New Guitar Hero gives sweet emotion to Aerosmith fans

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Activision Inc on Friday unveiled a new "Guitar Hero" video game focusing on the rock band Aerosmith, taking the billion-dollar franchise in a new direction.
Called "Guitar Hero: Aerosmith," the new game will arrive in stores this summer, a surprise to many analysts and fans who had expected the next title to come out closer to the year-end holiday shopping season.
Aerosmith, known for hits such as "Dream On" and "Sweet Emotion," is the top-selling American rock band of all time, with sales of 66.5 million albums in the United States alone.
The game will feature about 30 Aerosmith songs as well as others from various acts that have opened for the band. The price has not yet been set.
"The premise is that it's going to cover the 30-plus years of the band, from high school all the way through the rock superstardom of today," Kai Huang, head of Activision's RedOctane unit, which guides development of the franchise, told Reuters in an interview.
In the "Guitar Hero" games, players try to press colored buttons on a guitar-shaped controller in time with notes cascading down the screen. If the notes are hit, the song plays properly, and the player earns points.
Since the original "Guitar Hero" was released in late 2005, the series has gone on to sell more than $1 billion. Depending on the version, a bundle including the game and a controller costs from $80-$100, while the stand-alone game costs $40-$60.
When Activision reported quarterly earnings last week, analysts grilled the company on its plans for the franchise, expressing concern that sales would slow this year because many players who bought earlier versions with guitars would opt to buy the lower-price stand-alone game disks.
Huang said Activision had not yet decided whether it would offer a special controller with the Aerosmith game.
The focus on a single band marks a new twist for the franchise, whose three main titles featured dozens of artists spanning classic rock, grunge, metal, punk and other rock subgenres. Last year, Activision also released "Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s" with songs from that decade.
"It's just a completely new way to interact with this music and with Aerosmith, and we think there's more opportunity to do that in the future," Huang said.
By spotlighting a single band, the company has also come up with a way to counter rival music game "Rock Band" from Viacom Inc unit MTV and Electronic Arts Inc, Activision's top competitor.
"Rock Band", which includes drums and a microphone as well as a guitar, each week has offered new songs that can be downloaded to consoles like Microsoft Corp's Xbox 360 and Sony Corp's PlayStation 3.
The music industry is eyeing "Guitar Hero" and "Rock Band" as a way to revive flagging sales. "Rock Band" and "Guitar Hero 3," both launched last fall, have together sold millions of songs at about $2 each via download.
Speaking of Aerosmith's willingness to work on the project, Huang said: "They recognize that it can deliver their music in an innovative and new way. It's a new distribution platform for them."
To recreate the sense of attending an Aerosmith concert, developers held motion-capture sessions with band members, including energetic frontman Steven Tyler and lead guitarist Joe Perry.
"As you play," Huang said, "you're going to be seeing Joe and Steven doing their moves onstage."

Our female readers looking for an earth-moving experience are directed forthwith not to the San Andreas fault, but rather to the profoundly silly My Little Secret Talking Head mp3 vibrator - a "breakthrough in adult toys" that allows you to "download and listen to erotic audio fantasies or record your own for the ultimate in …
It rather seems that after IT news vibrators are the second major topic area on The Register.
It doesn't bother me, but I do wonder whether soon you'll have stories of the latest HP vs IBM benchmarks and get a hail of "but where is the vibrator angle?" responses.
Given the voice record and playback features, replace your worn out analogue tape machine with one. Whether or not your secretary returns it to you after transcribing your dictation remains to be seen
Ohhhh errrrr
Its got a USB port!?!
A. This must be the idea of Geek heaven a girl with a USB Port.
B. Chat rooms could get a lot more intresting
Hate to disappoint the Hackettes, but.....
Bergen the German says......
"Spread your Thighs, I love your thighs, I kiss your thighs...."
In a voice which I can only describe as: The bloke on the
Tax Office Helpline meets Johnny Bravo. If that turns women on,
I must have missed something along the way. I'll ask the Girlfriend
tonight for a second opinion but I hope she doesn't find it erotic,
cos' I couldn't repeat it without laughing loudly, which tends to spoil
the moment for all involved.
Not really portable as such
Sure for the (non- PC?) PC enthusiasts it's certainly a niche in the market though.
Now unfreeze me when they develop the fully interactive holodeck will yah, cus everything else before that is just mucking about.
If I remember correctly this is not the first MP3 Vibrator to be featured here. I expect The Register to be just as thorough as it is with all it's other IT gadget articles and post a review and comparison for all similar devices.
The categories should be wide ranging such as:
-Playback Quality/Audio Fidelity (both during use and just as a MP3 Player)
-High and low band frequency chart (like speaker EQ, does it vibrate more/stronger with bass or treble? Does it have a harmonic?)
-Software compatibility (both computer and, um... ergonomic)
-Hardware compatibility (does it work with an IPod?)
-Functional Quality (Is it good? Maybe a Time To Org [T.T.O.] benchmark)
Anyone else have ideas?
That playlist site is a joke, right? Damn, I'm loosing millions every minute I don't go out there and exploit horny folks on the web. If you can sell stuff as laughable as that... and that Bergen dude is worse than the villains in Die Hard. Good he spends all day up on that mountain.
I had a go at listening to the French Boy one... I don't understand French, but he sounded wooden as hell. Let's... just not get started on the "Kinky Nurse" one. I'm a girly girl and French accents can make me weak in the knees, but just, just no.
$99? I'd rather get a £10 rabbit, and use the SitePal free demo to get a sample French accent.
Personalized recordings
why not just leave a message for ya missus asking;
"what the hell ya doin love, why aint i enjoying this with you?"
so why isnt this in the hardware section ?
Given the amount of space wasted on iphones etc, surely something intended to create an "enjoyable user experience" with a token attempt at innovation deserves equal respect ?
Bone conductive sound?
If you'll pardon the double-entendre, does this thing take headphones or does it make the sound audible through some kind of bone conduction through the entire body? That'd be interesting, and perhaps a way of making truly invisible bluetooth headsets...
Italian Stallion ?
The italian stallion preview is really funny. Sounds like someone just like the first lesson of an Italian language course ;)
my tunes
Here's my playlist (if I was a chick, with really bad taste in music):
Good Vibrations (Beach Boys)
Stairway to Heaven (Led Zeppelin)
Land Down Under (Men at Work)
Come Together (Beatles)
I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles (John Lellett)
Something's Fishy (Dolly Parton)
Cherry Pie (Warrant)
Hokey Cokey (Anon)
and finally....
Take Me Out (Franz Ferdinand)
Get a Pentium 4 processor in one of these..

