The View From The DJ Booth-------
Industry legend Michel Gaubert is one of the go-to DJs for the fashion set, spinning tunes for Chanel, Balenciaga, Proenza Schouler, Gucci, and more. (He counted down his Top 10 runway soundtracks of the decade 2001-2011 here.) He was in the booth for Chanel's Paris/Bombay Métiers d'Art show, and in between spinning tunes—including George Harrison's "My Sweet Lord," John Lennon's "Instant Karma!," and David Lynch's "Good Day Today" (Chanel shared his full playlist here)—he managed to record the show from his DJ's-eye-view. Gaubert shared the video, below, and a few choice pics with Hintmag.
Tim Blanks Reports From Hyères: -------
Recent Fashion Grads Get "One Last Grasp At The High-Concept Ring"
Never mind their guest lists of the avant-garde's great, good, and badly behaved, Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles' villa on a hill above the town of Hyères in the South of France must have seemed to the locals like a bemusing glimpse of the future when it was built in the mid-1920′s. Its blocky modernism is still incredibly striking in the pink-shaded and shuttered context of a typical Riviera town, and you couldn't wish for a better setting if you were an arts festival looking to stage a competition that celebrates creativity untrammeled by the forces of Mammon. Which, for the fashion end of the festival, translates into exhibitions of work by recent graduates from around Europe, for whom Hyères offers one final attempt to Truly Express Themselves. It might be their one last grasp at the high-concept ring before they're subjected to the external disciplines of internships, studio assistant positions, and judgmental barb-tongues telling them to get real.
Except the judges at Hyères this year weren't like that at all. The composition of the jury embraced a universe of sensibilities, from the rigorous thought processes of chair Raf Simons and editrix Jo-Ann Furniss, through the not-much-older-than-the-finalists Christopher Kane, Lazaro Hernandez, and Jack McCollough, to the well-seasoned industry perspectives of Carla Sozzani, Floriane de Saint-Pierre, Cathy Horyn, and Michel Gaubert, with my rosé connoisseurship bringing up the rear. Juries are a challenging proposition. In both numbers and gender equity, we were nowhere near 12 angry men, but the differences of opinion—and the passion with which they were aired—were a surprise, especially given that there was genuine agreement on one thing: This was not a bumper fashion year in Hyères. In the spirit of the place, it was bemusing, and even blocky hyères and thyères. But bumper? No.
The jury saw the finalists' clothes three ways: as a presentation, on the catwalk, and in a showroom. It was fascinating how our appreciation of the designers ebbed and flowed according to the mode in which we were encountering them. Here, the fabrics ruled, there, the showmanship. The eventual winner was Lea Peckre from France. Her collection, Cemeteries Are Fields of Flowers (above), was polished in its execution, intriguing in its fabrication. I'm a sucker for wood sequins—and she also used GodSpeed You! Black Emperor as her show music, which can't hurt. The attention to structure and the concierge color palette of Peckre's clothes also had hints of Jean Paul Gaultier, with whom she interned. That too can't hurt.
The jury's honorable mention—and the competition's most polarizing designer—was Emilie Meldem from Switzerland. Some members of the jury were utterly seduced by her directness, her drollness, and what she referred to as "the minimal eccentricity" of the Swiss aesthetic. What I loved most were the showpieces woven from twigs. ("Half my village helped on the dress," she said with what might have been a chuckle, but could have been a choke.) Each stick was, according to Meldem, treated like a piece of jewelry. The result was so pagan, so ritualistic, that I felt like I was looking at The Wicker Man à la mode. Which can't be bad.
One final note: Hyères is open to independent applicants from all over the world, which seems to be a well-kept secret. It doesn't matter where you live, where you received your fashion education. So one word of advice to fashion students everywhere: Apply! Hyères at this time of year? A small patch of heaven.
Hyères And There, Then And Now-------
The International Fashion and Photography Festival that takes place every year in Hyères (sorry, couldn't resist) in the South of France has an impressive pedigree, a point rammed home by the rapid-fire video appetizer for the 26th edition, which runs April 29 till May 2. (You can watch it, in its slightly hysterical glory, below.) The ten fashion finalists (from France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, and Switzerland) will be judged by a jury headed up by Raf Simons, who also has an exhibition running in the Photography Festival. He'll have to ride herd on jurors Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, Christopher Kane, Carla Sozzani, Cathy Horyn, Michel Gaubert, and me, though our verdict will undoubtedly be rendered unanimous under the ameliorating influence of Provence's finest rosés. And there can be few more appropriate locations in which to judge a new wave of design talent than the Villa Noailles, one of the French Riviera's great if-walls-could-talk houses. In its pre-war heyday, it played host to Picasso, Dalí, Cocteau, and a whole host of avant-gardists. With Raf, rosé, and Michel Gaubert's iPod, we should be able to raise a few ghosts.
Le Garage Chanel, Keds' Clothes, A Flurry Of New Collabs, And More…-------
Form March 1 through 10, Chanel and Colette are joining forces on a pop-up store located in an industrial garage on Colette's block, Rue Saint-Honoré. In addition to Chrome Hearts customized bags and graffiti handbags—a nod to Karl Lagerfeld's longtime affection for the brand—the space will sport a nail bar, cupcake stand, and music by Michel Gaubert. Sounds like the perfect Paris fashion week detour (even if we don't imagine a lot of those cupcakes will get eaten). [WWD]
Keds Sportswear is just a hop, skip, and a jump away. The 100-year-old footwear brand will launch women's and men's lines aimed at a twentysomething audience for Spring '12. [WWD]
Vena Cava's Sophie Buhai and Lisa Mayock (left) are collab queens. After previously pairing up with Gap, Via Spiga, Bloomingdale's, and the Proper Attire condom line, their next mass venture is with Uniqlo. [Fashion Etc.]
And the Twitter rumor du jour: Julia Restoin-Roitfeld to get her own fragrance? Here's looking forward to eau de RR. [Elle]

I'm currently involved in the design of a traditional building (reflects local heritage and tradition). The building comprises a number of rooms ,of various sizes, that encompass an open court. As the building is centrally air-conditioned, the client wants the open court be covered with a multi-media screen (size: 25x25m) that can be used for displaying weather emulations (summer: clear skies/clouds, winter: dark clouds/thunders/heavy rains). I've tried to locate a supplier who can cater for this job
Or, someone who can suggest a supplier / an alternative but with no luck. Can anyone offer a solution for this problem?
Looking forward to your contributions in this matter.

|Plasma Physics Seminar ( Phys 769)
| Dr. Vyacheslav Lukin, Naval Research
Computational Fluid Modeling of Magnetized Plasmas in Laboratory and Space
It is well-known that 99% of visible matter is a plasma. And much of that, from the UMD's MCX experiment to the intergalactic medium, is a magnetized plasma. In recent years, fueled by the rapid advances in computational hardware and improved numerical methods, progress in theoretical understanding of magnetized plasmas has relied heavily on computational modeling. Here, I will discuss one of the common computational approaches to tracking the dynamics of a magnetized plasma, /ab initio/ solution of extended magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations, while using some of the latest numerical techniques developed by the applied mathematics community. I will describe the numerical code we use to model MHD plasma dynamics, the two- and three-dimensional implicit spectral element code HiFi, and some of the methods and underlying principles used in the development of the code. Finally, I will provide several examples of the past and ongoing applications of the HiFi code to modeling of both laboratory and space plasmas.

