idk.. needs more kill in the title
idk.. needs more kill in the title
I watched Attack on Titan, it was pretty cool
how could u not like gurren lagann?!?!?!
Eh, it just never sat right with me. It was trying too hard to be jokey and self-aware for me to take it seriously, but equally it was too serious to see it as a comedy. I didn't like the mech designs either.
There's a lot wrong with it (for different reasons), but Mazinkaiser SKL is more like what I wanted out of Gurren Lagann.
Well let's not beat around the bush. I'm pretty certain the mech designs in Gurren Lagann were supposed to be dog awful.
I mean, it's like the polar oppisate of how micheal bay shows you a shiney tinfoil stickfigure with hotrod flames and asks "What do you mean it's not awesome!?". By trying to change the now rather archachic and oldish looking original designs, he made it look both silly and unrecognisable, alienating the old fans and potential new ones alike.
Instead, Gainax clearly made the designs intentional jokes aimed at silly robot shows both mecha fans and non-mecha fans would have seen as kids. So it's not so much a case of appealing to your sense of cool, but trying to fool you into a sense of nostalgia. I guess you could call it reverse-cool?...

If a faculty member anticipates that there will be a need to provide accommodations he/she can include expected costs in the grant proposal budget. If accommodation requests arise after the grant has been funded, the proposed budget can generally be reduced in other areas in order to cover accommodation costs. The funding source can be contacted for details about their policies. For example, the National Science Foundation offers suppemental Facilitation Awards for Scientists and Engineers with Disabilities [1] to purchase special equipment, modify equipment or provide services required specifically for the work to be undertaken.
Many campuses have a grant assistance office where there is guidance in this area. Faculty members can also contact funding sources directly for information. Some resources are available online. For example, the United States Department of Education [2] (DOE) maintains a website called EDGAR [3] that describes administrative regulations relating to DOE grant money expenditure. The National Science Foundation [4] (NSF) offers their Grant NSF Policy Manual [5] online.
For more information about providing accommodations to graduate students and other employees, consult the Accommodations and Universal Design [6] section of the Faculty Room [7].

Autumn is normally by far by my favourite season. But this year, I don't think it's been playing fair. Too little money, too much angst, not enough days kicking leaves in the park. So what do I do when life has thrown me one too many curve balls? Buy a ridiculous pair of shoes of course!
ASOS, I thank you and your shoe angels for gifting us with the celestial delights of the Halo Sandal. What's that? A huge chunky platform that I probably will topple over sideways in? No, it's a huge chunky platform heel that I probably will topple over sideways in COVERED IN METALLIC TILES. A plastic open-toed sling back top that's completely impractical in Winter weather? Hurrah, of course I love it.
At £50 it's not going to solve my money woes but it will make me want to do ridiculous dancing to 90s classics in my bedroom (I'm thinking N-Trance, c.1995) So well worth the price tag then.
What's your cure for the Winter blues? New shoes? 90s dance? For non-footwear related tips, I have been loving Mathilde Heart Manech's lovely five positive things to do this week posts. They'll sort out your head, I'll work on the heels.

6 comments:
I actually made an audible swoon when I saw these. They are happiness in shoe form. I need them more than want them.
MUST RESIST.Thank you for the mention Frances - glad you like my posts! Bedroom dancing is an instant happiness maker in this house : )
ReplyDeleteOh Frances, usually I'm all 'HELL YES' about your shoes. But no, not with these. I think I hate them.

I love the winter forests, no longer wet and green; Everything within it, hibernating; Every once in a while, a small creature will stir; Sending golden colors up, a flurry and a whir.

