Are you disappointed that there won't be an air show at ILM next year?Due to work and family ISubmitted by Alan (not verified) on Tue, 03/05/2013 - 3:07am.
Due to work and family I have not been able to attend the air show for quite a few years. Now that i am not able to work and family is up and out i could go to another air show. Now i find out that there is not going to be one really sucks. And they say they can't get the flights rescheduled. Ha, they didn't have a problem in the years past. »
im not done...Submitted by stephanie (not verified) on Sat, 03/02/2013 - 5:26pm.
In the state that was first in flight no less... money that could have helped our airspace and city will now be spent in sc myrtal beach... my children will see the blue angels...not what I was expecting when I googled our next show... »
Are you Serious?Submitted by stephanie (not verified) on Sat, 03/02/2013 - 5:19pm.
I am a native to wilmington nc and have been going to the air shows since a child. I now have children old enough to enjoy the same memories I did and your telling me I can't take them because flights can't be scheduled for later?? Think about it, they have 3 years to arrange flights to leave and arrive at times the show is not going on.....so what's the problem?? One weekend in 3 years is a problem? This is rediculous!! Inconvenience a few passengers verses disappointing a whole town I say the planes that complain don't need to land here anyway! Wow.. »
Wait a Minute !Submitted by Native Wilmingtonian (not verified) on Mon, 02/18/2013 - 11:55pm.
Hey! They still have Airshows in New York City, Washington, DC and a lot of other M A J O R Airport areas !! Sounds as if it is just too inconvenient for the Azalea Festival and the airport folks to put on. And we must not inconvenience the Azalea Fest folks ans especially the sponsors Things pass away in time. Perhaps the Azalea Festival should go the way of the Greenfield Lake Train? With exceptions for the street fair and the parade it is a Sponsors party event. I miss Al McGuire and the (free) Variety show! See, things do go away. . . »
This is a huge bummer. ISubmitted by ILMproud123 (not verified) on Fri, 02/15/2013 - 10:46pm.
This is a huge bummer. I have been going to the airshows here since I was little. I was really looking forward to taking my son next year. You would think there could be a little more coordination between the Airlines and the event coordinaters. After 40+ years they are just now complaining? Here's an idea to the airlines, if you want to here gripes, how about the increased prices and additional charges to fly these days.... I degress. The real point I am making here is the fact that this is a huge blow to our community in an event we all look forward to. It only comes around every 3-4 years. I think ILM folded without a fight. Way to go guys. »
Air ShowSubmitted by Local51 (not verified) on Fri, 02/15/2013 - 9:55pm.
To me it sounds like this is a planning problem.I am sure the airlines would work with the airport in getting the flights rescheuled.The amount of money the airport takes in during these airshows,tell me somebody is not telling the whole story. »
That's EXACTLY what I'mSubmitted by Guest_pilot (not verified) on Sat, 02/16/2013 - 12:54pm.
That's EXACTLY what I'm thinking. Someone isn't telling us the whole story. »
Roseborough, we actually have computers these days...Submitted by Guesttenheimer (not verified) on Fri, 02/15/2013 - 8:12pm.
...that can help you to reschedule a few silly flights and pacify your flying cattle! You don't have to continually manage that airport on the back of an envelope any longer. »
You can just willy-nillySubmitted by Guest123 (not verified) on Sun, 02/17/2013 - 2:42pm.
You can just willy-nilly move flights around for one day when you are a tiny spoke airport without all the connection routes for multiple airlines being affected. As if the local head as that kind of control in our tiny city/airport. Man, the people in this town get nuttier every year. »

The highlights Wednesday night:
"American Idol" rolls out its latest two-hour episode at 8 on Fox. The six finalists -- Lazaro Arbos, Janelle Arthur, Candice Glover, Kree Harrison, Amber Holcomb and Angie Miller -- perform two songs apiece to fill that time. "Idol" says one will be a song the finalist wishes he or she had written. The two-song challenge probably helps Kree and Candice, the most consistent performers in this bunch.
On "Modern Family," Javier (Benjamin Bratt) has his new love, Trish (Paget Brewster), along for a visit with Manny (Rico Rodriguez). The visit infuriates Gloria (Sofia Vergara) at 9 on ABC, and that plot should give Vergara a lot of comic opportunities.
Brewster used to act on "Criminal Minds," and that CBS drama offers a new episode at 9. A time capsule contains information that shakes a Colorado town and may explain a police officer's death 25 years earlier.
If you prefer history, look to PBS at 9. "Nova" begins a four-part series called "Australia's First 4 Billion Years." Scientiest Richard Smith serves as guide on this journey through time and across a continent.
ABC was encouraged by the good ratings for the premiere of "How to Live With Your Parents (For the Rest of Your Life)." The second episode airs at 9:30. The main lure here is the cast of Sarah Chalke, Elizabeth Perkins and Brad Garrett.
The episodes of "CSI" and "Nashville" are new at 10. On CBS' "CSI," Russell (Ted Danson) has to get answers from a 6-year-old who witnessed a triple homicide. ABC's "Nashville" follows another crisis for Rayna (Connie Britton) and supplies guest stars Chris Carmack, Jay Hernandez and JD Souther. FX counters with a new episode of "The Americans," and that spy thriller offers its first-season finale May 1.

