Our patented Active Braking Pivot allows your suspension to work freely whether you're on the brakes or off. It's smooth, controlled suspension that's at its best all the time.
With DRCV, you can have it all: supple small-bump feel, great pedalling efficiency, and seemingly bottomless travel for the big stuff.
Trek's premium alloy, formed into sophisticated tube shapes for maximum strength and minimum weight.
Our exclusive system connects the main frame to the rear triangle with a one-piece rocker link, creating a stiffer frame for greater control with minimal weight.
We attach the shock to two moving linkage points for greater response over a wide variety of terrain. It feels like more travel, but it's not. It's smarter travel.
E2 tapers from a 1.5" lower to a 1-1/8" upper, placing more material where it matters most for the stiffness of a full 1.5" system without the added weight.
Frame is prepped for internal routing if you decide to add a remotely adjustable seat post.
Route your derailleur cables through the frame to keep your bike running smooth and clean.
Fine tune head tube angle by 1/2° and BB height by up to 10mm with the simple turn of a nut. A Trek exclusive.
A 15mm front thru axle makes steering more precise for more control, and the quick-release feature makes wheel removal easy.
A 10-speed cassette and 2-ring crankset deliver a full range of usable gears, with less weight and easier, smoother gear shifting.
34mm fork stanchions are more robust than their 32mm counterparts. They offer stiffer, more confident suspension performance when chewing through big, technical terrain.
Derailleur attaches directly to the frame for accurate gear shifting in a lightweight, minimal package.
International Standard Chain-Guide mounts offer easy chain-guide installation and adjustment.
Post mounting is the simplest, most efficient way to mount a brake caliper to your bike. Functions brilliantly, reduces weight.
Press-fit BB increases pedalling efficiency and allows for a stronger, stiffer frame structure.
650b is the newest MTB wheel size. It falls between 26" and 29er, but closer to 26". It rides and behaves much like a 26" wheel, with a little more stability and speed.
Model availability varies by country.
You may compare up to three bike models.

Absolute Towing was vandalized over the weekend, and the cost of the damage is reported to be $15,000.
Twelve thousand dollars of that damage is Mitchell Scott's BMW, and he says the towing company said he is responsible for the damage. His car was towed after he was pulled over for expired tags on his BMW.
Mitchell Scott spoke to News Channel 25's Markeya Thomas about the condition in which he found his vehicle.
"All the windows was busted out. They used a jack, and used coil from a car thrown into the window," said Scott. "Big cement blocks thrown into the windshield. They did a lot of body damage."
Scott says not only did Absolute Towing tell him he was responsible for the vehicle damage, but also for replacing his keys that were missing out of the lock box.
"They had the keys in the yard, unattended, in like a lock box, just in the yard so… I can't get my keys out, so where is my key? You're not going to replace that? He said no I have to go to the BMW dealer and pay for it myself," explained Scott.
Scott bought the car less than a month ago, and is shocked that his car is ruined.
Detectives refuse to let him retrieve his vehicle because the incident is under investigation. Recently, he received a statement from the towing company saying he owes $200, although he came to retrieve the car within their three-day policy.
News Channel 25 spoke to both to Copperas Cove Police Department and Absolute Towing, and they were unable to comment since this case is still under investigation.

Retired Springfield educator Chris Williams remembers cringing whenever she saw perfectly good classroom materials tossed into the Dumpster.
"I was in a K-to-5 building and a preK-to-1 building, and materials were just discarded when people left or whenever a new publisher came on board and we wanted to get rid of the old materials," Williams recalled.
After seeing a television news story about a Florida school district that took in donated pens, notebooks and other materials from businesses to make them available to teachers for free, Williams thought that Springfield should do not just the same, but better.
Williams and the rest of the Springfield Education Association's Committee of Retired Teachers added the important component of recycling, diverting usable materials – both purchased and homemade – from the Dumpster and getting them into the hands of teachers.
The Tools 4 Teaching "store" opened on Sept. 19, stocked with books, posters, markers, construction paper and the like, all donated by local businesses or teachers who had retired or were taking on new assignments where they would no longer need the accumulated materials.
A group called Springfield School Volunteers is facilitating business and corporate donations to Tools 4 Teaching so the donors can take advantage of that group's 501 (c)(3) nonprofit status at tax time. The Springfield Teachers Credit Union and Mass Mutual Financial Group have already sent in items, some surplus and some left over from conferences and seminars, according to Denise Cogman of Springfield School Volunteers.
Teachers can also procure classroom furniture stored at the Neal building.
Members of the SEA Committee of Retired Teachers staff the store on the second Thursday afternoon of each month to collect materials, and on the third Thursday afternoon of each month to be open for "shoppers." As long as the "shoppers" have a Springfield school employee ID, the Tools 4 Teachers merchandise is free.