NEW YORK NURSE: September 2011
The New York City Health and Hospital Corporation's World Trade Center Environmental Health Center announced that in the ten years since the terrorist attacks, it has treated almost 6,000 people who lived, worked or went to school in Lower Manhattan and have suffered the medical and mental health effects of 9/11. The center's statistics show a patient population that is young – the average age is 47 – and that has more than doubled in the last three years alone. The WTC health center operates at three HHC facilities: Bellevue Hospital Center and Gouverneur Healthcare Services in Manhattan and Elmhurst Hospital Center in Queens. Some notable patient data includes:
St. Vincent's Employees Federal Credit Union has approved a merger with McGraw-Hill Federal Credit Union, which originally served only employees of the McGraw-Hill Companies in New York City, but has grown to encompass more than 100 businesses and organizations in its field of membership. The merger provides stability to the former employees of St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan, which closed last year. Although St. Vincent's Employees Federal Credit Union was an independent financial service provider, the employees of the hospital were its primary members. St. Vincent's Employees FCU brings to McGraw-Hill Federal Credit Union 1,300 members and $8.5 million in assets. Following the completion of the merger, McGraw-Hill Federal Credit Union will have approximately 18,500 members and $267 million in total assets. View a welcome message to St. Vincent's Employees FCU members at www.mcgrawhillfcu.org/welcome.
NYSNA CEO Tina Gerardi has replaced outgoing Association President Karen A. Ballard on New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo's Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT), which has been charged with finding ways to save money and increase quality and efficiency in the state's Medicaid program. Though MRT's work, which lead to a broad range healthcare policy initiatives and the implementation of a global spending cap, has been and will likely continue to be controversial, NYSNA believes it is useful and appropriate to be "at the table" and have input into the ongoing decision-making about this important safety net program. Gerardi is scheduled to attend her first MRT meeting on Oct. 5 in Albany.
The American Nurses Association (ANA)has introduced the "Bringing Immunity to Every Community" campaign, designed to increase nurses' knowledge and competency in immunization, encourage them to be vaccinated, and position them as leading advocates for immunization among peers, patients and the general public. The ANA campaign hopes to counter the public's increasingly eroding trust in the efficacy of vaccines, despite significant declines in vaccine-preventable diseases over the years. According to the campaign material, increased outbreaks of measles, pertussis, and mumps have been noted nationwide. Resources to promote the campaign, including a "Nurses Have the Power to Protect" public service announcement on DVD; a free continuing education webcast and an uploadable poster, are available through www.ANAImmunize.org.
In the wake of the Wisconsin Supreme Court's decision that cleared the way for significant cuts to state collective bargaining rights, Ohio residents rallied in force against an anti-labor bill signed into law by their governor, John Kasich, limiting collective bargaining rights for public employees such as firefighters, teachers, and other state workers. Senate Bill 5 (SB5) would eliminate binding arbitration and prohibit public employees from striking; permit public employers to not bargain on the subject of benefits; revises the process for contract disputes giving power to elected officials at state and local levels to resolve disputes with employees; cuts pay increases for public workers and requires them to pay more for their health insurance. It also limits sick leave and vacation time. We Are Ohio, a citizen-driven, community-based, bipartisan coalition including the Ohio Nurses Association, was created and is demanding the repeal of SB5 by way of a public referendum. A petition with almost 1.3 million signatures — five times more than required to obtain placement on November's ballot — was submitted to the Ohio Secretary of State's offices in Columbus, accompanied by a procession of 6,000 supporters. The Ohio Secretary of State has since announced that more than 900,000 signatures were validated from all 88 counties. In addition, all 88 counties exceeded the 3 percent threshold of voters from the last gubernatorial election.
We are saddened to report that Dr. Bernadine Healy, the first woman to direct the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the head of the American Red Cross during the September 11 terrorist attacks, has passed away at home in Cleveland, Ohio at the age of 67. She had been suffering from brain cancer. She was a frequent and outspoken contributor on women's health issues on television programs and in print. Healey headed the NIH during the tenure of President George H.W. Bush. When President William J. Clinton did not reappoint Healy, she returned to Ohio, where she launched an unsuccessful bid for the U.S. Senate in 1994. In 1999, she became dean of the Ohio State University Medical School and took over as president of the Red Cross. Healy had strong disagreements with the board of the Red Cross after 9/11, leading to her resignation. Healy is survived by her husband, Floyd Loop, former chief executive officer of the Cleveland Clinic, and two daughters.