This is Huge!!!!!
Battery came in today. Not only does it fit in the Viper, It fits with ease, no squeezing!!! The actual dimensions are 100x33x38mm. Unbelievable.
This pack is 5S 2250mah 50C Let's hope it performs!! Here is the scoop.... Maxamps.com. You pick the cells and mah pack and they build it for you. The cool thing is, you can tell them where you want your battery leads exiting from. If you look at the pics, you can see that I had the leads coming out of the top of the pack. This allows me to shorten the wires, plug in the pack and place the battery in the fuse without any wires on the side. Note: When you have the pack built you can make these modifications as well as select what kind of plugs and balance taps. As seen in the pics, I chose no plugs, because I know I am going to cut them short. The weather here is crap, but I will report how the packs handles |

Bella Riva Travel Tips
Unwind in Florida at Bella Riva Vacation Rentals"
If your toes have been longing to feel the sugary softness of Florida's white sand beaches, they will be glad to hear that Bella Riva vacation rentals are as close to the beach as they can get. Bella Riva Resort is located right on Okaloosa Island's Fort Walton Beach. Bella Riva condos are perfectly situated to take in a panoramic view of the shimmering green waters of the Gulf. You can enjoy this sight every morning from your spacious private balcony.
You will also enjoy how welcoming Bella Riva condos feel. Unlike hotels, they provide large living spaces and full kitchens where groups can gather, and multiple bedrooms, so even with a large group, everyone can have a little privacy. Take advantage of the resort's beachfront pool and hot tub or the complimentary (in season) Beach Service, which sets up an umbrella and chairs for you every day on those famous white sands.
Exploring Fort Walton Beach
Waterside activities abound near Fort Walton Beach rentals. Bring home a fresh catch from the Okaloosa Island Fishing Pier. If you forgot your fishing rod, you can rent one there. From the pier, you may also be able to spot leaping dolphins. If you are romantically minded, linger to watch the Florida sunset.
A day away from the beach can still mean a day of fun for vacationers staying at Fort Walton Beach rentals. If you'd prefer that someone else caught the fish, but still crave seafood, sample the fare at Old Bay Steamer. Their seafood buckets are a local favorite. Visitors staying in Bella Riva condos like to ride off a big meal on the Timpoochee Trail, a biking trail that runs between the nearby towns of Destin and Panama. Bella Riva vacation rentals will provide a relaxing beachside vacation with the style of a resort and the convenience of home.

accessibility & help
Tuberculosis (TB) is the single most deadly infectious disease in the world. In 2011, TB killed 1.4 million people and around 8.7 million new cases were diagnosed (World Health Organisation 2012). Asia and Africa are the hardest hit but Eastern Europe has also recently seen a major increase in deaths related to TB after many years of steady decline.
The British Red Cross supports TB programmes in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, as well as helping combat TB through a community-based health programme in Liberia. The programmes we support focus on raising awareness about the disease among young people and supporting people diagnosed with TB in their homes.
Two major challenges in the fight against TB are the increase of cases that are resistant to first line drugs used to treat the disease and co-infection with HIV . Community action is key to providing an effective response to reduce the number of TB infections and related deaths and must include the participation of affected people and their families.
We're combating misinformation around tuberculosis and helping patients in Kyrgyzstan.

We're helping people in Kazkahstan where TB and HIV are major health problems.

Diagnosed with TB and HIV, and estranged from his wife and daughter, Dmitry had no desire to live. Today, he has a different story.
When Alla was diagnosed with TB she felt like an outcast, but with counselling and support from the Red Crescent she's feeling better.
Sergei was so worried about the stigma of living with TB he thought he'd lose his job, but with our support he's no longer afraid.
The stigma in Jelena's community is so large that even her son does not like her working with TB patients as a Red Crescent nurse.
Tuberculosis (TB) threatens the lives of thousands of people, many of them already vulnerable, in the central Asian country of Turkmenistan.