Jan 28, 2014; Michigan State Spartans guard Keith Appling (11). / Reese Strickland-USA TODAY Sports
EAST LANSING — He had an idea something was different when he woke up, and Keith Appling knew when he jumped behind the wheel Tuesday for a drive to class.
I was able to drive with my right hand, Appling said. So at that point I knew I was getting over the hump a little bit. And then when I got to the gym, I was able to shoot and do some things with my right hand.
And by the afternoon, the Michigan State senior point guard was in the middle of it all shooting long-range shots, snapping off crisp passes with that right hand, looking much more capable of playing the game than he did in Sundays 60-51 loss to Nebraska.
A day after that stunning upset, coach Tom Izzo suggested the possibility of having to sit Appling out for the rest of the regular season to get his injured right wrist as healthy as possible for the postseason. The next day, Appling made it clear thats not happening.
I have five Big Ten games left in my final go-round as a Spartan, he said, and I plan on playing in all five of them.
In a season full of unwelcome health news around the Breslin Center, count this one in the category of pleasant surprises timely, too, with huge games at Purdue (7 p.m. Thursday) and league co-leader Michigan (noon Sunday) up next for the No. 13 Spartans (21-5, 10-3 Big Ten).
There was no indication entering Tuesday that Appling would practice, and Izzo said Monday he would only use players this week who were able to do so.
Appling returned to action Sunday after a three-game absence and played 19 minutes, but he clearly favored the wrist, which was initially injured Dec. 4 in a nasty spill against North Carolina. He came up a few feet short on the one jump shot he took.
He was hitting some Tuesday after what he called a breakthrough in his recovery.
I had acupuncture two days ago. Man, Ive been getting laser weve done tried everything, he said. And now I feel like its finally starting to kick in and Im starting to feel a lot better.
Izzo decided to hold Appling out of the last portion of practice, the full-contact scrimmage, and Appling said of that: I was a little mad at coach for pulling me out. But I mean, hes got my best interest at heart for the long run.
And now MSUs long-term outlook is rosier than it was Monday, when Izzo openly wondered when Appling would be able to function.
Junior forward Branden Dawson will miss his eighth straight game Thursday with a broken right hand but is scheduled to get the pins out of it this week. He has a slim chance to see brief action Sunday and should be back by the game after that, March 1 against Illinois.
When hes back, MSU will have its full lineup for the first time since Jan. 4 at Indiana.
For now, the Spartans will gladly take their point guard back. Appling has the green light to work on his shooting and he said hes also working on not falling anymore.