Founders Journal
The Priority of Doctrinal Preaching
The volumes that have been written in order to show and teach ministers how to preach are enough to make a small library--we all have plenty of books on the subject. In this little article I only purpose to touch one branch of the subject, and that is Direct Doctrinal Preaching.
Doctrinal preaching is the foundation of all true Christian experience. Without a sound doctrinal foundation Christian experience is like cut flowers stuck in the ground--they soon wither and die. Doctrinal truth is not only the foundation but also the superstructure of all true biblical preaching.
Christian doctrines are nothing less than the truths of Christianity. The Bible emphasizes that "all Scripture is profitable for doctrine."
Generally, the objection to preaching doctrine has reference to those doctrines which the objector dislikes.
All Christian affections and purposes are inspired by a view of Christian truth (doctrine). There are no Christian truths (doctrines) which, if presented in their due proportions and surroundings, do not tend to nourish some holy affections. There can be no doubt, therefore, that it is a fundamental part of true biblical preaching. It is the preacher's duty to make these truths clearly understood as the very condition of true faith, holy living and whatever is involved in right practice.
Doctrinal preaching is sometimes stigmatized as dull, dead and unprofitable. It is referred to as the offering of dry bones to souls craving pure milk and meat of the word. We do not deny that there may be some doctrinal preaching that deserves this charge, however, it is not the doctrinal content, but rather the unthoughtful manner in which it is handled by the preachers. Doctrinal preaching should not be cold theological lectures or dogmatic polemic arguments. Doctrine should always be clearly defined and established and developed in its practical and experimental context. Therefore, all Christian practice must be based on correct doctrines and rooted in Christian principles in order to be that kind which accompanies salvation. A preacher who attempts to edify the church without doctrinal instruction is like a builder attempting to build a house without a good foundation.
Some may call the doctrines dry bones. We must ask what kind of a body would that be which has flesh and blood but has no bones? Of course, if the preacher presents doctrine in skeleton nakedness, apart from a vital relationship to life and experience, it is the fault of the preacher and not the fault of true doctrinal preaching.
Sound doctrinal preaching must always be practical and experimental, applied to the necessity and capacities of the hearers. In fact, the two should never be separated any more than flesh and bones should be separated. If they are separated there is death for sure.
They should always blend together in order to compliment and establish each other, and be pervaded by the unction of the Holy One.
The doctrinal preacher need not be concerned that good people will not attend to his sermons. I have generally found that good people will attend if the preacher gives them something to attend to.
Jesus was a Doctrinal Preacher
In Mark 1 we learn some important lessons from the Preacher of preachers--the wise Master Preacher Himself.First, we learn that He prayed before He preached (Mk. 1:13). He was forty days and nights in the wilderness before he began to preach. He prayed before He came to Galilee preaching (Mk. 1:14). Note in Mk. 1:35, "Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and departed to a solitary place; and there He prayed." Immediately after He prayed He said to His followers (v. 38) "Let us go...that I may preach...because for this purpose I have come...." He stated very clearly His purpose: "I have come to preach."
In this chapter we can learn some other important lessons from the Master Preacher. In 1:22, 27 we learn that He preached with authority. In 1:41 we learn that he preached with compassion. But what I wish to emphasize is that He was a doctrinal preacher. Mk 1:22, "And they were astonished at His doctrine...." Mk. 1:27, "What new doctrine is this?" This question tells us plainly that Jesus was a doctrinal preacher.
When Jesus gave the church their marching orders preaching was the priority--"Go ye into all the world and preach" (Mk. 16:15). In Mk. 16:20 we see that they understood His orders--"And they went forth and preached everywhere"--the priority of preaching.
Doctrinal Preaching Must Be Direct
Bishop J.C. Ryle has some very good advice for all preachers on direct preaching. Bishop Ryle was First Bishop of Liverpool and was instrumental in founding twenty-five churches. Doctrine, experience, and practice based upon and shaped by the pure word of God were to him the essentials of the on-going life of the church.In the book, The Upper Room, published by Banner of Truth, there is a chapter called "Simplicity in Preaching." In this chapter Ryle gives five hints for attaining simplicity in preaching (I wish all preachers would study it); the fourth hint will help us in discussing direct preaching. A quote from his sermon:
