficult circumstances. We conceded a goal at the end of the first half and we had a penalty against us in the last second. Maybe we didn't play that well but we had the guts to do it.
Milovan Rajevac, Ghana coach
All I can say is this is football. It was a very difficult game for us because in the previous game [against USA] we also played for 120 minutes and in the end we had the historic opportunity to reach the semi-final and we had the penalty. We have to be proud of what we have achieved. This is sport and justice. Today Uruguay were the lucky ones.
Sebastian Abreu, Uruguay forward and scorer of the winning penalty
It's not just about courage to take a penalty like that. It's a way of scoring a penalty. It won't count as two goals if you take it conventionally. There are different ways to score from the spot and this is this one I like. We can't say we had winners' luck because that would imply that we are playing down the work we have done since 2006. This is a team that has gone through a lot and that has been the key to a result in the World Cup.
Diego Forlan, Uruguay forward and Budweiser Man of the Match
We suffered so much but we are among the best four in the world. My penalty kick? I thought about changing the way of kicking it, but I shot normally. It was necessary to score and I just thought about that [scoring].

Adios, Tuck Rule.
1) The NFL seems to be hoping the calendar changes make this like MLB's winter meetings. That didn't happen this week, but could in time ...
2) With the draft thing/changes to financial awards, clear the NFL knows Pro Bowl doesn't work as a game. They're turning it into a TV show.
3) The concussion litigation is hovering over everything. The RB rule is most visible, but whatever the NFL does, that element is in mind.
It's just not that complicated. Thousands of ex-players suing NFL for concussion-related problems. NFL puts in a head-hit rule. Surprising?
Wow so they really passed that rule...last time I checked football was a contact sport. Calling bank now to set up my lowering the boom fund
My sources indicate Bears also expected to sign Sedrick Ellis, Scott Shanle, Adrian Arrington, Curtis Keaton, Colby Bockwoldt & Aaron Brooks
Goodell said one idea for the Pro Bowl was to have players participating in a draft. Example was Peyton Manning pick a team and Eli another.
NFL officiating director Dean Blandino says that any penalty for improper helmet use will not be imposed from the line of scrimmage.
"We're talking about keeping the head up," Jeff Fisher explains.Runners can protect themselves, just not deliver blow with top of helmet.
After hearing the rule explained, it sounds like it will not be as extreme or severe as many initially believed.
Catching up on rule changes ... Should be emphasized that the new H&S measures (i.e. RB rule) have the concussion litigation as a backdrop.
Coaches and players can complain, but the owners are the ones voting, and they're under a tremendous amount of legal liability now.
Out eating and overhearing two different conversations. Both complaining about this new helmet rule change.... Fans hate it! #nfliscrazy
One last thing whet the hell is a defenseless NFL defensive player those guys stay ready, if your on the field your ready.
Crown of helmet hit rule did pass, 31-1. Only the Bengals voted against it. Get used to it, running backs.
As Raiders owner Mark Davis promised, the tuck rule was one vote he was not about to abstain on. But as Jeff Fisher joked, not retroactive!

Mike Brown voted against helmet rule because it's hard to officiate | ProFootballTalk
"It's a very controversial change," Brown told reporters on Tuesday, via the Cincinnati Enquirer. "I view it as difficult if not impossible play to call. We had a lot of this with the secondary plays last year. I didn't think those calls were always right. These plays happen in a flash. They're just a reaction to people: Did he hit him with his shoulder pad? Did he hit him with his helmet? Was it intended? That's difficult to sort out. I'm not confident we should add another discretionary call. We're asking an awful lot of our referees to make those kind of calls."

pdo and sql injection
I want to ask something simple.At a later project,I used pdo and prepared statements against sql injections and someone told me that it is not proper to use pdo,he did not say why and I did not ask why.Is there a reason not to use pdo lately,because I do not know something like that,I have some time to write php code.
Jun 12, 2012, 08:00 #2
As far as I know, PDO is the best option PHP provides us.

if you bind your parameter in your PDO statements then you will gaurd against SQL Injection attacks.
wrong:Code:$sql = " SELECT name FROM names WHERE name LIKE '%$name%';"; $stmt = $Db->prepare($sql); $stmt->execute();
Code:$sql = " SELECT name FROM names WHERE name LIKE '%" .? . "%';"; $stmt = $Db->prepare($sql); $stmt->bindParam(1, $name); $stmt->execute();

The only remotely valid reason I ever heard was that the target server did not support PDO.
But that was years ago, and I did not buy that reason even then.
There were those that preferred the mysqli extension when PHP5 first came out and for some time the jury was out, but my last understanding was that PDO was seen as the best way to proceed.
EDIT: PDO with prepared statements, to be more precise, as has been said above.