Q3 14:56: The Broncos receive the kickoff to start the second half, and the offense takes over at the 26-yard line after Eddie Royal's kickoff return. On first down, Knowshon Moreno is wrapped up near the line of scrimmage for no gain. Second down brings a deep pass from Kyle Orton intended for Tony Scheffler, but it is broken up. Flag on the play — pass interference on the defense. That sets up a first down on the Denver 45-yard line.
Q3 13:50: After a six-yard gain on a pass from Orton to Scheffler, Moreno finds a hole for a gain close to the first-down marker — it sets up 3rd-and-1. The handoff goes to Moreno, and there's no indication whether it's a first down or not — there are flags all over the field. Two fouls. Illegal shift on the offense, which is declined, and delay of game on the offense for spiking the ball after the play. It's fourth down, and Brett Kern is in to punt. Darren Sproles is back at his own 10-yard line ready to return. The punt sails into the end zone for a touchback.
Q3 12:34: Brian Dawkins is back in the secondary and Mario Haggan is back in at linebacker as the defense trots onto the field. Andra Davis makes the tackle on first down as LaDainian Tomlinson picks up three yards. On second down, Rivers is nearly sacked by Dumervil before throwing a ball intended for Chris Chambers that falls incomplete. Two flags on the play, both on the Broncos. A holding call on Haggan makes it 1st-and-10 for the Chargers at their own 28-yard line.
Q3 11:40: Philip Rivers is hit in the backfield as he lets go of an incomplete pass. On second down, he finds his fullback Mike Tolbert on a screen pass that picks up 18 yards and a first down.
Q3 10:05: Dawkins and Elvis Dumervil snuff a LaDainian Tomlinson run after just a yard on first down, but Rivers comes back and completes a pass to Chambers for another first down at the Denver 37-yard line.
Q3 8:45: Another one-yard Tomlinson run comes on first down. That's followed up by an incompletion by Rivers intended for Chambers with Andre' Goodman in coverage. That makes it 3rd-and-9, and Rivers swings a pass out to Sproles, who is taken down by Wesley Woodyard after a gain of four. On 4th-and-5, Nate Kaeding is in to line up for a 50-yard field goal attempt. He drives it through the uprights, and the Chargers extend their lead by another three points.
Q3 7:57: Eddie Royal is back deep to receive. An update on his performance so far — he's in fact the second Bronco to return both a kickoff and a punt for touchdowns in the same game. It also happened in the Broncos' inaugural season, 1960. Back to today's game — Royal takes it out to the 23-yard line, where the offense will take over on the other side of the TV timeout.
Q3 7:51: Orton finds Brandon Marshall for a 15-yard gain on first down, moving the ball to the 38-yard line. On the next play, Orton backs up into the shotgun and fires toward Tony Scheffler — good for a five-yard gain. 2nd-and-5 brings a pitch to Correll Buckhalter and a first down after the 11-yard gain.
Q3 6:04: A long pass intended for Marshall falls incomplete, but a completion to Scheffler on the following play sets up another first down for the Broncos at the San Diego 34-yard line. Buckhalter runs for five more yards on first down, followed by a one-yard gain by Moreno. On 3rd-and-4, Orton backs up into the shotgun with three receivers out wide. He fires to Marshall, who drags his defender for a first down.
Q3 3:45: On 1st-and-10, Orton pump fakes then fires to Scheffler in the end zone for a touchdown. It's quite a catch by Scheffler — the replay shows the tight end got both feet in bounds as he dove to make the catch. Prater's extra point is good, and the long drive puts the Broncos back on top.
Q3 3:43 The touchdown drive spanned nine plays for 77 yards, taking 4:14 off the game clock. Now Prater is on the field to kick off, and it's fielded by Sproles. Darcel McBath took down the returner with a big hit at the 26-yard line.
Q3 3:39: A 17-yard Tomlinson run gave the Chargers another first down, and he followed it up with a seven-yard run and a run for no gain. On 3rd-and-3, Rivers drops back and is sacked almost immediately by Dumervil. The sack also forces a fumble, which is recovered by Vonnie Holliday, giving the Broncos offense the ball at the San Diego 47-yard line.
Q3 1:05: A pitch to Moreno goes for no gain on first down, followed by a pass aimed at Jabar Gaffney that was broken up at the last moment. It's now 3rd-and-10 for the Broncos at the San Diego 47-yard line. Orton buys time, but coverage forces him to scramble forward for a quick chunk of yards. There's a flag on the play, however — holding on the defense. It's five yards and an automatic first down.
Q3 0:10: A quick pass out to Brandon Marshall nets nine yards on the run after the catch, and a handoff to Moreno on second down goes for a loss of a yard as the quarter comes to a close. The Broncos will have a 3rd-and-2 at the 26-yard line on the other side of the break.
START OF FOURTH QUARTER: Orton drops back and finds a wide-open Marshall for the first down. Now 1st-and-10 at the 17-yard line, Orton hands off to Buckhalter, and he's stopped after a gain of one yard.
Q4 13:50: With Orton in the shotgun, Buckhalter catches a pass out of the backfield for a five-yard gain on second down. That sets up a 3rd-and-4 at the 11-yard line. Orton is in teh shtogun with Buckhalter to his right. Three receivers are out wide. Orton takes the snap, drops back and fires for a diving Royal — but the pass falls incomplete. Prater is on the field for a 29-yard field goal attempt — and it's good, extending the Broncos' lead.