The fourth hint is this: If you wish to preach simply, use a direct style. What do I mean by this? I mean the practice and custom of saying "I" and "you." When a man takes up this style of preaching, he is often told that he is conceited and egotistical. The result is that many preachers are never direct, and always think it very humble and modest and becoming to say "we." But remember good Bishop Villiers saying that "we" was a word kings and corporations should use, and they alone, but that parish clergymen should always talk of "I" and "you." I endorse that saying with all my heart. I declare I never can understand what the famous pulpit "we" means. Does the preacher who all through his sermon keeps saying "we" mean himself and the bishop? or himself and the Church? or himself and the congregation? or himself and the Early Fathers? or himself and the Reformers? or himself and all the wise men in the world? or, after all, does he only mean myself, plain "John Smith" or "Thomas Jones"? If he only means himself, what earthly reason can he give for using the plural number, and not saying simply and plainly "I"? When he visits his parishioners, or sits by a sick-bed, or catechises his school, or orders bread at the baker's, or meat at the butcher's, he does not say "we," but "I." Why, then, I should like to know, can he not say "I" in the pulpit? What right has he, as a modest man, to speak for any one but himself? Why not stand up on Sunday and say, "Reading in the Word of God, I have found a text containing such things as these, and I come to set them before you"?George Whitefield, the greatest evangelist that ever set foot on American soil, had some distinctives that will help us. One author said of Whitefield's preaching:Many people, I am sure, do not understand what the preacher's "we" means. The expression leaves them in a kind of fog. If you say, "I, your rector; I, your vicar; I, the curate of the parish," come here to talk of something that concerns your soul, something you should believe, something you should do--you are at any rate understood. But if you begin to talk in the vague plural number of what "we" ought to do, many of your hearers do not know what you are driving at, and whether you are speaking to yourself or them. I charge and entreat my younger brethren in the ministry not to forget this point. Do try to be as direct as possible. Never mind what people say of you. In this particular do not imitate Chalmers, or Melville, or certain other living pulpit celebrities. Never say "we" when you mean "I." The more you get into the habit of talking plainly to the people, in the first person singular, as old Bishop Latimer did, the simpler will your sermon be, and the more easily understood.
- He preached a singular, pure gospel--much wheat and little chaff.
- It was preeminently a manifestation of truth. Sin--sins--your heart--Jesus Christ--the Holy Ghost--absolute need of repentance, faith, and holiness.
- His preaching was singularly lucid and simple.
- He was a bold and direct preacher, not that abstract expression "we." "I have come to speak to you about your souls." There was a constant vein of application all the way through the sermon, not a tail piece stuck on at the end. This is for YOU--YOU--YOU.
- He was descriptive. He turned men's ears into eyes.
- Earnestness marked all his preaching.
- He preached with pathos and feeling.
- The glory of Whitefield's sermons was in their directness.
The ways of application are chiefly seven, according to the different conditions of the people, which is seven-fold:
- UNBELIEVERS, who are both ignorant and unteachable.
To these men the Catechism must be delivered. Acts 18:25, Apollos was catechised...in the way of the Lord. Perkins was very strong on this point. He said, "The catechism is the doctrine of the foundation of Christian religion, briefly propounded for the help of the understanding and memory, in questions and answers made by lively voice."The matter therefore, of the catechism, is the foundation of religion.
In such the foundation of repentance ought to be stirred up, that is to say, a certain sorrow which is according to God. Sorrow according to God, is a grief for sin simply because it is sin. Under this point Perkins tells how to use the Law to stir up the heart. - SOME ARE HUMBLED.
"Here we must very diligently consider whether their humiliation be complete and sound, or but begun, and but light, or slight; lest that he or they, receive comfort sooner than is meet, should afterwards wax more hard, like iron, which being cast into the furnace, becomes exceedingly hard, after it is once cold."In reading Jeremiah, chapter 6:13, 14, I noted again one of the marks of the false prophets is just this point, "Even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely, they have healed also the hurt of the daughters of my people slightly, saying peace, peace, when there is no peace."
He points out how these must be built up (expository preaching). - SOME ARE FALLEN.
Falling is either in faith or manners. - THERE IS A MINGLED PEOPLE.
If the preacher is aware of these different kinds of hearers he will be balanced in doctrinal preaching.
Question--How is the word of God to be preached by those that are called thereunto?
Answer--They that are called to labor in the ministry of the word, are to preach sound doctrine, diligently, in season and out of season; plainly, not in the enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power; faithfully, making known the whole counsel of God: wisely, applying themselves to the necessities and capacities of the hearers; zealously, with fervent love to God and the souls of his people; sincerely, aiming at His glory, and their conversion, edification, and salvation.
Note carefully the six areas emphasized in this answer:
- Diligently--The Scripture, in speaking of Apollos, who was an eloquent
speaker says, Acts 18:25 (KJV) "This man was instructed in the way of the Lord;
and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of
the Lord, ...."
- Plainly--1 Cor. 2:4--see the pattern of a faithful minister, "And my speech
and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom but in
demonstration of the Spirit and of power."
- Faithfully--making known the whole counsel of God (expository).
Jer. 23:28, "He that hath my Word, let him speak faithfully."
1 Cor. 4:1,2 "Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover, it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful."
- Wisely--Col. 1:28, "When we preach, warning every man, and teaching every
man in all wisdom."
- Zealously--with fervent love to God, and the souls of His people.
2 Cor. 4:14, "For the love of Christ constraineth...." This is heavenly fire.
- Sincerely--2 Cor. 2:17, "For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ."