Farmington Reads
We love DO YOU KNOW WHICH ONES WILL GROW? and we hope you will too! In January 2013, every preschool and child care facility in Farmington and Farmington Hills will receive a copy of this engaging picture book, a gift from the Farmington Friends of the Library. We hope you will join us in our goal to read this book to every preschool-aged child in our community this winter. With its bold colors, fun flaps, and thought-provoking concept, we believe that this book embodies all the qualities a book should have to convey to kids the joy of reading. This year's title is also noteworthy for its focus on scientific thought.
In addition to a copy of the book, each facility will receive an extension packet containing preschool science activities, book lists, crafts, and tips to expand on the concepts developed in DO YOU KNOW WHICH ONES WILL GROW?. Preschoolers have a natural curiosity about the world around them and so these years are the perfect time to inspire a lifelong love of science. Furthermore, children who learn to label and classify the world around them have improved verbal skills that are a foundation of literacy.
During the months of January, February, and March, we will offer Farmington Reads! events at both branches of the Library and visits to Farmington-area preschools and child care facilities to read the book. To schedule a visit to your preschool or daycare, contact the Children's Outreach Librarian at (248) 553-6881.

Four Kansas City men have been charged in the home invasion and the ensuing high-speed chase that occurred Friday morning in south Kansas City, Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced Saturday.
Marlyn L. Standifer, 25, Joshua L. Fields, 29, Jonathan L. Fields, 30, and Theodore Watkins, 23, all of Kansas City, face charges of first-degree attempted robbery, first-degree burglary, kidnapping and two counts of armed criminal action.
Police continue to investigate the chaotic scene in which a man was shot multiple times while taking out the trash, and the suspects later fired shots after bursting into a neighbor's home.
The man taking out the trash was shot at least four times including a wound to his neck and leg, according to a neighbor who came to his aid. The man, who is in critical but stable condition, is in an area hospital. One of the suspects suffered a graze to his head, possibly from a gunshot, during the melee.
Police have released few details about the crimes, as they work to unravel what occurred starting about 7:45 a.m. in the Ruskin Heights area. This occurred near East 111th Terrace and Winchester Avenue.
Nicole Williams said she was getting ready to leave her home to put out her own trash, when she noticed a maroon van moving very slowly through the neighborhood. She said three suspects jumped out of the vehicle and accosted her neighbor, as he was taking out his trash.
"When they saw Curtis, they hopped out on him and put him at gunpoint, and made him go between the houses," she said.
She called 911 as the suspects forced her neighbor into bushes near his home. She heard multiple shots ring out.
The man staggered to Williams' home for aid as the suspects then burst into another neighbor's home. Williams said she frantically began to tend to the man's wounds including ripping off his shirt. She said he was shot at least four times and perhaps more.
She said she told him, "Stay calm. Everything is going to be OK."
She said the man told her that he was shot, because he refused their order to go to a nearby neighbor's home and knock on the door, creating a ruse for them to be able to force their way in.
"He was talking, but he was going in and out," she said.
But police say the man was forced to go to the door, knocked, went in and was injured when gunfire rang out inside that home.
The suspects forced their way into the home where a man, woman and three children were.
The man in the home confronted the suspects, and Williams said she heard gunfire inside the home. That homeowner was not injured and the suspects fled. Police are investigating.
As police and ambulances responded to the scene, officers began to chase the van, which had Kansas license plates. Speeds reached 80 mph and wound through Kansas City and Lee's Summit with the suspects driving the wrong way on city streets.
After about 20 minutes, the chase ended when the van crashed into some streets near the intersection of southbound Highway 350 and Colbern Road and the suspects were taken into custody. The van had its rear window shot out at some point during the chaos.
Police also deployed stop sticks.
Missouri Highway Patrol assisted in the chase.
Prosecutors requested $250,000 cash bonds on Standifer and Joshua Fields and $150,000 bonds on the other two defendants.

Steffon Armitage faces anxious wait
ESPN Staff
October 26, 2012
Steffon Armitage tested positive for morphine © Getty Images
Steffon Armitage will have to wait until next week to discover whether he will be banned by the French Rugby Federation for failing a drugs test.
Armitage attended a two-hour hearing of the FFR's anti-doping commission in Marcoussis on Friday, at the end of which he was told the verdict would be published at some point next week.
The Toulon flanker tested positive for morphine, a prohibited substance, following last season's Top 14 final defeat by Toulouse but he has always vehemently expressed his innocence.
Toulon's explanation is that the result was caused by side-effects from painkillers and anti-inflammatories Armitage had been prescribed for back pain, which the club say are approved by the French Anti-Doping Agency (AFLD).
Armitage was provisionally suspended but that was lifted in August. The original anti-doping hearing was then postponed from August 21 after the player asked to have his B sample tested.
Capped five times by England, Armitage has been in the form of his life since moving from London Irish to Toulon in the summer of 2011.
Armitage was voted Top 14 player of the year last season and he has carried that form into this campaign, despite the uncertainty of the anti-doping hearing hanging over him.
Toulon team-mate Jonny Wilkinson called for Armitage to be recalled by England following his try-scoring performance in the Heineken Cup victory over Cardiff Blues.
But England head coach Stuart Lancaster is not considering players based in France because they are not available to join up with the squad for training camps outside the international window.
England meet at the Football Association's new training centre in Burton on Sunday night to begin their build-up to the QBE autumn internationals.