Something was wrong. Mark Duper knew it. He became angry for no reason. He became depressed for days. He went to a store, then stood there unable to remember why he was there. He'd get in a conversation and forget a friend's name.
"And not just any friend,'' the former Dolphins receiver said. "A good friend or family, someone I'd known for years. I couldn't remember things like that."
So he flew to Los Angeles a few weeks ago, where a doctor pumped dye through his brain. And Duper, who could out-run anything on a football field, sat in a closed office and found he couldn't out-run this.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
- Photos: See exclusive pics of Mark Duper's illustrious career
POLL: Aside from Dan Marino, who is your favorite Dolphin of all-time?
- Miami Dolphins' 50 greatest players of all time
"Mark, there's a problem,'' the doctor said.
"Let's hear it,'' Duper said.
Nearly two years ago, he had a life-threatening different problem with the c-word. Cancer. Doctors removed a cancerous kidney. He recovered. He changed. His diet is 90 percent fish now. He drinks water by the buckets.
This time the doctor invoked the newer c-word. Concussions. It's one football players keep hearing. The doctor said Duper was diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a degenerative brain disease thought to be caused by concussions.
Was he scared?
"Yeah, I was scared,'' he said. "I'm 54. I feel fine otherwise. I want to do what everyone does - grow old, see my family grow, enjoy life for a long time to come. And now this comes and …"
He lets out a deep breath.
"I'm staying positive."
As he talks, Duper is driving with his wife, daughter and younger brother from his Broward home to his home in rural Louisiana. Duper is a country kid. You might not know this considering he was a face of the sleek, modern, Miami Vice Dolphins of the 1980s.
He grew up on a small ranch, riding horses, feeding cows and throwing slop for pigs. His fast feet got him a track scholarship to Northwest Louisiana and, ultimately, to the Dolphins.
But he still considers himself country in his heart, and so going back home each Thanksgiving is part of his roots. He'll roast a pig, he says. He'll check out the horses, he says.
"I hunt, I fish, I can put food on the table if there's no supermarket,'' he said. "If there's a crisis in this world, just put me in the woods. I'll survive."
This Thanksgiving is different for him again, though. Again he has a health crisis. And so, again, he's going to enjoy his roots and his family in a way that we all should.
"Nothing for granted,'' he said.
The second c-word caused that. Duper didn't play football until his senior year in college, and knows all his concussions stemmed from his pro days. He can list dates and plays, the worst of them in the 1984 AFC Championship Game against Pittsburgh.
A little (5-8) and little-known cornerback named Sam Washington put his helmet, "right in my earhole, and it was like the cartoons,'' Duper said. "Bells went off. Whistles. I saw stars."
He went back to the huddle. Teammate Nat Moore looked at him. "Dupe, you ain't right," he said.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia is a volunteer service
This essay contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. Essays may represent widespread norms or minority viewpoints. Consider these views with discretion. Essays are not Wikipedia policies or guidelines. |
This page in a nutshell: The editors on Wikipedia are mainly volunteers. Editors can contribute as much as they want, and however long they desire. |
Wikipedia is a volunteer service. What does this mean?
- All contributions are made on the free time of their contributors
- There are no set crews or teams working on articles on any topic, just those who come along and volunteer information whenever they wish
- Anyone can take a break for any period of time or drop out whenever they like
- You can always stop working on one group of articles, take up working on another for a while, then resume the previous one, with no expectations from others
- You have the right to quit and never return, no questions asked, no explanation needed
- There is no minimum or maximum anyone can contribute
- No one is, can be, or will be paid for their contributions
- There is no deadline
Reasons why one may not be editing[edit]
There are various reasons why one cannot immediately edit one or more pages as they should be in order to enable it to meet certain standards, or even to prevent it from being deleted. If an editor states his/her intentions to make some improvement, but that more time is needed for any reason, this should very much be respected.
Researching topic[edit]
Sometimes, an editor may have the intention to improve an article, but finding information on the topic may be time consuming. This may include reading books, newspapers, journals, or web sites and studying the information contained within them, deciding which of these to read, or writing this information in encyclopedic form. Rome was not built in one day. Neither is Wikipedia.
Other Wikipedia activities[edit]
Many editors are busy with creating or editing a series of articles or other materials, or otherwise making other improvements to Wikipedia, and therefore, cannot have any disruption to work on any unrelated materials.
Busy life[edit]
Some people may be dedicated to Wikipedia as their number one cause in life. However, most editors are not. Editing Wikipedia is usually more in the nature of a hobby, which ranks in personal importance behind editors' personal lives and (usually) their employment. Common personal obligations and other issues that may supersede Wikipedia editing include, but are not limited to:
- Job/career
- Studies: school, college, university, or the like
- Social and family life: dating, marriage, children, familial duties, other time with family and friends
- Other hobbies or projects
- Religious obligations or holy days
- Vacations, travel, and other breaks
- Illness or other unexpected emergencies
Because Wikipedia is completely voluntary, under no circumstances are editors obligated or expected to make any edits, respond to any messages, or to otherwise have any involvement. Please don't presume that if a fellow editor has not responded to your message that you have offended them or that they are insulting you: assume good faith and remember that life might have gotten complicated and by drawing negative inferences from their lack of editing you might be making it less attractive for them to productively contribute to the project in the future.
Sometimes Wikipedia can be stressful. When this happens, sometimes the best thing to do is take a break. If you're not enjoying editing, then it is time to take a break – don't be a wikipediholic. Remember, if things don't go your way, it's not the end of the world. If stress is bothering you, try looking at these adorable kittens.

"Ladies in the business not yet signed to televised wrestling, i you're trying to get a job, burying talent that is already on television is the kiss of death."
- Velvet Sky issuing a vague warning on Twitter
There's rumors that a picture of Velvet Sky and Angelina Love kissing have been floating around the internet for quite some time now, but in actuality, such a picture does not exist at the time. People are confused by a picture of Velvet and Madison Rayne attempting to kiss while Angelina stops them.
Since Drew McIntyre messed around with his Twitter account, Sheamus has been avoiding the social media website ever since. All of the Tweets on there have been deleted. Interestingly, WWE has encouraged their performers to utilize the site more frequently as of late.
It was revealed earlier in the week that TNA had signed Alpha Female, a wrestler who is known in Europe. Management has decided to pair her up with Chris Sabin, who recently broke up with Velvet Sky on screen. The relationship is designed to be a focal story line point for the Knockouts division.
TNA taped the hall of fame induction ceremony for Kurt Angle at Impact Wrestling today. After delivering an emotional speech, Ethan Carter interrupted the segment, which led to a match between the two at TNA Lockdown being announced.
While there are some fans who are under the impression that he has really left the compny, Jeff Hardy will be returning to the company in March. He has already been announced for TNA Lockdown 2014, where is scheduled to be a part of the Lethal Lockdown match.
There will be a Lethal Lockdown match at TNA Lockdown 2014 this year. Team Dixie will consists of Ethan Carter, Bobby Roode, James Storm and Rockstar Spud. They will face Team MVP, which will include MVP, Gunner, Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards.
After weeks of teasing the move, the James Storm heel turn has finally happened. Impact Wrestling is being taped right now, and the long time TNA star turned on Gunner as he was challenging Brutus Magnus for the world heavyweight championship.
Many are wondering who will be the first opponent for MVP in TNA will be, and it looks like Rockstar Spud has been given that honor. Earlier today, the two of them filmed a match for the episode of Impact Wrestling set to air on February 13.