Makers Mark? Why I´d rather suck the snot from a collie dogs nose...Elmer T. Lee for me!
Nobody needs 80 proof alcohol. Universal background checks for all buyers and nothing larger than a pint sold legally should fix the supply problem, too.
If there is this much demand, increase the price & keep your luxury product image.
Rule 1 in business. Don´t mess with success. See New Coke.
Is this the same as paying for the new pound of coffee for which you receive 12 ounces, or the pound of bacon which weighs 12 ounces, or the can of soup you pay to receive in a smaller container?
Makes no sense. It´s the aging process that the limits supply not alcohol content. My BS meter is banging.
Water it down so we can make more money.Now there´s a business model to reflect our times...
Sometimes, more is less.
I am a Makers Mark Ambassador. Got an email about this two days ago.And FYI, they don´t age it for a specific time. They sample it as it ages until it meets their criteria. It depends, I think, on the barrel itself.If you sign up as an Ambassador they put your name on a keg and when it ages to perfection, you can get some from your own keg. I´m still waiting for mine, but in the meantime, they carry it at a local store.
And that´s why I´ll be buying JW Weller 109 Antique.

The beer selection is incredible, from the draft lines to bottles they had several of my favorite beers. I started with the Allagash White, and then was given a few tastes of various brews I'd never had (courtesy of the bartender in shot glasses designed like mini-beer mugs)... a lot of places would charge you for a sampler, but I was given them to choose what I'd like best, which I really appreciated. I went with the Chimay (a long-time favorite)and later Sixpoint Brownstone, and my boyfriend had a Keegan's Mother's Milk Stout, Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye Ale and an Anchor Porter.
We munched on popcorn from the old fashioned machine at the end of the bar area, chatted with some other patrons and played music from the jukebox. All in all it was a nice way to spend the end of the holiday off of work, great beer and a really low-key atmosphere... I will absolutely be going back and bringing more friends with me!