Title inspired by my late night viewing of The Bullwinkle Show lol..
When Boozer went down before Preseason, I was expecting nothing more than a team trying to tread water until his return. .500 was the ceiling of my expectations, suffice to say that the team has surpassed those expectations, even though there is time for that to be proven wrong between now and his return. I feel like the team is legit, and I'm not the only one with that opinion.
When you add our early success, with the pending return of Boozer, and the way the Eastern Conference has been shaping up early, it has to give you a quiet sense of optimism that this team can truly be EC title contenders THIS year. Miami hasn't jelled nearly as fast as everyone expected, and looks like a team that can be taken advantage of with a good PG and quality bigs (Hello, DRose, Noah, and Booz!!). Boston has looked good, but lose their floor general, Rondo, for a while and those hamstrings can be pains in the butt to heal. Orlando has looked shaky, but have gotten wins off of Howard and Nelson. Atlanta doesn't really look like they will be matching their seasons of the last couple of years. And Milwaukee, and Charlotte are both off to bad starts.
I've jumped off the "Trade for Melo" Bandwagon, I think Deng has proven that he can be an excellent SF in this system and a worthy 3rd/4th option in the offense, but he isn't a 2nd option and I think that has also become clear. With that said, I'd much rather have Deng at $9 mil/year, than Melo at close to $20 mil/year, especially if it means keeping Noah.
To me the best way to make this team better, and IMO become legit Eastern Conference title contenders is to make our starting lineup a complete lineup. Which means adding a SG that can take over the spot. Bogans and Brewer are a good platoon at SG, but we need someone who can do or at least come close to matching their combined skills in one person. A person who is capable of getting a couple of 20-something nights, on the nights when Deng disappears to supplement D.Rose and Boozer. A guy who can be depended on to compete and play good solid D on the big-time SG's he'll face, while at the same time being able to put some pressure back on them on the offensive side. There was a recent article by Sam Smith listing and detailing the SG's most likely available on the trade block, if you haven't read it, here it is: Bulls May Need Better Shooting Guard to Make Run
The 3 names on that list that stick out to me are O.J. Mayo, Rudy Fernandez, and Marcus Thornton. Basically because all three can be had for on rookie contracts, which means they'll be cheap (for the time being) and still young enough to grow with this team. Thornton, would be the cheapest, he could be had for our own 1st rounder, I would think, but he doesn't really seem like the complete SG I'm looking for in this type of trade, because his D isn't good enough. He would be a great complement to Bogans or Brewer though. I think the realization about Brandon Roy's bad knees has raised Rudy's price tag, and if they weren't going for out 1st and JJ before, who knows what they'll ask for now. That leaves Mayo, you may have noticed that I've been pimping his name around the site for some time now. I just think he is the perfect piece to this puzzle. I'll explain after the jump...
OJ Mayo is the SG that Gar Paxsdorf should be coming up with creative ways to get (just like I have been). He would be the perfect 3rd / 4th option on this team. It would take the pressure off of Deng to have to get those mid-teens to low 20's games EVERY night, so when he disappears and we all know he will, we have someone who we can realistically rely on. Instead of hoping Taj, or God forbid Bogans or Brewer come up with a big night.
-- You say he's only 6'4.. I say our starting SG now is only an inch taller, and has less quickness. Mayo plays physical D and can definitely get his shot off. He also has a 6'6 wingspan, so he's no chump.
-- You say he's only shooting 39%.. I say he's in one of the worst offenses in the league, this observation is just off the eyeball test, no actual stats to back up my claim. But when ever I see Grizz games or highlights everything seems one-on-one. It's either dumping the ball in the post to Z-Bo or Baby Gasol where it never returns or Gay out on the wing in ISO. I can't help but think that his shooting percentage would rise on a team that has more ball movement. He is a 44% shooter and hitting 38% of his 3's career-wise. Even with the bad start, he's still averaging 13.6/ game and shooting 37% from behind the arc, wouldn't you love to have that out in our starting lineup?
-- You say the guy is a punk.. I say he "was" a punk. I've heard about the selfish behavior and the infractions at USC, but I think that's behind him. Take a look at this article, it paints a totally different picture than the one that you typically hear regarding Mayo. I found this snippet, especially interesting:
These days, Mayo is the last player you can accuse of not caring about his team. When asked what he hopes to accomplish in his third year, individual accolades don't even cross his mind.
"My main thing is I just want to help my team get to the playoffs," Mayo said. "I think it's about that time. We're all getting tired of having an early end to the season after eighty-two games and we feel that this is the year that we can become a postseason team and just get better. I want to be able to contribute in all areas. I'm here for my team and I'll bring my hard hat into work every day."
Doesn't he sound like the "grimy" type of player, D.Rose is always talking about ?
-- Lastly, you'll probably say, so if he's so good and this emerging leader why would Memphis give him up?.. I answer that question by saying that he's going to be the odd man out. He, Z-Bo, and Baby Gasol will all be up for free agency in the next 2 years. They have already signed Rudy Gay and Mike Conley to big money extensions, I can't see all 3 guys getting the money they want. And they have no bigs to offset the loss of Z-Bo or Gasol, but they do have SG's to offset the loss of Mayo in Tony Allen, Xavier Henry, and Greivis Vasquez.
So here's my newest hair-brained plan to get him (and a couple of others) on to our Chicago Bulls. Stay with me because this one is a little complicated.
4-Team Trade involving Chicago, Memphis, Sacramento, and Indiana:
Bulls Get: SG / SF Dahntay Jones from Indy, Jason Thompson from Sac, and OJ Mayo from Mem, with a 2nd round pick from Sac and 2nd round pick from Indy
Pacers Get: SG Francisco Garcia from Sac, C Hamed Haddadi from Mem, and PF Brian Scalabrine from Chi, with Bulls 1st round pick
Grizz Get: PG Beno Udrih and SF / PF Donte Greene from Sac, with Bulls 1st round pick (Charlotte's pick) Kings Get: PG TJ Ford from Indy, SG / SF Ronnie Brewer, SF James Johnson, and PF / C Kurt Thomas from Chi, and Sam Young from Mem

ASP Women's World Tour surfer Malia Manuel recently posted this video of her surfing at night in Bali. Lights were set up so both the surfers and viewers of the video could enjoy the action.
Perhaps more importantly than Manuel's night surfing, since this isn't necessarily an original concept, is the fact that she's wearing a bikini while night surfing, thus making it a very pleasurable video.