Q4 13:05: That was a 10-play scoring drive by the Broncos. That's two consecutive long drives strung together by the offense. Now the Chargers offense is on the field, and Rivers tries to set up a screen pass to Tomlinson. The defense sniffs it out, most notably Haggan, who drills the running back for a loss of four.
Q4 12:17: An incomplete pass by Rivers intended for Vincent Jackson sets up 3rd-and-14 for the Chargers at their own 23-yard line. Rivers is in the shotgun and he's sacked by Dumervil for the second time today. That brings in Mike Scifres for the punt, with Royal back deep to receive. He tries to find the sideline but is brought down after a short gain at the 29-yard line, where the offense will take over on the other side of a TV timeout.
Q4 11:36: Orton takes the snap from under center on first down, handing off to Buckhalter. The running back finds a big hole and picks up 15 yards for a first down.
Q4 11:26: After an injury timeout for the Chargers, Buckhalter finds room for a six-yard gain on first down. With the ball at midfield, the Broncos have a 2nd-and-4, and it's a handoff to Buckhalter. The ball comes loose, and there's a pile to recover the fumble — Ben Hamilton comes away with it after quickly diving on the ball. After the scramble for the ball, it's 3rd-and-1 for the Broncos — actually a three-yard gain in the end.
Q4 9:51: On 3rd-and-1, Peyton Hillis is in at fullback blocking for Moreno. Moreno leaps in the air and dives forward toward the first-down marker — and the refs are calling for a measurement. It's a first down, and the cheers from the crowd are louder than the boos. Not sure if that's because Chargers fans were confused, or Broncos fans are taking over. Either one is possible.
Q4 9:29: Big tackle by the Chargers on first down — a pitch to Moreno that looked like could go for a big gain is just a gain of two. On second down, Moreno takes a handoff just as the play clock was nearing zero and picks up five yards. It's 3rd-and-3, and Orton takes the snap from under center. He tries to find a diving Royal again, but the pass is a little low and hits the ground. That sets up 4th-and-3 for the Broncos at the 39-yard line — and Kern is in to punt.
Q4 8:00: Kern's punt bounces at about the 3-yard line before heading into the end zone for a touchback. The Chargers take over on their own 20-yard line. On first down, D.J. Williams blitzes into the backfield late and gets to Rivers for a sack and a forced fumble — but Rivers recovers his own fumble on the way down to the ground. That makes it 2nd-and-21 at the 9-yard line — and Rivers completes it to Vincent Jackson for a 17-yard gain. Now it's 3rd-and-4 for San Diego.
Q4 6:27: A pass interference call on Andre' Goodman on a deep pass intended for Jackson gives the Chargers a first down at the Denver 40-yard line. Haggan and Dawkins take down Sproles after a two-yard gain on the following play. On second down, Rivers drops back and is hit by Andra Davis as he lets go of the ball — so the pass falls harmlessly to the ground, incomplete. That sets up 3rd-and-8, and Rivers is in the shotgun. He tries to get it to Malcom Floyd, but Champ Bailey was in tight coverage and the pass sails high.
Q4 5:45: At the Denver 38-yard line, the Chargers elect to go for it on 4th-and-8. Rivers is in the shotgun and fires toward Floyd — but it's broken up by Bailey and D.J. Williams. Turnover on downs.
Q4 4:54: The cornerback tried to jump an Orton pass to Scheffler, and paid the price. Scheffler turned back in field after the catch and sprinted all the way up field to the 8-yard line. It's a 52-yard gain, and the Broncos have a first-and-goal.
Q4 3:00: Two consecutive Moreno runs sets up a third-and-goal at the 5-yard line. Orton drops back into the shotgun with three receivers to the left. He fires the ball to Brandon Stokley, who snags the catch and rolls into the end zone for the touchdown. San Diego head coach Norv Turner throws in the red challenge flag because the defense believes they touched Stokley down at the 1-yard line.
Q4 2:55 The ruling is upheld, and Stokley's touchdown stands. Prater's extra point is up and through the uprights — and the Broncos now hold an 11-point lead.
Q4 2:48 Darrell Reid makes the stop on Sproles at the 23-yard line, where the Chargers offense takes over. Rivers passes to Antonio Gates in the middle of the field — a quick six-yard gain. It looks like the Chargers are electing for a hurry-up offense, and Rivers steps up in the pocket to find Chris Chambers for a 17-yard gain and a first down. They hurry up to the line againand Rivers finds Jackson for another first down at the Denver 36-yard line as the clock winds down to the two-minute warning.
Q4 1:59 Gates catches a pass for another first down at the 25-yard line, and the Chargers hurry back up to the line as the clock continues to tick. Rivers avoids pressure and moves out of the pocket, eyeing a receiver running toward the end zone — actually it was Tomlinson — but Wesley Woodyard's coverage is right there, and the linebacker almost comes away with the interception in addition to the pass breakup.
Q4 1:15: The Broncos defense continues to swarm — Reid sacks Rivers and forces a fumble — but the Chargers recover it. It's an 11-yard loss, and San Diego is forced to use its final timeout.
Q4 1:08: Rivers is hit as he throws on 3rd-and-21, and the pass falls incomplete. Now the team is faced with a 4th-and-21 at the 37-yard line. Kaeding is out to attempt a field goal — the 55-yard attempt is wide left, and the Broncos offense is back on the field. Broncos fans are all cheering and the Broncos sideline acknowledges the fans in the crowd. It's a big celebration in Qualcomm Stadium as Orton takes two knees to close out the team's sixth victory in as many games.
The Broncos now head into their bye week undefeated at 6-0.