What #ServerStorm said. Too many people have this misunderstanding that "PDO" is the solution – it is not. Any variable binding using PDO, MySQLi, etc will work. Sending the dynamic data separate from the query is what prevents SQL injection – not PDO!!!
The only code I hate more than my own is everyone else's.
Jun 25, 2012, 21:08 #7
Actually, I have a related question. First, I use a home rolled CQRS/EventSourcing system, rather than a traditional mapping style ORM, or data access abstraction layer. So here's the question, which I ask based on assumptions I've made, not really having used PDO...
Doesn't PDO's (or mysqli_bind for that matter) just call sprintf($sql, $params) underneath? If so, why not just do that? If not, what does PDO's bindParam method actually do?
Jun 25, 2012, 21:16 #8
No, its not sprintf. Prepared Statements is a function of the database itself. PDO sends the SQL statement with no data to the server. The DB parses the SQL statements, sends back an identifier. PDO then sends data to the server using the indentifier to link that data to the SQL statement. The SQL and the data never mix.
Only for database servers that do not support Prepared Statements does PDO emulate them.
Jun 25, 2012, 21:24 #9
Ok gotcha. I always wondered about that. Any particular reason not to keep using sprintf though?
Jun 25, 2012, 21:34 #10
This may be useful: http://php.net/manual/en/pdo.prepared-statements.php
Jun 25, 2012, 21:40 #11
Of course, I know what a storedproc is. I've been using them since the mid 90's with MsSQL server. But those are designed and compiled server side. Without having used PDO, I wasn't sure if there was any communication with the server prior to setting param values, or if it was all done client side. I'd still like to know if there are any real drawbacks to using sprintf. Nothing user-supplied is ever used in a query, and my data access needs are very light (storing and fecthing serialized events, and a simple read model) so I really don't want to mess with more abstraction than I really need.
Jun 25, 2012, 23:14 #12
You wanted to know the advantages of prepared vs sprintf... that link gives you the benefits as bullet points.
Jun 25, 2012, 23:32 #13
Oh snap! That'll teach me to skim something at 1:40 in the morning. Thanks, that answerd my query perfectly.

The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance isn't just a car show: like the Concorso d'Eleganza ...
2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GTS, an AW Flash Drive Car Review
What is it?
The 2012 Shelby GTS is an "entry-level" performance and appearance upgrade package for both V6- and V8-powered Ford Mustangs. We got a chance to drive the 305-hp, 3.7-liter V6 model right before Shelby packed it up and sent it off to New York for its world premiere.
The $9,995 GTS package includes upgraded springs, shocks and tuned stabilizer bars, Shelby/Baer upgraded front and rear brakes, a Shelby/Borla sport exhaust system, a unique "deep draw" hood, a black billet grille with "running pony" emblem, lower front fascia, racing stripes, assorted badges and a Shelby CSM serialized build plaque.
What is it like to drive?
We got to drive a silver V6 automatic coupe with black stripes and optional 18-inch wheels. The burly hood and lower fascia with gaping air intake impart the intended muscular look to distance it from the typical low-roller V6 Mustang. The husky grumble of the Borla exhaust further enhances the muscle-car image, but it does hit a sour note when an aggravating "boom" occurs while cruising at 1,500 rpm to 1,800 rpm.
We also were not too keen on the sluggish response of the stock automatic transmission unless you have the throttle pinned to the floor. Manually shifting or engaging the "hill descent" mode solves this problem.
The suspension mods are a noticeable improvement over the stock setup. The ride is firmer than stock, eliminating much of the wallowing and body lean. It's not as stiff as the GT350, but it's a nice balance between comfort and handling. Despite some understeer, the GTS feels much more responsive and nimble when cornering than the stock Mustang.
Do I want it?
If you're a Shelby fan looking for an affordable but official Shelby entered in the company's registry, this is your admission ticket. Rising gasoline prices make the V6 Shelby's 31-mpg highway rating appealing to anyone looking for American muscle-car looks, reasonable performance and decent fuel economy.
If gasoline prices drop or you want more speed, Shelby has a ProCharger supercharger available that will get 475 hp from the V6.