A lot of attention has been centered around Romeo Crennel/ Pioli regarding quarterback controversies. The majority of fans along with myself cant stand and wont accept Cassel under center next year. The media is questioning our assets that would be available that we would be able to give up in order to move up to the No 2. draft pick from the Rams. After a little bit of debating I have came up with a very possible scenario that we could use to our advantage. Let me know how you all feel about this.
We have Brandon Carr and Dwayne Bowe without contracts and they have been named "top priority", lets face it we don't need to tie up millions of dollars invested in Carr when we already have 70 million tied up in Brandon Flowers and Stanford Routt. I would personally rather have Carr over Routt but the decision has been made by Pioli and Crennel to choose the wiser financial decision. Given the information above I feel that we can work out a financially effective long term deal with Dwayne Bowe which would leave our Franchise Tag open. If we can work out a deal with Bowe we can tag Carr. Tagging Carr would give us a huge asset to dispense on the very slim Defensive Back market. Here are some options:
Tamba Bay with the #5 overall pick: The Buccanneers have been projected to target Morris Claiborne in the draft at the #5 pick. Lets face it selecting CB's that high in the draft is a high risk, high reward type scenario. The Chiefs have one of the best young CB's in the league who will gain interest from various teams if he hits Free Agency. Since we are expected to just let Carr "walk" why not tag him and trade him to the Bucs along with our #11 pick for their #5 pick in the Draft. The buccanneers would essentially get their CB of the future and still get to pick at #11 in the first round. I think that is a deal that both teams would benefit greatly on. We are probably going to lose Carr anyway, why not tag him and trade him to move up 6 spots in the draft? With the #5 pick in the draft we would have a lot more leverage on trading options in order to move up to spot #2 while essentially giving up something we were going to lose in the first place. The projected cost of moving up to #2 would be two first round picks and third and a fifth in return for the #2 overall pick. So the Chiefs would only have to technically give up a 1st rounder next year, and the third and fifth of this year. I think this scenario seems to benefit the Chiefs greatly, only giving up a First Round, Third Round, and Fifth round pick for potentially your Franchise QB for 10 years to come.
Trade Carr to New England for a 2nd Round Pick: If we Franchised Carr another possible team that could be interested is New England. They need a young talented corner to help build around in their secondary. Similar to when New England Franchised Matt Cassel and traded him to the Chiefs for a 2nd round pick, I think we could do the same thing for them and give them their CB of the Future. If we were able to get this additional 2nd round pick we could use this towards the trade up for the #2 pick. We could give our #11 pick, 1st round pick for next year, 2nd rounder from patriots and 5th rounder of this year. In other terms all we would be giving up to get to #2 would be a 1st rounder from next year and our 5th rounder from this year since we would acquire the 2nd round pick from the patriots that we would give to the Rams. Another team this would work with could be Dallas. I feel as if either team would be willing to give up a second round pick for a elite young defender. Brandon Carr has not even reached his peak yet and he will be coveted by many teams.
I know a lot of fans are not sold on the fact to give up Brandon Carr or to draft RGIII. Heres two very strong points on the reason to let go of Carr and to draft RGIII. Kansas City has tied up over 70 million dollars in their secondary, not including how much money they have in their Linebackers and Lineman. Stanford Routt is a very strong #2 corner and Javier Arenas is developing into a very strong Nickel back. We are set in our secondary with Eric Berry, Kendrick Lewis, Stanford Routt, Brandon Flowers, and Javier Arenas. If we spend any more money in those areas it should be for depth in the Safety position to ensure a solid backup just incase Eric Berry or Kendrick Lewis prove to have nagging injuries.
For the case for RGIII, his known strongest asset could be pointed towards his speed and acceleration, but not only that he has the best deep ball in college football. Paired with Dwayne Bowe, Jon Baldwin, and Steve Breaston that asset could prove deadly. Lets face it Jon Baldwin's strength is his deep play capability and long arms to make the acrobatic catches. RGIII could buy time in the pocket and throw the deep ball to Jon Baldwin making us instant homerun hitters. The defense would have to stay honest by playing the run of Jamaal Charles, the slants of Steve Breaston, and the electrifying routes of Dwayne Bowe. We are one step away from having an elite offense and I think that upgrade needs to be on the QB postition. We have the skillset at WR,TE,RB,and FB to score over 21 points a game, there is no reason for us to be below 15 points per game.

Tales shows that smart, solid elements add up to that elusive experience untarnished by time that defines a classic.
While many of the game's components have become stereotypes over the years, here they are carefully constructed and fit together perfectly, creating something larger than the sum of its parts.
It's true that Tales of Phantasia isn't the huge RPG that it was back in the SNES era, or even the shadow of newer RPGs from last generation, but it is still a warm, heart-filling experience that anyone who can overcome hours of tough, continuous battling will enjoy.
Despite its dated gameplay style and way-too-numerous battles, Tales of Phantasia is an enjoyable role-playing game fans of the genre will certainly enjoy.
While not spectacular by today's standards, Tales of Phantasia still has charm and an uncommon style of gameplay.
Tales of Phantasia ends up looking like a fossil -- and not one of the cool ones with spikes and sharp teeth. More like a fern or insect, existing mostly to study the past and gauge evolution. RPGs have evolved far beyond this port.

In 2004, I was in Haiti living under the injustice Bernard Gousse inflicted on his own people while serving the Haitian elite and the "international community." Like many of Gousse's victims, I was driven into hiding after the arrest of the late Father Gerard Jean-Juste, a prominent Lavalas leader and human rights activist.
April 29, 2009
Haiti's Lavalas movement effectively destroyed the credibility of the April 19 Senate election through a successful boycott campaign called Operation Closed Door. Participation may have been as low as 3 percent nationwide.

I would like to see Evilsmurf to have a more active role on POD. His analysis is a huge benefit to the community and I personally have learned a great deal from him. He does his research and is very articulate. I think Pride of Detroit is a great site and allowing Evilsmurf to have more of an administrative role would only benefit POD.
So if Evil is cool with this, I'd love to see it.

2013 has been a heart wrenching, languishingly bad year; not only on my personal or social fronts but also as a citizen of an independent sovereign nation.
Politics with its ugly, distorted face and the politicians with their wicked games have managed to choke us citizens to near death. The lives each one of us is now living are nothing less than the sheer hellish agony we were warned about in scriptures.
You get out of the house to earn a decent living but come back losing it all; irrespective of your social standing. It doesn't matter if you are a corporate big fish, a garment factory owner, or garments factory worker or a vendor selling peanuts at the corner of the street. How much you sacrifice or lose is directly affecting each one of us. If we don't get paid for one month we don't get to pay our bills or eat the next month. If we don't work for a day our country's economy will falter. It is not a difficult math; your savings will not take you far.
Then there are times you are not only sacrificing your material possessions but your precious lives too. Your car, motor bike, cycle, office building or shop gets smashed and gutted, yet somehow you will manage to re-pay your loans or beg insurance to rescue you. If your limbs are blown off or if you are bullet hit in sporadic terror attack, you still manage to find the mental strength to fight the trauma and stand up again. But if you get killed in senseless destruction than literally all is lost. And now it seems that death or dying on the streets of Dhaka is an everyday scenario. We have come down to that. Our lives mean nothing, our sufferings are not heeded.
I must mention that our resilience and our capacity to withstand sufferings need an award. You see everything we hold dear is taken from us and turned into a political circus. And like puppets we let them take control of our lives and our livelihoods.
We demand a closure to our deep wounds of 1971; look how messy it turned out to be. Amid all the political hocus pocus I feel that people who are against our independence are again gaining ground. Our emerging economy which has its foundations in our RMG sector and of which we are proud, is spiraling down and we seem to encourage it.
The need of the hour is to make sure garment factories ensure compliance and safety working standards. Shutting down the factories or tagging them as blood thirsty slave drivers and halting the economy is not what we need. We have to bring the owners to book, pressurise them to comply. We have to actually punish them by fining not by shutting them down.
We need to be with the teeming thousands of women garments workers who earn an honest decent living; we need to ensure their safety and rights, we don't want them to be without jobs.
I have one say and one say only, I don't want my Bangladesh's future to be Hifazat-e-Islam. And I don't want the young girls who work in the factories to die an untimely death and their murderers to go scot free; neither do I want our economy to stumble.
I am deeply shocked and hurt. Then again who cares if I am shocked or hurt I am nobody, and my government doesn't care or respect my voting franchise.