Christopher Hitchens responds brilliantly in his own inimitable style to a "truther's" attempt to hijack a debate about God. Full debate: http://vimeo.com/26...
Tags: 9/11, Christopher, Hitchens, truth, truthers
unfortunately that's also how my religious grandmother would respond to me if i ever tried explaining something such as evolution to her
I consider myself an agnostic truther, lol. That is I am 75% convinced that the twin towers were brought down by controlled demolition and that powerful and rich men either knew about it or had a hand in it. After reviewing the evidence and the many coincidences I had to admit that there was something really fishy about the whole incident. Eventually more and more pieces of the puzzle came together and I am now a believer. I think that everyone is too afraid to believe that our own government could have done something against it's own people. It's happened throughout history and there is no reason to think that it wouldn't' happen again. There are so many red flags that I could not ignore mysterious deaths, billions of dollars being made, the obvious perfect falling of the towers, the lists of engineers, physicist, architects etc. that claim it was not possible for the towers to have fallen down as they did without controlled demolition. Larry Silverstein making a heafty 7 billion from some 10 million investment and so many other things.
Other countries believe that it was our own government, I don't see why we think that it is impossible for this to happen. In fact, it has been considered before in recent history:
I'm an agnostic atheist & a fan of Hitchens. But he tends to be hard-headed & pompous. In this discussion he shows himself as a complete hypocrite. As a skeptic I investigate research analyze all information before I reach conclusion or claim that someone is wrong. I require investigation before I reach a definite conclusion. He wont let this man speak but cuts him off which is not the way of a true scientist. He proves himself arrogant and closed minded quite like the theist he often ridicules for the same thing. Dawkins takes the time to debate not berate people even those with the most ludicrous beliefs. Had Hitchens taken the time to actually listen to the evidence and have a good old fashion debate he might realize that what he believed might be false. Just be cause someone is an atheist doesn't mean that they aren't closed-minded. In fact many atheist are very closed minded when it comes to certain things. Hitchens is not a scientist which means that he doesn't necessarily have the scientific method or mentality.
It has been investigated over and over...and these loons come and interrupt every event, whether it is Hitchens or Bill Maher - in fact, Bill Maher had to throw these loons off of his show for their disrupting and childlike tactics. Hitchens was exactly right in his response - you don't allow irrationalists posing as "rational" to have the same floor as you, in particular when they have ZERO evidence from a single respectable scientist. 9/11 is not an event Al Qaeda or Bin Laden ever denied or denies - in fact, they gloat about it and use it as a "glory" of their jihad. It is undeniable, just like the Holocaust. You have an ally in your 9/11 truthers campaign (along with Holocaust denying) in Ahmadenijad. What a great leader in the 9/11 truthers movement.
As Richard Dawkins has said, "Be open minded, but not so open minded where your brains fall out"
Have you taken the time to really investigate it? I thought that the truthers were 'morons' before I took the time to do thorough research myself. Up until about 4 months ago I thought it was all bs too. The media will do all it can to hide the truth. The perfect example of this was the recent protest on Wallstreet that as ignored by the mainstream media. CNN even criticized the protesters with sarcasm as being 'overeducated, young, and unemployed'. I have learned to think for myself and to research and not trust anyone since I left my cult years ago. This world is not a place where truth is easily found, it has to be sought after. You have to use your own critical thinking skills instead of thinking with your emotions. I'm a skeptic and sometimes it really sucks to see how awful humans can be to one another, but I refuse to swallow the blue pill, I took the red pill nearly 10 years ago and now there is no going back.
Yes I have. There is absolutely no scientific evidence. One must study science to a slight degree so one is not fooled by pseudo-science. In addition, this is not something that is even in dispute in the Islamic fanatical world - 9/11 is something they are very much proud of.

The following is an excerpt from a recent post on the Orlando Sentinel's "Theme Park Rangers" blog. Link to the full post follows. It just seemed like it belonged here.
Orlando Sentinel - Theme park quips and quick hits byGive her Space. Speaking of Epcot, while waiting to load at Mission: Space last week, my capsule was to include a little girl who, frankly, was freaking out. The pre-show can be intense for young and old. There were tears. One of the cast members was great with the kid, squatting down to her eye level and, in a comforting tone, asking her questions such as "Why are you afraid?" and eventually "Would you rather not ride? We can wait over here." She bailed, but she felt OK about it. So here is my first Theme Park Rangers Salute -- to a cast member wearing a "Christopher" name tag. We should all be so nice. I'll try to remember that next time a mom runs a double-wide stroller up my calf.

The U.S. Speedskating and Under Armour announced that they have renewed their partnership through the 2022 Olympic Games. The deal comes on the heels of a public flap over new Under Armour skinsuits that divided the team in Sochi. Photo: Getty