Committee members involved in the project include Chris Williams, Ronnie Tillman, Patricia Sullivan, Mary Scherpa, Nancy Meyer, Gail Healey, Jean Haley, and Sue Fielding.
Questions about donations can be sent to Williams via email at email@example.com.

British Airways: Has refused to let 22-year-old Kevin Chenais to board a plane to England because of his weight. Photo: Reuters
A young Frenchman deemed too heavy to fly on a jetliner has arrived in New York to head home by ship.
Kevin Chenais, who weighs 230 kilograms, arrived with his parents on Tuesday at Penn Station in New York by train from Chicago. They will stay at a hotel in Brooklyn until they catch the Queen Mary 2 for England.
Chenais, 22, has a hormone imbalance and came to the US from France in 2012 for obesity treatment at the Mayo Clinic in Chicago.
He had planned to fly home in late October, but British Airways refused to let him board the plane on the grounds he was too fat.
The family spent more than a week at a hotel near Chicago airport as they tried to resolve the situation.
On Monday, they decided to take a train to New York, from where they will sail for England on November 19.
"It is mainly my parents who are angry," he told reporters, looking tired after the 19-hour train trip from Chicago.
His father, Rene, criticised British Airways for paying for just five nights in a hotel, where in the end they spent 13 days. He said the carrier has yet to refund their tickets.
An airline spokesman said the carrier tried to find a solution but in the end it was not possible to tend to Mr Chenais safely.
Mr Chenais needs oxygen constantly and medical oversight, so the week-long trip from New York to Southampton will not be easy.
He has mobility problems and gets around in an electric-powered wheelchair.
As he arrived in New York, with the help of the French consulate, police and staff from the rail company Amtrak helped him off the train and out of the station.
On Tuesday, his father said that two or three days after British Airways refused to let him fly, their travel agent had said Air France and Swissair were willing to take him. But the family was out of money.
"We paid $1200 for the train and then $2000 for the ship. We cannot pay any more," Rene Chenais said.
He added he was considering legal action against British Airways.
"For now Kevin has to hang in there. We are going to try to visit New York a bit and disconnect."
A doctor will examine Mr Chenais in the coming days and staff on the Queen Mary 2 have been friendly, his father said.

For serious gardeners, there are many useful and appreciated items you can put under the Christmas tree or wrap up for any other gift-giving opportunity.
Here are some suggestions:
• Clip and cut: Made in Switzerland, Felco pruning shears are precision ergonomic instruments that are easy to use and have replacement parts available so they can last a lifetime. A good place to start shopping is at felco.com where they offer a handy comparison chart of models.
If you don't know specifics about the gardener on your list, you might opt for the Felco 2, a one-handed pruner (about $55) that is the most popular model the company makes. However, there are over 50 models to choose from with most priced $30 to $70.
• Protection from the elements: While working outdoors, a gardener may encounter mosquitoes, sun and thorns like the nasty ones on bougainvillea. The best protection is a long-sleeved shirt that blocks the sun's rays with an SPF of 30 or more. It's also good if that shirt is made from cloth that wicks moisture and provides bug repellency. Columbia Sportswear Co. makes such shirts for men and women priced at about $85 for its Omni-Shade sun protection line (www.columbia.com).
If you are looking for something less expensive to stick in a stocking, you might opt for a tube or bottle of sun protector with an SPF ranging from 30 to 100. Look for a water-resistant, full-spectrum one that gives maximum protection.
And don't forget a tube of sun-protecting lip balm that can be tucked into a stocking along with a can or bottle of bug repellant.
Work gloves are another piece of protective gear that every gardener appreciates and needs. But don't spend your money on those colorful cotton ones with daisies and frogs printed on them.
Instead, go for the ones made of leather or other heavy material that can really protect the hands from thorns and other irritants. Make sure the gloves are sized right so they aren't bulky and the gardener can get a grip on those weeds.
• Personal grooming: Even if gardeners wear gloves, they are going to get their hands dirty. That's why a fingernail brush tucked into a Christmas stocking is a good idea. Try pairing it with a good bar of hand soap.
• Make it a wet one: Gardeners know that now we are in the dry season, they will probably have to hand water some of their plants — especially the new additions. That's when a good, functional watering can comes in handy. Sure there are cleverly shaped and colored ones. But I recommend a 2-gallon plastic one without bells and whistles.
What's important is that it holds enough water so it doesn't have to be refilled often but it's not too heavy to carry. Check out the one from Southern Patio that has an easily accessible fill hole not blocked by the handle. Fiskars also has a can with a large fill hole that makes it easy to add liquid fertilizer or drenches. You'll find many models priced under $10.
A rain gauge measures how much water your garden has received and helps you decide how much you have to supplement with your sprinklers.
A rain gauge can be as simple or artistic as you please. I have a rectangular plastic container with a ruler printed on the side (Weather Channel Waterfall Rain Gauge, about $10). It works fine.