A long, long time ago, in a place far, far away (well, OK, it was Walt Disney World), my husband and I were strolling idly through the resort, with nothing to do but see the sights and enjoy ourselves.
We were on our honeymoon. Our only responsibilities were to each other and ourselves. It was relaxing and wonderful and peaceful.
As we walked hand-in-hand through the Florida foliage, a pack of children ran toward us down a resort path, giggling madly, garbed for a day at the parks (from which they'd obviously just returned). Behind them, walking slowly, were a weary-but-not-unhappy-looking couple whom I presumed were their parents.
Watching the thundering herd pass us, the father shook his head ... and called to the children:
"How can you have so much energy when I'm so tired?"
We looked at each other and laughed, each then, perhaps, seeing our future in the tired parents. To this day, eight years later, there are still moments when we look at our kids, then each other, and repeat those words.
This morning was one of them.
After a brutal night that involved a restless 5-year-old and a potty-training 2-year-old (who presented himself at our bedroom door and announced, "Stinky!"), Clan Keppeler staggered forth reluctantly after the second or third repetition of the snooze alarm.
At least, the adults staggered. The kids bounced. James and Sam hit the bottom of the stairs and immediately began a rousing game of "chase each other around the living room."
I paused in my quest for coffee, looked at my husband, and we both recited, "How can you have so much energy ... "
Where do they get it? I don't know. We suspect they sap it directly from us, but I'm not sure how that works.
If I remember my (very rusty) high school physics correctly, the law of conservation of energy says that the total amount of energy in an isolated system (our household?) remains constant over time ... that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but only transformed from one state to another.
From adults to kids perhaps? Is that how it works? Are they born with the ability? Or is one simply a result of the other?
Or am I just typing while sleep-deprived?
The boys go to bed earlier than we do, obviously, but that's not enough to account for this. With their almost-constant state of motion, I don't doubt they're in much better shape ... but little legs are still much shorter and should still wear out first ... right?
It seems to work with any adult, actually. During a recent trip to an outdoor attraction, the boys played the "run-around-in-circles-and-giggle-until-you-fall-down" game while my parents watched in bemusement. I asked them if they ever felt that way around my brother and me.
They just laughed.
I'm glad my kids are energetic. I'm glad they're active. I think about my elder son's long-ago heart surgery, and I thank God for this day.
Just keep the coffee coming.