Lexi Thompson spent Demo Day at the Cobra Puma booth, hitting balls for a growing audience as a disc jockey pumped music in the background. Golfweek caught up with Thompson before she heads to Australia to start the 2012 season at the RACV Australian Ladies Masters.
Golfweek: Demo Day is quickly becoming an annual thing for you. What's your favorite part about it?

PGA Show 2012: Lexi Thompson at Demo Day
A look at LPGA teen sensation Lexi Thompson during an afternoon session at Demo Day.
Lexi Thompson: Probably just hitting in front of all the fans and fans of all the equipment; just showing off all their new stuff.
GW: The actual show is more formal. Do you like this setting better?
LT: Both things are really set up good. They always have music playing, so it's always fun. They get a lot of people.
GW: You're going to guest disc jockey this afternoon near the Cobra Puma tent, is that right?
LT: I might go up in the truck and experience that for a little bit. That will be interesting. I love music, so...
GW: What's on your iPod right now?
LT: I have the new Drake CD. I have the Rihanna CD. I have Linkin Park, Blink 182, just stuff that gets me pumped up. This is, like, normal. I love listening to music.
GW: When is your first tournament?
LT: The RACV Australian Ladies Masters. I leave Saturday.
GW: Since Dubai, what have you done in the offseason?
LT: I've just been practicing a lot and working a lot on my short game, just chipping and putting. I've been having a lot of fun, too; just hanging out with family and enjoying it.
GW: You're now an LPGA winner. What's a new goal for 2012?
LT: I go into every event wanting to win, but just continuing to improve on my game is an all-time goal for me.
GW: What do you think of Yani Tseng's game?
LT: She's amazing. She's a very consistent player, and she hits it pretty long too; that's why she's won, I think, 11 or 12 times. Definitely a great competitor; the best in the world.
GW: You're pretty hard to miss in all of your Puma gear; it's pretty bright. Does that fit your style?
LT: That definitely fits in with my style. Standing out, bright colors. I love pink, too, and Puma has a lot of pink. I just love standing out.
GW: Do you have a color?
LT: I do have a final-round color; it's blue. Actually, both my wins, I had the same outfit on.

Arrived with little fan-fare, new hybrid vehicles on the 192 route. Similar to the existing hybrids Enviro 400Es on the 42/43, 197 and 219, although the new ones have the added bonus of wi-fi. First few have been introduced today with more expected over the coming weeks.

This is something ive been keeping my eye on, you may remember last year I reported on the Wigan Hub Study on the relocation of the central bus station and the merging of the two railway stations. This report found that the two principal options 3a and 3b which involved a modernisation of North Western and the construction of several rows of bus stops at the station to create a bus spine throught the town (effectivley splitting the current bus station between the existing site and North Western with more on street pickup points in the town centre as well). 3a had a cost of £30m and a TfGM BCR of 1.9, 3b option involved moving the Wallgate platforms into North Western and cost £10m more at £40m but had the same BCR of 1.9. These options were then incorporated into option 6 which took some of the improvements and trimmed the costs down to £19m, essentially the budget option it produced a BCR of 3.4 but was only a short term fix to demand concentrating on improving the bus services rather than rail services.
I argued at the time that while 3b was a higher cost option it provided the same level of return on the investment as 3a though the report favoured the cheaper option 3a and 6. Well about a month after it first appeared the report version 3.0 dissapeared from the Councils website. This weekend a new version has appeared, version 4.0. The most interesting thing is the 3b option while still costing £40m now has a BCR of 3.6 becoming the highest returning option. The 3B option has also been assessed as providing a Dft BCR of 5.1 again beating option 6 which was previously considered the best option by the report, (the difference in methodology is tfGM assessment assesses tangible financial benefits, Dft assesses intangible benefit to business). They appear to have raised the BCR by factoring in the other transport improvements underway in Wigan, better accounting for the improved journey times to Manchester via Chat Moss and taking onboard that TfGM likes big shiny interchanges not the cheapest budget option. To me it smacks of asking the consultants to keep producing a report until they get the answer right, however as it was the option I wanted and thought provided the best long term improvements im not complaining!