Or you can opt for one like the World's Coolest Rain Gauge (about $45 from worldscoolestraingauge.com) with its attractive blue floating polycarbonate container, solid copper flute and powder-coated steel stake for long life.
• Dig it: A seasoned gardener can always use a transplanting garden trowel. Its long, narrow blade is designed to dig deeply in order to get all the roots. It also comes in handy for reaching into small places. You'll find a good selection priced from $20 to $50.
And because you usually need to be on your knees to use a trowel, a foam kneeling mat is also appreciated ($10 to $35).
• For the birds: One of the biggest benefits of gardening is the wildlife you'll attract. Sure the birds can feed off of nature but sometimes it's fun to be able to watch them as they chow down from a well-placed bird feeder.
I highly recommend the Squirrel-Resistant Caged Tube Feeder by Audubon ($49.99). It's a metal cage around a plastic tube filled with seed. The cage keeps squirrels and larger birds such as doves, grackles and pigeons away from the food. But it lets painted buntings, finches and even cardinals into the feast.
This time of year you might also want to give your gardener a hummingbird feeder to welcome these tiny visitors. Garden Treasures (about $5) offers one that looks like an inverted test tube with a red plastic base that has a hole in it where the bird sticks its long, thin beak to drink sugar syrup.
Because that sugar syrup can ferment in our Florida heat, it must be either consumed by the birds or changed regularly. That's why I recommend a smaller capacity feeder. The birds empty it relatively quickly and then it can be refilled with fresh syrup so little goes to waste.
And don't bother to buy the red nectar often sold with these feeders. It's easy to make your own by combining one part sugar to four parts water and bringing it to a boil. When it's cooled, the syrup is ready to use. I make a big batch and store it in the refrigerator. You can make a batch to give along with the birdfeeder.
• Don't forget the butterflies: Creating a butterfly garden in South Florida is as easy as planting a few corky-stemmed passionflowers, some wild citrus or Indian blanket and a bit of parsley. Just about any gardener will be happy to receive a pot of these or Florida wildflower seed packets (available from The Garden Gate, $3.49, donnasgardengate.com). You might also provide a guide to butterflies and/or butterfly gardening by visiting www.flmnh.ufl.edu/wildflower/books.asp.
• A no-fail option: After a day spent lifting, dragging, cutting, pulling and otherwise straining, gardeners often are tired and sore. So this holiday season, tuck a gift card for a massage into that Christmas stocking. I can pretty much guarantee it will be appreciated.

The evolution of Assassin's Creed 3's naval battles: the simulation that almost was
Saying Assassin's Creed 3 is a beautiful game is like rooting for the Yankees. Ubisoft has the kind of money, talent, and time many developers and publishers can only dream of, so of course the game looks good in demos. Having said all that…
I had the chance to see a hands-off demo of the game's naval battles during PAX, and the ships, waves, and weather effects all worked together to create something that felt very different than the rest of the game. The naval battles didn't just look good however, as the sense of drama as the great ships sailed past each other, attacking with different kinds of artillery and vying for placement, was impressive.
It turns out the team's first pass at naval battles ended very differently, with slower pacing and a feel that was closer to a simulation. It ultimately didn't fit in with what is essentially an action title, but the story behind the early attempts at naval combat is fascinating.
What almost was
"This is a pivotal moment of American History," Steven Masters, the lead game designer, told me as he sailed his virtual ship through the Battle of Chesapeake Bay. The battle was technically a stalemate, but the tactical victory went to the French. "This is where things really shifted for the success of the revolution," Masters said. "The revolution was basically won through the support of navies."
The first year of Assassin's Creed 3 was largely spent on research, and there's a historian on staff to make sure everything is as close to historically accurate as possible. The team went to Singapore to tour ships, and record the sounds of cannon fire. Since naval battles of the time were ponderous, methodical affairs, I asked Mission Director Philippe Bergeron about the tension between creating an action game, and bringing in a game mode that could have been very slow-paced.
"That's something we went back and forth on. We started out and were a little more simulation oriented," Bergeron explained. "When we got the first build of it, it was stunning, it was a beautiful thing, but when we compared it to the rest of the game it didn't play the same. It felt like a different game. So that's when we decided to go on the other side of the scale and maybe arcade it up." The original "draft" of the naval battles didn't fit with the rest of the Assassin's Creed games in either control or pacing, and they had to rethink what needed to be included for a fun experience.
So what was cut? "We had things like the depth of the water, which wasn't necessarily clear, things like shoals and the really deep water," Bergeron explained. "The visibility on where those things were was a little hard to pull off."
Masters agreed that the simulation aspects had to be toned down for the final version. "The reality of these boats is that it would take around an hour to set the sails. So to simulate that is not fun. It's not an action-oriented experience, it doesn't have the speed and accessibility that Assassin's Creed is known for," he said. "We tried a variety of different tunings for how fast you could set your sails, what it was like to play with the wind, from ultra-realistic where you could capsize the boat and things like that if you were hitting the wrong tack."