Hello Big Cat Country brethren! Today I would like to share with you the first entry in a new series I hope to regularly publish going forward called 'Breaking Down The Jags'. In this series, I will be taking a closer look at a specific player's performance from the previous game. I hope you all enjoy it! Today, I begin the series by going back and looking at punter Bryan Anger's performance from the Chiefs game.
As we all know, the Jaguars performed very poorly against Kansas City. The defense was decent, the offense was horrendous, and the special teams...well, we didn't see too much from them, aside from punting. While Anger's performance Sunday did not completely cost the team, it did not really help them either. Anger finished the day with a team record 11 punts, for a total average of 50.5 yards per punt. However, his net total was only 41.4 yards per punt. This would seem to be an ongoing issue with Anger in that he is inconsistent, and will often out-kick the coverage with line drive punts, rather than going for more hang time. Let's take a look at some of the punts from Sunday to get a better idea.
On the second punt of the game, Anger out kicks the coverage on a bad punt, allowing a big return for the Chiefs. The punt itself only goes 41 yards, and then is returned for 36 yards, netting just 5 yards on the play. That is definitely not what you want when you are punting from deep within your own territory.
Anger redeems himself on the fourth punt of the game, until his own teammate messes up the play. Anger gets off a nice 58 yard punt that looks like it could bounce and roll for even more yards, but then linebacker Kyle Knox decides to field the punt for whatever reason. It's a shame, as the kick had nice hang time and distance to it.
On the tenth punt of the game, Anger really shows off his leg with a nice 53 harder with lots of hang time. The result is a fair catch by Dexter McCluster at the 15 yard line. This is a perfect example of what Anger is capable of, and what the Jaguars need him to do on a more consistent basis.
The last punt of the game, however, is a perfect example of why Anger can be so frustrating at times. Instead of angling the kick out of bounds, or adding hang time and subtracting distance, Anger boots one that bounces into the end zone for the touchback. If Anger could have gotten more air under the ball, it would have allowed the gunners more time to get under it and down it around the five. Granted, the coverage team may have been able to do a better job of getting under it, but if Anger gets a better trajectory, it's not a problem either way.
The bottom line is that Anger needs to be more consistent. He has all the leg power in the world; he just needs to work on his 'touch', so to speak. Don't get me wrong, there were a lot of things that were bad on Sunday, and Anger was hardly the main reason for the loss. However, he needs to help put the team in a better situation when he's on the field. Right now he is too inconsistent to be considered 'reliable', especially for a guy drafted in the third round.

Product Information
- Tales to Play Clifford the Big Red Dog Be a Good Friend Game from Patch Products
- Part of the Tales to Play brand
- We recommend this product for ages 3 and up
What It Is
Favorite books come to life in the Tales to Play line of games based on classic children's books. The games come in packaging that resembles a big book, and each game includes 3-D accessories and pawns in the shape of favorite characters.
In the Clifford the Big Red Dog Be a Good Friend Game, players collect bones and count up the most points to win. Take turns spinning the Clifford spinner and moving or taking bones, depending on what Clifford's tail points to. If the tail points to a colored space, move your dog pawn forward on the game board to the next space of that color. If that color is the same color as your dog bowl, take a bone and put it in your bowl.
If the tail points to a picture of Clifford, draw a card. If you draw a Clifford card, you lose one of your bones. If you draw a Cleo, T-Bone, Mac, or Mimi Card, you help the player with that character pawn by giving them a bone. Then you can take another for yourself.
When all the bones have been taken, the player with the most bones wins.
The game comes with four dog pawns (Cleo, T-Bone, Mac, and Mimi), a Clifford spinner, 25 bones, 24 cards, and a game board. It is for two to four players.
Is It Fun?
The Clifford the Big Red Dog Be a Good Friend Game is all about collecting and sharing bones. It encourages kids to share and play together. Because the game does end with a winner, there is still a bit of competitiveness to the game. The game also helps preschoolers with their color matching skills.
Who It's For
Tales to Play Clifford the Big Red Dog Be a Good Friend Game is for ages 3 and up.
What To Be Aware Of
For a shorter game, play with fewer bones.

Prince William, Kate Middleton planning 2014 royal baby tour
Kate Middleton and Prince William don't plan on making the world wait very long to see their newborn child. In fact, they're already planning a royal baby tour for Spring 2014.
According to Us Weekly, the tour won't be relegated just to the United Kingdom. Sources say the trip is planned for Australia and New Zealand.
"While it is a deeply personal and private event, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge realize this is a time of national celebration and that there will be vast interest in the baby," a spokesman tells Us. "They realize many people will want to share in their happiness."
Middleton is expected to give birth on July 11, though with all pregnancies that date is not set in stone. William is slated to take two weeks of paternity leave from the Royal Air Force after he and his wife welcome their first child. The royal baby will be the Prince or Princess of Cambridge.

Pedro's progress: Righty regains health
Veteran feels no soreness after tossing six frames on Tuesday
SAN FRANCISCO -- It was the morning after the night before, but only in name. All had gone well on Tuesday night. Pedro Martinez had pitched, almost perspired and prospered. And by the time he returned to AT&T Park on Wednesday morning, he had experienced no hangover symptoms. He threw 109 pitches in anger over six innings, having thrown none in the previous 61 days. And he was pleased to say his 36-year-old muscles had responded well to the strain.
"Very good, actually," Martinez said as the Mets gathered for the final game of their series against the Giants. "A lot better than I thought. I'm not even sore, at least not yet."
That characterization was likely to change quickly. Martinez works out strenuously the day after he pitches.
"Today is a dog day, a hard day," Martinez said.
The left hamstring strain that had interrupted his fourth Mets season hadn't been an issue on Tuesday night, but he was aware of the possibility that an injury to any body part could sabotage him.
"When that happened [April 1 in his first start], it came out of nowhere," he said. "I thought I understood my mechanics completely. But now I know I can't really say 'I'm going to be healthy.'"

|John Maine
|Pedro Martinez
|Mike Pelfrey

|Johan Santana
|Claudio Vargas
He recalled throwing the curve that preceded -- and perhaps prompted -- the injury. He had tried to do more with that pitch.
"But not that much more," he said. "I never had that happen before."
But he never has been 36 before, either.
But no comparable scenario developed on Tuesday, and Martinez produced his 28th victory in 61 starts with the Mets. He has lost 17 times. The Mets' record in his career starts with them is 32-29.

text: First off, what a win for my Broncos. After the game I listen to analysts and instead of saying the Broncos earned that win, they say well the Steelers had injuries. Let's not forget we had injuries of our own, our all pro defensive safety Brian Dawkins, starting right guard Kris Kuper, leading wide receiver Eric Decker, all of whom were huge contributors to the success of this team. No team in the playoffs is 100% healthy, so let's not use that as an excuse. We travel to New England next week and will be huge under dogs, I know we got beat by the Pats already. I like what I saw in that first game, if we don't turn the ball over so many times we have a great shot. We need to capitalize on every drive and put up some points. I for one can not wait for the Broncos, to prove more people wrong. GO BRONCOS!!!!!