More quote details and news » renewed a partnership through the 2022 Olympic Games on the heels of a public flap over the sportswear maker's skinsuits that divided the team and underpinned its disastrous performance here.
U.S. Speedskating Executive Director Ted Morris said in an email to athletes, "they will not retreat from supporting USS despite the challenges we've gone through together." An existing sponsorship contract had been due to expire this year.
Controversial new Under Armour skin suits played a role in the unraveling of the U.S. speedskating team at Sochi, where American skaters failed to win an Olympic medal for the first time since the 1984 Games. Speedskating officials said earlier on Friday they worried that the performance would end the relationship with Under Armour.
"We were not that optimistic, to be honest," Mr. Morris said. "When you look at how things transpired, it's tough to imagine any company saying, 'We want to stick with these guys.' From our standpoint, that was hard to fathom."
Shani Davis has the lead of Team USA followed by Brian Hansen, Joey Mantia and Jonathan Kuck during a training session in the team pursuit at the Adler Arena at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Games, Sochi, Russia, Thursday. European Pressphoto Agency
A spokeswoman for Baltimore-based Under Armour confirmed the deal, but the terms weren't immediately known Friday. Chief Executive Kevin Plank was unavailable to comment, the spokeswoman said.
Shares of Under Armour were up 5.3% at $112.83 in recent trading. The stock took a 2.4% hit on Feb. 14, when news of the team's concerns was initially reported by The Wall Street Journal.
The team arrived in Sochi with gold-medal favorites in several events. But after stars such as Shani Davis and Heather Richardson failed to approach the podium, suspicion fell on a high-tech skinsuit developed specifically for these Games by Baltimore-based Under Armour. Several skaters believed that the suit, known as the Mach 39, had design flaws that were increasing drag and slowing them down.
Under Armour stood by the suits, yet the team elected to revert to a previous design, also manufactured by the company. The debate culminated in a series of tense meetings last Friday and a late-night appeal to skating and Olympic authorities to approve the switch.
But when results didn't improve, skaters said that the dispute and uncertainty within the squad had been too much of a distraction to perform at the highest level.
Under Armour, a maker of sports apparel and footwear with annual revenue of $2.3 billion, had targeted a partnership with U.S. Speedskating as a means of raising brand awareness and credibility overseas. Only 6% of its business is conducted outside North America, according to regulatory filings.
"It's a nice gesture from Under Armour," Mr. Davis said. "Clearly, they can put a lot of time, money and energy into other things, but they're choosing speedskating."
The company also has contracts with the U.S. Bobsled and Skeleton Federation and USA Gymnastics, as well as the Canadian snowboarding team. Under Armour has a number of endorsement deals with college athletic programs, including Auburn University, the University of Maryland and Notre Dame, as well as individual marketing contracts with New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps.
Endorsement deals of Olympic sports teams typically don't translate directly into revenue gains, but are considered a low-cost play for global brand exposure.
The signing of the deal should take some pressure off the U.S. Speedskating federation, which in recent years has been hoping to improve and diversify its funding, the majority of which comes from the U.S. Olympic Committee.
USOC Chief Executive Scott Blackmun issued a statement on Tuesday, saying that while the organization is disappointed in the dearth of speedskating medals, "we will leave no stone unturned when we analyze Sochi results, [and] based on current information, we do not believe the suits were the problem."
Both the company and U.S. Speedskating have gone on the defensive in recent days. Officials at the sports federation disseminated at least two emails offering "talking points" to athletes. Those emails, reviewed by the Journal, urged the skaters to emphasize the positive aspects of the relationship between the team and Under Armour when speaking with media.
The company, for its part, has denied that the Mach 39 skin suits inhibited performance, suggesting other factors may have played a role in the team's medal-less appearance in Sochi.
Morris, the federation's executive director, didn't know what the long-term plan was for the Mach 39s after the Olympics. The schedule still includes two World Cup events and the World All-Round Speed Skating Championships in Germany and the Netherlands next month. Skater Brittany Bowe said she assumed they would continue wearing the older models for the rest of the season.
The team still had an outside shot at a medal going into Friday's competition, but a disastrous team pursuit for the men ensured they would finish in the bottom two. The women's team-pursuit squad also lost its heat, but posted a time that guarantees it will finish no worse than sixth when competition concludes on Saturday. That will stand as the best U.S. speed skating result at these Games, since none of the other events saw an American finish above seventh place.
"I don't know whether to laugh or cry about that," skater Jilleane Rookard said.
Throughout the Olympics, the U.S. team speculated that their underperformance might also be tied to other factors, from ice conditions to pre-Games training decisions. And as the team evaluates what went wrong, Mr. Davis said, nothing can be counted out.
"We have to destroy and rebuild," Davis said. "We have to start from ground zero and build up again if we're going to continue on to 2018."

NewsCops called to impaired Ferry passengers
Tuesday, June 12, 2012 - 11:39 AM
With summer soon upon us, BC Ferries is reminding customers about its policy of zero tolerance for drinking and driving.
The consumption of drugs and alcohol is prohibited on ships and at terminals.
There have been six separate incidents over the past several days alone where it was necessary for the police to attend.
"Safety is BC Ferries' number one priority and that includes the sobriety of motorists on our property," said Mike Corrigan, BC Ferries' President and CEO. "We have a zero tolerance policy for passengers under the influence of drugs or alcohol and the unacceptable behaviour that can be associated with impairment."
BC Ferries takes reports of persons suspected of operating their vehicles on its property while under the influence seriously and works with local police to bring the offence to the attention of the authorities.
For everyone's safety, BC Ferries encourages customers who witness the consumption of drugs or alcohol to report it to a BC Ferries employee.
Like the roadways, it's against the law to operate a motor vehicle on BC Ferries' ships or at its terminals while under the influence. For the safety of all customers and crew, the prevention of crashes and deaths due to drinking and driving is very important to BC Ferries not only during the summer holidays but all year long.