"A lot of those [details] were interesting, but they weren't serving our game. We still have a rich tactical landscape, it's fun to play, and there's many options. You have to manage your sails, the wind, and the waves correctly, but we take much of the grunt work and the slowness out of the experience," they explained.
So what's left?
You still have to pay attention to the environment and your options while commanding your ship. With the wind at your back and sails set to full you can move quickly, but you won't be able to turn as fast. You need to pay attention to the timing of the waves to make sure you're not firing into water, and maintain visual line of sight to your target.
The final version of the naval battles are clearly part of an action game, and no one would ever confuse it with a "realistic" version of naval warfare, but you can still select different weapons for your cannon and aim your shots. If you take out the rear of the other ships you can disable their steering. By aiming at the center you try to take out their powder store for a one-shot kill. You can use the chain-shot, which is two cannon balls attached by a chain to rip through their sails and leave them dead in the water.
The water itself is an obstacle. "We use the Beaufort scale to define the intensity of the waves," Masters told me. A level one would be glassy ocean, and a twelve would be sheer walls of water. I saw the game running at a three or four, and they can scale that dynamically to create battles of differing intensities. The waves themselves aren't uniform, so you'll deal with both short and tall waves. "You'll want to be on top of the waves when you're shooting, for maximum range," he said. I'm almost reminded of a slightly slower-paced Wave Race, except with giant jet skis that you can board in order to massacre the other racers.
I didn't get to put my hands on a controller to play the game directly, although I hope that's coming soonish, but even just watching the combat is thrilling. The seas are being used as a dynamic, hostile environment during the naval battles and, even though the pace of the battles were sped up well past what is historically accurate, this type of combat is still very different than what we're used to seeing in video games.
The final concepts behind the naval battles fit the look and feel of Assassin's Creed 3, but a part of me would have loved to try the more simulation-focused version of the battles that was prototyped.

A Perl tool for querying distribution repositories
Analysis Machine
A Perl script calls various plugins that sniff around on FTP and HTTP servers run by the major Linux distributions to discover when Fedora, Debian, and other distros update their packages.
The software in this Perl column is, to some extent, commissioned work: The editors of the German edition, Linux-Magazin, needed a tool that would crawl the update servers of major Linux distributions to find release dates for a cover story. Because Perl has a reputation of being good at complex queries and string manipulation, this article is totally devoted to a tool that supports that topic. The objective was a script that accepts a query passed in at the command line, searches different targets, filters out matching package names, collects the dates, and finally outputs a table with the results.
The difficulty is that Linux distributions offer their release information in different formats. For example, packages for Ubuntu and Debian reside on an FTP server – not all in one directory, but split up into subdirectories whose names consist of the first letter of the package name (Figure 1).

Flood warnings remain in place across Hampshire
1:34pm Friday 14th December 2012 in News
TWO flood warnings remain in place across Hampshire today as torrential downpours and strong winds combined with high tides.
The Environment Agency is urging residents to take action to reduce the impacts of flooding as three flood warnings have been issued for the coast in Hampshire and West Sussex. High tides from mid-morning today, combined with strong winds, are predicted to cause coastal flooding along the south coast.
Heavy showers are forecast across the South East today and the low pressure system is expected to bring wet and stormy conditions to the south coast throughout the day.
Gale force south-easterly winds, large waves, and a moderate storm surge during today and over the weekend, combined with the peak spring tides, is expected to create large waves with some impact from spray or wave overtopping.
The current flood warnings in force are for the coast from Beaulieu to Calshot and The Hamble estuary.
Meanwhile, Grange Road in Netley is flooded, causing problems for motorists.
Parts of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, are also being forecast to receive up 10-20mm of rainfall throughout today, which has the potential to cause minor disruption and lead to possible flood alerts being issued. Isolated areas may receive up to 30mm of rainfall.
The tidal gates in Portsmouth and the Lymington sea wall gates have been closed this morning. The Environment Agency is in close communication with local authorities and emergency services to prepare for any potential impacts as a result of the weather.
Andrew Gilham, Environment Agency Flood and Coastal Risk Manager, said: "Overnight the storms have not had any major impacts, but the worst of the weather is still to come and with high tides due later this morning, we are working hard to prepare and to make sure our professional partners are prepared. We have officers out checking flood defences, closing flood gates and clearing any river blockages. We are receiving regular updates from the Met Office, and will continuously monitor both tidal conditions and river levels to ensure we are prepared.
"We currently have three flood warnings in place in Hampshire and West Sussex, and we are urging people in the area most likely to be affected to be aware and to take appropriate action. People should be aware that there could be a lot of water around, so avoid trying to drive or walk through any flooding and be sensible when out and about, particularly around the coast. Now is a good time for anyone who lives in an area vulnerable to flooding to think about the precautions they can take to protect their properties, and I would encourage everybody to check their flood risk at the Environment Agency website."