Power Steering
Posted 25 October 2011 - 07:14 PM
My car is a 56plate new off the forecourt. Within the first couple of years I had AA and Greenflag out to my car 11 times. Battery problems. absolutly flat on a morning. I was advised to take it back to garage, they weren't interested saying there was nothing wrong with the battery. well AA and greenflag had powered it to get me started. I asked them to change it but that would put me in the 'Gray area' with the warrenty. after 3 years I gave up and changed the battery myself, I need a reliable car.
Then the power steering broke the car sounded like the number 49 bus. It hadf only 19000 on the clock. Had a new one fitted [ 6 months out of warrenty] expensive. 8 months later power steering went again. After a lot of arguing Ford changed it but warrenty would only continue on from the first one been fitted. We are now 4 months from the 2nd new one been fitted and guess what bus sound back and power steering gone again. I have only done 22000 on clock. Thankfully Ford going to change it. How long will this one last, who knows. Even debating changing my car. Has anybody had similar problems.

Your dealer should know this - its covered in a TSB article.
As for the power steering - do you have a diesel or petrol?
Posted 04 November 2011 - 07:44 PM
Thank you for replying to my quiery. The company would not do anything for my battery and they never mentioned anything about softwear.
The car is Diesel. It was in at the garage this week but they said they wouldn't do anything with it, as it was 'just noisey'. So unless I pay for a
new power steering I'm stuck with the noise. Needless to say the money well out weighs the noise.
Posted 16 May 2012 - 02:05 PM
Hopefully sorted for good, but will keep you posted!

There is a filter in the pas reservoir which blocks and causes the whining noise. Most of the time u can just replace the bottle and flush the system to fix it, but if the pump has been starved of fluid it can cause it to fail.
This sounds feasible, it's a shame not all Ford Dealers are aware of this. Mine is still okay after 2000 miles. Hopefully this post will help other S-Max owners.

As deputy vice-chancellor Professor Danie Visser pointed out on 3 October, every newbie needs resources and skills to deal with the "onerous experience" of being a new academic. Read more ... |

Southern California breaking news and trends
Edited wills and board resignations, Catalina Conservancy implodes (photos)
The L.A. Times reports three board members of the Catalina Conservancy — a 15-member organization that manages nine-tenths of Santa Catalina Island — resigned last week, bringing the total to 10 officials and scientists who've recently jumped ship.
The departed parties point to Executive Director Ann Muscat's "controversial leadership style and differences over the direction she is taking the 40-year-old Catalina Island Conservancy." Some members are also concerned over Muscat's salary and expenses.
Muscat, a marine biologist hired a decade ago, is pushing development of new tourist attractions to bring badly needed revenue to the conservancy and the island's tourism-oriented businesses. The conservancy manages most of the island's wild lands, operating on $12 million a year from donations and earned revenue.
Natalie Wood's death certificate changed by authorities
The nature of Natalie Wood's demise, reclassified from "accidental" to "undetermined" in July, has been officially amended on the actress' death certificate, according to a revised document entered earlier this month.
Changes to the death certificate reflect 30-year-old questions surrounding Wood's drowning off Catalina Island in November 1981.
How Wood got into the water, is one of the lingering questions. According to the amended document, that answer was never clearly established.
Sheriff's investigators renewed the investigation last year, shortly before the 30th anniversary of the three-time Oscar nominee's death.
The case remains open, says LASD, noting that the coroner's office made the decision to amend the death certificate. Detectives placed a security hold on the document, and instructed coroner's officials to not discuss the case.
Shark sneaks up on paddle boarder off Catalina coast
Photo by katymcc via Flickr Creative Commons
A shark crashed a party of paddle boarders off the coast of Catalina on Sunday morning, taking a number of bites out of a 15-year-old's board but injuring no one.
Los Angeles County Fire Department officials say the girl who encountered the shark was part of group of paddle boarders about 200 yards from the shore when the close-call occurred.
Lifeguards issued warnings to boaters, swimmers, and divers around the island following the incident. Authorities patrolling the waters have not seen the shark again.