Chairman DeFazio, Ranking Member Duncan, and Members of the Subcommittee, thank you for inviting me today to discuss the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA) safety oversight role in motorcoach operations. I am pleased to discuss with you FMCSA's programs that will achieve our goal of improving bus safety on our nation's highways.
Mr. Chairman, FMCSA was conceived out of the need to achieve stronger commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safety - it is our mandate. More than that, our Agency consists of dedicated professionals to whom safety is the highest priority. Toward that goal, FMCSA is working to reduce the loss of life on our nation's highways.
Mile for mile, motorcoaches are one of the safest forms of commercial passenger transportation. For the last 10 calendar years, there has been a yearly average of 22.7 occupant-related fatalities. Approximately 3,700 interstate motorcoach companies are registered in our database to operate over 34,000 motorcoaches in the United States and approximately 100,000 motorcoach drivers have Commercial Driver's Licenses (CDLs) with passenger endorsements. This figure does not include school bus drivers who have CDLs with passenger endorsements, the vast majority of whom are not subject to most of our safety regulations.
On Friday, March 2, we all observed with horror the scenes from the motorcoach crash in Atlanta, Georgia, in which seven people were killed. Five student passengers and the motorcoach driver and his wife lost their lives when the chartered motorcoach transporting a baseball team from Ohio's Blufton University to Florida plunged off an overpass onto an expressway below. Preliminary investigations seem to indicate that the motorcoach driver mistook a High Occupancy Vehicle exit ramp for a traffic lane, and did not stop at the top of the ramp.
The bus company involved in the crash, Executive Coach Luxury Travel Inc., has a satisfactory safety rating from a 2001 compliance review. More recently, 11 vehicle inspections and 5 driver inspections were performed during the 12 months prior to the crash, resulting in zero out-of-service violations. On February 23, 2007, just one week prior to the crash, the Public Utility Commission of Ohio inspected 5 buses at the company's terminal, including the one involved in the crash. No violations were found on the vehicle during the inspection. The driver involved in the crash relieved the previous driver from driving and boarded the bus at approximately 4:30 AM, only one hour prior to the crash. Preliminary investigation shows the driver involved was not in violation of the hours-of-service regulations. Please be assured that we will continue to work with the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) as it finalizes its investigation and issues its findings.
FMCSA is and has always been committed to the safe transportation of passengers on our Nation's highways. Passenger safety continues as one of the highest priorities within FMCSA and we continue to increase our focus on this area. The Agency has established a National Motorcoach Safety Program that emphasizes six areas: (1) increasing the number of motorcoach compliance reviews (CRs), which are investigations of a company's safety practices; (2) ensuring motorcoach companies have a higher priority within FMCSA's compliance review prioritization system, known as SafeStat; (3) establishing formal motorcoach inspection programs within all States; (4) improving the collection and analyses of safety data; (5) reducing motorcoach fires; and (6) expediting safety audits of new entrant passenger carriers. Addressing each of these areas is essential to improving passenger vehicle safety. In addition, I will discuss the following two major initiatives: (1) our national initiative to address unrated and high priority motorcoach operations; and (2) FMCSA's Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010 (CSA 2010) initiative.
Motorcoach Company Compliance Reviews
FMCSA is increasing the number of compliance reviews conducted on motorcoach companies. In FY 2005, FMCSA and our State partners conducted 457 motorcoach CRs, surpassing our established goal of 375 by 22 percent. Our goal for FY 2006 was to conduct 450 CRs and we conducted more than 600 CRs on motorcoach companies, an increase of more than one-third.
Augmenting these efforts is one of the two major new initiatives. Last month, FMCSA established the National Initiative to Address Unrated and High Priority Motorcoach Operations, a project to expand our Agency's contact with motorcoach operators who appear to run safe operations. We expect to visit approximately 1,600 companies as part of this initiative before the end of 2007.
Passenger Carrier Enhancements to the SafeStat System
The availability of motorcoach safety data is more limited than that of property carriers due to fewer driver and vehicle safety inspections and a fewer total number of CRs. However, we believe that bus companies deserve more careful program attention and dedicated enforcement resources because they transport people rather than cargo. As a result, FMCSA will apply more stringent safety standards for passenger carriers through a reform of our risk pointer systems. With this change, we will ensure that passenger carriers receive higher scrutiny through more frequent on-site reviews.
Motorcoach Inspections
While all States conduct motorcoach inspections, not every State has a formal motorcoach inspection program. Beginning in FY 2007, FMCSA requires State agencies that receive Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program (MCSAP) grant funds to include a bus inspection program in their Commercial Vehicle Safety Plans (CVSPs), which describe the State's inspection and enforcement activities for the coming year.
FMCSA has also initiated a series of motorcoach inspection and CR strike force activities to increase the attention and focus on passenger vehicle safety. The most recent inspection strike force was conducted from November 13 to 25, 2006, by FMCSA's Eastern division offices and our MCSAP State partners. The strike force spanned 14 States from Maine to Virginia and included participation by Federal and State personnel including over 22 law enforcement agencies. Thanks to the commitment of our Federal staff and our many State and local police agencies, more than 1,300 safety inspections were conducted on passenger vehicles and drivers.