Born on October 8, 1980, in San Diego, California, Nick Cannon has taken on almost every facet of show business. He's acted, done stand-up, hosted television and radio programs, made music and has written, directed and produced entertainment projects. Most recently, Cannon became host of the TV reality competition America's Got Talent while juggling his family life with wife Mariah Carey and their twins.
"I even got a chance to see a different side of my wife where she became so nurturing."
Early Life
Nicholas Scott Cannon was born on October 8, 1980, in San Diego, California, to parents James Cannon, a televangelist, and Beth Hackett, an accountant. His parents separated when he was young, so he grew up shuttling between California and North Carolina. At the age of 8, Nick Cannon got the performance bug after his grandfather gave him several musical instruments. Soon after, he switched from music to doing stand-up comedy when he was invited to perform on his father's public access show. It wasn't long before a teenage Cannon was working well-known comedy clubs.
TV and Film Career
The rising star's big break came when warming up audiences on Nickelodeon's All That. The producers, recognizing Cannon's talent and appeal, put him on camera as a cast regular and a writer. At age 17, he became the youngest staff writer in television history for his work on the young sketch comedy series. Before he knew it, he was directing, producing and starring in Nickelodeon's The Nick Cannon Show before moving onto MTV's improv series, Nick Cannon Presents Wild 'N Out. The latter series, running from 2005 to '07, was one of MTV's most successful. The series has since returned to the small screen in 2013 on MTV2. Cannon also joined the cast of America's Got Talent as host in 2009.
The actor transitioned into movies, earning a small appearance in Men in Black II in 2002. That same year, Cannon got his first lead role in a film, starring as Devon Miles in Drumline. Other flicks followed, including Shall We Dance (2004), Roll Bounce (2005) and Bobby (2006). His role in Bobby not only earned Cannon a nod from the Screen Actors Guild in 2007, and he was the first African American to be honored with the Breakthrough Actor of the Year Award at the Cannes Film Festival.
Music Career
While establishing his acting career, Cannon released a self-titled album in 2003. He's also collaborated with other big names on various music projects, including Kanye West, P. Diddy, Mary J. Blige and R. Kelly. Because of his strong musical ties, he was a natural as host of the nationally syndicated radio show Cannon's Countdown. After the radio show's premiere in 2011, Cannon decided to leave the Top 40 countdown two years down the line.
Business and Charity
On top of entertaining, Cannon is involved in several entrepreneurial and charitable endeavors. He runs the multimedia company NCcredible Entertainment, which launches TV, film, music and merchandising projects. Cannon also serves as CEO of the teen magazine Celebrity High and chairman of the TeenNick network.

The chile craftsmen at Fabiola's Restaurant LLC launch taste buds across the Rio Grande with a menu of authentic south-of-the-border dishes. Before dashing off on digestion races, diners can warm up mouth-muscles by yodeling the contents of a phone book or noshing on a piquant platter of fajita nachos ($7.45–$8.45). Main culinary events include the chile relleno, a deep-fried poblano pepper stuffed with cheese before passing out on a bed of corn or flour tortillas ($9.45). A half-pound burger ($6.95) fuses Latin and gringo flavors with a harmonious union of beef, jalapeños, and guacamole, and Maria's especial ($11.95) showcases carne asada, grilled onions, and bell peppers flanked by an entourage of rice, beans, and guacamole. For indulgent finales, dessert-smiths demonstrate culinary prowess by frying up ice cream, which is the second most challenging item to introduce to hot oil after socially awkward snowmen ($4.49).
Make & Take Meals provides a space for busy cooks to assemble and customize simple, pre-prepared meals chosen from a menu stocked with hearty freezable entrees that feed about six. Select the entrees you would like and schedule a time to come in and prepare your meals. A staff member will show you to your first prep station, where all the necessary ingredients, already chopped and prepped, are laid out, waiting for assembly like a tastier, less sassy version of Mr. Potato Head. The menu rotates monthly, but recent items include a chicken almond bake ($25, $13 for half), a casserole of tender chicken chunks in a velvety alfredo-white-wine sauce mingled with rice, celery, and onion and crowned by parmesan cheese and almonds. House favorites include calzones ($24, $12 for half) and chicken enchiladas ($24, $12 for half). After assembling the meal and customizing it to your tongue papillae preferences, make like a housecat and leave the cleanup to the in-house staff.
At Sirens & Sailors Salon, master stylist Maria Mistretta crafts edgy and retro 'dos with the help of products from MoroccanOil and L'Oréal. In addition to traditional haircuts, coloring, and highlights, Maria slices strands with razors and sculpts fauxhawks out of real imitation hawks. Ever the versatile stylist, she also installs feather extensions, flattens tresses with keratin treatments, and sets the stage for shotgun weddings with anytime updos. When not revamping coifs, she extracts unwanted facial fuzz with warm wax and keeps the salon's shelves stocked with jewelry and chic Lux De Ville handbags.
Kumeo Komazaki, known to friends as "Koma", relocated to New York City from Japan 30 years ago, bringing with him the culinary skills he learned as a chef for Japan's Imperial Palace Hotel. While working as a chef in New York, Komazaki happened to read the address on a box of beef shipped from Wichita, then seized the opportunity to establish his own restaurant there. At the Wichita location and its sister restaurants in St. Louis and Omaha, chefs entertain diners as they prepare steaks, seafood, and chicken at teppanyaki tables, flipping sizzling victuals through the air and searing meat to perfection. Sushi chefs roll and slice fresh seafood into bite-size pieces, which can be brought to mouths with chopsticks or hunger-induced telekinesis.
Neon beer signs cast blue, green, and red light across the black ceiling, and tables populate with okra, mushrooms, and cauliflower starters—all deep fried to a golden crunch. An enormous projection TV broadcasts the latest game amid the pulse of a jukebox, and several flat screens promote revelry at the weathered wooden bar.
For more than 20 years, this casual sports bar has unleashed its signature third-pound burgers on Derby, topping them with everything from whole grilled-cheese sandwiches to chili and nacho cheese. After two-handing hot dogs or brisket sandwiches, guests can test their motor skills with the bar's free Xbox 360 with Kinect game base, or improve their coolness quotient by ordering the trendiest new summer drink: water on the rocks.
A mural of a wheat field is frozen on the wall of Wheat State Pizza, where chefs hand-toss pizza crusts made with whole wheat as well as white and gluten-free pizza disks. With 35 different toppings to choose from, diners may customize pies like a bejeweled jean jacket, or opt for signature combinations such as the pad thai with peanut sauce, sesame oil, siracha sauce, and crushed peanuts. Barbecued-beef sandwiches and custom calzones round out the menu, and dessert pizzas with blueberry-pie filling, cream cheese, and streusel topping cap off meals. Wheat State Pizza also offers an outdoor patio with umbrella-topped tables for alfresco dining.