Catalina Island Fox outsmarts extinction
AP Photo/Kevork Djansezian
A Santa Catalina Island fox pup dashes into the wilderness after being released on Santa Catalina Island, CA. The Catalina Island Conservancy released 10 captive-bred pups from one breeding season in an effort to reestablish the subspecies.
The Catalina Island Fox, an omnivorous fox subspecies found only on Santa Catalina Island, has outwitted extinction in an unprecedented creature comeback.
Conservationists began a recovery program for the gray, pointed nose canid in the late 1990s following a distemper epidemic that saw the fox population plummet to a sparse population of about 100 on the 76-square-mile island. When the captive breeding program ended in 2004, the foxes were listed as endangered.
There are now 1,542 cat-sized foxes that share the island with approximately 3,200 humans and more than 1 million tourists a year, reports the L.A. Times. In the foxes' favor, no natural predators exist on the island, and plenty of food — from mice to cherries — is readily available.
It's considered one of the most successful recoveries ever for an endangered species, according to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Safe Routes to School Funding in Illinois | Success Stories | Illinois Partner Affiliates | Existing Legislation and Policies
Safe Routes to School Funding in Illinois
From 2005-2012, each state received federal funding specifically for Safe Routes to School projects via the federal transportation legislation SAFETEA-LU. Many states still have funds remaining from the Safe Routes to School program; see our State of the States quarterly tracking report to see whether this funding is still available in Illinois. To learn more about federal funding for Safe Routes to School, read through the Five Steps to Federal Funding: A Brief Explanation of the Safe Routes to School Program Process. You can find additional resources in our national learning network too.
In July 2012, Congress passed a new transportation bill, MAP-21, which consolidated several bicycling and walking programs, including Safe Routes to School, into a new program called Transportation Alternatives. Starting in 2013, states have the option to continue running standalone Safe Routes to School programs or to have Safe Routes to School projects contend with other types of projects in a Transportation Alternatives competition; see our state Transportation Alternatives snapshot chart to learn more about your state's decisions on how it will implement this program.
Additional information on how Transportation Alternatives works is available in our National Policy section.
Application Guidelines
Illinois has funded 272 local Safe Routes to School projects totaling more than 20 million. All applications require an approved Illinois School Travel Plan. Safe Routes to School projects require no local matching funds.
Visit the Illinois Safe Routes to School program website for more information.
State Outreach Programs
From January 30, 2007 through July 30, 2008, the Illinois Department of Transportation held more than twenty Safe Routes to School training sessions across the state, focusing on the essential elements of a Safe Routes to School program and explaining the School Travel Plan and application processes. These free sessions attracted hundreds of attendees. IDOT contracted with the Active Transportation Alliance (formerly the Chicagoland Bicycle Federation) to hold a statewide Safe Routes to School conference at Illinois State University in the summer of 2008. The keynote speaker was Mark Fenton.
The Illinois Department of Transportation produces two booklets: Kids on Bikes in Illinois for younger children, and Safe Bicycling in Illinois for older children and adults. These materials may also be ordered from the Illinois Department of Transportation's Traffic Safety office.
The Illinois Secretary of State's office also produces free bicycle safety materials, including a bicycle safety course instruction manual.
State Advisory Committee
Illinois has a state advisory committee.
Success Stories
If you would like to submit a success story for consideration, please email it to Margaux Mennesson.
The Success Stories page of the Illinois Safe Routes to School website is continually being updated. Please visit to view the most recent Illinois Safe Routes to School success stories.
Complete Streets Ordinance Adopted in Blue Island, Illinois (2011)
Blue Island, Illinois has a nearly completed sidewalk network and access to transit, and the city has had a long history of providing accommodations for bicyclists in their municipal code. Blue Island has also worked to encourage more students to walk and bike to school and has received Safe Routes to School grants to create better connections. On a sunny summer evening in July of 2011, city council members got on their bicycles and rode to their monthly council meeting; the main agenda item of the evening was to adopt a proposed complete streets ordinance. The vote was nearly unanimous and Blue Island became the first community in Illinois to enact Complete Streets as an ordinance as opposed to an executive order, resolution, or part of a plan. The ordinance will help Blue Island support work they are already doing, like Safe Routes to School. It will also help them work with state and county transportation departments to encourage connectivity and create a network of truly complete streets.