I like so many others, have fond memories of my childhood days and sitting on the strongest smartest lap of anyone I knew (my granddad) while he farmed his fields with a little red farmall cub tractor. I recently purchased a 61' according to the serial number and it has been a dream come true for me to finally own one.
I would like to say a very big thanks to all who have made this site and to Rudi for making all the information available that he has via the web. I have over the last 5 weeks used these sites and your postings to get my cub in decent running shape. I have overhauled the final drives, and worked out many bugs using all the postings, with the fuel system, timing, electrical, etc. and I could not have done it without all of you. So again I say thanks!
I managed yesterday to break up about an acre of ground using my 152 disk plow for a garden that we hope to plant soon, and I must say that it was very satisfying, not to mention just down right fun!
I am in no way a perfectionist, nor a purist, and neither is my cub. The seireial number shows a 61' like I said, and the hood is not. The truth be told I will probably never restore it to it's origianl condition, but it is still a cub. And I do plan to refurbish it. I see what all the attraction is to these little machines, they are just plain ole fun to own and operate.
I have met and dealt with some of the greatest and nicest folks since I bought my cub. Don Eicher, his wife and brother in law Jerry from DE Farmall Cubs, and Tom and Lynn from TM Tractor parts have all been a great help and pleasure, and to them I say a special thanks.
I own a 51 Ford 8N that has been completely restored, and a Kubota L3830 that I do most of the work with around the place, but I can honestly say this little red cub will be my pride and joy. I work two jobs and this is just what the doctor ordered for a great way to relieve stress.
I look forward to chatting with, and maybe meeting some more great folks because of such a great common interest.
Regards, and best wishes from Louisiana

United Boomers of America appreciates and supports ANY program that helps returning veterans re-enter what is certainly a challenging workplace. However, while the current media is patting themselves on the back for joining the Chamber of Commerce in assisting the Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, the UBA community wants to once again express frustration and aggravation that veterans of previous wars don't seem to warrant equal effort with a highly publicized national project.
UBA has chosen the Viet Nam Veterans of America organization as our social giveback. My foster brother was shot up in the Mekong Delta and eventually died from complications caused by the wounds. It sickens me when I think about how these veterans were treated when they returned, and never forgetting that time is a good thing for us all. While reading a recent post from Bruce Krasting, titled Heroes, published February 10, 2012, I was so moved by Eddie's story that I wanted to share some of it with you:
'I know a man. Call him Eddie. He's African American, going on about 63. When he was a boy he had no real home or much education, so when he was eighteen he took the only option available to him. He joined the military. That was 1967. He must have been a hell of a soldier. He ended up in the Army's 1st Cavalry Division – one of the toughest outfits around.
In February of 1968 he fought in the battle of Hue during the Tet offensive. He was in non-stop firefights for three weeks. He said half his platoon were killed or wounded. He told me about the time he held onto a fellow soldier, while he bled to death from a sniper round through the throat.
After the Tet Offensive his tour was up, but for some stupid reason (probably a few thousand dollars) he did a second tour. In April of 1968 he went back "up country" with the 1st Cav. This time he fought in the A Shau Valley (referred to at the time as the "Valley of Death"). The fighting was as intense as any combat in history. Eddie once talked of the time that he spent a night in a bomb crater with two dead comrades while the Viet Cong were shooting AK47s with green tracers over his head. He also talked about killing the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. His buddies did the same.
Eddie walked away from the war he was sent to fight, but he was a broken man. He has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). He has never been able to function properly. He is afraid of everything. On the Fourth of July he has to be sedated. He's terrified by the noise of the fireworks. The Army never questioned that he was damaged goods, and that it was his time in battle that was responsible. They gave him antidepressants; after a while he got a half disability pension. Life was just a struggle. Eight years ago I (Bruce) banged on a bunch of doors and helped him get a full disability pension. He's okay these days, sort of.'
I bring up Eddie's story in connection with a new report from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Almost one in four (21%) of our soldiers are coming home with PTSD. The CBO attempts to come up with a price for this. By its calculation, it costs an average of $10,000 per year for each soldier with PTSD. For how long? The CBO reports that 80+% of those with PTSD were still in need of treatment after four years. For Eddie, it's been forty plus years now. Of course the CBO numbers don't measure the real cost. What is the cost of a busted life?
"I watched my brother wither away as jungle rot infections started at the bullet holes and spread throughout his body. Can we put a $10,000 per year price on his life? Like Eddie, he fought to keep America free, and we all owe vets a debt that can never be fully paid.
As our elected officials in Washington consider our future economic responsibilities, let's remind them that before we send millions to foreign military, we should fulfill our responsibilities to our own military – past and present. We have many choices to replace soldiers with technology in the future. We only have those choices because millions of previous vets stepped up and said they were willing to go fight so we could have those future choices. UBA is dedicated to helping the very ones who gave us the opportunity to help. Thanks Vets!

July 29, 2004
Albany -- Lumber, concrete, and steel costs continue to rise. But soaring prices aren't keeping South Georgians from building new homes. And that is good news for the economy.
An eight thousand square foot home being built at the Lakes at Quail Hollow. It is one of five new homes, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars each, under construction in the new subdivision. Steve Glover, of Glover Custom Homes said "We've been blessed, our industry is doing well."
As the price of building materials make this home rise, the final cost of the house could go up by as much as ten cents a square foot over one year ago. The price of steel is soaring. Glover said " China is buying about everything they put their hands on in the steel industry. So we are seeing a little bit of a shortage in that. Our rebarb costs have tripled."
Still Glover gets calls weekly from new customers wanting homes built. He says people want to take advantage of low interest rates.
Glover said "We hear a lot of stuff about the economy is not doing well, but in our industry it's not true. We are doing real well. And somebody's got to be paying the money to build the houses, so obviously there are other facets that are doing just as well as we are."
Concrete costs have risen twelve percent in two months. Lumber prices have actually come down slightly in recent weeks, but earlier this year the cost of lumber, especially plywood, skyrocketed to all time highs.

Dolphin are being found in 200 to 400 feet straight out the Inlet hitting live bait and ballyhoo. Bluefish, jacks, and a few pompano are being caught off area beaches. Mangrove snapper and sandperch continue to hit both live and frozen shrimp along the seawall.
Freshwater Lakes
The Ida and Osborne chain has been full of small bass around most of its edges. Bass are hitting on live shad and shiners among grass beds and vegetation where the water clarity is better. Peacock bass are being caught on live shad around area bridges and deeper holes throughout the chain with Rat-L-Traps and small crankbaits working for artificial baits.
Lake Okeechobee
Pelican Bay has clear water and decent-sized bass hitting plastic worms and spinner baits near lillypads. Largemouth bass are being found in good numbers averaging 2 to 4 pounds. Bluegill continue to be caught in clear water throughout the rim canal and along many of the open water area flats. Crickets, minnows and jigs are excellent baits for enticing speckled perch to strike. Lake levels are currently at 14.45 feet above sea level.