I was a little iffy about posting this here since I was looking through the rules and saw there was only one NC-17 fic under the "Can we have an Adult Archive?" section. This made me very sad, but I don't feel like this is far enough to warrant NC-17, but then again I have been wrong before. If I offend, please forgive. I will take the story down if it goes too far, or perhaps edit it to be far more suitable for the children's eyes. But if it is okay, I hope you enjoy it and comment and let me know what you think.
Jessie was horribly, horribly ill. While she wasn't sure she would die from the sickness, she knew she would prefer it in such a moment as this. And in her defense, such moments could not come all too often.
"Ohhhhhh…you still smell like him," Jessie sighed into James's shirt.
It had hit her like a thunderbolt the moment she stuck her shivering toes out of the shower. He had left his shirt. She should have been mad or at the very least annoyed, but her brain began a game of connect-the-dots and imagined said shirt the moment it was thrown off of James's thin chest. She frowned at the image. It was nice. Too nice.
Huffing, Jessie threw down the offending garment and leaned her nude form against the doorway.
"Jessie?" a voice cried from the other side. "Are you okay? I thought I heard you say something."
"I'm fine!" she shouted, crinkling her fingers into her hair.
James went silent and Jessie shook her head. The thought of James padding about the single bedroom of the cabin had her woozy and she shimmied into her clothes with her body still wet. Her nightshirt clutched her breasts and she cursed before throwing an arm in front of her. Luckily for her, the night switch clicked off outside the bathroom door as she picked up her sopping towels and laid them in the hamper.
Upon entering the bedroom, Jessie immediately focused on her partner, who was throwing back the covers from the bed and scratching his head absently. The sickness came back with a vengeance. She barely registered Meowth seated in front of the TV with the game controls whipping about furiously in his paws. The room spun and spun until she thought she would fall flat on her face before reaching her side of the bed.
"Aren't you going to get your hair cap, Jessie?"
"I'm really tired," she said, plopping onto the bed and nuzzling her dripping nose into her pillow.
James frowned. "But what if it touches me during the night? It'll be slimy and wet and sticky and…"
"I'm not wearing it, James."
Sighing a displeased sigh, James moved under the covers. "Meowth? Are you coming to bed?"
"Gimme a few more minutes, Jimmy," he said, scooting closer to the screen. "I almost got a new high score!"
James chuckled and shifted until his blue pajama bottoms were barely visible in the moonlight. He was wearing a black shirt identical to the one lying forgotten in the bathroom and Jessie licked her lips. Did he always wear black to bed? More importantly, did she always notice?
"I think we were really close to catching that Pikachu today, don't you?"
"Yeah…close…" mumbled Jessie, still enamored with the feel of the pillow on her face.
"If we wake up early and make a few adjustments to the machine, we'll be sure to capture the rodent!"
"Mmhmm," she replied.
"Good. I'm glad we're on the same page. By the way, that was a really great escape today. If it wasn't for you, we probably would have been blasting off again."
Oh God, oh God, oh God. All the nausea in the world suddenly smacked her stomach and she shifted so that her back was to her partner in order to hide the warmth in her cheeks.
"Jessie? A-Are you going to sleep? Without a goodnight?"
Fury rose in her chest like a Fire Blast. "Goodnight, James," she said shortly.
The hand on her upper arm made her shiver almost as much as James's soft voice. "Goodnight, Jessie. Sleep tight!"
She sat there in boiling silence as James shifted to a more comfortable position on his back. Thank Arceus, Jessie thought, licking the water drops off of her lips. Surely sleep will cure this cancer of the heart.
With a triumphant grin, she closed her eyes and laid there in the darkness listening to Meowth huff and curse at the television screen. A moment passed and then another before the feeling of queasiness that had attacked her settled at the very top of her stomach and her heart sank.
"Ten minutes," she told herself, reverting back to a childhood trick she would use when sleep escaped her. "Ten minutes and I'll be out like a light."
Ten minutes came and passed without Jessie's knowledge. Meowth threw his game controller on the floor with a frustrated whimper that made James's sleeping form jump. It was only when their beloved scratch cat turned his game off that Jessie heard the unmistakable voices of the renowned Pokemon Midnight that the hour hit her and she shuddered. Unless a rouge Drowzee hurdled through their windows and attacked her in the heat of the night, sleep would not come any time soon.
Meowth's feet slapped the floor all the way toward the bed and he let out an umph as he climbed up and onto the sheets. Feigning sleep, Jessie could not help but smile when he found a small clearing between his partners bodies and curled there as best he could with his odd limbs and his burning ego. Not a second had went by before she heard him snoring and her left eye began to twitch. If there was one thing her sick-laden mind had in common with her normal, devil-may-care mind, it was that James was the perfect sleeping partner. She had never heard more than a soft sigh leave his lips as he slept, no matter the angle or absence of comfort.
All thoughts of a good night's rest firmly destroyed, Jessie turned her head to eye her sleeping partner. James was sleeping soundly beside her with one hand at his chest and the other loosely holding the covers over his body. His mouth hung open, which Jessie should have found humorous. Due to her illness, however, she could only marvel at the roundness in his lips and wonder if he had ever been kissed before. She supposed having one's first true love turn out to be a dominatrix might have soured his views on women and kissing altogether, though she had never heard him speak of any other such romantic encounter to build her knowledge. Whatever the case was, James had undeniably kissable lips though his chin was far too pointed to provide a canvass for easy movement during make-out sessions. The thought that her sickness was back with a vengeance led her to sigh in defeat and shift ever so carefully so that a single arm could prop up her own chin.
"I don't like you," she said, not believing her own lies. "You're too skinny and too whiney and you always smell like girly shampoo."
James's sleeping form offered no protest to Jessie's accusations and she grew angry, though she would have been far angrier if he had shifted or blinked or breathed too hard.