Existing Legislation and Policies
Public Act 096-0130
This bill was passed on August 6, 2009 and went into effect on January 1, 2010. The law bans motorists from sending or receiving texts or email while driving. The law makes exceptions for emergency situations, drivers who are operating a hands-free device, drivers who are stopped and commercial vehicles using dashboard-mounted devices.
Public Act 96-0052 (formerly SB 75)
This bill was signed into law on July 23, 2009, effective immediately. This bill provides school districts with flexibility in their use of school zone safety violations fines. The bill authorizes use of the funds for any Safe Routes to School or School Safety and Educational Improvement Block Grant program. This will provide a stable funding source for Safe Routes to School. The funding will supplement the school safety block grant funds.
This bill creates a School Transportation Task Force to review school busing policy in Illinois.
Public Act 96-0131 (formerly HB 72)
This bill was signed into law August 6, 2009 and is effective January 1, 2010. This bill bans the use of cell phones by drivers while traveling on a roadway through a marked highway construction or school zone. The law contains an exemption for people using voice-activated mobile phones.
Illinois Complete Streets: Public Act 95-0665 (formerly SB 314)
This bill was signed into law October 17, 2007, effective immediately. The Illinois House's vote on October 11, 2007 to override Governor Blagojevich's amendatory veto of Senate Bill 314 marks the final chapter of efforts to enact this important legislation that protects pedestrians, bicyclists and other vulnerable road users. While the legislation passed through the House and Senate, Governor Blagojevich effectively vetoed the SB314 August 30 by changing its meaning. During this month's veto session, the Senate voted to override the veto October 3 and the House did the same October 9.
This was the fourth successful piece of bicycling- and pedestrian-related legislation to become law during the 95th General Assembly - Senate Bill 80 (Public Act 95-0231), which requires motorists to give at least 3 feet of clearance when passing a bicyclist; Senate Bill 639 (Public Act 95-0028), which identifies police on bicycles as emergency vehicles; and House Bill 508 (Public Act 95-0467), which increases the penalty for hitting a crossing guard near a school.
The Complete Streets law requires that bicycle and pedestrian ways be established in or near urban areas in all state transportation projects. It is effective immediately for project planning and required in construction beginning August 2008. The Chicagoland Bicycle Federation worked with the Healthy Streets Campaign, the League of Illinois Bicyclists and the bill's co-sponsors Senators Edward Maloney and Joseph M. Lyons to gain support for the legislation.
This is the fourth successful piece of bicycling- and pedestrian-related legislation to become law this session - Senate Bill 80, which requires motorists to give at least 3 feet of clearance when passing a bicyclist; Senate Bill 639, which identifies police on bicycles as emergency vehicles; and House Bill 508, which increases the penalty for hitting a crossing guard near a school.
Illinois Safe Routes to School Construction Program – PA 94-493
Passed in August 2005, the Illinois Safe Routes to School Construction Program sets forth criteria by which applications under the federal Safe Routes to School program will be scored. One unique criteria is the proximity of parks to a school location. This acknowledges the dynamic relationship between schools and the places where children play. The law also requires that IDOT study the effectiveness of Safe Routes to School programs on reducing crashes.

Been a long time lurking, decided to join to making tracking/watching mods, and indie games far easier on myself.
So, I did some digging and found out something rather interesting that has utterly halted my main bit of progress on my private project. Turns out, the max displayed texture resolution for the UDK is 512x512 (at-least I can't find a setting to change that.) so it was butchering my textures (not that they're that awesome anyway really.), so I thought to myself, hrm, what about Marmoset?

Goodmans GHD8015F review
If nothing else, Goodman's GHD8015F is great value for money -- a dual-tuner PVR with an 80GB hard drive for less than £100. The design is archaic and functionality is basic, but it does the important things well, such as playing and recording. It's an ideal replacement for an old VCR Read more

Chicago Sun-Times.com:
Besides U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush courageously putting himself out there on behalf of Roland Burris in his bid to be seated tomorrow in the Senate, the restrained, almost muted response from the liberal, black community on this story has been startling to say the least. Roland Burris has every right to be seated tomorrow in the Senate. Burris has the credentials and the allegations against Gov. Rod Blagojevich should not be in play here if like 99.9% of most Americans you presume that a person is innocent until proven guilty.Days before Gov. Blagojevich was charged with trying to sell President-elect Barack Obama's U.S. Senate seat to the highest bidder, top Senate Democrat Harry Reid made it clear who he didn't want in the post: Jesse Jackson, Jr., Danny Davis or Emil Jones.
Rather, Reid called Blagojevich to argue he appoint either state Veterans Affairs chief Tammy Duckworth or Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, sources told the Chicago Sun-Times.
Sources say the Senate majority leader pushed against Jackson and Davis — both democratic congressmen from Illinois — and against Jones — the Illinois Senate president who is the political godfather of President-elect Barack Obama — because he did not believe the three men were electable. He feared losing the seat to a Republican in a future election.
Blagojevich spokesman Lucio Guerrero confirmed that Reid (D-Nev.) and U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) — the new chief of the Senate Democratic political operation — each called Blagojevich's campaign office separately Dec. 3. Sources believe that at least portions of the phone conversations are on tape.
Before their contacts, Obama's chief of staff Rahm Emanuel called Blagojevich to tell him to expect to hear from Senate leadership because they were pushing against Jackson and others, according to statements the governor made to others.
Harry Reid, who not too long ago made an ignorant comment on the unruly stench of D.C. tourists, presides over a Congress with zero members who are Black and has now made it publicly clear that he's very comfortable keeping it that way. Where's the outrage? Where's the support for Roland Burris, a Black man being railroaded because of the charges against a white Governor? Where's Sharpton? Jackson? The Congressional Black Caucus? Hell, even crazy Cynthia McKinney? Oh yeah, since this is a Democrat scandal, they're all silent on this one. The hypocrisy of Black libs never ceases to amaze me.