And an update on the A6 Quality Partnership Scheme.
http://www.transportforgreatermanche...future_schemes For the 192 WiFi on 40 buses from mid-March, new turnaround facility in Stockport to be built this year and which will improve services to the college and Stagecoach are building a 300-400 space park and ride at Hazel Grove next to The Rising Sun at the junction of Buxton Road and Macclesfield Road. The A579 Leigh-Bolton 582 service is to be a pilot of Voluntary Partnership Agreement. Once both are up and running they will be comparing VPA and QPS to decide which to rollout en masse across the rest of the region. As I understand it in a QPS scheme its the bus company thats legally bound to provide improvements while in a VPA its the local council who are obligated but not legally bound to. Stagecoachs QPS obligations run until 31st March 2017 while the VPA will run for five years. They decided QPS wouldnt work on the 582 route because the majority of the infrastructure was over 10 years old. One of the issues coming up with QPS is that every time they improve infrastructure they have to legally amend the agreement meaning lots of lawyers. The five QPS that will be rolled out alongside the Bus Corridor scheme are. A580 Frederick Road to Old Clough Lane, Salford 1 A580 Old Clough Lane to Ellenbrook, Salford 1 Rochdale Road/Manchester New Road, Manchester/Rochdale 2 Regional centre, Manchester 3 Wigan/Hindley/Atherton/Tyldesley/Leigh, Wigan 4 Oxford Road, Manchester 5 Upper Brook Street, Manchester 5 Lloyd Street / Cambridge Street, Manchester 5 |

I'd imagine it depends upon how many 319s are needed for the Valley Lines and GW suburban electrification. If the 315s displaced by 345s on Shenfield Metro aren't in a good enough condition then they'll most probably use 319s on the Valley Lines instead of 315s. If so then most probably new build for a standard fleet. On RUK rumours are saying this could be some of FCCs 377s for northern electrification

Sherri Tombarge, Editorial Services P: (540) 464-7207F: (540) 464-7443VMI, 111 Smith HallLexington, VA 24450
LEXINGTON, Va., Nov. 8, 2011 -- Cadets volunteering with local rescue squads are building bridges with the community and saving lives in the process.
At the Fairfield squad, the 15 cadet volunteers have been able to take on a significant share of the responsibility.
I feel like we've opened up the doors for them to participate here, said Jim Quist, president of the Fairfield Volunteer Rescue Squad. I can say to these guys, Lives are in your hands, and I trust them.
The cadets take that responsibility seriously, realizing that their actions can make the difference between life and death.
Early on, when I started doing this on my own, I had a call reporting a 6-year-old girl having difficulty breathing said Dylan Kelly '14. When I got out there, a woman handed me this limp 6-year old-girl, and I knew these people were really depending on me.
Kelly's actions helped save the girl, and similar experiences have given the cadets new insight into everyday life.
I think the car crashes have changed the way I see things most, especially when it comes to people not wearing seat belts or driving after having a couple of drinks, said Katie Coonan '13.
Cadets are on duty at the Fairfield Volunteer Rescue Squad for overnight shifts on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. In addition, they are able to devote free time on weekends and summers to the rescue squad.
Part of being a VMI cadet is being part of a bigger community, said Quist. These are just some of the cadets who have applied that to not only the community of VMI, but also the community in which they reside.
Cadets routinely have the opportunity to live at the fire department over the summer, giving them a depth of experience that would be impossible otherwise. Kelly spent his summer living at the rescue squad and responding to calls.
I didn't realize how crazy it was until it did it, said Kelly, who responded to about 70 calls over the summer. I've had calls where some of my professors have been the ones in need.
Cadets work in duty crews consisting of two to three members, usually consisting of both males and females who are certified to give emergency care and drive the ambulance.
I think it's good for the patients to have male and female responders, said Coonan. Even though we're not going to feel awkward about it, the patient might feel awkward.
Rural rescue squads in the area are dependent on the participation of skilled volunteers. Having the cadets participate in Fairfield enhances the squad's ability to serve the community.
When these cadets are giving of themselves in this fashion, this speaks highly of their character, said Quist. It's been a pleasure for me to share time with these guys.
Cadet EMTs also volunteer with the Lexington rescue squad.