"Why don't you go back to your fiancé? You could be rich! Gods above, you could be so stinkin' rich and it isn't even funny. I'd give up my freedom for that. I'd give it up right now if I had a chance."
A loud snort came from Meowth as if in agreement and Jessie's face turned hard and mean.
"What's wrong with you? Who takes the long road when there is a short one just sitting there for the taking? You could leave at any time…you could go and get married and get people like me to steal Pokemon for you. Yet you're here and…and so delectable I could melt. Damn you to Hades and back!"
She swore she saw his fingers twitch and fell silent for a long while before more words came bubbling to the surface from some God forsaken pit in the recesses of her hardened heart.
"Has no one ever told you it's not fashionable to wear pants that are so tight that anyone can make out the dimples on your bottom? And a cardinal sin to be too loose in the front?" She fell silent before shuddering. "Arceus. Strike me down now."
If Arceus had telepathy, Jessie would have wondered right then and there if the Pokemon had serious issues, for the insane, cancer-driven thoughts came to a head as James's face scrunched up and his right hand went down to push the offensive covers off his lithe body. He wore pajama bottoms that were far too big for him that had been yanked all the way past his belly button leaving minimal room for his most precious cargo. It was then and only then that her fingers itched to rectify James's heinous crime against fashion and settle his pants to his hips. Yes. That was it. Just fixing a problem like a good partner should.
With such a comforting lie, Jessie's hand sealed its fate by inching toward James like an Ekans on the hunt. When her fingers landed on his belly, she let out a sigh she hadn't been aware she'd been holding. She could feel water from her hand seep into his shirt and her heart raced. A few moments of Meowth's gargling passed before she allowed her hand to head south ever so slowly toward the end of James's shirt. When she reached her destination, she paused at the thought of her fingers being so close to her best friend's manhood. She bit her lower lip and closed her eyes before raising the shirt to sit mere inches from its original resting spot.
"That won't do, Jessie," she said to herself, shaking her slightly dried head. "If you start the battle, you gotta finish it out."
Nodding to herself to gather her courage, she reached over to her partner's side to pull up his shirt over his pants to finally reveal his pale skin that shone in the moonlight like the coin on Meowth's head. Letting the pad of her pointer finger graze the skin, Jessie closed her eyes and reveled in the warmth radiating from the body beside her. But the fire would not be quenched. Shifting her attention back to the offending pajama bottoms, she tugged and tugged until James's stomach laid half bare beneath his slanting sleepwear.
Dying a little inside at the inappropriateness of it all and urging herself forward in the name of fashion, she worked on the other side of the pajamas until resting the garment on their owner's bony hips. The entire time she kept a close watch of James's face and each time an inch of skin was revealed without consequence, her heart did a backflip. It was all so naughty and nasty and nice and it made her feel truly wicked to be undressing the man who had so often thrown barbs at her defenses and brought her insecurities crashing down at her feet. She needed him. That much she knew. But when she saw the love in his eyes rest on her before shifting confidently and calmly to Meowth, she buried her heart a little deeper inside. That is where it became sick, she reasoned, eyeing her partner before slipping her well-manicured fingers down his pajama bottoms. I drove it down so deep that it had no choice but to bob up and choke all of my intelligence away. But it's just this once…only this once…
His body was made of flesh stretched taunt and smooth against his bones and though the angle was off and a crick was quickly growing in her elbow, Jessie knew she could spend all of eternity exploring James's body. Such a medicine would surely cure her wandering hand and soothe the burning in her core. Her head ached with questions barreling back and forth in swift succession. Does all of him feel like this? Would he hate me if he knew? Would he run away? Does he shave…
"No," Jessie whispered as her fingers were greeted by a gritty mat of hair. The sound, healthy part of her mind cried out for James's innocence, but she was too far gone to take note. For a brief and horrifying moment, reality came crashing in on her with all the implications of her situation and all the nights she would have to spend ever after with this man who she had so severely violated. But the moment was brief and the sickness was strong. Her head feeling weightless and her arms shaking with a need she did not know had ever existed, Jessie allowed her hand to surface before yanking down the pajamas once and for all.
"Ughn…" she said aloud, letting the hand exposing her partner tremble. She was completely enthralled and utterly ignorant of her surroundings. His hair was blue and his member was long and he was there right in front of her unknowingly providing her with an image her mind could never erase. She stared and she dared to let her thumb run across the velvety skin topping the head of his penis. For the first time, the illness racked her entire body with a want and a need. She would never be rid of it…this desire to be fulfilled by the silly, feminine man with whom she could entrust her very being. She stifled a sob.
With large, dashing eyes, she looked up at him and felt her heart grow cold. Green orbs stared silently into her very soul.
"Jess…what…what are you…"
Her hand flew up and his pants fell down with a pop that made Meowth awaken in a groggy yet grumpy stupor. "Shaddup! I'm tryanah catch some zah….some zs here…"
Both trainers were silent as Meowth wandered back into slumber, but neither could be still. Jessie flipped her body so that her back was facing her partner and she felt terror clutch her throat as she felt James's side of the bed shift behind her. She heard a noise attempt to crawl from his throat that was stifled at the sound of Meowth's snores.
The three laid there for quite a while in such a position until James's body relaxed and Jessie closed her eyes against the hot tears crawling down her face. She attempted to breathe as if she were in a deep and wakeless sleep and after a while she felt the exhaustion enter her bones. It was in the last of her waking moments and in the stillest minute of the night that James spoke with a voice that was husky and low and led her into dreams of a white tomorrow.
"Looks like Team Rocket is jerking off again."
She never was cured of her disease.