Your shopping cart is empty.
Kat Davies is suddenly wondering if her good deed was a bad idea.
Kat may be new in her faith, but she's embraced the more radical implications of Christianity with reckless abandon. She invited Rochelle—a homeless mother—and her son to move in the apartment she shares with two other housemates. And she's finally found a practical way to channel her passion for healthy eating by starting a food pantry at the church.
Her feelings for Nick are getting harder to ignore. The fact that he's the interning pastor at SouledOut Community Church and one of her housemates makes it complicated enough. But with Rochelle showing interest in Nick as a father-figure for her son, their apartment is feeling way too small.
But not everyone thinks the food pantry is a good idea. When the woman she thought would be her biggest supporter just wants to "pray about it," Kat is forced to look deeper at her own motives. Only when she begins to look past the surface does she see people who are hungry and thirsty for more than just food and drink and realizes the deeper significance of inviting them to "come to the table."
". . . the plot and characters remain fresh and vibrant, shining spiritual truth from each page." —Romantic Times TOP PICK for Stand by Me

Book Description:An oral history of the twentieth century in America.By 1990, over 37,000 Americans had lived to the age of one hundred. Their lives spanned world wars, the Depression, the rise and demise of the great Red Menace, and the emergence of the United States as a world power.Through interviews with centenarians across the country, Bernard Edelman draws a dazzling portrait of Americans in the twentieth century, evoking the work ethic of rural farms, the nation's awe at inventions such as the automobile, and the collective despair at the onset of world war. These recollections are a treasure of the century's social history. The young immigrant survivor who can still smell the smoke of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. The rookie pitcher who struck out the first batter he ever faced in the big leagues: Ty Cobb. The dashing artillery officer who won a Silver Star in the Great War. The officer in the Quartermaster Corps who witnessed the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. The motorcycle racer who barnstormed the nation, setting records that will never be broken. The feisty woman who led a walkout at the premiere of Gone With the Wind. The man who invented Pampers.Their memories serve as a timeless reminder of life in twentieth-century America.

Arts lovers on their way to the beach this weekend have a few reasons to pull off Route 50. That's because, as noted in our April issue, the Eastern Shore continues to shed its rep as a cultural backwater—Mencken called it a "forlorn corner" of Maryland that "succumbed to its poor white trash, who determine its ideas and run its affairs"—and emerge as a viable, and vital, spot for art and culture. Here are a few suggestions…
Don't miss the James Turrell exhibit—yes, that James Turrell—at Easton's Academy Art Museum. Turrell, a 1984 MacArthur genius grant recipient, is considered one of our greatest living artists. He's known primarily for a decades-long effort to transform Roden Crater into a monumental work of art near his Arizona home. Turrell also lives, part-time, in Oxford, about a 20-minute drive from the Easton gallery, where he's installed one of his trademark pieces (above) that uses light and space to bend perception and encourage stillness and contemplation. I didn't know Turrell was a Quaker until a docent in Easton mentioned it, and that tidbit shed light (pun intended) on the man's work.
The show also includes holographic pieces (which are for sale), Turrell's photographs and handmade models of Roden Crater, and architectural drawings of the project's three phases. This is the same gallery that hosted a fascinating Mark Rothko exhibition last year. The Turrell show closes July 7th.
In Cambridge, check out Paul Lockhart's metal sculptures of Chesapeake wildlife at Joie de Vivre Gallery, vibrant folk at the Danny Doughty Gallery, the Harriet Tubman mural near Food Lion, and artfully aged signs by Kevin Davidson at Country Store Gallery. Baltimoreans will be particularly interested in Davidson's series of Natty Boh signs.
For beach reads, pick up the latest Delmarva Review for evocative poetry and prose, Terry White and A.M. Foley's That Reminds Me of a Story for a big-hearted dose of local history, Barbara Lockhart's Mosey's Field for a big-hearted children's story (gorgeously illustrated by Heather Crow), and fiction by Helen Chappell and Diane Marquette (her Chesapeake Conference Center series will appeal to mystery lovers).
On your way home, stop off at the Cambridge Public Library and pay homage to John Barth, the Shore's greatest writer. An interpretive sign on the library lawn tells about Barth's years growing up in Cambridge and his many literary accomplishments. Barth will be 83 years old on Monday.