Stevie Gill
Women's Soccer Head Coach - 6th year (44-40-9)
Stevie Gill was named head coach of the Grand Canyon University women's soccer program in March of 2008 after serving as an assistant coach for six years, two of them with the men's program at GCU.
Gill captained the 1996 GCU men's soccer team that was inducted into the 2010 Grand Canyon University Hall of Fame after winning the program's lone Division II National Championship title. Gill also received the prestigious Dr. Roland L. Beck Senior Scholar Athlete Award for demonstrating excellence in academics, athletics, leadership, and Christian character.
Gill has guided the 'Lopes to three consecutive winning seasons, posting a 29-18-6 overall mark in that time.
The 2011 season was a historic year for the women's soccer program as Gill took the squad to their first ever NCAA playoff berth in the history of the 16-year program with a Pacific West Conference record of 8-2-2.
The 2010 season was also a great year for the Grand Canyon University women's soccer team as the Antelopes finished with a record of 11-5-1 overall, 9-4-1 in the PacWest Conference, and were ranked No. 9 in the West Region in both the final regular-season NCAA Division II poll and the final regular-season National Soccer Coaches Association of America vote. The team had a school record .688 winning percentage, .004 higher than the old record of .684 set in 2005.
In 2009, Gill led the 'Lopes to a record of 9-9-2 overall, 6-6-2 in the PacWest Conference. They finished the season ranked No. 8 in the official NCAA Division II West Region poll – a first for the GCU women's soccer program. The 'Lopes also listed six All-Conference selections during the season. In addition to their on-field accomplishments, Gill's players have also been consistently among the top academic programs with one of the highest cumulative GPA's at the school.
Gill has developed a reputation for bringing in some of the best local, national and international talent. Among the many is two-time Pacific West Conference "Player of the Year" Award and Serbian World Cup Team member, Marina Nesic.
Gill previously coached in the Canadian Professional Soccer League and was the head boys coach for Durham Regional Soccer Association's Provincial/National Team Identification program in Canada. He was also the Director of Soccer-Tech International Inc. that provided high-performance training to athletes in Toronto, Canada. Gill holds a "B" License from the Canadian Soccer Association.
As a player and four-year student-athlete at Grand Canyon University, Gill was a Far West Region selection and was also a California Collegiate Athletic Association choice while winning two California Conference Athletic Association championships during his days as an Antelope. He was a four-year captain at Grand Canyon.
Gill also played for Canada's National Teams at the U-20 and U-23 Olympic/Pan American Games in World Cup Qualifying and Pan-American Games International competitions throughout the world including Cuba, England, Italy, France, Jamaica, Mexico and Scotland. Gill also won three Canadian National Championships with the Ontario Provincial Teams at the U-15, U-16 and U-17 age groups.
Gill graduated Summa Cum Laude from Grand Canyon University with a 3.94 cumulative GPA from the Exercise Science Department in May of 2000. Gill also went on to complete his marketing concentration at Staffordshire University in Stoke-on-Trent, England. He continued his education in Canada at the prestigious York University in Toronto, Canada with a Bachelor's degree in Education and finally earning his MBA from Grand Canyon University's College of Business in 2005. Gill continues to teach in GCU's prominent College of Arts and Sciences specializing in Physical Education and Instructional Strategies.
Originally from Toronto, Gill now lives in Phoenix with his wife Kristen and son, Viggo.

By NH State Representative Mike Kappler
Carriage Towne News
---- —
RAYMOND —Well, the 2011-12 legislative term is over, and effective on December 5, the new legislators were sworn in and the new 2013-14 term began. It will be a different House this time. As it looks now, the House will be made up of about 220 Democrats and 180 Republicans, which will require people to work together more with those from the other side of the aisle. I see many close votes coming on a number of issues.
Recently, there were over three days spent on presentations at the Governor's Fiscal Year 2014-15 Operating Budget public hearings. The law that we passed in 2011 requiring the agencies to submit a budget, and then a second budget with a spending level 10% below their current budget, was basically ignored. The three days worth of their wishes came in at about $3.3 Billion, an increase of 26% over current spending levels. The worse agency was Health and Human Services, asking for an increase of $321M or 29%.
The Finance Committee in both the House and Senate will be very busy, burning many a night light, trying to come up with an acceptable budget that both chambers will pass. They really have their work cut out for them this time. Our new Governor will be giving the joint session of the legislature her version of the new budget on February 15, then the House Finance Committee will be getting to work, hopefully sending it to the Senate in mid April.
One thing they have to do is keep an eye on revenue coming in to see how this budget ends up on June 30.
On the lighter side, at the County level, we should be in good shape to continue keeping our County taxes down. We have a strong team of dedicated County workers, and a Delegation that works well with them.

News TBS Acknowledges Tonari no 801-chan's Cancellation
posted on 2008-08-29 06:53 EDT
The Japanese broadcasting station TBS has posted a notice on its webpage for the TBS Anime Festa 2008 event that acknowledges that the Tonari no 801-chan anime series has been cancelled. TBS Anime Festa 2008 unveiled the project during the August 16-17 weekend, although early copies of the third volume of Ajiko Kojima's Tonari no 801-chan manga revealed the news already. The original manga centers on an fujoshi (female boys-love otaku), her personal life, and her otaku boyfriend. No reason was given for the anime cancellation, but TBS apologized to those who were anticipating the anime and asked for their understanding.
Thank you to dormcat for the news tip.

1'Glee's Will Schuester Didn't Know That Finn Needed Rehab
Matthew Morrison is the most boring fucker on the planet who – if his interviews are anything to go by – thinks rather highly of himself. He also apparently takes his Glee character way too seriously and wants to capitalise on co-star Cory Monteith's recent rehab stint by publicly chastising himself for not recognising that the younger actor needed help. Because, you know, he's actually Finn and you're actually Will Scheuster and you're his mentor and Glee is real life and… ugh, shut up.
From Reveal (via DS):
Asked by Reveal if he'd spoken to Monteith since he left rehab in April, Morrison replied: "I haven't actually… but I heard from Lea he's doing really well and I wish him all the best.
"He's a terrific guy. I didn't even know what was going on as he's so professional at work.
"He and Lea make a great couple. They have what it takes to last. I will sing at their wedding."
June 11, 2013 at 10:30 am by Jennifer
One Response to "'Glee's Will Schuester Didn't Know That Finn Needed Rehab"
Yet again, Jennifer takes a quote and goes off on something that was not only not said, but also not even remotely implied. How is "I didn't even know what was going on as he's so professional" publicly chastising himself? He just said that the guy maintained his professionalism.

Central Florida is on top of the AAC, and will look to keep it that way when they travel to face lowly Temple on Saturday afternoon.
The Knights have just one loss this season -- a three-pointer to South Carolina -- and are hoping to stake a claim to a BCS spot. In a weak AAC, however, they may need some help. UCF already beat Louisville, and only have one quality opponent (Rutgers) left on the schedule.
Temple has struggled under first-year head coach Matt Rhule, with only a win over Army to its name. The Owls lost to FCS school Fordham and near-FCS school Idaho and are so far winless in AAC play.
The numbers
Rankings and records: UCF is ranked No. 17 in the latest BCS Standings, and is first in the AAC. Temple is one of three AAC teams winless in conference play. This is the first meeting between the two schools.
Vegas: UCF is a 16.5-point favorite. The over/under opened at 55.
Weather: High 50s and mostly sunny.
Three names to know
Storm Johnson. Entry number one to the all-name team from UCF, Johnson is averaging five yards per carry and has scored 12 total touchdowns this year.
Blake Bortles. Entry number two to the all-name team from UCF, Bortles has thrown for 15 touchdowns this year and is really starting to come into his own as a quarterback.
P.J. Walker. The true freshman took over Temple's quarterback job midway through the season, and has done a very good job. He's thrown for 11 touchdowns against five interceptions in six games, is averaging 8.5 yards per attempt, and has a bright future with the Owls.
Two things at stake
UCF is still hoping for a BCS bid, and a loss to Temple would put a dent in those chances.
Year one under Matt Rhule has been a bad one for Temple. A win over UCF would change the tone.
How to witness
TV: ESPN Regional.
Radio: Here's a list of affiliates for Central Florida. For Temple, tune in to WPHT 1210 AM.
Online streaming: ESPN3.