Town Square
Election: Grant, Arkin, Hintzke win school board seats
Original post made on Nov 7, 2008
Read the full story here Web Link posted Friday, November 7, 2008, 12:00 AM
on Nov 7, 2008 at 3:15 pm
This article states, "Commenting on the Pleasanton Weekly's website, [Stephen Page] said he didn't seek or accept money because he 'wanted to test the idea that a person could run on the value of his ideas, merit, dedication to citizen-service, and the value of one's experiences.'"
This sounds so noble, and the Weekly reporter is being kind to Page, because in other comments made by Page on November 5 on the Weekly's website (in response to the earlier online version of this article), he lists a series of "Corrupted Process Lessons" that chastize our school board and the Weekly itself for censoring him. He claims that government and the election process and ALL news organizations are corrupt. He writes:
"The election **process** at the local level of government in Pleasanton has been broken or corrupted for quite some time...."
"For the news organizations (all of them) to censor and mislabel a candidate as they have, censoring accurate information for their own purposes, it is simply an example of a fundamental corruption of government that any American citizen could imagine."
Page goes on a ramPAGE with a lenthy diatribe of sour grapes and paranoia to preach these Corrupted Process Lessons to readers.
You've got to click over to read this stuff. It's a powerful lesson that as voters we should ALWAYS do our homework before voting.
Thank goodness he wasn't elected.
on Nov 7, 2008 at 9:43 pm
don't know about Page but i am SO SORRY Hintzke won a school board seat. I was going to vote for her until I saw her holding a NO on 8 sign at farmers mkt. You are right, we need to do our homework on all the candidates.
on Nov 8, 2008 at 8:39 am
Well I am glad Valerie Arkin Won! She is smart, well educated, articulate and a big volunteer in the school system. She does not work outside the home -other than volunteering, so she has the time to made a significant contribution the school board! Go Valerie. BTW, she was not recommended by the PW either, so I would not expect to see much written in support of her by the editors.

Preventing Sexual Assault
For prevention, take care at all times to identify people and situations that may lead to sexual assault. The chances of being a victim can be lowered by following these practices:
- Train in self-defense.
- Use common sense in choosing the people you associate with.
- Avoid potentially dangerous situations when outside or in your house (answering the door) and when interacting with strangers anywhere.
- Avoid intimate or solo contact with people that you do not know well.
- If a person is making unwelcome sexual advances, no matter how minor, take action in the earliest stages and make every effort to disassociate from that person.
- Use self-control when drinking alcohol.
- At social events, be careful about what you consume and who has access to your drinks.
- Avoid extreme intoxication in which you lose control, especially when you are not in a protected environment.
- Adopt an approach in dating and getting to know people that involves postponing being alone together, intimacy, and sexual interaction until you feel you have gotten to know the person very well
- When intimacy is initiated between consenting parties, make clear early on your limitations (for example, you don't want intercourse).
- Think about how you would react in an assault situation in advance and use that plan early and without reservation.

The Obama "movement" was named one of the "marketers of the year" by Advertising Age.
Just weeks before he demonstrates whether his campaign's blend of grass-roots appeal and big media-budget know-how has converted the American electorate, Sen. Barack Obama has shown he's already won over the nation's brand builders. He's been named Advertising Age's marketer of the year for 2008.
This has obvious snark value– to me, it suggests that Obama's "change" rhetoric is not much more than rhetoric and marketing ploys. As has been amply documented, his foreign policy looks to be about as imperial as the Clinton administration–slightly less brazen and slightly more willing to talk with allies than Bush, but not that different. See this recent article from Jonathan Schell in The Nation – while Schell drinks the Obama kool-aid to some extent, he also notes the many militaristic aspects of Obama's policy formulations.
However, there's a deeper issue here. I think the Obama campaign has truly done a (tactically) great job of marketing and building the Obama brand. Of course, as most mass-marketed brands are, I'd argue that the Obama brand is manipulative, in that it tells us that one vote on November 4th is enough for "change", and that Obama will save us all from war, the financial crisis, etc. But… even people on the Left need to get their message out, and some form of "marketing" is necessary to do that, whether we call it that or not. The question is, how much marketing and what kind of marketing is it ethical for the Left to use? I particularly wonder about Lakoff's (political) ideas (which should really be the subject of an entirely different post). While to some extent using metaphor and framing devices intelligently is just part of good writing and rhetoric, how manipulative do Leftists want to get? Shouldn't the Left concentrate more on presenting its case clearly and accessibly, rather than looking for the magic phrase that will suddenly convert thousands of Reagan Democrats?