The increased activities generated by the strike force resulted in more than 26,000 bus inspections during FY 2006, double the previous fiscal year. The additional data enables FMCSA to better identify poorly performing passenger carriers for a CR by increasing the amount of passenger carrier safety data entered into Federal and State databases. In addition, FMCSA has encouraged States to increase the number of CRs they perform on motorcoach operations.
Improved Safety Data
The use of safety data is critical to properly target our resources. In the past three years, there have been significant improvements in the timeliness and quantity of our motorcoach safety data. This is due in large part to the increase in motorcoach inspections resulting from inclusion of bus safety inspection programs in the State CVSPs and the increased emphasis on inspection and compliance review strike forces. As a part of the Agency's national initiative to address unrated and high priority motorcoach operations, safety investigators are confirming data through contacts and personal visits to bus carriers.
FMCSA is also conducting a Bus Crash Causation Study to determine the reasons for and the factors contributing to serious bus crashes. The data collection for this study will be completed this May and the final report is due in December 2007.
Motorcoach Fires
Another critical aspect of our safety program relates to the problem of motorcoach fires. It is vital that we gather and evaluate information on the causes, frequency, and severity of bus and motorcoach fires and analyze bus fire data to measure the effectiveness of bus fire prevention. FMCSA is also taking immediate action to address the collection and analysis of bus fire data. FMCSA recently issued a statement to FMCSA field offices and our MCSAP partners to re-emphasize our position that fires that occur in CMVs, including buses, while they are operated on our highways must be classified as CMV crashes.
New Entrant Passenger Carriers
Each year, approximately 900 new entrant passenger carriers register with FMCSA.
Research has shown that new entrant motor carriers have significantly more non-compliance issues and a higher crash rate than more established motor carriers. FMCSA has implemented a new entrant program policy placing greater priority on the safety of passenger carriers. New entrant passenger carriers are now subject to an on-site safety audit within 9 months of beginning operations instead of the statutorily required 18 months for other motor carriers. Where we have indicators of safety problems, Mr. Chairman, we go in to the company immediately. In addition we have published a proposed rule to strengthen new entrant program standards for all motor carriers including a provision for bus companies regarding verification and education about compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The public comment period for the proposed rule closed on February 20, 2007.
FMCSA has taken important steps in enforcing regulations that apply to curbside bus operators that provide fixed-route service among major cities in the northeast such as New York, NY, Boston, MA, Philadelphia, PA, and Washington, DC. In December 2003, FMCSA organized a task force to examine these companies. Some were providing for-hire fixed-route bus transportation without proper operating authority and/or adequate insurance. This marked the first time FMCSA had organized a task force to address a specific sector of the passenger carrier industry. In 2006, FMCSA identified 24 curbside bus companies that are domiciled in the Northeast corridor that operate approximately 200 motorcoaches. As of March 2007, eighteen of these curbside companies are assigned a satisfactory safety rating, three are assigned conditional ratings, two companies went out of business, and one is not rated. FMCSA plans to conduct a compliance review on the unrated company in the near future.
In October 2005, FMCSA organized a bus inspection strike force in the Northeast corridor that resulted in 403 inspections. Many of these inspections were conducted on curbside bus companies. In December 2005, FMCSA's Passenger Technical Advisory Group, a specialized group of field investigators, conducted a bus company CR strike force along the Northeast Corridor. The strike force conducted CRs on 14 bus companies in the States of Massachusetts, New York , Pennsylvania, Maryland, and in the District of Columbia. Eight of these companies were curbside carriers. Of the CRs conducted on these curbside carriers, six resulted in satisfactory safety ratings and three in enforcement actions, which can occur simultaneously with a satisfactory safety rating. The most common violations were related to drug and alcohol testing. FMCSA has found that some small bus companies do not comply with drug and alcohol testing regulations because this testing is sometimes regarded as unnecessary if the company owner knows the driver personally. During the CRs, our investigators documented the compliance status with ADA regulations for over-the-road buses. Documentation was forwarded to the Department of Justice for further action if necessary. FMCSA has found the use of multi-jurisdictional strike forces to be an effective tool in identifying and apprehending unsafe carriers.
Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010 (CSA 2010)
Since the Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act of 1999 created FMCSA as an independent agency within the Department of Transportation, the motor carrier population has increased steadily with an expected doubling of freight volumes by 2020. At the same time, FMCSA's programmatic responsibilities have increased, including implementation of Congressional mandates such as the New Entrant Program, and increased emphasis on ensuring transportation security.