Nice case, bad drive cagesPros: Excellent case, sturdy, accepts standard ATX PSU, lots of space, cheap fans (replaced with better fans before power on, so no notes about noise). Plenty of knockouts on the back above the ATX backplate for additional I/O. Cons: Both included drive cages were DOA. Bummer. Working on RMA now for them (want to keep the chassis, it really is that nice). Other Thoughts: If the included drive cages were not DOA this would be an excellent deal, as it sits, not so much...

Born in Mississippi in 1938, Charley Pride is one of the few black country musicians to have enjoyed considerable success in the mostly white industry. During his 20s, he played baseball for the Negro American League, but moved over to music in 1966 when he was signed by RCA. Pride was the first black musician to perform at the Grand Ole Opry. His hit songs include "Is Anybody Goin' to San Antone" and "Kiss an Angel Good Mornin'."
"The tastes of country music fans are not limited to the narrow range defined by consultants and programmers and record company moguls."
"What we don't need in country music is divisiveness, public criticism of each other, and some arbitrary judgement of what belongs and what doesn't."
Early Life and Baseball Career
Legendary country musician Charley Pride was born on March 18, 1938, in Sledge, Mississippi. Pride was one of 11 children. His parents, who were poor sharecroppers, had named their son "Charl Frank Pride," but due to an error on his birth certificate, his legal name became Charley Frank Pride.
Pride taught himself to play guitar in his early teens, but his dream was to become a professional baseball player. In 1952, he was selected to join the Negro American League, pitching for the Memphis Red Sox, Louisville Clippers, Boise Yankees and Birmingham Black Barons. While he traveled from game to game, Pride often sang and played guitar on the team bus.
Country Music Success
On a trip to Nashville, Pride met Jack Johnson, who promised the musician a management contract. A year later, Pride returned to the city to record a demo, featuring the singles "The Snakes Crawl at Night" and "Atlantic Coastal Line." The recording made it to RCA Records head Chet Atkins, who immediately signed him to the label. Pride officially released "Snakes Crawl at Night"—his first single—January 1966.
It was his third single, "Just Between You and Me," that launched Pride to stardom, reaching No. 9 on the U.S. country charts and he won a Grammy Award for the song the following year. Following his win, Pride had his first No. 1 hit with "All I Have to Offer" (1969). The recognition led to a long and auspicious career for Pride, making him the first African-American superstar in country music. His later hits include "Is Anybody Goin' to San Antone" (1970) and "Kiss an Angel Good Mornin'" (1971).

Nashville Sound
The Nashville Sound developed in the late 1950s, when recording studios and artists replaced some of the traditional elements of honky-tonk music with more contemporary pop music sounds. Producer and musician Chet Atkins was one of the genre's inventors, and is credited with bringing country music to a much wider audience. With his smooth voice, Charley Pride is one of country music's few African-American stars—and the only one to be inducted into the Grand Ole Opry. Women were also crucial to the popularity of the Nashville sound, with stars like Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynne bringing women's perpectives, as well as glamour, to the genre.
Not only did the Nashville Sound influence the sound of country music, but it also helped to establish Nashville, Tennessee, as the country music capital of the world. Thousands of aspiring artists now flock to the city each year, hoping they might be the next big, musical discovery.