Bringing my post back to Obama, can the Left learn from the tactical successes (so far) of the Obama campaign in marketing? The Advertising Age blurb specifically mentions the web 2.0 parts of the campaign– the creation of an attractive Obama-focused social networking website, with discussion forums, email lists, etc; as well as the widespread use of existing web 2.0 apps (Facebook, Twitter, etc). While there are ZNet and Parecon groups on Facebook and MySpace, as well as a large sophisticated site with social networking features (this one), there's nothing like the buzz around Obama. I'm sure that money is a factor– ZNet and the Parecon movement has nothing like the funds behind Obama. But there must be other factors… what are they?

NEW ORLEANS - Once the stuff of science fiction and cartoons, robots are becoming common place.
From car manufacturing to operating rooms to vacuum cleaners, simple robots are everywhere.
So what will the future bring?
Two organizations, Building Louisiana Science and Technolgy BLAST) and For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST,) are taking that question to today's teenagers.
Barbara Pailet of BLAST and Jon Paul Tallman, a former Destrehan High School FIRST robot team member turned LSU electrical engineering major, joined Digital Gumbo's Mark Lewis.
If you want to support BLAST and FIRST, the Louisiana Technology Council has teamed up with the Brown Foundation to host a Robotic Revelry Gala on Saturday from 7 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. at the World War II Museum.

By almost any statistical measure, children in North America today are losing ground compared to the recent past. Their educational performance is lower and does not compare well with many other developed nations. Health status, as shown in the incidence and prevalence of such things as obesity, juvenile diabetes, and other disorders and diseases are on the rise. More children, due to economic and social context have less hope of upward social mobility than in the last 30 years. Public support and investment in programs that will provide support and assistance to children in need are at risk as states slash budgets.
Yet, the evidence for the benefit of investment in children is clear. We are learning more than ever before about the development of children's brains, bodies, and emotional resilience, and how important it is that even from the earliest ages, children have appropriate social, emotional, and physical care. We know that relational development and health through the child life cycle into and beyond adolescence plays a pivotal role in long term health and functioning. Further, we know there are strategies for prevention and intervention in the early years that work. They produce positive, beneficial long term effects in physical and relational health, and in increasing the possibility of becoming productive , healthy, and generative contributors in society.
Our 2013 will focus on vibrancy and children. We seek abstracts exploring protective factors and intervention strategies– individual, family, societal and cultural- that enhance the probability of positive long term gains for children. Topics may touch upon:
We encourage creative workshop formats, such as panel discussions or respectful debates exploring differing perspectives. We also seek research posters that highlight emerging knowledge about relationships and clinical interventions. The deadline for abstract submissions is December 1, 2012. Extensions will not be given.
To submit an abstract you must have either an AAMFT member ID number or a guest ID number. If you don't please click here and create a user account for the AAMFT website, otherwise click the read more button to proceed to the submission form

- Worth every penny!8in303Dined on 8/29/2014I always love this place! Fabulous steaks, great service, comfortable atmosphere! I wouldn't miss it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OkOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/29/2014It was good just didn't have that wow factor. We were hoping to be happier with our entrees considering we don't get out much but is was good.Special Features:
- Good and safe, but not inspiring.GoldenHikerDined on 8/29/2014We went for Restaurant week. Service was great, and the food was well prepared, but it wasn't exciting. At 40, we were the youngest couple in there. An older crowd set overall. Definitely on the high end of pricing overall as well.Special Features:
- Always a good choiceBrunchDined on 8/28/2014Consistently excellent food, service and ambience. The Tavern is also a good alternative for less formal occasions.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 8/28/2014I do not wish to write a review for this restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PoorOut2fun1997Dined on 8/28/2014Very expensive and not worth it!!! For the price of meal , quality of food not with it!!! Their dessert tray was a joke !Special Features:
- FavoriteKentDined on 8/28/2014The Briarwood has become my number one restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- It wasn't a good experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/27/2014We celebrate special occasions at the Briarwood, and have always had excellant food. This time I had the $30 Salmon entry. It was tasteless and had a sauce with it that was worse. It did not include any vegetables or potatoes. My wife's entre did. If this meal was intended to "show off" their food they totally missed the mark.I was very disappointed with my meal and it's cost. theSpecial Features:
- Best food in DenverfoodieDined on 8/26/2014Love the food there, prices are high, but worth to budget for every once in a while. You are paying for the atmosphere - no screaming kids, yeah!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CharmingcasualdinerDined on 8/26/2014The Briarwood Inn was a wonderful venue for a business dinner. Dining on a Tuesday night, the restaurant was not crowded or noisy. The staff allowed our party of three to enjoy a leisurely meal while discussing challenging business topics. The appetizer tray, salad, main course, and dessert were all fabulous. The staff was prompt and courteous, but remained in the background with minimal interruption of our discussion. The house merlot was an excellent option. The Briarwood Inn itself has a tremendous charm and elegance about it. I would highly recommend visiting The Briarwood Inn for special occasions or when needing a more upscale restaurant.Special Features:
- Quiet dinnerMariDined on 8/25/2014Our party of four ate in the Tavern. Very quiet as it was almost empty on a Monday evening. The menu is limited but more reasonable than the main dining room. The food was excellent and the service very attentive.Special Features:
- awesome as usualSusyDined on 8/25/2014again you all out did yourself, everything was wonderful, I had the Summer gazpacho, tasty, crunchy veggies, luscious, flank steak was cook to perfection, mashed pots were smooth and tasty, baby carrots good. The dessert was wonderful, it was a nutella ice box cake, so rich I could not finish it. I would have loved to see the chopped salad as an offering you had at the first Denver Restaurant week but you always come up with great and tasty temptations. I love the place, been coming for as long as you've been around. Thanks for an awesome dinner!Special Features:
- Yummy!ALHJVIPDined on 8/24/2014Food is wonderful, service is great! I did not like the sweet marinade on my steak, but I used a little au jus and it was fine. Generally, never a problem!Special Features:
- Disappointed.luv2dineDined on 8/24/2014We went here before a show at Red Rocks on Sunday night in August (also during Denver Restaurant Week). We wanted to try a new place close to Red Rocks. The restaurant's menu seemed good and it had gotten Diners Choice Awards for multiple years. However, as soon as we sat down I knew it was going not be a good experience. Food crumbs all over my booth seat, crumbs on my plate and when my husband picked up the wine book he had food smeared all over his hand (some food was stuck to the back of the wine book). Our waiter, while very polite, also came back several times to ask us the questions about our order because he forgot. And our food was not great (I got the steak, carrots and potatoes and hubby got salmon). We will not come back.
- DisappointingoldmarkDined on 8/24/2014We went for the Denver Restaurant Week and were quite disappointed. What the Briarwood was offering for $30 was a real rip-off. My wife had the salmon which was good but was nothing more than a small piece of salmon with no accompanying veggies or potatoes. I had the the flatiron steak which consisted of 5 or 6 very thinly sliced pieces of flanksteak, a dollop of mashed potatoes and 3 mini carrots. That's right. Three! There was no bread and butter provided but they did offer an appetizer tray for $39. We passed on that. We've been to several other restaurants for Restaurant Week (used to be 5280) before so we had a fair idea what to expect. Unfortunately, the Briarwood didn't meet our expectations.Special Features:
- HonuVIPDined on 8/24/2014Celebrated our anniversary at the Briarwood - Ray and John took care of us and did a fantastic job. As usual, we had a delicious meal.....Appetizer tray followed by salad and scallops. Entrée - Peppered steak and Rib Eye - both delicious, tender and moist...done to perfection. Then dessert - what a wonderful way to celebrate 33 years together!Special Features:
- Not Coming Back For AwhileDisappointedDined on 8/24/2014The food was not up to the standard we look for at the Briarwood Inn. The carrots were raw. The service was great as it always is.Special Features:
- Old-fashionedlovegourmetfoodDined on 8/24/2014This is the kind of restaurant that Grandma and Grandpa are expected to love. We didn't! The food is predictable fare, nothing interesting, but not bad. I asked for no onions on the salad, and got onions, then had to wait for a long time to get a salad without onions. The salmon was overcooked and pretty bland. We won't go back.
- Good evening with familylove2eatDined on 8/24/2014we had a party of six and were seated at a round table which was nice for visiting. One person ordered a beverage and it did not come in a timely fashion and we had to request the order again. Desert was served and we were not asked if coffee or tea was wanted, again we hade to request this after we received the desert. The sun was in two of our guests faces and the blind did not go down far enough to shield the sun from their faces. The food was excellent, which was important because we chose the Briarwood because we have always been pleased with the food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding serviceJenMarieDined on 8/24/2014One person loved the restaurant week menu; the other thought it was OK. The gazpacho was excellent; the Colorado peach dessert was a bit disappointing because we didn't like the jalapeno ice cream flavor with the peach flavor. I would recommend sticking with the regular menu, which is always excellent food.Special Features:
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/23/2014The salad and salmon were very good, but it is pretty pathetic that you have to pay extra for bread. Also the main course had no vegetables or starch with it. The peach dessert was very small - two bites at most. Not a good value even for 5280 and we won't be going back.Special Features:
- GoldenJonnyInGoldenDined on 8/22/2014The curried Halibut was amazing, all 4 courses were Golden!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Could have been betterJackpotjjDined on 8/21/2014The service was fantastic, the food so-so, way too expensive.Special Features:
- GoodanniversaryspecialDined on 8/20/2014Food was great, wine was wonderful, sommerlier was very nice, crowd a bit older than I remember! Maybe a bit too blue hair for me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Halibut Dinnereat2liveDined on 8/20/2014Our family loves the Briarwood and we frequently come for special occasions. We love the atmosphere, the service and the food is wonderful.Special Features:
- HonuVIPDined on 8/20/2014Met friends for Music on the Terrace - CU Buffoons. Wonderful evening. Enjoyed a glass of wine with the artichoke/spinach dip while listening to 8 CU students sing A Cappella. Ordered the Tenderloin Tacos - delicious with beans - spicy (at least for me) but extremely tasty. Others enjoyed the Fish & Chips - not too much batter - delicious chips. A little rain didn't stop the enjoyment - the entertainers sang on and no one left. They broke up the singing with jokes - made for a most enjoyable evening. Next Wednesday is the last Music on the Terrace for the season - jazz - don't miss it!Special Features:
- Messed up reservationlulu123Dined on 8/20/2014I made a reservation for the patio. When we arrived they told us they dont take patio reservations. I said well you gave me one when I made the reservation. So we had a drink and left. Disappointing
- An enjoyable eveningOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/18/2014All were impressed about everything. The restaurant made an occasion specialSpecial Features:
- HortonHortonDined on 8/18/2014An item on the menu listed "Farro" to accompany the meat and vegetables. My wife is gluten intolerant. We asked what Farro is and were told it was an old grain and was gluten free. My wife ordered the dish, ate the Farro and spent the next two days in bed with severe pain and discomfort. We "Googled" Farro and found that it is NOT gluten free. An otherwise pleasant dining experience has left us very irritated that the restaurant staff were so ignorant.