Welcome signs are in place and around 70 volunteers are ready at Austin Bergstrom International Airport to help visitors in for the Formula One race weekend.
More planes will touch down Thursday bringing thousands into Austin. It will likely be the busiest day for arrivals ahead of the race weekend.
Nearly 36,000 people are expected to pass through the terminal at ABIA— a crowd that size is comparable to what the airport sees the day before Thanksgiving.
Airport officials are ready. Customs has expanded to accommodate international travelers and to help with the lines a fourth, temporary, checkpoint is now operational. TSA will be sending extra screeners to help move passengers through.
The airport issued 240 permits for charter and private planes which range from small single engine planes to a 757. Exactly 58 of those flights are coming from another country with the majority from Mexico.
If you're flying out of town at any point during the weekend the airport strongly advises arriving in the terminal at least two hours before your flight departs.
"Take into consideration the roadways coming to the airport. We'll be able to get you through but you need to consider your commute because there will be a lot of people in town," said Jim Halbrook, an airport spokesperson.
Longer than usual security lines are expected Sunday and Monday as race fans leave. Some of the charter flights will leave Sunday evening for Brazil where the next Grand Prix race will take place.
The busy travel day for Thanksgiving will be Wednesday.

Tower Theatre
976-982 East Main Street,
Santa Paula,
No one has favorited this theater yet
Showing 8 comments
It was the Columbia in 1930, according to this LA Times ad:
We drove around Santa Paula yesterday. It's an interesting little town. Here is a picture of the Tower:
According to this 2007 post in the Santa Paula blog, the seats were removed from the Tower and the floor leveled sometime around 1993. The building is owned by the city of Santa Paula and the city's plan is to have a retail shop or a restaurant in the building.
In a July, 2007 article in the Ventura County Star, City Manager Wally Bobkiewicz was quoted as saying of the 1926 structure that "It's not a historic building and it can't be used as a theatre anymore." He added "The only use it's had is the 1950s neon marquee, where we put holiday messages at Christmas." Maybe that signals an intent by the city to save the marquee. But the last I heard the building is still vacant.
Has Anybody seen it latley or know whats happen to the tower?
I was just wondering i maybe in that area in the next couple of day and was wondering if it was worth a look?
Here is a 1980 photo from the LAPL:
There is (or was) a Tower Theater in Willows, CA. It should be added if it isn't here under another name. Here is a picture from the UC Davis Collection:
On a recent trip on the Filmore and Santa Paula Railway from Filmore to Santa Paula I had the opportunity to walk along Main Street in Santa Paula during the hour lay over. During the stay I noticed the Tower Theatre. The marquee was still intact but the entrance was entirely boarded up. There is not much to see of the theater but the train trip was enjoyable.
This theatre was renamed the Columbia sometime before April of 1931. The April 17th, 1931 issue of Southwest Builder and Contractor tells of a remodeling of the Columbia Theatre in Santa Paula, which had just been purchased by a Mr. J. Leslie Asher. New drapes, seats, projection and sound equipment were to be installed.

Carlton and Reay put in dominant performances in swimming gala
10:00am Thursday 22nd November 2012 in Sport By Scott Kirk, Reporter
KENDAL Swimming Club's latest round of Club Championships was dominated by two swimmers – Nicholas Carlton and Emily Reay.
The Gala opened with the individual medleys. and in the ladies final, fastest qualifier Reay got off to a great start at butterfly.
She put herself ahead of Laura Garrick and the greatly improved Brodie Swallow and she wound it up in front crawl to storm to a brilliant win, with Garrick silver and Swallow bronze.
Reay, 12, also took the Girls U14 Championship ahead of Swallow and Ruby Vernon, setting a new record time of 1:14.73 in the process.
The gents final was in similar vein with Carlton's all-round ability and skill contributing to an outstanding win ahead of Crispin Halcrow and Harry Denney.
The Boys U14 trophy went to Daniel Armstrong with Christopher Stainton second and Gregor Rothwell third.
The breaststroke 50m sprints proved highly popular, attracting more than 60 entries. The Girls U11 race had nine-year-old Megan Jones displaying outstanding skill to make all over Erin Bagge and Emily Westmorland respectively.
Ollie Sergeant had to pull out all the stops to win the boys trophy. Saving his best for the final length he triumphed in a storming finish ahead of Louie Tideswell and Ruben Swallow.
The open age groups brought a magnificent personal best from Lauren Domville, who drove her way to the finish for a well-deserved win over Rosie Rawlinson and Roisin Bagge, while Liam Bagge engaged in a titanic battle with Carlton, driving his way to the finish and just touching out his challenger for the win.
Another large entry took on the gruelling 400m freestyle, and again it was Reay who produced a dazzling display to surge into the lead and hold off all her challengers to win the ladies championship from Garrick and Roisin Bagge.
The gents championship however had one leader, Carlton, with four others chasing, shoulder to shoulder. Holding his nerve Carlton took gold in style for his second trophy of the evening. A blanket finish for the others took Bagge to silver with the bronze going to Halcrow.
Other fine efforts came from Abigail Thornley and Louie Tideswell at 25m freestyle.

text: Josh Davis narrowed his choices to Gonzaga and San Diego State. Take it for what its worth and possibly with a grain of salt. But apparently we aren't out of the mix for Davis yet. I am sure he is waiting to see how Moser's coming visit goes before making his final decision. It is interesting to see we are still in the mix for a player that many had thought was off the table.

Docs in EEOC Case Detail 12-Year Pay Battle Between Onetime 'Life Partner' and Kelley Drye
Posted Apr 3, 2012 4:55 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
As a pay battle between an 81-year-old labor and employment partner of Kelley Drye & Warren and the law firm nears its 12th anniversary, documents released Monday pursuant to a federal court order detail some of the issues in the age discrimination case.
Arguing that he was being treated unfairly by being forced to become a "life partner" at age 70 or so and then paid less than he would have been if evaluated on the $2.3 million in collections he said he had brought in that year, Eugene D'Ablemont wondered in "what may or may not be a sarcastic tone," the Am Law Daily reported, in a December 2000 memo if he would get a bonus, or if his wife would have to continue to wear her "threadbare cloth coat."
The firm has since changed its policy, and old partners are no longer required to change their status at a given age. Hence, D'Ablemont is listed as a partner on the firm's attorney roster.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has championed D'Ablemont's cause, and the Manhattan federal district court case reportedly appeared to be nearing a settlement earlier this month.