While FMCSA's compliance and enforcement programs have been demonstrated to be effective, FMCSA's compliance review program is resource-intensive and reaches only a small percentage of motor carriers. To improve our reach into motor carriers, FMCSA has developed an improved safety oversight process called Comprehensive Safety Analysis 2010 or CSA 2010, which is the Agency's plan to develop an improved operational model for its primary compliance and enforcement operations. The CSA 2010 initiative, which includes our State partners, will reshape how FMCSA approaches its safety mission. Its goal is to develop and implement more effective and efficient ways for FMCSA and its State partners to reduce commercial motor vehicle crashes, fatalities, and injuries. Key features of CSA 2010 are (1) more contact with more carriers and drivers, (2) improved data to better identify high-risk carriers and drivers, and (3) a wider range of interventions beyond safety audits and CRs to address high safety risk behavior earlier.
Collaboration with Other Agencies
Finally, our bus safety program involves collaboration with numerous other Federal agencies and State partners, more so than most FMCSA programs. FMCSA works cooperatively with other Federal agencies to improve the overall safety of motorcoach transportation. We have a mutually beneficial working relationship with the Department of Justice regarding ADA compliance and enforcement. We have collaborated with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on issues related to the nature and causes of bus fires. We are currently involved with the Federal Transit Administration in exploring the development of a bus inspection program for transit buses. Finally, we have assisted the Transportation Security Administration with administering grants to bus companies to improve security within the industry.
Whether it be a college student boarding a bus for a summer cross-country trip, a senior citizens' group traveling by charter bus to see the Grand Canyon, or a class trip to Washington, D.C., it is our duty to ensure our passenger carriers provide safe transportation. The traveling public expects motorcoach transportation to be fatality free - the loss of one passenger's life is unacceptable. Mr. Chairman, during my tenure at FMCSA I have worked hard to accomplish the goal of increased safety for our nation's traveling public. I know the thousands of State and local law enforcement officers in your Districts are also dedicated to improving highway safety. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to outline the work FMCSA is doing to make this segment of transportation safer. I commend you, Mr. Chairman, for demonstrating a strong safety oversight in the transportation of our country's bus passengers. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Carmageddon 405 Escape Hotel Deals
There's trouble brewing in paradise this weekend. It's all that Karma, or is it Carmageddon? The Sepulveda pass section of the 405 Freeway is being closed for 53 hours, choking off traffic in Los Angeles.
From 7 pm Friday to 5 am Monday, half a million vehicles that use the gridlocked pass will have to find another way in or out (Jetblue is offering $4 flights…). The city is advising people to stay put, or as Tom Hanks puts it – "Grid-lock-apalooza! STAY HOME. Eat & shop local!"
For those who would rather escape the gridlock, a number of hotels from Santa Monica and Los Angeles to Newport Beach and Las Vegas are offering Carmageddon 405 escape hotel deals.
Fairmont Miramar Hotel, Santa Monica: The $405 'Live Like a Local' package offers a '405 free weekend' with deluxe accommodations, overnight parking and poolside relaxation at the hotel's Beach Club. Valid for the month of July 2011.
Fairmont Newport Beach: The Fairmont's 'Escape the LA Gridlock' package includes overnight accommodations, 40% off on a 60-minute massage or facial treatments at the hotel spa, 2 cocktails, complimentary valet parking and a late 4 pm checkout. Valid July 15-17, with rates from $139.
Hard Rock Hotel, Las Vegas: The aptly priced $405 Carmageddon package includes 2 or 3 nights in the hotel's casino tower, a complimentary cabana and VIP access to Vanity Nighclub. Package valid July 15-17. For more details or booking, call 800-343-4346 and use promo code 'HCARMA.'
Hotel Palomar Los Angeles: Their Carmageddon weekend package includes complimentary parking, $40.05 dining credit and $4.05 specialty cocktails. Just call (800) 472-8556 and ask for the Carmageddon package.
Mammoth Mountain: Their $405 package includes a 3 night stay in your choice of lodging from the available options, which are the The Mammoth Mountain Inn, Tamarack Lodge & Resort, Juniper Springs Resort and The Village Lodge. The package is valid July 13 – 17, 2011 and you can add additional nights for $135/night, if you want.
Sheraton LAX: Plan a relaxing weekend with a stay at Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles Hotel and enjoy rates starting from $99. Valid July 15-17, 2011. For more details or booking, call (866) 716-8134 and use promo code 'CARMAGDN.'
Newport Beach alone has six hotels (including the Fairmont and the Island Hotel) offering Carmageddon deals and packages. There are even more Los Angeles hotels, restaurants, bars and shopping centers offering all kinds of deals that are mapped out here.

The U.S. Postal Service announced plans to raise postage rates on several different types of mail in April. Sending a Mother's Day card in May, however, will cost the same.
The postal service said cost of a stamp for a basic letter will remain at 44 cents, but the price to send larger envelopes, periodicals, parcels, international mail, advertisements and postcards will go up on April 17.
Postmaster General Patrick R. Donahoe said, "While changing prices is always a difficult decision, we have made every effort to keep the impact minimal for consumers and customers doing business with us at retail lobbies."
Last year, the U.S. Postal Service recorded losses of $8.5 billion.

DescriptionThis is a nice, long moderate with excellent belay stances and fun, varied climbing. It is one of the more continuous lines in the area. An old pin was recently found about 750' up this climb at the bottom of a nice dihedral variation. LocationThe route faces northeast, and follows giant, left-facing diherdral for the entire climb. Start at the bottom of the dihedral and get it on. To get down, find bolted anchor at the top of the tower on the south side. A combination of double and single rope rappels will drop you right back to your packs. The rap line is climber's left of route and alternates between bolted stations and natural anchors. ProtectionA double set of cams with one #4 Camalot plus nuts. Trad anchors for most belays. Rap off combination of bolts, nuts, and trees for descent.