- Saturday Brunchmarymac9Dined on 8/16/2014I love the Briarwood Inn. It is a great palce to eat. That being said, I hope they add more gluten free options for their gluten free guests. She had little to choose from and no pasteries were available to my guest except the coconut macaroon. I know the Briarwood chef's can hopefully add gluten free to their menus. ThanksSpecial Features:
- Birthday CelebrationWeeklyDinerDined on 8/9/2014My husband and I and another couple dined at the Briarwood Inn for my friend's and my birthday. We had a lovely evening. They've freshened the dining rooms so you still get the woodsy feel, but it seemed lighter. The food was excellent. We started with the appetizer tray. Always a favorite and was excellent as expected. My husband loved the spinach salad and the other 2nd courses were delicious and well prepared. The steaks were prepared to the proper doneness (from medium well to rare) and were very tender and flavorful. Dessert held a variety of sweets which we enjoyed. The service was exceptional. There when you needed them, but not hovering. All in all a very enjoyable meal.Special Features:
- High TeaTeddVIPDined on 8/9/2014The food is plentiful and delicious. The service and atomsphere make this a very special restaurant.Special Features:
- Lovely dining experienceGrannyDined on 8/9/2014Our table for two was right by the windows allowing a lovely view of the "river" that ran past the restaurant along with trees and shrubs making us feel like we were dining outside. (There is seating on the patio but we chose to be inside.) Our waitress was altogether lovely and very helpful in explaining the menu. Her service was excellent. The food portions were very generous. After eating for an hour we still took half the food home. This is a quiet, elegant setting fit for any special occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/6/2014Disappointed. Had to find a waitress to get a glass of wine in the bar, heard a crash of wine glasses, and the prime rib was not tender. Not great place for a quality steak.
- 50th Anniversary Party!OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/6/2014The Briarwood Inn was outstanding - we booked for my parents 50th wedding anniversary - the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a lovely table outdoors for the evening. Entertained by "Sinatra" it was a perfect Colorado venue! Additionally our family has a peanut allergy and the staff was extremely knowledgeable on ingredients and helped provide for a great meal for all of our guests.Special Features:
- Champagne & OystersoysterloverDined on 8/4/2014We saw the advertised special for Champagne and Oysters for $10. We are fairly frequent diners at the Briarwood. The oysters were fresh and very good. The champagne was not Dom but it was very good. For the price and the atmosphere, it can't be beat. They also had their appetizer tray on special (Mondays) for $15. This was our entire meal. I recommend it whenever they have this special.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- goodeatsDined on 8/2/2014Excellent as always. Amazing food and unsurpassed service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent dining experienceshevans2Dined on 8/1/2014My husband and I had a wonderful dinner at the Briarwood Inn. The food was wonderful and the atmosphere was quiet and was perfect for celebrating our anniversary. All staff members were attentive to our every need and each of the four courses was timed perfectly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- HonuVIPDined on 7/30/2014Perfect place to celebrate our retirement - had a private dining area with excellent service from Bryce and Patrick. Everyone enjoyed the evening. Ordered from the Tavern menu - most had fish/chips - everyone thought they were delicious - more than enough. Two of us ordered the Cobb Salad and a number of our guests had the Tenderloin Tacos - which were no only filling but they were tender. A couple friends ordered the house made ice cream - best around. Began the evening with the spinach and artichoke dip and cocktails. Spent about 3 hours enjoying food and friendship.Special Features:
- Wonderful Time on our AnniversarylacuisineDined on 7/28/2014The service was excellent and the food was what I would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. My husband and I have made it a tradition to go to this restaurant every year for our anniversary. We are never disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
